As he was still carrying the mined phosphorous ores, his speed was inevitably slower. By the time Li Yunlong arrived at the border arsenal, it was already noon of the fourth day.
"Isn't this Vice Brigade Commander Li? " You're here for ammunition too, right? I advise you not to waste your time. That Zhang Wanhe is a miser, stingy."”The chief of staff of another brigade greeted Li Yunlong when he saw him.
Actually, he wasn't very familiar with Li Yunlong, but Li Yunlong was very famous now.
Li Yunlong waved his hand and said," Even if he's a miser, we have to dig out a few pounds of iron for him. Those ammunitions can't bear children. What's the point of keeping them?”
"I still don't think there's much hope. Then, Deputy Brigade Commander Li, hurry up and go in. We'll go back first.”
"Alright."
Seeing this scene, the soldiers of the guard platoon felt a little proud. Their deputy brigade commander was really influential. Even the chiefs of staff of the other brigades took the initiative to greet him.
"Let's go."
Holding the horse, Li Yunlong led the guards to register at the gate of the Munitions Factory and then went in.
"Li Yunlong, you're here too? We really don't have any extra ammunition." When he saw Li Yun Long, Zhang Wanhe began to complain," Look at my ears. They've been worn out by the people from the various units.”
"What's our relationship? We're from the same hometown in the Dabie Mountains.”Li Yunlong replied," This time, we're actually here to give you a big gift."”
Big gift?
Forget it.
Zhang Wanhe pursed his lips. He knew Li Yunlong well. He never made a losing deal. His reaction was to agree to his words and shamelessly take away an unknown amount of ammunition and supplies from him.
It was also in response to that sentence. When the villagers saw each other, their eyes welled up with tears.
Why are you crying?
His heart ached for ammunition and supplies.
"As you know, I'm a knowledgeable person now.”Li Yun Long said again.
Zhang Wanhe nodded. Everyone in the Eighth Route Army knew about Li Yunlong.
"During this period of time, I always felt that those rifles were f * cking useless. So, I thought hard behind closed doors for a period of time and combined my twenty years of war experience and knowledge to design a new type of rifle.”As he spoke, Li Yun Long took out the blueprint that he had spent two days and two nights drawing.
Puff.
Zhang Wanhe, who was drinking tea, spat it out.
What did he hear?
A new rifle was designed after a period of closed-door thinking?
This was too much of an exaggeration.
There were many people who were cultured and knowledgeable, but how many of them could design rifles?
"Then I'll have to take a good look." Zhang Wanhe reached out and took the stack of blueprints. He was prepared to criticize Li Yunlong from a professional point of view and let him understand that he couldn't boast.
The first blueprint unfolded.
There was indeed a rifle drawn on it.
It was very exquisite, and every detail was very clear.
This?
Zhang Wanhe's expression turned grave.
To be in charge of logistics and the production of the arsenal, he had a deep understanding of firearms and ammunition. Moreover, they had previously developed the Type 81 Horse Rifle.
But he had never seen such a rifle.
Although it was simple, it was filled with violence. The beauty of torture.
He flipped to the next blueprint.
When he saw the detailed size of the parts, Zhang Wanhe's hands began to tremble, and his originally sallow face became moist. Red was a sign of excitement. From his professional point of view, there was nothing wrong with it.
Actually, Li Yunlong didn't draw any other gun.
It was a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle.
He was most familiar with this kind of old gun. When he was in the special forces, he had specially seen the original design drawings, so he could draw them in detail.
Light weight, reliable structure, easy maintenance, use of 7.62× 39mm intermediate power bullets, automatic loading, single shot, effective range of 400 meters, sharpshooters can reach 600 meters, equipped with a special launcher can also launch grenades.
He had also thought about the AKM, which was known as the king of rifles, but he had given up.
It was not practical.
Although the firepower was strong, the 8th Route Army could not afford it.
In fact, even in the later generations, AKs were not used for continuous firing. They were usually used for two to five shots.
Moreover, AKs were more suitable for close range assaults. They could be used together with aircraft, tanks, and cannons. The current Eighth Route Army was basically a pure infantry charge. Before you could even get close to them with an AK, they would already start calling your name.
Although the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle could only fire a single shot, there was no doubt that it could definitely beat the crap out of the Sanba Gang. When the conditions were right, he could get the Type 56 submachine gun. Then, the firepower would be enough.
"Calm down, calm down." Seeing Zhang Wanhe was very excited. " Move," Li Yun Long advised. If he had a cerebral hemorrhage, he would be in deep trouble.
Calm down?
How was he supposed to calm down?
Zhang Wanhe didn't even look at Li Yunlong. Instead, he stood up and said," Quick, tell Mr. Liu and Mr. Li to come over immediately."”
"Yes."
The soldier at the door quickly turned around to call for help. This was the first time he had seen Zhang Wan so anxious.
Very quickly.
All the technical engineers from the Munitions Factory had arrived.
These were the most powerful weapons factories in the border region. One of them was the one who designed the Type 81 Horse Rifle in 1939.
What was a Type 81 Horse Rifle?
The first rifle independently researched and manufactured by the Eighth Route Army represented the highest level of weapon production of the Eighth Route Army during this period, laying the foundation for the development of military industry after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
"Come here and close the door.”Zhang Wanhe called out anxiously.
Why was he in such a hurry?
The faces of the people who came also became serious. They quickly went to Zhang Wanhe's side.
"What kind of gun is this? It looks so complicated."
"That's not right. This structure seems to be able to automatically retract the shell and load the bullet.”
"That's faster than pulling it with your hands. Every second counts on the battlefield.”
"No problem. I can't see any problems with these structures.”
"The magazine can hold ten rounds, which is also an advantage.”
"But can we make these structures and components?”
"Even if we can't do it, we have to think of a way. Once it's installed, do we still have to be afraid of those devils?”
"These bullets are different from the ones we use now. We need to remake them.”
These engineers were both excited and sad, and they looked like they were about to go crazy.
Indeed.
Zhang Wanhe and the others were about to go crazy.
They dared to guarantee that such a rifle, once manufactured, would definitely crush the Japanese's 38.
However, there was another problem. With the current manufacturing standards and conditions of the Eighth Route Army, even Hanyang could not mass produce such rifles, let alone such rifles. It was like looking at meat in a pot but not eating it. It was too uncomfortable and torturous.
Swoosh.
At this moment, Li Yunlong stood up and walked over." Actually, we didn't expect to be able to mass produce it now.”
Zhang Wanhe was speechless.
The others were speechless.
He really wanted to strangle that bastard Li Yunlong. Was he deliberately making them feel uncomfortable?
"We can make some preparations first." Li Yunlong explained," For example, you can make the triangular bayonet first. As for the rifle itself, you can take your time. Of course, the problem of bullets can only be solved by you.”
Although the Eighth Route Army was seriously lacking steel, they could not produce some. For example, after the Type 81 Horse Rifle was designed in 1939, more than 9,000 were produced in five years.
One of the sources of steel was the railway. During the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese people wanted to vomit blood when they dug up the railway. When one side was repaired, another side was dug up.
The other was to melt the captured steel helmets. This was also the reason why no soldiers wore the steel helmets.
"I don't need too much. Even if I only equip a company, it can be of great use. When the time comes, I'll be able to take down the Tai…Originally, if they occupied the arsenal over there, it would be much easier to produce.”Li Yunlong added.
That's right.
Zhang Wanhe sighed." That's the only way. This matter is classified as top secret and only a few of us know about it.”
He definitely couldn't let this leak out.
Otherwise, with the Japanese's industrial strength, they would be able to replicate it on a large scale very soon. At that time, they would be even more invincible.
"Yes."
The engineers present responded.
"Li Yunlong, oh Li Yunlong, I didn't expect you to be such a genius.”Zhang Wanhe raised his hand and punched Li Yunlong's mouth." This gift is too expensive. You can choose whatever you want this time as long as it's available here."”
This was exactly what Li Yun Long wanted.
"Deputy Brigade Commander Li, tell us about this. I don't quite understand.”
"And the working principle of this organization.”
Li Yunlong was pulled over by a few engineers to explain.
Zhang Wanhe walked over to make a phone call. He had to inform the boss of such a big matter. However, the moment he opened his mouth, the boss was shocked.
