Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 281 Weighing the pros and cons
The chief has many years of combat experience. He has seen all kinds of storms and waves on the battlefield, and he has long cultivated the courage of "the mountain collapses in front of him without changing his face".

However, when he heard that Chu Yunfei was willing to exchange the bullet production line for the bazooka technology, he couldn't sit still, got up and walked around anxiously in the headquarters.

It's no wonder the chief is not calm, the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat!

The chief has dealt with Yan Laoxi for a long time, and he knows that Yan Laoxi's Taiyuan Arsenal is not just a joke.

It has a history of more than [-] years since its establishment, and it is also known as the three major arsenals of the Republic of China together with Shenyang Arsenal and Hanyang Arsenal.

More importantly, Taiyuan Armory is different from other arsenals. Its own system produces Jin-made Type [-] rifles, which are imitated from the devil's [-]-piece cover.

The rifle uses the 6.5-style, and the bullets are of course the [-]mm rifle bullets that are common to the [-] cover.

And the Eighth Route Army has a large number of [-] caps seized from the devils.

So, what does it mean to have such a bullet production line?
It means that the Eighth Route Army can produce its own original bullets!
From being able to pick up bullet casings for reinstallation to being able to produce a complete set by ourselves, this is a big leap forward. Not only can it solve the problem of getting stuck in the neck, but it can also greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the troops!
However, giving the bazooka technology to Chu Yunfei meant that the Eighth Route Army lost its rare technological advantage.

After thinking about it for a while, the chief stopped and ordered the guards: "Get Zhang Wanhe and that little Northeast right away! Move fast!"

Soon, Wang Xuexin walked into the headquarters with Zhang Wanhe.

Wang Xuexin met Zhang Wanhe on the way there, when Zhang Wanhe had just descended to the foot of the mountain.

"To the headquarters?" Zhang Wanhe asked.

"Yes!" Wang Xuexin replied: "The chief asked me to go!"

"Didn't you call me too?" Zhang Wanhe said with a smile: "Calling both of us at the same time, I guess it's about asking about jumping thunder. Is there a need to ask? Last time I made a great contribution to beating devils! Surely it will work." Okay!"

Zhang Wanhe discussed with Wang Xuexin the benefits of jumping mines along the way, and even thought about how to report to the chief.

But Zhang Wanhe guessed wrong this time.

After arriving at the headquarters, the chief suppressed his excitement and asked the two to sit down at the table, and the guards filled them with a cup of hot water... This is the habit of the base area. Filled with hot water can not only quench your thirst but also warm your hands.

Then the chief said: "There is news from Li Yunlong that the Jinsui army intends to exchange bullet production lines for our rocket launcher technology!"

Zhang Wanhe's hands trembled, and the hot water in the tooth cup spilled out.

He shook his hand in pain, but asked in his mouth: "Chief, are you talking about the production line for producing rifle bullets? Type six or nine?"

The chief nodded with a smile and said: "If it's another production line, we don't consider it and I don't feel embarrassed!"

Although Wang Xuexin thought it was a good thing, he was not as excited as the chief and Zhang Wanhe.

They are like the ecstasy of a poor man who suddenly finds a treasure when it comes to bullets.

But for Wang Xuexin, a modern person, the treasure in the eyes of others is just a small patch, a production line, how big a deal is it?

The chief said: "First of all, I want to know how useful this production line can be if we get it!"

From these words, it can be seen that the chief is maintaining calm and rationality, or it can be said that he is trying to maintain it.

This makes sense. If the production line can’t function, for example, there is no raw material, no one to maintain it, or the output can’t be guaranteed, etc., then the production line is just a decoration, and it’s not worthwhile to replace it with technology.

Zhang Wanhe thought for a while, and then answered cautiously: "The raw materials are not a problem for the time being. We have stored a lot of shell casings and warheads. It is estimated that millions of rounds of bullets can be produced with these as raw materials!"

It turned out that in order to be able to produce reloaded bullets, the Eighth Route Army had the habit of collecting bullets and shell casings at ordinary times. To be precise, it was discipline.

However, not all of these cartridge cases can be used. Some are cracked, some are severely deformed, and some have gaps. On average, there will be five substandard cartridge cases for each reloaded bullet produced.

It's a pity to lose these shell casings. After all, they are brass that is in short supply in the military industry, and they don't know how to produce them. Of course, they can't be used for guerrilla warfare...

So the military industry thought of a way to bury these shell casings on the spot, and wait until the bullets can be produced or these waste shell casings and warheads are needed, and then they will be dug up and reused.

Up to now, even Zhang Wanhe himself doesn't know how many of them have been buried in the ground, and the production of millions of rounds of ammunition is only a small amount.

"In addition!" Zhang Wanhe added: "For a long time, only one-fifth to one-sixth of the bullet casings picked up by our army can be made into reloaded bullets. But if there is a bullet production line, the utilization rate can be increased to Four out of five!"

The waste of used bullet casings is melted and recast, and the waste of raw materials during production needs to be considered.

"Also!" Zhang Wanhe said: "The bullets produced by the production line are pointed bullets. Even if there are not enough copper bullets, steel bullets are much better than the original steel round bullets!"

The chief nodded: "So, this is not just an increase in quantity, but also a qualitative improvement. It is a leap in combat effectiveness!"

"Yes!" Zhang Wanhe said: "As for maintenance, maintenance and spare parts, we can ask for them when exchanging! Let them send a few technicians to maintain for a period of time, we will learn from them, and then ask them to provide Some spare parts!"

"Yes, if they don't agree, we won't change it!" The chief said: "Now the initiative is in our hands, and they can't help but disagree!"

After a pause, the chief said awkwardly: "However, selling the bazooka technology is also a headache! Not to mention the other things, the grain business is gone!"

If the Jinsui army bought the technology and could make it themselves, of course they didn't need to buy it from the Eighth Route Army, so food became a problem.

That alone is a tough choice:

Do you want bullets or food?

The former can kill the enemy on the battlefield, while the latter ensures that he will not starve to death, both are necessary.

But I can only choose one of the two...

"Secondly." The chief frowned as he spoke: "It would be fine if this technology is only in the hands of the Jinsui Army, but there are many traitors in the Jinsui Army, and Yan Laoxi also has contacts with devils. If the devils learn went……"

Needless to say next.

From the perspective of national righteousness, it is not impossible for the Jinsui army and even the stubborn army to learn this technology, because they are all enemies of the devils, and generally speaking, it is beneficial to China.

But if you let the devil learn it, and the bazooka is cheap and can be mass-produced in a short period of time.

It is conceivable that with the devil's industrial capabilities, he may produce more equipment troops and deal with the Chinese army in turn.

If so, then things are not very good!

At this time, Wang Xuexin, who had been silent all this time, interjected: "Chief, let's not worry about this! Devils can't learn it, because they already know it!"
