Time flies quickly, more than a week has passed, and soon it will be New Year's Day.

Li Hong's efforts were not in vain, and Chen Shujun said that his father was moved.

A few days ago, the soldiers of the Security Corps transported the useless aircraft parts of the Ordnance Service to the base of the Flying Squadron of the Security Corps.

The parts of these aircraft are not free from the Ordnance Industry Administration.

Li Hong used 5 Italian guns, 1 anti-aircraft gun, 5 Maxim heavy machine guns, and 200 M40 submachine guns.

In fact, this bit of weaponry is nothing to him at all.

As long as the weapons and equipment experiments developed by the security regiment arsenal are successful, it will not be long before the security regiment will have better and more weapons to be born.

Since the parts were shipped back, Li Hong took the soldiers of the ground maintenance squad around the aircraft design drawings, and hurried day and night to carry out the splicing and improvement work of the aircraft.

At present, there are five light bombers in the maintenance depot of the flight squadron, but only three of these planes can take off and sail, and whether they can carry out combat missions will have to be tested in flight.

Because some of the main parts of the plane, such as the engine, were so expensive, Li Hong could only exchange them for three flight engines from World War II garbage in the system warehouse for assembly.

The flight ground crew pushed the three planes out of the warehouse, and they quickly checked the planes and refueled them.

The shells of these aircraft are sprayed with army green paint, and the fuselage and structure are very similar to the Type 93 light bomber of the devil, so to speak, it can be said that it is a copycat version.

The Japanese Type 93 light bomber was notoriously faulty, and Li Hong made a series of improvements based on the shortcomings of the Type 93 light bomber.

Li Hong named these new light bombers with the code name: "Bomber".

"Buzz—"

There was a sound of engines starting from the airfield of the flying squadron.

Three bomber planes, one after the other, left the runway, and the bombers buffered for some distance, and with a "whoosh" from the end of the runway, they took off and flew into the air.

Li Hong held a telescope in his hand and stared at the bombers circling in the air.

The three bombers flew smoothly, made a dive bombing maneuver and were able to quickly pull up, and no problems were found in the flight performance for the time being.

At present, bombers are not yet able to perform combat missions, and they must be tested for a period of time.

Two hours later, Li Hong rode to the arsenal to see how well the experimental samples of the weapons he had developed were.

A major officer saw Li Hong coming and limped up to salute.

"Tuanza, you're here!"

This major's name is Wu Yuesong, he is less than 30 years old, and he is now the chief engineer designer of the ordnance factory of the security regiment.

Before the fall of Northeast China, he specialized in researching and inspecting Lao Maozi and the arsenals of the Japanese army, and he also studied the foreign arsenal bases.

After the fall of the Northeast, Wu Yuesong entered the pass with the troops, and was disabled by a bullet in the leg in a battle.

After being introduced by a military commander of the security regiment, Li Hong met this Wu Yuesong.

Li Hongcai doesn't care whether the other party is disabled or not, and he doesn't suspect his subordinates, as long as you have the ability, he dares to reuse.

If things are done well, he will be rewarded, and if things are not done well, he will be scolded first, and then he will be rewarded, and his subordinates will have no merit and hard work.

"Report to the group, a batch of samples of weapons and equipment have been made." Wu Yuesong reported to Li Hong.

"Oh, really?"

Li Hong smiled, rewarded the other party with a cigarette, and said, "Let's go, take it to the test site." ”

Coming out of the cave of the arsenal, Wu Yuesong took Li Hong to the test site in the back mountain.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

"Da, da, da!"

"Suddenly, suddenly, suddenly!"

The sound of rifles and light and heavy machine guns was intertwined, and the sound of gunfire was intermittent.

The soldiers and military designers at the test site were repeatedly testing the performance of firearms, and they saluted when they saw Li Hong coming.

"The group seat is good, Chief Engineer Wu is good!"

Li Hong raised his hand and returned the salute, glancing at the new weapons and equipment held by the soldiers.

Instead, he picked up a new submachine gun replicating the MP40 and loaded it with a magazine that was crushed with bullets.

"Da Da Da!"

Li Hong held the submachine gun and fired a few shots at the wooden target 50 meters in front of him.

The impact points of the bullets were concentrated, and all of them hit the wooden target, and the shooting accuracy was higher than that of the genuine MP40 submachine gun.

Just now it was just a shooting accuracy test, and then we had to test the adaptation of the firearm.

There are any harsh environments on the battlefield, such as rainy days, cold weather, mud pools, mountains, and sand dunes, and many weapons will cause firearms to malfunction when encountering these environments.

Weapons are a soldier's second life and a soldier's most trusted brother on the battlefield.

Li Hong climbed up from the bottom of the army, and he had seen many soldiers on the battlefield lose their lives because of firearm failures.

As a regimental commander, he knew that a soldier needed a reliable weapon, so he didn't dare to be sloppy in the firearm test, and he did it himself.

He threw several types of newly developed weapons into the sand and water, and tested the shooting again, and the guns were able to fire normally, but the ammunition supply was not very smooth.

Of course, it is very rare for firearms in this era to achieve such a level of reliability.

"Tuanza, look at this new replica Mauser 98K rifle."

Li Hong took a 98K rifle handed by Wu Yuesong and put it in his hand to observe.

"Tuanzao, we still use 7.92×57mm rifle cartridges for this rifle, the barrel has increased a little on the basis of the original firearm, and it is very advantageous to use a bayonet in close combat, and the butt handguard has been modified a little, and the grip comfort is more suitable for our officers and soldiers......" Wu Yuesong introduced the new firearm held by Li Hong.

"How many meters is the accurate range, and how many meters can the effective range reach?"

Wu Yuesong reported: "After so many days of testing and improvement, the accurate range of the first bullet can reach about 380-450 meters, and the effective range of more than 700 meters is still lethal. ”

"Good, good." Li Hong nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "Our arsenal can produce bullets by ourselves, and in the future, the weapons and equipment of our whole regiment will develop towards German and American weapons." ”

Subsequently, Li Hong went to test the steel helmet and other ordnance equipment, and the results made him quite satisfied.

"These new weapons and equipment samples in the arsenal are good, but there are some small flaws that you still have to continue to improve." Li Hong gave some advice to the arsenal technicians.

"Understood, Tuanza!"

After a while, Wu Yuesong asked Li Hong: "Tuanzao, can our arsenal start mass production of weapons and equipment now?" ”

Li Hong thought for a while and said: "These sample weapons and equipment basically meet the needs of the battlefield and can be produced. ”

After inspecting the arsenal, Li Hong returned to the security regiment......
