Travel through the 1945 super power construction secret base
Chapter 278 Rocket
At this time, the United States was busy dealing with the South Vietnam issue, so it hoped to resolve Indonesian affairs as soon as possible.
For them, the goal has been achieved and they just need to successfully gain a foothold in ASEAN.
What made them somewhat dissatisfied was that the Soviet Union did not lag behind and entered the region right after them.
Faced with Sukarno's unwilling intention to attack Sumatra, the United States did not stop him.
In any case, whether it succeeds or fails, the United States will not lose anything.
Since Nan Hua could not openly support the ethnic armed forces on Sumatra, it was difficult to prevent Sukarno from transporting troops to land on the island.
But there was an adequate supply of weapons and ammunition, especially anti-tank rocket launchers manufactured by Nanhua, which were delivered there in large quantities.
Sukarno received strong support from the United States and had a lot of armored forces. If Nanhua relied solely on firearms, it was worried that they would be unable to compete.
The first batch of 6,000 soldiers landed on South Sumatra with more than ten tanks, but were firmly restrained by local ethnic armed forces led by base guards.
These ethnic armed forces were equipped with American firearms produced in Xincheng and relied on their familiarity with the local terrain to constantly harass Sukarno's army.
Sukarno's troops tried to charge their tanks forward, but two of them were destroyed directly.
At this point, the remaining dozen or so tanks did not dare to leave the camp. They were all tank drivers who had just learned and were not skilled enough. Two of their tanks were destroyed, so how could they dare to drive out again?
If they defended the island for too long, they would lose it. The Indonesian military government troops that landed on the island kept urging Sukarno to send more reinforcements.
However, their own ferry transport capacity was insufficient and they could only transport more than a thousand people at a time, requiring multiple transportations.
The two sides fought a stalemate on the island of Sumatra.
At the same time, Suharto's evacuation of personnel received strong support from South China, which provided a large number of transport ships and airships.
Nanhua announced that this was a humanitarian rescue operation and that the supporting ships would only transport civilians and keep them away from the war.
Fortunately, Kalimantan and Java are not far apart, and every cargo ship can be fully loaded directly, and people are transported to a safe area in a crowded manner.
In this way, tens of millions of people were successfully evacuated.
Only after seeing that most people had left did Sukarno lead the PKI to evacuate.
Although the two sides temporarily stopped fighting, they did not actually officially declare a ceasefire, they just temporarily could not continue fighting.
From this day on, media from various countries began to refer to them as "South Indonesia" and "North Indonesia".
However, neither side accepts such a title, and both insist, both internally and externally, that they are the only ones who truly represent the whole of Indonesia.
This war, which lasted for nearly half a year, was no longer just a military confrontation due to An Yi's careful planning.
Both sides killed each other's ethnic group members, which led to a deep blood feud between them.
Even the Chinese suffered huge losses in this conflict, with nearly a thousand people killed.
These people ignored Nanhua's evacuation arrangements and insisted on staying in the area, believing that their prestige and wealth could protect them.
Eventually he died in the war.
Wang Ze couldn't help but feel deeply moved. Some people were really hard to save. Even if An Yi wanted to help, he couldn't control every chaotic situation.
The many Chinese who had gathered in Singapore to escape the war were also questioned one by one. Those who were willing to go to northern Indonesia could be sent there, while those who wished to join South China would be properly arranged and go through the naturalization procedures.
Faced with this situation, most people chose to join Nanhua, causing Nanhua's population to increase by more than two million again.
Today's Indonesia has been completely divided into three parts. Although the territory occupied by Suharto is the smallest, it is also the most essential part of the entire Indonesia.
Other areas may seem vast, but in reality they are uninhabited and densely jungled.
The ethnic armed forces had a population of just over two million, while Suharto controlled the majority of the Javanese population, totaling 24 million people.
Sukarno ruled over other ethnic groups and a small number of Javanese, with a population of more than 20 million.
The war resulted in millions of deaths, the vast majority of which were caused by retaliatory massacres by soldiers on both sides.
These massacres were not made public as both sides intentionally concealed them.
However, the number of soldiers who actually died on the battlefield was relatively small.
Despite the guidance of Soviet and American instructors, the combat capabilities of local soldiers were too weak. They often just blindly fired in faith, and once they found the situation unfavorable, they would quickly retreat and flee from top to bottom.
Wang Ze did not have too much energy to pay attention to the situation in Indonesia at this time. After all, Nanhua’s goal of splitting Indonesia had been achieved.
At this moment, he was on Koh Lanta, and Wang Jixin was also here.
They came here precisely to witness with their own eyes the historic moment of South China's first rocket launch.
The rocket launch site is located on this peninsula.
As the person in charge of aerospace affairs, Heinrich had previously been in charge of missile-related work in the research institute. When the Aeronautics and Space Administration was established, he was entrusted with the important task and sent here.
Looking at the rocket standing in the distance, Wang Ze couldn't help but ask curiously: "Why not launch multiple satellites at once?"
Wang Ze felt that it was a waste of resources to use such a huge rocket only to launch a satellite.
Facing Wang Ze's question, Heinrich responded with a serious expression: "Dear clan leader, since this is our first launch mission, the first consideration is to ensure success. The plan of launching multiple satellites with one rocket that you proposed will be properly arranged in the next launch."
Wang Ze nodded when he heard this. He could understand these people's concerns.
After all, they hope to succeed at the outset and lay a good foundation for subsequent development.
Although the technology of launching multiple satellites with one rocket has been mastered by scientific research, launching a single satellite still has smaller risks and complexities.
For them, it is crucial to ensure the smooth execution of the first mission.
This rocket is undoubtedly a world-leading product, with a powerful thrust of up to 4500 tons and a low-Earth orbit payload capacity of an astonishing 110 tons.
The reason for achieving such an achievement is not only due to the outstanding talents of the staff of the research institute, but also inseparable from the light steel resources owned by South China Country.
Light steel was widely used in the manufacture of this rocket due to its lightness, heat insulation and strength.
Since light steel is produced independently by Nanhua, the procurement cost is relatively low.
This is in stark contrast to the high prices when sold to the United States, the Soviet Union and other countries.
This is what makes it possible to build this high-performance rocket.
In addition, the emergence of integrated chips independently developed by the research institute has greatly simplified the control system of the rocket, thus providing technical support for the one-time launch of up to dozens of large communication satellites.
The satellites launched this time were communications satellites carefully developed by the research institute, each weighing twelve tons.
Because of its sufficient carrying capacity, the research institute does not need to sacrifice the performance of the satellite in order to reduce weight.
In this way, they can give full play to their technological advantages and build a satellite with powerful performance.
This satellite can fully meet South China's current communication needs.
As long as you have a terminal device, you can easily realize the satellite call function.
It is worth mentioning that under the inspiration of Wang Ze, the research institute successfully developed the telephone.
However, due to the immature technology, these phones were relatively large and felt like a heavy brick in the hand.
Nevertheless, they still represent the progress and innovation of Nanhua Technology.
Wang Ze: These problems will be solved over time.
