Comrade, your ingredients are too complicated.

August 1942, 8, the Eighth Route Army Xinxiang Airport in northern Henan.

After submitting Kulun's development plan and the new demands of the northern allies to the border area, Huang He and the army reorganization expert boarded the plane without stopping and headed straight for the last stop of this business trip.

After a long journey of several hours, two passenger and cargo aircraft converted from C-47 Skytrains arrived at the military district base on time under the escort of a formation of Air Force Mosquito fighters.

When the plane came to a complete stop, Huang He, dressed in summer uniform, jumped down from the tail door of the plane. He looked around and waved to the security guards at the airport.

"Hello, comrades. There are ten weapon boxes in the cargo hold of the silver-gray passenger plane. Please lend a hand and help the escort soldiers unload the cargo."

"By the way, be sure to handle it with care. Although the new equipment has already passed the reliability appraisal and acceptance test, it is still better to be careful and cautious when handling weapons."

"If you have any questions, please communicate promptly. Don't forget to ask Mr. Xu to sign the acceptance documents after you arrive."

"Yes! Promise to complete the mission!"

Just as Huang He was giving instructions to the guard company and reminding the soldiers to be careful on the road, the leading company captain Liu's mouth suddenly curled up slightly, as if he had seen something interesting.

Living in wartime, even scientists are very vigilant, especially those like Huang He who have suffered great losses.

The moment he sensed someone approaching from behind, he turned around abruptly. He saw a middle-aged man wearing glasses, moving stealthily around the dog. Anyone could tell that he was up to something bad.

"Hey, Brigadier General, long time no see!"

"If I remember correctly, you have been on the Shanxi-Hebei border alone to defend against General Okamura Yasuji's North China Front Army. How come you have time to come to Xinxiang today?"

"Could it be that Mr. Xu is too busy and wants your brigade to come to Henan Province to help?"

As a fellow fun-loving person, Huang naturally would not spoil the fun. He decisively pretended to be frightened and satisfied the brigade commander's bad taste with his somewhat lame performance.

After a while of fighting, Huang He first patted the other person's shoulder, which was obviously stronger, and then raised the questions in his mind.

In response to the concern of his colleagues, the brigade commander waved his hand casually.

"Hey, the North China Front Army has only a few troops left. It is just a lost dog in name only."

"If the border region had not moved too hastily in the past two years, and if each military region had not needed some time to consolidate the results of victory, otherwise our 129th Division alone would have been able to eliminate those division-level troops in one go."

"Besides, you don't know how strong the commander is. Without me, it won't have much impact on the overall situation."

After briefly explaining the current situation of the troops, the brigade commander took out a document from his shirt pocket. After handing it to Huang He, he continued:

"General Xu's side is developing very well. Both disaster relief and reconstruction and military-related work are going smoothly. Even if Tang and Jiang are combined, it will be difficult for them to affect the new military region."

"The main reason I came to Xinxiang is because of you, kid."

"When you first proposed Heshan University, the next campus was to be located in Hebei Province. The candidate for the campus president and political commissar was appointed to me by the border region and the headquarters. The document in your hand is the appointment letter signed by Zhan Hu himself."

As soon as these words were spoken, Huang He immediately understood why the brigade commander came to Xinxiang.

Yes, that is learning from infantry experts and exploring how to build an undergraduate university from scratch.

The reason for letting the brigade commander be the school district principal was also very simple. After all, he had been the principal of a military school before and was relatively more experienced than other comrades. The more capable, the more work. Isn't that the current situation in the border area?

"Hey, I didn't write the appointment letter, so just go to work obediently."

"By the way, what are the main disciplines of the branch school in Hebei Province? Have you made any progress in recruiting professors and selecting a site? Do we need the Weapons Experimental Research Bureau to send some people?"

"Even if we can't stay there permanently, our bureau can send representatives to choose one day a week to attend classes."

After more than a year of preparation, the Jin Province Campus of Heshan University officially opened in January 42. The campus mainly offers Chinese and Western medicine majors, and also has some humanities and social science colleges.

As the first undergraduate university in TG, it not only integrates the educational resources of the original province, but also absorbs talents from all walks of life from all corners of the world.

There is no way around it, because Guosu is so busy with military and economic issues that it is unable to support education.

If we want to preserve the flame of knowledge, Shanxi Province is the best choice in the country.

Huang He's self-recommendation immediately cheered up the brigade commander. The two of them were comrades who had fought side by side for many years, so there was no need to be pretentious when encountering problems and difficulties.

"What a timely relief! I was just worried about how to recruit professors."

"Regarding the Hebei branch school, the border region has tentatively decided to use engineering and science as its subject categories. If we can get the support of your Weapons Experimental Research Bureau, the preliminary preparations will surely go much more smoothly."

"Come on, let's talk in the car."

Seeing that the brigade commander was about to pull him into the car, Huang He quickly grabbed his arm. Mr. Nie hadn't arrived yet, and his junior was still on another skytrain, so it didn't matter if they left first.

Fortunately, the two of them moved quickly and did not make Chen, Huang and the military district guard company wait too long.

After a while, the convoy officially set off and drove along the newly built two-way four-lane road towards the infantry expert's command post.

······
Compared with three months ago, the reconstruction work in Xinxiang has been completely completed. The heavy floating bridge that was originally built temporarily on the moat has also been replaced by the engineering troops with a proper bridge for pedestrians and vehicles.

In addition, the administrative management system has also been improved.

Officials at all levels of the puppet government during the Japanese occupation period all received due punishment after public trials.

Looking at the street scene that was beginning to take shape outside the window, Huang He nudged his junior with his elbow and said with a slightly proud tone:

"How is it? Is New York developing very fast? Do you feel better after this trip? It's just a small failure of an experiment. There's no need to take it too seriously."

"By the way, I'll take you to eat a bowl of stewed noodles later. I don't know if you can eat it."

Although he knew that his senior was doing this for his own good and didn't want the tedious experiment to affect his health, the Fifth Master still couldn't help but complain:
"But, you have two junior students, why did you only pull me out?"

Hearing this, Huang He took out a train ticket from his pocket. On the ticket was written a line of words: March toward science and build four provinces with mountains and rivers.

"You know, the 10th Division's horoscope is incompatible with all airplanes. But recently all trains in the border area have been scheduled, and there are no seats available."

"Ah!? You have to believe in science!" (End of this chapter)
