"Oh, this is what I brought here specifically to show you, the new gun that just came off the production line in the production bureau."
Liu Wen took off the rifle from his back and presented his hands to Ruhua, who handed it to Ren Pingsheng.
"This gun is considered a second-generation product. Compared with the first generation, it has some improvements."
Ren Pingsheng listened to Liu Wen's words and took a closer look at the gun body. The parts on the gun body no longer had the rough burrs that had been processed before, and were very smooth to the touch.
The bolt was pulled.
There was a "click" and the collision of metal was very crisp.
"Yes, the bolt is more comfortable to load."
The gun bolt has been changed from the previous straight line to the current curved shape. After loading, it will not affect people's sight when it is clicked, and it will not roll back and forth when carried on the back.
Liu Wen introduced: "This batch of new guns has not only changed some gun body structures. With the improvement of technology, the stability and accuracy of this batch of rifles are much better than the first batch of rifles.
However, this batch of guns has not been mass-produced for the time being. Now the production lines and workers have focused all their energy on the production of 75mm shells and shotgun bullets."
"Um."
Ren Pingsheng nodded, put the rifle on the table, and said: "The cannonball matter is important, it is the key to this battle."
Liu Wen took advantage of the situation and said: "The main raw materials of Qingcheng Iron and Steel Plant, iron ore and coal, are transported from Yunlong County and Guyi County. Now the trade routes in Yunlong County have been cut off, which is equivalent to cutting off the steel plant.
One leg directly affects the production capacity of the steel plant.
I propose that after we defeat the enemy this time, we can capture these two mines in the south of Yunlong County so that we can be self-sufficient in iron ore, coal and lime mines, and lay a solid foundation for future development.
Base."
Liu Wen said, stood up and walked to the wall where the check-in room was located, and drew a virtual circle with his finger on the hanging map.
"Can."
Ren Pingsheng nodded and agreed without much thought.
Fighting is for nothing more than profit.
For profit, the rebels captured Yinshan and wanted to capture Qingshui County to invade the south.
Since Yunlong County is of great benefit to him, Ren Pingsheng will not let it go. Moreover, the development of the steel plant occupies a very important position in Ren Pingsheng's plan.
"Thank you, lord!"
Liu Wen stood up, bowed to Ren Pingsheng and said.
"Shaowen is dedicated to serving the public, there is no need to be like this."
Ren Pingsheng stood up and grabbed the gun on the table: "Ruhua, take the bullet, let's go out and try the gun."
Ruhua walked to the cabinet next to him, pulled out a box, took out a handful of yellow-orange bullets, and then quickly followed Ren Pingsheng.
The three of them went out and arrived at the courtyard of the county government office.
The area across the courtyard was quite large, so Ren Pingsheng ordered the boy to bring a wooden mannequin used for practicing exercises and place it in the distance as a model.
About 30 meters away, Ren Pingsheng picked up the rifle and pressed the bullet into the magazine.
"This batch of rifles has optimized the magazine structure and can hold 7 bullets, which also reduces the chance of the rifle jamming."
Liu Wen introduced from the side.
Ren Pingsheng had quickly stuffed the bullet into the magazine, pulled the bolt, and pulled the trigger towards the wooden dummy in the distance.
"Pack"
The sound of gunfire is still the same as before.
With a "poof~", sawdust flew from the wooden man's chest, and he was hit all over.
"Pa Gou, Pa Gou, Pa Gou..."
Ren Pingsheng continuously pulled the bolt of the gun, and the muzzle kept spraying flames. The wooden man in the distance, his eyebrows, arms, legs, and lower abdomen all withstood the bullets, and holes appeared one after another.
"Yes, the shooting experience, accuracy, and smoothness have been improved somewhat."
Ren Pingsheng commented.
This gun may still be inferior in terms of accuracy, rate of fire, stability and reliability, but its smoothness of use is already comparable to my own 56 semi-automatic.
"When this battle is over, the Manufacturing Bureau will design another optical sight as the aiming module of the rifle. I think with the accuracy of this rifle, it can already be used as a sniper rifle."
Ren Pingsheng handed the rifle to Ruhua.
Ruhua took the rifle and felt the cold touch of the walnut and catalpa wood on the gun body and the iron parts. Her heart couldn't help but beat a few times with excitement.
Liu Wen said: "This gun is still unable to be mass-produced on a large scale. The main reason is that the production of bullets is insufficient."
"Then wait until after the war to produce the first batch and supply it to the Night Owl Organization and the Divine Arrow Division. Their demand for firearms is very high."
Ren Pingsheng currently has no higher requirements for weapons.
At least in terms of mass-produced standard weapons, they have completely crushed the imperial army and their rebel counterparts. If the weapons were designed to be more sophisticated, it would cause unnecessary congestion and waste of resources due to higher costs.
However, because of the existence of warriors and strangers, Ren has a strong demand for high-end weapons. It is also very necessary for these high-end weapons to be supplied to the Night Owl Organization and the Divine Arrow Division, which deal directly with warriors and strangers.
of.
Moreover, as long as these high-end weapons are developed and used as technical reserves, they can be put into production as soon as possible if necessary in the future.
After testing the guns, the two returned to the check-in room.
Liu Wen and Ren Pingsheng reported on some of the achievements made by the Ministry of Industry in the past two months, some recent plans, and some of the difficulties they encountered.
Finally, Liu Wen left Ren Pingsheng's room with a relaxed expression.
In Liu Wen's heart, Ren Pingsheng is a very trustworthy and admirable lord. He seems to have knowledge far beyond this world, and has an overall view and an extremely broad vision that surpasses everyone else. Both his ability and vision are far beyond
worldly people.
For things that I find extremely difficult and have struggled with for a long time, I can often easily get answers and directions after talking to my lord, and there may even be more than one answer or direction.
Whether it is the help of knowledge, the inclination of resources, or the privilege of doing things for him, the problem can always be solved easily!
Following such a lord, he felt that this was a lucky thing!
"Master, I, I want to try this gun, okay?"
After Liu Wen left, Ruhua did not put down the rifle. Instead, he looked at Master Ren expectantly and asked hesitantly.
"Okay, maybe we can have a goddess shooter in Qingshui County."
Ren Pingsheng noticed Wuhua's expression just now and said: "But firearms are not something else. If you are not careful, you will hurt other people's lives.
If you want to use a gun, you must pay attention to the rules of use. With this thing, Alan can find someone to teach you. The intelligence team has many female shooters with good marksmanship."
"Okay! Thank you, sir!"
Ruhua received the master's approval and was extremely happy.
The arm holding the rifle became harder.
Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here.
While the two were talking, Alan came over with a telegram.
She came to report Liu Heima's movements.
"So Liu Heima has gathered his supplies and is ready to head south?"
Ren Pingsheng asked after listening to Alan's report.
"Yes, according to the distance between Le County and Qingshui County, it takes about 5 days to reach Nanmen Town or Zhouji Town in Yunlong County."
Nanmen Town and Zhouji Town are both places bordering Qingshui County.
Nanmen Town is adjacent to Beibu Town in Qingshui County, and Zhouji Town is adjacent to Qingcheng Town in Qingshui County.
However, Zhouji Town is located next to Yunlong Mountain and is considered a mountainous market town with difficult roads. It is unlikely that the Beiwan rebels would choose to go through Zhouji Town.
Ren Pingsheng ordered: "Always pay attention to Liu Heima's movements, and report the news to Chief Liu and Minister Xiaowan at any time."
"yes!"
Alan nodded in response.
After Alan left, Ren Pingsheng felt that the war was coming. While most people's attention was attracted by the war, it was time to carry out what he had always wanted to do!
This is also to clear obstacles and lay a foundation for the healthy growth of our political power in the future.
