*********************************************************************

The winter counterattack did not change much in the initial stages and in history. After all, each army and unit have its own habitual fighting styles. Although the government has specific instructions, it is not easy to change.

However, as the counterattack continued, the army found that although the training had been carried out, its equipment and combat power were still not as good as the Japanese army. The larger the scale of the battle, the more troops the Japanese army participated in the battle, and the greater the damage caused by the heavy weapons it accompanied, the greater the damage caused by the troops, and the greater the results were therefore severe, but the results were not significant.

The main battle between the National Army and the Japanese army is often due to the fact that the victory is less and the defeat is more. The command level and coordination are important reasons. The gap between heavy weapons is also a defect that is difficult to make up. However, if it is a division and regiment-level battle, light weapons are mainly used, so the gap is not particularly obvious.

Therefore, the armies began to pay attention to the suggestions and strategies of the government, and continued to carry out turns to fight in turn, and targeting the enemy's targets into weak points at the wing, brigade and squadron levels. Such a transformation made the winter counterattack last longer, the battle scale was small but the number of times, which also achieved most of Yang Tianfeng's goal.

Winter training, large training, large competition, large-scale training of technical troops, large-scale expansion, large-scale production of weapons and equipment, large-scale construction of factories, and large-scale construction of various facilities...

Although there was no major war, the Yongcheng base area was extremely hot and busy this winter, and the number of troops, equipment and combat power of the army were constantly increasing. However, this was not something outsiders could know, and the most eye-catching thing was the blooming of civilian factories and enterprises.

Relying on the machinery and equipment produced by military factories, as well as the glycerin, rubber, dye and other products produced by coal chemical plants, toothpaste, tooth powder factory, rubber shoes, raincoat factory, weaving factory, garment factory, cigarette factory, enamel factory, soap factory, paper factory, etc., under the encouragement of preferential policies and free technical support, it was established and built in the base area at an astonishing speed.

Although these factories were newly built, and their production capacity and product quality were not satisfactory, these could be improved. Based on the scarcity of materials at that time, the prospects for development were also bright.

The raw material demand for civil factories has greatly promoted the development of the coal chemical industry. At the suggestion of Yang Tianfeng, the coal chemical factory sent technicians to support and help several civil factories build simple coal chemical production, mainly producing primary products such as coke, tar, kerosene, glycerin, and thyrosulfonic acid.

Give benefits to the people, so as to make the most of the full use of private capital and manpower, achieve mutual promotion of upstream and downstream industries, increase fiscal and taxation and people's income, enrich civilian use, and resist the economic aggression and blockade of the Japanese and puppet...

In fact, it was not only Yang Tianfeng who focused on economic development. The government in the rear and the Eighth Route Army in the occupied areas also realized that the economy was the pillar supporting the military. However, one policy method was wrong, bureaucracy and corruption ruined most of its efforts; the other was that there was no capital and technology, and there was a lack of bases that could provide a stable and safe development environment.

Of course, Yang Tianfeng also has his own limits for concessions to the people, and the coal chemical finishing and pharmaceutical industry are firmly controlled by him. Antimalarial drug chloroquine, anti-infective drug sulfonamide, black death special drug anti-anti-sodium gluconate, and new anti-tuberculosis drug isoniazid, some are transitioning from laboratory production to large-scale production, while others are already able to produce in batches, which is huge profits. Not only can they get good sales in China, but also abroad.

If you make huge profits, make huge profits. Yang Tianfeng needs money to develop military industry, produce weapons, and expand the army, and never regards himself as a savior. Of course, the so-called huge profits are compared with the production cost of drugs. If compared with imported drugs, it is still much worse.

The government work in western Henan was also going smoothly. Sun Tongxuan and Li Tie, who were stationed in the local area, gave Yang Tianfeng substantial support with guns.

The reason is very simple. As soldiers, they are not qualified to interfere in government affairs, so giving Yang Tianfeng is the best choice. According to Yang Tianfeng's promise and guarantee, they will receive supplementary food and salary from local financial resources. The pensions for disabled and fallen soldiers will be the same as those for the New Seventh Army, and there will be supplementary reinforcement in weapons and equipment.

As for the miscellaneous army, since the government does not pay attention to it, it can only rely on itself to improve its treatment. Yang Tianfeng's New Seventh Army should also be miscellaneous, but it depends on the fact that they are doing well, their weapons, equipment, food and supplies are not worse than the Central Army, and they are even better. The number of the New Seventh Army has far exceeded the organization, and Yang Tianfeng can afford it. They are no more than one person, but they are still living tightly.

Relying on military achievements to make the government look at each other, this is of course a good idea, but if the food and salary are not sufficient and the weapons are not good, what can we use to gain military merit?

Sun Tongxuan had long seen it clearly that once she cooperated with Yang Tianfeng, her army's equipment level would be improved. As long as she worked hard and was not scheming, Yang Tianfeng was still very generous. So far, the number of machine guns in the Third Army has only increased by nearly twice as many as before, let alone other weapons.

Ma Biao of the Eighth Division was the second to realize this. From poor equipment to basically being equal to other countries' * troops, how long did it take? As for the damage to the war, fighting the Japanese was a war for the country. Isn't that what should be done?

Li Tiejun came relatively late, but he also obtained a batch of weapons and ammunition provided by Yang Tianfeng before the winter counterattack. Furthermore, he was under the command of Sun Tongxuan. He had a good impression of Yang Tianfeng and was more accustomed to following orders.

Yang Tianfeng solved a major problem by tackling the garrison and taking over government affairs, and time entered 1940 in the midst of the continuous counterattacks of the National Army in various places.

…………………

New Year's Day passed very dullly. People at that time did not pay attention to this Gregorian festival. There was no atmosphere, and Yang Tianfeng couldn't cheer up, and he didn't even come back home.

Telegrams and telephones have already connected several major counties and important places in the Henan-Anhui border area. Whether it is military coordination and command, government requests and reports, as well as technical guidance for military industry, coal chemical industries, etc., they are very convenient and fast. Yang Tianfeng no longer needs to run around and travel too much. The most important thing is the training and maturity of military officers, which reduces Yang Tianfeng's great work pressure.

Under such conditions, Yang Tianfeng had the conditions to live in Haozhou for a long time and spend time with his family. But he still spent most of his time on the military industry in the Mangdang mountains. In addition to the development of ash machines and the training of pilots, he was also carrying out an epoch-making research and development that would sound the clarion call of the microelectronics revolution.

The invention of transistors can be traced back to 1929, when engineer Lilianfeld had obtained a patent for a transistor. However, due to the technical level at that time, the materials used to make such devices did not reach sufficient purity, which made this transistor impossible to manufacture.

It was not until December 1947 that the world's earliest practical semiconductor device was finally released at Bell Labs. During the first experiment, it could amplify the audio signal by a hundred times, but its appearance was shorter than a matchstick, but thicker.

Based on the current manufacturing process, Yang Tianfeng does not expect to manufacture such a small semiconductor device, but he hopes to use relatively small electronic devices with low power consumption instead of large-sized and large-power consumption electronic tubes.

If this research and development is successful, first of all, the military's communication equipment can be miniaturized, portable, and improve communication distance and quality; secondly, it is possible to develop radio near-fighting fuzes.

Haha, in fact, radio near-fighting fuze is not needed by Yang Tianfeng. What he most wants to develop is infrared night vision instruments and radio navigation equipment.

Due to the Japanese air superiority, the New Seventh Army basically mobilized and launched attacks at night during several battles. Yang Tianfeng believed that this tradition of night attacks should be inherited and carried forward to offset the Japanese army's firepower advantage under the bright-eyed state to the greatest extent.

Similar to the emergence in late World War II, the German vampire individual night vision instrument and the American t120 night vision instrument are both active night vision instruments, with relatively simple structural principles, and the disadvantage is that they cannot leave infrared radiation, and the irradiated light may be discovered by the other party's observation instruments to expose their location.

To deal with the Japanese devils, the disadvantages of active night vision devices are negligible and do not exist. In fact, the problem that Yang Tianfeng wants to solve is the huge power consumption of infrared night vision devices. It is one way to produce and manufacture large-capacity batteries; using transistors, it is easier to solve the difficulties.

As for radio navigation, as early as 1911, someone studied the directionality of radio waves. During World War I, the German Zeppelin used the original ground radio direction finding navigation when it bombed London. The airborne radio direction finding instrument was only practically applied in the 1920s and developed rapidly during World War II.

The first offensive navigation system to appear was the German knickebein (meaning "bending leg") positioning system. Later, Germany developed the x-gera:t system and the one-eyed-y-gera:t system. During the Luftwaffe's "Moonlight Sonata" operation, cities such as Coventry in the UK were destroyed bombed.

Britain, which suffered from bombing, was not willing to fall behind. It successively developed the Gee system, Ob oboe system, and H2S terrain radar. Through the night bombing of thousands of aircraft, Cologne turned into rubble and scorched earth.

If there is no interference, the accuracy of these navigation systems was considered a correction at that time. It is recorded that the error at 180 miles was only eighteen meters, which is 1% of the distance.

Yang Tianfeng had long imagined that when the time was right, he would use ultra-light* greywork and old-fashioned biplane to bomb the Japanese airport at night, thereby destroying the Japanese's air superiority in locally to carry out large-scale ground battles.

The so-called time is ripe, which naturally includes a navigation system, which can indicate the correct direction of the aircraft and arrive at the Japanese airport at night; after the bombing is completed, it can guide the aircraft home safely.

It seems that the task is heavy and arduous, but Yang Tianfeng's scheduled counterattack time was after 1942. When the Japanese were involved in two battles and were passive on the southern battlefield, it would be the time when he punched hard and hit the Japanese.

In this way, everything Yang Tianfeng is doing now is laying the groundwork and preparing. Because he believes that the saying "Success is left to those who are prepared."

Abandoning the expensive and difficult to find germanium, Yang Tianfeng started with silicon, which is widely present in nature, and began the process of manufacturing semiconductor transistors.

During World War II, high-frequency crystal detectors for radars were started to be made with silicon. However, the silicon used was very purity and was not single crystal, so the effect was not very ideal. It was not until the first silicon transistor was made in 1950 that people's interest in preparing high-quality silicon single crystals was increased, and they began to invent and create.

For Yang Tianfeng, the method of preparing high-quality silicon single crystals is not a problem. He wants to use the hydrogen reduction trichlorosil method that can be produced in later generations. Although due to technical conditions, silicon epitaxial growth single crystal technology cannot be used for the time being, the purity of the silicon produced has met the conditions for the production of general transistors, rectifiers, thyristors and other components.

Vehicleizers, reduction furnaces, temperature control systems, distillation towers, precision analyzers, glass processing machines and other machinery and equipment are purchased from outside or made by themselves. Using the construction experience of arsenals, precision machine tools and coal chemical plants, Yang Tianfeng hired several experts from the Central Electrical Equipment Factory and stuffed them in some intellectual youth with excellent quality and academic performance that he chose, and finally built an electronic laboratory.

Such a stall was built, but Yang Tianfeng conservatively estimated that it would take one year to achieve results on transistors. Of course, the Central Electrical Equipment Factory has obtained the advanced technology provided by Yang Tianfeng with the help of vacuum tube manufacturing equipment and technology introduced from the United States before, but the production and manufacturing of electronic tubes has made significant progress.

Considering the development cycle of transistors and the inability to replace electronic tubes in full, Yang Tianfeng had long spent a lot of money to entrust the military bureau to purchase vacuum tube manufacturing equipment from the United States through the Resources Committee of the State Government. According to the latest news, this equipment has been shipped to Yangon, Myanmar.

Yang Tianfeng had to go through the relationship to clear the situation. Otherwise, the thousands of tons of materials piled up in Yangon to be transported, relying on the transportation capacity of the government and the various dark stories of transporting goods at that time, it was estimated that the Japanese would attack Myanmar, and the machinery and equipment he wanted had not yet been shipped!

There is still a dark story about transporting goods? Others don’t know, but Yang Tianfeng knows it in his heart. I don’t know how many noble officials and nobles I have been involved in, and I don’t know how many of them have fed their private bags.

When the country is in crisis, there are people who work hard and sacrifice, but there are always things that are resentful and helpless. In peacetime, people may still be able to endure it, after all, they are not able to survive without rising; but when foreign invasion and wars are raging, internal problems will amplify, people's consciousness will also awaken, and dissatisfaction and resentment will be even more amplified.

Fortunately, the Yongcheng base area was stolen from nothing and was stolen from the hands of the Japanese and puppet troops. It was like starting a new stove, with a simple environment and a small range. In addition, Yang Tianfeng has always attached great importance to it, and has fundamentally transformed it and casts a strict spell, so he did not fall into the same situation as other national-controlled areas.
