Now, Yang Mingzhi finally had the opportunity to take a good look at this confident red-haired girl.
In fact, Yang Mingzhi already had a particularly good first impression of her from the moment she came out of the queue.
What can be diverged from this is that this girl has such a unique hair color. When she was young, she was either praised like a flower, or she was always teased by naughty children. After all, she went from the first grade to the tenth grade, and then passed
She has taken the university entrance exam and has now completed her studies. In her more than ten years of study, she must have experienced more than ten years of being focused on by others.
Yes! This rose-like hair is too bright! Yang Mingzhi felt that if he didn't focus on her, he would be sorry for her bright red hair.
Suppressing his strong curiosity for the time being, Yang Mingzhi straightened his back, walked over like a soldier, and stood in front of the girl very bravely.
Comparing his height, Yang Mingzhi is half a head taller.
"Comrade, what's your name?"
"Yes! Comrade Director. I am Natasha Semyonovina Guseva, from Irkutsk."
"Irkutsk? You...your name is Natasha."
"Huh? Comrade Director, is my name very special?"
The girl's name is indeed very special. When Yang Mingzhi heard the word "Natasha", he was shocked.
Her name is Natasha!
A few days ago, I said goodbye to one Natasha in Perm, and when I returned today, I met another Natasha? Is this a coincidence? Or is it fate?
No! It's not that exaggerated.
Yang Mingzhi is indeed very sensitive to the name "Natasha", but on second thought, in this conservative era, there are only a hundred alternatives for Russian parents to name their daughters, and they are also highly
Concentrate on those dozen.
This female name is as common as Ivan among men.
Yang Mingzhi composed himself and continued to ask: "Are you from Irkutsk? I know that city is adjacent to Lake Baikal and is a beautiful city."
Hearing what the director said, Gusheva also became excited.
"Director? Have you been there?"
"No, I just passed by by train. Even though it was only a short stay, it still left a good impression on me."
What Yang Mingzhi said was actually a lie. He had indeed stayed in Irkutsk, and the brief period was no different from whether he had never been there.
After all, that time was in the spring of 1941, when the troops were traveling collectively from the Far East to distant Belarus. I didn't even get off the military train, and could only see some scenes inside the train station through the car window.
But Yang Mingzhi knows the city of Irkutsk well.
Everything is just his understanding of the 21st century city in that plane.
In the 21st century, Irkutsk is a large city with a population of up to 2 million, almost accommodating the population of the entire state. This is not surprising. The vast and cold Siberia forces residents to live in groups, and those who live in large cities are civilians.
The most preferred choice.
In the era of Tsarist Russia, only a few civilians could live in the city, and the poor living conditions made it difficult for the locals to survive.
Times have changed! The Soviet Union won the civil war and defeated the interventionist forces. Later, the Soviet Union was established, and the entire alliance started a vigorous "trend into the city." Irkutsk, which already had a large population, began to
Large-scale expansion, and now under the war, hundreds of thousands of people have poured into the city, and the city has begun its second round of expansion, which is also the largest scale after its completion.
In the summer of Irkutsk, the maximum temperature in July can barely reach 30 degrees. The city is very close to Lake Baikal, so a small town named Listvyanka on the lakeside has become a vacation for city residents.
The resort also attracts people from many countries to come here to escape the summer heat.
In addition, he also learned that Ivanov, his "chemistry expert" in the swamp, was now the director of a military chemical factory in Irkutsk.
Irkutsk, an important industrial town in Eastern Siberia, was a military stronghold established during the expansion of Tsarist Russia. With the completion of the Trans-Siberian Railway, the town began to expand rapidly. Now, due to war factors, hundreds of thousands of residents in the west
Evacuating to local areas, the city's population is expanding rapidly.
The large-scale invasion of the German army promoted the "Eastern Development" of the Soviet Union. There was no need for the authorities to force people to immigrate to the bitter cold Siberia. Now a group of devils who eat people without spitting out bones are coming to the east. In order to survive, the refugees from the west are very happy to immigrate to Siberia.
Eastern transfer.
But it is obvious that this Gusheva must be an old local resident.
It seemed that the director was very willing to listen to his story. Guseva was very nervous and carefully explained her origin: "I am a graduate of the Siberian Mining University. Comrade director, you see, all of us are from the same school.
Take the train to the city of Novosibirsk, where I was assigned to your weapons design bureau five days ago. We are all students majoring in aviation machinery manufacturing, and we are all graduates this year."
"Wait?! What major did you say you were in?!" Yang Mingzhi asked suddenly.
"Aviation machinery manufacturing major."
"Ah? In other words, you have the ability to build airplanes?!"
"Yes!" At this moment, Gusheva had no intention of being modest. She had something to say and said sincerely, "Actually, we have graduated a long time ago. Before that, our group interned at an aircraft manufacturing factory in Irkutsk.
.Some male students were left to work there. As for us, we are now assigned to you."
When the girl was talking, she specifically mentioned the phrase "male classmate", and her words obviously had multiple meanings.
"So, you all know how to make airplanes. In other words, you can at least make a model airplane and let it glide for a long time?" Yang Mingzhi asked urgently.
"Yes, Comrade Director. After all, we are studying aviation machinery manufacturing. Don't doubt our abilities just because we are women... just like some people do! I..." At this point, Gusheva also
Take courage and say, "Just like your brief lecture outdoors, what you need is the elite, and we are the elite you can trust."
Now Yang Mingzhi feels strong self-confidence from this girl. Her eyes are bright and energetic, and her eyes are always very determined when she speaks.
Yang Mingzhi intuitively estimated that she was really a talented person, and her classmates were all talented women.
From the girl's words, Yang Mingzhi confirmed his judgment and co-authored with his superiors to arrange these girls under his command. It was not just his own request of "we need some young female technicians", but Irkut's request.
Some factories in Tsk still have stupid prejudices against them.
That kind of prejudice is a serious mistake, so they won't do it openly, so they find an excuse to kick their subordinates as interns in a very legal way?
Yang Mingzhi was not confused about where they came from. Obviously, this girl named Gusheva knew very well that she needed to prove herself with her strength.
"Ah, it's the Siberian Mining University? It's an excellent university."
"Comrade Director, do you know about our school?" Gusheva asked excitedly.
"I...that's it."
What does Yang Mingzhi really know about "Siberian Mining University"? What he just said was just to get close to the girl.
But in reality, the Siberian University of Mining and Technology is a top university in the Soviet Union.
Before the war broke out, Irkutsk was a city with a slightly larger population than Novosibirsk. Because of its large population, the city was also full of vitality.
The city was a military stronghold when it was first established, and gradually turned into a major military town. As the core city of Tsarist Russia in Eastern Siberia, how important its military status is!
Therefore, during the Tsarist Russia era, there were many arsenals in the city. During the Soviet era, the city naturally became an industrial center.
There is currently a military factory in the city, the Irkutsk Heavy Machinery Manufacturing Plant. Before the outbreak of the war, most of the Soviet bt fast tanks were produced here. Nowadays, the role of bt tanks has basically been reduced to artillery tractors or
Tractors, and some reconnaissance vehicles of the armored forces.
The heavy machinery manufacturing plant began to produce T3476 tanks at full capacity, and produced improved versions according to the requirements of superiors. In terms of productivity, Irkutsk's tank productivity is stronger than Novosibirsk. After all, its industrial strength and industrial population size, Irkutsk
Kutsk has the upper hand.
The reason why she has the war is closely related to the excellent higher education in Irkutsk.
After the founding of the Soviet Union, it spent a lot of money to build some institutions of higher learning, including Irkutsk State University. It was a comprehensive university with a variety of subjects, of course most of which were directly related to industrial production.
As the Soviet Union entered the Stalinist era, Stalin used an iron-fist policy to force the development of the country's heavy industry. In this era, Irkutsk became an institution of higher learning in 1930. This is the "Siberian Mining University" where Guseva graduated.
.
It is a university purely for cultivating high-level technical talents. It has so-called professional specializations, and the subjects it offers are all related to the research of industry and various industrial equipment.
The University of Mining and Technology itself has very bright prospects. In the future, it will be renamed Irkutsk Technical University and will continue to exist.
In 1942, the University of Mining and Technology only trained eight graduates. Among these graduates were both men and women. Without exception, they were the talents that various factories and design institutes were in need of. Of course, employers still hope to get male graduates.
I'm afraid this is an inherent old concept that has not been completely changed.
Although there are both male and female graduates, Gusheva is happy to introduce her school and campus life to Yang Mingzhi. She bluntly stated that there are not a small number of fresh graduates majoring in aviation machinery manufacturing, and the results are all
Almost all professional girls are standing here.
"Comrade Director, we have interned in Irkutsk and we know how to work. However, they thought that we were women and their design department did not have many people, so they persuaded us to find another job. Now we are at your
The design bureau has also been officially assigned. We are all very happy to be assigned...to the Pripyat Arms Design Bureau."
"Well, very good." Yang Mingzhi nodded, "I like to hear what you say. Do you all know how to get the plane into the sky? That's very good. Comrade Gusheva, tell me in detail what important knowledge you know.
.”
"Yes!" Gusheva originally didn't want to stand out, but her red hair made it impossible for her to stand out! When she was in school, she was always noticed by the teacher, and it was the same when she was in the club, and now she was attracted by a man with outstanding military exploits.
The general and director paid special attention to it. I'm afraid this is fate.
Perhaps, this is also a major opportunity in life.
Suppressing her nervousness, Gusheva said: "We study mechanical principles, aerodynamics, and advanced physics in school. We all know how to design machinery, but we are too young. We need an excellent teacher to lead us to further development. I heard
You are the famous expert who developed rocket-propelled grenade weapons, and you are also a general with outstanding military exploits. Please rest assured that we will not disappoint you. We...we also need to learn further by your side."
Hearing this, Yang Mingzhi felt warm in his heart.
Gusheva is still young, but is she already a smart person in her behavior? She talks very interestingly and makes herself very happy.
Of course, what pleased Yang Mingzhi was not just their sincere attitude, but also the major they studied.
There is one thing that Yang Mingzhi now has to face up to. He has actually become one of the pioneers in rocket research and development in the Soviet Union, and he may even have an extraordinary status.
Rockets must solve many problems in aerodynamics, and that is also an extremely important problem.
Looking at these young and confident girls, Yang Mingzhi felt that they might be better than his old subordinates.
There is no other reason. The boys before were all excellent and they were very good assistants. These girls have one more skill than them. They all learned aerodynamics in school. They also had internships in some factories. It seems that they are
The design department of the factory there was partially overcrowded, so they persuaded a group of girls to leave.
Yang Mingzhi felt that it was definitely a bad decision, but it was also generous to others and kept the benefits for himself.
Nowadays, Dobrov is very talented and Kalashnikov has already shown his talents, but they do not have the ability to develop aircraft. Even if they want to develop aircraft, they have to spend many years learning.
Originally, Yang Mingzhi made a bold statement in front of his old comrades and subordinates in Perm, saying that after returning, he would find a way to realize a wire-guided anti-tank missile. To put it bluntly, it was a remotely controlled flying rocket launcher, but it was smaller than ordinary missiles.
Rocket launchers require a more complex structure and more aerodynamic considerations.
Yang Mingzhi himself was extremely lacking in rocket launcher skills. To put it bluntly, he was a second-hand man. If he hadn't been living in a swamp and met the talented village leader Liguschkov who was almost shot for making a mistake, there would be no "catfish"
"The birth of the rocket launcher.
Who would have thought that the old guy was actually a genius who had studied Tsiolkovsky's works on his own. Yang Mingzhi once felt that if Liguschkov could have entered an institution of higher learning when he was young, he would have become famous long ago, instead of
Now a late bloomer.
But for Liguschkov, he is probably satisfied with his current life.
Really, this time his wife was picked up from the swamp by the government's plane, and his young son came back with him. Liguschkov was old enough to live peacefully in the remote but safe Novosibirsk.
Life, and being valued by the country, isn't life happy?
Huh? Thinking of Liguschkov, that old guy came to Novosibirsk and instead of focusing all his energy on producing rocket launchers, even "Flying Fish" with a long range began to be transported to the battlefield by special vehicles.
Aren't the talented young students headed by Gusheva the talents Liguschkov needs most?
Could it be that his superiors really supported Berekov's request that much, instead of taking the overall situation into consideration and giving priority to sending these talents to Liguschkov?
Yang Mingzhi was very puzzled. It seemed that there were more hidden things here.
