Starting from the bright sword to engage in military industry

Chapter 468

In Jiuzhai, the arsenal resumed production after a few days of annual vacation.In the first month of the year, Minister Zhang asked Hu Changyi to start the semi-automatic rifle production line that had been sealed up.

"Minister Zhang, are you sure that it will have enough bullets to make it semi-automatically? Isn't that like your style?" In the office, Hu Changyi and Minister Zhang sat opposite each other, each with a big tea mug, and the tea left in it. .

"I know what the heads of the group are talking about! Doesn't it mean that I am like a local rich man in Shanxi, who is reluctant to send something down if he has something! But our little wealth can't be completely consumed Right?" Minister Zhang said with a smile, but he was not angry.

"Then how many semi-automatics should we build this time? Is this what you mean, or the head of the headquarters?" Hu Changyi asked.

"This was decided at a meeting during the Chinese New Year! This time, within this year, at least 3000 semi-automatics will be supplied to the troops, and the maximum will be 4000!" Minister Zhang said a number, and looked at Hu Changyi after speaking.

"3000 to 4000, this production capacity is no problem! But the headquarters needs so many semi-automatics, is this going to use semi-automatics to form two main groups? Then equip them with Kailari and continuous machine guns, grenade launchers, and mortars. Cannon Company... Good guy, the firepower of these two regiments is strong enough!" Hu Changyi said.

"Stop, what are you thinking, boy? If we can really form these two regiments, then we might as well just get a heavy fire brigade! With a scale of more than 7000 people, put all the mountain artillery and infantry guns in, plus a few more Machine gun company, transport company, engineer company, cavalry battalion." Minister Zhang said.

"Yes, it is absolutely possible to build a heavy firepower brigade! Our 82 mortars have also been put into production. We can have 12 mortars this month, 15 mortars next month, and 200 82 mortar mortars by the end of the year. One regiment has one mortar Company, a company has 10 mortars, which is definitely enough!" Hu Changyi urged aside.

"Stop it, old man! It's the end of the new year, don't dream about it, don't even think about the heavy firepower brigade! You want our Eighth Route Army's equipment to defeat the little devil, don't you?" Minister Zhang said with a look of "I see through your heart and spleen" Lung and Kidney looked at Hu Changyi with an expression.

"Isn't that exactly what we're working towards! I'm looking forward to the day when all the main regiments of our Eighth Route will use semi-automatic combat. Ordinary infantry semi-automatic, squad precision shooter commanders use semi-automatic with sniper scopes, and the squad's machine gun team, There are grenadier groups, there are machine gun platoons in the company, 60 mortar mortars, 82 mortar mortars in the battalion, and 82 mortar companies and even larger caliber mortars in the regiment! There are also rocket launchers..." Hu Changyi began to imagine.

"Okay, stop! If you really have that equipment, if you really can guarantee the supply of ammunition, I can wake up laughing from my dreams! With such equipment, our 30 Eighth Route Army can drive the devils out of North China, and even out of China! You boy... ..." Minister Zhang shook his head and smiled.

"But to be honest, Minister Zhang, the equipment of our guerrilla brigade can be upgraded to such a level, right?" Hu Changyi asked cautiously.

"I already know what score you play! Do you want to experiment with your guerrilla brigade again?" Minister Zhang said with an expression that I knew your thoughts a long time ago.

"Hey, I can't hide anything from you! Didn't you just receive the battle report from our brigade! Good guy, our equipment has already crushed the little devil under certain circumstances! I thought, why don't we just give The equipment of my guerrilla brigade is unified? At least bolt-action rifles are not used in combat squads."

"Look at our current team's firepower. There are not many bolt-action rifles, and they are still used by recruits. This time down the mountain, the recruits have become veterans. Is it time to improve the level of weapons? Minister Zhang, the head of the headquarters is guerrilla against us. Are you satisfied with the combat effectiveness of the brigade?" Hu Changyi looked at Minister Zhang and asked.

"Satisfied, very satisfied! The deputy commander-in-chief fired a few shots with a semi-automatic gun at your brigade headquarters, and he is very satisfied with this gun. The deputy commander-in-chief said that the continuous machine gun can completely replace the status of the second and fourth civilians. Ordinary infantrymen The battalion only needs to be equipped with continuous machine guns, and the heavy machine guns should be placed directly under the regiment.”

"Okay, looking at your appearance, you must have some new ideas about your guerrilla brigade. If you think about it, give me a report. Now, your task is to ensure the production of the arsenal and ensure the completion of quality and quantity." The task of the superior! By the way, this year's bullet production equipment, first build a 6.5mm bullet production line. The newly added 4000 semi-automatics are bullet-eating kings!" said Minister Zhang.

"Yes, I promise! Now, the bullet production line we seized on the train years ago is running. The workers are shifting day and night, and this line can produce 4000 rounds of bullets a day. If there are a few more semi-manual production lines, then It is still possible to guarantee the combat of these [-] rifles." Hu Changyi said.

"That has to count the captured ammunition and reloaded ammunition! You have to make sure you don't fight every day!" Minister Zhang said.

"I read the battle report. Although there are battles every day in our anti-sweeping raids, not every team fights every day. In this way, the supply of ammunition can still be guaranteed! Especially, the fight is fast, the devil's With less ammunition consumption, we captured more!" Hu Changyi said.

"You boy... you think so beautifully, you kid is not made of mud, just stand there and let you fight! Fighting requires sacrifice, and the soldiers are fighting with their lives! You are also a fighter, that's it Don't you need me to tell you?" Minister Zhang said.

"So, give the soldiers the best weapons, and use the firepower of the weapons to make up for the consumption of personnel! Soldiers are more expensive than fine ones!" Hu Changyi said.

"That also depends on how many people your opponent has? The little devils have hundreds of thousands of troops in North China, and they are still recruiting puppet troops. Our number is small, how can we fight them? There are too many people, at least when fighting bayonets, we still have to fight against them." You can enjoy it," Minister Zhang said.

"You're right. In a place as big as North China, the lack of manpower is really a problem!" Hu Changyi also agreed with Minister Zhang.That is, the eight-way expansion is too fast, so fast that there are not enough veterans to lead the recruits, and there is not enough time for the recruits to grow.

For many soldiers, it only takes a few days from joining the army to going to the battlefield.Even their comrades-in-arms gave their lives before they remembered their names.In such a situation, can the chiefs not know?But what can I do?If the devils want to fight, they must resist!

Therefore, Hu Changyi felt that it was better to provide the soldiers with more and better weapons as much as possible.

At least, the pilot unit of the guerrilla brigade, through these few battles, has shown the chiefs another feasible plan.

Minister Zhang likes to chat with Hu Changyi very much, which is another pleasure for him after work or at work.

In the eyes of Minister Zhang, Hu Changyi is young, energetic, and often has some messy thoughts in his head.Although some ideas seem naive, and some ideas seem difficult to realize, but if you think about it carefully, it is a good reference direction.Sometimes, you can also learn from it.

The point is, seeing Hu Changyi is like seeing his own growing up child.Although he has little experience in dealing with things, he is always full of good expectations for the future.

It was just a new year, and the arsenal was not too busy, so Minister Zhang chatted with Hu Changyi for an hour.Of course, during the period, it was inevitable that Hu Changyi would reveal the idea of ​​getting Hu Changyi to start a family quickly, but Hu Changyi prevaricated it.

Of course, Minister Zhang also stated his semi-automatic distribution plan: distributed to each regiment.

Minister Zhang revealed that the three main divisions are all expanding, and there are more and more combat units at the regiment level, and the performance of the original precision shooters in their respective units is also impressive enough.Therefore, whether it is a new team leader or a veteran team leader, there is a strong request to train some accurate shooters.

Even if there is no time for training, at least make sure there are enough semi-automatic rifles in the team.Therefore, this is the production task.

There are up to 4000 semi-automatic rifles, which is a lot at first glance.But it's really hard to say how much a group can get.

Not to mention others, Hu Changyi knows that next year when the Hundred Regiments War will take place, more than 100 regiments of the Eighth Route Army will go into battle.It is divided according to more than 100 regiments, and a regiment can have at most 30 semi-automatic equipment.This number is not enough for one class, and it is even less than the number of Qilali.

"This kid, it's okay! I didn't think about making some guns anymore, I just guaranteed the existing gun models. If we really get some guns with high firepower and high ammunition consumption, we really can't guarantee the production of bullets!" After leaving Hu Changyi's office, Minister Zhang nodded in satisfaction.

"We still have to quickly produce our own sniper scopes! If we really have enough production capacity for sniper scopes, not to mention 4x, 6x, and 8x, we can have enough 3x, and our semi-automatic will not be in the same position." So embarrassing!" Hu Changyi was thinking about how to raise the status of semi-automatic.

In fact, it is equivalent to the crooked hands of the devil brigade, and the semi-automatic firepower is not that weak.Although the devil's crooked handle is called a machine gun, when shooting, it is only a little faster than semi-automatic, and it mainly relies on burst shooting.

Moreover, the devil's crooked handle can only shoot 200 rounds of bullets at most in normal combat, and the barrel will fail due to overwhelm.As far as this is concerned, it still has to be said that there will be no other failures until 200 rounds are fired.

Well, the key to victory in the devil's battle is actually their grenadier.After destroying the grenade, the Jinsui army can crush the devils if they are close to the crooked handle.

And if the semi-automatics of Jiuzhai Arsenal have sniper scopes, then the grenadier soldiers and machine gunners, including the devil's 500 heavy machine gunners, can be killed at a distance of 600 meters to [-] meters.If that's the case, the precision shooter rifle will be offered up as a treasure by the regiment leaders.

It's a pity that the technology has been exchanged, and the glass factory has also been established. It is still unknown how far away the sniper scope is.

"Let me write a report... about the organization of the guerrilla brigade in the fine seed field..." Hu Changyi took out a small notebook, and really planned to change the organization of the guerrilla brigade.

In fact, it is not a major change, it is to add some auxiliary combat units and complete the equipment.

The so-called auxiliary combat unit, he wanted to set up a separate logistics support unit.It is required that this unit can guarantee the supply of the combat needs of the two battalions within a range of 50 kilometers around Jiuzhaigou.Including eating and drinking, including ammunition consumption, including gun consumption and transport of wounded soldiers, etc.

Then, each company must have a special transport platoon to help transport ammunition, the wounded, and supplies.In addition, a mortar platoon must be added to each battalion to ensure that there are 4 to 6 82 mortars.Then, a dedicated mortar company was established as a regiment-level artillery support unit.

In addition, after combat growth, the infantry squad can be reduced. The number of combatants in each squad is 12, and the rest of the soldiers are placed in other units as the backbone.

If long-range combat is required, each platoon can add a separate 9-man ammunition team to carry ammunition exclusively.

This idea is actually very good, but it needs to be expanded to increase the number of soldiers in each battalion, and the guerrilla brigade also needs to expand in size.After the expansion, a battalion faced the devil's brigade-level combat unit, and the company faced the squadron.

The problem is: the guerrilla brigade does not have qualified 82 mortar artillery, there are not enough semi-automatics, and there are not so many soldiers...well, three nos.

Weapons are easy to deal with. While making semi-automatic weapons, quietly make two or three hundred more, which is completely fine for ordinary infantry squads to change their equipment. 82 forces, the guerrilla brigade is almost equipped with 22 doors, and the logistical pressure is too great if there are more.

The key is still artillery, where to get it?Now I hope that the soldiers who follow the pillar can learn real skills, and I hope that the division headquarters will hold an artillery training class.If it is opened, Hu Changyi will train more artillery for the guerrilla brigade even if he sells the iron.

In Minister Zhang's office, a brief expansion plan was handed over to Minister Zhang. Hu Changyi poured water from the kettle himself, and he didn't see anything.

"Is there any big problem with your plan? I thought you were going to play something, just to expand the enrollment, right?" Minister Zhang said.

"Yes, with the current two battalions as the main combat units, the newly established logistics support unit can be completed by temporarily recruiting militias from various villages. The main problem is the training of artillery. Anyway, the size of my guerrilla brigade is controlled at a maximum of 1500 to 1600. With [-] people, we can’t afford to support any more!” Hu Changyi said.

"Okay, this time the requirements for soldiers don't seem to need very good soldiers, right? There just happened to be a group of veterans who were injured and recovered. The number was more than 100. They couldn't stand long-distance combat. Let's put them in your logistics support battalion as the main cadres! If there is still something lacking, you just need to recruit new recruits, after the new year, there are qualified ones!"

Minister Zhang is planning to draw the younger generation from the villages around Jiuzhai into the guerrilla brigade one by one!
"You are amazing! I want veterans, so let's recruit new recruits! This time, 300 is enough." Hu Changyi said.
