Shenyang Arsenal was established by Fengtian warlord Zhang Dashuai in 1921. Its official name was Fengtian Arsenal, the Three Eastern Provinces Arsenal, Fengtian Arsenal and the 90th Factory of the Ordnance Department.
The Shenyang Arsenal was expanded in 1928 and was the largest arsenal in the country at that time. On
November 9, 1946, the 90th Factory of the Ordnance Department was established.
In 1947, three branch factories, Liaoyang, Wenguantun and Fushun, were established. They are located on Chang’an Road in Dadong District and are owned by the Liming Machinery Manufacturing Plant.
There are scientific research institutes, ordnance schools and ordnance hospitals.
It has gun factories, bullet factories, artillery factories, shell factories, fire equipment factories (producing fuses and pyrotechnics), gunpowder factories and foundries. There are more than 8,000 machines and equipment of various types, and self-equipped power generation equipment with an installed capacity of 10,000 kilowatts. It was taken over by the People’s Liberation Army on November 2, 1948.
At present, it is the main supply arsenal for weapons and ammunition of the People’s Liberation Army.
“I never thought that my old Li would become the head of Jiang Chen’s guard regiment. Brigade Commander, it’s fine if you didn’t promote me, but why did you demote me?”
Brigade Commander Chen:”Okay, stop complaining, if Comrade Jiang Chen loses a hair, I will shoot you.……”
“Before you find a suitable candidate, you should take the lead.……”
“Yes, Brigade Commander, I will ensure that the mission is completed!”
After making the arrangements, Brigade Commander Chen left the Shenyang Arsenal.
At the gate,
Deputy Director Zhao Tianming, accompanied by a group of technical workers from the Arsenal and Mao Xiong’s technical consultants, greeted them at the gate.
“Hello, Director Jiang, my name is Zhao Tianming. We have received the appointment letter from the headquarters. From now on, you are the director of Shenyang Arsenal!”
“This is Marx, the Russian bear’s advisor at the arsenal!”
“This is the technical backbone of our arsenal.……”
“Those young people are students who have returned from studying abroad. Her name is Qiu Siyan, she is a materials expert… This is Zhou Hua, our weapons designer.……”
“”Hello!” Jiang Chen greeted everyone one by one.
Then, under the guidance of Zhao Tianming, he first familiarized himself with the specific situation of the arsenal.
Soon, Jiang Chen discovered that the rabbit’s military industry was really poor. The most basic weapons such as bullets, rifles, and artillery needed to be solved.
Raw materials needed to be solved.
There was no advanced equipment.
Even if Jiang Chen wanted to build airplanes, tanks, aircraft carriers and warships, he had no place to start.
It was too difficult.
Then let’s solve the current problems step by step.
Zhao Tianming and a group of international students also admired Jiang Chen very much.
After all, they were top students who were”redeemed” at a”high price”. They obeyed Jiang Chen’s words.
Qiu Siyan and Zhou Hua, who studied abroad themselves, knew California Institute of Technology, and knew what a tenured professor meant.
Not to mention anything else, the annual salary reached 200,000 US dollars.
This was 1949, and you can imagine what Jiang Chen’s worth meant. It is really admirable that he has achieved such a high level at such a young age.
Two days later.
Factory meeting room.
Zhao Tianming asked:”Director, what is the focus of the arsenal next?”
Jiang Chen:”There are two directions in the short term. First, improve the efficiency of bullet production. Second, manufacture the first standard weapon!”
Zhao Tianming’s heart trembled slightly after hearing this.
The problem Jiang Chen mentioned is the biggest problem of Shenyang Arsenal at present.
First, Rabbit’s weapons are almost all made in various countries, with different calibers, which brings huge pressure to logistics.
How to improve production efficiency has become a headache for him.
“How can we improve it? After all, our machines are efficient and the raw materials are limited.……”
Bullets can also be said to be a product of physics, chemistry, materials science, aerodynamics and technology.
It is not only a product of civilization, but also a weapon that destroys civilization.
Bullets are composed of four parts: shell, primer, propellant and warhead. When fired, the firing pin hits the primer, causing the propellant to burn and produce gas to push the warhead out.
Jiang Chen:”At present, the bullets we make are brass… The production cost is too high, and the production efficiency is low.……”
“We can wrap a layer of copper around the steel… let’s call it a copper-coated steel bullet!”
“In this way, the copper-clad steel bullet has both the hardness of steel and the properties of copper, and the key is that it can also save energy and increase efficiency.……”
Jiang Chen briefly explained the principle and process of copper-clad steel.
For an arsenal that can produce bullets, the specific operation does not need to be described by Jiang Chen.
“Director, you have a good brain.……”Zhao Tianming was very excited:”Okay, I will arrange for someone to go for trial production.……”
Jiang Chen solved the biggest problem of the arsenal’s copper shortage in one move.
Most of the country had been liberated, but the war was still going on, and a large amount of bullets were needed.
The superiors asked Zhao Tianming to ensure both quality and quantity.
This made Zhao Tianming very anxious.
Brass was a scarce resource for the rabbits at the moment.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Chen solved the problem in just a few moves.
“Oh, by the way, can you help me shoot a bullet?……”Jiang Chen handed Zhao Tianming a bullet manufacturing blueprint
“12.7 mm?” Zhao Tianming was stunned for a moment:”Director, this caliber is too big!”
“Just follow the instructions above… I have a great effect……”
The bullet problem was solved, and Jiang Chen was going to start making guns.
That day, Jiang Chen called Li Yunlong over and said,”Old Li, you have been in the army for a long time. What do you think is the most lacking weapon for us now?”
“Damn, of course it’s an anti-aircraft gun!”
Jiang Chen slowly took out the blueprint of the M82 Barrett sniper rifle and asked,”What do you think of it?”
