Chen Xiu's side is a lively and lively construction, while Nanjing is a never-ending and arduous war of resistance.

The time is already December 10th, the battle of Nanjing, which has been fought for 10 days, and many soldiers' lives have been left on the battlefield.

Zhou Wen had a deep exhaustion on his face, at this moment, although their Purple Mountain position was not lost, it was already struggling to support.

Tang Hu was resting beside Zhou Wen, too tired.

"Tuanza, devil, still attacking!"

Zhou Wen frowned and exhaled a long breath, no matter what, since Shangfeng did not give the order to retreat, then, they must defend here.

"Report!"

"Say!"

"Commander Zhou, our captain asks you to come over and discuss the defense together."

Zhou Wen nodded, although the teaching corps was organized into a defensive battle, but after so many days, he was also heavily damaged, he was only a regiment commander of the 87th Division, according to reason, as long as the order was given to him, he would carry it out, but now, so polite, it surprised him.

You must know that he originally studied at the Central Military Academy.

Therefore, many of the commanders of the teaching corps were his former teachers.

"Okay." Zhou Wen stood up, patted the dirt, and then followed the soldier.

Tang Hu opened his eyes, in the past few days, half of his 300 brothers have been lost, and more than 100 corpses are still neatly piled up a hundred meters behind him.

"Big brother, are you awake?"

"Hmm." Tang Hu nodded, the devil's attack is really day and night, they fight very hard, but the devils really take turns. In this battle to defend Nanjing, they did not have much advantage in terms of troops, so they did not rely on the number of people to drag the devil to death as they did in Songhu. Having lost the numerical advantage, they fought very hard. "The devil is also resting now?"

"Well, after all, devils are also human." Zhao Youde's voice was hoarse, and in the past few days, he has been shouting on the battlefield so that his voice has become hoarse.

Tang Hu nodded, he knew that it was impossible to repel the devil's attack. Nanjing, most of them still have to be lost. But Nanjing is the national capital!

Tang Hu was unwilling and lost Nanjing like this. is not reconciled, and there will be no chance to go to the battlefield in the future. is even more unwilling and loses the opportunity for revenge.

But now, his old brother has gone more than 100 times.

Tang Hu's heart is bitter.

Compared with the devils, their strength is too weak.

If they had enough artillery and enough planes, how could the devils have fought so easily?

At this time, Tang Hu deeply felt that Chen Xiu had made a very wise decision to develop the military industry, and it was also necessary to develop the military industry for the sake of so many soldiers on the battlefield. Otherwise, let your own soldiers, with equipment worse than the enemy, go to fight the enemy, isn't that death?

The more he fought, the more Tang Hu felt the importance of equipment.

If they lose, they will lose in heavy firepower.

……

"Chen! This unit should be ready to give it a try! Will ran up to Chen Xiu and pointed to a hydroelectric generator they had just built, "Let's go down and try it later, right?" ”

"Okay." Chen Xiu nodded, today, some Jewish technicians recruited by Chen Yifu from Shanghai have arrived in Hanzhong. Chen Xiu had just led someone to settle them. For the sake of the feelings of the other engineers from Germany, Chen Xiu still arranged the Jewish mechanics to a slightly farther place. Looking at the hydraulic unit made by Will, Chen Xiu was still very curious, although he knew the principle, but, from a practical point of view, he couldn't get his hands on many things. All he can do is bring out the role of these people in his hands.

Looking at this hydro turbine unit, Chen Xiu can imagine that under the impact of the water flow, the turbine begins to rotate, converting the potential energy of the water into mechanical energy; The turbine in turn drives the coaxially connected generator to rotate.

In the past, these Chen Xiu had only seen them in pictures or books, and they had never seen the real thing, but now this one looks a little different from what he imagined, but as long as it can be used, it is all good.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiu became excited, "Let's go!" Mr. Will, let's give it a try! "Finally, electricity can be used, and now in Hanzhong, there is basically no electricity, and even if it does, it is very rare.

Electricity is amazing.

In the afterlife, without electricity, basically nothing can be done.

"Ah Ning, find me someone from the class!" Chen Xiu ran to Tang Ning's side, "I want labor!" Go install that generator! ”

"Is the generator ready?" Tang Ning's eyes also flashed, and the feeling of doing it himself was very good. She also watched this base grow from scratch, and now, it is finally going to be electrified!

"Hmm!" Chen Xiu also smiled and nodded.

"Great! I'm with you! Tang Ning immediately spoke, she also wanted to see how this generator worked.

"Okay." Chen Xiu was helpless, "Then you take your brother to help move things, be careful." ”

"Okay!" Tang Ning then happily chose someone.

As a group of soldiers who don't know big characters, many people are still very new to these things.

After loading the things into the carriage and ox cart, Chen Xiu led the people to a river.

The chariots, the horses, and the soldiers' guns are all at their waists.

On the ox cart and carriage, a large pile of equipment was carried up, and the soldiers were also carefully carried.

After walking for more than ten minutes, a river that was not too small appeared in front of them, and this river was a river that Chen Xiu and Will had calculated that the runoff was large enough and the drop was high enough.

Normally, in order to make the water have enough potential energy, some hydropower stations will block the water upstream and make some savings, so that after the water stays, it can give enough force to drive the turbine of the generator.

But the river that Chen Xiu chose was not a big river, but in terms of runoff and drop height, it was enough to drive their group of turbines.

Then, Will and his men began to install it, the turbine must be in the water, the control box must be exposed outside the water, and in order to avoid rain, sun and lightning strikes. The computer room should be built to prevent dust and moisture.

In short, there are a lot of things, but the first thing they have to test is whether the unit equipped today can produce electricity!

"Chen, you need to find something to fix the bottom of the unit." Will walked over and said to Chen Xiudao, it is impossible for the turbine to float in the air, it must be dragged by a bearing so that it does not fall completely into the water.

"Mr. Will, aren't you prepared?" Chen Xiu was a little stunned, shouldn't this be something basic?

Will scratched his head, "A few of us were so happy after making the crew that we forgot about these fixed scaffolds and stuff." ”

Chen Xiu patted his forehead, "Okay, then let's find some wood or something instead." So, Chen Xiu found Tang Ning and asked Tang Ning to find the soldiers to cut a few pieces of wood, of course, the lower end should be sharpened so that it could be inserted into the sludge in the water.

Tang Ning nodded with a smile and took the task.

Will was a little embarrassed, you know, most of this turbine was built by hand, and it was normal to be a little excited.

Now, though, it's up to them to see if the water is enough to move the turbine around, and if they can, they're going back to building a fixed shelf.

After about half an hour, the soldiers came over with seven or eight pieces of wood on their backs, and the wood was not too thick, and they could not handle it so quickly.
