Courtyard House: I Rely on Time-Space Trade to Build a Nation

Silence. In an instant, the command room fell silent.

Only the faint ticking of a radio and the distant chants of training could be heard from outside the courtyard.

几位正在记录或旁听的参谋已经彻底停下了笔，张着嘴，瞪大了眼睛，仿佛怀疑自己的耳朵。200门122炮？60门155炮？100辆坦克？2000辆卡车？2000挺重机枪？2000具火箭炮？两万支火箭筒？还有……一百万瓶青霉素？！

This is hardly a "greeting gift"! It's like emptying a corner of a powerful nation's strategic reserves and sending it over!

The firepower, mobility, and sustained combat capability represented by this list are enough to enable the entire Central Plains Field Army to achieve a qualitative leap in combat effectiveness, and even surpass any enemy main force in the country!

Commander 201 slowly stood up, his usually composed and refined face unable to conceal his shock and excitement; his hands even trembled slightly. He walked around the table to Zhao Ping'an, reached out and tightly grasped Zhao Ping'an's hands, shaking them vigorously, repeatedly saying, "Good! Good! Good! Comrade Ping'an, thank you so much! This support is too heavy! Too heavy!"

Political Commissar 202 had already stood up, his face beaming with undisguised excitement and pride.

"Excellent! Comrade Zhao Ping'an, this is truly a tremendous gift! Now, our Zhongye Army is going to stand tall and proud!"

He turned to the still-stunned staff officers and shouted, "What are you all standing there for? Did you hear me? Immediately notify all relevant departments at headquarters—logistics, equipment, operations, communications… all responsible personnel—to come here for a meeting within half an hour! We must prepare to receive these precious assets as quickly as possible, allocate them, train them, and establish combat readiness! Not a single second can be wasted!"

"Yes, sir!" The staff officers snapped out of their daze, responded with a roar, and rushed out to relay the orders with faces full of excitement and disbelief.

201 held Zhao Ping'an's hand tightly, not letting go. He carefully examined the young man who had created a miracle, filled with emotion:

"Comrade Ping An, what you brought was not just guns, cannons, and vehicles; you brought timely rain and an iron backbone to our Central Plains Field Army and the entire Central Plains War! On behalf of all the commanders and soldiers of the Central Plains Field Army, I express my heartfelt gratitude to you and to the patriotic heroes behind you!"

202 also came over, patted Zhao Ping'an heavily on the shoulder, and his eyes gleamed with wisdom:

"The items on the list are good, but the key is how to use them effectively. Comrade Ping An, now that you're here, don't even think about leaving right away!"

How can we maximize the effectiveness of these new vehicles? How can we integrate them with our existing tactics, especially how can we make good use of these two thousand trucks to create our own unique mobile annihilation warfare capabilities? You need to stay a few more days and talk to us and the commanders below about this, so that we can turn this great asset into a victory as soon as possible!

Zhao Ping'an felt the strength in the hands of the two leaders and the unwavering trust and reliance in their eyes, and a surge of warmth welled up in his chest. He nodded vigorously:

"Please rest assured, both leaders! Political Commissar Xu and I will fully cooperate to help the comrades of the Central Plains Field Army master the new equipment and study new tactics as soon as possible!"

Let's work together to carve out a new world in the Central Plains!

"By the way, Comrade Ping An, I remember 502 and 103 said that you also provided them with communication equipment. 502 also said that you approved a new method called information networking?" Chief No. 201 suddenly asked a question.

"Yes, sir. It's like this. I had originally prepared a set of equipment, about 500 individual footphones and 100 repeater footphones. But I thought that after receiving the new equipment, we would need at least a month to adapt. They also gave me a new batch of communication equipment, which are vehicle-mounted repeater radios. The communication range is about 100 to 200 kilometers, which is 10 times the range of individual repeater stations. So I didn't report the communication equipment just now, intending to give everyone a surprise," Zhao Ping'an replied with a smile.

"Well done, Comrade Zhao Ping'an, you were waiting for us here! This is quite a pleasant surprise!" Commander 202 patted Zhao Ping's shoulder with a smile.

"Sir, actually I have two more ideas." Zhao Ping'an subconsciously scratched the back of his head.

"Comrade Ping An, speak freely. You have more ideas and more advanced technical knowledge than us. Speak freely!" Chief 202 encouraged with a smile.

"Previously, Commander 502 wanted me to establish a factory cluster similar to Harbin in Shandong Province, which I would call an industrial base. I think Henan Province has abundant coal resources, which can provide fuel for thermal power plants, so we can also establish an industrial base here. This would make it easier to replenish supplies in the future, and we would feel more confident, wouldn't we?"

"Alright, Comrade Ping An, let's hold a meeting on the distribution of supplies first, and then we'll hold a meeting on the construction of the industrial park!" 202 said, settling the matter.

With Zhao Ping'an's proposal to establish a small-scale industrial system, the atmosphere at the Nakano Command became even more enthusiastic.

If the previous arms list was like adding claws and steel teeth to a tiger, then this industrial plan...

It is about forging a heart and blood vessels for this fierce tiger that can continuously produce blood and beat strongly.

Political Commissar 202 acted swiftly and decisively; less than two hours after the meeting ended,

The framework of the "Central Plains Field Army Rear Industrial Construction Leading Group" was thus established.

Commander 201 personally took charge as honorary group leader, while Political Commissar 202 served as group leader.

Zhao Ping'an and Xu Yuanshan were appointed as deputy leaders, and the logistics minister, chief of staff, security minister of the Central Plains Field Army, and key local cadres of the western Henan base area became core members.

A highly classified draft of a preliminary plan for establishing a small-scale integrated military industrial production system in western Henan Province.

Thanks to the tireless efforts of Zhao Ping'an and several staff officers, it quickly took shape.

The core of the plan is "decentralization, concealment, supporting facilities, and rapid implementation".

Drawing on the experience of Harbin, but with greater emphasis on adapting to the terrain of the Central Plains mountainous region and the current urgent war situation.

The site selection process was initiated immediately.
