Development of productivity started in 1981

Chapter 125: Surface-to-Surface Missiles and Regional Air Defense Missile Manufacturing

In the early morning of July 1982, 7, Wang Jiankun woke up to the sound of the alarm clock.

I opened the heavy curtains and let a little morning light shine in through the window.

The time here is more than an hour later than that in his hometown Wuyuan, so although Wang Jiankun set the alarm for 6 o'clock, judging from the sky, it should be less than 5 o'clock.

There is a washing area in the room of this residence. Wang Jiankun was too tired last night, so he used his superpowers to purify his body and went to sleep without using the bathroom.

But he usually likes the living habits of ordinary people, so he goes to the bathroom to clean his mouth, wash his face and hands.

There was a wall clock in the room. Wang Jiankun checked the time and readjusted his watch to prevent any misunderstanding due to time difference.

My uncle also got up early. When he saw Wang Jiankun coming downstairs, he invited him to have dinner together, and then took him to the dock in the car.

It was the same speedboat that picked him up yesterday, and the driver was the same one from yesterday.

My uncle took Wang Jiankun and one of his adjutants onto the speedboat, and then asked the driver to start the journey immediately.

Near Myitkyina, the river is relatively wide. Wang Jiankun observed that it was about 130 meters wide. The water depth was about 50 meters about 7 meters near the center of the river.

However, after traveling about 30 kilometers upstream, the river narrows rapidly as it begins to enter the mountainous area.

Finally, the relatively stable width of the river channel was about 50 meters, and the water depth at the center of the river channel, about 20 meters, was still more than 6 meters. Moreover, as the river channel narrowed, the water flow rate was much faster.

"Uncle, how long is the river upstream that is 5 meters deep and about 20 meters wide?"

"Well, it's about 180 kilometers long, all the way to the small town of Weradan. If you go upstream for more than 100 kilometers, the water depth in the center of the river will gradually become shallower at about 20 meters, and it will generally be more than 3 meters deep. Further upstream, there are some rapids, and the water depth is not fixed."

"In that case, I'll get you a few transport ships, one of about 200 tons, which can be used as long as the water depth is 5 meters, and one of about 120 tons, which can also pass in water depths of more than 3 meters. This way your transportation capacity will be greatly enhanced."

"So do you want me to prepare something first?"

"Well, you can find a secluded river bay near Myitkyina, and then prepare about 20 tons of copper, 2 tons of manganese, 5 tons of zinc, and about 1 ton each of chromium, molybdenum, and nickel. The purity does not need to be particularly high."

"Is that all? The ship is still made of iron, right?"

"There are some underground. Just prepare what I told you to do. When I get there, clear all personnel from the area, including your own people!"

"Well, I'll arrange for someone to prepare the materials right away. When you asked me to prepare those metal ingots before, please prepare more. I'll have them find a good place to transport them over."

As Cen Yong spoke, he used his text message machine to send messages to the relevant personnel.

Seeing this, Wang Jiankun closed his eyes and rested, while the information about the river channel was constantly projected into his mind.

As he continues to use his superpowers, his mental strength has also been exercised. Currently, he can project elements within a range of 150 meters, and the amount of elements he can mobilize in a single day has reached 260 cubic meters.

The shape of the river in his mind gradually took shape as the boat started moving. At the same time, Wang Jiankun also learned the types of elements on both sides of the river and below.

Wang Jiankun discovered that the content of metal elements here is still very high, such as copper, iron, cobalt, manganese, tungsten and nickel.

According to general geological data analysis, there should be many mines worth exploiting in this area. It’s just that the transportation conditions here were too poor before. Even if a mine was discovered, there was no capacity to mine it. Moreover, the mined materials had to be transported to Mandalay, far downstream, where there is a smelter. Therefore, the mineral resources here have not been well developed.

Only when the Ming army established connections with some forces in the south, found a market for the minerals, and then forced the people in the mountainous areas to mine, did they begin to utilize the wealth hidden in the mountains.

Before, Wang Jiankun was worried that the resources here were insufficient and that the vigorous development of industry would be restricted by resources. However, after half a day of investigation, he found that the resources here were still very abundant, but mining required more energy.

However, since we want to support my uncle's great development here, and also regard this place as a place for Wang Jiankun to experiment with his dreams, many things can be used.

At about 9 o'clock, the speedboat arrived at the small town of Nanjir. The four people got off the boat at the small pier here, and then got on motorcycles to the old base in Langdao.

These motorcycles were purchased by my uncle in Yangon, the port city of Myanmar. They are Japanese brands. After using them, he found them very convenient, so he told Wang Jiankun that he wanted him to support a batch of motorcycles.

But it will be soon. The first batch of engines provided by Wang Jiankun has been transported to Jialing Factory. In a few days, the improved version of the motorcycle assembled by Jialing Factory will be ready for shipment.

The motorcyclist was obviously very familiar with the mountain road. He drove fast where he should and slowed down where he should. Although the mountain road was dangerous, the driver was very steady.

After driving on motorcycle for more than two hours, everyone arrived at the old base at around 2:11.

Wang Jiankun was observing along the way and found that the construction here was relatively standardized. The main road could accommodate two trucks, and the small road also allowed one truck to pass. The houses on the roadside were very regular and should have a unified design.

Seeing Wang Jiankun looking at it, the uncle introduced: "Jiankun, the road here was repaired at the beginning of this year. Before, it was a gravel road with many potholes. Then after the cement plant started production, we started to repair the road."

"Then the houses on both sides were planned in a unified way. The previous thatched houses and stone houses were demolished and rebuilt, and then bricks and prefabricated panels were used to build two-story houses, so that more people can live in them."

"Well, it's good to build it this way. If we want to develop, we need good roads. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to deal with transportation problems. Have you started to build roads in other newly conquered places?"

"Well, many of the people we absorb will first be arranged to build roads and houses, and then they will be redistributed according to their labor conditions and their personal skills. Some will be selected to join the army, some will enter factories, and some will be arranged to farm and engage in infrastructure construction, etc."

The two talked as they walked, and soon they arrived at a heavily guarded area. This was where the Southern Liberation Front held its high-level meetings.

After entering, his uncle Cen Yong introduced him to the other four leaders of the Southern Liberation Front, namely the Chinese Li Sheng, Peng Sheng, the Mon U Nu, and the Kachin Ne Win.

“Welcome our chief scientist, Jiankun Wang.”

After the introduction, the first leader Li Sheng expressed his welcome to Wang Jiankun and everyone applauded.

The next step is to hold a ceremony for Wang Jiankun to formally join the organization

(160 words omitted this time)
After swearing an oath to the flag of the Southern Liberation Front, Wang Jiankun officially became a member of the Southern Liberation Front. His joining ceremony was very special. The introducer was his uncle Cen Yong, who is currently the third-ranking leader.

Two other leaders accompanied him in taking the oath, while the first leader Li Sheng and the second leader U Nu watched his joining ceremony together.

After the ceremony, the five leaders accompanied Wang Jiankun for a simple lunch.

The dishes are very simple, just a chicken, a fish, some seasonal vegetables and a pot of soup.

It was obvious that the leaders of the Southern Liberation Front did not eat meat often. Wang Jiankun only ate a little of the chicken and the chicken was shared among them.

“Jiankun, don’t be surprised. Although we are developing very well now, food is still in short supply. So all of us, including several of us, have a fixed amount of food every day. We only have a little meat every other day. This time since you are here, we made an exception and cooked a whole chicken. So the way you eat is very rude.” The first leader saw that Wang Jiankun was a little restrained when eating, and explained.

"It was very difficult for me to eat meat last year. When I saw meat, my mouth would water. It was only in the past six months that the food has improved a lot. The domestic sales of food have been gradually liberalized, allowing more bargained grain sales. Only then can I eat well. So you can eat as much as you can, don't waste it." After saying that, he picked up several chopsticks of vegetables and tried to leave the meat for them. At the dinner table, Wang Jiankun told them about the reform and opening up in China. For example, many places began to implement the household contract responsibility system, and most places began to allow individual businesses to operate and apply for business licenses. Some coastal areas are even ahead, and land can be bought and sold.

Although they are high-ranking members of the Southern Liberation Front and usually read some intelligence collected by the intelligence department, their understanding of the domestic situation is limited to official reports and they have not sent anyone to conduct in-depth investigations in the interior. Moreover, their main focus is currently on the development of their own organization and on fighting against the government forces there and the Chen family army in the east.

So he listened very carefully to what Wang Jiankun said, and asked from time to time about some of the content that Wang Jiankun had skipped.

We ate the meal quickly at first, but continued to chat while eating for more than an hour at the end.

Through the conversation, Wang Jiankun alleviated his initial discomfort and gained some understanding of several senior leaders.

Currently, he is the chief scientist of the Southern Liberation Front and is responsible for all scientific research and cutting-edge technology development of the organization.

The Southern Liberation Front has a scientific research institute, with Wang Jiankun as its director.

However, the current Academy of Sciences is just a framework, and there are only a few people in the organization who can serve as scientists.

However, everyone is very confident that they can develop. Li Sheng and others are confident in their organizational capabilities, and Wang Jiankun is confident in his superpowers.

After dinner, Wang Jiankun asked his uncle to take him to the air force base, where two types of advanced equipment would be waiting for Wang Jiankun to build.

In June, Wang Jiankun began to ask his uncle to make preliminary preparations. On the one hand, it was to prepare raw materials, and on the other hand, it was to provide cover for Wang Jiankun.

Following Wang Jiankun's instructions, Cen Yong transported many large wooden boxes that were tightly wrapped to the air force base. He informed the top leaders of the organization that these were some spare parts that Wang Jiankun had provided, and that they would be used to produce and assemble some weapons and equipment in the future.

This is how the previous missiles and rockets came about. Wang Jiankun sent the parts, and some technicians within the organization assembled and tested them according to the installation manual.

Now, according to a similar process, some large parts are being transported in to assemble more powerful weapons, and the top leaders can understand it.

As for other people, my uncle Cen Yong did not inform them at all. For some people who inquired about the news, some of them were found to have no problems after investigation and were transferred from their original positions to work in some remote places. For those who were found to have problems during the investigation, what awaited them was the iron fist of the organization.

The air force base is located in a mountain lake. As for why it is located here, it has been explained in the previous article. Because the planes provided by Wang Jiankun to the Southern Liberation Army were all seaplanes, they could only choose a place with flat water surface.

After arriving at the place, Wang Jiankun first asked his uncle to take him to see the plane, and then communicated with the people who were undergoing training to understand their driving experience. At the same time, he also quietly repaired some wear and tear on the inside of the aircraft to extend the trouble-free life of these aircraft.

After checking the condition of the plane, Wang Jiankun followed his uncle to a separate factory building.

The entire house is poured with cement all around and then covered with iron sheets and waterproof cloth on the top. It is 10 meters high, 30 meters long and 40 meters wide, and the distance between the pillars in the middle is about 5 meters.

Wang Jiankun went in to check and found that there were already a lot of boxes piled up inside, taking up about one-third of the area, as well as 8 frames, 16 pairs of tires and some other truck parts.

Of course, not even a car can be assembled with these parts. Wang Jiankun asked his uncle to prepare these in order to conceal his ability to manufacture things with superpowers. He just needed to make a few senior executives believe that he assembled the cars using the transported parts.

While checking the interior of the building, Wang Jiankun also used his superpowers to count the elements inside to see if there were enough to manufacture vehicle-mounted air defense missiles and medium-range ground-to-ground missiles.

After making sure that all the elements were fully prepared, Wang Jiankun asked his uncle to take the men away and stand guard 2 kilometers away, not allowing anyone to approach.

The uncle knew the seriousness of the situation, so he took his guards to patrol around the building, and then asked people to stand guard outside the area designated by Wang Jiankun, while he accompanied Wang Jiankun inside the building.

After my uncle's guards reported via text message that the area had been cleared and they had arrived at their positions to begin guard patrol, Wang Jiankun began his action.

He first mobilized some elements to cover the windows, and then made 8 infrared detection devices, placing two on each side of the building to observe whether anyone entered within a 2-kilometer range.

Although my uncle Cen Yong had seen Wang Jiankun demonstrate his superpowers, it was only a small dagger that was formed very slowly last night.

But now, as Wang Jiankun walked towards that station, the surrounding windows began to be covered with a layer of opaque material, and then lines extended around the building. From a distance, it seemed that something was taking shape. Then a large screen appeared in front of Wang Jiankun, split into 8 windows, showing different infrared images.

Only at this moment did he realize that this nephew was simply inhuman. If he had not confirmed it again and again with his younger sister and older brother, he would not have dared to believe that the man in front of him was his nephew.

Then an even more shocking scene appeared. The stacked wooden boxes began to disintegrate, holes began to appear on several frames and wheels, and then wheels, axles, frames, and the superstructure of the vehicle appeared from bottom to top on the open space on one side.

At first the cars were all silver, then gradually camouflage green began to appear, and some external parts also began to appear and were covered with camouflage.

In just over half an hour, a total of 8 trucks of the same model appeared in the open space, but each truck carried different things.

There is one vehicle carrying four cylinders, one vehicle carrying four small cylinders, and two vehicles that seem to be carrying radars, but the sizes of the radar antennas of the two vehicles are different.

Two of the other four vehicles were probably used for loading and unloading because they had hydraulic walls on them.

The other two have long antennas sticking out, and they should be command vehicles.

After inspecting all the manufactured items, Wang Jiankun repacked the unused elements into boxes, then came over to explain to his uncle what the vehicles he had made were used for.

"Uncle, come back to your senses. I'll tell you what these are for."

"Ah? Oh, you tell me." Although Cen Yong had also experienced gunfire and hail of bullets and was able to grasp many situations, the scene just now still shocked him deeply, so he was unable to recover for a while.

"I have manufactured two types of missiles this time. One is a surface-to-surface missile with a range of 300 kilometers. It is in the vehicle carrying the two large cylinders. The other is a regional air defense missile that can attack aircraft flying at an altitude of less than 3 meters and within 20 kilometers of the missile position. It is installed on the vehicle carrying the four cylinders."

"A surface-to-surface missile with a range of 300 kilometers? An anti-aircraft missile that can deal with aircraft at an altitude of 3 meters? It's so advanced, can we use it?" Cen Yong said in disbelief.

As far as he knows, only a few major countries have this type of weapons, and it is difficult for other countries to buy them even if they want to. If they are equipped with them, wouldn't they be able to dominate South Asia?
"You will need them. If you want to develop rapidly in the future, you will definitely face more explosive attacks. These are the things you need to protect the results of your development."

"Yes, that's right. If we can follow the development path you planned, it is indeed likely to attract a more severe attack. But can we use these equipment? You know the situation of the talents we have prepared."

"Yes, you can use them. As long as you have a junior high school education and are sensitive to mathematics, you can operate these two devices. I sent you some information and asked some people to conduct training. Gather them in the evening and I will explain it to them. Then we will start testing tomorrow morning."

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away. I didn't know what you were going to do before, and your information was vague."

"It's okay. As long as they have studied it carefully, I will explain the whole set of operations to them, and they will understand how to apply the knowledge in the materials."

"Okay, then we'll have training tonight and testing tomorrow morning. I have to go and coordinate that."

"Go ahead. I'll make some more targets and spare ammunition. After the tests are done and they're slightly adjusted, they can be officially put into service. If you want more, go collect some more elements and bring them here. I'll make them next time I come."

"Okay, I have to prepare more. It's better to prepare more of these equipment. At present, you are the only one who can make them. It will be inconvenient to replenish them after they are used up."

That evening, Wang Jiankun gave training to more than 60 people in this building, using the projection equipment he had manufactured to play the animation demonstration produced by Zhizi.
