Starting from the bright sword to engage in military industry

Chapter 420 Chapter 419, 82 force also created
"Oh, my Uncle Zhang, what have you been up to this month? You can't see anyone in the bullet workshop all day long, or go to Licheng for a meeting, how can you care about me?" Hu Changyi said.

"Aren't I focusing on the point! No matter how many guns you make, it's useless if you don't have a supply of bullets. Okay, what about your 82 grenade? Did you really make it? That's a big deal. With mortars, we The main force of the group dares to face the little devil's brigade head-on!" said Minister Zhang.

"I copied 4 of them in total. This is because there is no mortar sight, so I just need to make them according to the original version. In fact, we can make them a long time ago, but the production of shells can't keep up, and the steel is also unqualified. .” Hu Changyi said.

"Well, I know that the qualified barrel steel produced by Luda has come out, and the grenade of your grenade can also be mass-produced. Is this the reason why you copied it?" Director Zhang asked.

"Hey, you still know me well. Minister Zhang, after this adjustment of the industrial structure, we don't need to make rifles. Is the next step going to release Min Er Si?" Hu Changyi asked.

"What? You don't like this heavy machine gun anymore? What do you think?" Minister Zhang asked.

"Min [-] is too heavy, takes up a lot of manpower, and it is inconvenient to transfer in battle. Except for the advantage of range, the rest is nothing. Now, don't we have this? Try to replace Min [-]. ?” Hu Changyi suggested.

"Well, it doesn't matter what you say, and I can't say it, let's wait for the chiefs to decide! However, with this dual-use machine gun, at least the demand for heavy machine guns is not so urgent. Don't just talk, what about the 82 pressure? "Minister Zhang is impatient.

"Here it is!" Hu Changyi opened a wooden cabinet, revealing the 4 82mm doors and several boxes of shells inside.

"You kid, you're still hiding it! Let's go to the shooting range and experiment!" Minister Zhang said excitedly.

"Well, there's no rush to go to the shooting range. I've made an appointment with Captain Li of the new regiment and Captain Zhao of the supplementary regiment. They will meet at the shooting range the morning after tomorrow to experiment together! However, we can try to shoot a few shots first." Hu Changyi Said.

"Then try it, you have created this light, how can you do it without live ammunition? Come a few people and move things!" Minister Zhang shouted.

Soon, more than a dozen fighters walked into the workshop, carrying an 82-inch percussion machine, 2 consecutive machine guns, 3 boxes of 500 rounds of ammunition, and 2 boxes of 4 rounds of shells and left.Hu Changyi and Minister Zhang also followed the soldiers to the shooting range.

On the shooting range, two continuous machine guns were mounted on the chopping board used for the experiment, and two groups of experimenters took their positions respectively.On the side of the machine gun, a long chain of 150 rounds of ammunition was thrown directly on the chopping board, and the long ones simply hung on the side.

"Drip..." Hu Changyi personally blew the whistle for live ammunition training.

"Da da da... da da da da... da da da..." The two machine guns fired at the same time, the muzzle flames kept flashing in front, and the shell casings were thrown out from the ejection window under the gun body, ding Clanking on the chopping board.

At the same time, the long ammunition belt began to move, and the other side of the machine gun had an extra ammunition belt for empty bullets, and it gradually lengthened.

In front, the human-shaped grass target 400 meters away is now in a state of weeds flying everywhere.As the bullets swished through, the grass target was pierced and scattered, and then the scattered wheat straw flew with the wind.

"Minister Zhang, how about this suppression firepower?" Hu Changyi asked loudly.

"It's not bad, this gun is easy to use in the face of the devil's group charge!" Minister Zhang shouted.

"Change the barrel..." After one ammunition belt was fired, the experimenters cooperated with each other to replace the scorching barrel, and then a new ammunition belt was connected and continued to be fired.

Soon, the new ammunition belt was also finished, and the live ammunition shooting was over.In the opened ammunition box, there is only one 150-round ammunition chain and one 50-round short ammunition chain left.

Of course, this is not the point. The point is that after the live ammunition test, the newly-made continuous machine gun is not weaker than the firepower of the Min [-], and it is very suitable for the infantry company to be used as a suppression weapon.

This is nonsense, this gun was originally called a continuous machine gun, and it was a model between a large-caliber heavy machine gun and a squad machine gun.As for whether it can take the place of Min Er Si, it is a matter of opinion.

But at least, there are advantages to equipping this gun: the weight is tens of kilograms lighter, and it is easy to carry and transfer. It is by no means a live target that is fixed in one place and difficult to move.

In fact, according to Hu Changyi's meaning, if there are enough sniper scopes, then a large number of semi-automatic sniper rifles can be produced to cooperate with this continuous machine gun to fight, and the Min Ersi can be completely eliminated from the equipment sequence.

Well, that's what he planned to do on the side of the guerrilla brigade. Didn't you see that Min Ersi hasn't been equipped yet? That's what it means.

But the actual situation is: Hu Changyi's meaning can also be realized on the side of the guerrilla brigade, or it can be realized by adding a few main groups.After all, the Eighth Route Army is still in short supply of weapons!How rich is this, so that people don't regard Min [-] as a heavy weapon?

"Report, the new light machine gun live ammunition training is complete, please give instructions!" The experimenters reported.

"Comrades have worked hard, take the weapons and ammunition down first! Mortar experimenters, come on!" Hu Changyi saluted the experimenters and ordered.

"Yes, factory manager!" The experimenters saluted and replaced.

"Minister Zhang, when the 82 experiment is over, I want to ask you something." Hu Changyi said.

"You want the guerrilla brigade to go down the mountain to fight the anti-mopping up?" Minister Zhang guessed it without asking.

"Yeah, it's been three months, and it's time for the recruits to see the blood! I think our guerrilla brigade can be incorporated into the new regiment's combat sequence. Even if there is no formal battle, it's good for them to feel The atmosphere of the battlefield. It is best to help clean up the battlefield and see the dead." Hu Changyi said.

"You boy... let me report! Well, they are ready, let's blow the whistle." Minister Zhang said.

"Drip..." Hu Changyi glanced at the mortar experiment group and blew his whistle.

"Let it go!" Hearing the whistle, the artillery experimenter, the gunner, shouted loudly.

After he finished shouting, the second gunner let go of the shell in his hand and let it fall from the barrel.

"Boom..." The shell flew out.

"Chirp..." The shells flew towards the distant hills with howling noises.

"Pfft..." After a dull explosion, a large cloud of white smoke appeared on the top of the mountain, and then spread.

"What's in your experimental bomb?" Minister Zhang put down his binoculars and asked curiously.

"Quicklime! This is easier to get, and you can easily see the point of impact even from a distance!" Hu Changyi said.

"I saw it. The impact point of this shell is 20 meters away from the set target, right?" Minister Zhang said.

"It's okay, it's still within the explosion radius of the shell, so it can be considered an effective landing point for the target." Hu Changyi said.

"That's...success?" Minister Zhang's mouth began to curl up.

"Of course it succeeded!" Hu Changyi also put on a smile.

From now on, the Eighth Route Army will have its own 82 forces available!
