Chapter 1642 The Design Bureau Moves

"Are they...are they impatient? I will be standing in the Kremlin on September 2nd?" Yang Mingzhi saw this message almost immediately. It was hard for him to imagine that he would be in the Kremlin in just three days.

Arrive in Moscow.

Obviously, Stalin clearly wrote his eagerness in the telegram. Is his strategic value really that great?

He couldn't help being flattered.

As the clear "evacuation telegram" was delivered, the entire command level of the Guerrilla Republic instantly became restless.

It is inevitable that the commander will take some people away, but the event is really close in front of us, and the people who are left behind have really mixed feelings.

After all, it was a fatal order issued by leader Stalin himself. Anyone who dared to question it would be committing a great sin.

Sarinchkin and Lyudbalev hurried to the military headquarters early in the morning. Their eagerness did not look like senior cadres at all, as if they were rushing to the dock to see off their close friends who were about to leave.

"Berekov, have you received the telegram? You...you are about to leave."

"Oh, my dear Comrade Commissioner, I already know about this." Yang Mingzhi pretended to be calm and stood up and said: "We must complete the leader's order perfectly."

"Yes! Yes!" Salinchkin was still anxious: "We must hold an emergency meeting. Now that the main personnel are here, we take action immediately. We really don't have much time."

There is indeed not much time left for the Guerrilla Republic, although many previous meetings have clearly arranged many work matters in the "post-Berekov period". As a group of elites really left, it was discovered that there were still more

Many things have not been resolved yet, so it is inevitable that we will be in a hurry.

Yang Mingzhi and his wife arrived in Belarus cleanly, with only a handful of personal belongings, all of which were packed in a small box.

They come cleanly and leave concisely.

Then there will be many people leaving at the same time. The content of the telegram shows that a ten-mile transport plane will land. If it is just to pick up the people on the list, why so much trouble? Even if it is to take the "Pripyat Weapons Design Bureau"

The organized drawing tape is enough for one airplane.

The large number of war orphans and disabled people gathered by the guerrilla republic can be evacuated by plane. Yang Mingzhi and Salinchkin fully agree with the attitude of their superiors that leaving a large number of non-combatants in the swamp will do more harm than good, so they should be removed in some way

It makes sense to escort him to the rear.

It was obvious that the superiors took this evacuation too seriously.

Salinchkin did not have any manuscripts. After all, he was a political commissar, and his speeches were very slogan-like.

"Comrades, ten transport planes arrived at Khomnich Airport under the leadership of Comrade Gorizodubova. She is a great hero of the Soviet Union. She flew from Moscow to Kamchatka in peacetime, creating a milestone for the entire alliance and

The history of flight in the world.

During the Battle of Gomel, she led the 101st Long-Range Aviation Regiment to launch a large-scale airdrop against us, which not only strengthened the strength of our Lechicha garrison, but also greatly supported the lives of soldiers and civilians.

She knows our geographical location very well, and it is absolutely foolproof for her to carry out this mission."

How can traveling through enemy-occupied areas be absolutely safe? Salinchkin is not stupid, because there are at least eight transport planes to perform special missions. If he mentions "possible interception by German fighter jets", I am afraid that the whole office will be upset.

Panic!

"Comrades, children are the future of the country. I have very conclusive data. At present, we have collected up to 1,400 pure war orphans. Some of them have joined the Youth Brigade because they are older. There are currently 800

The remaining young children are in urgent need of care."

"Eight hundred and twenty-two people!" Lyudebalev corrected.

"Well, there are more than eight hundred children, they need the best care, but it's a pity that we can't even provide them with a safe environment. The superiors took this situation into consideration and sent a plane here. We try our best to save them in one go.

Send away."

There is nothing wrong with transporting away war orphans, but new problems arise one after another.

Yevlov scratched his stubble-covered chin. Salinchkin always spoke impassionedly, but he clearly said an incredible statistic!

He insisted: "What? Do you think ten planes can pick up all the more than 800 children? You...you think too highly of those planes."

Yang Mingzhi knocked on the table lightly: "Comrade Yevlov, this should be feasible."

"Yes, I understand! The leader must have thought carefully before issuing such an order. My math is a mess, I don't understand it."

"You will understand soon. A young child weighs less than 30 kilograms, and a plane must be able to squeeze a hundred children into it. In order to get the children out of misery as quickly as possible, we need to take risks."

"I completely agree." Sarinchkin clapped his hands and said, "So we should take action now, shoot up all the war orphans, and send them to the Homnich military station as soon as possible to wait. Comrade Berekov.

"

"Um."

"I think you and everyone on the list should leave for Homnage immediately."

"Huh? Things haven't gotten so urgent yet, right?"

As soon as he saw the telegram, Yang Mingzhi thought that time was very urgent. He sat down quietly for the meeting and carefully read the contents of the telegram. He thought that if he squeezed the time, he would still have plenty of time.

It's like catching a train. Because you are afraid that you won't be able to wait for the train on time, you enter the station several hours in advance and wait for the train. Although it feels relieved, it also wastes a lot of time.

Looking back on that era, the boring waiting time can be saved by mobile phones. In this time and space, you can either read a book to kill time, or just stare.

Yang Mingzhi has always implemented the principle of "my time is very valuable". Whether taking a high-speed train or a plane, he must always get stuck and arrive at a time that is neither early nor late. People's habits are difficult to change, even here

This is still the case in this era.

Salinchkin wished that he would drive to Homnich immediately and stay directly at the military station until the plane arrived. Yang Mingzhi believed that there was no need to be in such a hurry.

He composed himself and objected.

"According to the telegram, the plane will arrive on the morning of September 1st and leave that night. The reason why it does not leave directly is to avoid possible harassment by enemy planes. So I have a day period, during which we can do a lot

thing."

"A lot of things? What things?!" Salinchkin asked, stretching his neck.

Yang Mingzhi shrugged: "Well...for example, invite the crew to visit our blacksmith village? And invite Gorizodubova to have lunch."

"You..." Salinchkin was speechless for a moment, and finally choked out: "You actually value such a small thing like eating so seriously?"

"Eating is not a trivial matter! Besides, I am about to leave, how can I not have one last meal with my comrades before leaving? After lunch, I will set off to Homnitch. Besides, there is a long way from the blacksmith village to Homnage.

Aren't the roads in Munich been improved a lot? The jeep drive only takes two hours, so we obviously have plenty of time! Besides, if I don't arrive, the plane dares to leave?"

These words also spoke to Salinchkin's heart. He no longer objected and said: "You just think your actions are appropriate."

Faced with the telegram, what should the Guerrilla Republic do? It is very simple, just follow the requirements in the telegram.

The meeting ended quickly, and everyone had to act in accordance with the order. The only change was that on September 1st, in this headquarters, in addition to inviting the hero of the Soviet Union, the navigator Gorizodubova, who had come all the way, to have lunch.

, is also the last lunch for the leadership of the Guerrilla Republic.

After lunch, the comrades who had been fighting for a year rushed to their new battlefields. The war is unpredictable, who can guarantee that this departure will not be a permanent farewell?



Yang Mingzhi had nothing to sort out his personal belongings. After the meeting, he stood outdoors to stretch his muscles, and then went straight to the weapons design bureau.

Popov from the Design Bureau, who is over fifty years old, is also on the list to leave.

The news about the evacuation order issued by superiors reached the design bureau immediately, mainly to inform Popov that he was about to evacuate. Completely different from Yang Mingzhi, as the director of the design bureau, Popov did not just pick up the document package and

Boarding the plane. The design bureau has been established for more than half a year. Every day, many young members work day and night on weapon research and development, and sometimes also design drawings of production tools.

For example, in the manufacture of steam engines, the design bureau has made great contributions.

Their greatest achievement lies in the research and development of recoilless rifles, RPGs and various rocket launchers. What is valuable is not only this group of extraordinary "brains", but also the large number of design drawings.

Speaking of these hand-drawn design drawings, their power is that they can be produced by taking them back to the rear and delivering them to relevant factories. For example, ultra-era killer weapons like the Flying Fish Rocket Launcher can be produced. Because the design drawings and process cards are put together, the factory

If you can produce Katyusha rocket launchers, you can also produce more powerful products.

In addition, the design bureau also has some various drawings.

Many times, in order to produce an excellent weapon or tool, many failed attempts have to be made. Scientific research is often a process of trial and error, and such attempts first start with engineers drawing pictures.

This world war is already in 1944. The brutal war has caused the warring countries to suffer huge human losses. All countries also understand that population is the driving force of the state machine. By enhancing military strength through scientific and technological means, there is no need to invest the flesh and blood of a large number of soldiers in fighting for the war.

victory.

The urgency of war forced many weapons that were still in the conceptual stage to be hastily launched, and actual combat was used to prove which new weapons were the most cost-effective.

There is no shortage of imaginative new designs in the weapons design departments of various countries. A large number of designs have been deemed failures, and there are also a large number of new designs, which have promoted large-scale weapons innovation after the war.

Even the extremely poor "Pripyat Arms Design Bureau" has no shortage of novel designs.

For example, anti-infantry jump mines have been put into actual combat. The German army is already using a kind of jump mine specifically for infantry. Since the German army has been in offensive operations on the Eastern Front for a long time, it is rare to use large quantities of mines. The Soviet army has not yet produced it.

This type of jumping mine is the most commonly used anti-tank mine.

Although Germany was defeated, they invented various new weapons that were imitated by other countries after the war. Even China invented its own anti-infantry jumping mine after learning the principle of jumping mines.

The principle of jumping mines is actually simple. Yang Mingzhi made it according to the template of the 7-type jumping mines, so that when the enemy hits the trip wire, the hidden mines are directly blown up by trace explosives to a height of half a meter, killing the enemy. Yang Mingzhi's magic modification is very crazy.

, one mine can be connected to eight trip wires, enough to cover an area with a radius of five meters, and a large number of fragments will be able to kill enemies fifty meters away.

This weapon was put into use during the battle at the beginning of the year and achieved very good results. However, considering that the tactics of the guerrilla republic are usually mobile warfare and surprise attack, this type of defensive weapon was completely discontinued.

Yang Mingzhi hurried to the design bureau. It was very different from the past. There were many designers and no one was working.

Under Popov's command, they actually participated in counting a large number of documents at their respective workstations.

"What are you doing? Have you already started preparing the materials to take away?"

"Yes, Comrade Commander." Because he heard Yang Mingzhi's muttering, Popov stopped his work and hurried over.

"Report to Comrade Commander, we are sorting out the documents. In order to win the war, these documents must be taken to Moscow."

Yang Mingzhi nodded with satisfaction: "This is necessary. It really makes me happy. I came here to explain this task to you, but I didn't expect that you have already started to implement it."

"Of course, this is my duty."

"Very good, let's take a moment to talk."

The two walked into the director's office, and the wooden door was closed by Yang Mingzhi. Given Popov's hurry, the commander clearly had something special to say.

"Comrade, are the others emotionally stable? You and I have to leave because I'm afraid that the weapons design bureau will go bankrupt. I'm really worried."

"This... is indeed a problem." Now that the commander mentioned it, Popov expressed his concerns: "Everywhere, people need a leader. If I leave, the weapons design bureau will really be leaderless. Those children, they

Their technical level is very high, and their ideological awareness is extraordinary, but they are not geniuses. The invention of new weapons requires genius's conception, and I think they will no longer be able to invent new weapons after we leave."

"Alas, you reminded me. But the guerrilla republic no longer needs better weapons, rocket launchers and RPGs are enough."

Popov nodded: "You are right to say that. I think the leader gave you the death order, and he must have hoped that you would make new achievements in weapons research and development. The small Pripyat Weapons Design Bureau has perfected

Having completed its historical mission, it will eventually be disbanded gloriously."

"No! At least it will not be disbanded until the war is won." Yang Mingzhi suddenly had an idea and asked: "Comrade, what do you think is the core of our weapons design bureau?"

"The core? Of course it's you."

"Yes, I very much doubt that leader Comrade Stalin will appoint me to continue to be a weapons design expert, including you and chemistry professor Ivanov. As long as I am still engaged in this, the Pripyat Weapons Design Bureau will not only not be disbanded, but also

It will become bigger and stronger. You don’t have to have any regrets.”

Yang Mingzhi's words completely awakened Popov, "Ah! Leaving is the beginning of development? Alas, I am really excited. But I am also a little regretful. We still have many comrades who risk their lives to cross the war zone and come to the swamp.

They are all precious college students trained by the country. They are young and energetic, and their professional skills are also very good. You are their director and their teacher. It is a pity that they have to stay behind. "

Yang Mingzhi was silent for a while and said silently: "I just finished the meeting, and the situation is a bit special now. Maybe... we can select some capable people in the design bureau, so that we can move the design bureau directly to Moscow."
