A day later, Liu Gen arrived safely in Gou Village, Hebei Province, and came to the first branch factory smoothly.

Ten kilometers away from Gou Village, Hebei, Liu Gen met a soldier who was secretly on guard, but fortunately, Liu Gen reported his identity in time and took out his identity certificate, so that the vigilant soldier had no chance to make a move. Due to the existence of a branch factory in Gou Village, Hebei, in order to ensure the safety of a branch factory as much as possible, this area is very vigilant.

The fighters in charge of the guard have written down almost all the people in the surrounding area, and if an unfamiliar face comes, they will be controlled by the fighters, and they will only be allowed to pass after confirming the relevant identity. It is precisely because of such a strong vigilance that the soldiers have discovered many devils and traitors who want to touch in.

Of course, such a strong vigilance is also a big burden on the soldiers, and the soldiers who are responsible for the vigilance every day are very hard, but even so, the soldiers still managed to persevere, they all know the importance of the arsenal, even if they work hard, they will not relax in the slightest in the vigilance.

Qi Xuanwei, the director in charge of the first branch, was extremely excited after learning that Liu Gen had come to the first branch, he was an old man in the arsenal, so he naturally knew Liu Gen's ability clearly. Director Qi knew that Liu Gen would definitely come to a branch, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly, and he thought it would take a while.

In order to show his importance to Liu Gen, Director Qi chose to come to greet Liu Gen in person, with the existence of the artillery department, he knew that Liu Gen would definitely come to a branch. Seeing Liu Gen again, Director Qi was still a little emotional and excited, he knew that Liu Gen's arrival would definitely be able to solve many problems accumulated in a branch factory.

Due to technical problems, a branch has a lot of problems to solve, originally Qi factory director also wanted to invite some technical experts from the headquarters to come to a branch factory for guidance, now with Liu Gen to come, there is no doubt that there is no need for experts from the headquarters to come. For Liu Gen, Director Qi did not have much contact, but he still had enough confidence in Liu Gen's ability, and he believed that Liu Gen could solve the problems existing in the first branch.

"Engineer Liu, this time, you must stay in our first branch for a while."

"We have too many problems to solve in a branch factory, and we urgently need talents like Engineer Liu to take charge." Director Qi held Liu Gen's hand tightly and said very sincerely.

Since Liu Gen returned to the arsenal, and he was in charge of the artillery department of the arsenal, there was no problem for Director Qi to call Liu Gen Engineer Liu. was called Foreman Liu by the director of the factory, Liu Gen was somewhat emotional in his heart, he thought of his days in the Huangyadong Arsenal, it seemed that this was the first time someone called him the foreman.

Liu Gen felt the strength of Director Qi's handshake with him, he could only smile and nod, he believed that if he expressed the slightest unwillingness, then Director Qi would not let go of his hand easily, these are old routines. In the troops of the Eighth Route Army, it is easy to see this situation, who made the Eighth Route Army really lack talents.

"Director Qi, there are a lot of skilled talents in the artillery department, and with them, the technical problems of a branch should be easily solved, right? In particular, Kong Jue of our artillery department has very good technical ability, and you can let him be responsible for solving the technical problems of a branch. Liu Gen said to the factory director.

After the split of the Huangyadong Arsenal, Liu Gen knew that the production task of the first branch was not heavy, and the special nature of the artillery department meant that the technicians of the artillery department had a certain amount of free time. In such a time, Director Qi can completely ask the technicians of the artillery department to help solve the problem.

Liu Gen believes that as long as Director Qi shows such a willingness, then Kong Jue and others will not have any problems.

"Engineer Liu, Kong Jue and other comrades have helped to solve the problem of the first branch, and it is precisely because of them that our first branch has entered the right track in the shortest possible time. However, there are too few comrades with outstanding skills like Kong Jue, and even if they continue to work hard, they can't solve all the problems. ”

"In particular, some of the problems that still remain until now cannot be solved by Kong Jue and his comrades, and in terms of experience, they are still a little worse." Director Qi said helplessly.

Before taking over the first branch, Director Qi knew that this was a chore, but after he actually took over the first branch, he clearly understood the seriousness of the problem. Director Qi is a little lucky, he is very glad that a branch has an artillery department, it is with the artillery department, there will be a technical talent like Kong Jue, a branch can resume production in the shortest possible time.

It's a pity that Kong Jue's technical ability is good, but it's still a little too young, in the Eighth Route Army, there is only one Liu Gen, Kong Jue's technical ability is not weak, but compared with Liu Gen, it is still a lot worse.

Liu Gen nodded, saying that he understood that Kong Jue's ability was good, but there was still a lot of room for improvement, and he was still a little short of really growing into the backbone of being able to sit in the arsenal. Thinking of Kong Jue, Liu Gen is a little nostalgic, I don't know what Kong Jue's technical ability is now, there should be a lot of progress.

In the Huangyadong Arsenal, Kong Jue is a well-known technical genius, if it weren't for Liu Gen, then in the Huangyadong Arsenal, Kong Jue would definitely be the most dazzling star. It's just that Liu Gen's arrival makes Kong Jue unable to become the brightest star, but it is also because of Liu Gen's presence that Kong Jue's technical ability can be continuously improved.

In order to let Liu Gen clearly understand the specific situation of the first branch, Director Qi deliberately took Liu Gen to wander around in the first branch, compared with the Huangyadong Arsenal, the departments of the first branch factory are a little scattered, this situation is also no way, under the nose of the devil, how can you not be careful?

During this period, Liu Gen was also fully aware of the technical problems existing in the arsenal, and some of the problems seemed to him to be a bit of a headache, not to mention other people in the arsenal. These problems are not small even if they are placed in other arsenals, and after fully understanding the situation of the first branch, Liu Gen realized that it may be difficult for him to leave the first branch factory in a short time.

Before coming to the first branch, Liu Gen was going to do all the work of the division within a week and return to the division headquarters as soon as possible. But now, Liu Gen feels that he can do everything well in half a month, which is already very good, mainly because there are too many problems in a branch, and it takes a lot of time to solve these problems.

After a simple meal, Liu Gen directly devoted himself to solving the problem of the arsenal, the conditions of the arsenal were not too good, and when eating, Liu Gen found something. It's just that Liu Gen didn't say anything, he knew that this situation was very common, especially in the arsenal.

When Liu Gen was solving the technical problems of a branch, the technicians led by Kong Jue followed closely behind him, and each of them carried a small notebook in their hands, which could be used for them to record Liu Gen's solution to the problem and record Liu Gen's teaching to them.

Liu Gen has no opinion on Kong Jue and the others who are following behind him, if this can help them improve, then he is very willing. Liu Gen can be sure that under the leadership of Director Qi, a branch will definitely be able to develop better and better, Kong Jue and others were called by Director Qi to follow Liu Gen, he is a good factory director.

With Kong Jue and others here, Liu Gen's speed of solving problems is much slower, not because these technical problems are too difficult, but because Liu Gen needs to slow down and explain to Kong Jue and others, he hopes that Kong Jue and others can completely understand these things under their detailed answers.

The Eighth Route Army lacked the most talented people in the arsenal, lacked skilled technicians, and was constrained by objective conditions, making it very difficult for the arsenal to get talented people with sufficient technology. Liu Gen didn't think of establishing a corresponding school to train technicians, but he also knew that this was a bit unrealistic, the base area was not completely stable, and the devils swept so frequently, and the establishment of a special technical school was a bit more than worth the loss.

What's more, if you want to really train technicians with strong technical ability, you also need a lot of practical practice, and the current Eighth Route Army does not have such good conditions.

Kong Jue and others followed behind Liu Gen and could clearly see Liu Gen's every move, among which Kong Jue learned more, not because of Liu Gen's eccentricity, but because Kong Jue has a certain cultural foundation and his technical ability is not weak, so he is naturally able to quickly understand what Liu Gen said.

And the more he followed behind Liu Gen, the more Kong Jue felt that Liu Gen was powerful, and any technical problems that plagued a branch factory were so simple in Liu Gen's hands, and there were no accidents when they were solved. Kong Jue didn't understand how Liu Gen's technical level could be so high, they also came out of the Huangyadong Arsenal, Liu Gen's study time in the Huangyadong Arsenal was so much shorter than him, but Liu Gen's technical level was so strong!

Time is constantly passing in Liu Gen's teaching of Kong Jue and others, and ten days after coming to a branch factory, Liu Gen ended his teaching of Kong Jue and others, and he taught Kong Jue and others all the things that should be taught, and then it depends on how much Kong Jue and others have learned.

It took ten days to solve the problem of a branch factory, Liu Gen was very dissatisfied, with his ability, he was able to solve it in a shorter time.

However, when Liu Gen thought of the promotion that Kong Jue and the others could get, he could only sigh, what could he do? Don't you teach Kong Jue them? How is this possible? You can't always have a problem in a branch factory, and Liu Gen has to come to solve it, right? This is a little too unrealistic.

In the past ten days, Liu Gen has not gained nothing, during this time, all the personnel of the first branch factory know his existence, respect him very much, and he has mixed up the entire first branch. It can be said that the first branch will be Liu Gen's home in the future, and he can get the warmest welcome whenever he wants to come back.

After knowing that Liu Gen had solved all the problems of a branch, Director Qi specially expressed his solemn gratitude to Liu Gen, and also brought a message to Liu Gen, that is, the heads of the two devils, Sugimoto Junjiang, the captain of the devil's wing, and Mashiko Shigeo, the captain of the Mashiko Advance Team, were hung by the soldiers on the gate of the county occupied by the devils, which successfully dealt a blow to the arrogant arrogance of the devils.

In particular, some devil strongholds close to the anti-Japanese base areas have not been able to get out of the strongholds in the past few days, and even their daily patrols have been abandoned.

And the soldiers of the various units of the Eighth Route Army, after learning that the captain of the Devil Wing and Mashiko Shigeo were killed, they were extremely excited, and they were even more motivated during training. The shame was washed away, and how could the fighters of the various units not be excited? Even the personnel of the arsenal became more energetic in production after knowing such news.

Hearing the news from Director Qi, Liu Gen was not too excited, he had long known that such a thing would happen. What's more, in Liu Gen's opinion. It's nothing, what is a co-captain of a devil? One day, he will personally kill the devil's lieutenant general, general!

If there is a chance, then Liu Gen doesn't mind killing Okamura Ninji with his own hands and killing the Japanese emperor of Dog Day with his own hands!

Returning to the artillery department of a branch factory, Liu Gen found that the production tasks of the artillery department were not many, and after the rocket launcher designed by Liu Gen proved its own power, the artillery department received an order from the headquarters and successfully produced a batch. It is only limited by the objective conditions of the arsenal that rocket artillery cannot be produced on a large scale, which also leads to the fact that the artillery department is now mainly producing artillery shells.

As for the manufacture and production of mortars, there are not too many, there is no way, who makes the arsenal limited in steel reserves? In the arsenal, there are too many places that need to use steel, and the artillery department needs a lot of steel to carry out the corresponding production, without steel, even if Kong Jue and others have strong technical ability, it will not be of any use.

"Kong Jue, these are relevant design drawings, you can see if there are any problems."

"If there is no problem, these weapons and equipment I designed will be produced by you, and let me see how capable you are. If you have any questions, you can ask me directly. Liu Gen called Kong Jue and directly handed him the design drawings he had drawn out in time.

During the period of teaching Kong Jue and others, Liu Gen could clearly see that Kong Jue's learning ability was quite good, in order to help Kong Jue get more improvement, he decided to relax this time and let Kong Jue make these weapons and equipment, as for how long it would take Kong Jue to make these weapons and equipment, Liu Gen felt that it should not be too long.

has clear design drawings, the weapons and equipment on it are still so simple, and it is not difficult to manufacture, plus with Liu Gen's presence, Kong Jue will not be able to manufacture these weapons and equipment.

"Good!" Kong Jue took the drawing and said very seriously.

Kong Jue has always regarded Liu Gen as his goal, and he worked so hard to improve himself in order to catch up with Liu Gen's footsteps, and he wanted to prove that he was not worse than Liu Gen. Now that Liu Gen has given such an opportunity to improve, Kong Jue will naturally not miss it, he needs to grow up quickly until he is even more powerful than Liu Gen!
