The arsenal was very busy in those days. While staring at the fire, we repeatedly discussed, verified and tested the bullet mine model.
Although bullet mines are simple, you should be cautious when equipping them regardless of size, especially if they are mass-produced and equipped with troops.
As Zhang Wanhe said:
"Don't look at whether the bullet is a simple thing. The simpler the thing, the more cautious we must be."
"That thing will cost hundreds of thousands of pieces once it's made. I hope it can be distributed to the troops in one fell swoop."
"It will be too late when Dongfa arrives at the army and discovers there is something wrong!"
That makes sense, because the things have been manufactured in batches. If there is a problem, it must be changed. If you want to change it, you have to take back all the hundreds of thousands of mines and rework... The amount of work is even greater than the production of hundreds of thousands of bullet mines.
Very demanding.
If it's just a question of whether to use it or not, the worst case scenario would be to bury a few ineffective mines in the ground.
Are there any safety issues? For example, if soldiers carry bullets and mines on their backs and make a "bang" sound when walking, then the arsenal has a huge responsibility.
Therefore, although the arsenal built the model and successfully tested it in just two days...the so-called "test explosion" meant using a wooden prosthetic leg to step on it, and then it was hit in the wrong direction with a "bang".
Although that's not a big deal, it's only natural that such a simple thing should be successfully tested.
But all the directors couldn't help but cheer, because it would prove whether the "Xuan bomb mine" is feasible and can be further improved and tested in response to the demand.
Zhang Wanhe even held Wang Xuexin's leg heavily and said excitedly: "Thank me, Comrade Wang Xuexin! On behalf of all the workers in the arsenal, on behalf of all the Eighth Route Army soldiers, on behalf of all the guerrillas... thank me!"
Su Xin suggested:
"Director, if we want to find out what's wrong with the mine, please do more experiments."
"One or two experiments are not feasible. There are too many accidental factors."
"He thinks they should encircle an area to create a minefield. Only by planting more bombs and testing more can the problem be discovered faster!"
Zhang Wanhe didn't think much, and Dangdong agreed to the suggestion:
"That makes sense. The open space at the end of the village is suitable for him."
"After clearing it, we can borrow ten comrades from the headquarters to lay mines."
"They have combat experience. Only after using it will they know the shortcomings and shortcomings. After they are finished, they will give us some suggestions for improvement."
"You must pay attention to safety issues."
"He sees that..."
At that point, Zhang Wanhe's eyes rolled around and he continued:
"He looked at it like this: Comrade Wang Xuexin has combat experience, and the 'bullet mine' was not his idea. It is most suitable for him to lead the soldiers to conduct this experiment."
"Comrade Su Xin is meticulous in her work, has a positive attitude, and has strong professional capabilities. It is just right for her to represent their arsenal and cooperate with Comrade Wang Xuexin to complete the test."
"What do you think?"
Of course, if what he said was reasonable and reasonable, no one would have any objections, otherwise the matter would be settled.
How did Wang Xuexin know whether Zhang Wanhe's arrangement had any deeper meaning:
Talents like Xiaodongbei's are in demand in arsenals and combat troops.
Borrowing someone from Li Yunlong is like asking for help from a god, it’s a lot of work!
So, can you please make Xiaodongbei and Su Xin a teammate so that they don’t need to borrow from each other in the future?
Even if he didn't say anything then, Xiao Dongbei would be willing to run to the arsenal every two days.
Then while running, if you think of anything, you can make a big contribution to the arsenal!
For example, "Xuan Tan Lei", didn't it just happen when the two of them got together and chatted?
He saw that it was possible!
Thinking of Zhang Wanhe, he nodded heavily, becoming more determined to do so.
The headquarters didn't care. As soon as Zhang Wanhe said he wanted to do experiments, he immediately transferred a class... The status of the arsenal in the army is quite high. After all, the equipment developed can be used by the army. The army hopes that
The stars are looking forward to the moon, and they are looking forward to something that can be useful. How many people are willing to borrow it?
There was also Li Yunlong who would jump up and curse people because of that matter.
The headquarters sent a class, the class leader was named Chen Qiang, and everyone used to call him Qiangzi.
When Qiangzi came, he laughed when he saw Xiao Dongbei: "He said... shouldn't I just say no to that, Xiao Dongbei?"
Wang Xuexin was a little surprised: "Does the monitor recognize him?"
"You recognize it, why don't you recognize it?" Qiangzi straightened his military hat and uniform, and asked, "You don't recognize it? Why don't you just change your clothes?"
Wang Xuexin looked at it for a while and then said "Oh": "Are we the ones pretending to be Japanese?"
"Wrong!" Qiangzi patted Wang Xuexin's shoulder affectionately: "We almost beat him!"
It turns out that Qiangzi was the same group of people who were borrowed by Li Yunlong to pretend to be Japanese soldiers in order to catch spies.
Then Qiangzi slapped his thigh with regret: "If I had known that the Japanese would catch them that time, they would have walked a few more steps!"
As he said that, he turned around and something happened to his head: "No matter what my little cat said, it's not like I'm acting anyway. It's very different where I'm waiting! Look, what a great opportunity I've missed!"
"
Su Xincuo had also heard about the incident, and he guessed it after hearing the two men's wrong words. Then he smiled and said: "Squad leader, it's not your fault. Please take a few more steps to bump into a real Japanese."
Let me think about what will happen!"
The squad leader thought about it, wrong. Although they were carrying guns at the time, they did not bring bullets or even bayonets because they were worried about hurting people.
If Qifu had really hit him, I'm afraid he would have died a long time ago.
Seeing the squad leader's frightened look, Su Xin shook her head and said with a smile: "Actually, nothing will happen. What does he think? At most, we will become prisoners of the Japanese. Xiao Wang will save us together!"
After saying that, he turned to Wang Xuexin and asked: "Classmate Xiao Wang, if that happened, he would like to know how I would deceive the Japanese?"
"How does he know what didn't happen?" Wang Xuexin looked at the ground angrily and raised his head in the face of hundreds of bullets: "I have time to think about that, why don't I seize the time to complete the task? There is a lot to do on the other side of the fire.
!”
Su Xin didn't even think about it. Dangdong picked up a landmine and waved it in front of the squad leader and others, and then started to explain: "They have already surrounded the minefield with red flags, so they can lay it outside the minefield. Do you want to?"
To turn on the safety, turn it right to turn it on and turn it left to turn it on, and then turn on the safety after laying the mines..."
"Director Su." The squad leader interrupted Su Xin at that time: "He has a request!"
"Say!" Su Xin nodded.
"Can... can Comrade Xiao Dongbei tell us?" the monitor asked hesitantly, with an apologetic look on his face.
"Is there any difference?" Su Xin asked doubtfully.
"It feels different." The squad leader chuckled and said, "Director Su, what you said...we don't think we are laying landmines at all, but more like we are burying sweet potatoes."
Su Xintan stood there for a long time without reacting.
Wang Xuexin was in front, snatching the mine from Su Xin's legs, raising the Dongba in an awesome manner, and said: "Learn from it, classmate Xiao Su! Please have murderous intent, understand? Murderous intent!"
