The design and paper parameters of the 107mm rocket launcher reported by Malinovka are really good. This new weapon has a simple structure, is small and easy to use but powerful. In addition, it is easy to save materials in production. It is simply ideal for infantry nowadays. A powerful weapon for swarm attacks.
Therefore, after studying what Malinovka reported, they quickly agreed to carry out the exchange.
After all, except for the thermal power station, which requires real money and silver, the other things given are just authorized production, and there is no substantial payment.
As for the several T-34 samples proposed by Gao Jianwu, it is a small problem compared with the 107mm rocket launcher technology. The above can just ask Malinovka to negotiate the quantity with Gao Jianwu.
The rest will be left to the working group to follow up on.
Gao Jianwu went to the mining area to inspect the construction of mines and thermal power stations. When he came back, Gao Jianwu not only brought back several trucks of copper ingots, but also deceived two thermal power station construction experts.
Gao Jianwu promised to build a 30,000-kilowatt thermal power station after the construction of the assisted 10,000-kilowatt thermal power station was successful, and he obtained a complete set of advanced 30,000-kilowatt thermal power station information.
There are no restrictions on experts building this thermal power plant. Give them the opportunity to come into contact with this advanced thermal power plant equipment in the world.
This is a trick used by Gao Jianwu. I didn't expect it to be equally useful for experts on Damao's side. As for using this technique, does it involve leaking secrets?
Gao Jianwu can't take care of such nonsense now. There is no patent law now, not to mention that every upgrade of the system will provide more surprising and good things.
From Gao Jianwu's perspective, 30,000 kilowatts, which is currently usable, can be regarded as a starting point. He comes from an era when units below 300,000 kilowatts will be eliminated. This 30,000 kilowatts is not taken seriously at all.
The most important thing now is to spawn this thermal power station and quickly develop heavy industry.
…
Damao 36th Division training ground.
100 tank trainees demonstrated to Gao Jianwu how to drive tanks in a simple formation on the training ground. Each of them formed a driving group of 5 people and drove 20 tanks. They were already in good shape.
As part of Ping An's training camp heading north, this group of tank trainees are basically proficient in tank driving.
Under tremendous pressure, the first batch of students sent out to study have made rapid technical progress.
For Gao Jianwu, they are also the most urgently needed talents for the development of the steel industry. However, considering the continued development, Gao Jianwu did not take all these people back and fish from the lake.
Instead, he chose to take 80 people back and prepare to exchange a group of new people to continue learning under the leadership of the older group of students who stayed to refine.
The cooperative training terms did not restrict this model of students training students, so Gao Jianwu got stuck. Anyway, the relationship between the two parties is relatively harmonious now, and the other party will not fall out because of the increased cost of training fuel.
What's more, by staying here, you can also get guidance from experienced tank experts, giving these students the opportunity to become real experts. Compared with unilateral exploration, which has limited help in improving technology, the way of learning by standing on the shoulders of giants is obviously much better.
Moreover, this method does not waste too much time of coach Damao, and he can continue to use Damao's resources to carry out tank driving training.
After simply picking up a little wool, Malinovka turned a blind eye to the hundreds of kilograms of high-strength liquor sent by Gao Jianwu. He didn't spend much time here anyway. So he simply sold the favor to Gao Jianwu.
The agreed 4 tanks turned into 8 thanks to Gao Jianwu's activities. Gao Jianwu, along with the driver Damao, drove the delivered tanks to a hidden place agreed to be received at the border.
For Gao Jianwu, who has driving experience, it is not too difficult to learn how to drive this thing. When Da Mao's people leave, before his own people come, Gao Jianwu explodes 16 more cars at lightning speed, turning it into 2 A fully equipped tank company!
It's not Gao Jianwu who is reluctant to explode more tanks, and the tank crew he brought out now can only drive so many tanks back, and Gao Jianwu has to drive one of them himself.
After all, a tank crew is also a driver, and a few talented people can learn it quickly like Gao Jianwu.
Gao Jianwu had no choice but to go back and forth with the team for such long distances. Apart from him personally going out to handle these things, no one else could replace him.
He even had to consider in advance to leave a tank to replenish fuel along the way back. What if the tank stopped after driving for a certain distance?
So when he went out with the truck fleet, he had already considered these factors. He exchanged military supplies for fuel from the system and set up several fuel supply stations at a distance of about 300 kilometers, leaving enough fuel supplies for these The tank can travel back to Jinyang.
There was nothing to say all the way. Even if there was an occasional problem with the car, the students who had learned the repair skills would repair it themselves and drive it back.
This time Gao Jianwu and his team came back very secretly and chose to quietly drive into a secret training camp near Jinyang at night.
In addition to dismantling one of them into parts and secretly sending it to the Jinyang Arsenal, the rest were used as training tanks and new trainees were selected from the entire army for training.
This time a tank crew of 300 people was selected.
There are a full 60 tank groups, which is equivalent to a small Japanese tank regiment.
Gao Jianwu organized it into six tank companies and set up the frame of two tank regiments. Obviously, these would be the two fists of the Eighth Route Armored Force.
I don't know who leaked the news. Gao Jianwu's tank regiment had just established its presence when the brigade commander came to visit.
"I said Gao Jianwu, you are really capable of doing things," the brigade commander shouted when he saw Gao Jianwu, "You went out and brought back more than 20 tanks. When will you go out again and do it for us?" Is a flight group coming back?"
"Brigadier, how can I be so capable? There is a shortage of airplanes everywhere, who is willing to give them to us? Unless we build them ourselves." Gao Jianwu said, dumbfounded.
"Then hurry up and start building it," the brigade commander said, half jokingly and half seriously.
"But today I'm not here to see the planes, I'm here to see the tanks. I heard that the tanks you brought back are very powerful. They can beat the little devil's bean tanks to pieces. Let's see what he looks like. Looks like."
The T34 tank is also considered a mainstream tank in this era. Since it was built not long ago, the brigade commander has never seen it.
So when I heard that this thing was brought back by Gao Jianwu, the brigade commander put down what he was doing and made sure to come over and broaden his horizons.
Enclosed in the training ground surrounded by mountains, tanks were rumbled one after another, but some of them were obviously driving crookedly. The students inside had obviously not yet mastered the ability to drive in a straight line, and they were rookies who had just started. .
Even so, the brigade commander still enjoyed watching it and stayed here for half an hour before he was satisfied and ready to leave.
He had seen the power of Japanese tanks, and now he saw that the barrel of his own tank was thicker and longer. He knew that it was even more powerful without firing the gun.
With this big killer weapon in hand, he will no longer feel constrained and unable to use his weapons when facing the Japs' chariot division in the future.
The best way to deal with tanks is to use tanks, but it turns out that there are no such conditions at all, so everything is in vain.
"Boy Gao, when will you be able to manufacture this tank?" The brigade commander returned his gaze from the training ground in the distance to Gao Jianwu. After all, this is what concerns him most.
"We have already built a prototype of the tank engine. There are actually not many technical bottlenecks with the rest. Our barrel processing technology will not pose a big problem for replicating this main gun. In addition, we have also obtained a full set of production equipment. I estimate that the process information will be available in two to three months at the latest.
It’s just that we need to optimize and improve on the original basis, such as the communication system. We will transplant the walkie-talkie communication system. It may take a certain amount of time to test. In this way, three months should be the best time for the complete version of the tank. It's possible time. "
Although the brigade commander felt that three months was still a long time, he had also learned real military techniques and knew that this time was already very tight and could not be faster.
"After the first prototype vehicle is developed, what is your approximate mass production capacity?" No matter how good the weapon is, it will not work if the quantity is not enough. The brigade commander asked the second key question.
“Based on the equipment and staffing of our factory, we can currently produce five vehicles a month which is the limit.
After all, we still have so many standard weapons that need to be produced.
The good news is that the machine tool base machine has now started producing new machine tool equipment. It is expected that we may double our current production capacity within 6 months.
If this is the case, by the sixth month, our tank mass production capacity may be able to reach 10 tanks a month.
But all this requires many prerequisites. The first one is whether our raw materials can be supplied?
Therefore, the progress of the steel plant that supplies the main materials is very critical. Our production line for producing special steel must be completed and put into operation in advance, and before this, our smelting power supply must be guaranteed.

At present, before the establishment of thermal power stations, we need to build more small hydropower plants. This interlocking matter ultimately requires more skilled workers to support our development.
Therefore, Brigadier, I suggest that we continue to increase recruitment nationwide and even overseas. Radio and newspapers in the border areas and all our external publicity channels should try their best to announce the talent gaps we need.
I have already asked the Nanyang working group to recruit high-end technical talents, but it is an enemy-occupied area and it is difficult for them to carry out many tasks. "Gao Jianwu put all kinds of difficulties directly on the table.
The brigade commander frowned after hearing this, and had no good solution.
