Another month passed, and the first rifle of the Qinggang Arsenal was successfully produced! On this day, Ren Laifeng led all the middle and senior officers of the former Flying Tiger Battalion and the current Northeast Guerrilla Force to gather at the Qinggang Arsenal to inspect the first rifle produced by the Arsenal.

This time it was not Ren Laifeng who tried the gun, and Fu Erchong, the leader of the second detachment, snatched this task. No one has an opinion on this, he is the sharpshooter with the best marksmanship in several detachments. Fu Erchong wanted to say yes, but no one dared to say no.

Lifting the red silk covering the gun, Fu Erchong grabbed the rifle and examined it from beginning to end. The butt of red pine wood and the strong body of black iron do not seem to be as delicate as the form, but they give people a heavy feeling when held in the hand. In terms of weight, it is not so much heavier than the formal one.

He took the bullet from the soldier's hand, clicked and clicked, and pushed all five rounds in a row into the magazine. This rifle is a completely imitation of the Chinese formal, how many years has Fu Erchong used the Chinese official, it can be said that he can complete the disassembly and assembly of the whole gun with his eyes closed.

Pull the bolt and push the bullet to load, and the target has been set up fifty meters in front.

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! "Pull the trigger, pull the bolt, shoot five bullets in a standing position, and shoot them out in one go. The target reporter ran over with the target to show the crowd, and the center of the circle that represented the ten rings in the target was broken. Five shots, fifty rings!

"Wow! Good marksmanship! Pay the detachment good marksmanship! The soldiers applauded and cheered, and Fu Erchong held his head high and triumphant. This is also a lord who shines when he gives a little sunshine, and he likes to show up in front of people to win honor. When he saw someone cheering, he was proud, and Ren Laifeng was already surprised by this person's conduct.

"Lao Fu, how is this gun?" Fu Erchong put down the gun, and Ren Laifeng hurriedly asked the user how he felt.

"Not bad! It's about the same as that of the big manufacturers, and it's fully qualified in terms of performance! ”

"Good! In the new city, the arsenal will have to produce at least ten of these rifles every month. ”

"Please rest assured that the commander-in-chief will complete the mission!" The arsenal is a vital department, and it is necessary to find someone of considerable rank and complete trust to be the director of the factory. Ren Laifeng has too many things to do with himself, and the position of factory director naturally falls to Lin Xincheng.

"Hey, Commander-in-Chief, give us a name for our new gun. The Japanese use the 38 type, the central military uses the Zhongzheng, and the Russians use the water beads, what is the name of the rifle produced by our Qinggang Arsenal? Fu Erchong is his favorite gun, and he is the one who proposed to name the rifle.

"What's the name? Our gun is based on the official imitation of China, just call Xiao Zhongzheng is over! Ren Laifeng patted the body of the gun and casually made up a name.

"Little Zhongzheng? Good name! Fu Erchong applauded, and from then on, the rifle of the Qinggang Arsenal had an official name, Xiao Zhongzheng.

Next, led by Ren Laifeng, the officers who attended the gun inspection ceremony lined up, each holding Xiao Zhongzheng to test shoot a few shots, and each user was full of praise for the new gun, and the gun inspection ceremony ended in laughter.

There was no secrecy and no martial law in the vicinity, so the news that the Qinggang Arsenal had produced the first Xiaozhongzheng rifle spread quickly. Before Ren Laifeng realized what was the hidden danger, Feng Zicai, the stationmaster of the Fengtian Military Command Station, found the door and came up.

Feng Zicai told Ren Laifeng that his small and medium-sized formal rifle had attracted the attention of the top brass of the Kwantung Army. It is said that the commander of the Kwantung Army, General Umezu Mijiro, was extremely angry about the occupation of Qinggang County by the Northeast anti-Japanese guerrillas and the vigorous development of the military industry, and prepared to mobilize a large army to carry out a sweep of the Qinggang Prefecture area in the near future, and strive to exterminate the guerrillas!

According to reliable information, the total number of Japanese troops mobilized by General Umezu will not be less than one division! Feng Zicai came here to tell Ren Laifeng that the devil is coming, you should run quickly!

Run? Ren Laifeng waved his fingers to calculate the strength under his hands, and it was impossible for all his detachments together to beat a devil division. Running away seems to be the only way out. But what about my machines? The arsenal has only been open for less than a month, so it has to be closed?

"The machine, I'll give it to me, and I'll find a way to help you transport it to the gate!" Stationmaster Feng patted his chest very boldly, planning to help Ren Laifeng with this favor.

"Shipped to Kannai? What are you doing when you transport it to Kannai? I don't enter the customs, where do you transport the machine to the customs and put it? ”

"Leave it to the First War Zone. You're about to go to war here, and you can't keep these bulky things like machines, so what's wrong with me helping you transport them into the customs and hand them over to the nearest war zone? ”

"Wrong? Hehe, it's inappropriate. I don't have a relationship with the First War Zone, so why should I hand over my machine to them? If you want me to say, it's better to ask which mountain you want, and I can sell it to them at a high price and still make a penny. ”

"Commander-in-chief! The property of the army is the property of the state, not your personal property! Think big! Feng Zicai was a little anxious. But he can just be reasonable, and he really doesn't dare to do it. "Could it be that if you don't want it from all the mountains, can you sell it to the devil again?"

"What's wrong with that? As long as the devil gives me money, I'll sell it! It's a big deal, I'll give them a black and black when trading! ”

"You, well, since the commander-in-chief thinks so, then it is useless for me to say more. I would like to advise the commander-in-chief, don't let this incident ruin the prestige you established in the past! Feng Zicai was indignant and walked away!

As soon as Feng Zicai left, Ren Laifeng immediately summoned his main officers to hold an emergency military meeting! At the meeting, Ren Laifeng informed the big guy of the important information brought by Feng Zicai, the head of the military command, that the devil was finally coming!

The soldiers will block the water and come to the earthen tun. The devil is coming, and of course Ren Laifeng will not run away without firing a shot. Moreover, Qinggang County has become his base camp and base area, and Ren Laifeng is reluctant to give up the base area he has built with great difficulty. Then, in order to defend the base area, it is necessary to fight this battle with the devils.

After determining the battle to be fought, the next step is naturally to discuss how to fight a battle, how to mobilize all forces, and strive for victory as much as possible.

"Bayan, you take a squad, each with two horses to ride in turn, and rush back to the grassland to find the old patriarch of Siqin Bari to move troops! Let's just say that Lakshin wants to fight to the death with the devil and needs a large number of reinforcements, so let him gather 20,000 cavalry for me and hurry up to Qinggang! One step earlier, we will win a big victory, one step later, he will not want to see Lakshin again! ”
