Chapter 116: The Lonely Sword Forger
Lu Jiadong's "no problem" has been delivered to his mouth, as long as he gently moves his lower lips, he will blurt out, but just when he is about to say it, Lu Jiadong's mind suddenly appeared The wounded soldier who was gradually moving away on the way to the front line, which made the words he was about to blurt out immediately stop to his mouth.
Although the troops have been equipped with Type 78 guns, although the infantry detachment uses grenade launchers to suppress the fire of the Vietnamese army, and although the artillery unit can win the artillery battle after being equipped with 130mm bottom-row grenades, do we really make our shields stronger and the swords in our hands sharper?
"No, we don't!" Lu Jiadong's mind turned and the answer was given in an instant!
It is true that our army defeated Vietnam with the overwhelming force of Mount Tai, but in terms of equipment system alone, we did not occupy much advantage, our infantry still had to rely on iron legs to cross the mountains and jungles, the iron armor of our armored troops was not as indestructible as imagined, our artillery still used the old technology of several decades ago, our communications troops were often interfered with and were easily eavesdropped, and our air force was limited to reconnaissance.
Therefore, Lu Jiadong did not think that the widely praised equipment he developed was so remarkable, but felt that the cause of forging swords for the country was more important and had a long way to go, but this made Lu Jiadong have to face an unavoidable fact, that is, the basis for the renewal and development of the army's weapons and equipment is not in the army itself, but in the huge military industrial system behind it.
Some people may say that after entering the army as a soldier, you can also develop advanced weapons and equipment for the army, Lu Jiadong also thought about it, but such an idea only stayed in his mind for a short moment, and was ruthlessly abandoned by him, the reason is very simple, no matter how advanced weapons and equipment you develop, if there is no strong military industry to support and support, these equipment are still just lines on the drawings, and they cannot become a reality at all.
Because of this, Lu Jiadong swallowed back the words that had come to his lips, and said them in a firmer tone and attitude:
"I think it's better for me to stay in the local military factory!"
After listening to Lu Jiadong's words, the chief only frowned slightly, but soon a faint smile appeared on his face again:
"Oh, isn't the army as good as the local arsenals?"
"No!" As soon as the chief's voice fell, Lu Jiadong quickly shook his head and replied, but then Lu Jiadong replied without hesitation:
"But if you want the sword in the hands of the army to be sharper, then you can't do without the advanced military industry as a foundation!"
When the chief commander heard this, he did not immediately express his position, but motioned to Lu Jiadong to continue, so Lu Jiadong settled down and continued:
"At present, the equipment system of our army is not advanced, the reason is that our country's military industrial system is too backward, and it cannot meet the needs of the army's growing development, and to achieve the goal of national defense modernization, it is inevitable to change the backward status quo of the current military industrial system, although most of the current military factories are located in remote areas, and the conditions are also very difficult, but no matter what, our army always needs sword casters who can withstand loneliness!"
"Endure the loneliness of the swordsmith!" The head of the general finger couldn't help but repeat what Lu Jiadong had just said, and then the pair of sword eyebrows shrank tightly to the center of his eyebrows a few times, and his eyes looking at Lu Jiadong also became sharp, as if he had re-acquainted Lu Jiadong:
"Are you trying to say that you just want to be a swordsmith like that?"
As soon as the chief finger's voice fell, Lu Jiadong nodded without hesitation, and the chief finger's frown immediately loosened when he saw this, and a smile full of satisfaction appeared on his face:
"Okay, very good! Lonely swordsmith, this sentence is very good, if our country can have more people with this quality like you, then why can't our army be strong!"
As he spoke, the smile on the face of the chief gradually disappeared, and he was replaced by a rather serious look: "What you just said is right, our country's military industrial system is indeed relatively backward, just yesterday, I read a report on Vietnam's military factories, saying that the machinery and equipment in it are more advanced than most of our domestic factories!"
As soon as the chief of the general commander finished speaking, Lu Jiadong nodded solemnly: "Indeed, the machinery and equipment in the Vietnamese military factory are much stronger than our domestic machinery of the same type in terms of age and technical status, not to mention anything else, just say that most of the machinery and equipment in our Wanshan factory are old equipment in the fifties, although some of them have been updated, but they are all second-hand equipment that is more than ten years old, and the overall technical state cannot be compared with the military factory of the Vietnamese!"
When Lu Jiadong finished speaking, the head of the general finger couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then asked incredibly: "Your Wanshan factory still uses machinery and equipment from the fifties?"
Listening to the words of the chief commander, Lu Jiadong's heart throbbed slightly, and then he reacted, although Lu Jiadong is not very old, but he can be regarded as a little fox in two lives, such a big chief suddenly cares about the machinery and equipment of the Wanshan factory, which means it
Thinking of this, Lu Jiadong's face couldn't help but squeeze out a rather helpless expression, and even the tone of his speech became a little less imposing:
"The state of the machinery and equipment of the Wanshan factory is really not good, although now it can also rely on maintenance to barely produce, but after all, the technical foundation is limited, many good ideas and new equipment can not be produced at all, and the cadres and workers of our factory are very unwilling!"
Seeing Lu Jiadong like this, the chief commander showed an imperceptible smile on his face, but he disappeared without a trace: "Your Wanshan factory has also made outstanding contributions in this border self-defense counterattack, since there are such difficulties, it is natural to solve them, now there are so many machinery and equipment in the Vietnamese military factory, you go back and tell your factory, count the number of machinery that needs to be replaced, and then prepare a report to the front headquarters, and then hand it over to the headquarters for distribution at the discretion of the front line headquarters!"
Listening to the words of the chief commander, Lu Jiadong was stunned at first, but soon reflected it, although the chief of the general command said vaguely, but he was very clear, what counts the number of replacements, what to submit a report to the front headquarters, to put it bluntly, he always pointed to the chief to take the lead for him Lu Jiadong to ask for this batch of machinery and equipment in the Vietnamese military factory.
As for the quantity, it is all up to Lu Jiadong himself, because of this, Lu Jiadong's face flashed with irrepressible excitement, and when he was thinking about how to express his gratitude to the head of the general commander, a confidential secretary of the chief of the general command hurriedly walked in, and then whispered a few words to the chief of the general commander, and the chief of the general command couldn't help but nod with a serious expression after hearing this:
"Tell them, just do what the headquarters wants!" After speaking, he turned his body in the direction of Lu Jiadong and looked at Lu Jiadong who was sitting opposite:
"Comrade Xiao Lu, since everything is clear, then let's get here today, it's not early, you go back and rest first!"
"Yes!" Listening to the words of the chief commander, Lu Jiadong quickly got up from his seat, stood upright, and then walked out of the conference room with the confidential secretary who had just entered
That night, in the reconnaissance company headquarters of the assault division, Lu Jiadong was thinking about the various types of machinery and equipment in the Wanshan factory while holding a pen, and at the same time looking up the detailed list of machinery and equipment in the Vietnamese military factory that was counted today
At the same time, on the road leading from Liangshan to the front headquarters, a convoy was quickly passing over, and in an army-green jeep in the center of the convoy, a confidential secretary looked at the chief of the general who was sitting beside him in puzzlement:
"This Lu Jiadong is really true, and he refused such a good opportunity to join the army!"
"Isn't this expected!" the chief of the chief leaned on the back of the car, his eyes half-squinted, but in the dim compartment, the faint smile on the face of the chief could still be seen:
"Didn't Li Ming say it before, he once wanted him to join the army, but this kid refused without even thinking about it!"
"The chief is right, otherwise we wouldn't have to prepare two sets of plans!" The confidential secretary's tone was full of admiration for the chief commander, but his tone was a little regretful as he spoke:
"It's a pity that a hero like Lu Jiadong doesn't go to the army!"
"There's nothing to be sorry for!" As he spoke, the chief suddenly opened his eyes and shot out two sharp rays of light: "This kid is right, without them who can endure loneliness, how can we have a powerful army!"
"Then since the chief values Lu Jiadong so much, why do you still let him stay in the small factory in the corner of Wanshan Factory, just transfer him directly to the big factory directly under the headquarters!"
"If you want to adjust it, Tan Bin and they have already adjusted it, so we don't need to worry about it at all!" As he spoke, the head of the headquarters straightened his somewhat stiff waist, and then continued:
"Those big factories are not big dye vats, good seedlings like Lu Jiadong will be dyed black within a few years, it is better to grow slowly in such a small factory, and one day they will become towering trees with their own skills!"
Listening to the words of the chief commander, the confidential secretary couldn't help but nod in agreement, and the words of the chief of the chief did not end, but turned his head to him and asked:
"Is the plan for the deployment of machinery and equipment in the Vietnamese military factory ready?"
"It's ready, but the amount on Lu Jiadong's side hasn't been determined yet, if he wants more than half, I'm afraid"
"Don't worry, that kid is measured, he will need a third at most!" Before the confidential secretary finished speaking, the chief of the chief of the general command interrupted him, but as he spoke, the chief of the general commander's eyes narrowed again, and his body leaned against the back of the car, and the confidential secretary saw this and quickly put a military coat on the body of the chief commander, and it didn't take long for a crisp snoring sound to float out of the car
