The Su's AK rifle was officially mass-produced. This was a very crucial step.
Although the current production capacity was a little low, it could also gradually improve the weapons and equipment of the Eighth Route Army.
This was a very good start.
In the next few days.
Su Wen's main task was to keep an eye on the production line of the Su-style AK rifle and ensure that it could be mass-produced smoothly.
In the process of producing the parts of the Soyu-style AK rifle, there were indeed some problems with the machine tools and equipment, but they were all solved by Su Wen.
These were all small problems.
Very quickly.
The first mass-produced Soyu-style AK rifle appeared.
The second one.
The third one.
...
More and more AK rifles were mass-produced.
From the first Soviet-style AK rifle to mass production, the entire process was really not easy.
At this moment.
In the factory.
buzzing
The sound of machines kept ringing out, and all the machines were busy running.
Zhao Tianming looked at these machines and said excitedly,"I really didn't expect our Eighth Route Army's military factory to be able to mass-produce such an advanced rifle. This time, it's all thanks to you, Su Wen. You're the hero of our arsenal!”
"Factory Manager Zhao, you're too polite. These are all my duties as a citizen!”
"If our Munitions Factory works harder and produces more advanced weapons and equipment, our soldiers will have fewer sacrifices. We can chase the Japanese out earlier and help China!”
Zhao Tianming: " Well said. Our base is often blocked by the Japanese's turrets and bunkers because we lack weapons and equipment, especially decent artillery. Otherwise, the Japanese would not be able to divide our base!”
It was already very impressive that the Eighth Route Army's military factory could produce guns.
Not to mention building cannons.
To be able to create mortar shells was already quite impressive.
It could be said that not only did the Eighth Route Army lack artillery, but the Central Army and the Jinsui Army also lacked artillery.
During the war, the scarcity of artillery in the entire anti-Japanese army had reached an unimaginable level.
In 1935, the National Government reorganized the reserve artillery unit and found that there were only 456 cannons that could be used in the field. In fact, only 200 cannons could be used.
Since 1931, the domestic production of artillery had been declining. The Shanghai arsenal was affected by factors such as insufficient funds, backward management, and political interference. It could only produce one 75mm field cannon per month. After the 128th Incident in 1932, the factory was revoked and lost the ability to produce similar artillery.
The other factories were either occupied or destroyed by the Japanese. They had basically lost their ability to make cannons.
Therefore, the Eighth Route Army basically did not have many field artillery.
Su Wen pondered for a moment and said,"Actually, according to the current conditions of our arsenal, it's not impossible to make cannons!”
The moment this was said, Zhao Tianming's eyes lit up as he looked at Su Wen with anticipation."Comrade Su Wen, you know how to make cannons?”
"A little, a little!"
With the current equipment and conditions of the 8th Route Army's Taihang Mountain Munitions Factory, it was impossible to produce cannons.
He couldn't make conventional cannons, but he could make Flying Thunder Cannons!
The Flying Thunder Cannon was simple to make, but it was very powerful. It could very well satisfy the 8th Route Army's lack of artillery.
It was still possible to use it for a short period of time.
It was now 1940, and the Flying Thunder Cannon had yet to be invented. Su Wen decided to create the Flying Thunder Cannon.
Upon hearing Su Wen's words, Zhao Tianming instantly became excited and said,"Little Su, what kind of equipment and machinery do you need to make a cannon? I'll definitely support you with all my strength!"
"Currently, the conditions of our Munitions Factory are very limited. If I can't settle this, I'll find my superior!”
Ever since Su Wen came up with the Su-style AK rifle with his bare hands, Zhao Tianming knew that Su Wen was a rare talent. Anything unbelievable could happen.
Although making cannons seemed impossible to others, everything was possible for Su Wen.
Su Wen looked at Zhao Tianming and said unhurriedly,"Factory Manager Zhao, I don't need any equipment or machinery. I just need a metal bucket.”
"An iron bucket?" This time, it was Zhao Tianming's turn to be dumbfounded.
