On June 2, the weather was not ideal early in the morning. The air was a bit humid, the sky was gloomy, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that it was going to rain.
For the swamp, rain means trouble!
It's already early summer. The highest daytime temperature at the end of May can reach 20 degrees, and the nights are no longer cold. There was less rainfall in May this year. There was only one magnificent downpour, and at most there were sporadic drops.
Raindrops. Perhaps enough rain is held in summer, or in autumn, which is already rainy.
Every settlement in the Guerrilla Republic attaches great importance to rain protection. The villagers' residences have rain-proof gable roofs, which are covered with an extra layer of reeds that are readily available in the swamps. These features not only prevent rain, but also make them concealed.
The safety is higher, the only thing you have to worry about is the fire protection function.
The threat of enemy invasion has always existed, and now there is a powerful air strike. The majority of civilians are happy for the machine gun that has made a contribution, but they know rationally that now everyone must disguise themselves and hide themselves from the enemy!
Rain is as much a blow as an enemy's invasion, especially in summer and autumn. A large amount of rainfall makes the earth so wet that it is wet everywhere. In this situation, people can only rely on their strong patience.
You can endure it, but the disease is still hard to resist! Clean the house frequently and wash your body and clothes frequently, and follow Dr. Bessika’s advice, boil the well water and let it cool before consuming it, and eat enough potatoes every day, or
It can avoid getting sick to the greatest extent.
These sanitary measures were supervised by the village Soviets, especially the task of boiling water.
In the past, Belarusians did not have the habit of boiling cold boiled water. As a doctor, Yang Guo knew that since boiling water can sterilize surgical instruments, it would be great for ordinary people to drink boiled cold boiled water. In fact, she simply hoped that the common people would
Don't make this decision just because you have frequent diarrhea and go to the hospital.
Now, the habit of drinking hot water is gradually becoming a new living habit for the 60,000 soldiers and civilians of the Guerrilla Republic. Because, perhaps it is this good habit that caused the diarrhea rate to plummet in this harsh swamp environment, and the diarrhea rate
It was confirmed that the patients were basically those who drank raw water.
As the weather turns cloudy, soldiers and civilians have also begun rain protection work.
At noon that day, a terrifying roar suddenly came from the south. Old soldiers described it as if a fierce battle was breaking out in the south, and ordinary civilians quickly recalled the horror of the German plane bombing a few days ago.
This was thunder in the south, and soon, raindrops began to fall from the sky.
As a man of action, Yang Mingzhi's feet and his brain almost moved together since he was about to start building radar. Just the night before, he held the regular fist-sized magnetron in his arms.
Without even staying at the headquarters for a while, he went directly to the office of the weapons design bureau founded by him.
Once they entered the working state, they ignored the passage of time. Yang Mingzhi and other scientific and technical personnel discussed it until early in the morning. In the end, everyone's eyes were bloodshot and they couldn't hold on anymore.
They spent a lot of energy fighting all night, but it was all worth it, because after one night of discussion, the basic blueprint of the radar had already taken shape.
Technological products cannot be created overnight, especially in this era. The development and application of radar are also in its infancy. Although many countries are already using radar, its performance limitations are too great, and its overall performance is even worse!
For people like Yang Mingzhi, what he touched before time travel was the huge knowledge network built by people in the 21st century by summarizing their predecessors, especially the majors he studied and the careers he later engaged in. Even if he was making radars by hand
, he has a very solid theoretical foundation. However, this matter is no small matter. Turning theory into displayed radar equipment, especially radar equipment without an oscilloscope, is not a simple matter.
The magnetron is just the "heart". It needs to be assembled using existing materials to make a usable airborne early warning radar. Yang Mingzhi estimates that it will take a week to complete the initial drawings!
Yang Mingzhi now has two important roles. One is planning the military operation against Loev, and the other is the urgently launched radar project.
His wife had just received the Gold Star Medal. As her husband, he should return to the dormitory to accompany her. Yang Mingzhi finally lay down on the bench in the design department and set up a small bed here, even though it was raining outdoors.
The sound of rain did not disturb his sweet dream.
As the saying goes, he thinks about things day by day and dreams at night. He finally rubbed his eyes and sat up slowly, still trying to recall the dream in his mind.
"Hey! If the radar is really built, I will be able to detect the German plane as soon as it takes off! However, we must also consider the wild geese that are overwintering in the autumn!"
He muttered to himself in Chinese, and several design bureau staff members saw that the commander was awake and quickly came to remind him.
"Comrade Commander, it's already four o'clock in the afternoon! I think you should go to the headquarters and take a look!"
"What? It's four o'clock?!" Yang Mingzhi looked at his watch suddenly, and a feeling of guilt suddenly emerged in his heart. He looked at these people angrily: "You should wake me up earlier!"
"This...actually the deputy commander has already come to see you! They ordered us not to disturb your rest! The deputy commander is also very concerned about our radar manufacturing work."
Hearing this, Yang Mingzhi couldn't help but giggle: "Haha, what's that man's attitude? I think Salinchkin cares about us the most! If we really build a radar, this matter can be reported directly to the leader Stalin. From now on.
You young comrades also need to be honored! Okay! I have to get up now. Well, there is one more thing."
"Do you have any other instructions?" the staff member asked.
"By the way! Why is it so noisy outdoors?"
"It's raining! Comrade Commander!"
"What? It's actually raining?"
"It was very sudden. It started to rain right after lunch! Fortunately, the rain was not heavy." The rain was nothing special, and the staff explained it carefully.
"Even light rain is terrible!"
Yang Mingzhi hates rain very much, he must hate it. Rainfall has a great impact on food reserves and weapons manufacturing. It will also seriously interfere with charcoal burning, peat drying, brick burning, pottery burning, logging, and even fertilizer production.
What's even worse is that I don't know how long this rain will last. If it ends in a short period of time, it will have little impact on everything. If it rains continuously, this swamp will really turn into a giant mud pond!
If there is one benefit of rainfall, it is that it reduces the possibility of enemy attacks. The German army initially determined that the huge Pripet Swamp area was a forbidden area and had little occupation value. It eventually became the paradise of the guerrillas, and it was also the beginning of the German army.
Unexpected! In short, the Germans would not be stupid enough to invade the swamp when the water and grass are at their most abundant. The most suitable time is an air strike. It rained and the gloomy weather also prevented the enemy's air force.
The swamp under the rain is actually the safest, but Yang Mingzhi doesn't like this kind of safety that makes him feel aggrieved.
It is his job to sit in the headquarters. Because of his special nature, he is busy developing new weapons in the design bureau or arsenal, and is recognized by many senior officers and staff officers. Yang Mingzhi is completely unprepared for this rain.
Therefore, the future strategy of Loev will have to be revised.
He ordered the assassin who was also in a bad mood: "According to the plan we studied in the early morning, you will lead everyone to continue the study. Now I will go to the headquarters. After dinner, we will continue to study until dawn!"
After that, he was fully dressed and put on a fur coat, raised a broken umbrella he had found in the previous battle, and ran straight to the headquarters.
