Back to the Republic of China to be a editor

Tang Hua: "This is a reasonable inference. He will also analyze the future direction of the war in North Korea as the former commander of the Allied Forces. If he thinks that the US military still has the possibility of achieving a greater military victory, it may He will order the implementation of some offensive campaigns and engage in military adventures to allow the United Nations side to gain more benefits during negotiations. If he looks at it and thinks that the U.S. military cannot achieve any results, that’s it. After taking office, it will tend to Conservative, reduce casualties and let the United States get out of North Korea as soon as possible. After all, the problems facing the United States now are not only the stalemate in North Korea, but also the domestic economic and financial decline.”

President Eisenhower this term...

Everyone knew that he was a famous general in World War II before, and they all thought that he would use his military talents to attack the Soviet Union and China, and crush the Warsaw Pact Group.Unexpectedly, Eisenhower worked for two terms for 8 years, and did not directly interfere with the Soviet Union and China. Instead, he made great achievements in internal affairs and economics.

Not only did it not directly interfere with the Soviet Union and China, but also secretly cooperated with the Soviet Union during the Suez War in 1956, starting the process of completely disintegrating the two old colonial empires of Britain and France.

Signed an armistice agreement with China, engaged in non-military wars with the Soviet Union and engaged in civil wars, laid off McCarthy, started the interstate highway project, and proposed the "Eisenhower Doctrine" of interfering in Middle East affairs when the Middle East was just beginning to rise, and began to fight in the White House. golf.

In addition, Eisenhower's vice president is also more interesting, Richard Nixon.

"Actually, if Eisenhower visits South Korea, he may encounter another problem," Tang Hua said, "Sungman Rhee."

When the U.S. presidential election was finalized, Syngman Rhee's head was probably full of thoughts of "Oops! It's a mess!".

Similar to Chiang Kai-shek's support for Dewey's presidential election in 1948, Syngman Rhee, or the entire South Korean government, hoped that Stevenson would be elected in the 1952 presidential election.The reason is that Eisenhower has always insisted on "I want to reach an armistice agreement with China to make the Korean peninsula peaceful and allow the soldiers to go home" since he ran for the election, and he never changed his words.

Of course, Syngman Rhee did not want the Korean War to end in the current situation.Until October 1952, Tang Hua read South Korean newspapers and saw large editorials saying that the north should be unified, and Syngman Rhee still kept the tone when interviewed by reporters.

That's probably the case with a dead duck's mouth.

But if Syngman Rhee is not a fool, he should know that he will not be able to unify the Korean peninsula.He still insisted on fighting like this, and insisted that the U.S. military join him to fight to the end with the Chinese and North Korean coalition forces. He should hope to regain lost ground. The current situation is too embarrassing for South Korea.

"Sungman Rhee and Eisenhower haven't met yet," Tang Hua said. "During the US presidential election, Syngman Rhee was optimistic about Stevenson, so it is certain that the conversation between the two of them will not be very pleasant. Knowing that Syngman Rhee still insists on attacking the north, I won’t like Syngman Rhee either. The two of them should have a relationship that hates each other.”

After listening to Tang Hua's analysis, the Prime Minister just nodded and didn't say anything else.

Syngman Rhee still insisted on attacking north, the north...

Don't say anything.

The Prime Minister met with the North Korean ambassador to China last night and talked about 12 o'clock in the evening. Why do you think it happened.

……

"Minister Tang, it's done! 126 transistors!"

Huang Kun and Xie Xide, who regarded this as their work place in the experimental area of ​​the computer institute, saw Tang Hua walk into the experimental area, and they couldn't wait to announce the good news loudly.

In the palm of Tang Hua's hand is a packaged chip, a rectangular sheet the size of a thumb, with 4 pins on the left and right sides.

"Is it engraved according to the design drawing?" Tang Hua asked.

"It was made according to the No. 4 design drawing." Huang Kun said, "The key is that Mr. Xie's machine has been adjusted to the right position. In addition, the accuracy of the film is good. The new film making machine was shipped from Suzhou, and the first version was produced after passing the debugging. The negatives meet the design requirements."

"How many pieces were produced in the first batch? What is the yield rate?"

"25 pieces were produced, and 14 pieces were qualified." Xie Xide said, "There are two batches of which I probably made a mistake in the operation. If we continue to make it, the yield rate will be higher."

A qualified chip has been plugged into the board, and the board is also connected to the test instrument.On the large breadboard at another place on the table, a bunch of parts are plugged in. The circuit function of these resistors, capacitors and diodes and transistors is the same as that of the chip.

"A silicon wafer the size of a fingernail, and a packaged chip the size of a thumb, can accommodate 126 transistors. The speed of progress is really like a rocket," Huang Kun said. The area is trying to make integrated circuit chips. If this chip is used in a computer, the computer will shrink from the size of a wardrobe to the size of a wooden box."

Xie Xide: "The United States and Britain are still making transistors in the laboratory. We have not only made transistors, but also mass-produced them and miniaturized them. Now it is better, and it is a direct cross-generation. The technological leadership between us and them should be It's getting bigger again."

"Professor Huang," Tang Hua said, "that's right. The next-generation computer T53 of the Bureau of Electronics and Information Industry is still a transistor computer. I am also considering whether the next-generation computer T54 should be made into an integrated circuit computer."

Huang Kun: "Huh?"

"Mr. Xie is right," Tang Hua said. "Western countries have not yet fully grasped the industrial production and application of transistors, so we are not in a hurry to introduce integrated circuits to the market. Therefore, the general-purpose T53 computer is still a transistor. By 1954 Whether or not integrated circuits will be mass-produced to manufacture computers in 2 depends on the development of each country. However, Team X will continue to do so, with two more people, Zhang Jue and Wang Shoujue from the Shanghai Institute of Computer Science."

"Just keep trying to fit more transistors on the same silicon area?"

"Yes. The general goal is that next year, in 1953, we will have more than a thousand transistors integrated on a single chip."

Xie Xide: "Now the potential of these machines can still be tapped. I plan to try the integration of 200 tubes before the end of the year."

Tang Hua: "The existing equipment can try 200 tubes or even 300 tubes, but Shanghai is already producing new planar lithography processing equipment, and there will be new film equipment next year. It costs a lot of foreign exchange...Changchun Optics The speed of progress of the instrument factory can't keep up..."

Huang Kun: "Now that this batch of chips has been manufactured, and the design is so good, I really want to come up with some new products to test."

"This is fine," Tang Hua said, "Small-scale mass production, it can be considered as a demonstration of high-tech products. As for what products to make... Let's discuss together tomorrow."

……

Taipei.

General Hu Zongnan of the Republic of China Army officially took office as Commander-in-Chief of the National Army.

After Sun Liren was dismissed from the position of commander-in-chief of the army, many people in the government were guessing who would take over.

If Bai Chongxi was still in Taiwan, he should have been one of the popular candidates. However, in June 1950, Lao Bai sneaked away to Hong Kong. Are you stupid?"

Hu Lian was also more capable of fighting, but he was defeated in Kinmen and Penghu and escaped alone, which really hurt the reputation of this famous general.Now many officials in the national government privately call him the "escape general" and "escape master", and some newspapers ridicule that "no Communist general can catch Hu Lian".So Hu Lian is still a lieutenant general now, and the motion to be promoted to the second general has never been passed.

The remaining candidate is Hu Zongnan.In the first phase of Whampoa, a student of the emperor who is rooted in Zheng Miaohong, a confidant of Chiang Kai-shek, and one of the "Thirteen Taibao" of Lao Chiang.

Hu Zongnan was able to fight well when he was young, but after the age of 40, his combat command level dropped sharply, and he lost all the way to Taiwan.

But in the current situation, Chiang Kai-shek believes that the first criterion for selecting senior generals is loyalty, and the second is whether they can fight.

"Qinzhai (Hu Zongnan's word Qinzhai), when the party and the country are in crisis and downturn, you and I should unite with sincerity, not surrender to powerful enemies, not bow to foreign powers, and stick to the last position of the Three People's Principles. Guan Yunchang was commemorated by future generations for a thousand years , People’s evaluation of this famous general is loyalty, righteousness, benevolence, courage, propriety, wisdom, and faith. Loyalty, righteousness, and benevolence are at the forefront. I hope you will follow Guan Yunchang’s example and fight for the Republic of China to the end.”

Chiang Kai-shek said to Hu Zongnan solemnly.

Chapter 6, dispatching troops to Fujian

On the south bank of Taihu Lake, Wuzhen.

The 26th Division of the 78th Army is stationed.

The 78th Division was changed to an amphibious mechanized infantry division before the Battle of Kinmen, and participated in the Battle of Kinmen and the Battle of Penghu.Since the entire division was specially configured for amphibious sea crossing operations from training to equipment, when the 9th Corps set off to fight in North Korea, only 3 divisions of 11 armies—the 78th Amphibious Division—was left in Xiamen.

In September 1952, under the order of the central government, the 9th Amphibious Division left Xiamen by sea, went north into the Qiantang River, and finally landed in Haining, and moved to Wuzhen, where it was temporarily stationed.

The 9th Corps has joined the Volunteer Army for two years, and has rotated into North Korea twice and a half (after the second campaign, half of the divisions of the 9th Corps returned to China to rest, and the other half continued to fight). Now the 3 armies have withdrawn from North Korea one after another and gathered in the Northeast. It will soon go south to the Jiangsu-Zhejiang area.

At Jiaxing Railway Station, several military trains stopped on the platform. More than 30 PT-76 amphibious tanks and dozens of support trucks drove off from the flatbed wagons and lined up at the station first.

"This tank is really big! It must be very powerful!"

Lao Zhou at the station saw these large iron cars lined up outside the station one by one, and pointed at the tanks with great interest.

"Old Zhou, have you seen tanks before?" asked the cadre of the Railway Corps.

"I've seen it in 48. Speaking of it, it was a tank of the Kuomintang soldiers. It was small, just a little bit," Lao Zhou said. , the barrel is thick and long."

The railway cadre smiled.He is not a tank soldier either, and he has no idea what type of tanks he is transporting or how powerful they are.Now that he saw these tanks unloading, his inner feelings were actually similar to those of Lao Zhou.
