Chapter 278 The Power of Industry

The fleet arrived at the sea off Da Nang at about 6:15 in the evening. Looking from the deck of the battleship to the shore, the entire city was shrouded in the afterglow of the setting sun. The Son Tra Peninsula in the southeast shone with golden light, and the sea was smooth and comfortable. The beach and the coconut groves that line the circular coast exude a unique charm amidst the curling smoke of cooking fires in the evening.

Da Nang is located in the wasp waist zone in central Vietnam. Excellent seaports are located along the Han River, the west bank of the river mouth and the southeastern bay surrounding the southwestern part of the Son Tra Peninsula. The main military port is located in a water depth of 25 meters after dredging, and can berth 100,000-ton giants. From the ship's Son Tra Peninsula to the depression on the right bank of the river mouth.

During the war, the area, including the Son Tra Peninsula, was classified as a military management zone.

There is a radar tower built on a peak 620 meters above sea level on the west side of the Son Tra Peninsula, with obvious targets. There is a lighthouse on the northeastern slope of the mountain. At night, the signal can be received on the sea 28 nautical miles away. Along the coast of the Son Tra Peninsula and the east coast of the Han River Estuary , there are a total of six forts built on the west bank, all equipped with 203mm cannons. There is also a missile battalion deployed in the mountains more than 400 meters in the middle of the Son Tra Peninsula.

The "Kunlun" aircraft carrier slowly stopped at the dock. Since the Military Commission and the General Staff required An Yi's whereabouts to be kept secret, the military and political officials in Da Nang City did not hold a grand welcome ceremony.

At this time, Pu Yuze, director of the Military Control Commission of Da Nang Municipality, Colonel Tan Zhen, commander of the military division, Colonel Sang Phong, commander of Da Nang Naval Base, and Colonel Wen Yiyuan, political commissar, as well as more than 20 government and military cadres, were already waiting below the aircraft carrier.

First came An Yi's bodyguards and bodyguards. The guards disembarked and quickly deployed their defenses.

Five minutes later, Shen Fengdao and Lin Yaodong, two generals, accompanied An Yi on the lift on the side of the deck and went directly down to the pier.

Tan Zhen, Sang Feng, Wen Yiyuan and other school officials quickly stepped forward to salute. An Yi returned the salute to these school officials one by one, clearly calling each of them by name, giving brief greetings, and making some small jokes. Everyone feels like a spring breeze.

Finally, An Yi looked at Pu Yuze, who was coming up, and said with a smile: "Yuze, Da Nang has developed very well in recent years. I can see from the ship that all along the bay to the north are urban areas. You, the director of the Military Control Commission, are not simple!"

As one of the third batch of overseas students sent abroad by the government in 2030, Pu Yuze studied engineering management in the United States. After returning to China in 2034, he first worked for the Sichuan South Group for three years and became a middle-level cadre of the group. In early 2037, he was transferred to the military logistics After An Jiajun took control of Annam in 1938, he was first urgently appointed as the director of the Lao Cai City Military Control Commission. In 1939, he officially served as the director of the Da Nang Military Control Commission. He has been working there for four years now.

In the past four years, with the connection of the north-south and east-west railways, resources, machinery, equipment, and product resources from all over southwest China and the Indochina Peninsula have been continuously gathered here. Da Nang has developed at a rapid pace.

As the largest port in the central region, Da Nang’s maritime transportation is extremely convenient. At the same time, the surrounding areas of Da Nang have large gold, copper and coal mines. Agriculture includes rice, wheat, corn, tea and rubber planting, and industrial sectors include alkali production, textiles, and rubber. , cement, papermaking, steel, military industry, shipbuilding, petrochemical and other aspects, Pu Yuze ranks among the best in the assessment list of major government officials across the country.

Hearing An Yi call out his name, Pu Yuze, who was feeling uneasy, bowed excitedly to An Yi, then held An Yi's outstretched hand tightly and said in a choked voice: "Thank you, Chairman, Yu."

Ta Nang has not done enough and deserves such praise. I hope to work hard and in five to ten years, make Da Nang the first in terms of economic aggregate among municipalities and provincial capitals!"

An Yi was a little surprised, but then smiled and said: "Comrade you have a good idea, but it is very difficult to implement it. Mumbai, Calcutta in the subcontinent, Karachi at the mouth of the Indus River. Jingnan City in the Chao Phraya River plain, Saigon at the mouth of the Mekong River, Ma

Come to Singapore, the southern tip of the peninsula. And Taiyuan, the steel capital, are your strong competitors.

Hands on, these cities have better foundations than Da Nang, with abundant surrounding resources and a larger economic radiation area. Although Da Nang is good, it has many inherent shortcomings. Therefore, I appreciate your courage, but I also hope that you will do what you can.

However, I don’t want anyone to ignore reality for the sake of performance, as that will only harm others and themselves.”

Pu Yuze solemnly said: "Chairman, I have considered this. With the construction of the Songgu Nuclear Power Station at the source of the Songgu River in the northeast of Da Nang, the energy problems that plague our economic development will come to an end in the next five years.

To effectively solve the problem. At present, the main east-west railway line connects the Bolofing Plateau, Nakhon Ratchasima Plateau, Sichuan Plateau and Shan State Plateau. Da Nang has become an important outlet for southwest China and the central and western regions of Indochina.

"From Da Nang as the home port to China's southeastern coastal ports, the mileage of the sea route is equivalent to that of Haiphong Port that bypasses the Leizhou Peninsula. The distance to the Luzon Islands, New Guinea and Australia is even closer. After peace in the future, the above resources will be enriched

It is more convenient to import ore resources into the region, which determines that our steel plants, which are currently only at the middle and lower levels in the country, are expected to develop greatly in the future.

“Of course, Quy Nhon, the capital of Thai Nguyen Province, also has similar development opportunities, but as the capital of the Champa Kingdom for five consecutive centuries, Quy Nhon is a famous historical and cultural city, and it is also the gateway to Xuan Huong City, a scientific and cultural research center.

It is unlikely that the central government will fully support its development efforts.

At best, we can maintain the current scale of aircraft, ship, automobile manufacturing and aluminum, salt production, aquatic product processing and other industries, but it is very difficult to go further. After all, as a rare summer resort in Indochina, no one wants to go there.

The green mountains and green waters are seriously polluted!”

An Yi's eyes lit up and he said with appreciation: "It's good that you can see so far. In that case, I will give you enough time to realize your ambition. When the war is over, I will let you shoulder the responsibility of personnel and administration."

, develop Da Nang well. If your wish is really achieved, I will let you work in the central government and focus on industry. We will strive to completely catch up with or surpass the level of the United States in ten to twenty years!"

Pu Yuze's eyes suddenly turned red and he nodded heavily at An Yi.

At this time, Feng Jieyun and Jiang Fengying also got off the ship and came to An Yi. Lieutenant General Li Haiqing, commander of the First Fleet, still needed to deal with fleet affairs. Therefore, he simply met with the military and political officials in Da Nang and rushed back to his place.

The flagship battlecruiser HMS Honor went.

Pu Yuze briefly discussed with Colonel Tan Zhen, commander of the military division, and consulted An Yi for his opinion, before deciding on the next itinerary. An Yi was very interested in Pu Yuze, an administrative official with thinking ahead of his time, and asked Feng Jieyun and Jiang Fengying to separately

In the car, he took Pu Yuze's hand and got into the bulletproof off-road vehicle in the middle of the convoy. Shen Fengdao consciously sat in the passenger seat of An Yi.

As the motorcade was traveling, the two of them became more and more congenial as they talked.

Pu Yuze pointed to the eastern coastline and said to An Yi: "Da Nang is blessed with unique tourism resources. The ancient capital of Hue in the north, the ancient city of Hoi An in the south, and the holy land of My Son in the southwest have great influence among Europeans and Americans, especially the French.

Very extensive. When there is peace in the future, we will make these more than 30

The seaside beaches here have been developed. Think about it under the blue sky and white clouds. People are playing in the water on the beach, swimming freely, drinking the special coconut juice here when they are thirsty, and eating delicious seafood when they are hungry. How pleasant it is.

Life! I believe that Da Nang’s tourism industry will achieve great development in the future!”

An Yi deliberately asked: "Are you biting off more than you can chew? Aren't you determined to develop Da Nang into the number one economic city? Think about the origin of London's 'Fog City', modern industrial development and environmental protection.

There is a huge conflict, how do you reconcile this contradiction?"

Pu Yuze pointed to the Han River to the west: "The layout of our entire city in Da Nang is bounded by the Han River. A huge industrial belt will be built along the Songgu River in the northwest to Da Nang Bay, and contiguous residential areas will be built in the middle.

To the south is the University Town. Between Hanjiang and the University Town, the largest commercial shopping, financial and sightseeing center will be built, while in the west of the city, a professional commodity wholesale market will be developed, radiating to the surrounding areas and even the entire Indo-China Peninsula."

An Yi was very satisfied when he heard this: "This development idea is very good. As long as you pay attention to environmental protection while developing industry, you may be able to realize your wish. But I must first state that everything must rely on your own efforts.

, the central government will not take special care of it!"

Pu Yuze said with a smile: "As long as the central government can continue to provide support for infrastructure construction in Da Nang, it will be enough. As a short-term goal, I hope that the civil deep-water terminals along the Da Nang Bay will be expanded from the current two to ten, and the number will be reached within five to eight years.

Twenty, fifteen years

It will reach 50 within a year. The long-term goal is 65, which will include a 150,000-ton crude oil terminal and a 100,000-ton ore unloading terminal, as well as professional container berths and 50,000-ton liquid chemical berths.

It truly laid the foundation for Da Nang’s economic development.”

An Yi took a breath after hearing this: "You are so loud... After these projects are built one by one, how much will it cost to realize them? Do we need to take into account the development of other areas?"

Pu Yuze explained: "When the world war ends in the future, the military will definitely undergo major disarmament. We can convert these troops into specialized mechanized construction teams, plus the millions of prisoners of war captured during the war, all of which will be used for infrastructure construction.

, spend money

Much less than imagined. I heard that the central government is preparing to promote our Hua Yuan to the world as an international reserve currency. At that time, these construction funds can be realized through additional currency issuance, etc., which will greatly stimulate and

Promote the overall development of our country’s economy.”

An Yi was about to refute, but the motorcade had stopped. It turned out that the destination of this trip was the Marble Mountains. Marble Mountains is located ten kilometers southeast of Da Nang City. It stands along the seaside and is divided into golden peaks, wooden peaks, and peaks.

Among the water peak, fire peak and earth peak, the water peak is the largest and has the most beautiful scenery. The President's Palace, which was converted from a luxury villa area built by the French, is located on the mountainside of the water peak.

Dinner is all local delicacies, including chicken noodle soup, seasonal spring rolls, sugar cane shrimp, sesame crackers and a variety of seafood. It has very strong local characteristics. The dishes are light in flavor and finely made, supplemented by special spices and seasonings. Basically

It can meet the needs of various tastes.

After dinner, Feng Jieyun stayed at the Chairman's Palace to rest. An Yi decided to go to Da Nang Shipyard for an inspection. Jiang Fengying accompanied him as a special reporter of "Liberation Daily". When waiting at the shipyard, An Yi found that Zhou Ziwei, who had disappeared all afternoon, also appeared in the team and began to fulfill his duties.

Her duties as a military newspaper reporter.

The shipyard is located in the northwest of Da Nang Bay, behind it is the Da Nang Steel Plant with an annual output of 600,000 tons of steel. At the foot of Han Mountain to the north of the steel plant is the Da Nang Military Factory.

The Da Nang Shipyard was originally located in Son Tra Port in the east of Da Nang Bay. However, according to the unified deployment of the Military Control Commission, it took three years to gradually move to its current location. At the same time, it also used the natural caves in the offshore area of ​​​​Han Mountain to build a highly concealed shipyard.

submarine manufacturing base.

The entire coast, starting from the northernmost Han Island to the mouth of the Songgu River, is dotted with huge factory areas, ranking among the top three among all large shipyards in terms of scale.

So far, the entire shipyard has two 50,000-ton berths, four 10,000-ton berths, and eight 5,000-ton berths. One fully enclosed 100,000-ton shipyard, four 50,000-ton shipyards, and 10,000-ton shipyards.

Eight docks and slipways at all levels

There are 40 supporting overhead cranes, five large outfitting docks, 12 hull combined workshops, nearly 100 mechanical, electrical, turbine, tool and other workshops, as well as oxygen stations, acetylene stations, 550 kV substations and other ancillary projects.

.

The shipyard also has specialized factories such as diesel engine branch, propeller branch, valve branch, anchor chain workshop, etc. It can build various ships of less than 100,000 tons and undertake repairs of various types of ships of less than 50,000 tons.

When An Yi, accompanied by chief engineer Zhuo Wuhuai, director of the shipyard, entered each production workshop and had close contact with the master workers, he found that everyone was working in full swing, and no one paid attention to the workers wearing safety helmets and labor protection suits.

An Yi and his party.

Among them, at Dock No. 6, An Yi happened to see the entire superstructure of a thousand-ton ship being slowly lowered to the dock via an overhead crane amidst the whistles of workers on the tower.

The whole superstructure of this kind of ship is assembled, welded and pre-outfitted as a general section on a special platform. When the hull is built in the dock, the upper general section process is basically completed, and then only the two are combined together.

.

At this time, what is placed on the dock is the hull of the ship that has been closed up through segmented construction. As long as the overall positioning of the superstructure of the ship is successful, it means that the main basic process of this "Xuanyuan" class heavy cruiser has been completed.

"Didi——"

Following the whistle of workers holding red flags, workers operating overhead cranes carefully lowered the steel cables, while hundreds of workers distributed around the elevated cranes kept using ropes to move the entire superstructure of the hull to adjust its position.

, so that it can be accurately lowered into the positioning pin.

When the entire superstructure of the ship was hoisted to less than 100 mm from the hull, the workers holding the red flag quickly blew the whistle. At the same time, they kept waving the red flag to signal the surrounding workers to quickly adjust their positions.

We are about to enter the most critical place.

"Click——"

About five or six seconds later, when there was a sound of metal hitting each other, An Yi, who looked carefully through the telescope, found large beads of sweat on his forehead. The whole process was so thrilling.

At this time, eighteen engineers began to pick up the ruler and check everywhere. About a quarter of an hour later, deafening cheers rang out from the elevated platform. It turned out that after review, the entire hoisting deviation was only three to five millimeters. For a ship with a displacement of more than 9,000 tons,

For a ship, such a slight error is almost negligible, which means that the process is successfully completed, and only welding is needed to join the two parts together.

Chief Engineer Zhuo Wuhuai introduced with pride: "Our shipbuilding technology is basically at the forefront of the world. The construction of a ship's hull is divided into bottom sections, side sections, bow and stern sections, and slipway.

A total of four process lines are combined, each

The process line has separately set up component molding, plane segmentation, small three-dimensional assembly, and three-dimensional segmentation workstations. Five specific measures have been implemented to determine workstations, locations, personnel, equipment, and quality standards to ensure that the ship can be used to the greatest extent possible.

Smooth manufacturing.

"In order to ensure the construction period, we implement three shifts. Each worker works twelve hours, including eight hours of normal work, four hours of inspection, pre-repair and learning time, in order to do our best to improve the slipway and dock.

Utilization rate. After comparison, a ship of 7,000

A cargo ship with a ton of cargo can be launched in only thirty-six days. A destroyer of two thousand tons can be built on the slipway in only four weeks. A gunboat of five hundred tons can be built in only twelve days.

, this construction speed is probably more than ten times that of the Japanese."

"OK!"

An Yi was very happy after hearing this. He didn't know what words to use to praise the master workers who took it all for granted. By two o'clock in the morning, An Yi visited a total of more than 60 production workshops and finally came to a heavily guarded place.

The shipyard is where the "Yangtze" class guided missile destroyers are produced.
