Nanyang Bei Tingfang didn't do any achievements, he was already a lieutenant general, and Lao Tzu was born and died, and he only got two stars. Yang Tianfeng was slandered in his heart, but he nodded again and again, smiling and expressing his gratitude.
"Brother Ma, if you have something to say together, there must be something else, right?" Yang Tianfeng quickly collected his emotions and asked directly as if he was guessing.
"Hehe, hehe." Ma Yuming laughed twice and asked rhetorically, "Then what is Brother Yang looking for me?" I know, it must be a good thing, Brother Yang always thinks about his brother. β
"Of course, it's a good thing, so that Brother Ma can take a step higher." Yang Tianfeng pondered for a moment and said, "In this way, you say it first, and I will talk about it, how about it?" β
"Okay, I'll start with that." Ma Yuming thought for a moment and said slowly: "Brother Yang is now pointing the spearhead of the attack at Shangqiu, and there will definitely be a confrontation with Zhang Lanfeng's troops. If Brother Yang can slow down, he may be able to surrender without a fight. β
Yang Tianfeng narrowed his eyes, his mind was spinning rapidly, and he probably guessed some reasons. He snorted and said, "Brother Ma's people are doing Zhang Lanfeng's work? I don't know what conditions the government gives? β
Ma Yuming hesitated for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Zhang Lanfeng has more than eighteen thousand guns, so-"
"It's just a chicken, a dog." Yang Tianfeng pursed his lips disdainfully and said, "Brother Ma doesn't believe in the strength of the Three Verticals? Don't believe I can beat Zhang Lanfeng to the ground? β
"No, no, Ma absolutely believes in the combat effectiveness of the Three Columns and the military ability of Brother Yang." Ma Yuming paused and said, "But wouldn't it be better if it could make it anyway, without a single shot, without injuring a single person?" β
"Zhang Lanfeng won't be right." Yang Tianfeng shook his head very firmly and said, "If Brother Ma wants to make contributions, he might as well do more of his work." For example, Cao Dazhong, the commander of the first road, Song Kebin, the commander of the second road, and Sun Jingxuan, the commander of the third road, are much more reliable than Zhang Lanfeng, a hardcore traitor. β
In addition to a lot of rabble, Zhang Lanfeng also collected a lot of defeated generals of the National X Army, these people were expedient, forced to be helpless, and Zhang Lanfeng was not of the same mind. Historically, Cao Dazhong, Song Kebin, and Sun Jingxuan took advantage of Zhang Lanfeng's temporary departure in 1940 to pull more than 10,000 people away.
At this time, Ma Yuming and the military commander really wanted to do Zhang Lanfeng's work, persuaded him to do it anyway, and got quite superior conditions from the national government: the commander of the new Seventh Army, 500,000 yuan for promotion......
"Brother Yang can't slow down and become a complete brother?" Ma Yuming looked at Yang Tianfeng with some pleading.
Yang Tianfeng sighed and said, "Military operations are interlocking, and if you take a slow step, you may fail!" Brother Ma, please think about it, if Zhang Lanfeng has the heart to be right, with his troops, it will be enough to destroy the Japanese army in Shangqiu. Even if he didn't dare to fight the devils, he would have a lot of reasons to pull the troops out at this opportunity. The current situation is in my favor, Zhang Lanfeng is in vain, but he is not willing to do it. When the Japanese reinforcements arrived, his attitude became clear. β
"This-" Ma Yuming still wanted to fight for it, and said, "It's just Brother Yang's guess." β
"Did I miss my guess?" Yang Tianfeng rolled his eyes and said: "If Brother Ma wants to make contributions, just do what I said, do the work of Cao Dazhong, Song Kebin, and Sun Jingxuan, which is a hundred sets better than wasting work on Zhang Lanfeng, a hardcore traitor." β
"Well, you're done, it's my turn." Yang Tianfeng raised his hand to interrupt Ma Yuming, got up and took the briefcase, took out a stack of information documents from it, and handed it to Ma Yuming.
"This isβ" Ma Yuming flipped through slightly, not very clearly.
The basic concept of radar was formed at the beginning of the twentieth century. However, it was not until around the Second World War that radar was rapidly developed, especially in the United Kingdom, and the United States was also very advanced in technology.
In 1936, the United States developed a pulse radar for detecting aircraft with a range of 40 kilometers and a resolution of 457 meters. In 1938, Britain had set up an early warning radar chain on the mainland coastline near France to observe enemy aircraft, and played an important role in World War II.
Yang Tianfeng wanted to make a radar first, but the electronic components required were not ordinary, and some of them were even more difficult to obtain. Next year, the Japanese army will begin a large-scale bombardment of Chongqing, Chengdu, and other important rear areas, and if the government can go all out to develop them, it will of course be faster than the small Yongcheng base area, and there will be a greater hope of success.
"This is the latest technology in the United Kingdom, which can detect aircraft and play an early warning role." Yang Tianfeng briefly introduced, "With the help of the national government, it is possible to develop it and use it to prevent Japanese bombing. Chongqing has been bombed several times, this technology can be described as a top priority, and it can be regarded as a great achievement for Brother Ma and the military commander, right? Moreover, I not only got the drawings, but also found the most powerful talent in China, Mr. Shu Xingbei, and as long as I relied on him, I would definitely be able to make radar. β
Shu Xingbei, known as "China's Einstein" by industry insiders, is an international science master and "the world's first talent", a world-class physicist on the same level as Wang Ganchang, and he designed and manufactured China's earliest radar.
He had direct contact with Einstein and won praise from the British physicist Bohr and the famous scholar Joseph Needham. It took him just over a year to earn a master's degree from the University of Edinburgh and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After returning to China, Shu Xingbei taught at Zhejiang University and Shandong University, and also trained genius physicists such as Tsung-Dao Lee, Chien-shiung Wu, and Cheng Kaijia.
If it is said that Mr. Shu Xingbei was able to be borrowed from the Technical Research Office of the Chongqing Military Command Department in 1944 and successfully develop the radar with his colleagues in the spring of 1945, then with the drawings and materials provided by Yang Tianfeng and the early start of work, there is still great hope for success by next year.
The Japanese bombing of Chongqing was divided into stages, from the beginning of 1938 to the end of 1938, mainly exploratory bombing. The sorties were relatively small, mostly from the Army Air Corps. At the end of December of the same year, after the capture of Wuhan, the army began to carry out strategic bombing of Chongqing. In May 1939, the bombing was carried out by the navy.
The famous May 354 bombing has taken place, causing a fire in the center of Chongqing for two days, burning commercial streets to rubble, killing 3,991 people, injuring 2,323 people, damaging 4,889 buildings, and leaving about 200,000 people homeless; The Luohan Temple and Chang'an Temple were also engulfed in flames, and at the same time, foreign churches, Britain, France, and other foreign embassies in China were bombed, and even the German embassy with the Nazi flag was not spared.
After listening to Yang Tianfeng's explanation, Ma Yuming felt that it was very reasonable, that such top-secret information involving Britain's highest scientific and technological achievements, if in the name of military command, could reduce the losses of Chongqing, where Chairman Chiang was located, in the air raid, would indeed be a great achievement.
Moreover, Yang Tianfeng took out not only radar, but also Soviet-made M1939 37mm anti-aircraft guns, which are already weapons supplies that will be cut off after the Soviet Union and Japan signed a treaty.
Due to Yang Tianfeng's vigorous contribution and the technical exchanges he promoted, the level of military production in the Yongcheng base area and the rear area has been greatly improved. The quality of gun steel and special steel has been greatly improved, and although there are still great difficulties in manufacturing large-caliber rifled barrel guns, weapons such as the M1939 37-mm anti-aircraft gun can still be completed by using drawings to imitate and get twice the result with half the effort. The arsenal in the Yongcheng base area has already made a successful attempt.
It's all air defense equipment, Ma Yuming understood what Yang Tianfeng meant, and this is indeed a major test that the rear has to face now and in the future.
"Brother Yang insists on beating Zhang Lanfeng, does he want to win the official number?" Ma Yuming sighed, Yang Tianfeng had already taken out enough chips, and he could only make a final effort.
"I have that mind, but not all." Yang Tianfeng took a sip of wine and said slowly: "What's more important is that you can't leave hidden dangers in eastern Henan. Zhang Lanfeng is accustomed to both ends of the head rat and the rudder when he sees the wind, even if he is anyway, with his troops, he can't count on the war against Japan. In this way, not only will they receive food for nothing, but I will also have to beware of them in a critical moment. β
After a pause, Yang Tianfeng continued: "The comrades-in-arms I chose are capable of fighting and resolute in resisting Japan, such as the First Cavalry Division, the Fourteenth Cavalry Brigade, and the Third Group Army, but I don't want a bastard like Zhang Lanfeng." Brother Ma, you know what I mean, right? β
Ma Yuming nodded with a wry smile and said, "Brother Yang thinks long-term, and what he said is also very reasonable. Okay, I asked my subordinates to focus their work on Zhang Lanfeng's subordinates, hoping to have some effect. β
"Whether it has any effect or not, it's not up to the war report to read." Yang Tianfeng smiled faintly and said, "As long as Zhang Lanfeng's men and horses dare to come out of Shangqiu, they will inevitably be wiped out. After the big victory, I can say in the battle report that the battlefield of such and such an officer is anyway, and it can be regarded as Brother Ma's work was not done in vain. β
"Thank you so much!" Ma Yuming raised his glass and said: "This time in eastern Henan, Ma said to Boss Dai to fight for the name of the new Seventh Army for Brother Yang. I'm chick, what kind of thing is Zhang Lanfeng, he is also worthy of being a military commander? β
Ma Yuming's tone changed sharply, Yang Tianfeng smiled secretly in his heart, raised his glass and touched it, and the conversation in the future became much more harmonious.
"Brother Yang has won successive battles and regained lost territory one after another, this Suzhou Prefecture is not very suitable." Ma Yuming thought about it and said: "The Henan-Anhui border area is more vague, but it has a lot of room for expansion. The state government is implementing the integration of military and political affairs, and Brother Yang can strive for an administrative position, and with the government affairs team of the Suzhou Prefecture and the strength of the three verticals, there should be no big problem. Of course, Brother Yang soon became the deputy commander-in-chief of the guerrillas in the Henan-Anhui border region, Sun Tongxuan was not in charge of affairs, and he had a very good relationship with Brother Yang, so it was unlikely that he would fight with Brother Yang in government affairs. If Kaifeng can be captured, and eastern and western Henan can be garrisoned separately, there will be no conflict. (To be continued.) )
