    Yang Yuting was also very excited.  Zhang Hanqing's Marshal's Office currently has six offices, and three of them, Chen Bui, Zhu Guangmu, and Gao Jiyi, are members of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, and their standards are already very high.  Now that I am acting as a division chief, does this mean that I have been included in the echelon of young marshals?  At least in terms of rank, he had already stepped into Zhang Hanqing's inner circle.

    Zhang Zuolin was also relieved. He knew that since Tang Yulin was shot to death by Xiao Liuzi, the awe of Tang Yulin among the people in the department had risen to a certain level.  Now that he has the majesty of a superior, he naturally does not need to mingle with his original partners. Appropriate respect is also appropriate, but it is not good to create barriers because of this.  Especially Yang Yuting, who is capable and responsible, but if he doesn't use it well, it will have a bad impact if he leaves again or fails to work hard.

    It just so happened that Yang Yuting¡¯s incident gave him a turning point.  It is also a kind of betrayal. If you arrange it well, it will send a signal: He, Lao Zhang, still values ??friendship and humanity.

    Zhang Hanqing¡¯s arrangement is neither too high nor too low, just right.  At a large level, this is a service that is on par with the Army, with a distinguished status; at a small level, it is just a division chief, with little influence, and needs the support of Zhang Hanqing and himself to be effective.

    He secretly praised in his heart: "This pie is painted well. I haven't seen you for a few days, and Xiao Liuzi has made progress again." However, he said: "I fully support the development of the Air Force. It requires people to give people and money.  If you give us money, we must get it done." In fact, so far, his understanding of the role of the air force is limited to using aircraft for reconnaissance.

    "Zhang Hanqing didn't expect his father, a big boss, to pay attention to the Air Force, as long as it didn't cause trouble, it was just what he wanted now.  So I just pretended to praise him and strike while the iron was hot: "With the words of the commander-in-chief, I believe that the construction of the Air Force will definitely reach a higher level. I don't think there is any need for an agent for the General Counsel. He will take office today. When Brother Feng comes back, he will establish the first  Let¡¯s build an air force and make him the chief of staff.¡±

    Zhang Zuolin could not help but nod: "If this works, let's do it!" He had a carefree temperament, but he was also vigorous and resolute in his work. He signed the letter of appointment immediately after returning his signature.

    During the Beiyang government period, military positions above lieutenant general basically corresponded to special civilian appointments, those above colonel corresponded to brief appointments, lieutenant general and major corresponded to recommended appointments, and lieutenant officers corresponded to appointed appointments.  Appointments of special and short-term officials must be submitted to the President with the seal of the Ministry and be announced at any time.

    Yang Yuting was originally a lieutenant general. This kind of change of position does not need to go through the Central Committee at all - how many things does Lao Zhang do now without going through the Central Committee!  But even if it goes through the Central | Central Committee, Lao Zhang completely believes that there will be no obstacles at all - will the short-term President Xu Shichang become impatient and ask for trouble?

    After Yang Yuting officially took office, Zhang Hanqing and Jiang Baili worked with him to formulate the air force's plan, mainly in terms of ordnance.

    The air force can¡¯t live without planes, right?  Communication systems, command systems, targeting systems, aviation bombs, aviation machine guns, and anti-aircraft artillery all need to be considered; the Air Force's establishment, training, and combat registers are all new things and need to be written from scratch; the existing two  A training machine is not enough, it needs to be purchased, and subsequent maintenance, maintenance, and repairs involve many departments.

    Yang Yuting also has a big head.

    ¡°However, he is a capable person and has considerable perseverance. His characteristic is to make progress despite difficulties.  He had been the supervisor of Fengtian Arsenal for a long time, so he had a wide network of contacts and many methods, and he quickly figured it out.  Of course, as the director of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, which is linked to the military industry system, Jiang Baili has also put in a lot of effort.  In his opinion, the Marshal has provided an opportunity for Fengjun to become a world-class army. Whether they can seize it or not is the responsibility of those who handle it.

    However, Zhang Hanqing knew that the establishment of the Air Force would not be an overnight effort, and there were more important ideas to be realized at the moment. He pulled Jiang Baili over and said mysteriously: "Brother Fang Zhen, let Director Yang of the Air Force do it slowly. You have more important things to do right now."  matter."

    It should be said that he had always called him Uncle Jiang Shishu, but after the old Jiang returned to the throne, everyone became colleagues, and Jiang Baili refused to be called the elder.  However, Zhang Hanqing called him "brother", while Zhang Zuolin called him "brother", which was a bit nondescript.  However, Jiang Baili was very open-minded: "Then let's each call each other the same."

    As time goes by, you will get used to it.  The two are brothers, but they also feel very close.

    Jiang Baili knew that Zhang Hanqing had another strange idea, but he was very happy.  Every suggestion made by this young marshal is refreshing, but it makes sense when you think about it deeply. It also gives him a lot of inspiration for a military leader. He often laments that with the young marshal around, he realizes that he has too much ambition and too little ability.

    But Zhang Hanqing is more ambitious than him, okay?  He is a typical "Gao Zhan" who just comes up with ideas and makes the people below him run into trouble for specific things."Attention"¡ª¡ªIn fact, I don't blame him. In addition to having the advantage of being a latecomer, when it comes to putting ideas into practice, he is not far behind Jiang Baili and Yang Yuting.

    "I have an idea, which is to use the technology used to make cars and tractor tracks to make tanks. Do you think it will work?"

    Tanks were born in World War I, dominated in World War II, and have been the dominant force on land battlefields since World War II. They are called the "King of Land Warfare."  It is the most basic type of all armored vehicles. It is a tracked armored combat vehicle with powerful direct firepower, high cross-country mobility and strong armor protection capabilities. It is the main assault weapon in ground combat and the basic equipment of armored troops.

    The advent and use of tanks began a new period of army mechanization, which had a major impact on army combat operations and has extremely far-reaching historical significance in the military: it can undertake various combat tasks in complex terrain and all-weather conditions, mainly  It is used to fight enemy tanks and other armored vehicles, and can also suppress and destroy anti-tank weapons and other artillery weapons, destroy field fortifications, and annihilate effective forces.  The development of tanks has a decisive influence on the development of other armored vehicles. Zhang Hanqing is clear about its value.  And with enough power, there is no need to worry about not being able to build this tank.

    Early tanks were still very primitive. Swinton, known as the "Father of Tanks", was a British Army colonel. He first proposed using crawler tractors with steel plates to resist machine gun fire. This was the idea of ??the earliest tanks.

    On January 16, 1916, the British improved tank "Mother" conducted its first driving test and successfully passed the simulated "battlefield obstacle course".  It reached a width of 2.24 meters across the trench and a height of 1.37 meters through the vertical wall. The test was successful.  Since then, the world's first truly practical tank was born. After being equipped with the British Army, it was officially named the Type 1 tank.

    During the same period, France also manufactured several types of tanks, the most noteworthy of which is the "Renault" ft-17 light tank.  It is the first tank in the world to be equipped with a 360-degree rotating turret, with a rear power compartment and a driver's seat in front of the body. Most modern tanks we see today follow this design.

    Zhang Hanqing managed to obtain several FT-17s through the relationship with German military adviser Colonel Max Bauer, mobilized experts from all walks of life, and secretly established a research team in Qinhuangdao code-named "Qinhuangdao 20th Mechanical Research Institute" to conduct research on the tanks.  Research.

    During World War I, there were a wide variety of tanks from various countries, and the equipment was also colorful.  Taking the UK as an example, there are not only various models equipped with one cannon and two to five machine guns, but there are also "male" and "female" ones.  Faced with the messy development path of tanks, Zhang Hanqing opposed all opinions and insisted that the tank be equipped with only one artillery and one machine gun. It was recommended that the tank should have a crew of four: commander, driver, gunner and loader, with the commander also serving as machine gunner.

    He believes that the mechanization of the army is the way forward for all countries in the future. For a country as big as China, one or two sophisticated but small quantities of weapons alone are not enough to maintain territorial sovereignty.  Taking into account China's national conditions, weapons that are low in price, easy to manufacture and maintain, and have upgrade potential for large-scale manufacturing are the best choices at present.  Tanks will be oriented toward the comprehensive development of mobility, protection, and firepower.

    So everyone focused their thoughts on how to improve mobility, enhance protection and maintenance, and use reliability.  Eventually, a standard model with a total combat weight of about 15 tons, a maximum traveling speed of 30 to 40 kilometers per hour, a maximum armor thickness of 60 to 70 mm, and a gun with a caliber of 57 mm was gradually formed.  It's not that Zhang Hanqing doesn't want a large caliber, it's just that the Shenyang Arsenal can only build such a large caliber gun at this stage.

    Because the development started in 1920, Zhang Hanqing named it T-20 tank, which is the originator of China's standard tank.

    The army has tanks and cannons, the air force has planes, and the navy naturally has warships.  The first two are becoming reality, but an important factor restricting the development of the Chinese navy has already appeared in that era, and that is ship power.

    The reason why Zhang Hanqing spent a lot of money to establish the Marine Boiler Turbine Research Institute in Harbin was to prepare for a rainy day.  At present, China does not have the strength or need to build high-power steam engines for large ships of 10,000 tons, but the power facilities for civilian transport ships and small gunboats of dozens or hundreds of tons can be prepared.  With experience in maintaining the gunboats of the Kyrgyzstan-Heijiang Defense Fleet, Zhang Hanqing's order to the Aviation Police Department and Research Institute was to imitate coal-fired boilers of the same level at all costs.

    The Zhongxing Shipyard in Qinhuangdao has purchased a large number of machines, enough to manufacture ship hulls of several hundred tons.  When the technology matures, it may not be possible to build 10,000-ton battleships and heavy cruisers like the Japanese for a while, but the gunboat hull will always be fine, right?  Technology is being accumulated, and when it is needed, it will be like a ripe melon.

    Therefore, the "Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense" has given great support in the overall planning. All staff have invested considerable enthusiasm in the plan to have the opportunity to upgrade the equipment of the Chinese army. The complete industrial structure also allows talents from various industries to be put into use.  .  At this point, Zhang Hanqing completed the layout of military equipment, and the Fengtian military industry began to enter a stage of rapid development.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Appropriate enthusiasm and a complete industrial structure with various categories also give talents in various industries a place to use.  At this point, Zhang Hanqing completed the layout of military equipment, and the Fengtian military industry began to enter a stage of rapid development.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
