Chapter 135: The Celebration of Naberezhny Jecherny 2
Tartary, for Lin Jun, is a relatively unfamiliar and familiar term: both this nation and its history are inextricably linked to the East. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn my previous life, I watched some films and television dramas about Russia, and I saw images of Tatars who were brave and good at fighting, but they were often accompanied by descriptions of violence and barbarism. Many film and television works are not credible, which is the obscenity of directors and screenwriters, but they often mislead people's opinions and cognitions.
The Tatars of the Soviet Union should be said to be the Mongols and Turks who mixed with each other in the time of Genghis Khan, stayed in Eastern Europe after the westward expedition together, and were the product of ethnic integration by blood, and in some places simply called them Tatar-Mongols. It is also a nation with its own distinctive national characteristics, with its own culture and writing, and has established a strong regime in Eastern Europe.
Andrei's hometown of Naberezhny Yecherny is in the northeast of the Tatar SSR, on the left bank of the Kama River, the largest left tributary of the Volga River, 1,200 km east of Moscow, and 260 km from Kazan, the capital of the Tatar SSR.
500 years ago, it was once a dependency of the Golden Horde, one of the four khanates of the Mongol Empire, and after the partition of the Golden Horde, it was the Kazan Khanate founded by the Tatar nobleman Ulu-Muhammad who ruled the area for more than 100 years. Historically, the Soviet Union began to build the Kama Automobile Plant in Cherny in the early 70s, and the city developed rapidly and became one of the famous automobile cities in the Soviet Union.
On the morning of January 19, Lin Jun embarked on a journey of "returning to his hometown" and went to the "hometown" he had never been to. He and the rest of his group will arrive in Kazan by train and then by car to Cherny.
The retinue is still the same as before, but except for his wife, the other three have been promoted to one level, and it is estimated that this is the last time that Fekochinov and Snornik will travel with him as an entourage.
On the morning of the 20th, Lin Jun, who got up, put on his senior officer's winter uniform, without any medals on it: he would arrive in Kazan today, and the weather outside the car was too cold, and it would be very uncomfortable to put on a military coat on a uniform jacket full of medals.
On the shoe rack next to the sleeper are the tall military boots that I took off last night, these are custom-made boots made from the finest calfskin, top quality and very soft, easy to put on without the help of others, and they don't look too soft when put on. These boots are actually not the Soviet Army's standard senior officer boots, but the style is the same, and the general Soviet Army is common in winter (this "universal" is the military boots that are equipped in the Soviet Army and distributed to the vast majority of troops, which corresponds to polar military boots and subtropical military boots, etc., just like the clothing rationing of our army, because of the huge difference in regional climate, the clothing rationing of troops in different regions is different. The military boots are slightly bloated than it, and Lin Jun has exactly two pairs of such boots.
The boots are lined with a short, dense layer of marmot skin, which feels very good on the hind feet: very smooth but does not hinder long hiking. These boots were not the handiwork of Soviet shoemakers, as they were a farewell gift from Kong Xiangxi to Lin Jun. Although the Soviet Union's Siberia also produces marmots, the quality of the fur is by no means as good as that from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, because the Siberian marmot has looser fur and a slightly longer length, while the marmot on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has shorter fur but denser.
Kong Xiangxi gave Lin Jun these boots because the winter in Russia is not good, and there is snow everywhere, although the weather is dry and cold, but if people walk in the snow for a long time, the body will also receive the erosion of moisture, and this marmot skin is the best "cloth" to remove moisture, but ordinary people do not have such a good treatment. At that time, Lin Jun was also moved when he received this gift, he didn't expect Kong Xiangxi to give him this gift, and he also asked people to inquire about the size of his shoes.
Although Kong Xiangxi is a guy with many shortcomings, and his meaning and form are too different from Lin Jun's, it seems that he really regards Lin Jun as a friend and a trustworthy little brother. Lin Jun knew that these boots were precious, and maybe the powerful could get such boots, but only friends would have such considerations.
Many people know that marmot skin keeps warm and dispels dampness, but they don't know its other characteristic: Lin Jun will not feel hot when wearing it in a heated carriage, and when it comes to the outdoors, the temperature at night reaches as low as minus 30 degrees, and Lin Jun's feet will not feel cold if he only wears a pair of cotton socks and then wears it. Ordinary wool boots can't do this: the temperature difference of more than 40 degrees has to be changed.
As soon as I put on my boots, there was a knock on the door outside the box, "Chief, are you going to the dining car to eat or ask the waiter to bring breakfast?" ”
It was Snornick who knocked on the door, and until he found a new "life lieutenant", he was still doing his duty seriously.
"You go to the dining car first, and I'll be here in a quarter of an hour." Since his wife hadn't gotten up yet, Lin Jun didn't open the door.
"Andre, you don't seem to be able to lift your spirits about returning to your hometown." The wife said as she got dressed.
"I'm a little tired these days, so many things have to be prepared, and you know that my impression of Cherny is basically a blank, talking about what to make up for the glory of returning to his hometown, but these days I am always thinking about when I can go back to Chukotka to see."
"Sometimes I want to be there, but I don't have much to do when I look at you."
Vukinskaya is well aware of how busy her husband's "vacation" was the other day, most of the vacation was spent in the city of Moscow, running in various departments, preparing for the future work. The husband is a conscientious and responsible soldier, so naturally he has no extra time to wander around.
After breakfast the train arrived in Kazan, where a group of local officials greeted them. Due to Lin Jun's "busy business", the group did not make too many stops in Kazan, but simply greeted each other and then took the prepared car to Cherny, which was 260 kilometers away.
It is not comfortable to travel long distances in the East European Plain in winter, and the temperature is minus 18 or 9 degrees Celsius during the day and the sun is shining, and if it is windy and snowy, the temperature will plummet. In order to arrive in Cherny smoothly in the afternoon, the local department prepared a convoy of five cars for Lin Jun to use, and the drivers were the most experienced comrades, except for the accompanying officials.
Fortunately, there were no accidents that happened last year while driving in the Urals, and everything went well. An hour after dark, the convoy arrived in Cherné.
Early the next morning, Lin Jun finally saw the bronze bust of himself, which was erected on the most important workers' street in Cherny, next to the largest local workers' cultural palace. Due to the reason of "secrecy", Lin Jun did not know what the image of his bronze statue was, and he had an expectation in his heart.
The bronze statue was covered with a red cloth, which reminded Lin Jun of the memories of his previous life: Could it be that the unveiling ceremony is the same all over the world? Before it was unveiled, it was only clear that the bronze statue had a marble square pedestal more than one person high, and when Lin Jun pulled down the red cloth during the ceremony, he had to applaud the person who made it: Andre was dressed in a flight suit without any extra accessories on it, and his eyes were firmly looking ahead. His resume and achievements were engraved on the pedestal, and the warm applause of the crowd who participated in the ceremony at the moment of his unveiling made Lin Jun feel proud.
There were tens of thousands of Cherny people who braved the cold to come to the scene, and they were all heroes who wanted to see their hometown. Lin Jun, who returned to the open-air rostrum on the side of the bronze statue, looked at the cheering crowd: "They are cheering for the heroes of their hometown and are proud of themselves!" ”
Accompanied by Cherny******** Nikolai Yanushko-Petrovich, and several other local comrades, Lin Jun and his men also visited Chernny's machine school and factory, and Lin Jun also made enthusiastic speeches on several occasions.
At noon on the 23rd, Lin Jun visited the dock and shipyard on the banks of the Kama River.
"Comrade Andrey, in the future we will build a dam on the Kama River to make better use of its water resources."
"Comrade Petrovich, this plan is very good, the Kama River is rich in resources, and the geographical conditions of the upper reaches are also suitable for water conservancy construction, and after a full investigation, your plan can be reported to Moscow."
"It's still early, the investigation has just begun, and it is estimated that in a few decades there will be a huge water hub here." Looking forward to the future, this ******** comrade looks proud.
Lin Jun knew that what he said was true, and that in a few decades there would be a giant reservoir with a total capacity of 12.9 billion cubic meters and a large hydropower station, the Lower Kama Hydropower Station, but the project did not start until 1963, and all of it was completed in 1979.
After visiting the shipyard, Lin Jun and his entourage said goodbye to Cherny and returned to Moscow on a transport plane waiting at the airport when facing the ice. In just these two days, Lin Jun has fallen in love with the small city of Cherny, which makes him feel like a special hometown relative. Everyone here is proud of themselves and welcomes them like family. Would have liked to stay here for a few more days, but he had to rush back to Moscow because tomorrow was a special day.
On January 24, 1938, the twentieth anniversary of the founding of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army and the Red Navy of the Soviet Union, a grand military parade will be held in Moscow.
