Chapter 520: The Arsenal is Completed(1/2)
Time soon came to early June 1942.
The Japanese Navy Combined Fleet is intensively brewing an attack on Midway Atoll. Although the beautiful Navy Pacific Fleet is generally at a clear disadvantage, it does not passively avoid war, but defends each extreme, preparing to give the Japanese Navy Combined Fleet a head-on attack in the Midway Sea.
No one realized that the turning point of the Pacific battlefield was coming.
The only one who predicted the outcome of this naval battle is probably Wang Ye.
However, at this time, Wang Ye didn't care about the Pacific battlefield at all.
At this time, Wang Ye had devoted himself to the construction of the arsenal, power plant and steel plant. Every now and then, he had to go to Yelangyu, kill Zhukou, Yezhugou and Xiji Fortress to work.
In Wang Jiazhi's words, Wang Ye lost weight all over, and he felt so distressed.
Of course, that's it, even if Wang Ye has free time, he will not interfere in the Midway Battle.
It is all stupid to let the beautiful country lose the Midway Naval Battle, which makes the Pacific War last longer, in order to drain the war potential of the beautiful country.
If he really did this, China would no longer be able to withstand the potential of a beautiful country before he could squeeze out the potential of a beautiful country.
In any case, the beautiful countries at this time were the largest industrial powers, and their war potential was unique in the world. At this time, China was a pure agricultural country, and the war potential was supported by the population. In other words, every day the war lasted, it meant that thousands of compatriots died.
Therefore, Wang Ye would never do such nonsense and stupid things.
The only thing Wang Ye thinks about now is to build an arsenal one day earlier.
As long as the Northwest Shanxi Arsenal was built, their Northwest Shanxi Column would no longer be afraid of the Japanese attacks. Moreover, the more time they accumulated, the stronger their wealth would be, and the larger the scale of the Japanese heavy army group that could withstand. When their Northwest Shanxi Column could withstand the attacks of the ten Japanese divisions, they could turn to a strategic counterattack.
By then, the entire North China would be liberated in advance and there would be no trouble for the Democratic Party.
However, before the arsenal was built, all this was just a dream.
But then again, people must have a dream when they live. If people don’t have dreams, what is the difference between them and salted fish?
"Hey, Xiao Wang, what are you thinking?" Wang Ye was imagining the grand occasion of a large-scale counterattack after the completion of the arsenal, Li Mengshu's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
After this period of time, the two have become very close.
"Uncle, I'm thinking about how many bullets and shells can be produced every day after the arsenal is completed." Wang Ye said with a smile, "Then how should these bullets and shells be divided?"
Li Mengshu sneered and said, "The construction of the arsenal has just begun, but it has not yet appeared."
"You just think about how to separate bullets and shells in the future? What's the difference between your virtue and those fools who start quarreling before they shoot the geese down?"
He paused and said, "If you have this time to daydream here, why not help me debug the machine."
"Okay, you can debug the machine?" Wang Ye was overjoyed when he heard this. He could debug the machine, which means that the arsenal will soon enter the trial production stage.
Wang Ye really didn't expect that Li Mengshu's movements would be so fast.
Li Mengshu said with a rant: "In fact, the construction of an arsenal is not as difficult as imagined. It is nothing more than finding a suitable site, installing the machine, then laying circuits and pipelines, and waiting for the power supply to solve it, you can enter the trial production stage, but it is only limited to trial production, and it is still far from real production."
"I know this." Wang Ye hurriedly said, "real production also requires the supply of raw materials."
"It's not just a problem of raw materials," said Li Mengshu. "The power supply is now supported by generators. Before the power plant is built, the production capacity of the arsenal cannot be increased."
Wang Ye said: "Then let Zheng Gong and the others try to be as fast as possible."
Li Mengshu said: "Ensan and the others are also working overtime, and it should be enough if nothing unexpected happens at the end of the month."
"That's great." Wang Ye said excitedly when he heard this, "In this way, the formal production can start at the end of the month. This speed is a bit amazing."
"Small scenes, just small scenes." Li Mengshu smiled and said, "When the Taiyuan Arsenal was founded, the speed of rushing to work was really fast. Moreover, we were on the production line for producing 75 mountain cannons and heavy machine guns. What are your mere three bullet production lines? We will tinker with you in minutes."
While speaking, the two of them had already walked into the deep cave.
Yes, the arsenal is hidden in a deep cave.
There were more than 7,000 Japanese prisoners of war, and Wang Ye had no reason not to dig holes
Wang Ye asked these Japanese prisoners to hollow out almost several nearby hills.
After completion, the arsenal, power plant and steel plant will be hidden in the mountain, and the chimneys of the steel plant and power plant will directly reach the top of the mountain, and the entire flue is made of fired brick rings.
...
At the same time, in the Hebei Central Military Region.
The Japanese Deputy Chief of Staff of North China Front Army Atsushi Mitsu walked into the tent excitedly and reported to Okamura Yasuji: "Great General, the last established unit of the Eighth Route Army's Hebei bandit area has been annihilated!"
"As of today, there is no longer a single Eighth Route Army armed force in the entire Hebei bandit area."
"Ninety percent of the Eighth Route Army's armed forces have been annihilated by the Imperial Army, and less than 20 percent of the Eighth Route Army have also fled into the neighboring Jin-Cha-Ji bandit zone."
Speaking of this, Yi Mo Jing San said again: "This big sweep has won a great victory!"
"Okay, very good!" Okamura Yasuji nodded happily, and then asked again, "Is there the latest news in the northwest of Shanxi?"
"It's still not." When talking about northwest Shanxi, Youshi Jingsan's face immediately became gloomy and said, "The Special High School has never been able to contact their lurking personnel. I suspect that something might have happened to their lurking personnel."
"There is Mokun, there is no need to doubt it." Okamura Yasuji said in a deep voice, "I can't contact you for so long, something must have happened."
"In this case, due to the lack of intelligence support, it may be difficult for us to explore the construction progress of the Eighth Route Army's Northwest Shanxi Arsenal."
"Even without intelligence support, you can guess it almost exactly."
Okamura Yasuji said quietly: "If there are ready-made machinery, equipment, factories and electricity supply, it will take only three or five days to build a small-scale arsenal."
He paused and said, "Wu Jun, we don't have much time left."
"So, what are your plans?" You Mo Jing San said in a deep voice.
Okamura Yasuji said in a deep voice: "You immediately form text materials for this sweeping operation against the Eighth Route Army Hebei bandit area. The more detailed the data in all aspects, the better, and the speed must be faster."
"Hayi!" The three sub-sophagus paused their heads.
...
Chongqing, Huangshan official residence.
Dai Li drove to Yunxiu Tower again.
However, when I came to Yunxiu Tower before, Dai Li seemed confident, but this time he seemed a little nervous and looked like he was walking on thin ice.
When I went upstairs, I even asked Wang Shihe.
"Brother Shihe." Dai Li asked in a low voice, "How is the principal feeling today?"
"Not very good." Wang Shihe was quite polite to Dai Li, the spy leader, and whispered, "Be careful later."
"Thank you." Dai Li gave Wang Shihe a grateful glance, then arched and pushed open the door and walked into the study, and said to Chang Kaishen, who was lying on the rocking chair, closing his eyes to rest, "Principal, I'm here."
"Yunnong, you are here." Chang Kaishen opened his eyes and was about to get up from the rocking chair.
Dai Li quickly took the step forward and reached out to help Chang Kaishen up from the rocking chair.
Chang Kaishen waved his hand and asked, "Yunnong, is there still no news in the northwest of Shanxi?"
"Yes, or there is no news." A row of fine beads of sweat immediately emerged from Dai Li's forehead and said carefully, "The inside line lurking among the arsenal technicians has never conveyed the news. The several groups of liaison officers sent by Taiyuan Station to contact him were all mysteriously missing, so the students thought..."
"What do you think?" Chang Kaishen said angrily, "Don't hesitate."
"Yes." Dai Li said hurriedly, "The students thought that something was wrong with the inside, and most of the liaison officers sent to contact him had been injured, so there was no news back."
Chang Kaishen said with a dark face: "There is no news from the Jinsui Army and the Japanese?"
Dai Li hurriedly said: "There must be no news from the Jinsui Army. The Japanese don't know it for the time being, but the students think there is a high probability that there will be no news."
"Mom Xipi!" Chang Kaishen said angrily, "So, the northwest of Shanxi has really become a tiger's den? Not only are the people of your Military Control Commission going but not back, but even the Japanese spies also go but not back. It's fine if Wang Ye and the others are fighting fiercely, but are they so powerful in the anti-spy? They actually compete with your Military Control Commission?"
Dai Li didn't dare to answer the words, and he couldn't answer them.
Because this is a question, no matter how you answer it, it is wrong.
Chang Kaishen was still angry and called Chen Bulei over again.
In fact, what made Chang Kaishen angry the most was not the Military Control Commission. The Central Administration failed to eliminate Wang Ye, Li Yunlong and others, nor was it the fact that they were unable to destroy the construction of the arsenal. But to this day, the Japanese army has not launched a large-scale attack on northwest Shanxi, which is very different from the development he had expected before.
So he was going to call Chen Bulei over and question him.
"Yanji." Chang Kaishen said with a dark face, "The Eighth Route Army in northwest Shanxi is building an arsenal in a intensive manner. Maybe all the arsenals have been built, so why did Okamura Yanji still not respond?"
After a pause, he said, "Didn't you say last time that as long as the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army occupied northwest Shanxi, it would become a thorn in Okamura's eyes? Then Okamura Nishi will mobilize heavy troops to sweep northwest Shanxi? Why, why did Okamura Nishi still have no response to this yet? How do you explain this?"
"Commission, it may be that the Japanese army is not ready yet." Chen Bulei said.
"After all, the Japanese army in North China has not yet ended its mobilization of the central Hebei region."
"Preparation? What preparations do the Japanese army need?" Chang Kaishen said, "When the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army had just fought a fierce battle with the 69th Division of the Japanese Army and the consumption of personnel and materials had not been replenished, the effect was not better? Wait a little longer, should we wait until the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army builds the arsenal and continuously produces ammunition?"
"This..." Chen Bray was speechless, and he was unexpected.
To be honest, Chen Bulei didn't expect that an arsenal would appear when he made this judgment.
Chen Bulei couldn't understand what was wrong with Yan Xishan's mind and would he do this?
...
In fact, Yan Xishan has already regretted it.
In this spy battle, the biggest loser is undoubtedly Yan Xishan.
Because of the Military Control Commission and the Central Commission for the Central Commission for the Japanese Special High School, only a few hidden personnel and liaison officers were lost, but Yan Xishan suffered not only the hidden personnel of the Special Police Department, but also more than 200 technical backbones.
These more than 200 technical backbones are the talent base of Shanxi's industry.
