Rebirth of the National Marshal

Chapter 401 Economic Development

Another thing that needs to be built is a cannery. There are so many different kinds of canned food in the Chahar local army every day. If there is no cannery to block it, everyone will soon become suspicious. In fact, many people are already suspicious now, so Mao Yuanshan wants to set up a cannery company, so that when others are suspicious, they will clearly think that it is produced by others.

The automobile factory was also established with the help of the Germans. Although the number of cars produced every day is limited and only a dozen cars can be produced per month, it is still a good start. Now there is only one production line. The most important thing is to train workers. If a few more months pass, hundreds of qualified workers can definitely be trained. At that time, we can discuss with the Germans and order a few more production lines, which will make the entire automobile company become larger.

After this period of development, the Chahar region is not without some skilled workers, but these skilled workers must be used where they are most needed, such as in the artillery company. This is where skilled workers are most needed. Other factories can be put on the back burner. The role of heavy artillery on the battlefield is enormous. If you don't have heavy artillery, then you can only be beaten.

The 150mm heavy artillery now used by the Chahar local forces are all produced by themselves, except for a batch purchased from the Germans in the beginning, all of them are now produced by themselves.

If Mao Yuanshan and his men had not beaten the Soviet Union into its current state, the Germans would probably not be willing to export the 150mm heavy artillery production line. It can be said that how much effort the Germans had wasted by bringing this production line to China, right?

The Germans often talked about their contributions in front of Mao Yuanshan, but Mao Yuanshan did not take these words to heart. We agreed at the beginning that as long as I could light a fire in the Far East, you would have to give me this support.

Besides, you Germans have been cooperating with the Japanese for such a long time, you must have some killer weapons that can control the Japanese. You can just take out one or two things to scare them. Can't you use this artillery production line?

Facts have proved that Mao Yuanshan's speculation was correct. This artillery production line landed directly in Tianjin and soon fell into the hands of the local government of Chahar. As for what method was used, we don't care, that is the secret of the Germans. What we want is this artillery production line.

At the beginning, this artillery production line caused a lot of trouble. There was even a major accident in the middle, which caused an explosion. However, these have all been resolved. Similar things will happen in all weapons production factories. It is absolutely impossible to go smoothly. There will always be some setbacks on the road to success. The more setbacks you encounter, the greater the reason for your success.

The artillery factory was a factory that Mao Yuanshan strongly advocated. Now, it can produce ten 150mm heavy artillery every month. Although the output cannot be compared with that of Germany, with the artillery imported from Germany, all the troops of the security regiment can obtain 35 150mm heavy artillery every month. This number is not small, especially in this era, it is not much different from the number obtained by the German army.

This is the output of the Japanese devils across the country, and the quality of their steel is not as good as ours. Our steelmaking equipment is all the same as that of the Krupp Steel Plant in Germany. Although the steel produced is slightly worse than that over there, there is no problem. They know that the artillery they produce can be used for several years longer than ours, but we don't need to do that. We can just make new ones. Moreover, during the production process, the workers' skills are becoming more and more proficient, and later we will be able to refine the same special steel as theirs.

The steel mills are now overwhelmed with orders, but the main product they produce is still rails. The entire Chahar region is now vigorously laying rails. Rail transportation is still the main artery in the war. Even if it is destroyed by an airplane, the repair time is much better than that of automobile transportation. At this stage, cars can only carry about five to six tons of things and cannot carry anything else, mainly because the engine horsepower is not enough.

It's like in the war against the Soviet Union, if Mao Yuanshan was not on the front line, the day after tomorrow would definitely be cut off. By then, let alone defeating the Soviet Union, there is a high possibility that the Soviet soldiers would launch a counter-encirclement war, and then the ones who would suffer would be themselves. This time, the security situation in the Yangtze River Delta can be seen. Tomorrow there will be a regiment of more than 2 people, and their transportation capacity is a bit insufficient. If Mao Yuanshan had not quickly exchanged a large number of transport planes, there would probably be big trouble.

The capacity of the German transport aircraft Junkers is also very large.

In the past few days, as long as it is daybreak, there are always about forty transport planes shuttling back and forth in the sky. Otherwise, the front line might feel the shortage of ammunition. There are still some clone soldiers on the front line who can forget themselves. If their number is not added, Zhang Dashan would be dreaming if he wants to suppress the Japanese with ammunition at the risk of his life!

It was at this time that Mao Yuanshan felt that it was time to develop his own power within his territory. So after arranging some issues on the Soviet front and leaving a large amount of ammunition supplies, Mao Yuanshan took a transport plane back to the Chahar Provincial Government.

This time we were out for about three months. When we were out, we didn't know what the outcome of the war with the Soviet Union would be. And at that time, we didn't know whether Mongolia could hold on, so we made two preparations and set up a line of defense at the border between Mongolia and Chahar. Now it seems that this line of defense is redundant. We can transport all these supplies and equipment to Irkutsk and set up a line of defense there.

"I didn't expect that during the three months I was away, this place has changed so much. It seems that the chief of staff has really put in a lot of effort. This road was not completed when I left, but now it is so smooth. It deserves praise!" After getting off the plane, the road from the airport to the provincial government was still a dirt road when Mao Yuanshan left. It was slightly smoothed, but three months later, a cement road had been built here. The speed has increased by 30% compared to before. In time of war, if the road leading to the airport is like this, it can save a lot of time.
