Bright sword, I have a red police base car

Chapter 136 Dongfanghong Tractor
With the arrival of the brigade commander, the foundation of the five small industries has also been laid.

The steel mines and coal mines that the Eighth Route Army was supposed to be in charge of were also formally mined.

Zhang Shijie also began to notify the engineering construction team to build a road from the mining area to the Dagushan base for mining transportation.

Due to the transfer of the militia, the production and construction corps is no longer in Zhang Shijie's establishment, so this kind of action has also changed from an order to a notice.

It's just that there is no difference from before.

"The chief, not the head of the regiment. Should we build the railway in this situation?" Zhang Ning asked Zhang Shijie.

"In the current situation, we have no way to build a railway. Let's look at the power environment in the future."

Zhang Shijie is also very clear that for the transportation of the mining industry, railway transportation must be the most efficient.However, considering the current geographical situation in Shanxi, it is too difficult to build a railway.Moreover, the enemy, us, and recalcitrant forces in this area are intertwined, and no matter whether roads or railways are built, they may be harassed by the enemy.

The cost of railway construction is too high, and once the railway is destroyed, it will definitely cause great losses to the Eighth Route Army and the Red Police Force.The slightly higher cost of road transport is mainly due to the fuel used in car transport and the maintenance of cars, but in the event of a blow, the loss of road transport is much smaller than that of rail transport.

Moreover, roads can be built across mountains, while railways need to build bridges and tunnels to a certain extent. Once these key nodes are destroyed, the supply of raw materials for the production of the Red Police Force will be completely interrupted.

Therefore, Zhang Shijie can only decide whether to carry out railway construction based on the actual situation.

The railway will be built sooner or later, but not now.

"But leader, once we use the road, we don't have enough fuel and transportation vehicles!"

The problem mentioned by Zhang Ning is also the disadvantage of road transportation. The use of vehicles for transportation must require a lot of fuel and transportation vehicles.After having a technological oil well, building an oil refinery can solve the oil problem.

But the problem of transport vehicles is difficult to solve.

The unit price of trucks is high, and the transport capacity is relatively average. Although Zhang Shijie's troops use more than a thousand trucks plus inventory vehicles, the overall manufacturing cost will increase a lot if the life cost of the trucks is evenly spread on the transported minerals.So Zhang Shijie had to find a way on the road transport vehicles of the militia.

"The next step is to introduce chemical plants and refineries from 2018. Fuel is not a problem, but do you have any good ideas about transportation vehicles?"

"Head, I have an idea!" Liu Zhijun, the leader of the production and construction team that has not yet been split, said to Zhang Shijie: "Head, the transportation vehicles we want to use are just a few requirements, cheap, powerful, and have certain off-road capabilities. The best structure is simple and easy to maintain. We have such a car!"

Zhang Shijie was taken aback when he heard the words, and asked, "We have? Why don't I know?"

"Head, when I was first recruited, didn't I see a few Dongfanghong tractors with single-cylinder diesel engines in the base space?"

Zhang Shijie suddenly understood when he heard the words.

yes!When Zhang Shijie purchased this single-cylinder tractor at the beginning, it was because of its simple process, low cost, and no technical content. He wanted to imitate it in the future and liberate agricultural productivity.

At this time, it can be used directly for transportation!At the very least, the overloaded transport capacity of this thing can reach ten tons!
Moreover, the maintenance cost of this kind of tractor is much cheaper than that of conventional vehicles. The single-cylinder diesel engine can also lay the foundation for the later automobile industry in the base area and serve as a technical reserve.

Subsequently, Zhang Shijie directly put the introduction of Dongfanghong tractor production line and independent production plan on the agenda, at least to complete the mass production of tractors before the road was opened to traffic.

"Just count the materials and equipment we need to purchase when we go back to 2018. I will accompany the brigade commander to the opening ceremony of the radio training class, and take a look at the current situation of the independent group."

"Regimental Commander, in the next step, the radio communications of other units of the Eighth Route Army have been delegated to the regiment. Should the independent regiment's communication equipment be strengthened as well?"

Zhang Shijie nodded and said: "Then strengthen the radio of the independent regiment to the battalion!"

"Yes! Captain."

After a night's rest, Zhang Shijie took Brigadier Chen to visit the infrastructure construction of the radio training class, and the brigade commander nodded secretly after seeing it.

The three-story dormitory and teaching building made of concrete are very simple overall, and a camouflage net has already been laid on the top of the house.

Zhang Shijie said to the brigade commander: "Brother, the radio training class you see now is only the foundation of the radio radar academy we will build in the future. In the future, we will rely on the current training class to form the radio radar academy of our Eighth Route Army, and set up radio and radar. Two departments. The radio department includes radio communication, telecommunication detection, cipher, electromagnetic countermeasures, and radio equipment maintenance; the radar department includes air search and alert, fire control, radar maintenance, anti-jamming, and meteorology. Observational profession."

The composition design of the Radio Radar Institute has been discussed and determined by Zhang Shijie and others a long time ago.

Through this academy, Zhang Shijie can continue to provide professional and technical personnel training to the Eighth Route Army, and the scope of training is very extensive and advanced.

Majors such as electromagnetic countermeasures and fire control radar are unprecedented in any country in this era.

And professional training such as meteorological observation will greatly make up for the shortcomings of the Eighth Route Army in meteorological observation. In other words, there is almost no meteorological observation technology in the whole of China.

In the military, weather conditions are a very important consideration.Yin and Yang, heat and cold, and time are all crucial factors on the battlefield.Once the Eighth Route Army has mastered the weather environment and can change the weather environment to a certain extent, it will be a great help to the Eighth Route Army's operations.And it can also be of great help to the agriculture in the base area.

It was very difficult to change the weather within a certain range in 1938, but for Zhang Shijie's Red Police Force, it was just an antiaircraft gun.

Just imagine, when the little devils assembled their troops to carry out a big sweep against the base areas of the Eighth Route Army, Zhang Shijie got the news in advance and used anti-aircraft artillery to artificially rain.

As far as the road situation in Shanxi is concerned, the motorized transportation of the little devil can be abolished directly, and even the transportation capacity of mules and horses will be abolished by a heavy rain.
The current road situation is not like the asphalt roads everywhere after 80 years. Even the devil's roads are mostly dirt roads. Anyone who has lived in the countryside knows what the dirt roads are like on rainy days!

Of course, Zhang Shijie opened these majors, so he would naturally have these professional equipment.

As long as the first batch of professional and technical personnel are trained, the Eighth Route Army will be able to complete the construction of the radio communication network as quickly as possible with Zhang Shijie's equipment support, and have complete air search and alert capabilities and weather detection capabilities.

At that time is the best time to build the air force of the Eighth Route Army!
Brigadier Chen watched the entire campus of the training class and listened to Zhang Shijie's explanation of the future construction of the school, his heart was full of excitement.

"Brother, you won't just set up this school, will you?"

Zhang Shijie laughed, and said to Brigadier Chen: "What are you talking about, brother? How could this be the only one? The only military academies to be established in the future are the Eighth Route Army University of Science and Technology, Eighth Route Army Engineering University, Infantry Command Academy, Armored Corps Command Academy, Artillery Air Defense Academy, Engineer Academy of Chemical Defense, Special Operations Academy, Transportation Logistics Academy, and Flight Academy. These academies include almost all professional and technical arms and related logistics command majors! Now the biggest limitation of the development and construction of these schools is The number and level of education of the students has improved."

The brigade commander nodded when he heard the words. It seems that the most important plan for the entire Eighth Route Army this winter is to strengthen the cultural training of the troops. If the cultural level is not enough, it will be useless to learn in these schools.

"Why don't we find a way to cooperate with Brother Zhang and move the Southwest Associated University here?" Brigadier Chen couldn't help but have this idea in his mind.

But Brigadier Chen, who had just come up with this idea, felt more and more that this idea was absurd. Southwest Associated University was established by Tsinghua University, Peking University, and Nankai University who moved southward, and moved to Kunming in 1938.

In fact, the biggest resistance to moving Southwest Associated University here is nothing but bald heads.

National Southwest Associated University, this national university is bald!

So Brigadier Chen just thought about it.

"Brother, our plan has basically begun to be implemented, and the next step is to rely on you to export and purchase."

Zhang Shijie's three major economic pillar industries have already stepped up production at full capacity.

The cigarettes and penicillin sold are very expensive. Even the cheapest low-end cigarettes cost five yuan a piece. The main customer groups are the rich and powerful in China and people from abroad. For the ordinary people in China, Zhang Shijie is not Fuck!
Moreover, Zhang Shijie had already made it clear to Brigadier Chen about the goods for sale that the Eighth Route Army was only responsible for wholesale and only accepted precious metals such as gold and ocean.

As for the currency needed to purchase materials, of course it is the special products of various countries produced by the printing factory!
Brigadier Chen inspected the quality of the cigarettes and penicillin produced by Zhang Shijie.

The effect of penicillin came back when Zhang Shijie was supporting the brigade headquarters. The hospital had already tested the quality of the medicines produced by Zhang Shijie, so there was no need to say more about the repurchase.

As a veteran smoker, Brigadier Chen knew the quality of the cigarettes produced by the Red Police Force as soon as he tasted them.

"Don't worry, brother Zhang, the sales volume of such a good product is definitely not bad, just don't worry."
