Romanian Eagle

Since returning to Romania, Thessaloniki has been extremely busy, with construction sites starting at any time. According to city government statistics, there are currently as many as 80,000 workers working on construction in Thessaloniki. The construction of a series of facilities such as docks, warehouses, and large cranes has brought earth-shaking changes to Thessaloniki.

In the town of Kalamaria, on the outskirts of Thessaloniki, construction is also underway here. A small hill facing the sea less than half a kilometer southeast of the town was very lively, and all the free laborers in the town went to help. I heard that a new type of signal transmission station will be built to provide signal support for the surrounding navigation.

This is a good thing. Many people in the town have been seafarers and know the dangers of the sea. Not to mention, the wages for this construction are not bad. I heard that the time required is short, so the wages are so high.

Therefore, with the efforts of the patriotic masses, the construction of the signal transmission station is extremely fast, and it is almost at the final stage.

And the real purpose of this hidden, in fact, this thing is called a radio detection and ranging instrument, which is what everyone calls radar.

In fact, the development time of this thing is not too late. Soon after the end of World War I, Romania began to independently develop it. However, it is limited by the gap between itself and its own level and a large number of instruments have not been invented, and its research and development is very slow. Because the great Romanian guide knows this stuff only in terms of nouns, and can give very little help.

After Mussolini came to power, the relationship between the two countries rapidly warmed up. During Eder's visit to Italy, radar was added to the joint research and development of new technologies between the two countries, because the radio research in Italy is higher than that in Romania.

Although the inventor of the radio, Marconi, devoted most of his energy to his British radio company, his research in Italy was not bad at all. As early as 1922, Marconi mentioned the use of radar in a speech delivered by the American Institute of Electrical and Radio Engineers. Although his original intention was to prevent ships from colliding, his idea was highly inspiring for later research.

In the same year, Taylor and Young of the United States suggested that two warships be equipped with high-frequency transmitters and receivers to search for enemy ships, which was also inspired by Marconi's report.

With the start of joint research and development between the two countries, the development of radar has entered a new stage. Especially on the premise of sufficient funds, the first experimental radar was built in 1927.

Although the experimental radar was built earlier, it is far from practical. The main reason is that the detection distance is not enough, and the work is unstable, but its development prospects are enough to attract attention.

After attracting the attention of the military, the development momentum of radar has not weakened at all. From the beginning, it can only detect airships more than ten kilometers away, and it also needs to build a huge emission source up to fifty or sixty meters.

Up to now, radars capable of detecting 60 to 70 kilometers only need a transmitter with a height of 30 to 40 meters.

Of course, the current radar is still not satisfactory to the Navy and Air Force. They want a radar that can be installed on warships and aircraft, not such a huge radar that can only be used for ground sounding. However, with the development of the situation in Europe, it cannot wait any longer, and the military can only accept this result first and use it for air-to-sea early warning.

Therefore, in key areas of Romania, such as the border with the Soviet Union, important ports, military locations, transportation hubs, etc., firstly build radars for early warning.

As Romania's most important port in the Mediterranean Sea, Thessaloniki is definitely eligible for this treatment.

And the radar in Kalamaria is just one of the early warnings, and in Thessaloniki there are six radars that provide early warning against any possible surprise attack.

Of course, this information is only known to Major Andrews, who is in charge of the command and construction. Of course, this is indeed a radio signal station, but it is not about communication.

Andrea looked at the busy construction site and asked the deputy beside him. "Our construction work here is almost completed. When will the installation and commissioning people come?"

The deputy was obviously very familiar with this, and I saw him answer. "Currently they are still installing a radar station in the area in Rodneyna, and it will take four days for the area to be built. I need to wait at least four days if no other stations are ahead of schedule."

"Very well, you need to keep an eye on their progress and take them over as soon as the climb is completed."

Obviously, in order to grab the progress, Andriel also used means. No way, because he got information from covert channels, the priority of this task may get the commander in command of the early warning force.

So this time he plans to use means to get himself this position.

It's just that some people are faster than themselves and can only be ranked second.

For Andriel, he cannot afford to lose this competition, because the unit will be the key to his transformation from a technical officer to a military officer, and Andriel is determined to win.

When the construction of radar stations was stepped up in various places, Germany, which was supported by Romania and Italy, became increasingly tough on Poland.

In June, he publicly stated that Danzig and the Polish corridor should join Germany unconditionally, because the region has been inhabited by Germans for generations. It was only affected by the Treaty of Versailles and was forced to cede it to Poland. Now the German Empire needs to change this wrong decision.

Hitler's words made the patriotic enthusiasm of the German people continue to rise, and domestic expectations for him were further increased. It's just that Hitler's speech seems to have little response in Europe. Except for the neutral countries wanting the two countries to put aside their disputes, Britain and France, which he cared about most, did not react violently enough. The two countries only further raised the question of Poland, and then they were busy expanding their arms and preparing for war.

It's just that although Britain, France and Poland ignored Germany's attitude, there was one country that was frightened by Germany's statement, and that was Lithuania.

How dare such a small country take over German territory?

Yes, Lithuania invaded German territory. After the end of the First World War, Lithuania took advantage of the chaos to occupy this German-majority region, and it has been in control until now with the support of the League of Nations.

And now Germany's tough attitude on the Polish issue has made Lithuania also frightened. How could Hitler forget the Lithuanians, but this time it was a little late to ask Lithuania to return them. And the result was the same as history. Faced with German intimidation, the Lithuanians immediately succumbed.

The ecstatic Hitler, accompanied by the commander-in-chief of the navy, Reeder, took the battleship Bismarck to Memel to patrol the returned area.

And now he is more confident about taking Danzig and the Polish corridor further.
