Chapter 344: The Chinese's "Heavenly Eye"

The world's first radar was successfully developed, and the Huangyadong base was immersed in a jubilant atmosphere.

Tang Qiuli was keenly aware that this was a huge business opportunity, that country had radar, just like giving its own airspace, pressing clairvoyance and tailwind ears, dealing with high-altitude fighters, no longer having to be passively beaten, and waiting until the bomb was approaching, only to find out that the enemy plane was coming.

On the one hand, in World War II, the United States itself has not been attacked in any way, and there can be an absolutely stable production environment without any interference.

On the other hand, the manufacture of various components of the radar, at that time, China, could not produce at all, this is a sad decision, Tang Qiuli is extremely willing, the world's first radar birthplace of the glory, wear on the head of his motherland, unfortunately, the environment, conditions are not allowed, artillery fire, smoke everywhere in the Chinese land, how can a machine tool be placed safely?

He can only do this, it is really a helpless move, and in the United States, taking advantage of the transcendent position of the United States in the early stage of the war, he can sell radars all over the world, except for the country of the East and the villains, anyone can become his own customer, and the profits in this can be described as amazing, which is by no means excessive.

Encouraged by the success of the development of the first radar, Wang Xu and his engineers decided to work hard immediately, and they thought and did so, and the standardized production workshop was quickly renovated, and a large number of skilled workers with technical skills were mobilized from the logistics department to train a group of technical backbones.

Then, they were embarrassed to find that in the warehouse of the logistics department of the Huangyadong base area, there was no inventory of electronic components, tubes, transistors, etc., needed to make radar.

The matter was reported to Tang Qiuli, and the solution he proposed was very simple: buy and import a large number of them from abroad, and the quantity of the imported must meet the needs of the radar manufactured, which can be equipped with all anti-aircraft weapons on the Chinese battlefield, and ensure that there is a large amount of inventory.

Tang Qiuli asked Wang Xu to make a list of things that need to be purchased, and then with a big stroke of the pen, he purchased more than twice the number of lists, he knew that in another year or two, the price of these things would be more than ten times the current price, and many times, you have money in your hands, and technology can't buy the goods.

The procurement list was transferred to the hands of Zhang Quan, the minister of logistics, he habitually gasped, clicked his mouth, Wang Xu's heart was in his throat, he knew too well the character of his old man, and he was distressed to spend a penny, not to mention that the current amount is so large, if Zhang Quan does not agree, or does not allocate funds according to the original plan, the division commander has no choice, and he knows the temper of this "family tiger".

The fact that the Independent Division can have such abundant financial resources now is of course that Tang Qiuli has the way to make money, and Zhang Quan's merits, in a sense, surpass Tang Qiuli, and it is precisely because of this that he has won the respect and admiration of all the officers and soldiers of the Independent Division.

The amount of appropriation is indeed very huge, which has Tang Qiuli's far-reaching considerations, building a factory in the United States, these components must be purchased in advance, and the all-out war is a treasure that is difficult to find, the factory in the United States is not profitable at present, and it has to rely on the continuous blood transfusion of independent divisions, once it is profitable, it is astronomical.

Zhang Quanba finished his mouth and looked up at Wang Xu, Wang Xu was very worried in his heart, and asked, "Is that all?" Is it possible? Do you want to add more? ”

Oops, the sun is coming out in the west, and the phrase "additional budget" came out of the mouth of "Zhang Jiahu", this is the first time, could it be that the world has changed? Wang Xu almost doubted his ears.

In fact, Zhang Quan also wanted to understand a lot of problems, he found an interesting rule, as long as the division commander spends a lot of money, it is guaranteed to earn back several times, and now the family of the independent division is in Zhang Quan's heart, not to mention spending this little money, it is enough to buy the entire Beiping City, and all of them are hard currency, silver dollars and gold.

Zhang Quan immediately arranged for the remittance to the United States, and this qiē was handed over to Zhu Zixuan, an old man who had been in the United States to take care of Tang Qiuli's overseas business.

Tang Qiuli sent another telegram, informing the old man Zhu Zixuan in detail of the plan to build a factory in the United States, asking him to make all the preparations, and he would send a special person to the United States in the near future.

Wang Xu sorted out the technical data on the development and production of radar in detail, which was about 100 pages, and Tang Qiuli asked the 10 soldiers of the Special Guard who had followed him to Germany and Finland to serve as the important task of sending Song's technical data to the United States.

Tang Qiuli did not want to follow the name used by the Europeans and the radar, he gave the radar an authentic Chinese name called "Sky Eye Monitoring System", and the future trademark will be called Sky Eye, which is completely an invention of the Chinese themselves, destined to change the pattern of world air warfare, and it will become the pride of the Chinese.

When he explained the task to the 10 soldiers of the special guard unit who were responsible for delivering materials to the United States, he solemnly told them that these things are more important than your lives, and once you find that you cannot guarantee the safe delivery of the materials on the way to the United States, or because of other factors, the materials may be lost, and you must destroy these materials and use your lives and the honor of the soldiers as a guarantee to ensure that the mission is completed.

Tang Qiuli had to be more careful, his main guard was the Japanese who were like mad dogs, and the Japanese were interested in Tang Qiuli and the independent division, and it was difficult to ensure that this trip to the United States would not leak the news.

Using the only rough-looking "eye in the sky," the air defense units began a new type of training.

There is no target aircraft, the soldiers do it themselves, make a large number of kites, and more ingenious fighters make the kites like real airplanes, vividly, pull the kite up and down every day, lift the air and slide, try to imitate the flight action of the aircraft, and use the local method, the soldiers quickly became familiar with the basic operation essentials of the eye of the sky.

Tang Qiuli also mobilized a large number of building materials from Pingjin and focused on building radar stations in two places.

To build a radar station within a radius of 100 kilometers with Dingbian City as the center, the requirement is that there are no radar blind spots and blind spots, so as to ensure that Japanese planes will be discovered 500 kilometers away, and that the air defense corps on Dingbian will have sufficient time to prepare.

Dingbian is his baby's heart, there are not only troops, but also civilians, as well as a large number of newly built industrial and mining enterprises, he does not want the Japanese planes to bomb indiscriminately, turning Dingbian into a ruin and a hell on earth.

Therefore, Dingbian is a key air defense area, and the air defense corps of the Dingbian Garrison Command is at the brigade level, with eight air defense detachments under its jurisdiction, and the sky in Dingbian is protected like an iron bucket.

There is also the Huangya Cave in the center of the Taihang Mountain Base Area, which is another key target that needs to be protected, once the Sino-Japanese War starts, the Huangya Cave is within the best range of the Japanese army's aviation force stationed in North China, the plane of the little devil can not often come here, the Japanese army cannot win on the ground, and it must be fished back in the sky, and the air battles here are more intense and frequent than other places.

Fortunately, the Huangya Cave itself is a pure barracks, there are no civilians, and they are all hidden in the caves, and the planes of the little devils can't take much advantage, and if they are well arranged, they can exhaust the air power of the Japanese army in North China.

With Huangyadong as the center and within a radius of 50 kilometers, the combination of underground concealed radar stations and vehicle-mounted mobile radars can flexibly and maneuverably monitor threats from the air.

The matter of Huangyadong came to an end, and Tang Qiuli returned to Beiping, where there were still a lot of government and military affairs waiting for him to deal with.

After the reorganization and expansion of the independent division in Huangyadong, Tang Qiuli can now be described as strong and strong.

There were eight infantry brigades, four artillery brigades (three artillery brigades were reorganized soon after according to actual needs), five cavalry brigades, one special operations detachment, one Huangyadong garrison brigade, and one recruit supplement brigade, with a total strength of more than 146,000 troops.

If the troops of the 29th Army are counted, there are seven cavalry brigades with more than 170,000 people, and with Tang Qiuli's current strength, he is very sure that at the beginning of the war with the Japanese, he will be able to annihilate all the main forces of the Japanese army in North China on the Great Plain of North China, and completely contain the pace of the Japanese invasion of the whole of China in North China, and cannot move south half a step.

After returning to Beiping, Tang Qiuli spent a few days to deal with the government affairs that had been accumulated during this period of time, and finally had time to talk about the current situation in Pingjin, Shen Jun, director of the Investigation Department of the Independent Division, who had been staying in Beiping.

Shen Jun has looked for him many times, but he has not had time, Shen Jun, who was sitting opposite Tang Qiuli, was much thinner than when he left Beiping to go to Xi'an, and his face was full of exhaustion.

Fortunately, the 29th Army was stationed in the Pingjin area, and the Japanese garrison army in North China was relatively honest during this period and did not make any small moves, especially after the 29th Army was supplemented by Tang Qiuli, the level of equipment was greatly improved, and the heavy firepower was greatly strengthened, which invisibly formed a deterrent to the Japanese army.

Without the Japanese making trouble, Shen Jun was able to devote all his energy to public security and intelligence work in Pingjin and Tianjin, and established an intelligence network covering the Pingjin area, which was a system that was in water with the intelligence of independent divisions, and another intelligence system in parallel, and Tang Qiuli's purpose was to have multiple channels for obtaining intelligence, and to verify the authenticity and value of intelligence.

Since Mei Ting returned to Beiping, she insisted on resigning from the post of director of the Inspection Department of the Pingjin Garrison Command, Tang Qiuli regretted this girl's talent in detection and intelligence work, and persuaded her many times.

Helpless, Mei Ting, this girl is determined not to do it, since the relationship with Tang Qiuli was formalized, this girl expressed great disgust with her previous work, and said that if Tang Qiuli forced her to be the director of the inspection department, she would go back to Nanjing and complain to Chairman Jiang.
