"That's the case, as soon as the military seat arrived in Beiping, Jin Hu went to Zhangjiakou to find the military seat, the loss of the decisive death corps was a little large, Jin Hu hoped to get the support of the military seat, the military seat was not there, and finally it was the chief of staff Gao Jian who came forward to solve the matter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Seeing that Li Han turned his gaze to himself, Wang Wei explained.

Some time ago, the Golden Tiger's Northeast Anti-Japanese Corps was taken care of by the Japanese, although the Golden Tiger adopted the strategy of breaking the whole into parts, but they were soldiers after all, even if they were broken into pieces, they would inevitably have to fight with the Japanese army.

Besides, Japan's encirclement and suppression is not something that can be avoided by breaking it into parts, but it is actually a last resort.

Before the troops dispersed, Jin Hu led the main force of the Anti-Japanese Decisive Death Corps to fight several tough battles with the Japanese Hase-United, although the Anti-Japanese Decisive Death Corps had a slight advantage in numbers, but their soldiers' quality and weapons and equipment were too far from the Hase-United.

After only five days, more than half of the casualties of the Death Brigade were killed, but fortunately, their sacrifice was not worthless, and they successfully slowed down the speed of the advance of the Hase-United, and bought time for the transfer of the large rear.

After the evacuation of the rear personnel, Jin Hu took the rest of the personnel directly into the Mongolian steppe, and he himself returned to Chahar to ask for reinforcements.

In Li Han's absence, Gao Jian and Shi Shi'an discussed and directly handed over the 2,000 rifles produced by the arsenal to Jin Hu, so that he could restore the troops to their original size as soon as possible.

Along with the rifle, the 1.1 million rounds of ammunition were delivered to the Golden Tiger, and at present, the various units of the security forces have no other consumption except for some ammunition consumption in daily training.

The anti-Japanese decisive corps led by Jin Hu had a great demand for ammunition because of the fact that they were in the Japanese-occupied areas in the northeast almost every day, with a small battle on three days and a big battle on five days.

"I know the person Jin Hu, like his brother Jin Long, he has a martial personality, if he doesn't have no way, he will definitely not come to Chahar in person to ask for help. Gao Jian has done a good job, not only that, but we must also increase our assistance to the anti-Japanese death brigade. ”

Li Han sighed, he originally wanted to expand the Decisive Death Corps into a Decisive Column, but now that the Decisive Squad has suffered serious losses, and even the original establishment is not complete, this matter has to be postponed for the time being.

"This time I went to Beiping, I had already negotiated a big deal with the Germans, and the Germans had promised to help us build a steel plant with an annual output of 100,000 tons.

In addition, the production line of Mauser rifles has also been negotiated, and the production line of artillery shells of 88 caliber and 105 caliber has been added.

Next, we can produce the Mauser 1924 rifle, Director Liao, you estimate how much we can produce at that time. ”

"The main thing is to look at the equipment, if the steel plant mentioned by the military seat can be built and the equipment is complete, with the addition of the original equipment of the arsenal, under the condition of sufficient funds, the monthly output of rifles should reach 2,000.

Of course, this is mainly due to the fact that our arsenal is currently only a single production rifle, so the production will be higher. However, if we can produce Mauser rifles, then Liaozao Jiuba should continue to produce. ”

Liao Zhilong asked, the performance of the Mauser rifle is undoubtedly better than that of the Liaozao 98, if two models of rifles are produced at the same time, then the output of the Mauser rifle will definitely only reach half of what he expected, and the cost of production will be increased.

The production of two rifles with inconsistent models will definitely cause a waste of raw materials, and as the director of the arsenal, he hopes that Li Han can produce one model of rifle in a unified manner.

"Then let's go all out to produce Mauser rifles, two thousand rifles a month will do. In addition, the production rate of bullets should also be increased, at least to 500,000 rounds per month. As for the funds, I will allocate 200 silver dollars to Chairman Wang, and if there is any difficulty in the arsenal at that time, you can go directly to Chairman Wang. ”

If the cost of this investment is added, Chahar's arsenal itself and Wang Wei have already invested more than 6 million silver dollars on it, and the number of employees in the arsenal has increased from 1,000 to 2,000, and after this batch of equipment arrives, it will continue to expand.

In addition to artillery shells, the arsenal is only responsible for the production of rifles, but even so, it can reach the level of two thousand per month, and Li Han has once again seen the arsenal's ability to swallow gold.

However, if you scatter millions of dollars, you will be able to make guns yourself, and in the future, you will have enough bullets and shells, and you don't have to be the god of wealth to throw money at the powers, and there will be no scruples about training the troops. Maybe I'll be able to export to other warlords at that time.

"Although our arsenal can't make cannons, it should be no problem to produce grenades, and you should do a good job of this matter as soon as possible."

The function of the grenade is still good, the production is easy, the cost is low, but the power is very large, the grenade rain is formed when it is used intensively, and the power of the explosion is not less than the heavy artillery, and it is the best portable equipment for the Chinese army whose firepower is not comparable to the Japanese army.

"Yes, Throne! There is no difficulty in producing grenades, and tomorrow an additional workshop for the production of grenades can be opened. ”

In any case, it is also an arsenal built with millions of silver dollars, and manufacturing grenades is also a matter of opening an additional production workshop for Liao Zhilong.

"Junzao, I heard that the Japanese were robbed of hundreds of tons of silver by robbers in Beiping, and Junzao negotiated a big deal of more than 9 million silver dollars with the Germans on a trip to Beiping, and just said that he would give me 2 million, shouldn't it be ......" After Liao Zhilong left, Wang Wei asked Li Han.

"That's right, it's me and Jin Long, I've been staring at Jin Long for almost three months with this batch of silver, not only that, I don't plan to let go of the silver that the Japanese have stored in Tianjin.

You are now the chairman of the Chahar province and should know the harm that the Japanese are doing to our country. Li Han said coldly.

"Of course, I know how powerful it is, and there are even a lot of smugglers in Chahar, but they have all been severely cracked down by us.

And I don't think there's any need for the military seat to take this risk, Chahar is no longer what it used to be, and ten million silver dollars is huge, but we can earn it in seven or eight months.

However, if something happens to the military seat in Beiping, and Chahar is surrounded by strong enemies, I am afraid that the development situation that Chahar has won so hard will fall apart in an instant, and this will not be even more than worth the loss. ”

The Silver Act has begun to affect all provinces in the country, and Chahar is no exception, but this does not have a great impact on Chahar.

At present, Chahar is mainly in light industry, and it has been immigrating to the province, and it is almost the same for self-production and self-sale, and there is a little bit of export left, which will naturally not be affected much.

As for heavy industry, there are several small steel plants, gunpowder factories, cement factories. Needless to say, the steel plant and the gunpowder factory, but the orders from the arsenal accounted for 60% of their monthly output, and the rest was divided up by other enterprises, and basically the supply exceeded demand every month.

There is a surplus of cement, but next to him is a province like Hebei, and they can't grab foreign cement from large quantities, but the cement that the people need is basically contracted by them.

The people's demand for cement is small, and it is impossible for foreign cement producers to ship them from the other side of the ocean for their little orders.

Although the money that Li Han grabbed this time is worth seven or eight months' income of the Chahar provincial government, of course, this refers to the net income.

But Wang Wei still didn't approve of him doing this, Chahar continued to develop steadily, and what Li Han wanted to do, as long as he was willing to spend time, he could do it, and there was no need to take this risk.

"Don't worry, this should be the last time, and as long as the Japanese don't take the initiative to provoke us in the future, I won't provoke them again."

Wang Wei always wanted to develop Chahar well, and after he had money, he slowly began to improve his armaments. If it had been a few years earlier, Li Han would have agreed with Wang Wei's plan

It's a pity that what they lack now is time, and they are about to enter the next half year of 1934, and there are only three years left before the outbreak of the July 7 Incident.

Even the past three years are only relative to other provinces outside Jicha, and the two provinces will definitely not want to spend the next three years in peace.

Li Han couldn't be clearer about his character, he would definitely not compromise with the Japanese in the slightest, once the Japanese touched their bottom line, Chahar was bound to break out a war with the Japanese before the country, so Li Han would be in a hurry to raise the strength of the security army.

Of course, Wang Wei didn't know this, and Li Han never interfered with Wang Wei's decision, and both of them were developing Chahar according to their own plans.

"I hope that the military seat will focus on the overall situation!"

Li Han's answer is basically equivalent to not saying anything to Wang Wei, and Wang Wei is also clear about what kind of virtue the Japanese are.

Although their current center of gravity is in Beiping, with the continuous expansion of the North China garrison army. His old rival, the Eighth Division, is probably about to turn its attention to Chahar.

The current division commander of the Eighth Division has been changed to Kotaro Nakamura, this old devil has no idea about Chahar for the time being, because he is about to be promoted and return to China to take up his post, he doesn't want to be like Nishiyichi, and he will get into trouble with himself again, he doesn't have a deep relationship with Nishiyichi.

However, the commander of the Kwantung Army, Nanjiro, was not a good man, and he would definitely not give up his aggression against Chahar, which meant that it was impossible for Li Han to say that the Japanese did not provoke him.

Although everything was arranged, it would take at least two months for the Germans to transport the machinery and artillery to Chahar.

During this time, the arsenal could also produce 2,000 Liao-made 98 rifles, plus the 2,000 that were given to Jinhu before, there should be no big problem in terms of weapons.

But with only rifles, in the face of the Japanese sweep, the Golden Tiger still suffered a lot. Therefore, Li Han planned to transfer a batch of mortars and infantry guns from various units of the security army to strengthen the firepower of the decisive brigade.
