After listening to Yu Feipeng's briefing, Song Jiyao was completely speechless. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Just as the adjutant brought Zhou Junruo and Yang Jicheng in, Song Jiyao hurriedly ordered the two to sit down and asked why they were shocked during the dinner?
Yang Jicheng hurriedly reported to his immediate boss what he had discussed with Zheng Yi, and finally complained with great inferiority: "People's arsenal has less than 600 people from senior managers to ordinary workers, but it has the ability to produce 5,000 submachine guns and 5,000 pistols per month, and also has a workshop with a monthly output of 2,000 steel helmets, a Tal electric furnace casting workshop and an advanced ferroalloy workshop. ”
"In two months, this arsenal will increase the production of two thousand mortars and twenty thousand mortar shells per month!"
"In contrast, the number of people in our Jinling Arsenal is as high as more than 3,000, the monthly output of rifles is less than 1,000, the imitation of Browning's 1920 pistol has an ugly appearance and frequent failures, the imitation of the water-cooled heavy machine gun lasted half a year, and it cost nearly 50,000 research funds and still has no results, only the imitation of the French Bayi mortar can still be used, but the monthly output is less than 150 guns, and the quality of the shells is not guaranteed, I don't know what to say."
Song Jiyao wanted to scold Yang Jicheng for two sentences, but he didn't know how to say it, and when he saw Yu Feipeng's solemn face, he had to let out a long sigh.
After being silent for a long time, Yu Feipeng suddenly asked, "In addition to the new light machine gun and automatic rifle, what other new products did Zheng Yi introduce to you?" ”
Yang Jicheng, whose head was swollen, shook his head.
Zhou Junruo thought for a while: "All the situation has been reported by Brother Jicheng, and the rest is the bullet production line that Xiao Yi said, he said that automatic rifle bullets are relatively special, and no country has made them in large quantities." ”
"Xiao Yi's intermediate bullets designed for the two automatic rifles are currently only being tested by a few factories in Germany and the United Kingdom, so I want to order two automatic rifle bullet production lines from Germany, but I am afraid that this matter will not be carried out until half a year later, he did not elaborate, and I did not inquire carefully."
Yu Feipeng thought for a moment, then turned his head sideways and asked, "Do you believe that Zheng Yi's arsenal can make five thousand rifles per month?" ”
Yang Jicheng didn't know the bottom in his heart, thinking that he would go to the field tomorrow to see it?
Zhou Junruo was honest, and after a little hesitation, he still chose to believe Zheng Yi's words: "I understand Xiao Yi's character, he can't say what he can't do, since he said that he can do it, there should be no problem." “”
"Although I don't know about weapon design and military production, I believe that Xiao Yi knows better than anyone else, and many things that are difficult to do in my opinion will not be a problem at all with Xiao Yi, otherwise he would not have achieved what he has today, let alone repeatedly obtained patent certificates issued by the British government."
Yu Feipeng and Song Jiyao glanced at each other, and then waved to Zhou Junruo and Yang Jicheng: "Go back and have a good rest, the visit and inspection from tomorrow morning is very important, it is estimated that it will last for a week, you all have to cheer up!" ”
Zhou Junruo and Yang Jicheng respectfully said goodbye and left.
Yu Feipeng and Song Jiyao did not feel sleepy, they had a heavy burden, in addition to bringing back the relevant information of the M1929 submachine gun and Mauser 1924 rifle given by the Zheng family, they also had to evaluate in detail the current situation and development potential of the Zheng family's arsenal, and then write a report and submit it to President Jiang for decision.
Therefore, their inspection not only affected the Nanjing government's military industrial development plan, but also involved various interests, including their own interests.
……
……
Zheng Yi's words at the banquet were all reflected in the next day's visit.
The more than 50 members of the Nanjing Government's military and technical inspection delegation were extremely moved in the face of the spacious workshop, advanced machinery, and orderly arms production, and the exclamations and praises permeated the entire visit, so much so that they were still hotly discussed when they ate in the spacious and bright workers' canteen.
Song Jiyao, deputy head of the regiment who is proficient in machinery and weapons processing technology, and Yang Jicheng, technical supervisor, and others have gained even more, and they have finally seen what the world's advanced technology and modern processing workshops look like.
In the weapons assembly workshop, the inspection team experienced the assembly line production that has been passed down for a long time but has never been seen, and learned about the precision processing procedures and excellent quality of key components of weapons in the heat treatment workshop.
In addition to the members responsible for the military technical inspection, the other members of the delegation also gained a lot, just the garden-like factory area and clean and tidy workshop, which made everyone sigh with emotion.
A group of security guards in uniform and armed with submachine guns and pistols inside and outside the gate and in the factory area, as well as tall and powerful German police dogs, also impressed everyone.
Although Zheng Yi, who accompanied the inspection, did not introduce it, everyone could see different general safety and security measures.
The lunch in the workers' canteen was very practical, with five kinds of meat dishes, two vegetarian dishes and free bone broth, and the workers could choose according to their preferences, and the same food was served to the window opened for the members of the delegation, and they only had to go to the queue empty-handed to get it.
Yu Feipeng, like Zheng Yi, did not enjoy any preferential treatment, and lined up like the other workers at the window, and when it was his turn, he only had to explain it to the chef inside, or point to the variety he needed, and the cheerful chef would load it for you, and then hand out the tray divided into four compartments full of food.
Zheng Yi, who was receiving the meal, was just about to walk to Zhou Junruo's table when he was stopped by Yu Feipeng.
The morning visit had not yet completed half of the plan, and the three major workshops for manufacturing light machine guns, steel helmets, and mortars had not yet arrived, and Yu Feipeng, who was full of feelings, already had many questions in his heart that Zheng Yi needed to answer for him.
The two came to sit down at the clean big table by the window, Zheng Yi invited Yu Feipeng to eat first, and then went to a few thermos buckets placed in the center to serve Yu Feipeng a bowl of steaming bone broth.
Zheng Yi saw that Song Jiyao and Deputy Manager Chen of the Jinling Arsenal had already sat next to Yu Feipeng, so after putting down the soup bowl, he went to bring two bowls of hot soup to the two.
"The conditions are limited, the greetings are not good, and I ask the commanders to bear with me!" Zheng Yi politely put the hot soup in front of Song Jiyao and Deputy Manager Chen.
Deputy Manager Chen hurriedly got up to thank him, Song Jiyao looked at the fragrant hot soup in front of him for a while, raised his head and asked curiously, "Xiao Zheng, do your workers have such a meal standard every day?" ”
Zheng Yi sat on the other side of Yu Feipeng: "It's all like this, every month to the workers to issue five Hong Kong dollars of meal tickets, the standard of each meal is two meat and one vegetable, free soup is provided, rice can be eaten as you like, the fee is equivalent to ten copper plates, if you want to eat more, you can pay for it, if the meal ticket is not enough, you can go to the general affairs office to spend money to buy, and the family can also enjoy the same treatment." ”
