However, the incident of burning chicken to ashes quickly spread throughout the guerrilla republic following the official editorial in Novgomel Daily.
The majority of military and civilians have received the publicity that radar is successful in a special way!
What is radar? It is said that with this equipment, the whereabouts of enemy planes will be exposed as soon as they take off! The vast number of non-combatants are the most vulnerable, and they are also the cornerstone of the guerrilla republic! Bielski is writing this editorial, of course
It should be considered that after the article is published, it must be like a shot in the arm to boost morale.
Everything went as he wished. According to the results of the Ministry of Internal Affairs investigation, the morale of the military and civilians has indeed improved significantly. Many people even believe that there will be no threat of air strikes in the future. There is even a rumor spreading like wildfire, so-called "smog control will be terminated soon."
.
A strong air raid, thousands of casualties, such a horrific scene made the majority of civilians follow the orders of their superiors. They could only light a fire at night, boil or roast the potatoes, and then eat the cold potatoes during the day. To be honest
, it’s bad enough just eating potatoes, they’re still cold. Everyone is enduring all kinds of difficulties for safety reasons, but everyone still wants to eat a hot meal!
This is one of the many unexpected commotions caused by the roasted chicken experiment. Some people even say that radar can directly burn enemies from far away. If the great motherland manufactures more such equipment, German tank drivers can be easily burned to death.
.
Many strange rumors were sorted out by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and sent not only to Salinchkin but also to the army headquarters.
On the other hand, Yang Mingzhi really had no time to read the so-called strange rumors. He just glanced at the report documents and pointed out to Yevlov who laughed happily: "Now I can only say that our people are really full of imagination.
Powerful! Some of the ideas they put forward are indeed constructive.”
"Are you talking about smog control?"
"Yes! Maybe we went too extreme in this matter and were too conservative about the threat of air strikes!"
"By the time your radar is up and running, I think the smog control will be over!"
Yang Mingzhi nodded: "It depends on our next experiment."
On the other hand, the arsenal started preparing for the experiment non-stop after the roasted chicken incident.
Liguschkov also faced great pressure. He was ordered to produce one hundred "Sky Monkeys", the small-caliber rockets that were equipped with the troops last year, but they did not have a warhead.
This is actually a quite mature weapon. Overall, it is exactly the same as the rocket from hundreds of years ago! The warhead that was originally a small bomb no longer exists, it is completely a pure rocket.
It is quite easy to manufacture these rockets in a short period of time. After all, these rockets rolled out of cardboard are originally used as the booster part of the RPG warhead. Compared with the casting and turning of the warhead, manufacturing booster rockets is really a big deal.
It’s mass production!
After a night of intense overtime work, the workers completed the manufacture of this batch of one hundred rockets. They were packed and transported onto carriages, and their final destination was the Homnich Military Depot.
Currently, the total number of soldiers and civilians at the Homnich depot is as high as 2,000. Alexander Kolkin has been in charge here for a long time. He has also grown from a communications squad leader to the person in charge of a settlement, the so-called depot commander. He
There is a militia battalion under his command with more than 500 people, and this number is also slowly increasing.
These militiamen are basically middle-aged men between the ages of forty and sixty. Such people are not good materials for elite soldiers. However, the guerrilla republic has no choice. We cannot expect such soldiers to be able to train their legs through the woods. After all,
The age of the person is here. These soldiers have been the security guards of the Homnich military station for a long time, supervising the civilians who settled here, especially the Jewish civilians!
There is a Jewish-dominated unit in the army, namely Vasilyev's Jewish Battalion. In its current establishment, they belong to the first regiment of the 284th Division and are stationed in Catfish Village. However, a large number of Jewish civilians were gradually resettled in Homny.
Strange Soldier Station.
In this war, Jews became the targets of killing. In revenge, Jews who were considered capable of serving as soldiers finally joined the militia. Therefore, Kolkin's militia camp had such bearded elderly Jewish soldiers.
Most of the people in the military depot were civilians, especially the nearly a thousand Jewish refugees who were rescued by intercepting the train. They eventually built settlements in the forest on the edge of the ruins of Homnich and used the bricks in the ruins to build houses. In this way, Homnich
The small city of Mnici was reborn.
But after all, this place is quite far from the core area of the Guerrilla Republic. Another fifty kilometers to the north is the German defense line! Fifty kilometers is actually very far away, and the soldiers and civilians living here are still quite worried. If the enemy launches a large-scale encirclement and suppression, Homnich will bear the brunt.
front!
Homnage is such a strategic location. Even if it is full of ruins, its value is still the same!
Therefore, in Yang Mingzhi's idea, the radar truck should drive to Homnage and scan the northern sky every day.
Now Homnich received an emergency telegram from the Blacksmith Village, and a convoy would arrive carrying a large number of rockets. Corkin did not dare to neglect, he had already learned that this was a target that his superiors were going to prepare for a formal radar test! He
The order they received was to follow the radio command from the Blacksmith Village at the scheduled time on the 16th and light these rockets in sequence. As for what happened next, it was none of their business.
Therefore, the success of the radar test almost depends on the good cooperation of Homnich!
Blacksmith Village is a full 40 kilometers away from Homnich. The radar truck is placed in the open area north of the village. Can it really detect the echoes reflected by rockets flying in the distance? Yang Mingzhi is actually a little worried. After all, these rockets are too
If it's too small, we can only hope that a large number of rockets will be launched at the same time to get a strong reflected wave of the signal.
Everything went according to plan. After talking to Yevlov and others, he went to the arsenal to supervise the work in person.
The carriage transporting the rocket set off on the morning of June 15 and is expected to arrive at its destination before dark. Yang Mingzhi does not require the carriage team to drive wildly on the rather muddy road, but only asks that there be no mistakes.
This time difference gave him a reason to conduct surprise training on these radar soldiers!
A temporary radar platoon was established, and the core of the organization were these four radar soldiers. In addition, there were truck drivers, mechanics, stokers, coal clerks, and simple guards. The total number exceeded thirty people.
.
The commander of the radar platoon is none other than Diana.
This female soldier got promoted!
The radar truck drove to the open space in the north of the village, and in front of it was actually a large green potato field. The radar truck was fixed and the folded antenna was unfolded again. In fact, on the afternoon of June 15, the radar had been turned on several times, and the four-digit radar
The soldiers also conducted surveillance drills.
Under the watchful eyes of the guards, the radar antenna began to swing periodically from side to side. This is called scanning. The radar waves had actually been sent to the airspace more than 60 kilometers away. Because there were no obstacles, the girls received nothing.
Diana was wearing headphones, as if she was still operating a telegraph machine. But it was very quiet in her ears, and she was even a little surprised by the excessive quietness, because many parts of this radar equipment did come from radio stations.
It has been modified so that only the microwave frequency emitted by the magnetron can be heard.
For a moment, she had the illusion of power. After the shift was handed over, her questions immediately rushed to Yang Mingzhi like a flood.
"Comrade Commander! Isn't the radar already on? I can't hear anything! Is there something wrong with the radar?"
"Did you see the electron tube shining?" Yang Mingzhi asked.
"No!"
"That's right!" Yang Mingzhi raised his finger and pointed directly to the north. "Look, there are only some clouds in the sky in the north, and there are no actual obstacles there, so we can't get any feedback. Tomorrow will be different.
There will be a large number of rockets flying thousands of meters into the sky, and they will form a huge obstacle, and you can hear the noise by then."
"Is it really so magical?!" Diana's eyes widened and she stared at the commander with longing.
Being looked at by the female soldier like this, Yang Mingzhi felt really uncomfortable. He coughed and said: "Of course! In the future, you will be placed in Homnich, which will not only be a radio signal relay station, but also our radar station! You
The burden on this female volleyball leader is very heavy!"
"It doesn't matter! Serving the motherland is my greatest honor!"
"Haha! I will convey your heroic words to Comrade Salinchkin, and he may even convey it to the leader! Lead your people and work hard, and you will definitely have the opportunity to make great achievements!"
