Of course, it would not be so easy to build a rocket launcher. Otherwise, the German army, which suffered a lot during World War II, would not have to work hard to capture a Katyusha rocket launcher and move it back to study it.However, now that we have a general idea, with the ingenuity and strong copycat capabilities of the Chinese, the time for successful trial production will not be too far away. The most important thing right now is the design of rifles and small cannons, that is, the fixed samples of grenade launchers.

As expected of an ordnance expert, Chen Wei redesigned the Mosin Nagant rifle according to the structure of the original gun in just a few days, and took out the basic blueprint of the grenadier.Then, they found the best old technician in the ordnance factory of the Manufacturing Bureau, that is, the last check-in master in the factory. This old technician has worked in the ordnance factory for more than 7.92 years. He used a one-man job to create a sample gun and a grenade.After experiments, the new 100mm Mosin Nagant rifle is not inferior to the original gun, and its effective range is even about [-] meters beyond the original gun. The trajectory is very stable, the accuracy is extremely high, and the lethality is also great. Although the fly in the ointment is that the rear force is slightly larger, but it is still an excellent rifle.

Moreover, the redesigned Mitsubishi folding bayonet has enhanced the soldier's ability in hand-to-hand combat compared to the original dagger-style bayonet. Fang Zida and Chen Yu went to the shooting range to try a few rounds with the sample gun in high spirits. I was very satisfied, and then discussed the practical situation and overall structure of the sample gun. After discussing with each other, we made minor adjustments to the details, and basically decided on this rifle.

According to Fang Zida's request, Chen Yu marked the standards of each component on the blueprint according to the structure of the new rifle, and made it based on this standard after the assembly line process officially started.As for the naming of the new rifle, Fang Zida also proposed to replace this Mosin Nagant imitation rifle with the 3 new rifle in the third year of the Republic of China, referred to as the Min 1914 rifle.

After trying the rifle, the next step is to try the cartridge.There are two types of projectiles designed by Chen Wei, both of which have a caliber of 50mm. The difference lies in the length of the barrel. The short one is 300mm, and the long one is 450mm. There are rifling lines inside. The short one has a total weight of 2.5 kg. The long one is 3 kg.Using a special grenade, the grenade weighs about 600 grams.

For the sake of safety, the test shot of the grenade was operated by a special person from the Ordnance Institute. Fang Zida and Chen Yu hid 20 meters away and held up the binoculars to watch. They tried the short version first, and saw that the shooter pulled the firing lever first in a squatting position. , and then the ammunition hand on one side loads the ammunition from the mouth of the barrel to complete the installation of the ammunition.Then hold the launch barrel with the left hand of the shooter, turn the handle until the adjustment lever, and after roughly aiming through the aiming line, pull the belt on the firing machine to fire the explosives at the bottom to shoot out the grenade violently.The grenade threw a beautiful arc in the air and flew to the distance, and exploded with a bang more than 200 meters away in an instant.

"very good, very powerful!"

Holding up the binoculars, Fang Zida praised, and Fang Zida was even happier after the observers came back from the bombing point to report on the flight process and the explosion of the grenade.

The 300mm grenades have been tested ten times, and the final data are combined. The maximum range of this grenade can reach 380 meters, the effective range is 250 meters, and the grenade killing range is about 6-8 meters, which can fully meet the needs of the troops. need.

The next test launch of the 450mm grenadier was even more surprising. Although the killing range remained the same, the maximum range actually reached 650 meters, and the effective range was as high as 430 meters.

Although according to Chen Wei's suggestion, if the processing is more precise, the range of the grenadier can be increased, but Fang Zida doesn't care much about this proposal anymore.After all, the duster is not a cannon, but a supporting firepower carried by a single soldier, and it is used manually by a single soldier. Now this range and power can fully meet the firepower needs, and the design can be improved and carefully carved. There is no need for this at all, but it will increase unnecessary costs.

Regarding the naming of the grenade, Fang Zida didn't bother to think too much about it. With a big wave of his hand, he decided to choose the Min 3141 and Min 3142 according to the rifle method.

The training of technicians in the ordnance factory, assembly line installation, coordination of external technical personnel, determination of the style of new rifles and grenadiers... these tasks are carried out in an orderly manner.At the same time, newspapers in Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and even Anhui, Hunan, Fujian, Guangdong and other places appeared advertisements for days in succession.Without exception, these advertisements all published the upcoming large-scale investment promotion conference in Shanghai * Shanghai, and people from all walks of life and business celebrities were specially invited to attend.

Huzhou, which is more than 200 miles away from Shanghai, has been the hometown of weaving since ancient times, and Nan*xun in Huzhou is the most famous weaving place. "Cows, 72 dogs" are all well-capitalized, or they are self-professionals, or have close relatives.Those with assets of more than one million are called 'Xiang'. Those with more than 72 but less than a million are called "cows", and those with more than 50 but less than 20 are called "dogs".

Liu Yong, who is known as "the silver of the Liu family" among the famous four elephants, is the head of the four elephants. It is said that Liu Yong's wealth is as high as 2000 million taels. The face of the Pang family, the house of the Gu family". In these words, the Zhang family, the Pang family and the Gu family refer to the other three families in the Four Elephants.

On this day, in the mansion of the Liu family, the eldest grandson of Liu Yong, who is now the head of the Liu family in Nan*xun, Liu Chengqian, who is called "the foolish son" by outsiders because of his love of books, is making good friends with the visiting family, who is also the four Zhang Junheng, who looked like one, was talking with a smile.

"Hanyi, what do you think of this matter?" Zhang Junheng held a newspaper in his hand, pointing to the advertisement about China Merchants Association.

"What? Brother Shi Ming intends to go to the *sea?" Liu Chengqian was wearing a white suit, handsome, followed Zhang Junheng's gaze and asked with a smile.

"That's what I mean!" The two parties have been friends for many years, and Zhang Junheng did not lay an ambush, and immediately nodded and admitted: "I have been thinking about the business invitation in the newspaper for a few days, and I think it may be worth a try. You and I are from a weaving family. Over the years Entrusted to the ancestors to manage the business diligently and keep the business up to now, although they are the same as the four elephants, after all, the way of management is like a boat sailing in the flowing water. Over the years, my brother has been thinking about how to further the family business, but it is limited to all parties The reason is that there has been no progress. If everything said in this newspaper is true, I think it is an opportunity!"

"Hehe, since it's an opportunity, brother Shi Ming should go, why come here and ask me?" Liu Chengqian laughed.

How could Zhang Junheng not know about Liu Chengqian's character and temper?This silly boy is full of nothing but books, and he is not as keen on business management as his ancestor. If what he said today was that he accidentally saw an isolated copy of the Song Dynasty, Liu Chengqian would have jumped up without saying a word. Then he left, but what he came to talk about today was about investment promotion, and Liu Chengqian didn't seem very interested.

However, for Zhang Junheng, Liu Chengqian's attitude is very crucial.Among the four elephants, the Liu family has the strongest financial resources. Without Liu Chengqian's financial support, the Zhang family may not have much advantage in attracting investment from strong opponents like Lin.The two families are family friends, and the relationship between Zhang Junheng and Liu Chengqian is quite good on a daily basis. In order to be more sure, he has to pull the Liu family to his side no matter what.

"Hanyi, you know what I mean, why bother to evade?" Although Liu Chengqian loves books, he is not a stupid person. On the contrary, he is very smart. Hearing his answer, Zhang Junheng shook his head and smiled wryly.

Since Zhang Junheng was so straightforward, Liu Chengqian couldn't joke anymore. After thinking about it seriously, he asked, "Did you ask Jingjiang? What did he say? Isn't he in Shanghai?"

The Jingjiang that Liu Chengqian referred to was Zhang Junheng's younger brother Zhang Jingjiang, and he was the talented person of the Zhang family in Four Elephants. Zhang Jingjiang was from KMT and was currently living in Shanghai*Shanghai.

"Why didn't you ask? Jingjiang sent a letter saying that he didn't know the details of this investment promotion association. It is said that it seems to be related to Fang Zida of Zhongyang Bank. The specific situation is not clear."

"That's it..." Liu Chengqian tapped his left palm lightly with a folding fan in his hand, and after thinking for a while, he said, "It's okay, since the newspaper said that this is the China Merchants Association, then you and I will go and have a look before we talk. *Hai and Nan*xun are not far away, and it only takes a day to go back and forth, so there is no need to discuss it now, and everything will be discussed later.”

"Brother Wei also thinks the same way, but...if it's true what the newspaper said, I'm afraid I think my brother has some financial resources..."

"Money is not a problem!" Liu Chengqian said bluntly, and immediately agreed that if the Chen family's funds were insufficient, his Liu family would fully help.However, since it is a famous family in Nanxun, it is probably not enough to rely on only two of them. If possible, it is best to bring the other families together, so that everyone can be bundled together, which can reduce risks and raise more funds.

"That's right! Brother Wei also means the same thing!" Zhang Junheng said happily: "Your Liu family is the head of the Four Elephants. Brother Wei wanted to find other companies to participate after negotiating with Hanyi. Since Hanyi has already decided, then It's too good."

As soon as the cooperation was finalized, someone suddenly came to report that Pang Yuancheng from the Pang family, Gu Shouming, the third son of the Gu family, and the Jin family, Chen family, Mei family, and Zhou family from Eight Bulls were visiting.

Liu Chengqian and Zhang Junheng were taken aback at the same time, and after looking at each other, they laughed together. The two quickly got up and walked out of the house to welcome these old friends in.
