Chapter 71 Chen Xiao's Watch and Suit
The selection of special forces is very fierce, whether it is physical fitness, shooting after long-distance raids, memory, learning ability, or tenacious endurance.
It will take a few days to complete these selections.
Chen Xiao didn't care about all these. After several days of hard work, he was finally about to complete the assembly of his second precision machine tool.
This is a grinder. I took people to rob so many trains and finally found all the materials to make this thing.
Little did he know how big a stir the things he asked the monk to deliver would cause when they arrived at the headquarters.
"I looked at the map and found the nearest open-pit gold mine. It's in this canyon, less than 30 kilometers away from here. It's rarely visited. We can immediately send someone who knows about mining to verify its authenticity."
When the items arrived at the headquarters, their authenticity had to be verified before deciding whether to send them to Yan'an . After all, there were a lot of fake items these days.
The boss took the letter and information written by technician Feng Lin and said, “Everyone has read the letter written by technician Feng Lin.
This Chen Xiao knows a lot!
Not only does he know how to lead troops, he also knows how to manufacture firearms and can design new guns!
"Everyone has tried out the two new submachine guns that Zhao Gang sent. What do you think?"
The division commander smiled and said, "The gun is very good! It is very accurate within 100 meters, and it can also be accurate within 200 meters beyond 100 meters.
It's this rain of bullets pouring out, we can't afford to waste it!"
The brigade commander also laughed: "I know you will be reluctant to spend these bullets, so I sent you this mineral map!"
The chief of staff nodded in agreement: "It seems that you have all noticed. I see that this mineral map is not from the Japanese surveying team. It was actually brought out by this Chen Xiao, Principal Chen. He just didn't want us to get suspicious, so he simply copied some Japanese characters on it."
Those present were all heroes who had fought in battles for many years. After thinking about the past and the present, they could guess it almost exactly.
The boss snorted: "This Chen Xiao is very capable, but also very mysterious!
From the potatoes that produce 10,000 kilograms a year, which can keep people from going hungry after promotion, to the "Barefoot Doctor Manual" that is being verified these days, I think the verification is almost complete.
I have read the report. This "Barefoot Doctor's Manual" covers more than 80% of the common diseases among the people today, and effective treatments can be provided based on the prescriptions in it!
In fact, I think you have all guessed it. He gave this thing to Tian Xiaoyu because he knew that we would definitely get this notebook from Tian Xiaoyu.
He used a roundabout way to hand these good things, which benefit the people, over to us.”
The commander nodded and said, "That's right! We feed the people with high-yield potatoes and treat their diseases with the notes in the Barefoot Doctor's Manual.
This is to start from the people's livelihood, in order to benefit the people. This person has great ability and ambition, but he is unwilling to join the Eighth Route Army. This is a problem!"
The Chief of Staff took Feng Lin’s letter and said: “From what Feng Lin said in the letter, when we were chatting.
He said that 39 years ago, Germany had 1.7 million machine tools, the United States had more than 900,000, Britain and France had more than 700,000 and more than 500,000 respectively.
Even in Japan, there are 50,000 machine tools used in military factories and 170,000 in civilian use.
In our country, apart from the tens of thousands of machine tools in the three northeastern provinces of the puppet state of Manchukuo that had fallen into the hands of Japan, the remaining machine tools totaled no more than 10,000!
With such industrial capacity, how could it not be hit?
So, he is now starting to work on machine tools, and the letter says that he has already successfully made one. Is this an attempt to catch up with the great powers in industry?
He also told Feng Lin that once a machine tool was developed and the group of people who went to practice using it had learned how to use it, they could send the machine tools and the people to Yan'an and send another group of people to learn how to use it.
Boss, this is a great talent!
You can’t let him get away, especially now that after developing machine tools, people are worried about not having enough materials, so they mark out all the mineral resources.”
The brigade commander pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "I have been with him for a few days and talked a lot. I may have guessed some of the reasons why he was unwilling to join the Eighth Route Army.
His roots are not in the country, perhaps they have always been in Europe. When he came back, in addition to potatoes, he also brought back the "Barefoot Doctor's Manual", as well as industrial technology, mineral resource distribution, and so on.
These things cannot be mastered by one person. There must be an organization behind him. He said it was a research institute.
It’s called Zhihu Research Institute, so his military skills, industrial skills, and people’s livelihood skills all have their origins.
But he has no roots in the country, so he can come back and bring these things back to serve the country, but he is unwilling to settle down here.
So he didn't go to Chongqing, nor did he go to Yan'an. He just hung around our front line, giving us things but not wanting us to get too close.
I had a drink with him once and he was feeling slightly world-weary.
I asked him if he had a family, and he said he didn't want to be too involved in this world so that he wouldn't be reluctant to leave when the time came.
What he wants most now is to see his parents again, but his parents are no longer in this world."
Everyone knows that the brigade commander is very good at judging people, and this is consistent with the opinion reported by Staff Officer Li when he went to see him.
He has a world-weary attitude, great talent, and a desire to serve his country, but he has no foothold.
Suddenly, the chief of staff interrupted, "Does Tian Xiaoyu from the headquarters hospital have an engagement with Chen Xiao?"
An intelligence officer stood up and reported: "We sent someone to contact Tian Xiaoyu and secretly learned about her situation.
She ran away from her marriage. She said her father was going to Shanghai to meet the son of an old friend and help her arrange a marriage.
Her father Tian Moxuan did go to Shanghai when Chen Xiao just returned to China, but it was not found out whether the two met.
However, it seems that Tian Xiaoyu is still very satisfied with Chen Xiao, who may be her fiancé.
in addition,
We got back the watch, suit, and leather shoes that Chen Xiao pawned!
The material is very special, soft and breathable. I have never seen such clothing material before. Even some upper-class foreigners wear clothes made of materials that are far superior to this one.
Therefore, after analysis, it is believed that Chen Xiao’s origin is very high-end and his identity is not ordinary!
Therefore, after analyzing Chen Xiao's statement, the Intelligence Department still agreed with his statement.
A Chinese researcher who was born in Europe and was very knowledgeable , fled Europe, which led to the sacrifice of the entire institute. His parents were probably among the victims, so he felt disgusted with the world.
He was reluctant to join the Eighth Route Army and was unwilling to go south to Chongqing, so he just lingered on the front line fighting the Japanese army.
According to the assessment of the Intelligence Department, once the war with Japan is over and the Japanese devils are defeated, if his mental state has not recovered, he may really become disgusted with the world. "
The room was silent for a long time, and then the boss snorted: "These literati just like to be sad about the passing of time!"
The Chief of Staff said at this time: "Actually, I have a way!"
