Chapter 740 Infantry Fighting Vehicle
Gao Jiu felt something was wrong, so he sent a telegram to President Fujiwara again, asking him to figure it out.
What exactly happened?
President Fujiwara received a telegram and could feel Gao Jiu's anxiety and dissatisfaction with him from between the lines.
He hurriedly replied to the telegram, saying that he would return to Japan immediately and make a special investigation into the matter.
When President Fujiwara arrived in Japan, he immediately went to see Fujiwara Juno's father, who is now the Minister of the Japanese Army, and asked about the relevant situation about Gangcun.
The commander of the 11th Army of the Japanese army highly praised his old general Gang Village. He believed that Gang Village had suffered a ruthless injustice. He secretly returned to Tokyo, Japan and entrusted a deputy chief of the Army Department who supported Gang Village at that time to submit a copy of relevant materials for seeking grievances for Gang Village jointly signed by the generals of the 11th Army. He submitted it to Japan Tianhuang through a relative of Japan Tianhuang.
These materials contain many personal views of the 11th Army generals on Gangcun. They all believe that Gangcun is loyal to Tian Huang Bixia and the Great Japanese Huang Army, and affirmed his command ability.
In the materials written by the commander of the 11th Army of the Japanese Army, the Second Army Guards in the Southern Front went deep into the enemy war zone and destroyed the entire army. It was said that this unit was cultivated by Gang Village, and the captain was his nephew, and the officers and soldiers were his close friends and fellow villagers. After the case was investigated in Gang Village, they went deep into the enemy's backbone to assassinate Gao Jiu in order to prove the innocence of Gang Village, and the entire army was destroyed. This is enough to prove that Gang Village cannot collude with Gao Jiu.
Tian Huang was a little moved by this incident, and he also believed that Gangcun might have been wronged.
Because the main accusation against Gang Village was that he colluded with Gao Jiu, the major defeat caused by the Southern Front Army. Therefore, Tian Huang had questions about Gang Village being reviewed.
He issued a ruling order to re-invest the incident in Gangcun by the Japanese base camp.
The base camp decided to hold a hearing and specially recalled Toyota Hidena, the acting commander of the Southern Front Army, to attend the hearing.
At the hearing, although Toyota Hidea wanted to be the commander of the Southern Front, he was a little afraid of Gao Jiu and believed that his talents were not enough to compete with Gao Jiu, a bandit. In addition, he still admired Gang Village very much, so he said good things for Gang Village.
Since Toyota Hidena and the commander of the 11th Army, Sugang Village, were directly colleagues, their testimony was very convincing. Those who supported the Gang Village asked the base camp to revoke the review of Gang Village.
The party who wanted to defeat Gang Village and the party who supported Gang Village had a fierce debate. The result of the debate was that the final conclusion was not issued to Gang Village for the time being, and the investigation of the matter continued, which left a certain opportunity for Gang Village to turn things around.
Regarding the Southern Front, the acting commander of Toyota Hidena, waiting for the final conclusion of the Gangcun incident, either Gangcun will come back to take over, or give Toyota Hidena the order to become a regular person.
After President Fujiwara received the news, he immediately sent a telegram to Gao Jiu.
Gao Jiu couldn't help but feel a little worried when he saw this situation, but so far, he couldn't use any effort and could only wait for the results of the Japanese base camp's review of Gang Village.
Since the Gangcun incident cannot be achieved for the time being, it is meaningless for Gao Jiu to stay in Hubei. He decided to return to the Golden Triangle and wait until the situation changes in the future, and decide whether to return to Hubei based on the situation.
Gao Jiu resigned to Deputy Commander Zhang and others. Deputy Commander Zhang asked to leave some members of the Taohuashan guerrillas, and Gao Jiu also agreed.
He appointed Li Chengwu to lead two squadrons of the Taohuashan Guerrillas to continue to stay in Hubei, and he led the rest back to the Golden Triangle.
Gao Jiu came to Chongqing first.
Gao Jiu's career centered on the Golden Triangle. The main support of the Golden Triangle economy is industry. Ouyang Xue has always served as the Minister of Industry, so Gao Jiu asked Ouyang Xue to go to the Golden Triangle to preside over the work of the Ministry of Industry.
Unexpectedly, Ouyang Xue politely declined Gao Jiu's request.
Since Ouyang Xue met Gao Jiu, she has always been wholeheartedly supporting Gao Jiu. This is the first time she has violated Gao Jiu's wishes.
Gao Jiu was a little surprised at one moment, but then he understood what she was thinking.
Although Ouyang Xue is a knowledgeable woman who knows the general knowledge, she is also a mother of a child. Since the child's heart has had problems, she has always worried that the child's condition will be repeated. She believes that the medical conditions in Chongqing are better, so she is unwilling to follow Gao Jiu to the Golden Triangle.
Gao Jiu respects and loves Ouyang Xue very much, and he also understands this.
He said, "Ruoxue, you are a good mother, I understand your mood. In fact, the medical conditions in Golden Triangle are not worse than those in Chongqing, and even more than here. There should be no problem when you take your children to Golden Triangle.
The Golden Triangle industry is developing rapidly, but there are certain loopholes in management. You need to take charge of the overall situation. I really hope you can take office.”
Ouyang Xue hesitated and said, "I know what you said, but there are still differences in the climate here in Chongqing and the Golden Triangle. I am worried that my child will be unacceptable to the local environment after he goes there. Let me consider this matter again, okay?"
Gao Jiu held her hand and said lovingly: "It's okay, no matter what choice you make, you won't blame you."
Faced with Gao Jiu's tolerance and understanding, Ouyang Xue was very moved. She called intimately: "Brother Jiu." Then she leaned her head gently on his shoulder. She felt that Gao Jiu's shoulder was like a mountain, solid and reliable. She felt extremely satisfied that she could marry such a man.
Two days later, Gao Jiu saw that Ouyang Xue still couldn't make up his mind, so he said goodbye to her and came to Shajiaba Airport in Chongqing.
Gao Jiu and others got on the plane. When the plane was scheduled to take off, the plane did not start for a long time. Gao Jiu couldn't help but wonder. He asked Jia Liu to ask the pilot. The pilot said that he had just received an order from his superior to not take off for the time being, and said that there was an important guest who wanted to take the plane.
About 20 minutes later, a car drove into the airport and came directly to the transport plane.
Ouyang Xue and his son got out of the car and boarded the transport plane.
Gao Jiu was also surprised when he saw Ouyang Xue. Then he smiled and hugged the mother and son, and helped them sit next to him.
Gao Jiu smiled and said, "Ruoxue, welcome you and our son to go to the Golden Triangle together."
Ouyang Xueyanran smiled and said, "I am your woman, Brother Jiu, the baby is our child, of course, we will go wherever you are."
Gao Jiu and others returned to the Golden Triangle, and the first thing they did was to hold funerals for the sacrificed Zheng Sanpao and the guerrillas.
The funeral was very grand, and all the guerrillas in the Golden Triangle and representatives from various enterprises and institutions were sent to attend. Zhang Quan, Feng Xiucai and others also rushed over from Taohua Mountain.
Gao Jiu delivered a eulogy at the memorial service, and the original text of the eulogy was also published in the Golden Triangle Daily.
After the funeral, Zhang Quan and Feng Xiucai were about to return to Taohua Mountain. Gao Jiu wanted to keep them. In order to deepen their impression of the Golden Triangle, he specially asked Lin Yanni to accompany them around the Golden Triangle and specially took them to visit the already decorated villa left for them.
Zhang Quan and Feng Xiucai were very pleased with the development of the Golden Triangle, but they were used to staying in Taohua Mountain and had a deep affection for it. After thinking about it for a while, they were still willing to go back first, saying that they would come back when the Anti-Japanese War was victorious.
Gao Jiu didn't force himself, and kept them for a few more days, and then sent a plane to take them back.
On this day, Liao Tong and Liu Zhanying from the Yuanzheng Army came to visit Gao Jiu and said that they had completed the task of eliminating local armed forces in the Golden Triangle and asked Gao Jiu to send people to take over.
Gao Jiu expressed his gratitude to them and hosted a banquet to entertain them.
After the banquet, Gao Jiu took them to the arsenal to visit the newly produced infantry fighting vehicles in the arsenal.
The reason why Gao Jiu did not develop a tank was because he knew that there were many rivers and mountains in Southeast Asia, and the climate was hot and humid, so it was not suitable for tank use.
This infantry fighting vehicle has 5 650mm dual-load wheels on each side, a weight-bearing wheel travel 230mm, and 3 cylinder shock absorbers on each side, including an external diesel tank, a projectile smoke bomb launcher, a car radio station, and an armor thickness of 28mm. The main weapon is a 37mm high-level dual-purpose machine gun. Infantry fighting vehicles are divided into track and wheel type, with the advantages of strong maneuverability, strong firepower, and high comfort.
These two infantry fighting vehicles were developed by Gao Jiu's imitation of our army's Type 63 infantry fighting vehicles. In this era, they can be regarded as the most advanced infantry fighting vehicles.
Liao Tong and others were very interested and went to the car to try it out.
Liao Tong himself is very familiar with armored vehicles. He not only drove it himself but also tested the weapon system above, and praised it.
Gao Jiu saw that they liked it, but the Golden Triangle was not available for the time being, so he simply gave ten infantry fighting vehicles to the Yuanzheng Army and asked them to take the Japanese devils for testing first.
In order to test the actual combat effectiveness of infantry fighting vehicles, the arsenal sent people to follow the Yuanzheng army to operate together.
After Liao Tong and others returned, they were so itchy that they had advanced infantry fighting vehicles that they organized an infantry battalion and, under the cover of armored fighting vehicles, attacked a Japanese stronghold.
After the battle started, ten infantry fighting vehicles opened the way in front. The soldiers of the Yuanzheng Army followed behind and charged forward. The chariots used their armor to block the incoming bullets. The infantry covered the flanks of the armored vehicles and followed them forward.
Infantry fighting vehicles showed good maneuverability and complex terrain could basically adapt.
The Japanese army saw the infantry fighting vehicles rushing over and hurriedly used mortars and heavy machine guns to strike.
Infantry fighting vehicles do not play any role in high-speed movement. Machine gun bullets do not play any role in the infantry fighting vehicles.
The Japanese army was helpless and could only wait for the infantry fighting vehicles to rush over and send someone to blow it up with grenades.
The soldiers of the Yuanzheng Army sitting in the infantry fighting chariot heard the sound of bullets hitting on their armor at the beginning, and were still a little scared. When they saw that the bullets could not be penetrated and everyone was unharmed, their morale was greatly boosted.
They attacked the enemy outward through the shooting ports on the infantry fighting vehicles, and knocked down the Japanese soldiers who rushed up to try to blow up the infantry fighting vehicles one by one.
When the infantry fighting chariots ran over the trenches, the soldiers opened the door and jumped out from inside and attacked the Japanese army. The squadron of infantry following them also crossed the trenches and chased and annihilated the remaining enemies.
The battle went very smoothly. It took less than half an hour from the start of the attack to the end of the battle.
The soldiers of the Yuanzheng Army annihilated a squadron of the Japanese army at the cost of 12 casualties.
After actual combat inspection, the outstanding performance of this infantry fighting vehicle has been proved.
Liao Tong and others asked Gao Jiu, hoping to equip them more.
Gao Jiu had a high cost to produce these infantry fighting vehicles, and he also had to use these weapons to make money. Therefore, he could no longer give it to the Yuanzheng Army for free, so he asked them to apply for funds from Shangfeng to purchase these two models of infantry fighting vehicles.
The Guofu Military Command and Equipment Department were very interested in these two infantry fighting vehicles. They sent Gao Jiu a telegram saying that they would send someone to the factory for testing.
That morning, a transport plane landed at the airport in Mawan City, and Gao Jiu went to the airport to greet him in person.
When he saw the person coming off the transport plane, he couldn't help but be very surprised.
Gao Jiu went forward and said, "Dad, mom, why are you here?"
The visitors were Lin Wenhan and Huang Peishan. Li Wenhan was in charge of the military command, equipment department and military industry department. He had long heard that Gao Jiu was very advanced in the Golden Triangle Arsenal, so he took this opportunity to visit.
Huang Peishan missed her daughter and took this opportunity to visit her.
Gao Jiu called Lin Yanni at the airport. When Lin Yanni heard this, she was extremely happy and immediately drove to the airport.
On the way, Lin Yanni met a convoy with everyone, Lin Wenhan and others. After a few greetings, she entered the city.
Gao Jiu asked the military command, equipment department and military industry department to go to the hotel in the Golden Triangle to rest first. He and Lin Yanni accompanied Lin Wenhan and his wife to move into Lin Yanni's villa.
When they arrived at the gate of the villa, Lin Wenhan and his wife saw Lin Yanni's villa was generous, beautiful, and grand, with beautiful scenery around them. They felt that it was more comfortable than their villa in Chongqing.
After walking into the villa, Huang Peishan saw that the interior was very exquisite, both in decoration and furniture. She said happily: "Yanni, we were worried that you would not adapt here, but we didn't expect the conditions here to be so good."
Lin Yanni took her arm and said coquettishly: "Mom, Brother Jiu is the best to me. No matter what I want, he will be satisfied. Don't worry."
Huang Peishan said happily: "Don't worry, if you don't worry, how could your father and I beg for you to Gao Jiu?"
The next day, Gao Jiu and Lin Yanni accompanied Lin Wenhan and his wife, as well as the heads of the Military Order, Equipment Department and Military Industry Department, first visited the arsenal.
The Golden Triangle Arsenal is very large in scale. There are 34 large-scale assembly workshops that produce various weapons alone, nearly 100 other departments such as scientific research. There are as many as 27,200 or above engineering and technical personnel working in it, and more than 27,200 or above technical workers and managers in the factory, with a total of 9,000 people and a thousand people. These do not include other supporting manufacturers such as engine production.
The Golden Triangle Arsenal is not only large in scale, but also has very advanced equipment. The factory management is completely modern.
Lin Wenhan and others were amazed and envious.
An Kaidi, head of the Military Industry Department, said: "If our arsenal is half the level here, our weapons and ammunition will be solved."
Lin Wenhan smiled bitterly, not to mention that they do not have such advanced technology and so many engineering and technical personnel, Guofu’s current financial resources are the advanced machinery and equipment in the factory, and they cannot afford it.
