Facts have proved that people’s aesthetic styles can transcend eras. The classic tractors that were popular in the 1990s are still the most dazzling in the 1930s.
Red Star Tractor No. 006 left Matou Pass. He Gang steadily controlled the tractor loaded with cargo with both hands, driving on the unpaved section of the Xinyanma Highway. The vehicle body was slightly bumpy, but it was within the tolerance range. The destination of this transportation mission It is Sanchawan, Yulin, which delivers the ore powder to the steel plant. The whole process takes about twenty hours.
It was tiring, but he enjoyed it.
As one of the few official tractor drivers in the base area, He Gang will attract the envious eyes of countless comrades and ordinary people wherever he goes now. He is extremely beautiful. I have to say that this feeling is really wonderful.
In addition to the scenery, the most important thing is that he pulled a full seven tons of raw materials.
Seven tons, this is a number that was completely unimaginable just a few days ago.
In the past, to pull seven tons of things, fourteen horse-drawn carriages and ten ox-carts were needed. Not only was it time-consuming and labor-intensive, but sometimes the ox-horses would get sick, which was extremely troublesome.
However, now a tractor can run as long as it is refueled. It runs 24 hours a day and cannot be stopped when people stop.
This is the difference between animal power and power machinery.
He Gang is well aware of the significance of the Red Star tractor, and he also understands the preciousness of the tractor under him. There are less than fifteen tractors with official serial numbers in the entire base area, and the output is very rare.
What he has to do is to ensure that the goods and tractors reach their destination safely, and there must be no mistakes on the way.
Even if a Red Star tractor is crashed, this is a pain that the current organization cannot bear.
Safety first, tractor first!
Within the base area, more than a dozen Red Star tractors are galloping on the highway, tirelessly transporting raw materials required for various factories and highway construction projects. A new and dynamic tractor transportation line was quietly born.
This transportation is small and dangerous, but it has an unlimited future.
Liushugou Industrial Zone, Arsenal Warehouse.
Two Red Star tractors are parked quietly here. Various weapons and ammunition are piled inside the cargo box passing the heightened railing. The fuselage numbers are 016 and 017. Next to it is a flatbed trolley for transporting ammunition boxes. A squad of soldiers are transporting them. Ammunition, loaded in an orderly manner.
There is no doubt that these are the two latest Red Star tractors that have rolled off the assembly line at the tractor factory next door, and have undergone certain legal modifications.
Of course, these days, there are no traffic police arrests for illegal modifications, and there are no over-limit stations set up by the transportation management to arrest overloading.
There was a gentle breeze and the sky was clear and blue.
In front of the warehouse door, the two people stood.
Chen Kang stared at the Liushugou Arsenal, which was busier than ever, with a pair of bright eyes. His eyes were full of nostalgia and reluctance. This was the final result of his hard work for several months.
Today's Liushugou Arsenal is far better than the Red Army's ordnance industry department at any time.
"How much is the daily steel output in Yulin now?" After a long time, Chen Kang finally came to his senses, took a deep breath, turned to look at Yu Hua beside him, and asked.
Two days have passed, and today it's time to say goodbye.
There were no flowers, no applause, and no grand farewell procession. There were only two trucks of arms, plus Yu Hua, a friend who came to see him off. As the first director of the Military Industry Bureau, Chen Kang did not ask for these external things, quietly and assuredly. He has relieved his burden and is ready to rush to another magnificent stage.
This is Chen Kang's fate.
Yu Hua smiled and replied: "Yesterday's data was eight tons. We don't know yet today."
"It increased three tons in two days, and the growth rate is visible to the naked eye. This is the effect of the Red Star tractor... It's a pity that we didn't realize the importance of rubber at the beginning." Chen Kang nodded with emotion, and slightly blamed himself in his words. It is a pity that if the importance of rubber had been realized early and a large amount of reserves had been made, Red Star Tractor would not have faced the dilemma of suspending production.
"A wise man will always make mistakes. No one can predict everything. If there is a problem, we will face it until it is solved." Yu Hua heard the words and shook his head gently. A pair of eyes like stars reflected the light, and slowly Expressing his attitude, his words were calm and powerful: "You don't have to blame yourself. This is the price we must bear to move forward and become stronger. As there is a saying in the West - if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight."
It is normal for problems to arise in the industrial development of base areas.
One is the scarcity of technical talents, and the other is that the understanding of modern science and technology and industrialization, as well as the relevant technical reserves, are completely blank. It would be abnormal if there are no problems if industrial development is carried out under such basic conditions.
Yu Hua's attitude is very straightforward. If any problem arises, he will face it head on and never escape until the problem is completely solved.
The road to industrial development in the base area must be done step by step, down to earth, accumulating valuable experience and technology, and building the most solid foundation.
In this way, on the road to industrialization that will reach nationwide scale in the future, we can take fewer detours, or even... no detours!
You see, during the first Five-Year Plan period in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, although the country had large-scale Soviet aid technical support, it still suffered a lot in various technical fields. There were even problems in various cutting-edge technical fields after the Soviet experts withdrew. An instant collapse situation.
What is someone else’s is ultimately someone else’s.
Only things that are gained through sweat and dedication are things that belong to you.
In the technical field, there is no overtaking in corners, only dedication and hard work day after day.
"If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight..." When Chen Kang heard these words, he felt a thunderbolt in his mind, his whole body was slightly shaken, and he was stunned for a moment.
This is the price we must bear to move forward and become stronger...
In an instant, the tightness in my chest caused by the rubber problem dissipated, and a surge of pride emerged involuntarily, rushing straight into my mind.
After a few seconds, Chen Kang came back to his senses, turned to look at Yu Hua, and nodded heavily: "You are right."
"There are two more good news. One is that the heavy weapons project has been established and grouped, and the other is that the high-grade iron ore purchased from Linfen is being sent to Yulin." Yu Hua squinted his eyes slightly, enjoying the warmth falling from the top of the sky. Sunshine's voice revealed a sense of confidence that belongs to him: "This high-quality iron ore will be a high-quality raw material for smelting heavy-duty howitzer barrels. If nothing happens, the project will bear fruit by October at the latest. I have this confidence." "
Hearing these two pieces of good news, Chen Kang was stunned, and then fell into a brief silence. His inner emotions were complicated. He felt happy and elated, but also powerless and depressed. The former came from the news of the results of the heavy howitzer in October, and the latter Mainly from physical instinct.
As a soldier, Chen Kang is very happy to see the troops equipped with 105mm heavy howitzers that were unthinkable in the past to improve their combat effectiveness. This feels great.
But as an individual, Chen Kang only had a feeling of facing 'other people's children', no, a feeling of being crushed by the talent and wisdom of the top geniuses of mankind... The instinct of his body made him feel powerless and Depression and other negative feelings.
Why?
Because Chen Kang couldn't develop a heavy howitzer even if he spent his whole life.
"Thank you. I don't know what to say other than thank you. First, thank you for your help and dedication. Second, thank you for making me realize that the efforts of ordinary people are not worth mentioning in front of geniuses." Chen Kang's mouth twitched slightly. , took deep breaths continuously, tried to maintain a good attitude, and looked at Yu Hua bathing in the sun beside him, his tone revealed a complicated meaning.
