Chapter VIII New Ideas for Solving Equipment
This pocket repair institute composed of only five employees has a simple set of basic fitter tools, except for a chemical talent named Xu Yaming, the other workers are all the technical backbone of the original three eastern provinces arsenal persuaded and agitated by the underground party organization a few years ago!
Zhao Guangcai, the director of the repair institute, is a well-known technical master in the arsenal, and before the 918 incident, he was already the head of the fitter section. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Listening to Wei Zhengmin's introduction, Ding Chenggong came to the door of the repair shop with great interest, and at this time, Zhao Guangcai, who was wearing a new type of cold-proof suit, was leading the workers to use simple old tools to repair a damaged captured crooked machine gun on the vise platform.
Walking into the door of the repair shop, Zhao Guangcai was still concentrating on repairing the machine gun, and he didn't notice Ding Chenggong and Wei Zhengmin at all.
Ding Chenggong didn't speak, looked at Wei Zhengmin and smiled, then walked to Zhao Guangcai's side, and watched the process of repairing the gun with great interest.
Looking at the exquisite and skilled fitter skills of Zhao Guangcai and the workers, Ding Chenggong couldn't help but nod again and again, secretly exclaiming his surprise!
Compared with theirs, the Afghan gunsmiths and the craftsmen of the small Philippine arsenal that Ding Chenggong has seen are all apprentices who have just started!
It was only at this time that Zhao Guangcai noticed Wei Zhengmin and Ding Chenggong under the reminder of his colleagues.
"Secretary Wei, when did you come? Look at me, I don't know if I'm working! ”
As soon as Zhao Guangcai saw Wei Zhengmin, he hurriedly stopped what he was doing and explained with some embarrassment.
Wei Zhengmin was obviously very satisfied with Zhao Guangcai's work spirit, and after a few gentle compliments, he introduced Ding Chenggong to him.
"You're the one who raised a lot of supplies for us?"
Zhao Guangcai glanced at Ding Chenggong seriously, and when he saw Ding Chenggong smiling and nodding in confirmation, he immediately couldn't wait to say, "Then can you bring us a batch of new tools next time?" If we can get a little better steel, we can fix these seventeen broken guns in less than ten days! ”
"Yes, Mr. Ding, can you help us get nitric acid and toluene?"
Xu Yaming also came over and asked seriously: "As long as I have nitric acid, toluene and several other ordinary chemical raw materials, I can prepare nitrocellulose, nitroglycerin and even talk, this weak scholar with glasses and a teacher's appearance said to Ding Chenggong with a sincere face: "Create explosives, we can fight more wars, kill more devils, and avenge the Chinese who died tragically in the hands of devils!" ”
As soon as he heard this, Ding Chenggong was moved, and suddenly his mouth suddenly opened!
In modern society, he cannot buy ready-made guns, ammunition, weapons and equipment for a while, but he can completely purchase raw materials and production equipment for the production of weapons and equipment, and provide advanced production technology, production technology and many revolutionary advanced weapon designs!
Taking a step back, even in the time and space of the Anti-Japanese War, the anti-union guerrillas with difficult conditions could not produce qualified and applicable guns and ammunition in a short period of time, as long as they could purchase several ordinary daily chemicals from modern time and space, as the former king of special warfare soldiers, he could still easily produce all kinds of powerful bombs!
As soon as he made up his mind, Ding Chenggong told Wei Zhengmin his thoughts.
After receiving Wei Zhengmin's praise and strong support, Ding Chenggong stayed alone in the repair institute and carefully understood the details of the repair institute.
While working with the workers and masters of the repair shop, while chatting, Ding Chenggong casually expressed his opinions on firearms knowledge, which immediately shocked Zhao Guangcai and others, and immediately regarded Ding Chenggong as an expert in the ordnance industry!
Letting go of the rustiness in their hearts, the workers and masters started in-depth exchanges with Ding Chenggong very enthusiastically.
After this chat, Ding Chenggong knew that these simple workers in front of him, who were not amazing, were all famous technical masters in the arsenals of the three eastern provinces!
In particular, Zhao Guangcai, the director of the repair institute, as the leading technical master of the Northeast Arsenal, was proficient in the cutting and milling of pliers, not to mention, and also participated in the trial production of the ten-round automatic gun that year, and made a sample gun by himself, and successfully passed the test!
And Xu Yaming, who took the initiative to ask him for chemical raw materials, is not simple!
He graduated from the Department of Chemistry of Northeastern University, and after joining Wang Delin's National Salvation Army, he successfully trial-produced smokeless propellants, nitrocellulose, nitroglycerin and even powerful explosives in the Ordnance Institute!
With such outstanding professionals, Ding Chenggong was overjoyed, and immediately took out several classic old guns that he mastered that were in the limelight in World War II.
The first thing to show is, of course, the famous World War II gun Bobosha 41.
After carefully looking at the schematic diagram of the Bobosha submachine gun depicted by Ding Chenggong, Zhao Guangcai first praised a few words of "good idea, good design", and then said with some regret: "It's a pity that this design has adopted a large number of stamping processes in the process, and we lack stamping equipment, and we lack experience in using this equipment." Just our small repair shop, we can't produce it! ”
Seeing that his favorite World War II gun was not selected by professionals, Ding Chenggong was a little surprised.
However, having been on the battlefield and tested on the battlefield, he knows that he can't be stubborn in everything, let alone be stubborn, and he must listen to the opinions of others, especially professionals!
After a little thought, Ding Chenggong put away the sketch of the Bobosha submachine gun he had drawn.
Picking up the pen, he skillfully drew another classic submachine gun that was out of the limelight in World War II.
As soon as he saw the concise drawings drawn by Ding Chenggong's skillful drawing, Zhao Guangcai and the others couldn't help but be secretly surprised!
"This gun is designed to be applauded!"
Looking at the finished sketch, Zhao Guangcai couldn't help but praise repeatedly: "The barrel is round, the sleeve is also round, the butt is still round, and even the bolt handle is a small round tube." It looks simple and crude, but there are few parts, easy to process, and the most important thing is to save labor and materials, low cost, and it is the most suitable for our anti-union production! ”
"Director Zhao said yes, then it must be good!"
Ding Chenggong praised Zhao Guangcai, made a decision, and said seriously to the workers and masters of the repair shop: "Then we are ready to manufacture this submachine gun, machinery and equipment, raw materials, and the chemical raw materials that Xu Yaming Xu asked you for, I will prepare when I go back!" ”
The method of supporting the weapons and equipment of the Anti-United Nations was determined, and Ding Chenggong was in a very good mood. Let Zhao Guangcai and Xu Yaming make a list of the materials they need, carefully put them away, and then leave the ordnance station.
"What's the matter, Mr. Ding, what's going on, you're in such a happy mood?"
As soon as he saw Ding Chenggong, Wei Zhengmin greeted with a smile: "Could it be that he picked up the gold ingot?" ”
"I didn't find the gold ingots, but it's almost the same!"
Ding Chenggong smiled very confidently and said, "Secretary Wei, I have found a way to provide weapons and equipment for our anti-Japanese team!" ”
"Really?"
Wei Zhengmin was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "What way?" ”
"Doesn't our Anti-Union have such a big treasure as the Repair Institute?"
Ding Chenggong happily explained: "I can't get ready-made guns and ammunition for the time being, but I can think of some way to produce the basic equipment and raw materials used to produce these things." ”
As he spoke, Ding Chenggong said seriously: "With equipment and sufficient raw materials, plus Zhao Guangcai, Xu Yaming, a professional and technical talent with superb mobile phones and excellent technology, it is not a problem to produce simple light weapons and ordinary ammunition at all!" ”
Wei Zhengmin nodded and smiled gratefully: "This is also a good way!" It's just that there are only five people in our repair shop, and even if you get machinery and equipment and raw materials, there are too few people, and the output is still very limited! ”
Ding Chenggong also knew that relying only on the formation of a small repair shop by five workers could not fundamentally solve the problem of weapons and equipment of the Anti-Japanese Federation and other patriotic and anti-Japanese armed forces.
But as the saying goes. Meals must be eaten one bite at a time, things must be done step by step, and everything must be done from scratch first!
"I know, but the conditions are limited, we can only find a way to be self-sufficient!"
Ding Chenggong patiently persuaded: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, and this matter is not urgent. Let's solve the problem of having and not having first! ”
Of course, Wei Zhengmin also understood this truth, and he was relieved after a little thought.
Just as he was about to say something more to Ding Chenggong, he heard the surprised voice of the female military doctor Lin Jie from the hospital: "Xiao Cao, you're awake!" Great, Xiao Cao woke up! Commander Cao, Xiao Cao has woken up! ”
As soon as he heard the news, Wei Zhengmin was immediately overjoyed, and he took a big stride towards the hospital.
Ding Chenggong also smiled and strode closely behind.
When I came to the ward, I saw that Company Commander Cao, who was still unconscious in the morning and was dying, had already opened his eyes, regained his senses, and was talking weakly to Lin Jie and Cao Yafan!
"Okay, Xiao Cao just woke up and needs to recuperate, so let's not bother anymore!"
Looking at Lin Jie and Xiao Cao's eyes that were concerned about each other, and the shy look that they couldn't let go of in front of everyone, Cao Yafan, who was in his heart at the moment, smiled slightly, and left the hospital with Wei Zhengmin and Ding Chenggong.
As soon as he left the hospital, Ding Chenggong told Cao Yafan about his solution to the problem of weapons and equipment of the Anti-United Nations First Army.
"That's a great idea!"
Cao Yafan immediately said happily: "If you can't buy ready-made guns and ammunition, let's make them ourselves!" ”
"It's just that the scale of our repair shop is too small, and we can't solve big problems in a short time!"
Wei Zhengmin still has some regrets.
"There is a way to solve this matter!"
Cao Yafan groaned slightly, and then said the solution: "Originally, the armory station set up by Wang Delin's National Salvation Army in Tonghua was not small. There were quite a few patriotic workers from the arsenals of the three eastern provinces working in it.
After the main force of the National Salvation Army retreated into the Soviet Union, these workers did not follow, but stayed in the area of Dongbian Province and became craftsmen such as blacksmiths. Life is very difficult for the most part.
As long as we do more work and mobilize them to participate in our repair institute, we will be sure! ”
Wei Zhengmin became interested at once, and asked eagerly: "How many such workers are there?" How much can we mobilize? ”
"No less than seventy!"
Cao Yafan thought about it carefully and said seriously: "As long as we fight a few more beautiful battles, let the people see our determination and ability to resist the war, and the number will be even more!" ”
Knowing this, Ding Chenggong was also very happy.
According to the information provided by Cao Yafan, as long as he can raise basic production equipment and ensure the sufficient supply of raw materials, the scale of this arsenal will be at least more than seventy people!
A modern arsenal with a scale of nearly 100 people, even if it adopts the equipment and technology of the sixties and seventies of the last century, can still produce a considerable amount of weapons and equipment and various ammunition!
Such an arsenal can become a stable source of weapons and equipment for the anti-Japanese forces and other patriotic anti-Japanese forces.
With sufficient weapons and ammunition, logistical supplies, heroic and good fighting, and determined anti-Japanese fighters, they will definitely become a lingering nightmare for devils and traitors!
As soon as he thought of this, Ding Chenggong couldn't sit still any longer.
He was anxious, and he couldn't care about Wei Zhengmin, Cao Yafan, and several leaders of the anti-coalition forces, so he was about to leave immediately!
"Mr. Ding, don't be in a hurry!"
Wei Zhengmin hurriedly grabbed Ding Chenggong's hand and said sincerely: "This time, you have to prepare supplies for thousands of people for us, and you also have to buy equipment and raw materials for the production of weapons and equipment, how can you do it without bringing a little more money!" ”
As he spoke, he asked Cao Yafan to send a heavy money bag, a prepared exquisite mahogany box!
"This is the nine thousand two hundred silver dollars we have prepared for you. Inside the box were gold and silver jewelry and other valuable things we had raised. ”
Wei Zhengmin said seriously: "These things may not be worth the purchase of materials this time, and the shortfall is not enough, Mr. Ding, you will do a good job of statistics and pay in advance." When we win a few more battles and have more captures, we will definitely return the full amount! ”
"Mr. Ding, take it!"
Cao Yafan also immediately said: "With sufficient funds, your business can continue to operate and support us more persistently!" ”
After accepting this heavy amount of money and goods, Ding Chenggong secretly made up his mind that he must raise the most suitable and timely supplies for these simple, firm, heroic and warlike anti-Japanese soldiers!
