Mariehamn, Southern Finland
A group of soldiers surrounded Mariehamn. A major general officer stood with a white man in a white suit.
"Mr. Devin, how long will it take for your ship to arrive?"
General Makinen looked at the time. It was already past nine in the evening, but there was no movement at all outside the port, which made him a little irritated.
Because this batch of weapons was so important, the Ministry of National Defense specially sent him, a major general, to receive it.
"General Makinen, don't worry! They will arrive soon. Isn't it still twenty minutes before the agreed time?"
This white man is also an expatriate of Galaxy Company, named Devin.
"Okay! Looks like I have to wait a little longer in the cold wind!"
Makinen said with some complaints that winter in Finland is very cold. Although he is a local and suffers from such terrible weather every year, it does not mean that he is not afraid of the cold.
"Hey! General Makinen, don't be like this. If you say this, I will feel even colder!"
Diwen smiled, he made a lot of money from his first arms transaction with Finland. All these weapons and equipment were taken out from the system by Zhou Weiguo.
Since Zhou Weiguo became the supreme leader, the system has changed.
In the past, when receiving weapons, there was a certain establishment scale.
For example, when I was a brigade commander, I could only receive it for free according to his establishment.
But now it¡¯s not the case anymore, you can get whatever you want. So these weapons are almost all net profit.
"Sorry! I forgot that you are not a local!"
Makinen shrugged and said helplessly.
The two of them were talking like this without saying a word. After a while, a cargo ship began to slowly sail into the port.
Makinen and Devin both breathed a sigh of relief, finally arriving. "
"Damn! I will never accept the mission here again next time! It's really too cold here!"
Devin couldn¡¯t help complaining after seeing the freighter sailing into the port.
On December 4, 1939, Zhou Weiguo officially announced the appointment of Baldhead and the others.
And the appointment was just as Zhou Weiguo said before, Bald was appointed as the Vice President of the Government Affairs Council and began to manage the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Culture.
Zhou Jixian is the president of the Government Affairs Council, and Zhou Gen is the president and secretary-general of the Government Affairs Council, carrying out actual management of the Government Affairs Council.
As for the generals under the bald head, Zhou Weiguo made no arrangements for the time being and asked them to wait for his message.
December 5th, Jingnan, Military Academy, Supreme Command, Office of Zhou Weiguo
"Shen Chengzhang, a humble official, has met sir!"
Shen Chengzhang, the former naval commander of the Northeast Army, and later the commander of Dongshan Security.
He can also be said to be an important figure in the navy during this period in history.
The navy under his leadership is different from that of Chen Houfu. Chen Houfu's Fujian navy was influenced by Ji Li Lao, so his usual words and deeds will have a touch of aristocratic sails.
But he was deeply influenced by the Japanese navy, so he always talks about Baga Yalu being brave and good at fighting, and the two factions they represent are also different.
He is a typical giant ship and cannon man, and Chen Houfu is a typical aircraft carrier faction.
Zhou Weiguo looked up at this controversial figure in history.
"Sit down! You don't have to be so polite when you come here."
Zhou Weiguo smiled and asked him to sit down.
After he sat down, Zhou Weiguo said, "Are you still used to living in Jingnan during this period?"
"Mr. Report, I am very used to living in a humble position!"
Zhou Weiguo nodded, he was just asking these questions to make pleasantries.
"I came to you today for something. I know your abilities and your desire for the navy.
Now we are also vigorously developing the navy. You can rest in Jingnan for a few more days. Then he went to Zhoushan Islands to report and temporarily served as Chen Houfu's deputy. "
Zhou Weiguo paused here before continuing: "Currently, the Zhoushan Islands are still undergoing major construction. The plan of our Supreme Command and the Navy is to build the Zhoushan Islands into our naval base.
At the same time, its goal is to build it into a naval shipbuilding base. I believe you have heard about its geographical location before. This place is very important to us. Where is Chen Houfu alone now???Busy, but his energy is limited after all.
"After you go there, you will temporarily take charge of the construction of the sea-based airport and the construction of other warehouses. Regarding the construction of the ship manufacturing base, Chen Houfu is in charge, so don't interfere with this yet.
There is also the problem of sailors. Now we are very short of sailors. The last expansion of our navy has used almost all the sailors, so we can barely maintain the operation of this fleet. But this is not enough. As a big country in Asia, we also have a long coastline. In this era of war, we need a powerful fleet.
The current strength of the fleet does not seem to be weak, but in fact it is still very weak.
Originally, my plan was to form a maritime fleet based on Vladivostok, a Yellow Sea Fleet based on Qingdao, an East China Sea Fleet based on Zhoushan, and a Hainan Fleet based on Hainan.
But because our naval foundation is too weak, all this is still in the plan, and the naval base in Vladivostok only exists in the plan.
So when you go there this time, your task is to expand the team of sailors and prepare for the next squadron of the Navy! "
Zhou Weiguo said so much, he was also telling Shen Chengzhang about his current mission, and at the same time, he was also warning him not to make any small moves.
"Compared with Chen Houfu's ignorance of the political situation, Shen Chengzhang is not very honest.
Chen Houfu¡¯s development of the navy is based on the development of the navy. This can be seen from history. In order to develop the navy and eliminate the shortcomings in the navy, Chen Houfu first started with his own Fujian navy.
"But Shen Chengzhang is very active in politics. In order to gain control of the navy, things like the Laoshan Incident happened.
That¡¯s why Zhou Weiguo warned him like this.
"Yes! Sir, please rest assured!"
Shen Chengzhang heard what Zhou Weiguo meant. In fact, he didn't dare to play the tricks he did before.
Because he surrendered with Chongqing, he should be cautious.
If he offends anyone, or makes Zhou Weiguo¡¯s close generals look down on him, he will be the one to suffer!
"Well! Go down! Remember my words, don't let me down!"
