Volume 1 Turbulent Era Chapter 219 and the King

There were not many people who could let Fang Zida go to the station to greet him. There were only a few people except for a few bigwigs in Beijing, Wu Peifu on Qingdao and Yang Du who stayed in Fengtian for the time being. However, Fang Zida, who came to Beijing today, had to pick him up in person because he was one of these people.

And with great fanfare, Fang Zida arrived at the station in a low-key manner. After waiting in the VIP waiting room for more than ten minutes, the guards came to report the train and immediately entered the station.

He stood up with Yang Yongtai and walked towards the platform. However, Jiuyi train slowly stopped on the platform. Fang Zida had good eyesight and soon found the guest who had just got off the bus in the crowd and strode over.

"Brother Leshu, I worked hard all the way."

"I'm sorry, Brother Jun Ming has been waiting for a long time."

They did not stop at the platform for much longer. Both sides shook hands, and a guard took Chen Yu's luggage. The group quickly left the expressway.

After getting in the car, Chen Feng smiled and said, "Fortunately, Brother Jung, everything is fine."

"Take it seriously?" Fang Zida asked in surprise.

"Of course, take it seriously!" Chen Feng patted his chest and promised: "There will never be any problem after multiple tests. Its power is exactly what we expected when we designed it."

"Okay! That's great!" Fang Zida looked happy and rubbed his hands excitedly. Even Yang Yongtai, who knew some inside information, was extremely excited.

"It's just..." Chen Ju frowned slightly. Fang Zida immediately felt relieved after hearing his words: "Because time is too tight, we have only temporarily made the last product."

"Hahaha. Why? This is enough for me to have this cross!" Fang Zida breathed a sigh of relief, laughed a few times, and then asked again: "Brother Leshu, there is no shortage of shells, right? Don't tell me that I don't even have all shells."

"How is this possible!" Chen Ju waved his hand and said very angry: "I have prepared five bases of shells. If there is not enough, it will be enough for the Japanese to drink a pot."

"That's good!" Fang Zida's heart was completely relieved. With Chen Ju's guarantee, the next plan was foolproof. When he thought of these powerful killing weapons, Fang Zida's heart was not worth mentioning how much complacent there was.

"There is no problem with Leshu, cannon trucks, and shell transportation, right? I won't reveal the news, right?" Yang Yongtai paid more attention to details and asked after thinking about it.

"Absolutely don't worry, I've arranged all this." Chen Ju said with confidence and told Fang Zida and Yang Yongtai about his arrangements. From the Nanjing Arsenal to the north, the artillery trucks were transported separately in separate parts, and the shells were only packed with ordinary shells to cover up. There were also guards from the arsenal and the guards drawn by the Eighth Army for escort along the way, so that no matter what happened, the secrets would be leaked after arriving at the destination. After arriving at the destination, the technicians who set out separately would be assembled and debugged. In this way, even if there were any small problems on the way, the secret would not be disclosed.

"good!"

Fang Zida praised. The three of them continued to talk for a while, and soon the car arrived at the residence that Fang Zida specially arranged for Chen Ju.

After settling down Chen Ju, Fang Zida asked about the progress of military industry. As the military industry system became more and more perfect with Fang Zida's support, Chen Ju officially took over as the director half a year ago and was promoted to the rank of lieutenant general.

As a weapon expert, being able to achieve results in the fields he is good at is something Chen Feng dreamed of when he was studying. Since Fang Zida started him and received a lot of financial support, Chen Feng has devoted himself to the military industry and took out a large number of weapons such as rifles, grenades, mortars, grenades, grenades, grenades, etc., which have equipped the army in large or small batches. At the same time, after repeated experiments and designs over the past few years, the powerful rocket launcher was finally finalized and production, but the time was too tight, and after half a month of hard work, only the ten rocket launchers were driven out, but for Fang Zida, these ten rocket launchers were enough.

This time, Chen Ju went north. On the one hand, he sent the ten rocket launchers to the Northeast battlefield at Fang Zida's request, personally conducted actual combat tests and collected data. On the other hand, he also came to Beijing to report to Fang Zida and negotiated the later research direction of military industry.

"The temporary work of various research institutes and military factories is still mainly based on conventional weapons, mainly to continue to imitate the rifles, machine guns and various cannons of various countries, and based on it, we have begun to design weapons suitable for our equipment. The shipbuilding research of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau has been smooth. Last year, a 10,000-ton cargo ship was just built, and according to the plan, there are still three 10,000-ton cargo ships that can be moored this year. However, due to the quality of steel plates produced by steel mills, the manufacturing cost has remained high. In addition, a large amount of plates can only be imported from the United States due to the war. This is our weakness..."

Sitting down in the room and taking a few sips of tea, Chen Ju talked about work without even having to rest. Fang Zida hadn't met Chen Ju for some time, and just happened to want to hear about the progress in the military industry.

Listening to Chen Ju's statement, Fang Zida was happy and worried. What was happy was that so far there were no problems in manufacturing various light weapons in military enterprises. Even some heavy weapons were gradually successfully imitated and began to redesign them with the equipment and combat habits of the Chinese team. The experience accumulation of shipbuilding industry has also made good progress. Through enterprise rectification and adjustment, major military factories, manufacturing plants, etc. have all emitted new energy and developed at a surprising speed.

However, these are just primary military industry, and compared with the world powers, China's military industry enterprises are still very weak. In particular, the basic manufacturing industry, such as steel and casting, are far behind countries, and even Japan is not as good as that. Because of these shortcomings, many military manufacturing can only use imported materials to ensure quality, which is equivalent to increasing costs in disguise. If it is only used during primary design and finalization, it is still possible to say that once large-scale production is required, the demand cannot be met at all.

As for the current main achievements of the military industry, such as new weapons such as mortars, grenade launchers, rocket launchers, etc., these are not too high-tech. To put it bluntly, except for the some confidentiality of the fuel propulsion system of the rocket launcher, the other parts are not worth mentioning. If they are placed in broad daylight for everyone to visit, they will be manufactured with the technological capabilities of the great powers. This is also the main reason why Fang Zida hid the rocket launcher tightly, tried to protect secrets and delay time.

"I have considered the steel matter. The quality of domestic iron ore is indeed unable to produce high-quality steel, especially in the production of some technical steel, which cannot meet the requirements. However, this cannot be changed immediately. For the time being, it is mainly based on some domestic and partially imported. I think this will change in a few years."

Fang Zida thought about it and replied that Chen Ju is a professional. Of course, he understands that what Fang Zida said is correct. Even if the ore is poor, even if the steel plant works hard to improve its level, it will not meet the requirements. Since Fang Zida has considered this, Chen Ju nodded slightly and stopped mentioning this matter.

"There are several aspects that I hope Mr. Leshu will pay attention to."

After talking about Steel, Fang Zida's expression became solemn and said.

"Please tell me." Chen Ju quickly took out a small notebook, took out a tap fountain pen from his pocket, and began to record.

"I suggest that in the future, high-power engines, semi-automatic, automatic weapons and cannons of all caliber will be the main research."

"I can understand the following, as for the engine..." Chen Feng was a little surprised. Yang Yongtai, who had not spoken for a long time, also looked at Fang Zida with some confusion.

"Airplane!" Fang Zida said: "Airplane has been in the past for several years. On the battlefield in Europe, warring countries have begun to use aircraft as reconnaissance of enemy situations and directly used as air weapons, and have achieved good results. Although aircraft as war weapons do not have a great actual threat in the current war, the means of attacking the opponent are also very simple, and even both sides are flying planes with rifles or throwing small bombs down with manpower. At present, reconnaissance can only be used as a means of residence. However, it can be seen that this type of aircraft has a powerful potential ability. If there is a bombing aircraft that can strafuse the ground or the opponent's aircraft in the future, or the load is larger, and can tilt several tons or even dozens of tons of bombs to the ground troops in one breath?"

"Isn't this just being chased and beaten? He hits the ground from the sky and has no place to hide!" Yang Yongtai sighed in shock.

"This is indeed the reason." Fang Zida nodded.

"I understand." Chen Ju immediately reacted, wrote down the word "aircraft" on the notebook, and drew a bar heavily below.

"Leshu, have you heard of tanks?" Fang Zida asked again after briefly speaking.

"Tank?" Chen Ju frowned and thought for a while, and for a moment he couldn't remember the word.

"tank!" Fang Zida laughed in silence, and suddenly remembered that the word tank was translated as English. There was no such term yet, so he quickly changed to English.

"Water cabinet..." Chen Feng said subconsciously, and suddenly he seemed to remember something: "It seems that I have indeed heard of it... By the way, in Europe! Just the Western Front battlefield a while ago!"

"Yes!" Fang Zida took out a newspaper from his bag. This newspaper was recently published in Europe. It had a photo on it. The photo was a strange one. If the iron box was like a water cabinet, there were many wheels under the iron box, a group of panicked German soldiers were running around or staring at it slowly moving forward in an unstoppable way...

"This is tank! I also call it a tank!"
