Fengxian Jiangshan

Chapter 287 Mortar

Zhang Tinglan has always been generous with weapons and has no secrets. This is certainly to gain Zhang Zuolin's trust, but the more important reason is that Zhang Tinglan does not take these weapons seriously. No matter how good things are, they will be consumed on the battlefield. Products, only those that can be produced by themselves are the most valuable and worth fighting for desperately.

However, Zhang Zuoxiang, who is poor and afraid, doesn’t think so. Not to mention Zhang Zuolin, even if it is thrown to Beijing, Duan Qirui and other Beiyang tycoons will be jealous, especially the heavy artillery, which is something they can’t ask for. cautious.

"Zhuoyan, these things must be registered first, and then transported to our arsenal. As for how to distribute them, I will personally discuss with Yuting. In short, we can't work in vain. The best things must stay in Jilin."

"Father, I actually mean the same thing. As the saying goes, good steel is used on the blade. Now the situation in Russia is getting worse and worse. It has reached this point. Maybe when the country will collapse, we will show our talents at that time." Opportunity, at least to get the Middle East Road in our hands, absolutely not if we are weak, because we not only need to deal with the Russians, but also guard against the Japanese meddling, so the heavy artillery must be equipped with Jilin first!"

Originally, Zhang Tinglan also mentioned the idea of ​​winning the Middle East Road several times, but both Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Zuoxiang were drawing question marks in their hearts. After all, Russia is too big.But things have developed to this day, and Zhang Zuoxiang began to believe in this plan for the first time. The current situation in Russia is too bad. It can be said that it has been rotten from top to bottom.

"Well, since you have this plan, I will try my best to fight for it. Also, keep it a secret, and no one else wants to know the exact number except us!"

After Zhang Zuoxiang finished his explanation, he ran over to inspect it himself. When he saw the pile of ammunition, he felt dizzy for a while. He picked up a rifle from the ground and looked carefully. It was at least [-]% new, and the workmanship was very good.In the past, Feng Jun would have regarded this thing as a baby bump.

But now it was thrown on the ground casually, and the soldiers in charge of sorting it out didn't want to take a second look at it. The difference between the front and the back is as big as heaven and earth.Zhang Zuo became more and more satisfied with his son.This kid actually thought of such a good way to play Tsarist Russia.Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be many years.Feng Jun never even thought of getting such a good thing.

Of course, Zhang Zuoxiang was also emotional. His attention was still on those dark heavy guns. There were more than a dozen 150mm howitzers in front of him, lined up in a long row, and there was a trace of the battlefield on the gun body. The gunpowder smoke and the high muzzle are a full display of strength.

As an old troop.Zhang Zuo was obsessed with these weapons, not only him, Xiong Mengyuan was the same, he checked all the cannons carefully.He looked at the remaining parts again, and then ran to Zhang Zuoxiang.

"Assistant Marshal, I took a look just now. Although these guns are all assembled, they must be carefully checked to see if they can achieve the original effect. I suggest transporting them back to Jilin as soon as possible. They can be equipped with troops after inspection and adjustment in the arsenal."

Zhang Zuoxiang nodded: "Is there anything else I should pay attention to?"

"Then there is the issue of shells. We got artillery, but the number of shells is too small. Without shells, these big guys are just a bunch of decorations. I plan to cooperate with Lao Chen and find a few Russian technicians to think together. The method is to imitate the shells, the quality may not be as good as the original ones, but they can still be self-sufficient!"

"Very well, you are responsible for all of these, don't make any mistakes, and there must be no mistakes in every cannon."

"Fushuai, don't worry, not only these guns, but also the remaining parts will be properly preserved. We can't produce them now, so we can only rely on tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall. The remaining parts will not be exchanged!"

Zhang Zuoxiang personally directed the artillery handling work, fearing that there would be some damage, Xiong Mengyuan followed suit, and when everything was about the same, Zhang Tinglan called Xiong Mengyuan over again, and handed him another list with a smile.

"Old bear, my father and the others are all staring at weapons, I think you must like these things."

Xiong Mengyuan took it over and took a look, and sure enough, his eyes were shining, and his hands trembled slightly, appearing extremely excited.There are a lot of machinery and equipment listed on the list, including mining and metallurgical equipment, as well as various machine tools.

These include two sets of coal mining and coal washing equipment, a power plant with a daily generating capacity of 20 kwh, a steel plant with an annual output of about [-] tons, including a [-]-ton steelmaking blast furnace, and two The iron furnace, which is a completely obsolete technology in later generations, consumes a lot of energy, wastes resources, and causes serious pollution, but it is a very good equipment in today's world.

The equipment of this iron and steel factory was imported from France before the war. The Russians also felt the tense situation, so they bought it in their hands. They wanted to increase the war potential, but before it was completed, World War I began, and the war became more and more Nervous, a large number of people in Russia were recruited to the front line, and many factories stopped, especially in the direction of Europe, which gave the Fengjun a chance to do something.

In addition to the steel factory, there is also a metallurgical factory, a bicycle factory, and more than 300 machine tools. After receiving such a list, Xiong Mengyuan was overjoyed. With these things, the steel and coal industry can start, and 300 If multiple machine tools are used well, some machine parts can be produced by themselves, which is another big progress.

In addition, compared with Fengtian, Jilin is still one quarter behind, and the power generation capacity is even more insufficient. The arsenal can only run on its own generator. If it can get a power plant with a daily power plant of 20 million hours, the energy of the arsenal will be completely exhausted. Once stabilized, the output can be improved by a big step.

Xiong Mengyuan couldn't be unhappy seeing these things: "Not all of these devices are from the Far East, I think a lot of them should come from Europe!"

"That's right, didn't Wang Tieshan promise to get us [-] machine tools at the beginning? This guy has been tossing a lot in the direction of Russia. Now that the road to the Far East has been completely opened up, he has no scruples. These equipment will be shipped continuously. Come here, this is just the first batch. Of course, in addition to the equipment, some talents and scientific research materials will be brought over."

"People are always more important than machines." Xiong Mengyuan said: "What we lack most is talents, but are they willing to come? Can the Russian government let them go?"

"Old Xiong, you are so smart and confused for a while. If we want to get a few talents to come over, we don't need to ask them if they are willing or not. We can just tie them here. We are saving them from the flames. We will thank you!"

What Zhang Tinglan said is indeed correct. Soon the sky in Russia will turn red, and many of these old-fashioned intellectuals will be liquidated.If he could go to Fengtian now, he might have escaped a catastrophe. Of course, Xiong Mengyuan still couldn't understand these things. He was full of excitement. He didn't expect Zhang Tinglan to have such great energy.Got so many goodies!

"Mr. Zhang, these equipment are probably heavier than cannons. If they are transported to Fuyuan, we will carry them on our shoulders by truck. We don't know when they will be transported back to Jilin!"

"You don't have to worry about that." Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "The next large amount of goods will go to Suifenhe and be transported by rail. As for Fuyuan, we will still keep it. Let's walk on two legs."

Zhang Tinglan thought for a while and then said: "Old Xiong, Russia's industrial system is not perfect. Many factories do not exist, such as automobiles, engines, chemicals, electronics, machine tools, etc. They all rely heavily on foreign powers. In the past two years, the United States People have eliminated a batch of outdated production capacity, you can help me estimate what we still lack, and then I will let Felis order from the United States in the name of Russia, as much as you can get!"

It was only when Zhang Tinglan started to do things that he realized how difficult it is to develop industries. Not to mention a complete industrial system, even one or two industries are not an easy task. After several years of tossing, it is just the beginning.

Especially in a country that is torn apart, the big powers can crush the weak industrial foundation casually. It seems that there is still such an opportunity in front of you, so you must not let it go. In fact, think about it, Zhang Tinglan still has a little It's a dumbfounding feeling that the industrialization of China in later generations was also initiated by the Russians, and now, it is also destiny to make decisions from the Russians.

I stayed in Fuyuan for another period of time. During this time, the transactions between the two sides became more and more in-depth, and the Russians restricted Fengtian less and less. No matter what Fengjun transported, as long as the money was paid, Philip All are allowed.

This guy has now turned his attention to clearing up internal conflicts. Since he was reminded by Zhang Tinglan, this guy has been restless day and night, restless, afraid that sometime those opponents will jump out, instigate a mutiny, and completely overthrow him.

It just happened that more and more things were being traded, and Felice had enough food in his hand. He spent a large amount of money and used food and wine to win over the army. The Russian soldiers finally settled down. At this time, this guy started to clean up the interior hidden danger.

The Russians admire the strong, and political struggles have always been very bloody. Whoever can kill more people can win the opponent. Felis also raised his butcher knife mercilessly. The Far East was covered with dark clouds for a moment, and people were panicked. .

Of course, the more chaotic Russia is, the better it will be for Fengjun. Between Zhang Tinglan and Felis, you do yours, and I do mine. You consolidate power, and I evacuate Russia. Both parties will not delay.

Since Suifenhe was put into use, Fuyuan's status continued to decline. Zhang Tinglan arranged the remaining work, and then set off for Jilin.Before him, Zhang Zuoxiang had already gone back. This Zhang Fushuai personally escorted 28 heavy artillery pieces, and he was almost inseparable. He was more careful than anything else.

This time I went to Fuyuan, counting the time, it was just over a month ago, and the time finally entered 1917, which is also a year that is destined to be recorded in history. Zhang Tinglan also knows that after nearly two years of preparation, will he be able to To change history, it depends on this time to give it a go!

As soon as Zhang Tinglan returned to Jilin, good news came from the arsenal. They successfully produced two types of mortars, one with a caliber of [-] mm and the other with a caliber of [-] mm. The mortar is a cheap The weapons are powerful and suitable for the poor. As soon as Zhang Tinglan heard the news, she rushed to the arsenal enthusiastically.

After obtaining the Russian 91mm grenade mortar, the arsenal has carried out research and produced a mortar suitable for the Feng army. This thing is not high in technology, but it is just a layer of window paper, which can be broken at a glance.

"We first figured out the structure of the mortar, and then conducted experiments on Russian weapons. We found that the Russian mortar design was not successful. Simply put, it was a failure of the same level. The 91mm caliber, but the range is less than 1000 meters, for the first-level regiment to use, the range is too short, but for the lower level to use, because the caliber is too large, the weight is too heavy, and it is not light and flexible enough!"

While introducing to Zhang Tinglan, the research and development personnel of the arsenal put out two works and placed them in front of Zhang Tinglan.

"The larger one has a caliber of 600 millimeters, with a maximum range of [-] meters. It can fire projectiles weighing seven catties, and can fire six projectiles per minute. The killing effect is quite good!" (To be continued.. )
