Twenty minutes later, Zhang Shi returned to the county government office with Zhang Kuan, and immediately instructed Zhang Kuan to send someone to notify the mayors of each town to come to the county seat for a meeting. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The circulars also began to order the telegrams from headquarters to be sent for printing in preparation for the subsequent distribution of propaganda.

Everything was busy, although Zhang Shi couldn't understand the meaning of the first three-year plan written on the telegram.

However, the development of industry, the improvement of the economy, the call on the people of the county to actively respond and participate, plus the words of 100,000 urgent orders, Zhang Shi can understand.

At the same time, almost the same scene was played out in Shenmu County at almost the same time, and the county magistrate Wang Jun also received an urgent call from Jilin for island > novels.

He also immediately ordered his subordinates to start preparations.

In just one week, Zhang Xinghan's notice on the first three-year plan basically spread throughout the three northeastern provinces.

The vast majority of the people were informed of the news, in order to let the people know what the three-year plan was.

Organized by Zang Shiyi, the Secrecy Bureau, and the Logistics Department jointly sent groups of personnel to visit various counties and towns to give detailed explanations and introductions to the people.

In fact, even if they don't explain, as soon as the people hear that it was Commander-in-Chief Zhang's personal order, they will respond positively.

Of course, they don't know what to do, and it's not enough to just respond positively.

With the explanations given by the personnel of the Secrecy Bureau and the Logistics Department, most of the people understood the general meaning of the matter, and expressed their determination to resolutely support and support the call of the local governments.

At the same time, after more than a week of preparation, the first official newspaper belonging to the Northeast Border Guards themselves, the Northeast Times, was officially established.

The headquarters of the Northeast Times is located in Jilin, and there is only one headquarters for the time being, but in the future, Zang Shiyi's plan for them is to establish branches in all major cities in the Northeast within a year.

In order to support the development of the Northeast Times, Zhang Xinghan specially spent 200,000 yuan from the already tight treasury as the starting capital for development.

After completing some of his own preparations, Zhang Xinghan went to Alice for help. First of all, solve some equipment problems in industrial development, such as iron ore mines, mining equipment in coal mines, etc.

Nowadays, the territory of the Northeast Frontier Army has expanded, and the coal resources and steel resources that can be mined have also increased.

For the Industrial Revolution to take place, these resources must be put to good use.

Eventually, Zhang's goal is to exploit the Daqing oilfield, China's largest oil field with reserves of 5.67 billion tonnes.

Although it cannot be compared with Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, and other major oil-producing countries in the Middle East in the future. But in China, in the Far East, the Daqing oil field is quite important for oil extraction.

Of course, this has to be done step by step, and you can't rush it.

Alice naturally agreed, and Zhang Xinghan promised to buy the equipment he needed at a high price, so the first list of equipment that Zhang Xinghan needed, Alice quickly sent a telegram back to China and arranged for someone to handle it.

The first equipment problems were solved. Zhang Xinghan began to make preparations for the deployment of strategic air force units again.

In the Jilin headquarters, Zhang Xinghan and Jiang Baili were discussing important matters around the map.

Pointing to Japan on the map, Zhang Xinghan said, "Chief of Staff, take a look." If our strategic bombers were deployed in South Korea, especially Busan, then the effective strike range of our air force would cover the entire Japanese mainland.

As I said, our industrial development is lagging behind the Japanese in an all-round way. In order to catch up with and surpass them, it is necessary not only to accelerate its own development, but also to do everything possible to hinder the development of Japan's domestic industry.

Strategic bombing is the best way to do this. Combined with the blockade of our submarine forces at sea, although it cannot completely paralyze the industrial development of the Japanese, it can also play a certain role in delaying.

The most important thing is that once their homeland is constantly attacked by air raids and the sea surface is frequently attacked, it will inevitably stimulate the development of the Japanese military industry to tilt towards the navy and air force in an all-round way.

With a sense of crisis, the first thing that the Japanese will think of will no longer be to invade our country, but how to protect themselves and ensure that their homeland is protected from our strategic bombing and naval attack and blockade. ”

Jiang Baili nodded and said: "Everything you said is reasonable, but first of all, the maximum range of our HE111 bomber in service is only 1,700 kilometers, and the straight-line flight distance from Busan to Tokyo is close to 900 kilometers."

Not counting the combat time, it is already far beyond the maximum round-trip distance of our bombers.

Moreover, an air attack on the Japanese mainland will inevitably be attacked by Japan's powerful anti-aircraft firepower, and the cost will certainly be considerable. ”

"Strictly speaking, the HE111 bomber is only a short- and medium-range medium bomber, not a strategic bomber, and the strategic bomber I am talking about is not it, but someone else." Zhang Xinghan said indifferently.

"Someone else?" Jiang Baili was a little curious: "I don't know what kind of bomber it is?" ”

"A flying fortress bomber with a range of almost three thousand kilometers." Zhang Xinghan said with a smile.

The Flying Fortress bomber that Zhang Xinghan was referring to was the B-17 Flying Fortress bomber that he had checked in his watch last night and had identified.

This was the main bomber used by the U.S. military in the early and middle stages of World War II, and was later replaced by the famous B-29 Super Fortress bomber.

The specific data of the B-17 Flying Fortress bomber are as follows: Members: 10 people (5 machine gunners) Armament:

Bomb load: 8 tons, length: 22.66m, height: 5.82m, wingspan: 31.65m, full weight: 25 tons, engine: 4x1200 hp, range: 2979 km

Cruising speed: 273 km / h

Maximum speed: 483 km / h

Height: 10,667m

Although its comprehensive performance was not as good as that of the later Super Flying Fortress B-29 fighter, it was also an extremely good strategic bomber at this time.

In particular, the eight-ton bomb load is only one meal less than that of the B29, and a B-17 can drop more than 15,000 catties of various aerial bombs.

Similar to the Zero, the B-17 Flying Fortress was a major aircraft in World War II, and it was only in the late thirties and early forties that it was really ready for production.

In 1934. If it comes out in advance, its excellent performance is unmatched in terms of bombers.

As for the B-29 Super Flying Fortress bomber, it is not absent from the watch, but it has not been unlocked, and it is quite expensive to build.

According to the current situation, the B-17 bomber is completely sufficient, so Zhang Xinghan is not in a hurry to equip the B-29, an epoch-making super bomber, so as not to have an accident. Let it fall into the hands of other countries.

In addition, another reason why Zhang Xinghan chose the B-17 bomber is that the Zero fighter equipped by the Northeast Frontier Air Force can completely keep up with the B-17 bomber in terms of range.

The maximum range of the Zero is 3,000 km, so it can provide effective escort for the entire journey of the B-17 Flying Fortress.

It is believed that as long as there is a full escort of the Zero fighters, no Japanese aircraft will be able to break through the Zero blockade and pose a threat to the B17 bomber group in the air attack on the Japanese mainland.

All they had to deal with was the intense anti-aircraft fire of the Japanese. This can be avoided by increasing the flight altitude.

Although the effect of high-altitude bombing is not good, it is better than lowering the flight altitude and being shot down by ground anti-aircraft fire.

"A bomber with a range of almost three thousand kilometers?" Jiang Baili was taken aback again, and looked at Zhang Xinghan with an incredible face.

"Don't think about it, didn't I go find Alice yesterday. The aircraft was made by the Americans. The model was a B-17 Flying Fortress bomber, and I felt we needed it, so I asked Alice to help us order fifty of them, which were expected to arrive soon. Zhang Xinghan is talking nonsense. Anyway, it was impossible for Jiang Baili to find out or check the specific information of the B-17 bomber.

Because the Yankees are still in the preliminary stage of development, and the B-17 is still on the design drawings, even the Americans themselves may not know that it is called the B-17.

Two months later. The first batch of mine equipment ordered by Zhang Xinghan arrived and was put into use in coal mines in Benxi and other places, and the local people mobilized under the call of local government departments at all levels to participate in the reconstruction and expansion of the mine with great enthusiasm.

Zhang Xinghan also produced the first batch of 50 B-17 Flying Fortress bombers for the Air Force at Pyongyang Airport, and delivered them to the 3rd Air Force Division for training and use.

A month later, 50 B-17 Flying Fortress bombers and 100 Zero fighters were stationed at the restored and expanded Busan military airfield.

Preparations for the final rehearsals of strategic air strikes on the Japanese mainland began.

In the past three months, the expansion of mines in various places has also achieved considerable results, among which the Benxi Coal Mine and Fushun Coal Mine, which were damaged by the war, have successfully resumed production.

There are already considerable coal mines in the northeast region, iron miners, and Zhang Xinghan has been operating in the Huolinhe coal mine for a long time over the years.

Therefore, there is no shortage of skilled coal miners and technicians, all of whom are old workers who have been transferred directly from the Huolinhe Coal Mine.

The training of the officers and men of the Navy has also lasted more than a year, and more than 10,000 officers and men of the Navy have been able to basically drive warships to carry out routine patrols and defense in the coastal areas of the Bohai Bay.

Of course, in the coastal waters of Bohai Bay, due to the deterrence of the Northeast Frontier Air Force, there are no Japanese surface ships to infest, so it is very safe.

The training of the first batch of 500 officers and men of the submarine unit is also going on in full swing, and in the past three months, the submarine cadets have completed their theoretical lectures, and the next step is to practice them.

Next month's update volume will try to maintain about 200,000 words, and the minimum of 6,000 words per day will be relatively less than this month.

After all, you have to get your driver's license as soon as possible, otherwise the longer it drags on, the more money you spend, and the more things will be delayed, but the normal update will not be less, and you can read it with confidence. (To be continued......)
