Chapter 34 Building Confidence

Firearms, ammunition and weapons and equipment all cost nothing, but for a newly arrived chief of staff, there are many more things that need to be cleared up again. But the beginning of everything is naturally to solve the problem of weapons and equipment for the troops.

For the Lord, the Japanese are advancing very quickly now and will reach Shanxi soon.

Yan Xishan was very worried about the Japanese army, worried to the point of crying, and Kou's character was fully reflected in this aspect. The Central Army and the Red Army led by Wei Lihuang were already on their way to Shanxi. The importance of Shanxi Province to the Republic of China was unquestionable

.

"It's the right time for Yan Xishan to cry about poverty. The whole Shanxi is being run like an iron bucket. A needle can't be inserted and water can't be poured in. I thought he, Yan Xishan, was not afraid. It turns out that he also shows weakness sometimes."

"The purpose of sending troops to help Yan Xishan was obviously to help, but in fact it was to put a nail in the Central Army's hand in Shanxi. Although Pingjin fell and the Battle of Shanghai was imminent, it was beneficial to the overall situation of the War of Resistance."

South Korea has a meeting with the director, and the Shanghai Intelligence Bureau has withdrawn from Shanghai. Now the whole Shanghai is panicked, and there is a possibility of war at any time.

"The Japanese army has changed the secret code, which has made our deciphering work much more difficult, and it is even more difficult to obtain the pattern and specific time of the Japanese bombing of Shanghai."

This is a problem that has been bothering South Korea since the fall of Peking. The Japanese army used air superiority to carry out large-scale bombings on Shanghai. The purpose was to force the people of Shanghai to panic, and then force the Chinese army to withdraw from Shanghai. Due to various factors, the concessions

It has become the last piece of pure land, but this piece of pure land can hardly be saved.

"The committee has already figured it out and is preparing to give the Communist Party the establishment of three divisions. After so long, it has finally been figured out, so that the representatives in Nanjing can also give an explanation."

Although South Korea is no longer responsible for negotiation matters, how can specific projects be hidden from the Central Government? Even some conditions are still secretly controlled by the Central Government.

"The whole country is united, which is a good thing. However, this has always been a major concern for the country, and now we can only let it go."

If it weren't for the Japanese, South Korea would still be willing to find opportunities to get rid of its younger brother, because since it has entered this circle, it must be ruthless. The Communist Party has always been a rebel party, and the Kuomintang is China's future.

"All we can do now is patience, and only by patience can we win."

This was the first thing Han Cheng said when he came to his team. In fact, in this situation, it is useless to say anything. The station has been transferred from northern Shaanxi to Shanxi, and he will be faced with fighting the Japanese at any time. These faces in front of him

They didn't know what kind of enemy they were about to face, so they could only stand as straight as before, like tombstones.

"Our entire battalion is here, just waiting for your order."

"My orders are actually nothing. We go to the battlefields where we have fought to collect bullet casings, and the rest of us collect wine bottles. Then we use the money to buy some coking coal, which I will use to make steel."

The specific tasks were not explained to them in detail, because starting from scratch requires a process. First, you must establish your own prestige in the military. This is what my brother taught me.

"You...this is?"

"Of course I'm helping you. Look, everyone is holding a gun, and each of you is holding a big blade. Can you kill the Japanese?"

The army has now been reorganized into the Eighth Route Army of the National Government. With a unified designation, it is the official army of the country. This temporary name will be changed in September and will be officially named the Eighteenth Route Army. I hope the National Government will give

It's basically impossible for you to distribute firearms and supplies. It would be good if it doesn't hold you back.

The first batch of supplies obtained by the 129th Division did not have more than ten bullets for each person, and many of them were reloaded bullets, so their safety was quite problematic. But they still had to use them because they were what they could get.

The only batch of bullets.

Hancheng has to use his own ingenuity. The issue of ammunition is actually not difficult. At least during World War I, black powder weapons were still able to meet the needs and caused a lot of damage. If you think black powder weapons

The muzzle velocity of bullets is relatively low. In fact, there is another way, which is to add match heads to the black powder. The power is quite good.

Matches are a relatively versatile thing. Everything from propellant to ignition can be made with match heads. If the circulation of matches was not prohibited in Japanese-occupied areas, propellants comparable to the power of smokeless gunpowder could actually be made.

As for the warhead, I have consulted a lot of information on the design of the warhead in Nanjing, and even asked people from the Military Industry Administration for information. However, except for brass, there were not many suitable materials developed in China. Until one day, I

My brother brought back a bottle of Coca-Cola in a glass bottle. When the lid was opened, he gave himself a new idea.

In modern warfare, the armor-piercing function of bullets is actually useful, but for the current Eighth Route Army, the demand for lethality is actually greater than the armor-piercing ability. So Han Cheng came up with a warhead made of glass.

, in order to balance the weight of the warhead and give it a little armor-piercing performance, you can also add an iron nail to the warhead.

Glass will break when it encounters the human body. The exact number of pieces it breaks into depends on fate. If the warhead made by this soldier is very conscientious, then it will be a warhead that penetrates to the end. If it is not conscientious, it will shatter in the human body.

It has several petals, and it is not easy to take them all out.

In addition, there is the iron nail in the middle, which basically shows its lethality. The cartridge case still needs brass. If brass is not available, cupronickel is also acceptable. However, the transportation conditions of cupronickel are too difficult now, so brass is still needed.

The range that can be obtained is larger. China has experienced more than ten years of warlord melee, so naturally many discarded bullet casings can be collected.

Although the lethality is fully demonstrated, the armor-piercing performance has been weakened to almost nothing. If it encounters a steel helmet, it will be difficult to penetrate. This basically meets the needs. It is enough to penetrate the body and can attack the enemy.

Cause very serious injuries.

When the first sample was produced, hundreds of people looked at the transparent bullet in front of them. No one dared to underestimate such a thing. Especially after the test, at least a donkey was shot at a distance of 200 meters.

Damn it. A sample is a sample. After such samples made other soldiers aware of the size and manufacturing method, the entire battalion basically started a nationwide operation, collecting shell casings during the day and burning warheads at night.

With simple things, basically everyone knew that the chief of staff who came here was really capable and could be trusted.
