Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 425 Constant Surprises (First update!)

Speaking of this, a look of expectation suddenly flashed across the face of the deputy commander in chief, and then he stared at the deputy chief of staff and asked, "It seems that there is nothing wrong with the headquarters during this time?"

"Boss, you want to go to the arsenal!" The deputy chief of staff could see the deputy commander's thoughts at a glance.

"This is the first rifle produced by our Eighth Route Army. If you can't miss it, don't miss it!" The deputy commander replied very readily.

The deputy chief of staff replied very forcefully: "There is nothing wrong with the headquarters. I can handle it by staying. If you want to go there, boss, you can visit the Jinchaji Military Region and meet Lao Nie. After the division of troops, it seems that you haven't seen him yet." I just went to inspect the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region. I heard that they have developed well recently. Soldiers in the main force can eat an egg every two days, and the training bullets for recruits have been directly increased from five rounds to twenty rounds. If they can increase their The promotion of experience, for the entire Eighth Route Army, has only advantages and no disadvantages!"

"Then the headquarters will be handed over to you!" The deputy commander replied without hesitation!
Yang Xiong, Chief of Staff of the Guard Corps at the arsenal of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, recklessly barged in without knocking on the door.

Then he shouted in surprise: "Leader, chief! The chief's parents and children are here!"

Wang Ping immediately thought of a telegram he had sent to the military region a few days ago, inviting the commander to witness the appearance of the first self-produced rifle of the Eighth Route Army.

Then he stood up from his seat, stared at Yang Xiong and asked back.

"Where? I'll go there now!"

"Going towards the factory building!" Yang Xiong hurried back.

Before reaching the underground workshop, the roar of huge machines reached Wang Ping's ears.Then he saw Commander Nie pointing at the door of the No. [-] factory building at a glance.

At this moment, a familiar yet unfamiliar figure beside Commander Nie suddenly entered Wang Ping's field of vision.

"It's the deputy commander-in-chief, and he's here too!" Wang Ping was taken aback, opened his mouth, and then showed a shocked expression of disbelief.

But the movements on the feet didn't stop, and they walked quickly with Yang Xiong and his party.

"Hello Chief, Wang Ping, the director of the arsenal, was ordered to report! Chief, why didn't you send a telegram when you came here!" Wang Ping, who walked in front of the two, reported excitedly.

The deputy commander-in-chief was not polite, and replied directly: "I asked for it, and wanted to make a surprise attack on the arsenal. Director Wang, where is the rifle production line you showed us, and take us there immediately!"

"It's in this factory building!" Wang Ping replied immediately!
The deputy commander-in-chief was also polite, and walked directly inside, ordering as he walked: "Then what are you waiting for! Let comrades start production now!"

"Yes, Chief!" Wang Ping replied immediately.

Not long after, a huge roar and harsh metal friction sounded in the workshop.

Wang Ping went to the side of the deputy commander and introduced: "Chief, this factory is specialized in the production of rifles. One production line has already been completed, and the second one is under construction! At least [-] rifles can be produced!"

While speaking, various parts of the rifle were made by dozens of technicians, and then sent to the armed workers.

Everyone stared at these assemblers, and within 5 minutes, a new gun appeared!
Before Wang Ping could speak, the deputy commander grabbed the rifle, pulled the bolt, took aim, and shot!After a series of actions, the deputy commander finally showed a long-lost smile on his expectant face, and couldn't help but sigh.

"It's a good gun, exactly the same as the [-] cover we seized on the battlefield. Director Wang, I want to report to Yan'an and give credit to your arsenal!"

The next step is to test the gun. At the shooting range in the back of the arsenal, the guards brought by the deputy commander-in-chief personally tested the gun. They fired a hundred rounds before stopping, and then rushed over excitedly: "Chief, and the devils captured on the battlefield The [-] cover is exactly the same, with high accuracy, long range, and very small recoil!"

Seeing that everyone was very satisfied with this gun, Wang Ping said in a startling way: "Chief, I forgot to report just now. Except for rifles, the only production line for submachine guns and machine guns that we snatched back from the Taiyuan Armory has been completed!"

"The machine gun production line produces crooked handles. I asked everyone to change it and adjust it to produce Type [-] light machine guns. It uses the same bullets as the [-] cover, but the performance and stability are much better than crooked handles!"

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's take a look at it right away!" The deputy commander ordered with an air of impatience.

The production of submachine guns and light machine guns is much slower, because there are too many parts, and it takes more than an hour to make one.

Not to mention the machine gun, it took a whole morning to produce one, but even so, the deputy commander was very happy after the gun test, and there was no dissatisfaction on his face due to the long wait.

"How is the output? Director Wang!" The deputy commander in a good mood directly asked the question he was most concerned about.

"If submachine guns are produced day and night, five hundred a month." Wang Ping immediately told the latest figure discussed by the arsenal.

"If you don't listen to the production of light machine guns day and night, you can produce 120 in a month!"

"There is also a heavy machine gun production line in the back, which can produce [-] heavy machine guns a month!"

"After the mortar production line comes out, one can be produced in a day. The 120mm heavy mortar and mountain artillery can be produced every three days on average. The field artillery can be produced on average every ten days!"

"The ammunition is better, except for the reloading bullets, more than 300 million rounds of various bullets and more than 3000 shells are produced a month!"

"The only problem is the raw materials. The raw materials we got back from the Taiyuan Arsenal can only last for half a month at most!"

The shocked deputy commander replied after thinking about it: "The production of the arsenal must not stop! These weapons and ammunition are urgently needed by the frontline soldiers, and they must work overtime for production. As for the raw materials, let's find a way together!"

After finishing speaking, he stared at Wang Ping and asked, "You Wang Ping was able to get the equipment by pulling your teeth out of your mouth. The raw materials are definitely not a problem. Tell me what you think!"

"I plan to ask the whole army to provide us with raw materials through the logistics department of the military region. One hundred catties of rails can be exchanged for a rifle, two hundred catties of rails can be exchanged for a submachine gun, five hundred catties of rails can be exchanged for a light machine gun, and one thousand catties of rails can be exchanged for a heavy-duty machine gun." A machine gun, or a mortar!" Wang Ping replied immediately.

Then he told the plan of how to distribute weapons in the arsenal in his mind!
The deputy commander frowned and asked back: "Export sales, how is it possible, our own troops don't have any guns yet, how can we sell them to others, it will be poked in the back by the soldiers!"

Wang Ping quickly explained: "Chief, wars can't be counted in this way. If we don't sell guns, we won't have the money to maintain the operation of the arsenal. Excluding raw materials, the arsenal needs at least [-] oceans per month to ensure normal production. If we don't sell weapons, we only need Can the headquarters find a way to provide it!"

"But selling weapons is different. For a thousand guns plus supporting weapons and ammunition, it will definitely be no problem to sell for [-] to [-] oceans."

"With the money, the arsenal can produce more weapons, and even expand production to make up for the military expenses of the headquarters!"

"If we talk about fighting, we call it supporting war with war!"
