Chapter 1198: The Magnetron Has Arrived

Ivanov knew little about his new prefect Berekov, even if this was already his third "delivery". All he knew was that this person was a foreigner, and in April he became a Soviet citizen.

Whether this man really wants to be a Soviet, Ivanov does not know, he can only confirm one thing, this is a general who is good at fighting. Look at the construction of this guerrilla zone under his rule, they actually built a city in this swamp!

It was time to meet the mysterious general, and Ivanov was nervous again.

On the other hand, in the command of the army group, not only Yang Mingzhi, Yevlov and others were present, but also Salinchkin and Lyudbalev and others also arrived. In this way, not only the army personnel but also the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the guerrilla republics were present in the command.

Everyone is not waiting for Ivanov, but for this man, so many generals and officials are indeed waiting for him, which is really a great courtesy!

Escorted by soldiers, he walked through the residential area of the blacksmith village, where he was amazed by the houses hidden by large trees.

He couldn't help but sigh: "I can't believe that you have built a city in the forest!" There must be more than 20,000 people living here! ”

"It's already 60,000!" The young commissar in the blue hat proudly introduced, "Comrade Major, we are increasing the population here almost every day. Every time you fight, you can save a large number of civilians! Now the enemy is no longer able to defeat us head-on. ”

"So, all this is the credit of your army commander!"

"And the unity of the people! Of course, the correct path of development established for us by Comrade Commander! It is also his outstanding military command that has brought us to where we are today. ”

When this person said this, Ivanov was even more curious about Berekov, whom he had never met.

……

"That's it! This is it! Our Command, please come with me! ”

"Okay, I'll clean up the dust of my clothes first!" Ivanov stopped, he straightened his clothes, and his whole body was in good spirits. He had to clench the wooden box he was carrying, which was to be handed over to Commander Berekov personally!

He followed behind the young commissar and strode into the command of the group army.

Ivanov's sudden appearance attracted the eyes of everyone in the command. After all, this is a specially dressed man, the uniform of the Air Force pilot he wears is really unique, and in the entire partisan republic, he is the second person besides Podovich!

The scene was a little awkward for a while, but it was a brief report from the young political commissar that eased the atmosphere.

Resisting the pressure, Ivanov strode forward and walked up to the Tatar-faced general, wearing the Order of the Gold Star.

"Report to Comrade Commander of the Army! Air Force Major Pyotr Ilyich Ivanov reports to you! I am on the orders of the command of the Southwestern Front to carry out the task of air assistance to the guerrilla republics, and the current task is complete, please instruct! ”

His actions were really abrupt, after all, Yang Mingzhi and others did not know the details of this Ivanov. Judging by his epaulettes alone, he was indeed a major.

Yang Mingzhi replied with courtesy: "I'm glad that you landed successfully, Comrade Major!" I am the commander of the 63rd Army, Pyotr Ivanovich Berekov. After all, this is a formal military handover, and when he learned that this person was officially the commander of this air aid operation, many questions were immediately pushed into his throat.

It's just that Yang Mingzhi hasn't asked a question first, and Ivanov sonorously picked up the wooden box he had been carrying.

As a result, everyone's eyes gathered in this box, and Ivanov said in his somewhat hoarse voice: "Comrade Commander, this is the equipment you wanted!" ”

"It's a magnetron in the radar!?" Yang Mingzhi was a little surprised and lost his mind, and directly reached out to hold the wooden box.

"Yes! Comrade Commander! It's this device! In addition to that, there are two medals! ”

"And medals?! Is this again granted to me and the deputy commander? At this point, Yang Mingzhi inevitably fell into some self-absorption. He waved his hand and said, "We have indeed crippled the Romanian Sixth Army, which is very normal for us!" Could it be that because of our attack, our superiors will award us a new medal! I already have a Gold Star medal! ”

"Huh! Dear Berekov, don't be modest! Yevlov interjected with a smile, "I don't mind being awarded another Gold Star!"

At this time, Salinchkin, who was in a very good mood, also said: "In the two large-scale military operations we launched at the end of April and late May, you are the strategic planner and executor, and you have a reason to receive new honors. ”

Salinchkin's words carried a lot of weight, and at this point, Yang Mingzhi was in no hurry to open the box. It's not just about seeing the difference between the magnetron in this plane and the ones in later generations, it's also about witnessing what kind of medals are sent by the superiors!

Everyone came to a table, and after Ivanov sat down, he quickly opened the copper lock of the wooden box and slowly opened the box.

Yang Mingzhi couldn't wait to reach out and take out the ball of newspapers in the box. Consciously told him that the magnetron was wrapped in layers of newspapers, and they were far less important than those little things compared to those ammunition!

During World War II, a small magnetron was a black technology. When the waste paper of these Pravda newspapers was removed, a fist-sized thing was played with by Yang Mingzhi and applauded.

He couldn't help asking, "This is a magnetron?" Why is it so big?! ”

"This ...... Are you asking me? Ivanov asked.

"Nope! It's incredible, I thought it could be smaller! Maybe I'm still overestimating the level of technology in this era, and this device can't be made smaller. ”

At present, the United States has begun mass production of magnetrons, and the manufacturing cost of aviation early warning radar has also dropped rapidly. In the development of radar, the Soviet Union lagged behind the United States, but it was able to develop independently. What Yang Mingzhi has in his hand is made by the Soviet Union itself, this fist-sized magnetron, it is the emission source of high-energy microwaves!

Finally got this core component, and then look at this small wooden box, its small size really can't fit the oscilloscope. It seems that the higher authorities did not send the oscilloscope, maybe those instruments were damaged!

Ivanov went on to explain: "This device was disassembled from the radar car at the Severodonetsk airport. The radar vehicle has been destroyed by the German air raid, and almost all of our aircraft have been damaged in battle. Now, the last plane has also completed its final mission, and this is the third time that it has carried out a support mission to the guerrilla republic, and it seems that it is also my last. ”

His last words aroused the alarm of everyone.

Yevlov asked: "So, the two previous large-scale airdrops against us, you also participated in ?!!" ”

"Of course! I'm the commander of the operation! This is a great honor for Ivanov, who patted his chest and proudly said: "Last September, in April this year, I was the commander of the operation!" That's why I landed here! It was also for these outstanding actions that I received the rank of colonel. ”

"I see!" Yang Mingzhi immediately put down the magnetron that he had been playing with for a while, "I really can't imagine that you are actually our old comrade-in-arms!" ”

"From now on, they will be close comrades-in-arms! Comrade Commander! Ivanov smiled and winked, "Don't you look at the remaining two wooden boxes?" What is contained here is indeed the Order of the Golden Star, and at the same time there is a certificate of the title of Hero of the Soviet Union! ”

At this point, Yang Mingzhi and the others couldn't wait to come over, he really thought that he was going to get another big gold star.

In fact, Salinchkin knew best, and if the military council wanted to issue another big gold star to Berekov, it would definitely know about it. So who are these two abrupt medals for? "Is it the two of them?"

Salinchkin had already guessed the result, but he still kept his composure, staring at Yang Mingzhi as he opened one of the boxes and opened a folded kraft paper.

A black-and-white photo of a young girl appeared in front of everyone, and the name under the photo was also written very clearly, in the surname column, it was written "Spiroskina". 2k reading web
