Almost everything on the production line is handled by Mao Xiong.
Later, Wang Xuexin learned that they were working really hard to get the rifle as soon as possible. They transported two batches of experts to work in two shifts of 12 hours each. They worked day and night to set up the production line in just one week.
Then proceed to trial production.
And Menlokov and his communications team have been waiting at Liyuan Airport... They don't want to waste any time. Once the bullet production meets the requirements, he will immediately get the rifle and rush back to Mao Xiong.
Therefore, Mao Xiong even has a transport plane on standby at Liyuan Airport.
It is hard to imagine that when the war was in full swing and Mao Xiong was in such short supply of resources, a transport plane would be sent to Liyuan Airport on standby and stay there for more than ten days.
However, in Wang Xuexin's opinion, this is a very smart behavior: for the AK47, these sacrifices are worth it.
It is said that when Kalashnikov designed this rifle, Mao Xiong paid no attention to it at all, but after some setbacks, it finally attracted the attention of the authorities.
This attitude is completely different from the treatment Wang Xuexin received.
This is not to say that Mao Xiong does not value this kind of rifle, but that they do not believe that Kalashnikov, who was still an unknown person at the time, can design such a difficult gun.
But Wang Xuexin is different. Wang Xuexin developed X2, a device that is difficult to change the air combat mode and has been tested and useful in actual combat.
More importantly, the Eighth Route Army also used this rifle to win battles on the battlefield.
Therefore, Mao Xiong has great confidence in Wang Xuexin and this rifle and is also full of expectations.
Then, that day, Wang Xuexin was directing the airport repair work. When Monrokov arrived, he hurried to Wang Xuexin. His face was red with excitement. He was panting heavily and out of breath and reported to Wang Xuexin: "Regiment...
Comrade leader, the production line... produced 10,000 rounds of ammunition, and... successfully passed the acceptance inspection!"
Wang Xuexin said "Oh", seemingly unfazed but secretly happy that he finally figured this thing out.
Now, with guns and bullets, it will not be a problem for the Eighth Route Army to hold the line of defense.
In addition, there are the copper mines in Zhongtiao Mountain and the iron mines and steel plants in Daqingshan. What else can stop the development of the Eighth Route Army?!
But Wang Xuexin is still waiting. He is waiting for Zhang Zongping's report.
Not long after, the communications soldier handed a telegram to Wang Xuexin.
The telegram was sent by Zhang Zongping. Although it only contained a few simple words, Zhang Zongping's excitement could be seen: "Commander, 10,000 rounds of ammunition have successfully passed the acceptance inspection! If necessary, you can try another 10,000 rounds."
hair!"
Wang Xuexin thinks this is not necessary.
If there is no problem after firing 10,000 rounds of ammunition, the probability of another problem is low.
Besides, no one can guarantee that there will be no problems in the future. This is a problem of production maintenance and use by Mao Xiong technicians.
But of course, this production line should be controlled by Chinese people as much as possible, otherwise I feel a little uneasy if it is controlled by others.
Later, Wang Xuexin realized that his worries in this regard were completely unnecessary.
Su Xin had considered this a long time ago, so after contacting Zhang Zongping, she brought a group of technicians from the Sanjiadian Arsenal to Xinheba to assist the Mao Xiong technicians in setting up the production line... To say that they were assisting was actually to steal from them, from beginning to end.
How to install, how to produce, what problems to pay attention to, how to troubleshoot simple faults, etc., all are clearly remembered.
It can be said that even if Mao Xiong withdraws its technical personnel now, it will not affect the production of the Eighth Route Army's intermediate-power bombs.
This is not to say that the technicians of the Eighth Route Army learned quickly, but that these technicians originally operated the bullet production lines of Eagle Sauce in three stores.
As the saying goes, it's the same bullet production line. Although the machine tools are different and the specifications are different, the principles are the same, so I quickly mastered the essence of Mao Xiong's production line.
Lai Menluokov hurriedly urged: "Comrade leader, can you hand over the repeating rifle to us now?"
Wang Xuexin nodded: "One hundred repeating rifles are already in the warehouse. You can pick them up at any time. Do you need to check them for acceptance?"
"No need!" Laimenluokov replied excitedly: "I believe you, comrade leader!"
With that said, he waved and led his men to run towards the warehouse. After running a few steps, he turned back and waved to Wang Xuexin: "Happy cooperation, comrade leader! I am returning to China this time and may not be able to come back for a while. I wish you the best."
all the best!"
"Bon voyage!" Wang Xuexin waved to him, feeling a little surprised.
Originally, he thought that when he came to Monrokov, he took the rifle back to the General Counsel, but he didn't expect that he would fly directly to Mao Xiong.
After thinking about it, I think this is right.
At this time, the Japanese were still attacking the stubborn troops, and Chongqing was also being bombed fiercely. If they flew back to Chongqing with such an important repeating rifle... wouldn't that add some variables?
What's more, there is no need to do this. Liyuan enters Mongolia not far to the north and then enters the territory of Mao Xiong. With such a safe route here, who would choose to fly to Chongqing first?
only……
Wang Xuexin then thought that Mao Xiong's Battle of Stalingrad was about to begin, and it might not be a good idea to return home now.
Wang Xuexin didn't need to worry about this. He watched Mao Xiong's transport plane roaring from the airport and then flew north toward the clouds, finally disappearing from sight.
I thought to myself, I wonder what changes the early appearance of AK47 will bring to the battlefield?
Maybe it will cause a series of chain reactions, or maybe nothing will change.
After all, while Wang Xuexin was working hard to develop something here, the enemy seemed to be accelerating the pace of upgrading its military industry.
This seems weird because that's not how history works.
For example, the Japanese "Sakura Bomb" should not have appeared at this time, and the "Human Missile" appeared out of nowhere. It is a combination of Hans' technology and the Japanese "artificial intelligence".
But thinking about it more carefully, Wang Xuexin felt that it was normal.
As the saying goes, "The Tao is as high as the devil."
War is actually a kind of competition between the enemy and ourselves using all our strength. Neither the enemy nor we allow ourselves to fail, because failure means collapse, death or even the subjugation of the country.
Therefore, when an opponent has advanced equipment, the Japs will try their best to find equipment that can compete with it to avoid being passively beaten.
More importantly, the new equipment proposed by the opponent also serves as a reminder to the Japanese and even the whole world: It turns out that equipment can be made this way.
So over time, countries with stronger industrial bases will learn and even catch up in some aspects.
However, Wang Xuexin believes that he still has an advantage.
Because he is the one running at the front, and everyone else is chasing after him.
What he wants is this advantage, and then he can use this advantage to defeat the Japanese!
