Chapter 298 The Mortar Is Made (Revised)

"It's a little itchy~" Zhu Chuanwen felt his face being pulled continuously in his sleep.

Slowly opened his eyes, his small white and tender palms were waving in front of his eyes, a pair of eyes full of curiosity about the world were flicking around, and his head was turning left and right.

It turned out that it was you, a little thing, who was disturbing your father's sleep, and Zhu Chuanwen's heart was instantly filled with a sense of satisfaction.

Immediately, a gentle female voice sounded, "Xiao Man, look, your father finally woke up, and he didn't know where he went in the middle of the night."

This is naturally the voice of his wife Xian'er. Zhu Chuanwen squirmed like a long worm wrapped in a quilt, constantly approaching the baby who was close at hand. Sudden interception, like a shield, lies between the kissing attack and the target.

"Brush your teeth!"

Is this because I think I have bad breath in the morning?You all don't know what a big thing I did yesterday.Although Zhu Chuanwen thought so in his heart, he got up obediently, stopped and continued to launch attacks, the wife at home is the biggest, bear it!

It is painful to be woken up by others in the middle of the night. In order to supplement sleep, I slept until the sun was rising, and my whole body was still aching.

Feeling my body secretly, it seems that this physical exercise has been strengthened. How can I say that I have to arrange the morning run, and I have been a little indulgent in the past two years. This is not a good phenomenon. In addition to the morning run, I have to Pick up the kung fu of playing small belts.While brushing his teeth, Zhu Chuanwen was thinking about his own exercise in the future. Han Yao is making progress, and his body must also improve.

After washing up, Zhu Chuanwen got his wish and made out with his son for a while.

"Xian'er, I'm going out. I'll eat at the insurance team in the evening. Don't worry about me and dad." After explaining, two carriages drove out from the back door of the porcelain house and went straight to the outside of Binjiang City.

There is a barren hill 20 miles south of Binjiang City, which has been assigned to the Zhu Family Insurance Team. There are running cavalry along the way to keep watch.

Binjiang, and even the entire Heilongjiang Province, now acquiesce in the random enclosure of land by the insurance team. How can I say that people have guns and food in their hands, and they don't rely on the taxes of various prefectures, and they often suppress bandits to protect the peace of the area. There is no such team. People will not like it, and besides, it is a place without an owner, so let’s circle it.And now, the colleagues in these places can't be offended, the Zhu family is backed by Xu Shichang, even if he is in charge of the post office now, he is still a first-rank official.

Now Zhu Kaishan has been considered by the officials of the Qing court to be a pawn arranged by Xu Shichang in the Black Province. In the past two years, he has helped train generals, and he has given people and machines. He is not treating him as his own. so cultivated.

As soon as he entered the boundary at the foot of the barren mountain, Zhu Chuanwen could hear the sound of "booming" from the whole mountain in the carriage.

This is a weapons experiment base belonging to the gun factory. The security team stationed in Binjiang maintains the outer security. There are three checkpoints to enter, but Zhu Chuanwen is naturally allowed.

In the simple fortifications built in the test field, there are already many people gathered at this time. Zhu Kaishan, He Laosi, Zhu Shaofang, Lin Laoba and others are watching the experiment in the field through the observation hole, while Nie Shi seems to be doing something for the experiment. Everyone explained.

In December, Zhu’s insurance team had already changed into winter clothes. Everyone was wearing long leather military uniforms, and a military cap that looked like a shit hat. Steel helmets, and summer naturally has light steel helmets.

There is no way, who let it be in the boundary of Ice City, in this place where the winter is extremely cold, the daily military uniforms of the insurance team are also a lot of consumption, but fortunately the Zhu family is strong, and they have not treated their armed forces badly at all.

"Boss, you're here." Nie Shi saw his boss coming, and hurried forward.

"I still know, if I knew this, I would go home last night and pick you up." Zhu Kaishan was not polite, and he was directly angry at his son.

It's not ashamed to vent your anger on your own son.

There is no shame in being angry with a son.

Everyone pretended they didn't hear them, and they just said "Teacher!" and gave a military salute. No matter what, Zhu Chuanwen's weight is the most important in the current Zhu Family Insurance Team, except for Zhu Kaishan who speaks a lot. He is ranked second. During the period when he and others went to Fengtian Lecture Hall to study, this can be regarded as a successful establishment of the position in Zhu's insurance team.

Zhu Chuanwen greeted them one by one, except for Zhu Shaofang, they were all uncles.

His father is a good ass, after coaxing a few words, Zhu Kaishan's face changed as before, the surprise given to him by the gun factory this time was a bit big, although he felt that his son didn't pay much attention to this experiment, but since he came Now, Lao Zhu feels at ease.

"Old Nie, how far have you tested weapons?" Zhu Chuanwen asked Nie Shize.

This test, in fact, should be said to be an exhibition of some imitation weapons and research and development weapons by the gun factory.

"Boss, the light machine gun, heavy machine gun, and Krupp cannon have been demonstrated, and we are about to enter the demonstration stage of self-made weapons."

"Father, shall we start then?" Zhu Chuanwen asked his father for instructions.

"start!"

Zhu Kaishan was also very curious about what kind of weapons this gun factory had been hiding all along.

Following Nie Shize's orders, a weapon that had never been seen before came into everyone's eyes.

This weapon is very strange, with one barrel and two brackets.

After the gun factory personnel took out the mortar shells, put them in, squatted down, and the movements were smooth and smooth.

And not far away, the target located in the trench turned into pieces with a "boom".

This thing...Zhu Shaofang's eyes widened. Isn't this a weapon against trench tactics?With this thing, it seems that the way of digging the trench has to be changed. Zhu Shaofang pondered this kind of problem in his mind for a moment.

Zhu Kaishan was also taken aback by this effect, "Chuanwen, is this the latest cannon developed by the gun factory?"

"Yes, father, this thing is called a mortar. It was born out of the Russo-Japanese War, but Lao Nie has made improvements on the original basis. Lao Nie, introduce the parameters of our weapon."

"Captains, the Hanyao Type 50 mortar has a caliber of 50mm and a maximum range of 800 meters. The advantage of this weapon is that it shoots in a curved line, with a fixed firing angle of 45 degrees or 75 degrees, and a shell weight of 0.85 kilograms. Of course, a larger caliber , a model with a longer range and greater power is still being developed, and now there are two types of mortar shells: conventional mortar shells and high-explosive mortar shells."

"Try high-explosive bombs." Zhu Shaofang couldn't bear to read on.

After seeing Zhu Chuanwen nodding, Nie Shi said to the people beside him, "Change to picric acid high-explosive bombs."

The high-explosive picric acid bomb, after finding the three tons of picric acid in the hunter department, has been continuously transported to Ice City. With the raw material, Mao Guangting began to play by himself, and the high-explosive bomb combined with Hexogen and picric acid It is made by operation.

If the ammunition is changed, the target will naturally also be replaced, along with an iron target.

"Boom! Boom!"

Twice, after the yellow smoke cleared, Nie Shize invited everyone to come forward to visit the injury.

"Hiss~" All of them were sucking in cold air, the iron targets were blown to pieces, and holes were burnt out of them, the damage of this thing is really terrible.

"That burst of yellow smoke should also have an effect?" He Laosi asked Nie Shize.

"Deputy Commander He, this high-explosive bomb is configured with a combination of two new explosives, RDX and picric acid. In addition to the power of the explosion, as everyone has seen, the yellow smoke produced in a short period of time is also harmful. This kind of smoke can make people's mouth and nose hurt immediately, and they will lose their fighting power." Although Nie Shize's explanation once again satisfied the doubts of several people, he also felt cold in his heart. Sure enough, he also said that the president The teacher was quiet for a while, so what did he do? It turned out that he was researching weapons. With the supplementary artillery fire of mortars, under the disadvantage of the inflexibility of Krupp guns, the insurance team was armed to the teeth in the future.

"Can this kind of shells be equipped in large quantities?" Zhu Kaishan was elated when he saw the light and heavy machine guns imitated just now. He wanted to, or the high-explosive bombs fired by this kind of hooligan hit his heart.

"Father, the cost of this thing is 4 times that of ordinary shells, so it is only 5 base for every 1 base mortar shells, which only accounts for 2%." Zhu Chuanwen explained for Nie Shi. The guns are equipped with 5 base shells in the early stage, and they will be continuously replenished later. This is the standard he has set.

"2%..." Zhu Kaishan thought it was enough to mutter silently, so he didn't say anything.

At this time, Lin Laoba, who had been silent for a long time, pulled Razhu Chuanwen's sleeve and said in a low voice: "Chief teacher, this time there are 36 mortars equipped with Zhu Shaofang's detachment. I think he also It doesn’t take that much, or give my detachment a few points.”

Zhu Chuanwen smiled, looked at Zhu Shaofang who was immersed in joy, and found that Brother Shaofang was like a tough guy.No, it is more appropriate to say that it is a big man who sees a beautiful woman drooling, and said to Old Ba Lin: "Uncle Ba, you don't have any artillery talents under your command. , When this person is trained, the column will still be expanded in the future, and you will also have infantry under your command. By then, won’t Brother Shaofang’s subordinates be your subordinates? How wonderful it is to borrow chickens to lay eggs Son."

Although these words are very tempting, Lin Laoba always feels that something is wrong, but after thinking about it, he also has such a brisk firepower support, and the whole person is also very happy. He is not a fool like Zhu Shaofang. The combat in the army already has its own tactical style, interspersed and cut, and it is very good at using the mobility of cavalry.

In Lin Laoba's view, both heavy machine guns and Krupp guns have a fatal flaw, which is bulkiness.

Unless there is a big battle between two parties in the future, or a siege of the city, such firepower can be swept away. Otherwise, relying on the cavalry, Lin Laoba is sure to use the terrain to catch people by surprise while they are still training Zhuyuan. Pick their ass from behind.

But just now, when everyone went to check the power of the high-explosive bomb, Lin Laoba was surprised by the two gun factory workers, and lifted the gun body, no more than 20 catties!It is really appropriate to equip this kind of thing with cavalry. Lin Laoba has already figured out a tactic in which cavalry and mortars will intersperse in his mind.

Although the temptation Zhu Chuanwen said, Lin Laoba understood that this was a polite refusal. He glanced at Zhu Shaofang, this guy whose mind is full of firepower. When he was raising military expenses, he knew the advantages of cheap tactics, but when he went to Xiaoqingshan, could he exchange the cavalry for some mortar soldiers?Lin Laoba's mind was active.

Zhu Chuanwen looked at Lin Laoba who seemed to be a little distracted. He also thought of the transaction with the North Korean rebels. The 30-year-old rifle is easy to talk about. He directly confiscated the guns of the Xiaoqingshan caravan, and then replaced them with Mo Xingan, who was eliminated by the insurance team. Na, and then said: "Uncle Eight, although this mortar can't be equipped with you for the time being, do you want a new type of rifle?"

"Dragoon rifles?" Hearing this, Mr. Lin regained his spirits. At the beginning, 600 Mosin Nagants were trial-produced in the gun factory, but they were tested in his team. Among them, there were 300 cavalry rifles. A slightly shorter rifle equipped with a folding three-edged bayonet was named the dragoon rifle.In his opinion, this kind of gun is really practical.

"Yes, that's it, this time it can be changed for all the staff."

"That's a good relationship." Lin Laoba wished he could hug Zhu Chuanwen and kiss them, and stood behind the head teacher happily.

Since the successful trial production of the gun factory, it has been producing rifles at full capacity. The first production is the dragoon rifle. In addition to 300 experimental products, there are now 3100 rifles in the warehouse. This change is just in time for winter training. , took the lead in updating the equipment of Lin Laoba Detachment and Shan Shuxin Detachment.

And the rifles that have been eliminated, no, they have already found buyers.

Zhu Chuanwen has experience in buying guns, from 400 guns at the beginning to 4500 guns later, and the North Koreans obviously need guns more than the Zhu family at the time. The country hates the family, so there is nothing to say, just do it.This first tranche is 2500 pieces, after that...

But I'm afraid, it's really hard to say whether this group of people have eggs or not.

"What are you two chattering about?" Zhu Kaishan asked Zhu Chuanwen and Lin Laoba.

"I'm talking about the costume change between the eighth uncle detachment and the Shuxin uncle detachment."

Lao Zhu didn't disagree, his elder brother said about it, and he also supported it, and now he has changed his mind, why not use something good?He longed for more good equipment.Then he asked Zhu Chuanwen, "Chuanwen, what is the output of mortars, heavy machine guns, and field artillery? When will Zhu Shaofang's team be assembled?"

"Father, Brother Shaofang's team now has 6 guns. My opinion is to expand to 48. For heavy machine guns, each team is equipped with 1 heavy machine gun squad, 2 reinforced squads, and 4 light machine guns in the reinforced squad. Yes, 4 mortars. For the time being, that’s 36 heavy machine guns, time, old Nie.”

"Captain, the owner, it is expected to complete production by the end of March. Our gun factory will continue to produce various types of weapons in the future, and strive to complete the supplement of follow-up equipment eight months after the expansion of the insurance team is completed." Nie Shi turned to the two of them. Hit the guarantee.

Now Hanyao's gun production line is fully on track. After merging the Fengtian Manufacturing Bureau, it can be regarded as the second step ahead of schedule. Heavy weapons have also started mass production beyond the previous plan, so Nie Shize's Guarantees are already a fact.
