Chapter 45 Successful Development of Camera Fuse

Zhang Xianzhong came to talk to Zhang Zhimu, King Zhou and King Dai suddenly remembered that the emperor had asked them about Zhang Xianzhong's arrival at the kiln, and immediately understood that this guy was Zhang Xianzhong. The two princes who couldn't wait to eat Zhang Xianzhong glanced at each other, but they couldn't help it, they didn't dare to make a mistake here. In fact, they hated it, and they didn't dare to move Zhang Xianzhong. Since this guy dares to stab here, he is not afraid of people touching him. The two princes turned around and left. Zhang Xianzhong squinted at the backs of the two princes, and said to Zhang Zhimu with a smile: "Haha! It seems that some people don't like to change my old Zhang! ”

Zhang Zhimu smiled and said, "It's weird if you like you!" ”

"Ahh Haha, my Lao Zhang is willing to listen to you and be angry with me! Zhang Xianzhong was said to be happy by Zhang Zhimu again.

Seeing that there was no one around, Zhang Xianzhong said in Zhang Zhimu's ear: "Zhang Dongjia, I think you and the emperor are like brothers, no, they are closer than brothers." I see why you don't rebel! ”

"From ancient times to the present, there are too many emperors. But there are not many people who can be as diligent and loving the people as the emperor today, and the Ming Dynasty made it like this, and it is not the fault of the emperor alone. It's that this system doesn't work. After Zhang Zhimu finished speaking, he made a gesture, "Eight kings, let's get on the boat first!" If we don't get on the boat, we can't go. ”

Zhang Xianzhong also understood that today was not the time to talk about things, so he got on the boat with Zhang Zhimu.

After sending the emperor away, Zhang Zhimu and the leaders of their kiln listened to the reports of Duan Jingzhong and Shi Xiu and others.

Although Duan Jingzhong's face was tired, his spirit was exceptionally good. "Mr. Zhang, everything is going well, it will be smoother than we expected. The water of the Yellow River in the new river channel has already entered the sea. No serious problems were found with the embankment. We ran through the speedboat and had direct access to the sea. Some shoals were found, we immediately organized people to clean them up, and the big boats could soon enter the sea through the new channel. ”

"Mr. Duan! You've worked hard, and you haven't left the construction site for more than a year. Zhang Zhimu couldn't bear to say, "We have too many things to do, you can't fight like this." I told Mr. Tang Jingyao that you can only do one thing if you fight alone, and you have to cultivate and encourage more people to fight for you, so that we can do a lot of things. If you fight now, who will do the rest of us? ”

"Mr. Zhang, don't worry, my body is getting better and better." Duan Jingzhong said, "We have trained a lot of people through several projects, and I will let them do more." ”

"Tell me about the following project, shall we?" Zhang Zhimu said.

"The entrance to this old river channel will be blocked immediately. There are several tributaries along the river from Kaifeng to Huai'an, and we are also blocking them at the same time, and after the blocking, we will drain the water, and then we can build the canal embankment. Pine and other materials have been shipped in place. On this section of the canal, we are going to build five bridges. Now the Huai River estuary channel is being excavated. Mr. Tang Jingyao is already over there, and I will rush over soon. Last night, Mr. Tang telegraphed and said that he had discussed with Commander Fan of the Zhenjiang base and called a large number of **. Because the flood season of the Huai River came early this year, it was too late to dig the river channel into the estuary. They want to borrow the old channel of the original Yellow River into the sea, the place where the Huai River will be blocked by silt, and blow it up with **, which can blow up an opening, and introduce the water of the Huai River into the old channel of the original Yellow River into the sea. Duan Jingzhong reported on the construction of this new canal in one breath.

"Good! You've got to work hard. Zhang Zhimu said, "General Shi Xiu will tell me about you!" ”

"One of our divisions has been assembled at the Zhenjiang shipbuilding base. After there was no situation on the embankment of the new channel of the Yellow River, our men were also retreating. A large part of our people will go to support the construction site of the Huai River estuary, and some people will be arranged along the new canal. Shi Xiu said it very simply.

"The new channel project of the Yellow River, Shi Xiu's second army has made great contributions. Without your participation, the new channel project of the Yellow River would not have gone so smoothly and such a high-quality embankment would not have been built. Zhang Zhimu said, "Don't let go of the following projects." Our transportation is heavily dependent on this waterway, and we need to complete the project as soon as possible. ”

"Yes!" Shi Xiu stood up and saluted.

After listening to Duan Jingzhong and Shi Xiu's reports, Zhang Zhimu and others went to the construction site to visit everyone in the afternoon. In the evening, Zhang Zhimu and his passenger boat set sail overnight and went back to Yaogang. Dinner was served on board.

While eating, Chen Yufeng said: "We two officials of the Ming Dynasty are really effective in using them. ”

"I've asked Editor-in-Chief Fan to sort out the information about the two of them, and we should publicize their affairs. Set an example for those who came after them. Zhang Zhimu said.

"I think at the end of the year, we also have to give them some rewards at the administrative level, not just about money." Ouyang He said.

"Yes! The more you give, the more you get, so that you can convince people. Zhang Zhimu said.

"We have two things in front of us that need attention." Chen Yufeng put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, "One is Zheng Zhilong's business," after speaking, he glanced at Zhang Xianzhong, who was drinking on the other side, with his eyes, "The other one is it!" ”

"Huh! I didn't take his business seriously at all. We don't need to be in a hurry, we come to the kiln, and things will be easy to do. Zhang Zhimu said.

"I'm different from Mr. Zhang!" Ouyang He said, "The affairs of the Eight Kings are related to the affairs of the entire Southwest. The results on Zheng Zhilong's side are all under our control, and there will be no major problems. ”

"No matter what happens to Zhang Xianzhong, we will solve the problems of Liangguang and Southwest China next year. There are not enough cadres, so let's take our time and solve it militarily first. Zhang Zhimu said.

"Do you have a good idea of the candidates in the southwest?" Chen Yufeng asked.

"Huh! Actually, the two of you are more than me," Zhang Zhimu said with a smile, "That Zhao Jinli should let him take on something bigger." ”

"yes, I also think this is a person who has a good idea." Chen Yufeng said.

"Actually, not only Zhao Jinli, but also several of our other army commanders can be reused, but we have too many generals and have no chance for them to play. Like this Shi Xiu, Lin Feng and Wei Xiang, they all played with us. Now both the ability and the vision are different from before. If you have the chance, let them exercise more. Ouyang He said.

"When are you going to transfer that Qin Peng back?" Zhang Zhimu asked.

"I discussed it with Mr. Chen, and waited until he handled the affairs of Liangguang and stabilized." Ouyang He said, "If he is a talent, it is just right to come back and partner with Liu Yun." But let him exercise first! He hadn't gotten any decent fights in the past. ”

"Now, the matter over there in Fujian is ready." Chen Yufeng said, "When I go back, I have to prepare for the southwest." I don't think the First Army, which marched into the southwest of Zhao Jinli, should be expanded, because the entire southwest of Sichuan is too large, and the army is not enough. Cadres are easy to handle, and our College of Commerce, Law, and Law will graduate a group of students, and Li Yunhe and his workers will also have quite a few cadres selected, and we can also draw out a group of experienced cadres from Shaanxi next year. ”

"You and Mr. Ouyang can just look at these things," Zhang Zhimu said, "It's not difficult for us to recruit troops now, we can choose some elite soldiers." However, I see how I went back to talk to Zhang Xianzhong this time, if he can be submissive, he can also reorganize his army somewhat, otherwise his army arrangement will also be a problem. ”

"Okay! There is no need to worry about this, I see that this Eight Kings looks like they are fine, and he will be much more anxious than we are. Ouyang He said, "No matter how heartless people are, they will not let go of hundreds of thousands of brothers to hang out here by themselves." But he must be given enough time to figure it out on his own! ”

This Eight Kings is also really a character, and he didn't delay drinking at all along the way. Zhang Zhimu didn't talk to him about anything.

Back at home, Huang Yukun was a little unhappy when he heard that Xiao Hongyu and the children hadn't come back yet, "If this child plays endlessly, he will be spoiled." Children are not sensible, and adults are crazy. Huang Yukun's words also said that Xiao Hongyu, but Zhang Zhimu knew that the child had never left her for so long, and she missed the child in her heart.

"Tell me, the child finally had the opportunity to go out and play, with Xiao Hongyu with him, what are you worried about, and blame Xiao Hongyu?" Zhang Zhimu persuaded.

Yang Yulin, who was already at work, said: "When you go to work tomorrow, you can call Yang Chang and Li Wei!" They said that the proximity fuse shell was successfully developed. ”

This is good news, if the shells can explode in the air, the power against infantry will be several times greater, and the deterrent effect will be greater.

Chen Yufeng and Ouyang He were also very happy to hear the news, and they made an appointment to go to the shooting range together to see the effect of this kind of shell.

Li Yunhe and Zhang Zhimu still took a car to the shooting range. In the car, Li Yunhe said: "Mr. Zhang, the kind of steel with nickel chromium is simply good." We're using this steel to develop barrels and barrels. However, for the time being, it is not necessary to use this steel to produce barrels. However, in the future, I will let them use all this kind of cannon steel for the reproduction of cannon barrels. ”

"Okay!" Zhang Zhimu said, "You guys should also hurry up on the plane." ”

"I know, but it's really difficult to have a star-shaped engine, either the engine block is too hot or it doesn't work smoothly, and it's really difficult for several cylinders to work together. But we're making the planes with the best wood, and we're pretty much done. Li Yunhe replied.

"What about the car factory you want to build in Taiyuan?"

"The venue has been chosen, and it's right next to the Fen River. The land is now being leveled, and construction will begin as soon as the design of the plant is completed. I have arranged all the main production equipment, and I have arranged the main leaders and technicians of the factory, so as to have an eyebrow next year. Li Yunhe said.

"Li Di, what happened to the steel cable across the Yellow River? When the steel cable is crossed, the cable can be led across the Yellow River. In particular, before the end of the year, the Hutuo River will be able to generate electricity, and if we send electricity across the Yellow River, there will be electricity in those places on the other side. Zhang Zhimu asked.

"The steel frame is being erected, and after the steel frame is erected, the steel cable can be sent over." Li Yunhe replied, "I hope that the Hutuo River can generate electricity as soon as possible, so that our electricity will be enough, otherwise we have to think about electricity in everything." ”

Chen Yufeng and Ouyang He also came to the shooting range one after another, and Yang Chang and Li Wei and a group of them were already waiting here.

After everyone arrived, Yang Chang introduced the development of proximity fuzes, and now there are 120 heavy mortar shell proximity fuzes and 130 artillery proximity fuzes. Yang Chang also took out two samples of artillery shell fuses for everyone to see.

After everyone finished reading it, Zhang Zhimu said: "I can only look at the surface of this thing, you better try their power." ”

Li Wei said: "On the hillside in the distance, where the white circles were drawn, we set up a lot of straw figures pasted with white paper, and I will shoot a few shots for everyone to see." ”

"Alright! Get started now! Chen Yufeng said.

Li Wei smiled and said, "They are preparing, and they will be ready soon!" ”

After a while, the soldier reported: "Ready! ”

Li Wei ordered: "130 guns and 120 guns each fire two shots, start!" ”

The 130 guns first fired two earth-shattering "dong dong" shots, and everyone used their binoculars to look at the target with a white circle drawn in the distance, only to see a flash of fire, and the shell really exploded in the air. Then the 120 heavy mortars also fired two shots, and the shells also exploded in the air.

Li Wei said: "We add prefabricated shrapnel to the airburst bombs, which is more lethal. ”

Chen Yufeng said: "Let's go over and have a look after the fight!" ”

Everyone got on the bus and came to the target area. At first glance, I saw that this airburst bomb was really too powerful. There are many straw figures in the target area, and in order to see the effect of being hit by shrapnel, the scarecrows are pasted with white paper. Therefore, it can be clearly seen that almost below the location of the shell explosion, no straw man is immune to shrapnel hits.

Ouyang He asked, "How much silver can this proximity fuse cost than the original one?" ”

"It's not cheap now, but if it can be mass-produced, it will be much cheaper," Yangchang said. This thing is expensive because it uses the best semiconductor devices. All the devices used in this need to be repeatedly inspected and tested for aging before they can be screened. ”

Chen Yufeng said: "No matter how expensive it is, it must be produced. Shells explode above the opponent's head, and this deterrent is even more powerful. ”

"That's right! Yangchang, immediately go back to organize the production of such fuses. Zhang Zhimu said to Li Yunhe again, "You also have to produce the matching shells!" ”

Yang Chang and Li Yunhe both agreed.

Ouyang He said: "This thing will be very effective against cavalry!" ”

"Huh! I think the 120-heavy mortar is more effective against the cavalry, because the mortar is easy to shoot and flexible against the cavalry. Li Wei said.

"Li Wei, you have to quickly summarize the use of this kind of shell, so that our artillery will use this kind of shell as soon as possible." Ouyang He said.

"We're working on this, and we'll get the shooting watch out as soon as possible." Li Wei said.

After Chen Yufeng and Ouyang He saw the effect of this cannonball, they were much happier than Zhang Zhimu. They are more aware of the role that the power of weapons plays on the battlefield.

On the way back to Yaogang, Yangchang squeezed into Zhang Zhimu's car again.

As soon as the car drove away, Yang Chang said, "Mr. Zhang, do you have time to tell us about the principles of the computer when you come back this time?" ”

"Hmmm! I'll set aside time for you to talk about this in the next two days. Zhang Zhimu said, "However, you still have to set aside a group to make a new thing." ”

"What's new?" Yang Chang came to the spirit when he heard it.

"Your monitors can already display characters, but have you ever wondered if you can use it to display images like movies? Is a movie just a rotation of images? Zhang Zhimu asked.

"Then there must be images that can be displayed on the monitor?" Yangchang was very smart and immediately thought of the main point of the problem.

"That's right! What I said I want you to do is a camera that can produce images like this. Zhang Zhimu said, "With such a camera, you can produce images that can be displayed on the monitor, and you can see movie-like images on the monitor." ”

"Ouch! It's not easy, is it? Yang Chang saw that this was not an easy task.

"It's not easy! But the principle is not difficult. Zhang Zhimu said, "You all know that when taking pictures, the light of the scene is concentrated on the negative of the film, but if you want to turn the light signal into an electrical signal, you need to use the principle of photoelectric conversion." ”

"Now we have found several materials that can produce the photoelectric effect, but in order to display an image on a display, the electrical signal must also be able to synchronize the field frequency with the frame rate. That's the problem. Yang Chang said.

"Huh! I was about to tell you about this, but I didn't expect you to tell you all the key points. Zhang Zhimu said, "In fact, the principle is as simple as that, we just want to follow this idea and get this camera out." ”

"I think I'll let the team that developed the display develop this camera. They are still clear about what field frequency frame rate they have, and it is much easier to develop. Yang Chang said.

"I'll see it!" Zhang Zhimu said.

Li Yunhe said on the side: "I heard what you said about this thing so hard? What's the use? ”

"Huh! Let's put it this way, after we developed a camera, set up a camera at the shooting range, and then use a cable to send the signal back to the kiln, we can see the real-time image of the shooting range like a movie on the display in the kiln, do you say it is useful? Zhang Zhimu said.

"Oh my God! What are you talking about, is it true? Li Yunhe was a little shocked.

"It's not true, what are we doing with these?" Zhang Zhimu said.

"It's so useful to have this good thing, but it's also too good to shoot." Li Yunhe said, "If we can see what they are doing at the shooting range in Yaogang, won't their scalps all have to be numb?" ”

"Yes, this thing will be installed in the grain depot, prison, and around our military factory in the future, and the guards will be able to see the situation outside clearly in the police room, and there is no one to see outside, do you think this thing is useful?" Zhang Zhimu asked.

"Yes, we can install this thing on the factory floor as well. And in front of the blast furnace, can you also install this thing? Li Yunhe said.

"And yes! We can also record these electrical signals on tape in the future, and play them back again and again, just like a sound recording. If these problems are solved, we can make small movies with this thing. In the future, each of us will buy a monitor that can see this image, and in the future it will be called a TV. So can we also watch movies at home? In the future, if we use this thing to record news interviews, will we be able to see news with images at home? Zhang Zhimu guided him little by little.

"OMG! It's like a dream! Li Yunhe was also a little stunned by Zhang Zhimu's description.
