"The above are some of my suggestions for the production of repair equipment. At the same time, the difficulty we face is the problem of raw materials. Due to the large increase in production, the raw materials can no longer meet the needs of the current military factories, so I need to coordinate local raw materials and repair equipment.
The institute will expand, cut off some unimportant categories of production, and shift them to major categories.”
Han Cheng made a report at a political meeting in Shanxi, because industry is still unfamiliar to many people, and some leaders have been to the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union's large-scale machinery production can easily leave a deep impression.
"So what kind of production do you mean?"
"Currently, our repair shop has two 3,000-ton hydraulic presses, three 800-ton hydraulic presses, and three 300-ton blast furnaces. The foundation is being built and has not yet begun large-scale production. Once production starts, we will first cover the
For heavy artillery with a caliber of 75 mm and above, we have obtained information on some of the Japanese army's heavy artillery with a caliber of over 100 mm through our comrades in the Northeast. When the three blast furnaces are put into production, we can produce 28 heavy artillery with a caliber of 75 mm or more per month, with a monthly output of
There are about 400 rounds of heavy artillery shells.”
For the Eighth Route Army, which has always been a poor boy, when has it ever been so generous, especially for the production of heavy artillery. In terms of heavy artillery production, the base area has no technical personnel and relevant experience at all. Why does Hancheng dare to guarantee it? You taste it, you fine it
At the same time, not only in terms of artillery shells, but more importantly, it can produce heavy-duty gun barrels of very high quality, which will obviously improve combat effectiveness.
"A huge problem with the firearms in our army is that the firearms are too old, and many soldiers' barrels have been ground flat, but it is still not possible to have one gun for each person. Now because so much equipment has arrived, we can produce it every month
With a large number of high-quality gun barrels, these barrels are then handed over to others to assemble, and it won’t take long to rotate equipment for the surrounding troops!”
It is still too naive to want to completely put down the guns now. At least there is no clear news now. Ammunition production and military training must still proceed as usual. Hancheng has no hope of peace anyway, and everyone has begun to grab territory. The Kuomintang is doing
It was quite brilliant. They directly recruited the local puppet troops, changed the King's flag on the city wall, and directly changed the Japanese flag to the Sunny Day flag. This is the territory of the Kuomintang.
Of course, one result of this is the dissatisfaction of the people. When the Japanese were here, you guys bullied me. Now that the Japanese finally surrendered, why are you guys still bullying me? It’s like saying change
The soup does not change the dressing.
“What support do you need now?”
"Manpower, materials, everything is lacking."
An industrial cluster does not require the power of one person, but the power of multiple people. The current foundation can only ensure the operation of some equipment, and the most important thing is the support of electricity. China is actually still short of electricity. Since the Revolution of 1911
Until now, a relatively complete power supply has not been established. Why do industrial enterprises like to go to big cities? Because there is enough power around big cities to ensure the operation of enterprises.
"How do you get the power equipment? These big guys can't be solved by just a small power station."
"We have ordered a set of power generation equipment from Lushun, nominally through the chairman of Shanxi Province. In fact, this has been arranged and can be installed and debugged as soon as it arrives."
For this day, Hancheng not only emptied out its warehouses, but all its skilled workers have been used to train new workers. After complete peace, these industrial enterprises are likely to be the industrial base of the Republic. In addition to the Northeast Industrial Zone,
Maybe it was Han Cheng who did this.
"Here is a list of my expenses. Now you want me to provide food to support the troops. I really can't afford any now."
This is actually a lie. How could it be possible that nothing can be produced? There is still half an old warehouse of grain buried in the mountains, but that grain was used at a critical time. There is still some time before the next harvest.
, as long as there is no fighting during this period, it can basically be passed safely.
After the meeting, Han Cheng stayed in the office for a while, because he wanted to calculate with other comrades how much material and manpower would need to be invested. Why Han Cheng was so vigorously investing in machinery and equipment at this time? Mainly because after World War II, now in
Russia has piles of materials from various defeated countries. It would be a very simple matter to exchange these materials for food. For the Soviet Red Army stationed in Lushun at this time, this was a very simple matter. They all wanted gold, silver, dollars and food.
"Isn't the price this time a little too high? Your family's fortune has been completely ruined."
"With the resumption of domestic production soon, these can be converted into civilian products at any time. The output of steel is the most obvious symbol of an industrial country. We do not have our own industry and have been devastated for nearly a hundred years. When there is no more war, I will go
The poorest places have mobilized a huge industrial team to catch up with the United States!"
After expressing his stance to his superiors, Han Cheng had actually begun to think about quitting, because he was also afraid of hearing the bad news about his family on the battlefield. But what he didn't know was that his brother-in-law had already died on the battlefield, and his sister
He passed away on the second day after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. Two people in the family had already died during the Anti-Japanese War.
"Hey, Comrade Han Cheng happens to be here too. This is the news for you from Chongqing. Your sister has passed away. Your brother asked you to go home and have a look."
A clerk here came over with a telegram and said to Han Cheng simply and clearly.
"What? My sister died!"
Han Cheng hasn't encountered anything sad for a long time, but this is still difficult for him to accept. It's great to have someone who cares about you during the war. We are all part of the family, especially if you give him something every now and then.
.
"Then...what does the chief mean?"
No matter how uncomfortable Han Cheng is now, he still needs to ask the chief's opinion.
"Well, the chief is also very confused, because the relationship between us and the Kuomintang has become extremely unharmonious, so our intention is that you don't want to go. The chief is going to leave it to you to decide if you want to go.
We can contact you on your behalf and take off directly from Xi’an Airport to Chongqing.”
The decision-making power here was still left in his own hands. Han Cheng thought for a while, but still gritted his teeth.
"I go!"
"Okay, you prepare here. I will send you directly to the airport in Shanxi today and fly directly to Chongqing."
Han Cheng took the telegram and folded it carefully. After a while, a messenger handed Han Cheng a letter of certification. This letter was to be delivered to the Chongqing Eighth Route Army Representative Office.
Han Cheng carried his luggage, took a deep breath, then got on the donkey cart and wandered away from the base.
