Chapter 324: Persuasion (Second Watch)

The last general knows that the scale is small, the strength is poor, it is impossible to produce artillery and other support weapons, the production of rifles and ammunition is not high, and nearly half of our ammunition is purchased from abroad every year. "Leng Jie still knows a little about the military output during the Anti-Japanese War.

According to incomplete statistics, during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the weapons output of the factories under the Ordnance Industry Administration was 94 combat vehicle defense guns, 13,700 mortars, 96,100 machine guns, 571,600 rifles, 3,500 pistols, 40,900 grenadiers, 1,608,700 rear-loading artillery shells, 6,090,000 mortar shells, 102733 10,000 rounds of various gun shells, grenades, 8,054,900 rounds of grenades, 22,073,500 grenades, 799,300 armor mines, 520 aircraft bombs, 840 tons of black gunpowder, 42.1 tons of smokeless gunpowder, 274.1 tons of explosives, 509,000 gas masks, 51,200 canisters, and a large number of flare guns, flares, explosive packs, etc.

This is incomplete statistics, and the vast majority of them are produced at the Ordnance Base in Chongqing.

In addition, there are some arsenals that do not belong to the Ordnance Industry Administration, such as Yan Laoxi's Taiyuan Arsenal (after the fall of Taiyuan, the Taiyuan Arsenal was very different from the scale before the war, and could only be regarded as a small arsenal), the Gui Arsenal, the Sichuan Army's Arsenal, the Yunnan Army Arsenal and the Eighth Route Army's Arsenal.

However, these arsenals are not large in scale and do not produce much.

There is also an obvious statistic, that is, during the Anti-Japanese War, China did not produce a single mountain cannon or other artillery.

The reason is also very simple, because of the shortage of steel, the only thing that is used to produce weapons such as mortars is gone.

Therefore, during the Anti-Japanese War, if one artillery was destroyed, there would be one less, and the Central Army was better, and a division could still have a certain number of mountain artillery.

The miscellaneous troops are miserable, and maybe not a single army will not have a mountain artillery.

Except for the Jin Sui Army and the Northeast Army, after all, they all had their own arsenals before, and the output of artillery was not low.

"Looks like you know a lot about these things!" Yu Dawei was a little surprised, "Since you know the situation, you should know how impractical these two weapons you have developed, right?" ”

Although it was not clear how Leng Jie knew about these circumstances, he had no intention of pursuing them.

"The last general also knows, but the last general thinks that even if the semi-automatic rifle can't enter the eyes of Director Yu, the submachine gun designed by the last general can definitely be."

For the Stern submachine gun, Leng Jie is very confident.

First of all, this submachine gun has a simple structure and is cheap to build, in addition, its 9×19mm bullet can be produced in China.

Because the Stern submachine gun was historically simplified from the German MP40 submachine gun, and the German submachine gun used 9×19mm bullets.

Although China is not equipped with the MP40, there are many imitations of the MP18, which is the so-called flower machine gun.

"Why? The government does not intend to mass-produce submachine guns, and it is also going to open a special bullet production line, which will affect the production of other bullets. Yu Dawei still disagreed.

"Director Yu, what if this weapon is very low-cost, has good performance, and is easy to produce? Director Yu, as the director of the Ordnance Industry Administration, should know the role of such a weapon in warfare, although we may not need it, but the United States and Britain and other countries need it. Leng Jie said.

"You're planning to sell this weapon?" Yu Dawei understood it, "But the United States and Britain don't need submachine guns, the United States hasn't entered the war yet." ”

"Britain has entered the war, and it is only a matter of time before the United States enters the war, and the United States and Britain very much need this kind of submachine gun with low cost, simple structure, and good performance, so that it can be produced at high speed in wartime." Leng Jie affirmed, "The soldiers of the United States and Britain are afraid of death, and their industrial systems are developed, so they will naturally pursue strong firepower to avoid excessive casualties among soldiers."

The United States now has a submachine gun, that is, the Thomson submachine gun, but this submachine gun has a complex structure, expensive construction, and is not suitable for mass production.

The British, on the other hand, did not have submachine guns at all, and after seeing German weapons, the last general believed that he was in great demand for submachine guns.

The reason why I came to see Director Yu at the end was that I wanted to sell this weapon to Britain and the United States, and get some machinery and equipment from Britain and the United States to increase the weapons production of the Ordnance Industry Administration.

If we can, this weapon will be equipped on our own army, and I believe that the last general will shine brightly. ”

In fact, Leng Jie has other options, such as letting Wang Lin register a patent in the United States and open an arsenal.

In that way, it would not be difficult to make a lot of money just by relying on the weapons he designed during the entire war, but he didn't want to do this, and it would be better if he could improve the strength of his country's military industry.

Yu Dawei looked at Leng Jie, and he couldn't see through this young man, and after pondering for a while, he said, "You leave the sample gun and drawings, and I'll let people verify the performance of this submachine gun." ”

Yu Dawei did not agree on the spot, after all, this is not a trivial matter, and he also needs to consider many things before making a decision.

"Big brother, I said that we won't need these weapons for the time being." Walking out of the office building of the Ordnance Industry Administration, Han Bin couldn't help but say.

"How do you know if you don't try?" Leng Jie said, "If you can, let Wang Lin find someone over there to buy this weapon." ”

"Wang Lin came forward to buy it?" Han Bin hesitated.

"Don't worry, I will give you more weapon drawings, which will be installed by the US military in the future, for example, they will be equipped with light weapons such as bazooka bazookas, and I remember their structure.

I don't know about heavy weapons, but these light weapons are fine.

When the time comes, you can open your own arsenal or sell it to other weapons companies.

By the way, should you think about jeeps? ”

As for AK47 or something, Leng Jie doesn't plan to give it to the United States, and what he wants to sell is also equipment from the United States and Britain, but he just makes a difference in time and makes a lot of money.

Han Bin thought for a while, "I'll talk to Xiao Lin about this!" ”

Of course, Leng Jie actually prefers Wang Lin to be a middleman and sell weapons patents and technologies, because those arms giants are not good at stubble, and it is good to be a second-hand dealer, and they can make money, and they will not take so much risk.

。。。。。。

"Director, the 8th Independent Brigade has broken through!"

Mao Hong came to Li Hai covered in blood, looking a little depressed.

"Break through the siege, just break through, I didn't think I could annihilate this Jin Sui army."

Seeing that this Jin Sui army broke out of the encirclement, Li Hai still felt a little pity, it would be nice if he could be completely annihilated, but it was a pity that he couldn't do it.

"Director, it's just a little bit, we're almost going to be able to annihilate them!" Mao Hong blamed himself.

"Don't blame yourself too much, this Jin Sui army has fought a lot of battles, and its combat effectiveness is good, although our army has more troops than them, but it has only been expanded in recent months, and it is not as good as this Jin Sui army.

It's good to be like this!

The order goes down, cleans the battlefield, and we get out of here before dawn tomorrow! ”
