In the evening, the heads of various departments in the arsenal came to Director Xu’s office and started today’s meeting.
Before coming to the office, Engineer Qi and the others didn't understand what was going on. There had been many meetings in the arsenal, but most of the meetings were just to summarize the relevant situations of various departments in the arsenal during this period. There was a sudden meeting today.
Could it be that there was some order issued by the headquarters?
"Genzi, when did you come here? It's so early." Foreman Qi saw Liu Gen and said hello with a smile.
With a smile on his face, Liu Gen quickly stood up and replied to Foreman Qi. He came so early because he had nothing to do. Otherwise, he would definitely be like Foreman Qi and others after today's work.
Just arrived. In order not to affect the normal work of the arsenal, the meeting was held at ten o'clock in the evening, which is almost the time when all departments of the arsenal stopped working.
At this time, most workers will go back to their rooms to rest. They are still very tired after working all day.
After everyone came to the office, the meeting held because of Liu Gen started simply. Knowing that everyone was very tired after work, Director Xu simply explained the reason for the meeting. After knowing that it was because of Liu Gen,
After Gen designed the rocket launcher and wanted to produce the rocket launcher in the arsenal, Foreman Qi and others couldn't help but look at Liu Gen.
Compared with Factory Director Xu who didn’t know much about Liu Gen, Engineer Qi and others knew Liu Gen very clearly. They all knew Liu Gen’s abilities. Even if Liu Gen designed the rocket launcher, Engineer Qi and others would not know much about Liu Gen.
There wasn't much surprise. Maybe the only thing they were surprised about was why this meeting was still held.
"Director Xu, we all know Genzi's ability. Since he designed the rocket launcher, why not let him make some and let us see the power of the rocket launcher."
"Yes, only by letting Genzi manufacture the rocket launchers can we judge whether the rocket launchers are worth producing. If the rocket launchers are not powerful enough and are not suitable for our Eighth Route Army's battles, then they will not be produced. Only a few rocket launchers will be manufactured for use.
Try it out, our arsenal still has this capability."
"..."
The heads of each department headed by Engineer Qi expressed their thoughts. They all carefully looked at the rocket launcher drawings passed to them. From the drawings, they could see the difference between rocket launchers and ordinary artillery. From Liu
Judging from the design on the drawings, they can see many shortcomings of the rocket launcher, but the advantages of the rocket launcher are also quite obvious. Based on Liu Gen's shooting, the rocket launcher has certain advantages in mountain combat.
Compared with the Japanese mountain artillery, rocket launchers will undoubtedly be lighter in weight and easier to transfer. For the Eighth Route Army units, what they need is easy transfer and they have great requirements for flexibility.
In normal guerrilla operations, soldiers will carry grenades with them, but not mortars. Even when Liu Gen took out the mortar gun paper, he had already chosen a relatively lightweight mortar.
guns, but the mortars were still a little too heavy for the soldiers, who needed to be lighter.
It is precisely because of this that there has always been a big gap in the grenade launchers imitating the Japanese in the arsenal, and all the troops want to get more grenade launchers. It has to be said that weapons like grenade launchers are very convenient in guerrilla warfare.
, especially suitable for the guerrilla operations of the Eighth Route Army troops.
Director Xu also directly confirmed the matter after discovering that the heads of various departments in the arsenal had no objections to the manufacture of rocket launchers. He chose to hold a meeting because he was just worried that the heads of various departments in the arsenal would have objections. If he had known this,
Then Director Xu will definitely ask Liu Gen to make a few rocket launchers.
After all, rocket launchers are a novel weapon for all units of the Eighth Route Army, and it is not that easy to truly create weapons that suit the Eighth Route Army. Manufacturing a few rocket launchers early can also determine whether the rocket launcher designed by Liu Gen is
There is sufficient manufacturing value.
At the end of the meeting, Liu Gen was very satisfied with the result. As long as he could produce a few rocket launchers first, he would be sure that the rocket launchers would become the new favorite among the Eighth Route Army troops.
However, Liu Gen also knows that even if rocket launchers are recognized, large-scale production is impossible. Rocket launchers are good, but they are not without shortcomings. Besides, if the arsenal wants to produce rocket launchers on a large scale, there is simply no supply of steel.
, in terms of production, the steel required to produce rocket launchers may be less than that of artillery.
"Genzi, why are you walking so fast? How did your brain grow? You can actually shoot a rocket launcher. Did you see some information?" Foreman Qi came to Liu Gen's side, a little curious.
asked.
As the head of the lathe engineering department, Foreman Qi was exposed to a lot of information. He had seen something about the Soviet Big Brother equipping rocket launchers before. But at that time, Foreman Qi didn't take it to heart. The Soviet Big Brother
It was good, but it was still too far away for him. Compared with paying attention to the equipment of the Soviet big brother, Foreman Qi was more concerned about the machine tools of the Lathe Engineering Department.
"Foreman Qi, you are right. I just saw the news about the Soviet big brother equipping rocket launchers."
"I think that since the big brother of the Soviet Union is equipped with rocket launchers, then the rocket launchers must be valued by the big brother of the Soviet Union. After carefully understanding the relevant information of rocket launchers, I found that rocket launchers are quite good. In future wars, they will be very useful.
It may become an important weapon to suppress the enemy's ground firepower!" After thinking briefly, Liu Gen gave the answer.
Foreman Qi was still a little confused, but looking at Liu Gen who looked confident, he couldn't help but believe Liu Gen's judgment. After careful calculation, Liu Gen seemed to have made no mistakes. Judging from the drawings of the rocket launcher, the manufacturing
It's not easy to produce a few rocket launchers.
With the rocket launcher designed by Liu Gen, as long as there are no problems in actual combat, even if the rocket launcher will become an important weapon for fire suppression in wars in the future, it can be equipped in the army in a short time.
"Genzi, your idea is good. Some things are still uncertain. When you build the rocket launcher and verify it in actual combat, the rocket launcher will definitely get the attention of the bosses." Foreman Qi encouraged Liu Gen. He was willing to
I believe in the judgment of this young man Liu Gen.
Liu Gen was a little touched. Foreman Qi had always taken good care of him, and now he was more willing to believe in himself. It felt so good to be trusted. He looked at Foreman Qi in front of him and quietly suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart.
Before Liu Gen and Engineer Qi could say anything, the heads of other departments of the arsenal also came to him, and each of them gave their own encouragement. To be able to become the heads of various departments of the arsenal, these people are very discerning.
Yes, plus Liu Gen had performed very well in their department before, so they were naturally willing to give Liu Gen a few words of encouragement.
In the arsenal, Liu Gen is very valued. Among young people, Liu Gen's performance is the most outstanding. Liu Gen's technical ability is also very good. For this, Foreman Qi and others are very clear about this. Compared with them,
Bi, maybe being young is Liu Gen’s biggest problem.
When Liu Gen was not at the arsenal, Engineer Qi and the others had talked about Liu Gen. Everyone had a very good impression of Liu Gen, and they all agreed that when Liu Gen grows up, he will be able to easily support an arsenal.
No, just a few days after Liu Gen returned to the arsenal, he took out a lot of design drawings of machine tools, and even drawings of new weapons such as rocket launchers. If you want to find a young man in the arsenal who can compare with Liu Gen, it is
Something that is simply impossible,
Even Kong Jue, who performed very well before Liu Gen came to the arsenal, is now unable to compare with Liu Gen. This can only mean that Liu Gen has grown too fast.
After bidding farewell to Foreman Qi and others, Liu Gen quickly returned to his room. After sitting down, his face was full of excitement. Liu Gen was particularly excited when he thought that he would start manufacturing rocket launchers tomorrow.
He clearly knew how powerful the rocket launcher was, and every time he thought about having to build such a powerful weapon with his own hands, he couldn't calm down.
After sitting for half an hour, Liu Gen found that he still couldn't calm down, and he didn't feel sleepy at all. Seeing this, Liu Gen ran out of the room and did a few sets of Bajiquan in the dark, and then put his
The mood calms down.
Returning to the room and sitting on the stool, Liu Gen recalled his previous excitement and couldn't help but lament that he was still a young man and would inevitably be excited.
Finding paper and pen, Liu Gen started drawing seriously while his energy was still good. He was going to draw a clearer drawing of the rocket launcher manufacturing, marking the places and steps that needed attention.
Liu Gen chose to do this because he knew that he would not stay in the arsenal for too long. While he was there, there would naturally be no problems in producing rocket launchers. But once Liu Gen left the arsenal, problems would arise in the production of rocket launchers.
trouble.
It's not that Liu Gen has no confidence in the workers at the arsenal, but that he feels that rocket launchers are a new weapon. The workers have not been exposed to rocket launchers for long enough, and it is difficult for them to truly understand rocket launchers.
With enough physical support, Liu Gen successfully completed the drawings after working all night. Compared with the previous drawings Liu Gen showed to Director Xu and others, the drawings drawn by Liu Gen this time were clearer.
, some details have been added.
And, the most important thing is that Liu Gen wrote detailed information such as the working principle of the rocket launcher and some design concepts on the drawing. As long as Liu Gen can understand all the drawings he made, it will be easy to become a rocket launcher.
experts.
Of course, this is also because in this era, rocket launchers have just begun to develop, so it is not difficult to master relevant knowledge.
After having breakfast in the cooking class, Liu Gen hurried towards his artillery department. This time, the rocket launcher will be manufactured in the rocket launcher. Because the artillery department has certain dangers, the artillery department and the arsenal are completely separate.
In the direction, the arsenal area is closest to the east cliff, while the artillery department is under the west cliff.
Walking into the artillery department, Liu Genneng found someone working here. He thought he was the first to arrive, but who knew there was someone earlier than him.
After arriving at the worker who was polishing the gun barrel, Liu Gen was slightly startled. He recognized the worker as Kong Jue. Just looking at Kong Jue in front of him, Liu Gen couldn't believe his eyes. It was really Kong Jue.
Jue has changed a little too much.
Kong Jue has grown a long beard, which looks a bit messy because he has not taken care of it. On Kong Jue's face, Liu Gen can see thick dark circles under the eyes and a slight paleness. Compared with when Liu Gen left the arsenal before, Kong Jue's face looked a bit messy.
Jue has lost a lot of weight. In just a few months, Kong Jue has changed so much.
"Brother Kong Jue, are you staying here at night?" Liu Gen asked.
Kong Jue stopped polishing the barrel and raised his head to see Liu Gen. When he found out it was Liu Gen, his eyes suddenly lit up. After Liu Gen left the arsenal, Kong Jue encountered many problems and asked for advice on some questions.
Foreman Qi and others finally got answers, but there were some questions that even Foreman Qi and others couldn't give accurate answers to.
Now that Liu Gen is back, it's time to answer the questions Kong Jue has accumulated.
"Well, I've been staying here to rest. Staying here can save some time. Come, I have a lot of questions to ask you, and I hope to get answers from you." Kong Jue directly reached out and grabbed Liu Gen. It seemed that
I am not ready to let Liu Gen go easily.
Liu Gen looked at Kong Jue in silence. Maybe some people thought Kong Jue was stupid, but in Liu Gen's view, Kong Jue deserved his respect. In the arsenal, there were many people like Kong Jue. They
Seize all the time to study and improve, so that you can contribute more to the arsenal.
"As long as I know, I will tell you everything." Liu Gen sat directly next to Kong Jue with a serious look on his face.
Seeing that Liu Gen was willing to answer for himself, Kong Jue's face was full of joy. He did not waste time and kept seizing the time to speak out the questions he had accumulated. He knew that he would not have too much time left for himself.
…
After breakfast, workers kept running out of the artillery department, calling more workers to the artillery department. Most of the workers couldn't help but stay in the artillery department after hearing Liu Gen's answers to Kong Jue's questions.
Ministry.
In less than half an hour, the artillery department was filled with people, and even Foreman Qi and others were alarmed.
Originally, when they learned that workers from their own department had gone to the Artillery Department, Foreman Qi and the others were a little confused as to how the Artillery Department could attract workers from their department. But when Foreman Qi and the others came to the Artillery Department in person
, but I understood why the Artillery Department was able to attract so many workers.
It seemed that Liu Gen was answering questions for Kong Jue, but in fact, after Liu Gen saw more and more workers in the artillery department, he went into further detail, including a lot of detailed explanations.
Even these workers can understand it.
Perhaps because he has been teaching artillery school students, he is able to do a very good job when explaining and can better understand what he is talking about.
It is also because of this that the Artillery Department attracts so many workers and makes them reluctant to leave.
