The arsenal of the Eighth Route Army cannot produce mortars by itself, so the mortars in the Eighth Route Army's equipment are mainly obtained by confiscating them. As for who is captured, that is hehehe.
In the 20th year of the Republic of China, the government at that time took the 1930-style French Brand 81mm mortar as the prototype, enlarged the caliber to 82mm, and created this famous mortar, which was later produced at the Jinling Arsenal in Nanjing. This kind of mortar has been in production throughout the war years, and by the end of the war, tens of thousands of them have been produced.
The mortar is a curved-fire weapon. Under the operation of a skilled gunner, the accuracy is quite high. Therefore, the Eighth Route Army's own arsenal also wants to imitate the mortar, but it has not been capable of imitating it before.
It's different now. Now, the Eighth Route Army finally has a large number of advanced processing tools, so they no longer have to worry about craftsmanship. They still have a large number of rails in stock. It is not difficult to imitate mortars.
Even for this kind of thing, Qin Baoshan does not need to come forward. As long as a task is given, the technicians below will imitate it in minutes. After all, this is imitation, not creation.
Having finished speaking, Liu Daquan continued: "It's just that we haven't found a way to process shells yet. We have tried various techniques, but we still can't process them on a lathe."
Although the Eighth Route Army picked up a lot of rails, good steel must be used wisely. Therefore, they did not plan to use rails to make huge quantities of shells, but white iron refined in the Taihang Mountains. Iron is available everywhere and is easy to obtain. If it can be processed into shells, the demand for rail steel will be greatly reduced.
It's just that repeated processing has failed. It is not easy to carve a thread on it. As long as it is processed by a machine, it will be broken.
With cannons, there is no way without cannonballs. Now I am stuck on this step. Liu Daquan looked at Qin Baoshan with a little depression on his face. At this time, the role of knowledge can be reflected. These old masters There is craftsmanship, but without knowledge, without modern knowledge of metal smelting, it is impossible to take this step.
Qin Baoshan nodded: "Yes, this is what we are most lacking at present. Wait for the next step, I will ask our brigade commander to see when the legendary expert who studied abroad will come. Before that, we Try it out first."
Qin Baoshan is good at riding a donkey to find a horse. After all, he can't wait now. The troops on the front line have always been in a state of lack of weapons. Although Li Yunlong is strong and strong, he is invincible, but that is the highest level of the Eighth Route Army. Many newly formed infantry The Corps doesn't even have enough guns, and some main forces still rely on big blades. Therefore, the production of weapons is duty-bound.
Qin Baoshan can only look forward to the expert that the brigade commander said. I hope it's not the brick house with stones, but in this era, there should be very few intellectuals who fool people, right?
"Okay, these equipments are finalized for the time being. Let's get it started first. We can use rail steel to produce a small amount of shells for trial use, and wait for the arrival of experts." Qin Baoshan said: "Next, let's talk about our infantry cannons."
As he said that, Qin Baoshan took out a blueprint as if by magic, just like before, Qin Baoshan is the most rigorous, all kinds of data are clearly marked, and the drawing work is as if he had a professional background, and the people under him, also are used to manufacture in standard sizes.
It's just that this picture is very strange.
"Why is this a pipe?" Someone finally asked.
"That's right, it's just a pipe. If you want to be a cannon, how can you do without a pipe?" Qin Baoshan explained with a smile.
"However, this pipe is thin and long. I'm afraid the chamber pressure is not enough. Isn't it afraid of bursting the chamber? Also, why are there grips and triggers here? Isn't this unique to firearms?"
No one will recognize the equipment that Qin Baoshan draws now, because in this era, this kind of equipment does not exist at all, and it will be known to everyone in later generations. It is the rpg rocket launcher, one of the three magic weapons of the guerrillas !
(The three magic weapons of the guerrillas, the AK rifle, the rocket launcher, and what is the other one? I will keep it a secret here, and we will talk about it later when our protagonist finds it out. After all, not many people know about this third one.)
"First of all, let me introduce the problem of chamber pressure. This pipe does not need to withstand too much chamber pressure. It is enough to have the same thickness as our 500 gun, because when it is fired, it uses a rocket engine. principle."
"Rocket?" In this era of big eastern countries, not many people know the principle of rockets. Speaking of rockets, it is estimated that more people will think of the kind of arrows that can be fired with bows and arrows.
"This tube is only used to hold the rockets, and at the same time give the rockets a shooting direction. When the rockets are actually fired, the rockets fly out by their own power, um, like in this tube Here, put a second kicker." Qin Baoshan introduced.
Speaking of the second kick, everyone immediately realized that it was the rocket that he brought propellant and pushed himself out.
"Here is the design drawing of the rocket." Qin Baoshan took out the second drawing: "There are two kinds of warheads in total, one is an ordinary lethal grenade, which is used to attack the enemy's infantry, machine gun positions, etc. One is a special energy-concentrating warhead, which is used to destroy enemy tanks, even if it is a steel plate with a thickness of 100 millimeters, it can burn through it in an instant."
"One hundred millimeters?" Hearing Qin Baoshan's introduction, everyone was surprised. In this case, the little devil's tank can be burned right through.
"Mortar is a curved fire weapon. Although we invented the flat fire method, there are still great restrictions in its use. This bazooka is a direct-point weapon. The two weapons cooperate with each other to increase the attack of our infantry. Ability." Qin Baoshan said.
Now, it is estimated that no one will know what kind of cross-age weapon this bazooka is. They will not realize its benefits until it is used!
Hit tanks, trains, bunkers, gun towers, any target can be picked up and fucked, even if you get angry, you can even hit low-altitude planes!
Of course, this thing cannot be regarded as a cannon, and there is a big difference from a cannon. With the strength of the Huangyadong Arsenal, without qualified cannon steel, it is currently impossible to manufacture a special infantry cannon. However, if you carry a bazooka, then It is an absolute infantry cannon! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
