"I can't believe that our military factory has such a scale. It can produce such high-quality blanks. This place is no worse than Fengtian Arsenal, no, it should be better than Fengtian Arsenal." Lao Yang said with emotion.
Back then, Lao Yang and the others were forcibly taken away by the bandits. They were very unwilling at first, but later when they found out that the Eighth Route Army was coming to pick them up, they followed the Eighth Route Army and went all the way to Huangyadong Arsenal.
After arriving, they were already shocked. When they were in the Northeast, they also heard that the Eighth Route Army made weapons very hard, because they used rails to make weapons because there was no qualified steel. Things like rails are not an excellent material, so a gun barrel made of this steel will be scrapped after being loaded with hundreds of bullets. So it's just usable, not high quality at all. He also said that the Eighth Route Army's gun barrels were also very crude, and they were made by cutting scissors and sharpening kitchen knives.
After arriving here, they discovered that none of the rumors were true. The arsenal here is technologically advanced, and there are various specialized machines to build weapons. And the smelting of steel is also very advanced. Taking the steel materials sent by Xiagou Iron Works, based on Lao Yang's many years of experience, they fully meet the standards for manufacturing 20mm machine guns.
He couldn't believe his eyes, the military factory here could actually smelt such advanced steel, holding these blanks, Lao Yang was full of emotion.
"As long as it can meet your needs, we are afraid that the quality of these steel materials is not enough." Hearing Lao Yang's words, Lu Da, who came to deliver the steel materials, said to him. While talking, he pushed his glasses. Looking at such a technician, Lao Yang couldn't help asking: "I think you are very capable, where did you come from?"
Hearing what Lao Yang said, Lu Da said embarrassedly: "I used to work in the Krupp military factory before."
Fengtian Armory is known as the Krupp of the East, but that is just a way of putting gold on the face. If it is really compared, there is no way to compare with Germany's Krupp. Now that Lu Da said that he worked for Krupp, Lao Yang was envious.
"You are really amazing, and our Eighth Route Army is also very capable. We have recruited so many talents." Lao Yang sighed.
Lu Da smiled: "Only our Eighth Route Army is the power to fight the devils. Therefore, those who want to fight the devils will naturally go to the Eighth Route Army. By the way, you are making guns. Look at our steel, the caliber Bigger guns, is there any problem?"
Lao Yang shook his head: "There is no problem. The quality of this kind of steel is quite good, even better than that of our Fengtian Armory. So even if it is a 100mm cannon, there is no problem. But if you want to build this kind of cannon , the demand for shells is too much.¡±
Lu Da nodded. Steel case bullets can be used on guns, but they must not be used on guns. If a cannon of this caliber gets stuck, the consequences are quite dangerous. It must be of good quality brass.
"Since you have all approved it, Xiagou Iron Works will provide you with this kind of steel in the future. You can make these steel into 20mm machine guns. By then, the air defense capability of our Eighth Route Army will be greatly improved. promote."
In the past, they used to manufacture 13mm machine guns, which have shown excellent performance on the battlefield. Not only can it be used for air-to-air shooting, but it can also be used to attack the ground. Whether it's the gun towers that beat the little devils, or the armored vehicles that beat the little devils, they are all quite powerful. Now all these equipments are back. Because it is a complete set of equipment, it is very light and simple. As long as it can be installed, it can continue to produce 20mm cannons. The caliber continued to expand, and the air defense capability was further improved. It can be said that they will not be afraid when they encounter air bombing by little devils in the future. This kind of cannon can be fired even higher into the sky, and if the little devil wants to bomb it in the future, he has to weigh it carefully.
"Yes, we will start production as soon as possible as our gift to the Eighth Route Army." These people have just defected to the Eighth Route Army and have to make some contributions. This 20mm cannon is their contribution to the Eighth Route Army.
"Okay, then get busy!" Lu Da said: "I still have something to do, let's go first. If you have any needs, just come to Xiagou Iron Works to find us."
After Lu Da finished speaking, he left in a hurry. He didn't immediately set foot on the return journey, but went to the accommodation area of ??the Huangyadong Arsenal because he heard that Qin Baoshan was coming. If it hadn't been for the delivery of these steel materials, he would definitely have rushed there immediately, but it's not too late now.
After Lu Da ran to the back, he heard Qin Baoshan mumbling to himself in the room. What is it called? each of these namesAll of them make sense. He is falling into the difficulty of choosing. Lu Da had already shouted outside: "Director Qin, you're back! I'm Lu Da, and I came here to take a look."
Hearing that it was Lu Da coming, Qin Baoshan's eyes lit up: "Gong Lu. I still want to find you. We will have a large amount of brass waiting for us to mine. At the same time, I still feel that in that mountain, There may be more brass. So this will probably require a trip of your own."
On the way back, Qin Baoshan discovered a very important resource called brass. And there is still no need to smelt, it is directly finished. So after he returned to the arsenal, the first major thing he did was to immediately organize his forces to mine. After returning, Qin Baoshan had already entered the working state again before enjoying the family happiness. He looked at his wife with apologetic eyes. For a long time, there are many things waiting for you."
Of course Wei Shuqin will not drag Qin Baoshan down. She knows how much Qin Baoshan has contributed to the Eighth Route Army, and she has already returned, so there is nothing to worry about. Let him get to work quickly.
Qin Baoshan came out of his room, took Lu Da to the office, and began to study.
Lu Da knew about this. Hearing what Qin Baoshan said, Lu Da joked, "I never thought you would have such luck, and I heard that the copper doesn't need to be smelted, it can be used directly."
"Yes, I suspect that there was a volcanic eruption in ancient times. This volcano is directly equivalent to a smelting furnace, which smelted the copper for us." Qin Baoshan said to Lu Da: "This is supported by God. Our anti-Japanese cause."
"This can't be called God, this should be called the Lord of the Earth." At this moment, another voice came from outside. Qin Baoshan's eyes lit up again: "Brigade Commander, what brought you here?" (Remember this site's website: www.hlnovel.com
