Starting from the bright sword to engage in military industry

"Folks, let's do it, dig the road, beat the devils! When the devils come, let's run, the devils have no way to catch up!"

"Men, women, young and old, all dig tunnels, if the devils come to catch us, let's dig tunnels!"

"The Eighth Route Army, beat the devils, good man, go to be a soldier, kill the devils, avenge blood, follow the Eighth Route Army is the way out..."

The entire city of Changzhi was in chaos, while the entire southeast of Shanxi was as busy as a stove.All kinds of slogans, all kinds of propaganda slogans, and even the eighth road art team performed on the streets of various villages and towns to promote our anti-Japanese policy.By the way, recruit some more recruits... Well, although many people think that it is time to streamline the army and streamline the administration, who cares about those main regiment leaders?

Of course, the 386th Brigade is different, because of the backing support of the arsenal, and because it has won many victories many times, there is no shortage of veterans here, and the weapons are enough to expand one or two ordinary regiments.So, let’s recruit troops, train first, and after training, either supplement the combat units of the main regiment, or add basic soldiers to the guerrillas who are training.

In short, it is better to recruit young men from the vast area of ​​southeast Shanxi as recruits than to be massacred by devils, dragged into labor, and forced into puppet soldiers, right?

Besides, the brigade commander still has to manage the Taiyue District. There are several counties here, and the entire Taiyue Mountain is within range.

So, let’s move on, the brigade commander is dying. The ammunition that the special operations team got back earlier, the batch that the brigade commander kept in the brigade headquarters, has been taken out, ready to be put into the construction of new troops and training guerrillas , the militia, and the armed forces behind enemy lines.Well, in the words of the brigade commander: "I'm having a hard time, so pull up the team first, and the little devil will send us weapons and ammunition!"

Well, we don't know if the devils sent weapons and ammunition to the 386 brigade, anyway, Hu Changyi just approved a batch of factory notes.A total of 20 rounds of 7.92 bullets and 60 rounds of 6.5 bullets, 4 military grenades, 15 militia grenades, 6 grenades, 300 grenades, 300 squad machine guns, and 600 semi-automatics factory.

This batch of weapons and ammunition is said to be handed over to the headquarters, and then specifically, it will be handed over to the 129th Division for use.As for how much can the brigade commander get?Hu Changyi said he didn't know and shouldn't ask.

But what do you think?Now, the 129th Division has more than 8 main troops, and the total strength of various troops is 10,000+. How to divide this thing?The troop base is too large.

"Hey... how about streamlining the army and simplifying the administration? If you give 10 bullets to recruits, it won't be as effective as giving 5 bullets to veteran precision shooters, right?" Hu Changyi sighed to Minister Zhang.

"So? Without the foundation of recruits, where do veterans come from? Who didn't come from recruits?" Minister Zhang replied.

"Forget it, I can't explain the truth clearly. Everyone likes veterans, but they have to go the way of recruits. I just hope that recruits will die less and grow into veterans. By the way, Minister Zhang, the 120th Division How is the construction of the arsenal in the northwest and central Hebei? I can produce two bullet production lines by the end of this month, what do you think?" Hu Changyi asked.

"It's time to increase their bullet production capacity! In addition, Jizhong has already been able to make explosives and propellants by itself. In this way, give them bullet production lines, and they will be able to replenish themselves. In this way, The pressure on our arsenal and the transportation can be reduced a lot. Just right now, the devils are shrinking in the big attack, and it’s just a good time to transport." Minister Zhang said.

"Since that's the case, why not just disassemble the production line of our own bullets that are still in use, and then send them over. If they are gone, we can just re-produce them." Hu Changyi suggested.

"That's a good idea! Send it to Jizhong. The northwestern part of Shanxi is close to northern Shaanxi, but it's too far away from us. There are also a lot of areas where the Jinsui army and devils are in the middle, so it's inconvenient to transport. They owe their ammunition first." , Wait until the end of the year. Kid, tell you to make you happy, we got two bullet production lines from Maoxiong, and 1 rifles." Minister Zhang said.

"This...couldn't be that the bears don't want it, and put it in the warehouse to eat ashes, right? The rifle is also an old-fashioned Mosin Nagant rifle?" Hu Changyi asked.

"Are you still not satisfied with this? What's the matter with eating ashes? Don't look like a big bear, but he is really careful in his work. The equipment is well maintained and can be used after adjustment. Although they are all old Equipment, but once it is produced, it is no problem to support a division. It is the rifle, although it is a little less, but can we slowly replace it here. A box of penicillin is enough to replace a lot.”

"Boy, this drug is really huge profits, the kind that makes everyone envious! Fortunately, we withstood the pressure and kept saying that we got it from abroad and there was no leak. Only you and me will know about it .As for our wounded soldiers who needed medicine, we just told them it was an anti-inflammatory medicine, and didn’t even let them know.”

"Well, speaking of it, our strength is still too weak, and we dare not release good things. Also, we must guard against those who hold the name of righteousness but don't do business!" Minister Zhang said.

"This, we understand! In addition, if the organization needs it, I will forget about anti-inflammatory drugs. Right now, I'm just thinking about making weapons and fighting devils." Hu Changyi said.

"That's not necessary, if you have problems? Haha, none of us can keep it! Well, you continue to study your blueprints, so it's decided to dismantle our new and self-made bullet production lines, A part of it was sent to the central part of Hebei, and part of it was sent to the Laogou arsenal of the 8th Detachment. Laogou can be used as a support point in southern Hebei and northern Henan." Minister Zhang said.

"Haha, that's fine. In this way, we can just take care of our 129th Division. If we divide them out in this way, our logistics pressure will be reduced a lot, and the electricity will also be saved." Hu Changyi said.

"Electricity... can the electric arc furnace technology you mentioned work?" Minister Zhang said.

"I don't know. It was translated from the devil. What can I know?" Hu Changyi said.

"You... okay, just treat it as if you translated it from the devil." Minister Zhang said.

"Originally, I can understand weapons and bullet production lines. We have a foundation for this, but I can understand those things? Only a little devil can make them?" Hu Changyi looked innocent.

"Okay...you continue to work on your weapons. Is this bazooka really that easy to use?" Minister Zhang asked again.
