Chapter 281 The first 1-ton steel plant went into operation
At the small market in Lijiazhuang, Qi Tongwei and Gao Xiaoqin strolled among the bustling crowd, savoring snacks and admiring various New Year decorations.
The laughter and conversation of the two people were heard from time to time in the bustling market, and they seemed not to notice the two little tails following quietly behind them.
Gaoda pulled Gao Xiaorou, and the two of them followed Qi Tongwei and Gao Xiaoqin carefully like naughty children.
Sometimes they hid behind the stalls, sometimes they hid in the crowd, observing the two people in front of them.
Gao Da watched Qi Tongwei and Gao Xiaoqin walk all the way, but they still hadn't held hands yet. He couldn't help but whispered anxiously, "Qi Tongwei is such a fool. He hasn't taken the initiative to attack even though we've given him such a good opportunity."
Gao Xiaorou on the side also nodded and said, "Commander, you are right. The political commissar is really a fool. My sister has taken the initiative, but he still doesn't take the initiative. I am worried about him."
There was a mischievous gleam in her eyes, and she seemed to be enjoying this little game of 'stalking'.
Gaoda nodded in agreement, while Gao Xiaorou looked at Gaoda and said in her heart, "The political commissar is a fool, and you are also a fool. I am such a beautiful woman standing in front of you, don't you feel moved? It turns out that those who work with fools are also fools."
She sighed softly but quickly returned to her playful smile.
In this way, Qi Tongwei and Gao Xiaoqin strolled around for more than two hours before returning to the command center.
They chatted happily along the way, completely unaware of the little episode behind it.
When the Gao sisters left the command center, they both looked at Gao Da and Qi Tongwei with resentful eyes, which seemed to contain thousands of words.
Both of them were confused in an instant. Gaoda looked innocent, not knowing what was going on. Qi Tongwei also felt puzzled.
They looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
"Commander, the way the Gao sisters looked at us just now seemed strange."
Qi Tongwei said, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he was trying hard to recall if he had done anything wrong.
Gundam nodded. "It's all your fault. You're such a fool."
"What does it have to do with me? I didn't do anything out of line." Qi Tongwei defended, confusion written all over his face.
"Oh, forget it, forget it, just think about it yourself. It can only be understood but not expressed in words." Gundam said with regret.
Qi Tongwei looked at Gao Da, then turned back to look at the Gao sisters who had already walked away, his heart full of doubts.
..................
2 month 15 day.
The lively atmosphere of the Spring Festival has gradually dissipated, and the independent column’s base has ushered in a new round of large-scale construction and preparations for spring plowing.
The soldiers also ended their short rest and began to return to the training ground one after another, engaging in the intensive and orderly training after the end of the New Year.
On the training ground, the soldiers' slogans and footsteps came one after another, and their figures looked particularly agile in the morning light.
Meanwhile, deep inside Wild Wolf Mountain, in a large factory, the atmosphere was bustling with noise and tension and excitement.
Thousands of workers and engineers worked here day and night for a common goal - the construction of the first 10,000-ton steel plant of the Independent Column.
The construction of this steel plant was not only the Eighth Route Army’s first attempt, but also a milestone in the industrial development of the base area.
In preparation for this day to come, hundreds of experts and scholars live on the construction site every day to provide on-site guidance. Despite the difficult conditions, there is a gleam of determination in their eyes and their hearts are full of longing for the future.
"Everyone please be careful, install slowly, don't rush, and be safe."
Liu Guohui, the on-site commander-in-chief and director of the steel plant, was directing the installation of the blast furnace on site.
As the workers slowly hoisted the blast furnace into place, all of the steel plant's equipment was installed.
The scene immediately burst into warm applause and cheers.
"Great, we made it."
“It’s really amazing that this steel mill has finally been built.”
Everyone was excited. They built a real steel plant from scratch.
Although the steel plant's output was not large, it was a great start for the Eighth Route Army.
After the steel plant goes into production, it will be able to produce nearly 30 tons of high-quality steel every day, and nearly tons of steel a year.
These high-quality steels can be used to make weapons and equipment, and the produced steel will be supplied to arsenals first.
One kilometer away from the steel plant is a medium-sized iron mine with reserves of over 1 million tons, capable of producing millions of tons of steel.
Therefore, there is no need to worry about the supply of raw materials.
Liu Guohui excitedly said to his assistant, "Xiao Liu, quickly call Commander Gao to tell him the good news. The steel plant has been completed."
"Yes, factory director."
The assistant quickly turned and ran towards the office.
After receiving the call, Gaoda immediately rode on horseback with a group of guards to Wild Wolf Mountain.
He was very excited, as the commissioning of the steel plant meant that industrial production in the base would reach a new level.
Steel holds a very high status in Gundam's heart, and any weapon and equipment requires high-quality steel.
He knew that with this steel plant, the weapons and equipment of the independent column would be greatly improved.
"If there is one, there will be two. In the future, the independent column will build a larger steel plant to produce more high-quality steel." Gundam silently planned the future development blueprint in his heart.
He knew that this was just the beginning and that the industrial road of the independent column would become wider and wider and go further and further.
It didn't take long.
Gundam and his crew arrived at a steel plant deep in Wild Wolf Mountain.
The guards looked at the steel plant in front of them and gasped. They had never seen such a large factory. To them, it was simply a miracle.
Gundam didn't feel anything special, as to him it was just a small steel plant.
He came from the 21st century and had seen those large-scale, technologically advanced steel mills, which were truly shocking.
But for China today, this 10,000-ton steel plant in front of us can be ranked among the best in the country. It represents a huge leap in the industrial strength of the base.
When Liu Guohui saw Gao Da coming, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Commander Gao, I have accomplished your mission. The steel plant was completed today."
Gaoda shook Liu Guohui's hand tightly and said happily: "Director Liu, you have worked hard. The establishment of the steel plant is inseparable from everyone's efforts."
"It's not hard, this is what we should do."
"Commander, let me take you to visit the steel plant," Liu Guohui invited.
Gaoda nodded, and then Liu Guohui took Gaoda and his party to visit the steel plant.
Everyone was looking at the huge equipment in front of them and was deeply shocked. They knew that these equipment would produce countless weapons and tools, providing a solid material foundation for the victory of the War of Resistance.
Gundam looked at the steel plant in front of him with great satisfaction. He could feel that every worker here was full of energy and enthusiasm.
Before leaving, he specifically told Liu Guohui: "Director Liu, the steel plant has been built. The next step is to produce steel with all our strength. If you have any difficulties, please tell me at any time and I will help you solve them."
"Yes, Commander."
Gundam knew that the completion of this steel plant was not only an industrial achievement, but also the pride of the independent column and the people of the entire base area.
It will become the heart of the base and provide a continuous source of power for the war of resistance.
He believed that with the steel plant coming into production, the base's industrial production would be taken to a new level, laying a solid foundation for ultimate victory.
