Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2492 This time we bet on the alliance

Melbourne, airport.

The Blue Horse landed slowly and then, driven by a tractor, headed for the parking point.

Huo Sheng and Chang Kong leaned back in their chairs, looking relaxed.

But they did not let their guard down.

If possible, they would prefer to return immediately.

Because the longer you stay here, the greater the chance of something unexpected happening.

"Old Huo, I'll go down in a while, you stay on the plane."

Chang Kong spoke and took out the box behind the driver's seat.

Huo Sheng nodded, then opened his anti-gravity suit and took out a letter from his chest.

"Leave this to the girls on the women's volleyball team."

Chang Kong took it.

The plane slowly stopped, and a group of people came down below. The two people on top saw several familiar faces below.

There were a large number of guards around, as well as reporters who were stopped not far away.

Huo Sheng's spirit became tense again.

"Vicente, this is our plane."

Liu Wei was very proud. Although it was the first time he saw this plane, the five-pointed star on the plane looked familiar to him.

"How is it? Isn't it beautiful?"

Vicente nodded woodenly.

He knows more than Liu Wei, a Chinese.

It is no exaggeration to say that the plane in front of us is the best plane.

If, if they had such an airplane in Mo City, would they still have to worry about the evil neighbor to the north?

For a moment, he wanted to keep the plane and take it apart to study it.

I believe that the domestic aviation manufacturing industry will make great progress.

But as soon as this thought came to his mind, it was kicked out of his head.

Nothing else, I can't afford to offend.

Not to mention whether we can keep the plane, there might be a mushroom egg hidden inside the plane, which would cause a mushroom cloud.

Even the alliance behind them is not something they can provoke at will.

Now, they are stuck in the middle and have a reason to exist. If they really hate one side, they will definitely turn to the other side for protection.

It’s just that this protection doesn’t come for free.

Just look at the territory they have lost and you will know that the evil neighbor to the north is a ruthless person.

So, the idea was quickly dismissed.

Another thought took its place.

He remembered that he seemed to have heard a piece of news that China helped the desert camels design a new type of aircraft.

Although the performance of this aircraft is unclear, but seeing the Blue Horse in front of us, we know that China’s aircraft production capacity is not low.

If we cooperate with China, can we develop this kind of aircraft?

Even if we can't make the best one, it's better than the outdated swords we use now.

I immediately decided to have a good talk with my boss when I got back.

Liu Wei did not pay attention to the change in Vincent's expression, but rushed over quickly after the plane stopped.

Huo Sheng and Chang Kong opened the cockpit and looked at the few people who rushed over first.

"Comrades, comrades, hello, you have worked hard!"

Hearing the familiar voice, the two smiled happily, and then Huo Sheng said, "Who among you is Captain Liu?"

Liu Wei immediately raised his hand, "I am Liu Wei, the captain of this delegation."

"Hello, Captain Liu!"

As Huo Sheng spoke, he looked at Liu Wei's appearance and expression. After comparing it with the description in his mind, he confirmed that the person was Liu Wei.

Then the airport staff pushed over a ladder and Chang Kong walked down from the plane with a wooden box in his hands.

Liu Wei quickly led his men forward to take it.

"Captain Liu, I'm Chang Kong."

"This is our mission objective. Please check and confirm."

Chang Kong spoke formally, and his expression was even more serious.

Liu Wei immediately took a deep breath and held it with both hands. The accompanying personnel also came forward to help.

As the box opened, two records were revealed, along with a stack of bright red flags.

Liu Wei took out the red flag carefully with trembling hands, and then slowly opened it.

In an instant, the bright red flag appeared in everyone's mind at this moment.

On the plane, Huo Sheng had already stood up, looking at the unfurled red flag and saluted solemnly.

Vincent and others on the side looked at Liu Wei and others who suddenly became solemn. Their gazes stayed on their faces for a moment, then they lowered their heads, feeling inexplicably envious.

I envy them for their belief that is worth sacrificing their lives for.

I envy them for the land they love so deeply.

This scene was recorded by reporters far away.

Perhaps this is also a big news during the Olympics.

The flag was sent from afar. If the other women's volleyball team can win this time, it will definitely be another good story.

"Comrade Changkong, thank you."

Seeing the fatigue on Chang Kong's face, Liu Wei and others were deeply moved.

Then he looked at Huo Sheng on the plane, and the plane that came from afar.

Everyone stepped forward and bowed solemnly.

"By the way, Captain Liu, this is a letter that Yang Xiaotao wrote before we set off. Please pass it on to the girls of the women's volleyball team."

"This contains Yang Bu's encouragement to the girls. He also said that he hopes the comrades can put in 120% of their energy to win glory for the country, the nation and the nine departments."

Having said that, Chang Kong solemnly handed the letter to Liu Wei.

Liu Wei took the letter and felt the deep love again.

"Don't worry, we will definitely convey it."

After saying that, Liu Wei introduced Vincent next to him.

Chang Kong was naturally polite.

Afterwards, Changkong, accompanied by Vicente and two team members, went to solve his personal problems.

As for Liu Wei, he stayed beside the plane, firstly to talk to Huo Sheng, and secondly to help look after the plane.

The airport's logistics staff wanted to go forward to inspect the plane, but were rejected by Huo Sheng.

Later, these people stopped forcing it and drove a refueling truck to refuel the plane.

Fifteen minutes later, Chang Kong came back and Huo Sheng came down.

Outside the airport, in darkness.

Smith was leaning against the car, binoculars in hand.

Lawrence stood on the car without putting down the telescope.

In the distance, an airplane was parked quietly under the lights, with many people standing around it.

"Boss, do you want to do it?"

"You know, we still have a say here, and no one here dares to stop us."

"Besides, it's dark now. It's easy to get it if we make proper arrangements."

Smith said seriously.

Even someone like Vincent was somewhat tempted, let alone him?

If the plane is kept, the secrets of its design could be revealed by disassembling it, and even the secret of its high altitude and high speed.

With the United States' strong aviation capabilities, it is only a matter of time before it develops better aircraft.

After Smith finished speaking, Lawrence put down the telescope.

He was silent for a moment, then shook his head.

He could naturally think of the possibilities that Vincent could think of.

If he could be 100% sure of getting a complete plane, he would definitely do it.

Even if it means offending the other party or even falling out with the alliance, it would not hesitate.

Because he knows what the higher-ups need.

As long as there are benefits to be gained, they dare to dismantle even the alliance’s aircraft.

but.
But now, he was not 100% sure.

Just look at the two opposing pilots taking turns to come down and you will know that this matter is by no means as simple as it seems.

The other party must have a countermeasure.

"Forget it, let's go back to sleep."

After thinking for a long time, Lawrence said this and sat back in the car.

As for the situation of the plane, I believe those elite reporters will help them take clearer pictures.

Smith looked at the plane parked under the lights again and shook his head, still unable to accept it.

Why can China build such an aircraft?

The car started and rushed to the hotel. "By the way, have the odds changed again this time?"

Lawrence suddenly asked.

Smith nodded immediately, "Yes, it has changed."

"Because the team lost so badly, the voices for the Alliance to win are getting louder and louder. Now the odds have become one to one. As for the other team, it's still one to ten."

“But there are very few people buying it.”

Speaking of gambling, Smith suddenly became excited.

The plane belongs to the country, but the money is yours.

Thinking of this, Smith hurriedly said, "Boss, we should buy the league to win, so we will definitely make money."

Lawrence, however, crossed his arms and looked smug.

"I heard from inside sources that they have raised a large sum of money this time, several billion, and they want to earn back the principal and interest."

Hearing this, Smith's hands almost couldn't hold the steering wheel.

"Then, is the dealer willing to take it?"

In his opinion, this is a losing gamble, so why should he be the banker?
Shouldn't we quit right away?

Lawrence sneered, "Not accepting? Do they dare?"

"Do you know how much they earned the last time they lost the game?"

Smith shook his head.

At that time, he directly counted the tens-digit number starting with nine.

With the money they paid in compensation, it is estimated that they can't even earn the top dollar.

"In front of the real crocodiles, they are just bigger shrimps."

"So, they don't dare to refuse at all. Otherwise, they will just wait to be eaten up."

Smith understood that this is how the world of capital is. You can’t play when you want to or leave when you want to.

Especially if you are too full, you should at least spit out a piece of meat before leaving.

"It seems that the world wants to make a comeback this time."

Smith smiled, and Lawrence nodded. "Yeah, it's not easy for them either. They have diseases, earthquakes, and planes flying overhead all the time. They finally save some money, but then they lose it in gambling. Tsk tsk."

Smith felt that his boss was gloating.

The car broke through the darkness and quickly returned to the residence.

After getting off the car, Smith walked towards his residence to call his family again.

Since there is money to be picked up for free, why not pick it up?

Just bend over.

Edo.

The top floor of the tall office building is brightly lit.

From a distance, it was dark all around, except for this place, where there was bright light.

Like a bright light in the dark night, it illuminates the way forward for Wo Island.

"Kono-kun, this is our last chance. If we fail..."

On the sofa, Satake Teru looked worried and solemn. He couldn't help but take off his glasses and wipe them again and again. It was not that the lenses were blurry, but the cold sweat on his head.

They risked everything for this comeback.

House mortgage, car mortgage, bank loan, wife
In short, all that could be raised was raised.

The purpose is to win back the principal with interest.

You know, after the epidemic, the economic situation of the entire Japanese island suffered a severe blow. The originally prosperous momentum was forcibly suppressed, and the economic prosperity period known as the "golden age" in the country was abruptly stopped, and the national income fell sharply.

In fact, last year's revenue was less than a quarter of that in 64.

This is true for the country, and even more so for individuals.

These 'rich people' have seen their funds shrink dramatically.

This is also why they brought people into the casino and chose to place their bets last time.

However, what they didn't expect was that something unexpected happened, which originally seemed to be a very high chance of winning and a sure thing.

Overnight, the number of people jumping off the rooftop exceeded three digits.

Today, the domestic economy is in further trouble, national self-confidence has suffered an unprecedented blow, and the entire island is filled with gloom.

At this time, all they can do is take another gamble to reduce their losses.

Then restore the glory of the nation.

I believe that time will help them heal their wounds and allow more people to forget the past.

So, under the leadership of Kono Jujuro, a group of people gathered together again, pooled their capital, and prepared to enter the game again.

As soon as Satake Teru finished speaking, Ping Youren beside him also nodded.

I always feel uneasy.

However, neither of them said anything. After all, when it comes to gambling, until the final result is known, gamblers will always think they will win.

"After watching today's game, do you think we will lose?"

Kono Jujuro asked calmly while biting a cigar.

As a result, when these words were spoken, everyone in the room immediately became as angry as monkeys.

"Baga, these guys are so shameful that they can't even last an hour."

"All of them deserve to die."

"Especially the coach, damn it, damn it."

Everyone shouted, expressing their inner anger.

In today's game, we lost so miserably, especially in the third game, where we were defeated fifteen to one and almost had our heads shaved. It was a disgrace to the whole world.

After everyone finished speaking, Kono Jujuro put down his cigar and said, "To be honest, Omatsu Hirofumi's coaching ability is still there. The team he led has won many honors. There is no doubt about that."

"As for why we lost to China, there are many reasons, and we don't need to talk about them."

Everyone was silent.

Anyone who says anything now would be rubbing salt into their wounds.

"But there is one thing we must understand."

"That is, our players are more professional and train harder."

Many people who know volleyball nodded after hearing this. They know volleyball and they know the women's volleyball team members very well.

"So, if such a professional person didn't recover, what makes you think the person on the other side can recover?"

"They are facing an alliance team that is equally tall and strong."

"Will the Alliance lose?"

Kono Jujuro smiled confidently, "How could we lose?"

Hearing this, laughter suddenly broke out in the quiet room.

At this time, Kono Jūrō turned around and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

On the distant sea level, a sun slowly rises, like bright red blood, illuminating the world.

Sijiu City, early morning.

Mr. Peng leaned back in his chair, playing with a chess piece in his hand, and seemed a little distracted.

On the opposite side, Mr. Zhang lowered his head in deep thought, and almost all the black chess pieces on the chessboard were eaten.

"report!"

Suddenly, Wang Minghai's loud voice was heard, interrupting their thoughts, and then he walked up quickly.

Without waiting for the two to ask, he immediately said, "I just received a telegram from Mocheng that Lanju has landed and the gifts have been delivered to the delegation."

"well!"

Bang bang bang bang
Mr. Peng threw the chess piece on the board and shouted loudly.

After a sleepless night, I finally got the good news.

Mr. Zhang even threw the chess pieces aside, stood up and cheered.

When the staff officers in the command room heard the news, they were so happy that they clapped their hands vigorously.

"Come on, mark their tracks for me."

After making sure the plane had landed safely, Mr. Peng quickly went to the map and looked for the plane's trajectory.

Wang Minghai took the command pole and began to explain several refueling locations.

Soon, a line of wool was fixed on the map, and a staff officer was reporting the time, speed, and countries and regions along the flight route.
"Well, call back, thank you for Mocheng's support."

"Also, the return trip must be arranged properly, and the plane must be ensured to return safely."

President Peng smiled more, "As for other things, follow the plan."

"Yes!"

Wang Minghai went to send the message, while Mr. Peng picked up the phone to tell Mr. Chen and others the good news.

Of course, the cost of a round trip is higher than the cost of a Blue Colt.

But it's all worth it.

This trip can not only enhance the country's prestige and show its style, but also test its own strength and make up for its shortcomings.

What are the shortcomings?
Several thoughts flashed through Wang Minghai's mind quickly, "The plane needs to be bigger, and the fuel tank needs to be bigger."

"We also need to solve the communication problem. How can we fly out without knowing where we are going?"

“And this oil?”

After thinking about it, Wang Minghai suddenly realized that there was still a lot to do.
