668 Reinforcement of Jizhong The Beginning of the Legendary Road——Captain Kong, the Academic Master
Talking about the progress of research on broadsword mines, the king of killing.
Dong San’s face was full of excitement.
Ever since Kong Jie proposed this directional anti-infantry landmine, Dong San was like a man possessed. He immediately held a research meeting at the Ministry of Military Industry to study this new type of landmine in a targeted manner.
"Captain, the effect you mentioned is simply amazing. I never thought that landmines could use this structure to kill enemies."
"Why were the grenades made in our border area so much less powerful than the grenades made in the border area in the past? The 48-petal grenade made in our border area could eject 48 fragments of bombs when it exploded, but our grenades made in the border area basically exploded in one blow.
Of the two halves, some were just dumb bombs, and I saw that many of them had killed and injured the Japanese."
"Now we are using the principle that after the explosive explodes, the curved steel plate can be shot out in a direction, which can undoubtedly greatly increase the number of fragments of our new landmine."
Broadsword mines, or directional anti-infantry mines, are naturally terrifying weapons.
Kong Jie asked: "Has the finished product been produced yet?"
"Reporting to the leader, the King of Killing has been initially finalized. At present, the explosive production factory has produced a total of 300 pieces, which are piled up in the explosive warehouse." Dong San quickly reported the report.
He then introduced Kong Jie:
"The appearance of the Killing King is a square thin steel plate with a curved and convex surface. In addition, a shell corner frame is installed at the bottom. The overall length is about 25 centimeters, the width is about 5 centimeters, and the height is about 10 centimeters. It is heavy.
It weighs about ten kilograms. According to the design requirements given by the team leader, the interior is filled with hundreds of steel balls, iron spiked balls, fragments and other scattered debris."
"In addition, in order to ensure that the soldiers do not mistake the direction of killing the enemy during use, we printed the words 'This is facing the enemy' on the raised side of the steel plate."
After hearing this, Kong Jie was full of curiosity and said: "Come on, show me."
"Yes!"
After a while, Dong San took Kong Jie to the explosives warehouse of the explosives factory and saw 300 directional anti-infantry landmines, the king of killing, neatly arranged.
The words facing the enemy clearly came into view. Kong Jie, who was well aware of its terrifying power, couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling slightly when he looked at the shocking scene in front of him.
Kong Jie picked up a King of Slaughter, weighed it, and looked at it carefully for a while.
Compared with the broadsword mines of later generations, this King of Killing is already pretty impressive, but it is much heavier in weight. It is not as good as the broadsword mines of later generations, and it can even be made of plastic.
The King of Slaughter in Kong Jie's hand is made of thin steel plates and is a little heavy to handle. A single soldier may not be able to carry much.
Of course, Kong Jie believes that the repair shop will make improvements in the future to make its performance even more superior.
"It's too heavy. It's no better than the grenades and landmines we commonly use. A soldier can carry two or three, which is close to the limit." Kong Jie commented.
Dong San smiled and replied: "Captain, you may not think it is heavy, but the power of our Killing King cannot be matched by explosives of the same quality."
"Explosives of the same quality can cause damage to enemy troops within 20 meters of the explosion."
"But our King of Killings, the fragments fired from the front can even cover a range of more than 200 meters away from the front. Within a range of 50 meters, if the terrain is similar to the gentle terrain in Jizhong and there are no bunkers, no matter how many Japanese soldiers come, they will just give food. 100
Within a distance of 200 meters, a mere scratch can severely damage the target. Within a fan-shaped distance of 200 meters, if the enemy comes in, he or she will be killed or injured."
Kong Jie said: "You brat, you are so confident."
"Confidence is given by the leader. Leader, this is the most powerful mine produced by our repair shop." Dong San replied.
Kong Jie asked: "Has it been tested?"
Dong Sandan: "We have tested it. The scarecrow 200 meters away has multiple steel nails embedded in it. If this is the flesh and blood body of the little devil, it will definitely be over."
Kong Jie said: "The specific power needs to be verified in practice. I am going to send a batch to the troops in Jizhong, and our repair shop will speed up the production of another batch. This is a big killer for our independent regiment.
, will always come in handy."
"Yes!"
Then, accompanied by Dong San, Kong Jie inspected the research and production of various new weapons at the Military Industry Research Institute.
In fact, the situation between China and Japan in the Jizhong Military Region has quietly changed during this period. Kong Jie has already received the news about the Japanese army's use of armored vehicles and tanks to deal with the tunnel warfare of the Jizhong troops.
During this inspection at the Military Industry Research Institute, Kong Jie also wanted to see the progress of the military industry research institute's research on weapons and equipment for anti-tank warfare.
"How have the 37mm rapid-fire cannons seized from the Japanese been transformed?" Kong Jie asked.
The artillery often equipped by the Japanese artillery force includes 75mm mountain cannon, 70mm Type 92 infantry cannon, and Type 94 37mm rapid-fire cannon.
The Japanese Type 94 37mm rapid-fire gun is actually an imitation of the German KWK36 37mm anti-tank gun.
The little devil got some design information of the German-made 37mm anti-tank gun and copied the 94-type 37mm rapid-fire gun.
The Japanese designed this kind of artillery to deal with armored targets.
But the Eighth Route Army troops did not have sharp weapons such as armored vehicles.
The Japanese, who were short of resources, treated the 37mm anti-tank guns as conventional artillery and incorporated them into some artillery units for combat.
The first detachment has even set up its artillery battalion, so it naturally has some 37mm rapid-fire guns.
We also take into account the anti-tank battles we may face at any time.
Kong Jie quickly mobilized a batch of idle rapid-fire guns and handed them over to the research institute for modification, hoping to improve their performance to the level of German-made 37mm anti-tank guns.
At the very least, it has to reach the power of the national army’s 37mm anti-tank artillery, right?
Dong San replied: "Captain, don't worry, these 37mm rapid-fire guns have been modified and can be used as the backbone artillery of our first detachment in anti-tank operations."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"We imitated the German-made capped armor-piercing projectile. The 37mm capped armor-piercing projectile fired can penetrate more than 30mm thick homogeneous steel armor at a distance of 100 meters. Even at a distance of 500 meters, it can penetrate
Nearly thirty millimeters of armor."
"That's enough!" Kong Jie said with a smile: "This kind of armor-piercing ability is naturally not enough to deal with the armor of some high-quality European tanks, but it is more than enough to deal with the thin-skinned tanks of the Japanese."
"The armor thickness of the Type 97 modified medium tank, which is the thickest armored one in the Japanese army, is only 25 mm."
"The Type 97 tanks are often used by the Japs on frontal battlefields to deal with our Eighth Route Army troops behind enemy lines. The Japs often use the Type 89 tanks, as well as the larger Type 94 ultra-light tanks, Type 95 light tanks, etc." p>
"In the eyes of some European countries, these tanks are probably of such inferior quality that they are not even comparable to some light armored vehicles."
"The thickest front armor of the entire tank is less than 20 millimeters. The weakest point of the ultra-light tank's armor is even less than ten centimeters. It is as fragile as a sheet of iron."
"In addition, the armor plate of the Little Devil's tank basically adopts a riveted structure instead of a welded structure. The structural stability of the tank itself is already much worse. When faced with the attack of armor-piercing projectiles, it can be said to be as weak as a piece of paper.
Poke it and it will break."
"This kind of junk armor can even be penetrated directly by the Browning heavy machine gun we bought from John."
"With this batch of artillery, no matter how many tanks the Japs have, in our eyes they are just piles of moving scraps of scrap metal."
Speaking of this, Kong Jie thought for a while and reminded:
"It's just that this anti-tank gun is still a bit bulky, difficult to operate by a single soldier, and can easily expose its target and attract enemy artillery fire."
"Our research institute is trying to find a way to see if we can create an anti-tank rifle that belongs to our first team."
"Anti-tank rifle!" Dong San looked embarrassed when he heard this. The leader really dared to think of anything.
Kong Jie knows that even with today's development, even if the first detachment's military research institute has the technology, the gap in equipment is still difficult to make up.
He smiled and said: "You brat, don't imagine how difficult it is to make an anti-tank rifle."
"Didn't our repair shop only rely on the parts of the rifle itself to carry out some simple repairs at the beginning?
But what about now? Let alone repairing firearms, we can even make our own artillery, what else can be difficult for us?"
"Not to mention, Germany already has its own anti-tank rifle. If we had such a rifle in hand, would the Japanese junk tanks still dare to be arrogant in front of us?"
Speaking of this, Kong Jie changed the topic:
"Of course, it would be too difficult for you to directly build our own anti-tank rifle. Let's take the first step now."
"Create a specially constructed bullet that our ordinary rifles can fire to achieve the purpose of armor penetration."
Dong San was startled for a moment and asked: "Captain, what are your specific ideas?"
Dong San attaches great importance to the opinions put forward by regiment leader Kong Jie on the military industry.
Almost no one knows how much unknown knowledge the regiment leader has in his belly. This is already the consensus of the entire first detachment soldiers.
Kong Jie explained: "At the moment, we do not have advanced equipment and sufficient technical support to build our own anti-tank rifle."
"Then the point where we can think of ways to transform it lies in the bullet."
"Let's first think about what the power of a bullet depends on. It depends on the caliber of the bullet itself, the amount of ammunition added, that is, the speed of the bullet, plus the hardness that the material of the bullet itself can bring, so that the final result can be achieved.
The killing, or penetrating effect."
"We can try to change the material used in the warhead, use more indestructible materials, and at the same time increase the charge to increase the exit speed of the warhead."
"In this way, the warhead has a higher mass and a faster flying speed. According to the kinetic energy formula W=(1/2)mv2, it is obvious that kinetic energy is only related to mass and speed, and speed has a greater impact on kinetic energy, then
The greater its kinetic energy."
"As long as the warhead is hard enough, it can ensure that the warhead can maintain its shape when in contact with the tank armor, so kinetic energy will not be wasted and the kinetic energy can be converted into the penetration of the bullet to the maximum extent."
"In this way, we can even kill the driver of the Japanese tank with one shot through the armor. The Japanese armor is useless."
Dong San listened carefully and tried to understand. Finally, looking at Kong Jie talking eloquently, he couldn't help but say:
