Feng Dafei didn't know what the airstrip built by Liu Yimin looked like, but he knew that the airstrips built urgently at this time generally did not have navigation equipment. They just found a piece of flat land, tamped the foundation, and tamped it down, which was equivalent to an apron. Like this
If he wanted to fly, he would have to light firewood and straw, and use thick smoke to indicate the direction of the airport to the aircraft, so that the pilot could find the airport and land smoothly. Therefore, he sent a message requesting to light smoke to indicate the location of the airport. This was also a native method.
After receiving a telegram from Liu Yimin to open the airstrip and welcome the first aviation group, Cai Zhong immediately called the Air Defense Command and asked Han Qianjin to personally organize the implementation to ensure the safe landing of the plane.
After making the call, Cai Zhong went to the Air Defense Command in person. Together with Han Qianjin, commander of the Air Defense Command and commander of the air defense brigade, and political commissar Zhou Huan, they rushed to the Zhujiazhuangzi airstrip and directed the soldiers to light several piles of dry firewood and wait for the fire to blaze.
After it was lit, he added wet grass and cow dung to the fire to start smoking. It wasn't until he saw several thick smoke floating into the air, forming a smoke column, that Cai Zhongcai smiled and said, "Okay, Feng Dafei and the others will definitely see it."
of."
Feng Dafei led the aviation group's aircraft formation from the sea to Shandong, flew northwest from Rizhao, and arrived over Dadian at 11:40 in the morning. It was completely safe when we arrived here. The plane emerged from the clouds and saw several people not far away.
There was a plume of smoke. Feng Dafei was filled with joy and shouted into the intercom: "Comrades, we are home. Lower the altitude and prepare to land!"
Fighter planes landed one after another at the Zhujiazhuangzi airstrip. Every time a fighter plane landed safely, there was a burst of cheers on the ground. It was not until all the planes landed that Feng Dafei landed with the fighter plane.
After getting off the plane, Cai Zhong, Han Qianjin, and Zhou Huan came up to greet Feng Dafei, and exchanged military salutes with Feng Dafei. Then Cai Zhong quickly stepped forward, hugged Feng Dafei tightly, and said loudly: "Comrade Dafei, congratulations on your victory."
Triumph!"
Then Cai Zhong, Han Qianjin, and Zhou Huan saluted and shook hands with the cadres and soldiers of the aviation brigade.
After the greetings were finished and before the officers and soldiers of the aviation team could take action, Han Qianjin directed the soldiers of the air defense brigade to push the aircraft into the hangar one by one. Feng Dafei laughed when he saw it. It turned out that the hangar looked a bit like the one in northern Shaanxi.
Cave dwellings are made by cutting the hillside into a cliff face, digging holes on the cliff face, and reinforcing the cave dwellings with bricks and pillars.
This time Feng Dafei was completely relieved. Following Cai Zhong, Han Qianjin, and Zhou Huan went to the division headquarters.
By the time Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan rushed back to the division headquarters, it was already the morning of the next day.
The two of them didn't bother to rest, and first met with all the cadres and soldiers of the aviation team. Then Liu Yimin took Feng Dafei to the office and asked in detail about the situation in Shaanxi and Wuhan.
According to Feng Dafei, the severe drought in Sichuan from the end of 1936 to the spring of 2037 affected most parts of Sichuan except the Sichuan Basin. Some counties even lost their harvests. The Nationalist government failed to provide disaster relief and many people starved to death.
In the second half of 1937, there was even a phenomenon of cannibalism. Even the Kuomintang's "Central Daily News" said that entering the hardest-hit area was like entering a hell on earth. Even the Guangyuan area controlled by our army basically had no harvest, and refugees basically flocked there.
After arriving in Shaanxi, coupled with the people who evacuated across the river from Shanxi and the young students who came to Shaanxi from all over the country to participate in the revolution, Shaanxi was under great food pressure. In addition, it had to ensure the supply of frontline troops. As a result, 36 years of grain reserves and 37 years of grain reserves were combined.
It was not enough to use up all the summer grain. After the instructors went to the front line, the central government stipulated that the cadres at all levels staying in Shaanxi would each have 6 taels of rations per person per day, and the troops would each have 8 taels of rations per day. Even Chairman Mao and the others ate grains, mixed with wild vegetables.
.
Liu Yimin knew all these situations, but he still felt heart palpitations when Feng Dafei talked about it. He quickly asked Feng Dafei how his current situation was.
Feng Dafei said that the situation improved after the autumn grain harvest in 2037. Since the land reform was carried out early, the common people have become the owners of the land. Every household regards the land as their lifeblood and cultivates it carefully. This year, Shaanxi's harvest is very good, especially in
The eight hundred miles of Qinchuan is simply a granary. The land is so fertile that you can grow whatever you plant. Only northern Shaanxi cannot be self-sufficient in food, and must provide grain relief. However, the population of Shaanxi has grown rapidly in the past two years, and with the addition of Guangyuan and Gannan,
Affected by last year's severe drought, there is a large food shortage and great pressure. The farms originally established by the Seventh Red Army Corps have now been handed over to the garrison divisions and security divisions. They mainly supply the central agencies, the Shaanxi Anti-Japanese Democratic Government and the security divisions and security divisions. He
After returning to Shaanxi, I went to see Comrade Chen Yun and Comrade Fuchun. They both praised the division commander for his great wisdom in carrying out military reclamation. However, Comrade Chen Yun said that he wanted to come to Shandong to have a look and discuss with you to see if he could think of ways to get more.
The grain was transported to the Shanxi base area. The Japs made Shanxi miserable. It was too difficult for the 115th Division, 120th Division, 129th Division, and independent divisions to raise military rations. The soldiers were hungry to fight the Japs.
Liu Yimin knew that after the fall of the Jizhong and Jinnan base areas, it was equivalent to destroying the granary of the Eighth Route Army's frontline troops, and the supply of several divisions in Shanxi must be tight. But he did not expect that the difficulties would be this severe. To say that the Shaanxi base area has experienced several consecutive
With the annual development, it should not be a problem to ensure the supply of frontline troops. Even if it is not available, you can still spend money to buy grain in Henan and other places. But when I think about it, I laugh. Even if the Shaanxi base area has a bumper harvest, after all, the grain output is limited at this time, and the Communists cannot turn a blind eye.
As we watched the refugees in Sichuan suffering, we must do everything we can to provide assistance, so Shaanxi must not have enough food. In addition, although the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are jointly resisting Japan, if the Communist Party and the Eighth Route Army want to buy food from the areas controlled by the Kuomintang army, I am afraid it is also a fantasy.
.Especially now, the Japanese army regards Shanxi and Henan as the main battlefields. If they want to get food from Henan and Shanxi, they will undoubtedly seize food from the tiger's mouth.
Liu Yimin wanted to know the damage to Shaanxi's industries in the Japanese bombing. Feng Dafei told him that the Mian County Ordnance Industrial Base, needless to say, was bombed into a mess by the Japanese army, and all the hard work was ruined. Now the cadres and workers of the arsenal have rescued it
Some of their equipment was moved to the deep mountainous areas of the Qinling Mountains in an effort to resume production. However, without the steel plants and power plants, they could only produce ordinary ammunition, such as rocket launchers, rocket launchers, and August 1st automatic rifles. They cannot be produced at the moment. Xi'an was also occupied by the Japanese army.
The explosion was beyond recognition, and citizens were evacuated to various counties. The only good thing is that some civilian factories originally built in the Qinling Mountains have not suffered too much damage, and can basically guarantee the production and supply of people's livelihood commodities. Tongguan's gold
Since the Yulin coal mine and the Yanchang oil field are relatively remote and have strict confidentiality measures, there has been no loss and they are in normal production.
Liu Yimin felt better when he heard this. With gold mines and oil fields, the economy of the Shaanxi base area will be relied on. Then Liu Yimin wanted to ask about the situation of the Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, but he stopped talking. One thing is that Feng Dafei may not know about the meeting.
Second, even if Feng Dafei knew about the situation, he couldn't ask Liu Yimin without talking about it. This was a war era, and discipline came first. There was no other way but to let Feng Dafei talk about the situation in Wuhan.
Feng Dafei reported the arrival of the Eighth Route Army Aviation Brigade to Luoyang to participate in the war, and then also reported the details of their arrival in Wuhan. Speaking of the embarrassing situation when Chiang Kai-shek summoned him, Liu Yimin couldn't help but smile and said: "This old Chiang Kai-shek, the last
He likes to play this game. He doesn’t even know who we are!”
Seeing that Liu Yimin was in a good mood, Feng Dafei reported on his meeting with Ni Hua. Unexpectedly, as soon as Ni Hua was mentioned, Liu Yimin immediately lowered his head and remained silent. After a long pause, Liu Yimin asked Feng Dafei to report in detail about the bombing of the Japanese aircraft carrier Longxiang.
The situation of the formation.
Only then did Feng Dafei tell the story of how he was ordered to bomb Wuhu, Anqing, and Nanjing airports, how he encountered the Japanese attack formation on the way to Wuhan, and how he decided to try his luck in finding the Japanese aircraft carrier formation on the sea near Shanghai.
After Feng Dafei finished speaking, Liu Yimin inquired about every aspect in detail, including the Japanese aircraft carrier formation, communication, warning and protection, etc. At the end, Liu Yimin had a sudden idea and asked Feng Dafei expectantly: "Dafei, do you think we can
Go directly to bomb Tokyo, Japan?”
Feng Dafei didn’t even think about it and said directly that it could be done. He explained the reason: “On May 19, two crews of the Chinese Air Force, Xu Huansheng and Tong Yanbo, flew Martin-139wc bombers for a long-distance attack at night to avoid the Japanese air defense warning system.
Japan. If they can do it, we can do it too."
Liu Yimin's eyes became even more eager: "CMA CGM, the Chinese army only sent two planes, and the planes were equipped with radio directional devices and Ningbo ground radio navigation. Our army has neither of these, so it is very difficult!"
When Feng Dafei heard Liu Yimin talking about bombing Japan, all the blood in his body surged up and he was full of energy. Seeing Liu Yimin mentioning that there was no radio direction finder and ground navigation, Feng Dafei turned around and attacked Liu Yimin's army: "Commander, you are our army
The legendary hero, the instructor is the first-class main force of our army. In Shandong, there are the Japanese Jinan Airport, Qingdao Airport, and Xuzhou Airport in the south. These are the backbone air force bases of the Japanese army. What kind of equipment is not there? Just take one
, we can bomb Japan right away. Think about it, if we bomb the Imperial Palace in Tokyo, how can little Japan be so rampant? Commander, it is your business to get the navigation system and aviation ammunition. I will be responsible for bombing Japan.
Palace, you won’t let us down, right?”
Liu Yimin was amused when he saw that Feng Dafei, who was eager to fight, actually turned his army against him, but when he thought that if he could really bomb the Japanese Imperial Palace and kill the warmonger Emperor Hirohito, he might really be able to change history again, his heart pounded.
.
He patted Feng Dafei on the shoulder and told him not to get excited. He quickly found a map to draw out the route, organized the aviation brigade to conduct targeted training, and when the conditions were met, he would definitely let him go for a walk over Japan.
Liu Yimin did not expect that good news would arrive one after another. After Feng Dafei left, Liu Yimin was about to go to Qian Zhuangfei to ask for the telegram during this period. Qian Zhuangfei accompanied three people to come to him. After the introduction, Liu Yimin was so surprised that he said:
What kind of day is today, and how come so many good things come together.
It turned out that the three people Qian Zhuangfei brought were all legends of our army. One was Li Qiang, a legendary talent in the history of our military's military industry and a famous radio communications expert; the other was Cao Cao, an expert in deciphering radio codes of our army and a legendary hero on the Long March.
Xiangren; the other is Qian Zhidao, a legendary figure in the chemical field of our military's military industry.
Liu Yimin knew that Li Qiang had not long returned to China after studying in the Soviet Union and was currently the deputy director of the Military Industry Bureau and Radio Bureau of the Military Commission. He did not expect that the central government would be willing to let him travel across the blockade to Shandong.
Li Qiang reported that although the Japanese air raid destroyed the Mian County military industrial base, the talents were retained. Due to the Japanese blockade, Shandong's equipment and equipment could not be transported back to Shaanxi. Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai simply asked Li Qiang to lead the team with a batch of projects
Technical personnel came to Shandong. Moreover, in view of the fact that the Japanese army frequently changed the codes during the battle with the instructors, which made it impossible for our army to decipher, Zhou Enlai was cruel and made one of the three heroes of our army to decipher the enemy's codes. He had won the third-class Red Star in the Central Soviet Area.
Cao Xiangren, who received the medal, was sent to Shandong as the political commissar of the Instructor Intelligence Analysis Division. He became a partner with He Xinghua and was led by Qian Zhuangfei. Unfortunately, he encountered a Jaap on the road and sacrificed some of his comrades.
Liu Yimin knew that both Li Qiang and Cao Xiangren had made great contributions in the history of our army.
Let me talk about Li Qiang first. This man is a pure genius. He was born in 1905 in Changshu, Jiangsu Province. His real name is Zeng Peihong and his courtesy name is Youfan. He was originally a student at the Nanyang Road Mining School in Shanghai. He joined the Party after the May 30th Movement and participated in the Shanghai workers’ armed uprising.
, to create explosives for the armed uprising. After Chiang Kai-shek's "April 12" coup, Zhou Enlai founded the Central Special Section, and Li Qiang was the communications section chief. At that time, the Sixth National Congress of the Communist Party of China decided to establish a radio station in order to adapt to the struggle situation. However, due to the white terror, the Kuomintang strengthened
After the blockade, the radio stations our party urgently needed could not be purchased on the market. With no other choice, Zhou Enlai asked Li Qiang to develop a radio station and sent Zhang Chenchuan, then secretary of the local party branch in the French Concession in Shanghai, to the 6th National Revolutionary Army Headquarters of the Kuomintang.
Military radio station to learn radio transmission and reception technology. After Li Qiang accepted the mission, he tried to buy a set of English version of radio textbooks used by American universities. In the name of radio enthusiasts, he cooperated with Yamei Company and Dahua Company, which operate American radio equipment in Shanghai.
I made friends with businessmen and purchased radio equipment, tools and related books and periodicals from them one after another. With a solid foundation in English, mathematics, and physics, I learned and explored in half a year, and built the first self-made machine in the history of our party and army.
A wireless transceiver was successfully trial-installed. Then, before the radio station started operating, Li Qiang assembled several transmitters and quietly took them to large ships at various docks in Shanghai to sell them. He not only became proficient in the technology, but also
Earning some money solved the urgent need of the Special Branch's financial constraints. In the second half of 1929, the central government officially decided to establish the first radio station. Li Qiang and Zhang Chenchuan established the first radio station in Fukangli Road, West Pole Road (today's Wanhangdu Road) in Shanghai.
No. 9 rented a three-story building as the secret site of the radio station. After several tests, the radio station was operating well. After receiving the good news of the successful birth of our party's first radio station, Zhou Enlai personally compiled the history of our party and our army.
After reading the first code book, it was decided that Li Qiang would be in charge of the station's maintenance and Zhang Chenchuan would be in charge of the radio. By the end of 1929, Li Qiang took Huang Shangying, the first radio operator jointly trained by himself and Zhang Chenchuan, to establish a second secret radio station in Kowloon, Hong Kong.
Taiwan. In January of the following year, the notification in Shanghai and Hong Kong was successful, becoming the first pair of notification radio stations created by the CCP itself. By 1932, the voice of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China could be timely conveyed to major base areas across the country through secret radio stations. After Gu Shunzhang’s rebellion,
Li Qiang assisted Zhou Enlai and others in transferring institutions and personnel and then went to the Soviet Union via Harbin. He studied at the Academy of Communications Sciences of the Soviet Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, engaged in scientific research, and did teaching work. He devoted himself to the field of communications research that he was good at and became a famous communications scientist. During this period, he published
He published a radio science paper "Sending Diamond Antenna", which caused a shock in the Soviet radio industry. He was promoted to researcher by the Soviet government and became one of the seven radio experts in the Soviet Union. His name was included in the Soviet encyclopedia dictionary, and his research results were named "
Li Qiang's formula".
Let’s talk about Cao Xiangren, this is an intelligence warfare expert trained by our army. During the first counter-encirclement and suppression campaign, our army captured Zhang Huizan and Tan Daoyuan’s first and a half radio station. Mao Zedong and Zhu De immediately decided to open a Red Army radio training class. Cao Xiangren was a Red Army radio
A trainee in the first training class of the Third Army Corps. Later, he was transferred to the Red Army headquarters to engage in reconnaissance code research. In August 1932, he and Comrade Zeng Xisheng deciphered the enemy code for the first time and made great contributions. Later, he participated in various counter-encirclement and suppression campaigns.
During the War and Long March, Cao Xiangren became a radio reconnaissance expert of the Red Army and was regarded as the "lantern" of the Red Army by Mao Zedong.
Cao Xiangren was once a subordinate of Qian Zhuangfei, but he specialized in the art. Although Qian Zhuangfei and He Xinghua were also experts in code deciphering, they were mainly experts in code interpretation. This Cao Xiangren was specialized in code deciphering. Historically, he was in 1941
In 2001, he wrote the book "Introduction to Cryptozoology".
With Cao Xiangren, the little devil's movements could not escape Liu Yimin's eyes.
Qian Zhidao was a native of Shaoxing, Zhejiang. He graduated from the Chemistry Department of Zhejiang University, majoring in theoretical chemistry. Historically, he only began to study poison gas and gas masks at the Nanjing Institute of Applied Chemistry and the Taiyuan Institute of Chemistry in 1937, and did not arrive in Yan'an until 1939.
Historically, our army's first basic chemical products and explosives manufacturing factory was built by him. However, history has changed now. After Liu Yimin occupied Xi'an, he asked the central government to take measures to attract intellectuals to Xi'an. Money
Zhidao's ideas were progressive and he was selected by the Zhejiang underground party and sent to Xi'an. When Liu Yimin founded the gunpowder factory of Mianxian Arsenal, Qian Zhidao participated in the work and soon stood out and became the director of the gunpowder factory.
With Li Qiang, Liu Yimin knew that the Eighth Route Army's communication capabilities would be greatly improved. You know, Liu Yimin himself is a top student at Peking University, and he has a lot of theories, designs and processes that are far more advanced than this era, but he can't say.
With a top expert like Li Qiang, Liu Yimin only needs to give a little guidance at critical times, such as radar and radio navigation, and everything is a piece of cake.
