Shi Daling has always appeared as a tough and unyielding image. With Shi Daling's character, he did not allow peace with the enemy without his own victory. Everything should be discussed after winning. In order to win this conflict with the Japanese, Shi Daling considered all-round alliance forces. The only one who could help him in the Far East was the Anti-Japanese United League under the leadership of **. However, if the Anti-Japanese United League really cooperated with Zhukov's actions, such a big movement would definitely be known to the international community, especially the Chinese National Government Lao Chiang Kai-shek. In time, if he acted together, sooner or later, Lao Chiang will know that this team was back from S1. I want Lao Chiang to not believe that he did not support China***? It is unlikely.

When he signed the Sino-Soviet Treaty of Non-aggression with Chiang Kai-shek in 1937, he promised not to support Yan'an materially, and all assistance would be handed over to the National Government. Of course, the purpose was also very obvious. He hoped that Chiang Kai-shek could drag the Japanese to death in China and reduce the Japanese threat to him, so he agreed to Chiang Kai-shek's request.

The two sides have had pleasant cooperation and dirty cooperation over the past few years, especially when he attacked Finland and annexed the Three Baltic Kingdoms, Chiang Kai-shek once spitted at him behind Britain and the United States, which made him very unhappy. However, the relationship between the two sides has improved significantly recently. The key is that Chiang Kai-shek agreed to send laborers to S1 to solve the problem of serious shortage of labor in the Far East, which made him feel very comfortable. The bald man is not useless and it is not easy to offend him.

Mao zd's suggestion made Shi Daling's eyes lit up, well! This is better! Chinese comrades should not have false names and ask for substantive things. They allow the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces to participate in the war in the name of the S1 Foreign Volunteer Army. This way, as Chiang Kai-shek explained, I did not support ** supplies, I just armed my own foreign corps. Although the main force of this foreign corps is Chinese, there are also some Koreans, Manchus and some small ethnic soldiers from the Far East, which is reasonable.

Shi Daling called his secretary in and handed him two signed notes and ordered: "Comrade Sirikova, give this telegram to Ivanov in the Far East, tell him to follow the instructions, and then give the second to Maozd of Yan'an."

Sirikova took the note and hurriedly retreated without expression. He knew Shi Daling's character and the current situation in the Far East. He immediately judged what Shi Daling meant by asking Ivanov to allocate ammunition to the Chinese Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, which meant that a war involving the Chinese Anti-Japanese Allied Forces was about to begin.

More than ten minutes later, the radio waves flew to Yan'an. After receiving a telegram from Moscow, the translator of the Yan'an Central Confidential Bureau quickly translated the content. After reading it once, he was overjoyed and couldn't wait to hand it over to Ran Lu, the director of the Second Department.

Ran Lu ran all the way to Mao ZD's cave, but was told that the chairman was not there, so the chairman went to the Ansai Iron Factory.

Mao zd had a rare good night's sleep last night. He woke up in the morning and saw He Guozhen, the director sent by Ansai Steel Factory to report the good news early in the morning. He Guozhen's joyful report said that the steel factory had become a steel factory with the same name and truth. In the past, he could only make iron. Now, not only steel has been made, but yesterday, a specially renovated converter has made "cannon steel". The great news is great! The chairman should know it as soon as possible.

"You little kid, why are you so happy to make a cannon steel?" Mao Zd asked curiously at He Guozhen, who was dancing in front of him. He Guozhen is from Jinggangshan, an old man who has been following Mao Zd for a long time. Although he is thirty years old this year, in Mao Zd's eyes, he is still the doll who was not even taller than guns when he first joined the Red Army.

He Guozhen gestured and said, after making several moves, he excitedly imitated the roar of the cannon, "It's the cannon of wu...boom..., we have made steel that cannon that can be used as a cannon barrel! We can also produce small-caliber mountain cannons below 75mm and infantry cannons. In the future, our soldiers will no longer have to be pressed by the Japanese cannons. I'm happy! I came early in the morning to tell the Chairman that he was here."

Qualified steel has always been the pursuit of the entire Yan'an Bing Industry group. In order to find steel, they had to go everywhere to the enemy-occupied areas to collect them from the Jiangxi management area. They risked their lives to cross the blockade lines to bring a small amount of raw materials that could make weapons. It can be said that every section of the rail transported from the Zhengtai line was stained with the blood of martyrs. Ansai's Mauser production line often stopped for a short time due to breaking materials.

Ma Qian'an brought back a large number of machine tools and steelmaking equipment from the south, quickly elevating Yan'an's "heavy industry" level to a world-class level. Although the scale is not large, the foundation has been laid. Among the 100,000 young students who came to Yan'an who studied engineering science were highly valued. The heroes finally had a place to use their skills. The participation of higher-quality students has brought Yan'an's industry to a new level. Although this group of people has been in office for less than a month, they have burst out huge energy to support Yan'an's industrial system and the framework has begun to be formed.

80% of Yan'an's fiscal revenue was invested in military production, which is a distorted proportion to outsiders, but in the eyes of all soldiers, it is undoubtedly an extremely wise decision, and the Central Military Commission represented by Mao ZD was made.

Due to Chen Jiashen's selfless aid and the hot sale of penicillin drugs, the finances of Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia have greatly improved. Not only has the corresponding improvement of the living standards of the military and civilians in the region been correspondingly improved, but they can also often withdraw a small amount of money to support the Taihang Mountains and Luliang Mountain bases. If it were not for the disaster impact this year, the situation would be better. According to the current situation, it is urgent to develop military production and is the top priority. During the harsh conditions last year, Mao Zd opposed the demands put forward by some people to build heavy industry, propose large salt industry plans, large military industry plans and other things. He believes that it is unrealistic and cannot be adopted. Exhibition is not a risky and unfounded exhibition. The party's line is the correct exhibition route. On the one hand, it must oppose the old conservative view, and on the other hand, it must oppose empty and unrealistic plans. This is the struggle of the party on the two fronts in fiscal and economic work.

But just one month ago, with the arrival of thousands of machine tools of large and small size, with the arrival of Chen Jiashen's huge sum of 10,000 US dollars (about 30,000 taels of gold), and with the information that Penicillin's surplus of more than 60,000 silver dollars in half a year, Mao Zd felt "wealthy and powerful" for the first time. At this time, the time for the development of military industry has arrived. If you don't have the money to carry military production, would you hug it and sleep? Should you build the Summer Palace? Do you want our soldiers to take a dart and put a grenade on your waist and go to the battlefield? Isn't that better than the late Qing Dynasty? So a large amount of manpower was mobilized to start mining, and a large amount of funds were invested in the arsenal, and military production expanded like a blow-off.

Cannon steel represents the essence of the steel industry. This steel requires tensile resistance, compression resistance, high temperature resistance and fatigue resistance. It is a dream for steel mills to produce this kind of steel. It is no wonder that He Guozhen is about to be crazy happily.

Now, 4 furnaces are used to make ordinary steel and 1 furnace cannon steel. On average, 40 tons of steel can be produced per day. This is an amazing number, with an annual output of 14,000 tons, which means a huge progress for the poor and unhealthy border areas.

"Oh! OK! OK!" After listening to He Guozhen's report, Mao zd looked at his happy face and couldn't help but be infected by him. He snatched the cigarette in his hand and asked happily: "Little kid, I want to go to your place to see you. Are you okay?"

OK! What's wrong with this? He Guozhen didn't expect that the Chairman would come and go and see it. This was something he wanted, so he immediately started to arrange it.

When Ma Qian'an came back, he brought back two Ford cars to Yan'an. This was Chen Jiashen's intention. Originally, Chen Jiashen asked Ma Qian'an to bring more cars, but Ma Qian'an refused. How tight the transportation capacity is, he could transport one more car, and the industry was unwilling to transport one more car.

Soon, Li Yinqiao, the chairman's guard captain, borrowed the car from a unit not far away and drove Mao ZD and He Guozhen to the north.

Passing by Zhu D's office, Mao Zd called him excitedly, asking him, the commander-in-chief to share the joy of the steel mill employees.

After galloping for dozens of kilometers, we arrived at Ansai Steel Plant. Looking at the arsenal, there was a tense and busy atmosphere within the arsenal. The number and area of ​​the factory increased greatly, and the number and area of ​​the factory were also greatly increased. Several nearby valleys and ravines were also signs of large-scale construction. In order to prevent enemy aircraft bombing, important equipment was set up relatively scattered. The most important steel furnaces and iron furnaces were placed in positions where enemy aircraft were not easy to appear and attack and were camouflaged.

The arrival of Mao ZD and his group did not attract the attention of most workers and technicians. All they noticed was the people near the steelmaking furnace that was said to have produced cannon steel.

Several famous military production personnel in Yan'an have long been here to see it. They happened to get together today. Since Ma Qian'an left and the industrial base preparation committee has been disbanded, there has not been so many military industries gathered together.

Liu Ding, the Minister of Military Industry of the Eighth Route Army, the Director of the Tea House Arsenal, the Chief of the Gunpowder Factory, the Deputy Chief Engineer of the Steel Factory, Cui Ximing, the former Anti-Japanese United Nations, and other groups of people gathered around a tall and thin man with dark faces and gold-rimmed glasses, constantly asking about something.

The golden glasses spoke in a bad Peking Mandarin, and kept pushing the glasses that slid onto the bridge of their noses, slowly and patiently explaining to everyone what they were saying. This is Liang Sirui, whose English name is Jerry, is a steelmaking expert collected from Chen's company from the United States, a Chinese-American. Strictly speaking, he is a technical expert hired by Chen's company for a high salary. However, since he came to Yan'an with Ma Qian'an, he has been deeply infected by the crowd here, and has become a group of Yan'an people who are eager to learn from him and have to work day and night. In a short period of time, he has trained several high-quality engineers.

He Guozhen had already quietly told Mao Zd, which made him know the origin of Liang Sirui. Mao Zd was very happy and praised Liang Sirui. At the end, Mao Zd still asked enthusiastically: "Mr. Liang, if you are an American, then you are an American? You Americans have a very high level of steelmaking. I hope you can attract more engineers to help us, help us to carry out production, and fight against Japanese invaders. I heard that your president is a very just president!"

The approachable Mao Zd quickly won Liang Sirui's heart, and he promised to send a telegram to his colleagues in the United States and asked them to come too. Finally, Liang Sirui mentioned, "Actually, Mr. Mao, you can make high-quality steel so quickly. Your Mr. Ma Qian'an's idea has inspired me. He reminded me that instead of building a large-flow blower to supply oxygen to the furnace, it is better to first raise pure oxygen and apply it directly to the furnace. After I came to Yan'an, I tried it like this, it was really useful. The quality of the molten steel was raised at once. You are also full of talents!"

Liang Sirui's words evoked Mao ZD's memories of Ma Qian'an. "Xiao Ma has such a story?" This American steelmaking expert praised him. This kid is not good, where did he come up with such a wonderful idea? It would be great to stay in Nanyang, but this kid couldn't let go of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces. I don't know how he is now.
