Chapter 1279 TV Broadcast

Budyonny had a keen premonition that Kyiv could not be held, but he dared not say it, so he instigated Zhukov to tell him, and Zhukov spoke righteously and analyzed the pros and cons, but Stalin was unmoved and sent Zhukov back. Sent to the reserve force.

Stalin's attitude is firm, he is responsible for defending the territory, and voluntarily giving up territory is simply betraying the country. If he hadn't cherished Zhukov as a tiger general, Stalin really wanted to collapse him.

Now, the overall situation on the battlefield is in favor of Germany.

If Zhukov was on the northern line, then the North Army Corps would encounter a lot of trouble going south to Moscow, but now, Zhukov's departure will free up the northern line. Moscow, when it merges with Guderian's armored cluster, will approach Moscow, and in the summer, it will completely occupy the Soviet capital!

Up to now, almost all of them have followed the trend of history and at the same time have greatly improved. Cyric is very satisfied with all of this.

At this time, in the wolf's lair, everyone's eyes were fixed on a large iron box in front of them. There were countless cooling holes around the iron box. The front of the iron box was curved on one side. Thick glass screen.

"Führer Cyric, this is the latest TV set produced by our European company Thomson. Unlike previous TV sets, it is colored," Speer introduced to Cyric.

In this day and age, televisions are still a novelty.

Through radio, broadcasting has now been achieved, and at the same time, some people are thinking that since sound can be transmitted, it should also be able to transmit images. To this end, many people have made efforts.

For example, it is generally believed that the first television was invented in 1924 by the British electrical engineer John Baird.

However, in fact, Ferro-Farnsworth, Veratimir-Sforokin and Baird all invented independently, but the TV invented by the three is different.

To transmit an image, the most important thing is to divide the image into small dots and spread it out, and Baird's TV is a mechanical scanning TV, which uses an old motor to rotate the "scanning disc". This scanning disc is made of horse dung paper, with small holes poked around it, which can divide the scene into many small light spots with different degrees of light and shade to emit. In this way, one of the most primitive televisions, worth only a few pounds, was born.

He had the earliest success, but the scanning method was quite primitive and the image was unclear. After him, Ferro-Farnsworth and Veratimir Sforokin both adopted the electronic scanning scheme. , this is the common way of later generations.

After that, television broadcasting also began to develop gradually. By 1928, RCA Television in the United States took the lead in broadcasting the first TV series "Felix The Cat", and the year before last, Roosevelt began to use television to promote his election.

It's just that these TVs are still black and white, and can only display light and dark images, while the TV in the wolf's lair is now in color.

The principle of color is also very simple. Three primary colors, through three picture tubes, respectively construct three kinds of red, yellow and blue pictures, and then superimpose them together to become color, and the principle of photography is the same.

During World War II, all kinds of technologies, of course, must first serve the military. What is the use of this kind of TV?

Of course, there are many. For example, reconnaissance planes can take images and transmit them back directly, so the efficiency of reconnaissance is of course higher. Color TVs can display more information. Although the resolution is not as good as photography, it is fast. .

And now, as the technician turned on the TV, what appeared inside was a towering guy.

Then, Braun appeared in front of the TV.

For Braun, there are cameras in front of him, but he knows that on the other end, it is the high officials of the Empire watching him, this is a live broadcast, launching a V-4 rocket!

"Hello, Führer Cyric, long live the Empire!" Braun was excited, and then started to introduce: "This is the last finalized test flight of our V-4 rocket. It's a pity that Führer Cyric was not able to get ahead. Come to watch, but we have live TV, and now, all our launch personnel are waiting for the review of the head of state."

Originally, Cyric was going to take a look, but was stopped.

It's not that the military situation is urgent. The Empire's current communication system is very developed. Even if Cyric goes to Libya's rocket launch base, he can always understand the battlefield situation and give command.

What his subordinates are worried about is the safety of Cyric. The launch of the rocket is dangerous, and the hundreds of tons of fuel, once an accident occurs, it will be a big explosion.

Cyric recalled the experience of several failures of the Soviet Rocket Army in later generations, and also had lingering fears, so he listened to the opinions of his subordinates and switched to watching the live broadcast.

"Our V-4 rocket is developed on the basis of V-2. It adopts the idea of ​​​​the second-stage rocket proposed by President Cyric, which makes the range progress by leaps and bounds. The range of this rocket is 2,500 kilometers, and now the target of our test missile is Osad."

Hearing this, everyone laughed.

In fact, this missile has been quite mature after several test launches. After the last finalized test, it will be equipped with troops, and this finalized test cannot be wasted in vain. Therefore, in Cyric's decision Down, the target is no longer the shooting range, it is directly Osad.

Let the Soviets taste their own power!

At this time, the lens of the TV was zoomed in, and the huge missile appeared in everyone's sight. The reason why it can quickly complete the finalization and development is almost all using the original technology. The biggest difficulty is the second Stage rocket separation.

Its first-stage rocket directly uses 3 engines from V-2, and the total power can reach 100 tons. It drives the upper stage and will be abandoned after burning for more than 100 seconds, while the upper stage and V-2 are very Similarly, after continuing to fire, the speed increases and the range is longer.

When it was originally designed, it was developed according to the range of 1,500 kilometers. After the missile was developed, the computer also appeared. Braun used the computer to recalculate and optimize the trajectory of the missile, and the result was achieved. 2,500 kilometers, according to the classification of President Cyric, this is already the level of medium-range missiles!

"Now, we have three hours of pre-launch preparations and are about to enter the launch countdown." Braun disappeared, explaining outside the camera, and at the same time, the launch countdown was also broadcast.

"Ten, nine...two, one, fire!"
