Novels without logic
In 1950, the newly established People's Republic of China had zero industrial base, materials, components, and processes, and was simply not capable of manufacturing anti-aircraft missiles. At that time, China even had to rely on copying a single qualified short-range anti-aircraft gun, let alone missiles.
To show off and get slapped in the face, you've boiled your brain in hot water! For example, when enemy planes flew over the Shenyang Arsenal, the protagonist, carrying a SAM-7 anti-aircraft missile, shot them down!
This is a brainless, simplistic novel; it's somewhat insulting to one's intelligence.
The most crucial component of an air-to-air missile is its infrared seeker, which requires transistors—and not just one or two. Besides that, it also needs gyroscopes, stepper motors, batteries, and so on. Can the protagonist really just make these things on a whim? Moreover, given the technology of the 1950s, it would have taken more than a day or two to manufacture a missile.
Even knowing your book is destined to never be published and your writing isn't great, just the fact that you don't let your characters die so meaninglessly makes it worthwhile to invest and vote.
To watch this kind of thing, you have to be like listening to Guo Degang's crosstalk, where he says Yu Qian's father is the commander of the Mongolian Navy. But it's not that funny.
This feels like watching a ridiculous anti-Japanese war drama! It doesn't seem like something a human would write!
Don't look at this with your brain. They developed man-portable air defense missiles and rocket launchers in 1950? Those involved contain a huge number of electronic components and special materials. How could they possibly do that in an era of extreme poverty?
This is an insult to the martyrs who dedicated themselves to the country. The author is being too presumptuous.
Is this even something a human could write? Being able to build portable anti-aircraft missiles right from the start? That's probably harder than the most primitive nuclear weapons. You might as well just use a planet-destroying cannon to wipe them out in one shot and end the game.
