The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 651 The King of Slaughter

Just when the high-profile propagandists of the Japanese army and the Jinsui army helped the victims in order to strive for a glorious image they thought.

Shanxi Northwest Anti-Japanese Independent First Detachment.

According to the three-step plan proposed by Kong Jie at the military conference held, the first detachment is currently focusing on the three aspects of hoarding food, food defense warfare, and defense and combat in the base area.

In Niukou Village.

Since the chief of staff Xu Guoan, plus the newly formed staff department, plus political commissar Li Wenjie.

It can be said that Kong Jie has both his right and left arm, and he has more and more leisure time.

Anyway, no battle broke out, and Xu Guoan and Li Wenjie could just leave all the big and small matters in the regiment to worry about.

It is also good to have an independent regiment with only three battalions under its jurisdiction.

The size of the entire base area is already a mess, no matter the first team.

Captain Kong is still leisurely.

According to Kong Jie's principle, the leader who can make the cadres busy, but he is too leisurely to panic, is a good leader!

In the detachment headquarters.

Chief of Staff Xu Guoan and Political Commissar Li Wenjie became a pair of brothers and sisters who were busy dealing with the affairs of the regiment, grinning wryly.

Now Xu Guoan finally understood why the first time he met political commissar Li Wenjie, political commissar Li was so busy that he was sweating profusely, and he couldn't even get his butt onto the stool.

Our Captain Kong is really very good at calling people...

Of course, tired and happy.

After getting busy, Xu Guoan gradually felt that he could play a silent role in the first team, and became more comfortable in his heart, and became more integrated into the first team.

After the establishment of the first detachment, Dong San, the director of the logistics department, was busy in the repair shop that had been expanded again.

In the entire first team, the most idle one is probably Captain Kong.

Kong Jie told the sentinel not to report.

I entered the workshop silently, watching the operation in the workshop, and the employees were busy back and forth.

After a while, Dong San suddenly noticed Kong Jie's arrival.

"Captain, why are you here?"

For Kong Jie, Dong San had long admired him.

The repair shop has grown to its current scale.

Dong San Zengcheng said to all the staff of the repair shop:
If we divide the credit for the development of our repair shop into ten parts, I will get one part, and all our employees, technicians, and soldiers will get six points.

The other three copies are exclusive to our team leader!

Nothing else, Kong Jie can always repair and collaborate from time to time, and provide some very delicate and important production drawings.

Plus a word or two of enlightenment from time to time.

For technicians such as Dong San of the Repair Institute, it is really a bit like "listening to what you say is better than reading ten years of books."

On weekdays, Dong San often went directly to the headquarters to seek advice from Kong Jie when he had any problems with military production and technology.

At this time, Captain Kong will basically not let him down.

Dong San was even thinking that if the head of the regiment didn't lead troops to fight, he would stay in the workshop.

What Xiuxie feared was that he would have nothing to do with himself.

Even the arsenal at the headquarters may have to invite the head of the regiment to serve as a technical consultant.

I really don't know how the head of the regiment is full of knowledge and wonderful ideas, as well as his superb vision in military industry.

Back in front of him, Kong Jie didn't have time to take care of Dong San's little thoughts, so he asked directly:
"Last time, I told you about the experimental product you produced in the machine repair shop. It is a curved thin steel plate with explosives attached to the back. Has it been produced?"

"Don't worry, leader, how can you not complete the work you gave me? It's just the leader, I'm a little curious, what is this thing for?"

Dong San replied.

"What do you guess?" Kong Jie asked with a smile, playing charades.

Dong San smiled wryly: "I can't guess this, but I guess it should be a new type of weapon, used to fight devils, and there is no reason for that."

"Your brain is really good, bring a few experimental products, I will take you to see it, and you will know what it is."

"Eh!"

Dong San responded excitedly, and hurriedly called people to bring two or three curved steel plate test products with explosives tied on the back produced by the repair shop according to Kong Jie's requirements.

Then, Dong San brought a few more technicians, and followed Kong Jie to the hidden valley where the first team usually used to test explosives such as explosives.

After arriving at the place, Kong Jie inspected the bent steel test product.

He was a little helpless, the experimental product was too simple, and it was far from the broadsword landmine he planned to produce with the help of later generations' experience.

By the way, what is a broadsword mine?
In other words, it is called an anti-personnel directional fragmentation mine.

Once this new type of weapon that kills landmines appeared and was used in warfare, it was quickly highly praised by troops from various countries.

It directly subverted the military's perception of the role of landmines on the battlefield.

In the conventional cognition of the troops of various countries, although the weapon of landmine is insidious and difficult to defend against, it is fortunate that it has no directional aggressiveness and cannot move.

According to the tactical principles of many troops:
The job of the mines is simply to create a no-go zone and drive the enemy into crossfire.

In other words, landmines cannot serve as an effective killing tool.

In this regard, even the Eighth Route Army troops who have played mine warfare to a full extent are no exception.

Once the presence of landmines is discovered, the Japanese army tends to become extremely cautious, and the engineers will clear the mines as soon as possible.

The conventional role of landmines is only to delay the pace of the Japanese army's advance, but landmines alone cannot cause heavy blows to the Japanese army.

Later, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army used their wisdom to invent all kinds of combat landmines. In villages and houses, they used all kinds of exquisite mine warfare methods to deal with little devils.

The principle of these mine warfare tactics is to use landmines, a passive defensive killing tool, for active offense.

But the effect is actually not so ideal.

Although these specially made landmines can cause certain damage to the Japanese and puppet troops entering the village.

It is almost impossible to destroy the Japanese and puppet troops who entered the village with the help of landmines.

Until the appearance of the Broadsword Landmine directly overturned the above common sense.

In the open field, the lethality of each broadsword landmine is even equivalent to that of a large-caliber artillery shell.

In addition, it can shoot out the fragments produced by the explosion in a directional manner with extremely strong destructive power and terrifying speed, and it can also artificially control the explosion.

Greatly improved the fatal flaw that mines cannot take the initiative to attack.

In fact, the function is a bit similar to the remote detonation explosive package produced by the independent group repair equipment.

It's just that the killing effect of this broadsword mine is even more terrifying.

"Try the effect after the explosion!"

Kong Jie opened his mouth and took a test product in person.

Since this is the original model of the broadsword landmine, the production is still very crude. The entire external structure is composed of steel plates, which is very heavy after being used.

The weight of the entire steel plate, plus the weight of the explosives fixed behind the steel plate, weighed more than ten kilograms in total.

These places still need to be improved. You must know that the external structure of the broadsword landmine that has been perfected by later generations can even be replaced by plastic.

It's just that the repair shop doesn't have such technology yet.

Dong San behind him was a little worried: "Leader, this is dangerous, let me do it!"

Kong Jie said, "It's okay, I'll give you a demonstration in person."

As he spoke, Kong Jie inserted the tripod welded under the first experimental product into the soil, then turned his head and ordered, "Everyone hide behind the turn of the ditch."

Then, after Kong Jie placed the protruding back of the curved steel experiment facing no man's land, he tore off the lead wire of the explosive tied behind the steel plate, and quickly retreated to the area where Dong Shan and others were hiding.

boom -

After a violent explosion, Kong Jie took Dong San and others back to the explosion area to investigate the situation.

There was still some smoke from the explosion over the area, but it was quickly blown away by the wind.

After the explosion, the original thin steel plate had already been torn apart. Kong Jie asked about the situation after the explosion: "How is it? What did you see?"

Dong San knew that this was the team leader's test of himself.

He carefully walked up and down the area after the explosion.

Suddenly, he noticed that after the originally curved steel plate was blown apart by the explosives, there were a large number of steel plate fragments in the forward direction, flying and scattered in the area within 20 meters, but there were only a few fragments on the back.

"After the explosion, the main scattered area of ​​fragments seems to be in the direction that the protruding surface of the steel plate faced!"

Sensing the question, Dao San summed it up and answered.

Kong Jie smiled and nodded: "That's right.

Each military weapon has its own theoretical support.

The current trial is no exception.

The explosives are detonated behind a curved steel plate. When the explosives detonate, most of the impact force will act on the steel plate. The brittle steel plate will be torn into countless high-speed flying fragments. The destructive power is amazing. The range is also large.

This is a special effect principle, if it is named after the inventor, ahem...you can call it the old hole explosion effect. "

Dong San, who is extremely talented in military production, immediately realized the key point after listening to it, and replied with a bit of shock on his face:

"Captain, I was just thinking about what would happen if a dozen or even twenty devils surged up one after another in the fan-shaped strike surface in front of him after this kind of steel plate exploded?"

Kong Jie immediately patted Dong San on the shoulder amidst loud laughter and said:

"Your kid's brain circuit is really not blown."

As soon as the subject changed, Kong Jie's words carried a chill that made Dong San and the others feel chills:
"Yes, the new weapon we are trying to develop this time can be called an anti-infantry directional fragmentation mine to be more precise. It is an application of a new type of landmine."

"What needs to be subverted is the inherent perception that landmines cannot take the initiative to attack."

"What I want is to be able to kill a whole area of ​​devils at once."

"If it can be successfully developed and mass-produced, and used in the offensive and defensive of the troops, if the Japanese army invades the country and sweeps away our roots, then it will be clear what role these weapons will play."

Dong San shuddered, "I'm afraid there are not enough little devils to kill!"

Kong Jie said: "It's still too early to say these things, and the production of this new type of landmine is still far behind!"

"As for the production drawings of this new type of directional fragmentation mine, I have drawn some sketches, and you can go to the command post to find me later."

"You decide on the specific details yourself. The fragments of the steel plate alone are far from achieving the maximum lethal effect. At that time, some steel balls, iron nails and the like can be added inside."

"It's like an enhanced version of a shotgun fixed on the ground. The steel balls, fragments, and iron nails contained in it fly out like splashed ink in the explosion, but none of the little devils who are facing the front can be spared. .”

"Yes!"

Dong San replied, swallowing his saliva, already impressed by this new type of weapon that has not yet taken shape, but has exploded with amazing potential in the embryonic stage.

He has even thought about it. After successfully producing this form of directional mine, he must give this mine a domineering name.

Just call it—King of Slaughter!
