Age of Rebirth

The world's first radar was successfully developed, and the Huangyadong base area was immersed in a jubilant atmosphere.

Tang Qiuli was keenly aware that this was a huge business opportunity. The country had radar, which was like giving its own airspace a clairvoyance and a wind ear, so that it would no longer have to be passively beaten when dealing with high-altitude fighters. When the explosion was imminent, it was discovered that the enemy's plane was coming.

He had to put the radar production factory in the United States. On the one hand, during the Second World War, the United States had not been attacked by any means, so it could have an absolutely stable production environment without any interference.

On the other hand, China at that time could not manufacture various components of radar. This was a sad decision. Tang Qiuli was extremely willing to wear the glory of the birthplace of the world's first radar on the head of his motherland. Unfortunately, the environment and conditions do not allow it. How can a machine tool be placed safely in the land of China, where gunfire is raging and wars are everywhere? [

He can only do this, it is really a nasty move, and in the United States, by taking advantage of the transcendent position of the United States in the early stage of the war, it can sell radars all over the world. Except for the Japanese pirates and villain countries in Japan, anyone can become their customers , the profit here, described as astonishing, is by no means excessive.

Encouraged by the successful development of the first radar, Wang Xu and his engineers decided to go ahead and produce a few thousand units first. A large number of skilled workers with technical skills were mobilized from the logistics department, and a group of technical backbones were trained.

Then, they found to their embarrassment that in the warehouse of the logistics department of the Huangyadong base, there were no electronic components, electron tubes, transistors, etc. needed for radar production.

The matter was reported to Tang Qiuli. The solution he proposed was very simple. Buy and import a large amount from abroad. The imported quantity must meet the requirements of the manufactured radar, which can be equipped with all anti-aircraft weapons on the Chinese battlefield, and a large amount of inventory must be guaranteed.

Tang Qiuli asked Wang Xu to make a list of what he needed to purchase, and then with a swipe of a pen, he purchased more than double the amount on the list. Did he know that in one or two years, the price of these things would be more than ten times the current price? , and many times, you have money in your hand, but technology cannot buy goods.

The purchase list was transferred to Zhang Quan, the head of the logistics department. He gasped habitually and clicked his mouth. Wang Xu's heart was in his throat. Even the pennies are distressing, not to mention that the amount is so large now, if Zhang Quan disagrees with life or death, or refuses to allocate funds according to the original plan, the teacher will have no choice but to know the temper of this "family tiger".

The independent division can have such strong financial resources now, of course it is Tang Qiuli's way of making money, and Zhang Quan's contribution, in a sense, surpasses Tang Qiuli, and it is precisely because of this that he won the honor of all the independent divisions. The respect and admiration of officers and soldiers.

The amount of appropriation is indeed huge, and Tang Qiuli's far-reaching considerations are involved. To build a factory in the United States, these components must be purchased in advance. Together with the all-out war, they are all hard-to-find treasures. The American factory is not yet profitable. It also depends on the continuous blood transfusion of independent divisions. Once it makes a profit, it will be astronomical.

After Zhang Quan clicked his lips, he looked up at Wang Xu. Wang Xu was very disturbed and asked, "Is that all? Is it possible? How about adding more?"

Whoops, the sun has come out from the west, and this sentence of increasing the budget, this is the first time that "Zhang Bajiahu" has said it. Could it be that the world has changed?Wang Xu almost doubted his ears.

In fact, Zhang Quan also wanted to understand a lot of problems. He found an interesting rule. As long as the teacher spends a large amount of money, he is guaranteed to earn back several times. Now the wealth of the independent teacher is in Zhang Quan's heart. Let alone spending this little money, it is enough to buy the entire city of Beiping, and it is all hard currency, silver dollars and gold.

Zhang Quan immediately arranged to remit money to the United States, and all of this was handed over to the old man Zhu Zixuan who had been in the United States and took care of Tang Qiuli's overseas business.

Tang Qiuli sent another telegram, notifying the old man Zhu Zixuan of the plan to build a factory in the United States in detail, asking him to make preparations as soon as possible, and will send a special person to the United States in the near future. Apply for patent protection for radar in the United States and European countries.

Wang Xu sorted out the technical information on R & D and production of radar in detail, which is about a hundred pages long. Tang Qiuli asked ten soldiers of the special guards who followed him to Germany and Finland to be responsible for the Song technical information to the United States. important task.

Tang Qiuli did not want to follow the name used by the Europeans for the radar. He gave the radar an authentic Chinese name called "Sky Eye Monitoring System". It will change the pattern of world air combat, and it will become the pride of the Chinese people.

When he handed over the task to the ten soldiers of the special guards responsible for sending materials to the United States, he solemnly told them that these things are more important than your lives. Or because of other factors, the data may be lost. You must destroy these materials, and use your lives and the honor of the soldiers as a guarantee to complete the task.

Tang Qiuli had to be more careful. He mainly guarded against Japanese people who were like mad dogs. The Japanese were interested in everything about Tang Qiuli and the independent division.

Using the only "Eye of the Sky" with a rough appearance, the air defense force started a new type of training.

Without target drones, the soldiers made a lot of kites by themselves, and even more ingenious fighters made the kites like real airplanes. Flying movements and using local methods, the soldiers quickly became familiar with the basic operation essentials of Tianyan. [

Tang Qiuli mobilized a large number of building materials from Pingjin, focusing on the establishment of radar stations in two places.

With Dingbian City as the center, within a radius of [-] kilometers, a radar station should be built. The requirement is that there should be no radar blind spots and dead angles, so as to ensure that the Japanese aircraft can be spotted at a distance of [-] kilometers. Adequate preparation time.

Dingbian is his precious heart and soul. There are not only troops, but also civilians, and a large number of newly built industrial and mining enterprises. He does not want Japanese planes to bombard Dingbian indiscriminately, turning Dingbian into a Into ruins and hell on earth.

Therefore, Dingbian is a key air defense area. The air defense corps of the Dingbian Garrison Command is at the brigade level, with eight air defense detachments under its jurisdiction, protecting the sky in Dingbian like an iron bucket.

There is also the Huangya Cave in the center of the Taihang Mountain Base, which is another key target that needs to be protected. Once the Sino-Japanese War starts, Huangya Cave will be within the best range of the air force of the Japanese Army Garrison in North China. The little devil’s plane, I can't stop visiting here often. The Japanese army can't win on the ground, and they have to get it back in the sky. The air battles here are more intense and frequent than other places.

Fortunately, Huangya Cave itself was a pure barracks, there were no civilians, and they were all hidden in the cave. The little devil's planes could not take much advantage. If they were well arranged, they could exhaust the Japanese air force in North China.

With Huangya Cave as the center, within a radius of [-] kilometers, the underground concealed radar station and vehicle-mounted mobile radar are combined to flexibly monitor threats from the air. This place is not comparable to Dingbian. It is located in an area where frequent battles with the Japanese army are established blatantly. Fixed the radar station, wouldn't it provide the Japanese army with a living target.

The matter in Huangyadong came to an end, and Tang Qiuli returned to Beiping, where there were still a lot of government and military affairs waiting for him to deal with. Isn't he still the chairman of the Jicha Political Affairs Committee?

After Huangyadong's reorganization and expansion of the independent division, Tang Qiuli can be said to be strong now, with strong soldiers and strong horses.

There are a total of eight infantry brigades, four artillery brigades (shortly after, three artillery brigades were reorganized according to actual needs), five cavalry brigades, a special warfare detachment, a Huangyadong garrison brigade, and a recruit supplementary brigade , with a total strength of over 14.

If you count the troops of the 29th Army, there are seven cavalry brigades, with more than 17 people. With Tang Qiuli's current strength, he is very sure that at the beginning of the war with the Japanese, he will be able to take the main force of the Japanese army in North China. All were annihilated on the Great North China Plain, and the Japanese invaders' invasion of the whole of China was completely contained in North China, and they could not go south half a step.

After returning to Peiping, Tang Qiuli spent a few days to deal with the government affairs accumulated during this period of time, and finally had time to have a good talk with Shen Jun, the director of the investigation department of the Independent Division who had been staying in Peiping. situation.

Shen Jun has been looking for him many times, but he has never had time. Shen Jun, who is sitting opposite Tang Qiuli, is much thinner than when he left Beiping for Xi'an, and his face is full of exhaustion. The affairs are all on his shoulders alone, one can imagine the pressure in his heart.

Fortunately, the 29th Army was stationed in the Pingjin area. The Japanese garrison in North China was relatively honest during this period and did not make any small moves. Especially after the 29th Army was supplemented by Tang Qiuli, its equipment level was greatly improved, and its heavy firepower was greatly enhanced. In the middle, it formed a deterrent to the Japanese army.

Without the troubles from the Japanese, Shen Jun could devote all his energy to the security and intelligence work in Pingjin and establish an intelligence network covering Pingjin. For an intelligence system, Tang Qiuli's purpose is to have multiple channels for obtaining information, and to verify the authenticity and value of the information.

Since Mei Ting returned to Beiping, she had insisted on resigning from the post of Director of the Inspection Division of the Pingjin Police Headquarters. Tang Qiuli felt very sorry for this girl's talent in detection and intelligence work, and persuaded her many times.

Nai, Mei Ting is determined not to do it. Ever since she formally confirmed her relationship with Tang Qiuli, this girl has shown great dislike for her previous work, and said that if Tang Qiuli forces her, she will As the director of the inspection department, she went back to Nanjing and complained to Chairman Jiang.
