Ma Qian'an took a step forward and held the boss of the military industry tightly. After warm greetings, he talked about Cheng's situation lightly. Of course, the journey was smooth and not hard.

When Liu Ding saw Ma Qian'an bringing the soldiers of the Central Guard Regiment, he was stunned for a moment, and then he was very happy, saying, "Okay, Comrade Xiao Ma, I have temporarily requisitioned these soldiers. I was about to report to Mr. Peng to ask for some soldiers. You are here to bring them. You are really a blessing in our Huangya Cave."

Seeing Liu Ding's happy expression, Ma Qian'an realized something and immediately asked, "We left a platoon of soldiers at the mountain pass, are you?" Ma Qian'an looked at Jia Yonggen inquiring.

Jia Yonggen and Liu Ding met, and they didn't speak as restrained as Ma Qian'an, a person who had just met Liu Ding. Jia Yonggen asked, "Minister Liu, where are the original soldiers of Yamaguchi? It's too dangerous not to keep people from Yamaguchi."

When Liu Ding heard that Ma Qian'an had left a platoon at the mountain pass, he was obviously relieved, "That's good, it's worthy of being a regular army, and he could see the trick at a glance." Then he explained: "I know that not long ago, in the morning, Company Commander Duan of Yamaguchi sent a soldier to deliver a letter, saying that a passing Japanese was found. He went to chase the Japanese, but he didn't expect to take all the people away and he hasn't come back now. I am organizing a worker's mine protection team to take over Yamaguchi's defense."

Ma Qian'an then saw a team of workers carrying new guns running towards the suspension bridge. In desperation, Liu Ding had to use the workers who were carrying out production tasks. Even if they had not received systematic training, they could shoot guns and could be in a hurry.

"Company Commander Duan is so brave!" Ma Qian'an glanced at Yamaguchi and actually took the initiative to pursue the Japanese. He was unorganized and disciplined. He abandoned such an important arsenal defense. He was simply a mess. What awaited him was strict military law. There were really people everywhere.

"Oh! This company just retreated from the front line. We originally wanted to let them garrison here for a break, but who knew that Xiao Duan was such a guy?" Liu Ding was also helpless.

Cadres of Liu Ding's level knew some activities of the Anti-Japanese United Nations League, and also knew Ma Qian'an's achievements. They knew that in addition to being proficient in some techniques, the most important thing was a "famous general". The number of enemies annihilated in a single battle can be ranked in the army.

He asked, "What will happen according to your discipline? Xiao Duan is really unreasonable."

Not only is it just a distortion? Minister Liu, you are still a little kind. "According to our military discipline, you have no orders to evacuate without authorization, you can escape according to the battle!"

"Shoot?"

"Shoot!"

Liu Ding was silent for a moment and changed the subject, "I won't talk about him anymore. Just come here. The defense of the mountain pass will be handed over to you. Hey? Commander Jia, why are you here? Is there a gun missing?" Liu Ding asked Jia Yonggen.

Jia Yonggen looked at Ma Qian'an with a look of help. Ma Qian'an then told the story of the new recruits in full. Seeing Liu Ding's surprised look, Ma Qian'an straightened his chest and reported to Jia Yonggen: "Report to Minister Liu, 457 officers and soldiers of the new 3rd regiment have been tested for war to report to you, obey your orders, and wait for your command!"

"Okay, okay." Liu Ding looked at Ma Qian'an silently, then looked at Jia Yonggen. He understood Ma Qian'an's meaning. He thought for a moment and agreed. He agreed. This new 3rd regiment he was familiar with was beaten so badly and suffered such huge losses, which was completely beyond his expectations. His acceptance means that the new 3rd regiment was temporarily under his command.

"Aren't the weapons enough?" Liu Ding half comforted and half helped Jia Yonggen to relieve his embarrassment.

When Liu Ding asked, he curled all the grievances in the heart of Jia Yonggen, a thick man. Jia Yonggen wiped his eyes and sighed deeply, "There are no machine guns, small cannons, bullets, grenades, soldiers have tried their best, and there is no coward! They fought with the Japanese with their fists and teeth, and used their lives to fight for us, and used their lives to make a way out for us. I'm sorry." Speaking of the sadness, Captain Jia burst into tears regardless of his image. For several days, he has been tolerated. He was too tired. Seeing Liu Ding's superior and elder brother, he couldn't control himself, and cried.

"Where is your political commissar?"

"The political commissar and the chief of staff were both sacrificed."

Liu Ding couldn't bear to see Captain Jia, a strong man, wiped his tears, and patted him gently, "Why are you crying? A man doesn't cry easily. I'll make up for you, and I'll make up for you if you want!"

"Really?" Jia Yonggen grabbed Liu Ding's arm through his dim tears, "I want a machine gun, I want a bazooka!"

Liu Ding looked at Jia Yonggen's urgent and extremely serious expression and smiled bitterly, "Really! But the machine gun does not have it, the bazooka can give you 10 pieces."

Jia Yonggen jumped up with a roar. He knew that the power of the rocket launcher was no worse than the Japanese 92 infantry cannons. With the courage of his soldiers, he often used the bayonets to shoot, and it was undoubtedly the power of the rocket launcher.

Jia Yonggen jumped up and was about to walk out of the valley. He wanted to ask his soldiers to get the weapons. Ma Qian'an grabbed him, why is it urgent? It doesn't matter if the weapons are equipped later. Now we have to solve the arsenal's defense problem, we need to redeploy and adjust, and report the local situation. How can you leave in a hurry?

Liu Ding took Ma Qian'an, Zhang Yuan and others into the heavily guarded factory area. There were more than a dozen buildings standing in the factory area. The largest one was more than 2,000 square meters in the building area, and it was a building. Liu Ding explained that it was an fitter workshop, working on the first floor and dormitory on the second floor.

Ma Qian'an sincerely admired that it would be impossible to open up such a large arsenal in these inconvenient mountains and hills. Without strong will and huge manpower investment.

Seeing Ma Qian'an fascinated, Liu Ding was also very proud as the master. He introduced that "this is all the credit of Chief of Staff Zuo. Chief of Staff Zuo stared here for half a year in order to build this arsenal, and he left only after he achieved results."

Of course, Liu Ding also has a lot of contributions to this. From Liu Ding's intermittent introduction, he highly praised Chief of Staff. At that time, the construction task of building an arsenal was very arduous. From Hanzhuang to here, the distance was 50 kilometers alone, and it was all a small path with undulating goat intestines, with uneven undulating and large slopes. All the building materials and equipment could only be carried on the shoulders. Zuo Quan wore a straw hat and shining against the scorching sun, not only commanded the project construction, but also climbed cliffs and ridges with the workers, carried soil and stones, mixed with mud, and laying the foundation. Everything was done. During the construction, he encountered rainy days, mountain torrents, and road blocked. He insisted on moving machines with everyone on the muddy road.

It was precisely because of a practical man like Liu Ding and Chief of Staff that the arsenal was soon built and continuously providing weapons.

In order to understand the technical strength and equipment of the arsenal, Ma Qian'an and Zhang Yuan, accompanied by relevant personnel, carefully inspected the various factories and machinery and equipment in the factory.

Liu Ding and Jia Yonggen discussed the defense issues of the arsenal.

The arsenal has more than 40 machines, one three-section boiler, two steam engines, and more than 20 cutting machine tools. Of course, this machine is not enough, not only backward, but also very old. But with just such a few machines, the arsenal has produced weapons that can equip 16 regiments in a year, which is really touching and admirable.

On that day, Ma Qian'an and Zhang Yuan immediately devoted themselves to improving the production of rocket launchers. The news from the front line showed that the life of the original rocket launchers was seriously damaged, and various parts were often problematic. The front line was used too hard, resulting in fewer and fewer rocket launchers available, and constantly urged the arsenal to speed up production.

After communicating with Liu Ding, Liu Ding reluctantly took out most of the "good steel" from the small inventory of raw materials and distributed it to Zhang Yuan to improve molds and production. At Ma Qian'an's suggestion, the arsenal took out some of its strength and raw materials to produce the 1913 multi-fragment high-explosive grenade.

After several days and nights, the production of rocket launchers and rockets has greatly improved.

Jia Yonggen has also been here twice, and he plundered and plundered 15 rocket launchers with 20 rockets. In a few days, Jia Yonggen had a "artillery" and was so unhappy that he screamed to let the Japanese who had suffered a defeat for him look at it.

In a rare free time, Ma Qianan pulled Liu Ding to compete in his marksmanship. He had heard that this senior agent Jia Military Industry was a sharpshooter. If he didn't compete, he was really unwilling to accept it.

The 38 gun captured by Ma Qian'an Cao, and Liu Ding used the "Feature 81" produced by his own factory. Ma Qian'an gained some advantage in terms of gun quality. After all, the Japanese's 38 style is a product of large-scale industrialization manufacturing, with better accuracy, but the results of the competition were comparable. Both of them had ten rings of guns within a hundred meters, and it was difficult to distinguish within two hundred meters. Only when it reached three hundred meters, Ma Qian'an relied on his good guns to lead one ring.

The two of them appreciate each other, and friendship begins to sprout in their joint work.

One afternoon a few days later, Liu Ding hurriedly woke Ma Qian'an who had just closed his eyes for a day and a night, and patted him on the shoulder in a hurry.

"Xiaoma, new mission!" Liu Ding waved the two telegrams in his hand, "You asked you to go back quickly in Yan'an, and General Peng asked me to send him rockets quickly. I thought about it and was going to send you to deliver ammunition to General Peng. After doing this, you will go back to Yan'an directly. Do you think it's done?"

"It's OK! Anyway, there is Zhang Yuan here, so it's not very useful for me. I'll go." Ma Qianan answered in a daze and yawned a big yawn.

Liu Ding was very excited and rubbed his hands and said, "This time, Mr. Peng surrounded a group of Japanese soldiers. This time, Japanese soldiers no longer dared to sway in the base area!"

The second yawned halfway through, Ma Qian'an asked in a speechless manner, "Where is it?"

"Guan Jiawu!"
Chapter completed!
