On Wang Xuexin's side, he actually solved another matter incidentally.
As soon as he heard that Mao Xiong had chosen piezoelectric leads, Wang Xuexin immediately asked Sun Erwei: "Skinnai hasn't gotten on the plane yet, has he?"
"Probably not yet!" Sun Erwei looked at the time: "Their flight is scheduled for two hours later. Is there any problem?"
Wang Xuexin replied: "Sun Erwei, if the bear needs a piezoelectric fuze, where do you think it is better to test the piezoelectric fuze?"
Sun Erwei was still a little confused at first. Wasn't this already agreed?
No matter what it is, there are better conditions in Yingjiang, and of course the test is better in Yingjiang...
But then I thought about it and I said "oh" and understood: Although the bazooka rocket launcher used by Yingjiang has the same principle as the rocket launcher, the firing method is different with different calibers. The piezoelectric fuze was tested at Yingjiang and it could not be used immediately.
On the bear's bazooka.
Unless, the bazooka rocket launchers are used to reinforce the bear.
But this obviously consumes a lot of transportation capacity. The rocket launcher is large in size, and the rockets have to be transported. There are also safety issues, moisture problems, etc. along the way.
If we directly develop a piezoelectric fuze that can be used by furry bears, we only need to transport the fuze, which is obviously more efficient and cost-effective.
So far, only the Eighth Route Army's rocket launchers are consistent with Mao Xiong's rocket launchers.
That is to say...
"Damn it!" Sun Erwei said: "I should call Skinner back immediately, otherwise this plan will be delayed for more than ten days!"
This is true. The hump route has not yet been established at this time. It is extremely dangerous for transport planes to cross Mount Everest. It is not a joke to allow talents like Skinner to take risks back and forth, not to mention that Mao Xiong is eager to get piezoelectricity.
fuse.
As a result, Skinner and his party were called back before they even got on the plane.
This made Skinny's subordinates complain, but Skinny felt nothing.
"This may be a good thing, gentlemen!" Skinner said to his subordinates: "This shows that our project is getting more and more attention. Not long ago, it was sitting in the warehouse with no one paying attention!"
Skinner actually wanted to return to China as much as his subordinates, but he also wanted to further develop the performance of rockets. He vaguely felt that Wang Xuexin still had a lot of things to say about rockets. Otherwise, how could he get to the point with just a casual mention?
With the "piezoelectric fuze".
Therefore, Skinner believes that this is not said "casually", but hidden in the heart and only pointed out when it is appropriate or necessary.
As for why Wang Xuexin kept it in his heart, Skinner felt it was understandable.
After all, Wang Xuexin is a Chinese, so of course he must have reservations in technology for the benefit of his country, and Skinny is no exception.
What Skinner didn't understand was how could Wang Xuexin, who had lived in an agricultural country like China since childhood, know so much military technology, and it was still unique from the current point of view.
These had nothing to do with Skinner. Before he left, he was actually worrying about gains and losses: Although he could see his relatives and return to his familiar environment when he returned to China, he probably wouldn't have Wang Xuexin's "waking up" from time to time.
To return or not to return?
Personally, Skinny would prefer to return.
But in terms of national interests, Skinner knew very well that he should not return.
Therefore, Skinny wanted to report several times and request to stay in China, but he was worried that his subordinates would complain about this, so he gave up.
At this time, Sun Erwei Na came and ordered them to return, which was exactly what Skinner wanted.
On the way back, his subordinates complained: "I don't understand what's going on. Is there anything we need to leave behind for the rocket? I think there is no room for improvement!"
"No!" Skinner denied his subordinate's statement: "The rocket may indeed not need improvement, but the rocket... it may also be applied in many places. What we have figured out may be just the tip of the iceberg!"
At this time, the chief of staff had secretly rushed to Yuncheng from the headquarters on a shoulder bag.
The chief of staff organized a small meeting as soon as he arrived in Yuncheng.
The reason why it is called a small meeting is because only Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, and Wang Xuexin attended this meeting.
Why was it a small meeting instead of a general meeting? The chief of staff immediately explained: "Comrades, the matter at the airport is top secret. Apart from the parties involved, you cannot talk about it to anyone, even your own comrades.
!”
"yes!"
"clear!"
…
"Chief!" The chief of staff looked at Wang Xuexin with a look of relief and said, "We would like to thank Comrade Wang Xuexin. Comrade Wang Xuexin not only fought bravely and commanded the battle well, but in addition to inventing equipment, he also won a lot of foreign aid for us. What about rifle production lines and anti-aircraft guns?
, loans, tanks, and now we have obtained fighter jets! It can be said that our entire Eighth Route Army has completely changed its appearance!"
Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang both laughed proudly, their expressions seemed to say: "These are people from our independent group!"
Then the chief of staff changed the subject and said: "It is definitely a good thing to get a hundred aircraft this time, but we are also under a lot of pressure! The superiors have given instructions and asked us to make good use of these fighter jets and use them in the right way.
, use it accurately, only in this way can the eagle sauce be possible
Reinforce the next batch of fighter jets, otherwise the Japanese will blow them up after three attacks, five divided by two, or hide the planes like a stubborn army and not use them. It makes no sense for Yingjiang to reinforce these planes. Cooperation is mutual benefit and win-win, we must
You must clearly understand this!”
Zhao Gang nodded deeply, the chief of staff's words spoke to his heart.
But it doesn't seem to matter even if you don't know this. That guy Li Yunlong only knows how to fight the Japanese and doesn't care about anything else.
And Wang Xuexin...if he doesn't know how to use it, then I'm afraid no one will use it!
Then the chief of staff turned his attention to Wang Xuexin again and asked: "Did Yingjiang say anything about how well their pilots can do it?"
"Report to the Chief of Staff!" Wang Xuexin stood up and said: "In the early stage, it must be operated by Yingjiang pilots, otherwise the fighter planes would not be able to survive in China. But... although they did not say it explicitly, I think they are not willing to conflict with the Japanese too much.
They even hope that our military pilots can fly fighter planes to fight against the Japanese as soon as possible!"
The chief of staff nodded in agreement.
This is obvious, to preserve pilots in order to preserve strength.
Although the pilots sent to China are probably not excellent pilots, they can still fly fighter jets anyway. If the Pacific battlefield is at a disadvantage or enters a war of attrition, Yingjiang will need these not-so-excellent pilots to fight.
.
Therefore, Eagle Sauce pilots are likely to be of limited combat use only.
So the problem arises, the Eighth Route Army needs to recruit enough pilots quickly.
These pilots are not required to be able to fly Hawk 81 and fight as soon as they arrive, but they must at least be able to understand and learn...
