Seeing that Su Xin was about to put down her chopsticks and stand up, Zhang Wanhe quickly changed the subject: "How about we talk about business while Xiao Dongbei is here?"
The directors hurriedly answered:
"That's right, let's get down to business!"
"It's rare to come to Xiaodongbei. If you don't tell me, you won't have the chance!"
…
These words reminded Su Xin that Xiao Dongbei was still a guest after all. She was half the owner of the arsenal, and it was a rare visit. It was inappropriate for her to lose her temper, so she glared at Xiao Dongbei and said nothing.
"This is what happened!" Zhang Wanhe said: "So far, the troops equipped with rocket launchers and directional mines have responded very well, but after the tactical summary, the soldiers put forward several opinions."
As he spoke, Zhang Wanhe raised his head towards Su Xin and said, "Director Su, can you tell me?"
This is not because Zhang Wanhe pretended to be Gongji's personal quarrel with Su Xin and Wang Xuexin, but because Zhang Wanhe is old and has a bad memory. Su Xin not only works carefully, but also fully considers the production and equipment status of the equipment. These things have always been done by
She is responsible.
Su Xin is a person who distinguishes between public and private affairs. Although she was a little unhappy just now, she completely forgot about her work when she talked about it. She continued: "There are mainly two aspects. One is to solve the problem of smoke bombs. The rocket launcher has a short range.
High, a lot of smoke is needed during combat, and although the method of adding rubber and gasoline can solve part of the problem, it is very inconvenient!"
Wang Xuexin nodded in agreement. He was the one who made the rubber and gasoline. He only used it when there was no way to use smoke bombs.
Using this thing to fight has the disadvantages of being slow to smoke, easy to expose and carry, and inconvenient to replenish.
"Do we have the conditions to imitate smoke bombs?" Wang Xuexin asked.
"It's not a big problem!" Su Xin replied: "We took apart the Japs' 11-year-old smoke bombs and copied them. The Fifth Factory can also produce white phosphorus. The difference is that the Japs' smoke bombs can be thrown by hand or grenades.
Canister-fired, we plan to design another smoke bomb for the 50 cannon. Is it okay to do this?"
After saying this, Su Xin turned her attention to Wang Xuexin.
Wang Xuexin understood what Su Xin meant. Another function of smoke grenades on the battlefield is to hit the enemy tank near it, making it more difficult for tank crews with poor vision to see the target.
At this time, the hand-throwing distance is not enough, and it is necessary to use the 50 small cannon to launch, so the cooperation of one far and one close can solve the problem of releasing smoke.
After thinking for a while, Wang Xuexin replied: "If it's the Japanese, there will be no problem, but we will have a problem!"
"How do you say that?" Zhang Wanhe was a little confused.
The 50 cannon is an imitation of the Japs grenade. The Japs fired smoke bombs by throwing them by hand and using a grenade. The Eighth Route Army was divided into hand throwing and 50 cannons. How could there be a problem!
Other branch factory directors were also puzzled.
Wang Xuexin explained: "Although these smoke bombs can be fired by hand throwing and 50 small artillery fire at both distances and distances, and they are both smoke bombs, our purpose is different from that of the Japanese..."
When Su Xin heard this, she said "Oh" and understood: "The purpose is different, the requirements for equipment are different, but we are still using similar equipment to fight!"
"That's what it means!" Wang Xuexin added: "The Japs' smoke bombs are used to set fires or provide cover for infantry charges when necessary. They do not require much coordination and precise smoke points. But our smoke bombs
The ammunition is used by rocket launcher shooters to get close to tanks. Tanks are always moving and fighter planes are fleeting, so there are higher requirements for coordination, smoke point and time!"
(Note: The Japanese Type 11 smoke bombs have arson function)
"I understand!" Wu Jin said: "The 50-gun cannon has a range of five hundred meters, and the rocket launcher needs to be about fifty meters close to the target to launch. When the rocket launcher shooter needs to release smoke somewhere in front, there is no time to tell the gunner behind.
!”
Everyone nodded, convinced of Wang Xuexin.
This was decided after their discussion. I thought there would be no problem, but I didn't expect that Xiao Dongbei saw the problem as soon as I brought it up.
Su Xin said happily: "So, we not only need to design smoke bombs for the 50 cannon, but also smoke bombs for the rocket launcher."
Then Su Xin turned her gaze to Wang Xuexin and said, "Is there no problem this time, Comrade Wang Xuexin?"
Wang Xuexin replied: "Everyone knows it, why do you need to say it?"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Su Xin is right. If the rocket launcher can also fire smoke bombs, it can hit wherever it wants. There will be no coordination difficulties. At the same time, its range for firing smoke bombs is also sufficient... Smoke bombs do not require high accuracy.
Zhang Wanhe nodded happily, secretly thinking that Xiao Dongbei was different from the people who rolled out on the battlefield.
otherwise……
The arsenal will eventually discover the problem, but it will take some time for the 50 small artillery to be put into use, and the frontline soldiers will feedback the problem and say why it is inconvenient. Only then will the arsenal think of using the rocket launcher directly.
I don’t know how many comrades have been sacrificed during this period!
Su Xin glanced at Wang Xuexin unconvinced and said, "The second problem is that directional mines are easily discovered by the enemy and detonated in advance. I don't believe you can still do it!"
This is indeed a problem, and Wang Xuexin also encountered it on the battlefield.
The Eighth Route Army's directional mines used black powder, which was easy to explode. Once discovered by the enemy, they only needed to hit it with a rifle from a distance to trigger it in advance.
(Note: Modern directional mines using tnt.tnt are very safe. They cannot be detonated by bullets or even fire. They need to be detonated with a detonator)
This renders many directional mines on the battlefield ineffective.
However, it is unrealistic to use TNT to produce directional mines. The Fifth Factory can indeed produce TNT, but the output is less than smokeless gunpowder, and it is not enough to equip the troops in large quantities.
Wang Xuexin laughed and replied: "Isn't this very simple? The reason why it was blown up by the enemy is because it is easy to be discovered by the enemy. Isn't it okay if we don't let it be discovered?"
"How could it not be discovered?" Su Xin asked, "It would be useless if it were buried underground!"
"Who said it would be useless if buried underground?" Wang Xuexin asked rhetorically.
"Then, aren't they shot with steel balls?" Su Xin was a little anxious: "If it is buried underground, the steel balls cannot hit the front. How is it different from ordinary landmines?"
Wang Xuexin looked to the side, reached out and took a pen from Zhang Wanhe's desk, used the pen cover and pen to demonstrate and said: "We can divide the mine into two levels. When triggered, the next level will explode first, and the mine body will be destroyed."
It was ejected into the air, and then there was a "boom" sound... The steel ball didn't make a splash?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
Su Xin blinked and looked at Wang Xuexin with an expression of disbelief.
Zhang Wanhe didn't come back to his senses for a while.
This is a damn good thing, and it’s not difficult to make. How could only Xiao Dongbei think of it?
