However, what Zhao Heng didn't expect was that the Northeast Army Military Police [Commander of the Northeast Military Police Headquarters: Chen Xingya (stationed in Fengtian) and the deputy commander of the headquarters are two, but there are actually three, one is Li Xiangpu in Shenyang, and the other is Shao Wenkai who is stationed in Beiping with the young marshal. Another deputy commander: Li Run (stationed in Shanxi)] Yang Hongji's 1st Brigade, Zhu Enhai's 2nd Brigade, and Fu Changrui's 4th Brigade are also in the arsenal. (The military police of the Northeast Army has only one battalion of military police, which is divided into six companies, and is known to the outside world as six military police brigades.) Yang Hongji's 1st Brigade, Zhu Enhai's 2nd Brigade, and Fu Changrui's 4th Brigade were stationed in Shenyang; Liu Jingquan's 3rd Brigade was stationed in Shanhaiguan; Zhang Jiangqing's 5th Brigade was stationed in Yongji; Wei Fuhai's 6th Brigade was stationed in Longjiang, which is now Qiqihar, the capital of Heilongjiang Province. Each gendarmerie brigade has more than 300 people, and the soldiers are all young officers and soldiers with good military quality and skills selected by various units, and their combat effectiveness is still very strong, and the only deficiency is that their weapons are all short guns. The situation was unexpected, with about 2,000 troops from three brigades. Zhao Heng wondered if the gendarmerie of the Northeast Army did not appear in the arsenal in history, why did it come all of a sudden.

Among them was Yang Hongji's military police brigade, which was originally only equipped with 7.63mm Mauser shell guns, and at this time they were also in the factory area to replace a Liao 13-year style 79 rifle manufactured by the Northeast Arsenal, they were responsible for supervising and guarding the piles of materials in the factory, and the workers were nervously loading these dangerous goods and moving them to a safer place in the factory to stack them. (The 13-year-old rifle in the hands of the military police, mainly copied from the Czech Mauser 98/22 rifle, is currently the main equipment of the Northeast Army.) However, under the corresponding conditions at that time, there were many differences between the Northeast Type 13 and other domestic imitation Mausers, and the Northeast 13-Year Model was almost a mixture of the German Mauser rifle and the Japanese 38 rifle, which could well reflect the maverick character of Zhang Dabeard. This peculiar style of rifle produced by the Northeast Arsenal, The biggest difference and difference with the Mauser 7.92mm rifle is the structure of the bolt, the firing part in the 13-year-old bolt is designed with an internal spring, and the German-style downward curved handle head is changed to an olive-shaped shape for convenience, and there is obviously no no-guide groove on the bolt, so it can not be interchangeable with the usual Mauser bolt even in battle, and even the design of the 13-type rifle and even the dust cover is obviously different from the Japanese-made 38-type 6.5mm rifle. The two decompression holes drilled by the machine on the 13-year-old magazine are borrowed from the design of the Type 38 rifle. This peculiar rifle was designed and manufactured by Han Linchun when he was the general office of the Northeast Arsenal. Han Linchun himself graduated from the Japanese non-commissioned officer school, and he was actively involved in the design of the Liao 13 rifle, so the gun is called "Han's 79 rifle" or "made by Han Linchun" in China. Because the 7.92mm ammunition used is fully compatible with the Mauser 1898 rifle, it is also called the Liao-made 98 79 rifle. Zhu Enhai's 2nd Brigade and Fu Changrui's 4th Brigade assisted the Arsenal Hundreds of Guards to defend the entire Arsenal. (The Shenyang Arsenal immediately lost 150,000 rifles, 60,000 pistols, about 600 mortars, about 400,000 shells, 250 heavy artillery and field guns, more than 300,000 rounds of various bullets, 100,000 shells, and about 400,000 pounds of gunpowder in the September 18 Incident.) The 300 planes accumulated by the aviation department of the three eastern provinces were all plundered by the Japanese army; The $70 million in cash in its sole vault was also looted. The Northeast Arsenal has imitated and equipped many artillery pieces, such as the imitation of the Japanese Type 38 75mm field gun, which was made into the Liao 13 Type 75mm field gun; imitated the Japanese Type 41 75mm mountain gun, and made the Liao 14 type 75mm mountain gun; imitated the Japanese Taisho 11-year 75-mm anti-aircraft gun, and made the Liao 16-type 75-mm anti-aircraft gun; imitated the Austrian Bailu 18-year 30 times 77-mm field gun, and made the Liao 14-year 77-mm field gun; It also copied the Austrian 21 times caliber 100 mm light howitzer and the imitation of the Japanese 38 type 105 mm field cannon. Even imitated the Japanese Type 38 150mm howitzer to create the Liao 14 Type 150mm howitzer. However, the Northeast Arsenal was able to manufacture 240 mm caliber cannons, and the Fengtian Arsenal of the Northeast Army could be called the most advanced and largest military enterprise in China at that time. The establishment of this factory embodies the hard work of two generations of Zhang Dabeard and Zhang Shaoshuai's father and son. In April 1922, Zhang Dabeard, the king of Northeast China, was defeated in the Battle of Zhifeng and suffered heavy losses. Zhang Zuolin himself accepted the suggestion of his son Zhang Xueliang to change the original Fengtian Ordnance Factory into the Arsenal of the Three Eastern Provinces. In Shenyang City, outside the gate of the east side of the re-planning, first of all, the establishment of guns, shells, artillery and other three factories, by the Danish merchant Wende Company to undertake the construction of the entire arsenal, and sent a competent technician Kridun Ermi to the factory to guide the installation, on the west side of the warehouse, build a platform, lay rails, so that the train can go directly to the arsenal factory. After that, it was expanded again in two periods from 1926 to 1928, adding a gun factory and a light machine gun factory, which is said to have more than 8,000 machines. Because of its successive superintendents Yang Yuting, Han Linchun, Tibetan Yi and so on are properly employed, so the arsenal is developing rapidly, becoming one of the largest arsenals in the country at that time, and before the 918 incident, the arsenal of the three eastern provinces has been able to mass-produce its own imitation of the 17 type 65 light machine gun, 13 type 79 heavy machine gun (all copied from the Japanese machine gun).

After Zhao Heng spent some points to explain the information of the arsenal in detail through some of the system mall, it was the first time that he knew the strength of the arsenal in the three eastern provinces in the current country. I saw that the catalogue introduced the fist products of the arsenal of the three eastern provinces: 13 type (the meaning of the thirteenth year of the old Chinese Republic, 79 (7.92 mm means, the same below) rifle, monthly output of 400-4000; 17 type 65 light machine gun, the highest monthly output of 40 pieces; 17 type 79 heavy machine gun, the highest monthly output of 100 pieces; Liao 14 type 37 mm flat-fire guns (imitation of the Japanese Taisho 11-year type 37 mm flat-fire gun), imitation of the addition of a shield, the weight is slightly higher than the mother gun, the high and low firing range is -6 degrees to +16 degrees, the direction firing range is 20 degrees, 29 times the diameter, the bullet weight is 0.658 kg, the loading of TNT explosives is 46.6 grams, the muzzle velocity is 450 m / s, the maximum firing range is 3330 meters, and the total weight of the column is 109.8 kg。

Liao 13 type 75 mm field guns (imitation Japanese 38 type 75 mm field guns) 108, 31 times diameter, steel grenade total weight 6.50 kg, 500 grams of explosives, muzzle velocity 500 m / s, maximum range of 8250 meters.

Liao 14 type 75 mm mountain guns (imitation Japanese 41 type 75 mm mountain guns) 72, 18 times the diameter, the ammunition type is 5.74 kg grenade, 3.74 kg of conical grenade, 6.575 kg of armor-piercing projectile, and howitzer shotgun, muzzle velocity 260 m / s, maximum range 6350 meters.

Liao 16-year 75-mm anti-aircraft guns (imitation of the Japanese Taisho 11-year 75-mm position anti-aircraft guns) 4, 31 times the diameter, muzzle velocity 500 m / s, high and low firing angles of up to 85 degrees, direction firing range 360 degrees, maximum firing range of 8500 meters (Japanese prototype), maximum firing height of 5000 meters, full weight of 2400 kg.

Liao 14-year 77-mm field gun (imitation of Austrian Bailu 18-year type 30 times 77 mm field gun) 320, 30 times the diameter, no need to dig a pit elevation angle can reach 45 degrees, the weight of the bullet is 8 kg, the full ammunition weight is 10.127 kg, equipped with the Liao 14-year type instantaneous short delay fuze (the fuze is also used in the factory's 37 mm flat-fire grenade), the muzzle velocity is 500 m / s, and the maximum firing range is 10,000 meters.

300 imitation Austrian 21 times caliber 100 mm light howitzers (production began in 1924, the original shape is unknown), the muzzle velocity is 360 m / s, the maximum firing range is 7700 m, and the total weight of the column is 1350 kg.

Imitation Japanese Type 38 105mm field cannon (there is also a 105mm field cannon in imitation of the Japanese Taisho 14, but the specifications and time are more like Type 38, because the gun was produced in 1924, and the Japanese Type 14 was only in service in 1925) 12 guns, 29 times the diameter (there is also a 34 times the diameter), the bullet weight is 16 kg, the muzzle velocity is 540 m / s, the maximum range is 11000 meters, and the total weight of the column is 2594 kg.

Liao 14 type 150 mm howitzer (imitation of the Japanese 38 type 150 mm howitzer) 21, the bullet weight is 36 kg, loaded with picric acid explosive, equipped with the day 88 type instantaneous fuse, muzzle velocity 275 m / s, the maximum range of 5900 meters, the total weight of the column is 1850 kg (more than 400 kg lighter than the prototype).

16 imitation Japanese 105-mm light howitzers (produced in 1925, original shape unknown) (until 1928), with a maximum range of 11,000 meters.

It was also tried to imitate the Japanese 240 mm heavy howitzer, which was not officially put into production (more than 30 tons of a monster, the cost is too high).

The arsenal of the three eastern provinces produced a full range of guns and guns, and the quality was also high, and it was the only factory in China that had produced cannons at that time, and the howitzers were also mass-produced, which was incomparable with other military factories. However, the disadvantage is that the output is low, with an annual output of 150-200 guns (the monthly output of light and heavy artillery in the Taiyuan Arsenal during the same period can reach 35); few improvements (the range of the imitation Japanese Type 41 mountain gun improved by the Taiyuan Arsenal can reach 7,000 meters, and the 75-mm field gun produced by the Shanghai Arsenal can reach 11,000 meters); There are problems with the quality and variety of artillery shells, such as the Liao 14-year 77 mm field gun, after using the new grenade produced by the Gongxian Arsenal (with the 25-type Bufus two-action fuse, the seven-hole tube medicine, and the full ammunition weight of 11.915 kg), the range can reach 11,000 meters, which is far higher than the range when using the grenades produced by the Northeast Army itself.

There are also problems with the imitation prototypes, such as the Skoda 1915 75 mm mountain gun (range 8250 meters) performance is better than the Japanese Type 41, the Skoda 1916 100 mm 19 times diameter howitzer performance (range 9280 meters) is better than the 21 times diameter 100 mm howitzer, the French Schneider 1913 105 mm cannon performance (range 12000 meters) is better than the Japanese 38 type, the Japanese Taisho 11 75 mm field anti-aircraft gun performance (range 10900 meters, 6650 meters in height) is better than the positional type, and the performance of the 150 mm howitzer of the Japanese Taisho 4 type (range 8800 meters) is also better than that of the Japanese 38 type, and it is possible to get these guns to imitate better weapons, but unfortunately it was not possible. Zhao Heng, whose eyes were almost exposed, burst into a foul mouth: "It's really amazing!" Even heavy guns of such size as 240 mm can be produced. Then he added: "No wonder it's one of the largest arsenals in the country, but then I let the little devils take advantage of it." Luckily, nothing happened to me here. Now Zhao Heng has mixed feelings in his heart, and he originally thought it was just a big arsenal. Only now did I discover that the large-scale arms manufacturer established by the Feng warlord Erzhang and his son in Shenyang was a large-scale arsenal with relatively strong strength in China at that time, and some products were even beyond the reach of other arms companies, and the Feng army was also famous for its advanced equipment among the warlords of all roads in China, until the Anti-Japanese War, only the so-called Central 'Central' Army of the self-proclaimed orthodox Southern and Beiyang government, the all-German armament division, was stronger than the Northeast Army in terms of equipment (the impression of people at that time was indeed so). "Damn, I didn't expect them to put their self-made Liao 13 Type 79 rifle and the Type 17 65 light machine gun imitating the crooked handle light machine gun at our heads, and the Czech light machine gun at our heads, these bastards dared to mount 4 37mm flat-fire guns at the door and face us!" It doesn't matter if Zhao Heng doesn't look up, as soon as he looks up, he sees that the two tall and sturdy cement watchtowers on both sides of the factory gate are already full of rifles, light machine guns, and heavy machine guns, and then looks at the now open gate of the arsenal, and the four Liao 14-year 37mm flat-fire guns are placed side by side, and the muzzles are facing Long Bazun and his men. The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

At this time, Zhao Heng roared angrily: "The 30mm machine gun is aimed at the cement watchtower and the commanding height, and the 85mm tank gun is aimed at a few 37 guns at the gate of the factory. ”

"Yes" After receiving the order, the hammer medium tank leaning behind shook the turret and raised its muzzle at several 37 guns at the factory gate, as long as it found that someone dared to open fire, it directly killed its own 85mm tank gun; Although the B-TR90 round battle was a little far away, its long-barreled 30mm cannon was still pointed at the crowd on the concrete watchtower and the commanding heights, and as soon as the opponent opened fire, it would be greeted with murderous greetings from 30 shells.
