Late at night.
The workshop of the Munitions Factory was still overcrowded.
Everyone gathered in front of the bullet production line to observe. The production line was running like a long dragon. Accompanied by the sound of various machines, Shen Feng explained the entire production process to everyone.
The first was the production of bullet shells. In recent days, the mine had increased the amount of mining. The copper ore was smelted and processed by stamping machines into rolls of brass strip blanks.
There were also some iron belts and other metal blanks that could be used as grenade shells and machine gun bullets.
The blanks were then processed, flattened, and size. The mixing ratio of the various metal materials, the pulling strength, and the extension rate were all checked by professionals.
During this period, in order to avoid wasting materials, there were neatly arranged holes on one side of the machine tool. Otherwise, excess materials would be sent out, so that every bit of steel would be used on the blade.
After the basic prototype of the shell was completed, it still needed to be cleaned, dehydrated, dried, and rolled.
The second step was to fill the firing powder, which was also the base fire. This step used wet filling technology. The main components such as lead, helium, glass powder, etc. The mixed firing powder was soaked in alcohol and Deionized Water into a ball to ensure the safety of the filling process.
At the same time, the processing process of the warhead continued. It was roughly the same as the shell. At present, the main production was still the conventional warhead made of brass and lead. This was mainly because the materials and equipment were not sufficient.
If the conditions allowed, they could create pure steel bullets!
This kind of bullet had extremely strong penetration power and could even be used as armor-piercing bullets and other special bullets!
After all this, it was the final step, assembling the bomb.
This place was no longer like before, where manual punching was used. Instead, it was a specialized bullet pressing machine. Not only did it save a lot of manpower and energy, but the bullets produced were seamless, and there was no need to worry about rain and water leakage.
"Little Shen, you're really amazing. You're like a literary star that has descended from the heavens!”
After Zhang Wanhe and the other officers witnessed the entire assembly line, they were all pleasantly surprised.
He walked to the final product line and saw that the ammunition box was filled with new yellow bullets that looked like gold!
In fact, bullets are like gold to our army!
Zhang Wanhe grabbed a handful and even sniffed it. He felt that the smell was extremely stimulating!
Shen Feng smiled.
According to the current speed, the production rate was at least 10,000 rounds per day, but in reality, this speed was far from enough. Not to mention that this was the most important logistics department of our army in the entire Huabei warzone. Sometimes, a regiment fighting in the front line would consume more than 100,000 rounds of ammunition in a month.
If they encountered a large battle, this number would be even more ridiculous.
For example, the previous victory at the parallel pass could not have been achieved without an adequate supply of ammunition.
At that time, because of the supply of bullets from the national army, they could fight without any worries. On average, a soldier could be issued with hundreds of bullets. It was a very rare rich war.
However, as our military strength continued to grow, Old Jiang's side quickly reduced their military assistance until it was completely cut off. It was all on our own.
At present, there are three main sources of ammunition for our army. One is to rely on independent production and refilling. The quantity is small and there is no quality guarantee.
The second method was to seize it, but unfortunately, it was still a drop in the ocean.
The last method was thought of by that person, and it was also the most effective shortcut.
That was to collect all kinds of firearms and ammunition from the people. Because in the chaotic war years, many weapons and ammunition had flowed into the people.
At the same time, the internal structure of the national army began to corrupt. They secretly sold weapons and ammunition. Some teams had good relations with some officers of the national army and bought ammunition from them.
Moreover, there were many such cases. Sometimes, they could buy hundreds of thousands of bullets at a time. If the profits were enough, they could even get some heavy weapons!
From this, one could see the differences between the two sides.
A thousand li long dike, a small ant nest, was not built overnight.
Now that we have such a large-scale independent production force, it has undoubtedly given our army another shot in the arm!
However, Shen Feng still felt that this speed was too slow. One had to know that in some factories overseas, he could shoot tens of thousands of shots per hour!
In the end, it was still a problem with the industrial foundation. This was not something that could be changed in a short period of time.
"Brother Shen! Brother Shen!"
At this moment, Old Li's shout sounded from outside.
Shen Feng immediately went out and saw Old Li rushing back with the Engineer Company and Sun Desheng.
"Old Li, how's the situation on your side?”
"Of course we won, but we let a Japanese escape. He seems to be an officer.”
"Brother Shen, you're too accurate. A small team, well-equipped, all with automatic weapons. Look!”
Shen Feng took the gun from Li Yunlong and said," This is a German MP38 submachine gun. It is equipped with 9mm bullets and has a high lethality within 200 meters. The rate of fire is also very fast. How many people are injured?”
"Hey, Brother Shen, you're too talented. You can tell the origin of this gun with one look. Don't worry, there are only a few grazed brothers. Look at this dung spoon, what is it made of?”
Shen Feng put away the MP38 and planned to study it later. Xiao Ri had already formed an alliance with the German army, so it was not surprising that he could buy weapons from them.
This helmet should be a kind of bulletproof helmet that they made themselves. It was made of nickel-steel alloy and had an anti-reflective coating on the surface. It seemed that it was the Yamamoto Special Agent Team.
"Damn it, no wonder it's so sturdy. Brother Shen, it's all thanks to those smoke bombs you made this time. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy to fight.”
"By the way, our Old Li brought these guns back because he wanted you to see if you could make a batch of them. The most important thing is the bullets.”
Although he had gotten more than a dozen submachine guns from the Yamamoto Special Agent Team, the ammunition was pitifully small. Old Li was also prepared to give these weapons to Sun Desheng to form a team with top combat power.
"You want to join the special forces?"
"What special forces? I just want to give good things to powerful soldiers.”
"No problem. We already have a bullet production line now. Don't worry about the ammunition, but I don't recommend rushing to make automatic firearms.”
"What? Bullet production line? Where?"
Old Li was shocked when he heard that. After the introduction, he went to the workshop and looked at the endless stream of bullets.
"F * ck!"
"Brother Shen, you're too f * cking capable! It's only been three days, and you've made such a big guy, hahaha! Old Li is going to be rich. I'll order ten thousand of these bullets first!”
"Sure."
Shen Feng agreed casually, which shocked Li Yunlong even more. Usually, he would not even dare to give Zhang Wanhe 10,000 bullets. It would be more painful than digging out meat. But now, Shen Feng did not even hesitate.
Furthermore, after testing the gun, it was still an old gun. However, after loading new bullets, the accuracy and stability of the trajectory had been improved. The penetrating power and lethality had also become stronger!
"Hahaha! That's great, Brother Shen, our Old Li loves you to death!”
Shen Feng said awkwardly," Oh right, Old Li, why are you back? Since you won, why don't you go and take credit from the boss? The boss should have left you at the front line.”
Unexpectedly, Li Yunlong snorted coldly when he heard that. He stuck out his neck proudly and said,""If you want us to leave, we'll leave. If you want us to return, we'll return.”
