Chapter five hundred and thirteen local specialties
"Forger Liu, let me test the gun. You can just watch from the side." A soldier wanted to test the gun instead of Liu Gen.
Liu Gen shook his head directly. He chose to refuse. It would be better for him to test the gun. The submachine gun was modified by him based on the British Sten submachine gun. He is the person who knows this submachine gun best. When manufacturing submachine guns
During the process, Liu Genyou carefully observed the actions of Kong Jue and others. He could see that Kong Jue and others were very attentive. There should be no major problems with this submachine gun.
During the gun test, unless there are too serious problems with the gun, there will be no danger to life. With Liu Gen's ability, if there is any problem during the gun test, he can dodge it as quickly as possible.
Ensure your own safety.
"No need, let me be the first to test the first submachine gun produced by our arsenal." Liu Gen said with a smile.
When Kong Jue and others saw this, helplessness appeared on their faces. They knew Liu Gen would do this. As members of the Artillery Department, they knew something about Liu Gen's character. As long as it was Liu Gen's decision, then they would
It will not change easily. In the impression of Kong Jue and others, Liu Gen's decision has never been changed once.
Now, Kong Jue and the others can only hope that Liu Gen will not have any problems during the gun test, otherwise they will really be blamed for their deaths.
"Okay, let's all go further and keep a certain distance." Liu Gen said.
Under Liu Gen's order, even if Kong Jue and the others were unwilling, they could only obey Liu Gen's order and leave a certain distance to avoid accidents during the gun test. Kong Jue wanted to stay, he wanted to stay with Liu Gen
, the submachine gun was made by him and the workers from the artillery department. If there was any problem, he would stand in front of Liu Gen.
Kong Jue felt that even if he died, Liu Gen would not have any problems. He clearly understood Liu Gen's abilities and knew that Liu Gen could do more things than himself while alive.
"Bang bang bang" "Bang bang bang"
After carefully checking the submachine gun again, Liu Gen turned on the double safety and fired decisively. At first, he did not pull the trigger continuously, but again and again. The bullets continued to fly out of the muzzle and hit a stone two hundred meters away.
It left obvious potholes, and the power was not weak. After emptying out a magazine, Liu Gen reloaded, and this time he fired continuously.
During the continuous shooting process, Liu Gen could feel that the recoil of this submachine gun was not very strong. Ordinary soldiers should be able to withstand it. During the continuous shooting, there was no problem with the barrel and no jamming. This made Liu Gen very worried.
Satisfied. Compared with the MP40 submachine gun used by Liu Gen, it is not much different, but the cost of the two is hugely different.
Of course, the high cost has its own advantages. If the objective conditions allowed, then he would definitely be willing to equip all soldiers with MP40. Unfortunately, the Eighth Route Army did not have such conditions.
"Not bad! Let me load a few more magazines and see." Liu Gen praised and continued to try.
Considering the importance of this submachine gun, Kong Jue and others prepared five hundred rounds of ammunition during the test, which can be said to be a big deal. In the future, after the submachine gun is completed, certain test firings will also be carried out, but
It won't consume too many bullets. I'm afraid one magazine will be considered too much by then. There are fewer bullets for test firing, but Liu Gen still feels that this kind of test firing is necessary to ensure the quality of the submachine gun to a greater extent.
question.
Liu Gen did not use up all the test bullets he had prepared. After using up a few magazines, he asked Kong Jue and others to take over and let them feel the power of this submachine gun. Kong Jue and others were responsible for this submachine gun.
The creator must have wanted to experience the power of this submachine gun. Liu Gen naturally took this into consideration. He also wanted Kong Jue and others to find out the shortcomings of this submachine gun after the test firing.
areas that can be improved.
Half an hour later, the test firing was completely completed. Generally speaking, the performance of this submachine gun was very good. At least it only jammed once during the test firing. It was just the bullets used for the test firing that made Kong Jue and others feel a little distressed.
, the submachine gun is good and very powerful, but the extremely strong rate of fire of the submachine gun means that it is another large consumer of ammunition.
While the soldiers were cleaning up the scene and collecting bullet casings again, Liu Gen gathered Kong Jue and others together and wanted to ask them if they had found any problems with this submachine gun and what could be improved.
"Forger Liu, in my opinion, there is nothing wrong with this submachine gun and it can fully meet the needs of our troops."
"Yeah, there's no problem."
"..."
Kong Jue and others couldn't say anything. They had relatively few submachine gun exposures, so it was difficult to put forward constructive opinions. Liu Gen had no idea about this. He had the idea of improving the knowledge of Kong Jue and others.
, but all this takes time.
"This submachine gun has a lot of problems. I hope you can observe it carefully when you go back. This submachine gun still has a lot of room for improvement. I hope you can continue to improve this submachine gun and update it so that this submachine gun can keep up.
The speed of development of our Eighth Route Army troops." Liu Gen said solemnly.
With Liu Gen's ability, he can naturally clearly see the problems in this submachine gun and have corresponding solutions. However, he has no idea of speaking directly. Some things still need to be done by Kong Jue and others. What if?
Everything depends on Liu Gen, so how can Kong Jue and others make progress? Only if Kong Jue and others continue to grow is what Liu Gen wants to see.
Seeing the solemn look on Liu Gen's face, Kong Jue and others nodded vigorously, with deep determination in their eyes, "Forger Liu, we will definitely not let you down!"
Liu Gen nodded with satisfaction and said to Kong Jue and others again: "Comrades, our current conditions are very difficult, but I believe this is only short-lived and our future is infinitely bright. I hope to see everyone continue to
With your growth, in the future, any one of you can become an expert in all aspects."
"Perhaps your abilities are good now, but in my opinion, you all still have a lot of room for improvement and there are many things you can do. I hope you will not be immersed in your past achievements and continue to work hard to improve yourself.
If you have any questions or needs, you can come to me. As long as I can do it, I will definitely help everyone."
"..."
On this day, Liu Gen's speech was deeply engraved in the minds of Kong Jue and others. Whenever they were slack in their achievements, they would think of Liu Gen's words and inspire them to keep moving forward.
When Liu Gen returned to the arsenal with Kong Jue and others, Director Qi could see that the mental outlook of Kong Jue and others had changed a lot. There was not much joy on their faces, which made Director Qi a little bit agitated.
I suspect I got false news.
Factory Director Qi learned that Liu Gen and others had successfully manufactured a submachine gun, and wanted to see the related results. But the current situation made Director Qi couldn't help but worry about himself. Could it be that the submachine gun he had built appeared in the test firing?
question? Otherwise, how could there be no joy at all on the faces of Kong Jue and others?
"You go back first. You don't have to be so fast when making weapons and equipment. You must thoroughly understand these things." Seeing Factory Director Qi, Liu Gen ordered Kong Jue and others.
Kong Jue and others left quickly. They were somewhat ashamed. When Liu Gen asked if there was something wrong with the submachine gun, they could not say anything useful. Kong Jue and others were sure that since Liu Gen asked such a question, then the submachine gun
There must be some problems and enough room for improvement.
It's a pity that Kong Jue and others didn't see anything. How could they not feel any shame? Before starting to make the submachine gun, Kong Jue carefully checked the relevant design drawings, hoping to understand this submachine gun thoroughly in this way.
In two days, he felt that he had successfully eaten everything.
But now, Kong Jue realizes that he still has a lot to do. If he really understands it thoroughly, then the previous situation will not happen.
After Kong Jue and others left, Factory Director Qi became more and more worried. Could it be that something really went wrong? Director Qi felt a little heavy and couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Liu, is it true?"
What problems occurred during the gun test? How was it? Can it be solved?"
"Our branch factory has everything. As long as you ask, even if you are the Emperor of Japan, I will get it for you."
Liu Gen laughed, shook his head, and said with a smile: "Director Qi, I can't use the Emperor of Japan anymore. What's the use of him? It's a waste of food! There is no problem with the test firing of the submachine gun, and then there will be a large number of
It has been produced, but I don’t know how much can we produce at most based on the situation of our branch factory?”
There was obvious joy on Director Qi's face. As long as there were no problems with the submachine gun, it was enough to enter the stage of mass production. Just thinking about the situation in the first branch, the joy on Director Qi's face disappeared.
If we were to mass-produce submachine guns, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to produce many of them, only two hundred at most.
After all, it is impossible for the entire No. 1 branch factory to give up other production tasks in order to produce submachine guns. The No. 1 branch factory consumes a large amount of steel every day. Even if it produces two hundred submachine guns, it cannot be made in a short time.
, it will take at least a month, or even more.
"Two hundred at most, but more is a bit impossible. The arsenal's steel is limited, and large-scale production is difficult." Director Qi said helplessly.
Liu Gen was a little silent. There was still a gap between the number and his estimate. To be honest, two hundred guns were a little too little. With so many troops, two hundred submachine guns would be too few if they were allocated to various troops.
It is impossible to form sufficient combat effectiveness. But Liu Gen also knows that it is impossible to mass-produce submachine guns under the current conditions. If two hundred submachine guns are really counted, they can arm two or three troops.
"I understand, so let's temporarily produce two hundred of them. We can also discover the advantages and disadvantages of this submachine gun in actual combat, and use it as a reference for further improving this submachine gun." Liu Gen said in a deep voice.
Factory Director Qi nodded and said that there was no problem. Such a quantity was still within the range that the arsenal could bear. As long as there was enough time for production, enough submachine guns could be produced. In the opinion of Factory Director Qi, temporary production
Two hundred submachine guns are also beneficial. The production pressure that the arsenal needs to bear does not need to be so great, and it can also allow the arsenal to become familiar with and accumulate relevant production technologies.
When the arsenal needs to mass-produce this submachine gun, the arsenal will be much more relaxed. Without too much pressure, a sufficient production scale can be formed in a short time.
"I wonder what the name of this submachine gun is?" After a moment of silence, Director Qi asked with a smile.
Liu Gen shook his head, "In two days I am going to take this submachine gun back to the division headquarters and let the division commander and bosses have a look and let them name it."
After successfully manufacturing the submachine gun, Liu Gen knew that he would not stay in the arsenal for too long and he needed to return to the division headquarters. If he returned to the division headquarters early, Liu Gen could also do other things.
During this period of time, Liu Gen did a lot of things, but now there are not many things that Liu Gen needs to do in the first branch factory.
As for the problems that may arise in the first branch factory, just leave it to Kong Jue and others. I believe that after Liu Gen’s guidance, they will have enough ability to solve those problems. Unless it affects the operation of the first branch factory
It's a big problem, otherwise Liu Gen would not easily come to the No. 1 branch again.
"When does Engineer Liu plan to go back?" Factory Director Qi looked at Liu Gen and asked.
Factory Director Qi knew that Liu Gen would definitely return to the division headquarters. After Liu Gen solved all the problems in the first branch factory, he felt that Liu Gen was going to leave, but he didn't expect that Liu Gen would stay until now. Factory Director Qi had
The idea of leaving Liu Gen in the No. 1 Branch Factory, but he also knew that this idea was very unrealistic. Even if Liu Gen chose to stay, the division commanders and bosses would not be willing to let Liu Gen stay.
In this regard, Factory Director Qi can only hope that Liu Gen can return to a branch factory more in the future, so that a branch factory can solve many problems. With the artillery department here, Liu Gen will come back more often.
"The day after tomorrow? What's going on with Director Qi?" Liu Gen asked with some confusion, not understanding what Director Qi wanted to do.
Noticing the confusion in Liu Gen's eyes, Factory Manager Qi quickly explained: "That's it, when you go back, Engineer Liu, I hope you can bring some local specialties from our No. 1 branch to the bosses. These are fellow villagers."
We want to give it to the bosses."
"I have never gone to the headquarters. Now that you are here, I will go back soon. I hope you can take it back."
Liu Gen was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect this to be the reason. He hesitated, "Director Qi, you also know the style of our army. You can't take advantage of the common people. It's better to send these things back to the hands of the fellow villagers.
.”
Suddenly, Factory Director Qi smiled bitterly, "Mr. Liu, it's not like I've never done this before, but those fellow villagers are determined to keep you alive. I have no other choice, so I want you to take it back to the bosses."
