Chapter 851: Go home with 300 kilograms of fertilizer
With expectations for the unknown, Yang Mingzhi returned to the fertilizer factory with great interest. He knew that Baihuahua's ammonium nitrate had been mass-produced, and even though the air was still filled with the smell of ammonia, it was still "fragrant".
It was already dinner time in the canteen. Surprisingly, only some workers were queuing up, while others were still working hard.
Some people were obviously scratching crystals, some were transporting raw materials, and some were walking towards the truck carrying heavy sacks.
Everyone had already made preparations to welcome the chief's return. When Yang Mingzhi actually arrived facing the rising sun, no one was surprised.
Ivanov and Liguschkov ran straight over after hearing the news. The smiles on their faces showed that they had gained a lot from the one-night "battle".
Without being asked by Yang Mingzhi, Ivanov made a report truthfully: "Comrade Deputy Division Commander! The production capacity of this chemical fertilizer factory is very high. As of five o'clock in the morning, our output of ammonium nitrate was 246 kilograms. As of
The total production capacity of this pot of solution that was completed at seven o'clock reached 290 kilograms!"
Yang Mingzhi was shocked: "What? Repeat it again? What is the production capacity?"
"It's two hundred and ninety kilograms, Comrade Deputy Division Commander!" Liguschkov added.
This was truly a confident affirmation, but the actual production capacity must be seen to be believed. Yang Mingzhi said no more nonsense and ran straight to the truck filled with finished sacks. He had no time to take into account his status as a senior officer. Just like ordinary soldiers, he clicked three times
They stacked the carriages in half order and squatted next to the piled up sacks.
Ammonium nitrate has a special smell. Even through a layer of sacks, Yang Mingzhi concluded that Ivanov and others were not joking.
On his right side, there was an unsealed sack. Yang Mingzhi's eyes drifted over and he was stunned to see the white crystals inside.
In a daze, his right hand had already reached into the bag, kneaded it, took out a little more and put it in the palm of his hand.
A shocking move was displayed in front of the onlookers and workers. Their commander was actually eating fertilizer!
What are these white substances? I'm afraid I can't figure it out until I try it with my mouth. Yang Mingzhi stretched out his tongue and licked it. Suddenly, a strong bitterness eroded his whole body.
"Bah! Bah! Bah! This thing really makes me cry to death!"
Yang Mingzhi shook his right hand vigorously and closed his eyes tightly. The wrinkles on his forehead were like hardened fields. He spat desperately, hoping that the numb tip of his tongue would quickly return to normal.
Many people have never seen the chief in such embarrassment. In fact, even ordinary people act like a clown. What makes people laugh even more is that he actually tasted the fertilizer himself. This crazy behavior.
The less thoughtful workers burst into laughter, and some even followed the same example and spit vigorously.
Ivanov was happy in his heart, with just a slight smile on his face.
On the other hand, Liguschkov felt much better. He smiled and shouted: "My comrade, deputy division commander! You are already very strong. Do you still think that after eating this fertilizer, you can grow as quickly as a potato?"
"No! This is very unscientific!" Yang Mingzhi's face still looked ugly, and he was very regretful. If he had just licked a little bit, he wouldn't be in such a "tragic situation". But then again, this thing is indeed fertilizer.
, he continued to shout: "If a soldier eats chemical fertilizers and becomes as strong as a bear, if he fights hand-to-hand with the enemy, the enemy will be the one who dies!"
"Yes! Yes! Yes! So let the chemical fertilizers nourish the potatoes. Only potatoes can make our soldiers as strong as bears!" Liguschkov agreed.
The joke ended here, Ivanov began his formal report, so Yang Mingzhi finally knew exactly what happened this night.
What he didn't expect was the muttering about the production capacity of the fertilizer plant.
"I have to admit that my psychological expectation is actually only 100 kilograms! This much fertilizer will be able to produce 130 kilograms of industrial-grade explosives. This is only half a day's output. Four tons of explosives can be produced in a month, which is already beyond the limit.
The demand from the arsenal! This is unexpected, the actual production capacity is three times this!"
"No! If the supply of raw materials never stops and we build new solution precipitation tanks, I have the ability to increase the maximum production capacity to one ton in twenty-four hours!" Ivanov looked bold and bold, and no one could tell.
It means bragging.
Yang Mingzhi suppressed his inner excitement and responded: "But we can't supply tons of raw materials every day! If we can maintain the current production capacity, the arsenal's weapons mass production will be fully guaranteed!"
Liguschkov reported: "Of course! Explosives are no longer a problem. If there is a problem, it is a problem of steel. So far, the scrap metal we have left can cope with it for a while."
Raw materials are indispensable for the production of weapons and ammunition. Yang Mingzhi is not worried about the lack of steel in the arsenal. His right hand points to the north: "Now on the old battlefield of Homnich, the soil is full of metal blocks. There are also pieces of metal that have been bombed.
The ruins of the destroyed city, a large number of foundations still exist, and the steel bars are exposed. If you, the director of the arsenal, feel that the metal supply is tight, report it truthfully, and I will find a way to deal with it!"
"That would be great!" Liguschkov stood up and expressed his attitude: "With a stable supply of metal and explosives, I will be able to manufacture rocket launchers on a large scale!" At this point, he started to cheer again.
Haha: "To be honest, I really want to mass-produce large-caliber rocket launchers, just like the one I made last year. Now our arsenal is already producing rocket launchers. I really want to see our weapons bombing enemy camps like a meteor shower."
The scene. That scene was simply justice from heaven."
Yang Mingzhi chuckled: "Your dream may not be far from coming true! Now let's act quickly. You really gave me the best gift this morning. Now, I must send the gift to the division headquarters and the municipal party committee early."
, let everyone be happy. By the way, I would like to remind Comrade Commissioner to report the matter of the fertilizer plant to the leader!"
In the Pripet Swamp surrounded by millions of German troops, a fertilizer plant, which symbolized one of the industrial achievements of this era, was actually built. Not to mention the production capacity of this so-called fertilizer plant, its existence has more political significance.
It is to show life to the outside world: Not only are we not afraid of the German army, we are also capable of developing industry!
Yang Mingzhi knew very well that he had always been noticed by Stalin. Today, he handed him such good news. I wonder what kind of reward he would get?
He is not greedy for credit. Everyone who participated in the research and development of the fertilizer plant is a hero, and everyone deserves a medal!
It's time to evacuate!
The female military camp has started routine training again, and Joshua herself is supervising the female soldiers on the training ground to overcome each obstacle.
Yang Mingzhi has basically finished settling the affairs of the fertilizer plant. When the last pool of solution is completely precipitated, he can return in triumph with 310 kilograms of ammonium nitrate.
Before leaving, he had to take away four girls and say goodbye to Joshua.
Anne and Sorkina, along with the other two injured girls, had been escorted to the fertilizer factory. Yang Mingzhi simply ordered Abram to accompany them to the outskirts of the female soldiers' training ground.
