- With several years of experience in using and building aircraft - they are all subsidiaries of China Aviation Group and share technology, Xi'an Aircraft Manufacturing Factory began to develop a complete passenger aircraft of this era, and to make it bigger. powerful. With traditional industry and transportation already slowing down, will China be able to achieve glory again with its courage to be the first in the world?
Zhang Hanqing was determined to use the development of the air force to offset Japan's overwhelming naval advantage over China, so he spent a lot of money on building air force capabilities. He imported a number of aircraft from the Soviet Union and the United States and made extensive modifications and copies. Among them are the famous American Douglas DT torpedo bomber (named "YH-1" after China modified it) and the Soviet-supported AHT-1 bomber (named the land-based "H-1" after China modified it) ").
During this period, Zhang Hanqing was particularly concerned about the development of the torpedo bomber "Yohh-1", which had the opportunity to become a weapon against Japan's huge navy.
Douglas DT is a two-seat, single-engine, biplane, carrier-based fish bomber with a crew of 2 and uses a 450-horsepower "Liberty" 12-cylinder piston engine. Equipped with a 7.62 mm Browning machine gun, bomb load: 1 834 kg (1835 lb) aviation torpedo. The fuselage is a steel frame structure, covered with aluminum skin before the middle section and cloth skin after the middle section.
Zhang Hanqing liked it because he had seen the blockbuster movie "Pearl Harbor" and was shocked by the scene in which fish and mines exploded warships. As long as such a torpedo hits directly, the huge battleship will be severed from the center. If there were several such torpedoes aimed at Japanese warships, what would be the shame of the Sino-Japanese War 30 years ago?
Its 441km range seems very short, but as long as it forms combat effectiveness, it is more than enough to protect the security of China's maritime borders within 200 kilometers. Zhang Hanqing has not yet thought of competing for air supremacy in the far seas. After all, you have to eat your meal one bite at a time.
Its technical performance may not seem worth mentioning today, but at the time, it was considered a very good model, although the United States soon replaced it with new aircraft.
Because this is a modified aircraft that the United States took from the United Kingdom and was quickly eliminated, it was introduced to the Chinese Air Force as a clamping tool to deal with the Japanese threat in Asia when Sino-US relations were heating up.
China already has the ability to manufacture such aircraft. The batch entry of J-1 fighter jets into active service has provided the aircraft manufacturing industry with a steady stream of upgrade opportunities and improvement capabilities. The gradually mature aircraft manufacturers have obtained this carrier-based version. Modification on land is not difficult.
Because China has a good background in the aircraft industry, China quickly produced imitation weapons with similar performance. Combining fighters, bombers, and transport aircraft, nearly 300 are built each year. By the end of the year, 3 fighter wings, 2 bomber wings, and a transport aircraft squadron had been formed, with nearly 300 combat aircraft of various types.
Although there are few aircraft, there are nearly 3,000 pilots, and there are three schools dedicated to training pilots, located in Qinhuangdao, Xi'an, and Nanchang. This is China's reserve of talents for the future.
An already built torpedo bomber group was handed over to the Navy's Bohai Fleet, together with the seaplanes that were part of the Navy's establishment. Since then, the navy and air force have been completely separated and moved forward hand in hand.
The Navy is not lagging behind either: the Chinese Navy's current important pillar armed force, seaplanes, has been equipped with 2 wings, two Hydro-1 squadrons and 2 reconnaissance aircraft squadrons, a total of 288 aircraft; the three major fleets of Bohai, Yangtze and South China The number of surface ships, especially destroyers, gunboats, and torpedo boats, has increased exponentially, and they have gradually become capable of serving as offshore defense capabilities;
In addition, China's first completely self-made submarine is about to be launched, and a series of supporting military products such as torpedoes, depth bombs, and ship-based artillery have also made breakthroughs. All of this depends on the early days of the Republic of China. The shipbuilding capabilities of two famous shipyards - Shanghai Jiangnan Shipyard and Fujian Shipbuilding Bureau (ie Fujian Mawei Shipyard).
Shanghai Jiangnan Shipyard was the largest shipyard in China until the time of crossing, and its strength was not weak: it once accepted orders from the United States from 1918 to 1919, manufacturing four 10,000-ton cargo ships of the same type, all with fully covered decks, The steam-powered cargo ships were named "mandarin", "celestial", "oriental" and "cathey".
These ships are 135 meters long, 16.7 meters wide, 11.6 meters deep, and have a displacement of 14,750 tons. Among them, the first "Guanfu" was launched on June 3, 1920. The four ships were inspected and accepted by the U.S. Department of Transportation. They are solid and well-equipped. The U.S. government is very satisfied with their construction quality.
Mawei Shipyard was built on December 23, 1866. It was the first mechanical shipyard produced by the Westernization Movement in the late Qing Dynasty in my country. Shen Baozhen, then Prime Minister and Minister of Shipping, fought against all obstacles, reformed the old system, and boldly introduced advanced European shipbuilding technology, equipment and engineering technicians. He hired a Frenchman, Japanese Italian, to be the shipbuilding supervisor, and appointed foreigners to teach shipbuilding and machine building skills. ??
In 1869, my country's first thousand-ton ship was built here; in 1871, my country's first steam engine was born; in 1882, my country's largest tonnage iron-ribbed wooden hull warship was built; in 1889, my country's first steel Shell-net armored warship.
From the establishment of the factory to 1907, Mawei Shipbuilding went through a process from learning from foreigners to build wooden-hulled steam warships to dismissing foreign technicians in 1875 and designing and building ships on its own, realizing the independent construction of wooden-hulled-iron-wood composite-steel ships. With the qualitative change of ships, a total of more than 40 large and small ships were manufactured, becoming the largest shipyard with the largest number of shipbuilding projects in my country at that time, and the largest shipbuilding base in the Far East at that time.
After the Revolution of 1911, Mawei Shipping Bureau was changed to Fuzhou Shipping Bureau, and the Aircraft Manufacturing Engineering Office was established. China's first "A-type No. 1" biplane seaplane was built here after more than a year of hard work by young Chinese scientific and technical personnel such as Bayusao, Wang Zhu and Zeng Yijing who graduated from the Department of Aeronautical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. successful.
Since then, 17 aircraft including two-seat training aircraft, coastal patrol aircraft, and torpedo bombers have been built, and my country's own pilots have been trained. This makes Fuzhou Shipping not only the birthplace of ships, but also the cradle of China's aviation industry.
Sometimes I think about it, old China is really not "poor and white" as mentioned in the textbooks. The first important China that can be borrowed is:
China¡¯s first heavy-duty diesel engine: 1924, 5 specifications of low-speed heavy-duty diesel engines, Shanghai Xinyan Machinery Factory.
China¡¯s first universal milling machine: 1918, Shanghai Wang Yueji Machinery Factory.
China¡¯s first diesel engine: 1913, ball-burning 40-horsepower diesel engine, Guangzhou Xiehe Machinery Factory.
China¡¯s first lathe manufacturing factory: Shanghai Rongchangtai Machinery Factory in 1915.
China¡¯s first steam engine for a 10,000-ton wheel: 1918, 3430 and 3668 horsepower steam engines, Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau.

Acknowledging the contributions of latecomers does not necessarily mean denying the achievements of predecessors. To be honest, although China's industrial foundation in the early Republic of China was not good, the gap was not as big as later propaganda. Of course, after the baptism of war, The gap in the future is inevitable.
"Sneaked into the night wind, moisten things silently". Under the leadership of the People's Party, visible military strength is increasing, and the growth of invisible potential power is even more astonishing. Zhang Hanqing used his advanced consciousness to draw a blueprint for ancient China to rise again:
Economic investment, due to the foundation of agricultural reclamation in Northeast China, the construction of water conservancy facilities, and the widespread use of tractors, farmers' enthusiasm and ability to grow grain have exploded unprecedentedly. Several fertilizer plants jointly established by China National Cereals and Oils Corporation and China National Chemical Corporation have been widely used in Northeast China, generally increasing the grain yield to 200 kilograms per mu.
Because of the huge profits, all parts of Northeast China have expanded their cultivated area and land reclamation efforts. The cultivated area has increased from 200 million acres to the current 300 million acres in only 10 years!
? It is said that with the foundation of 600 tons of gold and such good geographical conditions, it is not difficult for the economy to grow at a 100% annual rate. However, considering the sustainable development of the economy, Zhang Hanqing invested most of his finances in modern industry and modern transportation that were difficult to bear fruit in the short term.
Hydropower stations, telephone companies, precision machine tool factories, large shipyards, locomotive manufacturers, automobile factories, engine manufacturers, aircraft factories, large water conservancy facilities, large-scale railway networks these projects that are slow to produce results but have an important impact on the national economy and people's livelihood are Seize the day and night to get on the horse.
? Universities, technical schools, research institutes, laboratories, five-year compulsory education (nine-year system started in Northeast China) these high-cost and high-investment projects are also included in the performance evaluations of various local governments. What Zhang Hanqing wants is not a sudden GDP growth index, but a real way to strengthen the country.
"China is so big that we cannot rely on buying everything; we cannot rely on importing all advanced technologies.
Unlike the reform and opening up of later generations, the current task of the Republic of China government is to release China¡¯s hidden private productivity and expand domestic demand so that all industries can advance hand in hand. The national strength is still very weak. It is enough to prevent foreign goods from being dumped in China. Don't think about earning foreign exchange.
With industrial drag groups in the hands and local governments controlling the situation, foreign products cannot enter in many important areas. "Made in China" products therefore have the opportunity to improve in practice and lay a solid foundation for China's industrial renaissance.
It¡¯s not that China has no foundation, it¡¯s even very impressive. It¡¯s just that it was buried in the old society where all the horses were silent. Fortunately, Zhang Hanqing has carried forward this foundation. During this time and space, China, which was gradually recovering its vitality, rejuvenated and stood up again. This is an unchangeable historical trend!
According to the evaluation of the general trend of the country in modern history, when a big country rises in the cracks of traditional powers, the probability of a large-scale war breaking out between countries is only 50%. When one great power rises and another great power declines, war is inevitable. As the gap between China and Japan increases, the risk of war also increases greatly.
But where did this war start? Because of Zhang Hanqing's strong participation, the balance of power between China and Japan no longer makes China no longer the former Wu Xia Amen.
Since history has inevitably taken a turn, it should be impossible for another 9-18 to happen, but where will it be?
