The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

At this moment, the two of them started arguing about this -

The intensity of the quarrels among these scholars was actually more intense than that among warriors, because they were all cultured people who were well-read in poetry and books, and they could speak eloquently and had a lot of profound truths to say.

Jiang Cheng felt a little suffocated after hearing this.

Time is pressing, and military construction and industrial development must be carried out in parallel.

It was impossible for him not to participate in the Zhi-Feng War. The army was the guarantee for the front, and the industry was the support for the rear.

Both hands must be extremely strong, otherwise,
"Master Jiang, what do you think about this?"

While he was thinking, Yang Yucheng's voice suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

Jiang Cheng leaned forward slightly, narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Haha, all of you think tanks are devoted to research, or are returned overseas students, and all of you are well-read. How come this problem can't be solved right away?"

"I have listened carefully to your arguments just now - they are all about electricity generation, transportation of iron ore, coal, etc., right?"

Yan Ziwen nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes! Feilan, we have also considered it carefully. The only power plant that can meet the power demand is the Second Thermal Power Plant located in the far suburbs of Jilin, near Songhua Lake."

"The load capacity is fully capable of covering the electricity demand of the steel plant, and can also meet the needs of nearby——"

Han Yanchao immediately responded, "But Master Jiang, there is a problem here... Although the Second Power Plant can meet the power generation needs of the steel plant, our power distribution system cannot do so."

Yang Yucheng also said immediately: "In other words, the power generation of the Second Power Plant is sufficient, and it is not realistic to distribute it to the steel plant-"

"First, we don't have such developed power distribution facilities; second, even if we import from the United States again, our technology is not up to standard... The last and most important point is that the entire power distribution system needs to be maintained all year round, especially in Jilin, where winter is long every year."

“The longer the distribution network, not only will the cost be higher, but we will also have to invest more in the middle and the maintenance will be more difficult.”

Jiang Cheng did not rush to speak throughout the whole process, but calmly listened to the civil servants' eloquent speeches, and finally added: "What you said is very valuable for reference--"

"But I would also like to add that the longer the pipe network is, does it mean that it is easier for someone to find a gap to damage it?"

"Even if we add more inspectors, accidents are still likely to happen. Once they are damaged, the impact on the steel plant's production will be too great."

Everyone looked at each other...what their leader said was not something they had not experienced;

When the second power plant was being built, it was sabotaged twice by Japanese agents.

Although both times there were close calls, everyone remembered one thing in their hearts: the bad guys are always thinking about destruction - they will never give up their desire to destroy us.

"But if the steel plant is not connected to the grid with the second power plant, the amount of electricity... will definitely not be enough to meet the demand."

Han Yanchao was in a dilemma. "Even if a power plant was fully loaded, even if the electricity supply in the entire Jilin Prefecture was shut down, the power generation would still be far from enough to meet the electricity demand of the steel plant."

He advocated rebuilding the steel plant according to the American design to a level consistent with the world's advanced standards.

But even if he has ideas and blueprints for development, the most difficult problem to solve in the short term is electricity.

“What if the entire steel mill is moved away?”

Jiang Cheng suddenly said, "Hasn't the modification accessories been disassembled yet? You guys just looked at the drawings recently—"

"It's like the renovation work hasn't even started yet... So sharpening the knife doesn't delay the chopping of wood. We can just ship the renovation accessories to the Second Power Plant, which is right opposite the Second Power Plant. Why not move the steel plant there?"

All the technicians present were stunned.

Move? This is an idea, but it is more difficult than rebuilding a power plant!
"I'll give you three days to take inventory of which equipment can be used after being dismantled and which is scrapped—"

Jiang Cheng tapped the tabletop lightly with his slender fingers and continued, "Take away what can be taken apart, and leave what cannot be taken apart, or what will break easily if taken apart, in place."

"Study this carefully with American experts and come up with a relocation plan for me within three days... Let them see what equipment I need to buy if it can't be removed. We'll take it all!"

When this order was given, everyone was shocked.

"Yes, Master Jiang!"

Everyone exchanged glances and quickly responded in unison.

"What Yan Chao said makes sense. If we want to develop, we must develop to the most advanced level in the world!"

"Bullets, small guns, small cannons, etc. How can we have enough just to play with these?"

"We will produce heavy artillery, field artillery, close-in defense artillery, tanks, future aircraft, and even warships in the water!"

At this moment, Jiang Chengsheng saw that everyone's eyes had become respectful, so he slowly stood up and said, "Everyone listen..."

"Think about our current situation: after the European war is over, will the world be peaceful?"

"No, not at all. From the previous battle in Harbin and the continuous fighting in Siberia, everyone can see that, right?"

"The Japanese are our mortal enemies, but are there any friendly ones among the Russians, Britain, France, and the United States?"

Yan Ziwen shook his head and was the first to express his opinion: "The Eight-Nation Alliance invaded the capital, and these are all criminals without exception-"

"We have now joined forces with the Soviet Union, Britain, France, and the United States to drive the Japanese away, but these cooperating forces may turn their weapons against us in the future."

Jiang Cheng nodded repeatedly in response: "The world's structure has not changed much. The strong have always been respected, and the truth is under the cannon——"

"Think about it, all the difficulties and problems we have today...didn't they all start with the arms embargo on China?"

"If we don't do everything we can to develop our own weapons research and development system, what will we use to fight against foreigners in the future if there is a major war?"

"Then wouldn't it be that the brothers on the battlefield who sacrificed their lives for the relatively peaceful environment we have today all died in vain?"

Silence fell.

Jiang Cheng knocked on the table to focus everyone's attention: "Okay, I've said enough for this occasion--"

"Brothers, the future of Jilin... even the entire Northeast and even China, is in your hands!"

"We are not kidding. If we don't develop in a few years, the Japanese will definitely come back!"

…………

The agenda of the meeting soon turned to the path of collective development due to Jiang Cheng's passionate speech.

The technicians quickly put aside their bickering and immediately turned to researching the fastest, most stable and feasible way to "move".

Jiang Cheng smiled and continued to sit down. However, before he could take out his cigarette and light it, Han Ming came running back. (End of this chapter)
