Chapter 19: "Harem" and "Jet Power Laboratory"
North of Baotou, at the foot of Yin Mountain.
After more than a month of air and rail transportation, all kinds of large-scale equipment needed by the Bureau of Weapons Experiment and Research were finally in place, and the relocation mission was successfully completed.
In order to allow scientists from afar to carry out research work as soon as possible, many infrastructure departments have directly started the three-shift mode.
With the concerted efforts of the comrades, the factory buildings and dormitories with brick and stone structures as the main body have risen on the wasteland of the past.
In view of the importance of the Bureau of Weapons Experiment and Research to the border area, the army reorganization experts also specially transferred a main regiment to be stationed in the surrounding area, which is responsible for the security of the department and trivial chores.
Before the official start of construction, Huang He held a small internal meeting with his own students, and finally decided to divide the bureau into five departments.
Huang is directly responsible for the affairs of a section, and the current topic is to study the follow-up development models of unguided rocket weapons such as the Red Sun and the Red Arrow.
The leader of the second department is still Shan Wenbao, and all the design and experiments related to piston aircraft are carried out here.
The business content of the three departments has changed dramatically compared with a year ago.
The original work of this section was to develop new infantry equipment that was more in line with the habits and tactics of our army on the basis of French-style weapons. After the overall relocation of the Research Bureau, the above-mentioned operations have been handed over to the Military Industrial Bureau of the Crossing Strong.
After the reorganization, the three divisions bring together the top radio, sonar, and radar talents in the whole TG, and they are committed to developing more cutting-edge equipment for the troops.
As for the newly established Fourth and Fifth Departments?
The person in charge of these two brand-new departments, who is naturally the deputy director of the Weapons Experiment and Research Bureau, is Huang's younger brother: learning is like a forest.
The core project of the former is nuclear physics, and the department code name is the boudoir. The ultimate goal is to cultivate a big girl who is like a flower and jade, and send warm greetings to neighboring countries.
Well, warmth on a physical level.
The latter, officially known as the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and codenamed Yueli Chang'e, is currently working on a long-range surface-to-surface ballistic missile.
In short, the overall state of the current Weapons Experiment and Research Bureau can be described as full of vitality and competition among all things.

March 13, 1942, 12 noon, Director's Office.
After reviewing the summary documents of the various departments from last month, Huang He put down his pen, rubbed his sore wrist, pushed away the chair and stood up from his seat.
As if hearing the movement inside the house, Wang Dexing, the guard who was on standby outside the door, knocked lightly on the door.
"Director, two telegrams arrived from the communications office this morning. One of them was from the Liugong Island Naval Military School, signed by Principal Xiao and Brigadier Li. ”
"The second telegram was sent by an army reorganization expert and the director of the Baotou No. 1 Machinery Factory, and the specific content needs to be checked and handled by you personally."
As soon as these words came out, a look of interest immediately appeared on Huang He's face.
In his boring daily work, telegrams from the outside world can be regarded as one of the few ways for him to have fun. What's more, the two copies in the hands of their own guards have a high probability of strong news.
"Come in!"
After getting the approval, Wang Dexing pushed the door and strode into the house. He placed a folder on his desk, then stepped aside to wait for further instructions.
When I opened the first telegram, the first thing that caught my eye was a dozen lines of joyful text.
"Lao Huang:
I miss it for many days, hehe!
Brother, I have recently developed and have already been qualified to secretly talk to the brigade commander behind my back. The seafood in the Jiaodong area tastes really good, and I will ask someone to air transport it to the army reorganization experts and you another day.
······
······
By the way, what's going on with night vision devices? Comrades are waiting.
Brother, Li Yunlong."
I don't know why, when I saw the word hehe, Huang He immediately made up for the big white teeth of his fellow countryman.
"Haha, this Li Yunlong is really a drunkard, not in wine. There are more than 100 words sprinkled in front of me, and I think it's all to pave the way for the last sentence. ”
Huang He shook his head, and the corners of his mouth had not been lowered since he opened the telegram.
"But it is also said that it is indeed time to prepare a batch of night vision devices for the airborne troops and the main forces, so as to save comrades from being tied on the battlefield."
In the current North China battlefield, the Japanese army has realized one thing:
Whether it is a large-scale battle at the army level, or a small-scale operation in the form of a wing or even a brigade, they are almost always the suppressed side during the day.
The disparity in firepower and the loss of air supremacy make the devils more inclined to operate at night.
After all, in the dark, the artillery, armored corps, and air force of the Eighth Route Army will be weakened to a certain extent. If the tactics are used correctly, they can even have a wave of night battles and melee combat.
Some time ago, during the military operation in the Jiaodong area, the 1st Marine Brigade also encountered a similar situation.
Relying solely on flares carried by artillery support companies is too limited. Turning on the lights of a tank can show the way, but doing so will inevitably reveal your own location and whereabouts.
This is the reason why Li Yunlong sent a telegram to his fellow villagers to ask about the progress of night vision devices.
Thinking of this, Huang He concentrated his mind, opened the Awaken Brave Tiger system in his mind, and found the target in the infantry technology that had been unlocked.
"Night Vision Device Type 1: The enemy can't see me, I can see that the enemy is the key to night fighting. The invention of infrared technology has enabled our army to equip its troops with night vision equipment.
Duration of the study: 70 days.
Effect: Military factories in the system can produce in-vehicle night vision devices."
The system is produced and must be a high-quality product.
This on-board night vision device, both in terms of performance and portability, is far superior to the Sparrowhawk that Desan gave to the Leopard G-type in the late war.
In normal weather, it is effective at a distance of up to a thousand meters.
Even in harsh environments, visibility of at least 600 meters is guaranteed.
Perhaps compared to the new equipment after the war, the paper data of the first type is not outstanding. But to deal with the devils who lack heavy firepower, the 1st Marine Brigade equipped with it can definitely kill all sides. (End of chapter)
