Chapter 239: Model Dismounted
"Will the No. 2 recoilless gun work? I must have a definite answer today! ”
In a courtyard outside Xidan in the capital, the fire was burning, providing a warm current for the huge house, rushing straight to the chimney on the roof, sending bursts of smoke and dust out of the house, but there were still a lot of unpleasant smells, Wu Yunzhe was not in good health, and the leader of the recoilless artillery research and development team was extremely busy with work, and over time he contracted the wind cold.

Choked by this smoke and dust, he immediately coughed violently, and the head of the general rear, who was pacing quickly in the room with his hands behind his back, saw Wu Yunzhe like this, his serious face couldn't help but show a trace of unbearability, and even the tone of his voice eased a lot: "Comrade Yunzhe, you can not consider my personal feelings, but you must also think about the overall situation, North Korea is moving from offensive to stalemate;
We will not be able to come up with so many whole weapons and equipment in the short term, and we will have to buy them from the Soviet Union; The basic national economy needs to be ...... This is not said by red mouths and white teeth, but can only be achieved with real money, but now our country has only been established for more than a year, and the foundation is thinner than that of poor peasants......"
"But you can't just let the No. 2 recoilless artillery project go down, chief, what is his prospect, I think you know very well!" Without waiting for the head of the General Logistics Department to finish speaking, Wu Yunzhe interrupted the words of the General Logistics Chief with a violent cough, and immediately looked at the General Logistics Chief with an extremely stubborn gaze, and said word by word: "He is very important to our army now and even in the future, in an army that cannot achieve mechanization in the short term, and cannot even achieve motorization, this kind of light anti-tank weapon is simply the best equipment tailored for our army!" ”
Wu Yunzhe, with his unique stubbornness, faced the sharp gaze of the head of the General Logistics Department, maybe others were extremely afraid of the head of the General Logistics Department, and they didn't even dare to look at it directly, but Wu Yunzhe was not, it was not that he was not afraid, just because of the persistence in his heart, as long as it was beneficial to the army and the country, he would do it without hesitation.
This was the case with Wu Yunzhe during the Anti-Japanese War, when he proposed that he could try to produce a simple howitzer for our army, but due to the shortage of materials and insufficient funds, the military cadres in charge did not agree, but Wu Yunzhe walked more than 200 miles to find the base headquarters, where to sit for three whole days, and in the end directly made the base commander lose his temper, and he could only give him 600 yuan of the ocean.
And Wu Yunzhe is also really capable, 600 pieces of the ocean is a huge amount of money for ordinary people, but it is a drop in the bucket for the development of weapons and equipment, but Wu Yunzhe was stunned to use the 600 pieces of the ocean to make a 75mm light howitzer, and in the battle soon after, the Japanese artillery tower cried and called his mother.
For Wu Yunzhe's past deeds, the head of the General Logistics Department knows better than anyone else, and naturally understands what he came here for, but time has passed, and the miracle of 600 oceans back then may not be repeated, Wu Yunzhe can not survive for the sake of technology and for the project, but the head of the General Logistics Department as a decision-maker can't, so he sighed: "I know what you said, but now it's not as good as before, you can use 600 oceans to develop a 75mm howitzer during the Anti-Japanese War."
It is because at that time our weapons and equipment were worse than now, and a regiment did not have a few heavy machine guns, let alone artillery, so even if it was just a small mountain gun that could fire a few shells, it would make the troops happy for a few days and not be able to sleep, but now, the army is going to be regularized, and what is only used for a few days is no longer a testimony to prove our cleverness, but a ruthless waste of resources, we have just built the country now, and we can't afford to waste it at all, my Comrade Yunzhe! ”
"......"
Wu Yunzhe still wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a word when the words came to his mouth, and he also knew that the No. 2 recoilless artillery could come so far, and the head of the general logistics department didn't know how much pressure it was undergoing.
Since the Volunteer Army launched its third campaign at the end of last year, it ended the campaign in just one week, but before it could be repaired, the mechanized units of the US Army rushed over like a tide, and the extremely tired Volunteer Army had no choice but to launch the fourth campaign, relying on the water network and hills between the 38th and 37th Parallel to stop the US offensive colleagues, and concentrate the main forces to strike at the weak South Korean army.
Although strategically, the U.S. military was afraid that when it rushed to the second battle, it would be passively interspersed by the volunteers on a large scale, and the offensive force was insufficient, but in the face of the U.S. armored units that were harder than turtle shells, the casualties of the volunteers were very huge, and many troops sacrificed entire platoons and entire companies, but they could not recover a single corpse, which made the volunteers very passive.
Therefore, the headquarters of the Chinese People's Volunteers continued to send electricity to the country, hoping to equip them with light anti-tank weapons such as recoilless artillery and individual anti-tank rocket launchers as soon as possible.
As for the anti-tank rocket launchers, in addition to sending some of the "Bazooka" rocket launchers to the front line, it is to step up the development of the No. 2 recoilless artillery, but it is a pity that since Bai Yi left the research and development team and was sent to Siberia, the entire recoilless artillery development team seems to have lost its flexibility, and several successive live-fire tests have not been very ideal.
Although Wu Yunzhe tried his best, the technical level of the two recoilless guns developed was too high, and the relevant industrial capacity was blank, so it could not provide effective support at all, so the progress was not great, and the head of the General Logistics Department was in his eyes and anxious.
While supporting the two new recoilless artillery pieces at several military commission equipment meetings, they also continued to put pressure on the recoilless artillery development team led by Wu Yunzhe, hoping that it could take out the equipment as soon as possible, but when the volunteers were forced to launch the fourth campaign and suffered huge casualties.
The head of the General Logistics Department was also somewhat unable to withstand the pressure from all sides, and was prepared to cut down the No. 2 recoilless gun, which was not making good progress, and put all its resources into the imitation of the simpler and more mature "Bazooka" rocket launcher.
It was when Wu Yunzhe heard the news that he took the train to Beijing overnight, hoping to redeem it, but now after listening to the words of the head of the General Logistics Department, Wu Yunzhe knew that he might really think too simply, so he was ready to organize the language in the organization to see if it could be redeemed, but just as Wu Yunzhe was coughing and pondering, a confidential secretary hurriedly approached and handed an urgent letter to the head of the General Logistics Department.
The head of the general logistics department couldn't help frowning when he took the letter: "This Xiaobai, didn't you hear the wind and come to me to please!" ”
Although the words were a little voiceless, but still unfolded the letter in his hand, only looked at a few glances, the head of the general rear was originally rickety, as if jumped up by a spring, suddenly quite straight, a pair of eyes were even more glared at the boss, the big hand lying on the desk "bang~~" slapped on the table, and then snorted loudly: "This little cypress...... This little cypress ...... It's ...... It's a big mistake! ”
