Chapter 324 The barrel is chrome-plated!
The factors that cause the main problems of highway construction projects are obvious. In the final analysis, the development level of productive forces is insufficient, and there is no matching industrial base as support.

The production plan before the war and the production plan during the war have been in progress for more than two months. The industrial level of the base area today is very different from that of two months ago. It has never been able to produce industrial products and the military industry can only recover. Loading bullets has now involved various industrial products such as sulfuric acid products, propellants and explosives, steel, ore, cement, rotor spindles and blades, and the military industry has reached the height of independent production of 60mm mortars.

Progress is there, but it's not enough.

The industrial level of the base area is still weak, the power machinery industry category is completely blank, there is no technical personnel training mechanism, and there are many problems...

"About the two problems faced by highway construction projects, which have an important relationship with the technical field, we still have to rely on Red Star tractors to solve the problems from the root cause. This matter cannot be delayed. Yu Hua, I will take over the tractor project for the time being. You are in charge of the test furnace for the first time. Smelting trials and trial production."

At this time, a voice broke the silence of the conference room. Zhuang Qianding looked serious and serious, and said bluntly to Yu Hua: "I will build 12 horizontal bar diesel engines here first, and wait for you to come back to build a prototype car to improve efficiency."

He doesn't care about organizational issues, but when it comes to technical issues, we must strike hard.

Hearing this, Chen Kang opened his mouth to say something, but in the face of this completely powerless technical problem, he could only choose to shut up and keep quiet.

Talk less, listen more and take notes.

"Yes, I have no opinion, but will this affect the 10MW turbo-generator unit project?" Yu Hua nodded when he heard the words, and asked softly without any objection.

"No, the diesel engine design drawings have been completed, all I have to do is to process the parts, it doesn't take much effort."

Zhuang Qianding waved his hand, looked at Lu Yuan with both eyes, and continued: "Chief Lu, I think so about the serious shortage of cement production. There are technologies for cement plants with an annual output of 50 tons, but not In reality, there is a lack of technical talents, and there is no relevant production experience in managing large and medium-sized rotary kilns. I think that we will not launch a cement plant based on large and medium-sized rotary kiln technology for the time being, but will build multiple micro-cement plants with an annual output of [-] tons in batches and The vertical earthen kiln is the main one, first focus on output, and then focus on quality."

The cement industry is completely different from the machinery manufacturing industry. As long as the cement produced meets the minimum standards and is available effectively, it will not be a problem.

"Professor, continue." Lu Yuan took out the notebook he carried with him, took a pen in his right hand and quickly wrote, recording key content, studying like a class student, respectfully.

"This plan cooperates with the benchmark transportation capacity provided by Red Star tractor, and strives to achieve the goal of increasing the daily cement output by 300 tons on the existing basis within one and a half months. Experienced and skilled workers will lay the foundation for the increase in cement production in the future." Zhuang Qianding, from the perspective of an industry planner, gave production indicators and related plans: "One year later, we will strive to achieve the total annual cement output of 30 tons. Section Chief Lu, what do you think?"

In one and a half months, the daily output will increase by 300 tons, which is the initial goal of Zhuang Qianding.

Cement, this strategically important material, has a wide range of applications, such as civil construction, water conservancy projects, various permanent military fortifications, etc., whether it is a thermal power plant that is still being designed, or a In the war of resistance, no cement is needed.

You can produce as much of this stuff as you can, not too much.

What do I think?
Where can I dare to point fingers...

Hearing Zhuang Qianding's overall target plan of 30 tons of annual output, Lu Yuan was stunned and shocked. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he could only say nothing, with a wry smile on his face: "Professor, I don't have any Question, I don’t know if the Public Works Division can accomplish this goal.”

The General Affairs Section is only responsible for the operation and use, and the construction and production of the factory are entirely undertaken by the Public Works Section. He has no opinion whether the short-term goal of producing 30 tons per day or the long-term goal of producing [-] tons per year.

Although, Lu Yuan himself could not offer any constructive opinions, not even questioning.

If you don't understand, don't question it. Since Professor Zhuang Qianding can put forward this goal, it means that it can be achieved.

Professor Zhuang Qianding's speech is absolutely true. This is the consensus reached by the senior officials of the Military Industry Bureau. If you really want to question it from a technical point of view, only Yu Hua is qualified to say this.

Lu Yuan secretly glanced at Yu Hua opposite, only to see Yu Hua's face full of seriousness and approval...

"The Public Works Division promises to complete the mission!" As Chen Kang and the crowd gathered their eyes, Zhao Shu, the Works Division Chief, immediately stood up and responded loudly, giving the Public Works Division's attitude.

It is impossible to be afraid. Although the annual output target of 30 tons of cement is extremely scary, Zhao Shu believes in himself, in all the soldiers in the engineering department, and even more in Zhuang Qianding, the leader of the highest science and technology group.

Pointless?

This does not exist for Professor Zhuang.

Most importantly, Yu Hua did not raise any objections.

"Okay, the two issues of the highway construction project will be dealt with in this way. We will discuss any issues in the future. Hu, it's time for you. In view of the objective problems, you can simply report the current situation of the Ordnance Engineering Department." Chen Kang saw this and was satisfied. Nodding, he motioned Zhao Shu to sit down, and after making a decision, he looked at Hu Zhigang, the head of the ordnance engineering section, and said.

The objective fact that the production resources of the Military Industry Bureau is mainly inclined to industrial construction is here. Chen Kang's requirements for the ordnance industry are not high, and he does not ask for a high output, as long as it is stable.

"The Ordnance Engineering Department has recently increased production steadily, strictly abides by the production system and quality inspection standards formulated by the highest scientific group, and produces various types of weapons and ammunition for the troops with guaranteed quality and quantity. The daily output of 31mm Mauser rifle ammunition is 10 rounds, a total of 7.92 rounds. The special task force of the headquarters sent people to learn the manual processing technology of fixed-loaded ammunition. It has 57 human-powered lathes, with a daily output of about 2400 rounds. The daily output of M1.3-style wooden handle grenades is 3 There are 700 24-year-type 800mm mortar shells per day, 37 civilian 60-type 200mm mortar shells per day, and 82 cast-iron landmines per day."

Hu Zhigang nodded, facing the crowd, telling the current situation of his ordnance department like a few treasures: "In terms of weapons, the designed daily output of 60mm mortars is 15, but due to the insufficient supply of qualified gun barrels, the actual daily output is 4. There are 6 mortars in the barrel. The official rifle project in China has completed the drawings and entered the prototype gun trial production process. The workers used the vertical deep hole drilling machine to process the blank gun holes, and then processed according to the broach cutting method provided by Professor Zhuang. Rifling, it is expected that the first official rifle in Liushugou will be produced in three days."

The official rifle in the Liushugou brand.

Hearing this title, everyone laughed inexplicably and looked at each other with smiles in their eyes. Zhongzheng Benzheng from Nanjing would never know that his proud Zhongzheng rifle will soon be used in Shaanxi, which is like an industrial island. North re-engraved.

Looking forward, along with Hu Zhigang's report on the recent development of the ordnance engineering department, everyone who was born in the military is full of expectations, and the problem of ammunition supply that has long hindered the troops has already seen the dawn of removal from the root level.

兵工科7.92×57毫米毛瑟步枪弹日产2400发，总部特务团日产700发，总共3100发！
This is the real fixed-load ammunition delivered by the Nissan 3100, and it is by no means a reloading ammunition with extremely poor performance and quality.

In addition to the most important bullets, there are also 60mm mortars and the upcoming mid-formal rifle. The weapons and equipment can be produced independently in the true sense, and are no longer restricted by anyone.

Before the change, they didn't even dare to think about it.

When this most difficult period passes, the industrial construction goals are completed, and all production resources are transferred to military production, such a picture...

A beauty that cannot be described in words.

"I forgot to say before, in fact, you can use the vertical deep hole drilling machine as training equipment, try to train as many workers as possible to master the deep hole drilling technology, it is better for people to wait for the equipment, not for the equipment to wait for people, after a while, you can build a batch of stand type deep-hole turntable to increase the production of medium and formal rifles." Zhuang Qianding put forward his own suggestion.

Would you rather people wait for equipment than equipment wait for people?
"Yes, I'll make arrangements immediately after I go back!" Hu Zhigang was stunned when he heard these words, and he came to his senses as if he had been enlightened, and understood the meaning of Professor Zhuang Qianding's suggestion.

"Senior Hu, how is the electroplating workshop I planned earlier?" At this time, Yu Hua, who was listening to the report quietly, suddenly asked aloud.

The electroplating workshop is a workshop specially set up by Yu Hua for the Ordnance Department. The so-called electroplating is the famous top processing technology - chrome plating of the gun barrel.

"It's already built." Hu Zhigang responded immediately after hearing Yu Hua's question.

"Okay." Yu Hua heard the words, nodded lightly, and stopped talking.

The core technology of chrome plating lies in the formula of chrome plating solution. Although this formula belongs to the state of rotten streets in later generations, in today's era, the chrome plating process of gun barrels is definitely one of the cutting-edge technologies that are strictly kept secret in various countries.

Yu Hua just wanted to make a fortune in silence, and let the Chinese rifles and machine guns quietly use the chrome-plating process.

It is not difficult to develop such a thing as a chrome plating solution, and it is also difficult to say that it is difficult. The genius person set up by oneself does not need to worry about others' suspicion, but the key is whether it can control this kind of cutting-edge technology that makes people jealous.

Once the news gets out, yes, Yu Hua can be 100% sure that he will encounter a series of troublesome things that should not have happened.

"Old Zhao, it's your turn." Seeing that no one was talking, Chen Kang immediately turned his attention to Zhao Shu.

"The Department of Public Works has developed rapidly recently. All German-made mechanical processing equipment has been delivered to Liushugou, and a machinery manufacturing plant has been established. There have been 20 unprocessed barrel blanks. Professor Zhuang led the workers in the factory to step up the manufacture of various parts and equipment." Zhao Shu got up and reported the current situation of the Public Works Division.

"The output of the electric furnace steel plant has increased by 30%. The average daily output of seamless steel pipes is 6 pieces. Schuler's 1-ton air hammer is being installed. The completion of the installation means that we have made another important breakthrough in the industrial field."

"The iron factory has built a second blast furnace, with a daily output of gray cast iron of 4 tons. In terms of raw materials, the first batch of magnetite concentrates with an average grade of more than 60% has been purchased from the Linfen area, with a total volume of 3 tons, at a price of 7 silver dollars per ton. The masses responded enthusiastically and the enthusiasm was very high, and we have initially established a raw material supply system in Linfen area."

"All the construction of the sulfuric acid plant has been completed, and the daily output of sulfuric acid is 21.5 tons, basically reaching the expected target, but the supply of raw materials is very tight."

"The production volume of Yanchang Oilfield remains unchanged. In order to meet the increasing demand for oil, new well exploration operations have been organized. The main goal is to achieve a daily crude oil production of more than 10 tons within two months. The Yumen Oilfield Laojunmiao has completed the preliminary infrastructure construction. Crude oil is transported to Xi'an by automobile and road, and then transferred to the base to meet the supply of oil consumption."

"As for the Yulin Iron and Steel Plant project, Deputy Team Leader Yu has already reported it, so I won't repeat it."

"The Gunpowder Division has built a new Ansai explosives factory, and the daily output has increased to 1.2 tons. The supply of cotton and toluene is relatively tight due to transportation capacity problems."

"The Mineral Resources Division has recently focused on the development of the Jingbian Copper Mine. Due to the lack of smelting equipment and transportation capacity, the daily output of brass is about 1.3 tons. The mining volume of Shenmu Coal and Iron Mine is very high. Ton."

Time passed slowly, and in the conference room, one after another sounded.

There was a consensus at this meeting that the priority of the Red Star tractor was placed second, second only to the oxygen top blowing converter project. Even with the extremely tight power supply problem, it had to be placed third.

The meeting of the Military Industry Bureau is over.

At this moment, the 48-hour countdown of the oxygen blowing furnace project has passed, and more than five hours have passed. All departments have entered the state of overloaded efficiency operation according to the general plan. For the Yanma Highway and the transportation of materials in various departments, a temporary transportation team consisting of seven trucks was formed. All members of the Machinery Manufacturing Plant of the Engineering Department completed the assembly of the three core units of the air separation equipment, and they were hoisted and loaded in turn.

In terms of security, an entire guard company of the Headquarters Guard Regiment was used, plus an additional forced mortar platoon equipped with 4 Type [-] mortars as the core equipment to arm the escort team, and checkpoints were set up in important county towns and routes along the way.

All parties work together to make sure nothing goes wrong.

The time came to six in the morning.

At dawn, a ray of dawn symbolizing hope in the distance gradually appeared and sprinkled on this plateau.

In front of the gate of Liushugou Industrial Zone, seven trucks loaded with goods were arranged in order. After the last round of inspections before departure, they were confirmed to be correct. Under the attention of all the people, the entire team set foot on the road heading north.

go ahead!

go ahead!

go ahead!

Countdown - 42 hours and 35 minutes.
