Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Chapter 273 Chapter 272, Get to Work
Two days later, at the narrow gap outside Huangya Cave, at the base of a battalion of the headquarters' special forces regiment, Li Yuexuan and his party finally met Minister Zhang.

"Hello, Minister Zhang! Codename Peregrine, I'm here on orders!" Looking at Minister Zhang waiting outside the narrow gap, Li Yuexuan hurried forward and saluted.

"Haha, Peregrine Falcon, didn't you say that we don't need to salute our superiors on the battlefield? Are you trying to harm me?" Minister Zhang teased with a smile.

"Minister Zhang, you are joking! This is not a battlefield, this is our rear base! Besides, with me here, even if the Japanese come to attack us, I will make sure they never come back!" Li Yuexuan stood at attention and said in a firm tone.

"Haha... when others say this, I think they are bragging! But when you, Peregrine, say this, I actually believe it! The results you achieved in the past few days are good for everyone who sees them! Look, there is a ray of light at the back. Our arsenal is located inside. Why don't you set up your directional explosion here as well?" Minister Zhang asked with a smile.

"No problem! How long will it take to get in there? As long as it is arranged properly, this narrow passage can kill hundreds of Japanese soldiers!" said Li Yuexuan.

"Haha... you peregrine falcon, your eyes light up when you talk about fighting the Japanese! However, you are not here just to arrange these defensive measures. Come here and temporarily serve as the chief technical engineer of the arsenal, coordinate the cooperation between various production departments, and let our arsenal start production as soon as possible!" Minister Zhang said.

"Yes, Commander!" Li Yuexuan agreed first, and then asked carefully: "Didn't our brigade commander say that he gave us two artillerymen? Where are the people? And the guerrilla team coming over, should they stay here or return to the base?"

"Stay here! Xing Weiguo should also stay here to receive some organizational education. It just so happens that we have a training class about to start here, with classes for heavy strike commanders and teams for grassroots commanders. Let Xing Weiguo attend the intermediate class and let Hu Lanzhou attend the grassroots training class. And you, while you are managing the arsenal, you can also go to the training class to further your studies!"

At this time, two young soldiers walked out of the crowd and stood in front of Minister Zhang.

"These two are the mortar gunners carefully selected by your brigade commander! This one is Shi Peican, and this one is Di Huailiang. They are the top graduates in our batch of students. Now, they belong to you!" After Minister Zhang finished speaking, he turned to Shi Peican and Di Huailiang and said, "This one is your platoon leader. You will fight with him from now on!"

"Hello, platoon leader!" Shi Peican and Di Huailiang stood at attention and saluted Li Yuexuan.

"Hello!" After returning the greeting, Li Yuexuan said to them, "Welcome to join our Beishan guerrilla mortar platoon! Shi Peican, from now on, you are the gunner of the first mortar squad, mainly responsible for the mortar parameter calculation and combat command! Di Huailiang, you are the gunner of the second mortar squad, also responsible for controlling the mortar combat. Your squad leader is Comrade Yang Gongxun!"

Because there was no suitable squad leader, Li Yuexuan merged the two mortar squads into one squad, with Yang Gongxun as the squad leader. Then, this squad had two mortar combat groups, one mortar per group. This formation was somewhat similar to the formation of the Japanese artillery squad.

Li Yuexuan made this division mainly because the two artillerymen were technical soldiers. They were good at operating mortars in combat, but they were not familiar with the control of fighter planes and the management and dispatch of personnel. Therefore, the old squad leader Yang Gongxun was in charge of the dispatch of personnel, the transportation and distribution of ammunition, and the two artillery commanders only had to follow orders and fire the shells into the places that needed to be bombed. The two new artillery commanders had no objection to Li Yuexuan's arrangement. Li Yuexuan had a general understanding of their situation. The two were progressive young people who came from their own schools to join the Eighth Route Army from afar, studied in northern Shaanxi for a period of time, and then were transferred to the artillery training team at the headquarters to learn artillery knowledge. They now have technology but no actual combat experience.

Well, management talents and technical talents coordinate with each other, this is Li Yuexuan’s way of handling things.

After the two artillery gunners were recruited, everything was on track! Because the status of the arsenal was so important, the steel rails brought by Niu Youtian were taken over by the comrades at the headquarters when they arrived in Tongyu Town, and they are now being carried into the narrow gap one by one. The final destination of these steel rails is the barrel of the gun and the grenade launcher.

Therefore, after handing over the comrades from the mortar platoon, the vanguard squad, and the transport squad to the special forces regiment, Li Yuexuan, Hu Lanzhou, and Xing Weiguo followed Minister Zhang into the narrow passage and headed for the arsenal.

Um, there is also Cai Xiaotian, who also followed Li Yuexuan into the Thin Line Sky. Because his mission is to protect Li Yuexuan, he can also go in.

After entering the narrow passage, Li Yuexuan finally saw the arsenal he had admired for a long time! To be honest, unlike the scenes he saw at the scenic spots later, the environment here was more primitive and more desolate, but the people and equipment were real, not just some statues.

Li Yuexuan knew that there was a defensive battle here, but the time was not right, so he did not mention these things. After all, this is the world of Bright Sword, so some things might not happen?
Minister Zhang is a responsible man. After handing over the work to the arsenal, he felt at ease and let Li Yuexuan take over the technical work of the arsenal.

As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, but the Arsenal is not as simple as that. After all, it is in the wilderness, and the biggest hidden environment is the huge cave. There is no decent power system, only steam engines to drive all the equipment, and the conditions are very simple.

Fortunately, Li Yuexuan does not need to worry about these issues that are not related to technology, as there are dedicated personnel to take care of these matters.

Li Yuexuan's job is to inspect back and forth between various production workshops, manage the production scheduling of each process, check the accuracy of each workpiece and so on.

This kind of work seems simple, but in fact, it is very complicated. Fortunately, Li Yuexuan has old friends like Lei Yan and Hai Datong to help him, so it is not that difficult to get started.

Therefore, on the fourth day of his work, he sorted out the production of grenades. Well, things should be done from easy to difficult. The biggest help was to make grenades first and produce them in an orderly and batch manner. Then, he invested in the production scheduling of other products, such as the production scheduling of Dinglong grenade launchers.
