As soon as he made the decision to relocate the arsenal, Wang Ping refocused his eyes on Zhang Ding in front of him. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Comrade Zhang Ding, in the future, the scale of the arsenal will definitely get bigger and bigger, and one underground factory building will definitely not be enough, and you will also dig out a few warehouses dedicated to hoarding weapons and ammunition, so the task of building an underground arsenal cannot be stopped, and it must continue."

Seeing Zhang Ding's head indicating that he knew, Wang Ping immediately shifted his gaze to the two political commissars.

"Political Commissar Zhou, Political Commissar Luo, without sappers, there would be no underground arsenal that is so easy to defend and difficult to attack. As I said just now, the scale of the arsenal needs to be expanded, and Zhang Ding's task is still very heavy. Therefore, I plan to set up a directly subordinate engineer battalion under the arsenal, with dual leadership of the arsenal and the guard regiment, and Zhang Dinglai as the battalion commander! ”

"I agree!" The two commissars barely thought and nodded directly in agreement.

Wang Ping didn't talk nonsense, and ordered Zhang Ding directly: "Zhang Ding, you heard it, from now on you are the commander of the engineer battalion, temporarily give you the establishment of 500 people, and set up the shelves of the engineer battalion for me within five days." But there is one request, the progress of the construction of the arsenal must not be affected! ”

In the next half month, the arsenal not only completed the relocation, but also directly expanded the production capacity of reloading bullets to 25,000 catties per month.

Not only that, political commissar Zhou Yong also built a small-scale iron-making furnace under the joint guidance of Li Xuebin and Zhou Wu, as long as the raw materials are sufficient, it can smelt nearly 250 catties of pig iron every day.

So that the raw materials for the production of grenades in the arsenal were available.

Because the arsenal has a complete set of parts processing machines, Li Xuebin directly used rail steel to create a set of grenade body molds with grooves on the inner wall. As a result, the arsenal has one more product, two hundred grenades per day!

Not only that, because of the existence of cutting, grinding, drilling and other machine tools, the mechanical group established by Li Xuebin can create all the parts of five rifles except the barrel every day! As long as the barrel can be manufactured, the arsenal will be able to make one hundred and fifty thirty-eight covers every month.

If there are a sufficient number of excellent technicians and a few machines that work around the clock, it is easy to produce 300 imitation 38 covers in a month, equipping an infantry battalion!

"Factory director, we must find a way to solve the machine that makes the barrel as soon as possible!" Political Commissar Zhou Yong found Wang Ping and said very anxiously.

"The broken rifles sent by the front-line troops are basically broken by the barrels. As long as there is a barrel, the rifle parts hoarded by the mechanical group can directly arm three hundred rifles and equip a battalion! ”

"Also, if possible, it's best to take down the two more coal mines of the devil and get some equipment back."

"I asked Professor Li, as long as we can get all the equipment of the two devil mines, he will definitely be able to copy all the equipment of the arsenal. In this way, we can directly double the output of reloading bullets! ”

"In addition, Professor Zhou's side has come up with a production method of smokeless gunpowder, and I am responsible for the raw materials, but the relevant machinery and equipment can only be solved by you!"

Wang Ping was more anxious than Zhou Yong, whether it was the trust of the commander of the military region or the concern of the commander of Yan'an, it gave Wang Ping great pressure.

For several days, although he did not go out, the intelligence of the military district intelligence office continued to send him a steady stream of information.

After a coal mine and a copper mine were attacked some time ago, the Japanese army directly strengthened the defense of these mines. It will definitely be more and more difficult for the arsenal to attack these mines again and again. Therefore, Wang Ping is thinking and choosing, wanting to take down a mine of devils through a battle, and then all the equipment in this mine can meet his needs.

After a few days, he also found a target, a large iron mine controlled by devils.

However, this iron mine is too big, and although it is far away from the city where the devils are stationed with heavy troops, it is not at all difficult to take it by yourself.

Because it was far away from the city, the Japanese army directly built this iron mine as a military fortress.

A reinforced squadron of the Japanese army, a brigade of the mine protection team, and a regiment of the Imperial Allied Army were stationed in it, which were fortified by relying on several permanent firepower points around the mine. Whether it's a strong attack or a sneak attack, it's hard to take it down.

At the beginning, Wang Ping also thought about digging trenches to get close to the opponent's permanent firepower point and shorten the attack time.

However, after the reconnaissance platoon told him about the terrain around the mine, Wang Ping gave up.

Because the whole mountain is a huge iron mine, the whole mountain can almost be called a stone mountain, and the surface is covered with soil only a few tens of centimeters. Not to mention digging trenches, even the offensive bunkers of the troops cannot be dug.

Because there was no way to attack, Wang Ping had not been able to make up his mind to send troops for several days.

Now I see that Zhou Yong is so anxious, and he really wants to make some achievements in the arsenal to repay the commander and the commander who is far away in Yan'an.

After some hesitation, Wang Ping finally decided: "Half a month, political commissar, you give me another half a month, I promise to get the equipment you want back!" ”

That night, Wang Ping called Luo Wenbo, the political commissar of the regiment, and Yang Xiong, the chief of staff, to his room, along with Hong Tao, the commander of the first battalion.

Because of the lack of cadres, except for one battalion commander of the three battalions of the guard regiment, Hong Tao, who was directly promoted to the post of the original company commander, the remaining two battalion commanders were temporarily concurrently served by the political commissar and the chief of staff, and the original two company commanders only served as deputy battalion commanders until Wang Ping thought that they could become battalion commanders and then take over as battalion commanders.

Focusing on the sketches that the reconnaissance platoon had returned from investigation, Wang Ping quickly introduced the situation of the iron mine.

"Regiment commander, it's that we have a little less artillery, if we are equipped with mountain artillery or field artillery, we can directly name the devil's firepower one by one!" Political Commissar Luo Wenbo spoke first.

Chief of Staff Yang Xiong directly denied: "The power of the mountain artillery is definitely not enough, I have seen the reinforced concrete turrets and machine gun bunkers, and the field artillery will shoot a white dot at most when a shell is fired." Unless the shell is directly punched into the firing hole. But with a firing distance of several hundred meters, it is almost impossible to do! ”

"Unless you use the heavy artillery company of the Independent Brigade to borrow three 105 mm heavy guns and shoot them directly, maybe there is still hope to destroy it!"

"Don't even think about heavy artillery!" Wang Ping retorted without hesitation.

"It's so heavy, even if you borrow it, you won't be able to transport it to the mountain!"

Luo Wenbo, who was frowning, couldn't help but complain: "It's not okay to use artillery, and it's not okay to dig trenches to shorten the attack distance, so what should I do!" If it really doesn't work, let's rush hard, I still don't believe it, the little devil can kill us all with a few firepower points! ”

Wang Ping didn't even have the idea of answering this complaint, and directly ignored it to express his denial.

At this moment, Hong Tao, who had not spoken, suddenly said: "Regiment commander, it turns out that when we were still in the Red Army, what we used the most was explosives bag blasting. Even if you can't destroy the bunker, the powerful shockwave can stun the enemies in the bunker to death! ”

"It's just that I can't think of how to get the explosives pack next to the devil's turret."

"If you let the Demoman charge, the casualties of the troop Demoman will definitely be very large, and they may not be able to rush forward!"

Chief of Staff Yang Xiong couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Lao Hong, you didn't say this sentence!" ”

"If I can rush to the vicinity of the devil's bunker, what kind of explosives bag do I use, and throw a few grenades directly into the bunker through the shooting hole, no matter how many devils are hidden inside, they will be blown up!"

The speaker has no intention, and the listener has the intention. An idea suddenly flashed in Wang Ping's mind, feeling that he had found a breakthrough, but he just couldn't think of a specific way.

"Explosives pack...... Drop the explosives package to the bunker and ambush it, and use the shockwave to kill the devils in the bunker! Wang Ping, who was frowning, couldn't help but muttered to himself. Finally, a clear idea appeared in his mind, and the pair of eyes, which were still dim just now, slowly became hot.
