"Mr. Chen, I know that it may not be very polite for me to ask like this, so I will simply talk about the matter. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info I have a plan that is still very vague, this plan may not be heard of by you, I can only say that it is crazy and grandiose, but it may also be a little whimsical. Zhang Cheng slammed his fingers on the table faster and faster, and his tone of voice also became faster, "In order to realize my plan, I need a lot of people like you to help me, I don't know if this plan will succeed in the end, but I know what we will gain after the plan is successful." ”

Zhang Cheng's words made Chen Guangcai feel even more confused, "Brigade Commander Zhang, I don't know what your so-called plan is, and I don't know what role I should play in your plan. ”

Chen Guangcai's words made Zhang Cheng bow his head and be silent, and the action of banging on the table immediately stopped, and the two of them fell silent without speaking, and after a while, Chen Guangcai got up and prepared to leave. "Mr. Chen, I don't think I should hide some things from you, please sit down first, and when I finish talking about the next things I want to say, you can decide whether to continue to help me." Chen Guangcai wanted to leave, but was stopped by Zhang Cheng again, and after a little thought, Chen Guangcai sat down again.

Seeing Chen Guangcai come back and sit down again, a smile appeared on Zhang Cheng's face again, and then he reached out and took out a paper roll from the drawer of the table and put it on the table, and motioned for Chen Guangcai to open the paper roll. Chen Guangcai, who looked inquiring, couldn't control his curiosity, so he opened the paper scroll on the table according to Zhang Cheng's instructions, "God, Brigade Commander Zhang, where did you get this thing?" The paper scroll was opened by Chen Guangcai, and after just a glance at the contents of the paper scroll, Chen Guangcai screamed as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

Zhang Cheng took the paperweight and pressed the four corners of the paper roll, and then looked at Chen Guangcai with a shocked face, "Mr. Chen, there are many economic crises in the United States, there are many history, military factories have closed, and it takes the economic recovery of the United States to recover, and it also needs an opportunity, do you think, can this thing be compared to the automatic rifle of the United States," a paper bag that Zhang Cheng took out of the drawer again was pushed to Chen Guangcai's hand, who opened the paper bag and took out a few pieces of paper inside to look at it, and then looked at Zhang Cheng with eyes full of moisture.

"Mr. Chen, you are Chinese, and now that the country is in danger, you should know the value of these drawings better than me. I'll give you this drawing, and I think the United States will be very interested in it. ”

"Brigade Commander Zhang, you mean that you want me to take this drawing back to the United States," Zhang Cheng's words made Chen Guangcai's eyes widen again, as a senior firearms engineer, how could Chen Guangcai not know the value of this drawing on the table.

Zhang Cheng smiled and shook his head, "No, Mr. Chen Guangcai, you are wrong, it is not handed over to the Americans, but you get the United States, register a patent, buy a factory, and produce it yourself." ”

Zhang Cheng's words made Chen Guangcai almost unbelievable, as a senior firearms engineer, how could he not know the value of the new rifle on the drawings. Chen Guangcai's family does not have an arms factory, and there are no members of the family engaged in military production, but these do not prevent Chen Guangcai from having the professional quality of a firearms engineer. The paper scroll that was sold to Chen Guangcai still contained the design drawings of a new rifle, although this new rifle still existed only on paper, but Chen Guangcai had already seen its value.

This is not Zhang Cheng's spoof, the new rifle shooting drawings on the paper scroll are the result of the efforts of the past few days, but whenever there is a reborn person from the afterlife here, when he sees the material design drawings on the drawings, he can't help but give Zhang Cheng a middle finger. That's right, what Zhang Cheng drew is the design drawings of the famous AK47 in later generations, and the most famous gun in later generations is none other than the AK-47 assault rifle produced in Russia, which can be said to dominate the entire gun world, regardless of the army of any country, there may be such guns.

This kind of gun is the most manufactured and imitated gun on the earth in the 21st century, and there are about hundreds of millions of such guns in the world, which are used in various regional conflicts and large-scale wars. The AK-47 is an assault rifle that is shorter and has a shorter range than World War II rifles, making it suitable for close-range combat. Using the principle of pneumatic automatic, the air guide tube is located above the barrel, and the bolt action is pushed by the piston, and the rotary locking bolt is locked.

The AK-47 fires 7.6239 mm 1943 Intermediate Power Cartridges, fed by a 30-round arc magazine, with a safe/fast handle on the right side of the receiver, and a choice of semi-automatic or fully automatic firing mode, with the pull handle on the right side of the receiver. The AK-47's bolt action is reliable, and its mechanical structure ensures that it continues to operate normally even when firing continuously or when foreign objects such as dust enter the gun. And it can maintain quite good performance in extremely harsh environments such as deserts, tropical rainforests, and severe cold, and its structure is simple, easy to decompose, easy to clean and maintain, and easy to operate.

The AK-47's main drawbacks are that the muzzle rises heavily when firing fully automatically, the rear seat of the bolt frame hits the bottom of the receiver, the design of the bolt ejection port makes it difficult to install Picatinny rails, and the design of the receiver cover results in a short aiming baseline. The design of the sight is not ideal, the recoil of the gun is large, and other defects, which greatly affect the shooting accuracy, it is difficult to shoot accurately beyond 300 meters, and the accuracy of continuous fire is even lower, in fact, it can only meet the requirements of close combat based on encounters.

The Germans were armed with Mauser firearms, and there were many models of Mauser rifles, but the basic structure was much the same, all of them were bolt-action direct-action rifles, and there was a fixed magazine for 5 rounds. Due to its reliable action and easy operation, the gun was welcomed by many countries and was one of the most widely used rifles in the world at the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century. General Patton, a famous American general during World War II, liked Mauser rifles in addition to semi-automatic rifles, and he often carried a Type 98 Mauser rifle on his command vehicle.

But if the Mauser rifle meets the AK gun family, it can only be a result in the end, and in the face of the AK gun family with strong firepower, the bolt-action Mauser rifle is not comparable. Although the AK gun clan has certain defects, so that the firing range is not very strong, but in the real battlefield, even the soldiers who use Mauser rifles need to face the firing distance is only about 100 meters, so far Zhang Cheng has not heard of any country soldiers like himself, just using ordinary bolt-action rifles can easily cover the firing range of more than 200 meters with firepower.

The reason why guns can be carried forward is inseparable from war. War was often the catalyst for the invention of guns and a breeding ground for the emergence of new weapons. World War II, as the most famous war in the history of human warfare, participated in the war with the largest number of countries and armies. Naturally, many new weapons and equipment will appear. The main reason why Zhang Cheng drew the design drawings of the AK rifle was because the Germans were also secretly developing automatic weapons.

The First World War was characterized by a static war of attrition, in which positional warfare was the main mode of warfare, so this resulted in an emphasis on the long range of rifles, and a battle for positions within 50 meters led to a large number of equipment for close-range rapid-fire weapons submachine guns. After the end of World War I, along with the progress of industrial science and technology, the military strategy and tactical theories of various countries also underwent tremendous changes. In several battles after World War I, such as the Russian Civil War and the Spanish Civil War, there were situations that did not occur in World War I. The combat distance of the infantry on both sides was greatly shortened compared with the period of World War I, and more than 70 percent of the battles were concentrated within a distance of 400 meters.

At this distance, the rifles that the countries were armed with at that time were not up to the task. Whether it is the German Mauser rifle, the Soviet Union's Mosin-Nagant rifle, or the British Lee Enfield rifle, the effective range is more than 600 meters, and the scale range is about 1000 meters. With such a strong lethality, it is obviously not necessary at 400 meters. At this distance, the power of conventional rifles is too great, far exceeding the requirements of real combat. At the same time, the rate of fire of the hand-loaded rifles equipped by various countries is not high, and good marksmen can only fire 10 to 12 rounds a minute. This rate of fire is clearly not capable of inflicting sufficient effective fire suppression on the enemy.

And the submachine gun, another type of equipment used by the infantry of various countries, cannot meet the needs of modern warfare. The effective firing range of submachine guns in World War II did not exceed 150 meters, and in actual combat it was less than 100 meters. Although at 100 meters, the submachine gun has a decent rate of fire and fire suppression. However, the ammunition used in the submachine gun is a pistol bullet, and the submachine gun cannot shoot purposefully at a distance of more than 150 meters.

150 meters for submachine guns, 500 meters for rifles, with a gap of 150 to 400 meters of fire in the middle. Infantry units in various countries generally make up for it with light machine guns, but light machine guns are less equipped among grassroots infantry, and their ammunition is also very powerful. At this distance, the power of light machine gun ammunition remained excessive. At the same time, submachine guns require a large number of pistol bullets. Rifle light machine guns also require a large amount of rifle ammunition. Grassroots infantry is armed with both submachine guns and rifles. This means that logisticians must prepare two types of ammunition at the same time.

If it is possible to achieve the unification of weapons and ammunition for infantry at the grassroots level. It is a great help to the military industrial system and logistics system of various countries. For these purposes. In the late 30s. Countries have launched research on assault weapons. They wanted to be able to produce a combination of rifle and submachine gun features. Able to replace existing rifles, submachine guns. And even a light machine gun as a weapon. But. Experiments proved that standard rifle ammunition of the early twentieth century was too powerful for automatic rifles. Automatic rifles have difficulty controlling accuracy when firing in bursts. Moreover, the weight is large, which is inconvenient for individual soldiers. Restricted by firearms technology and metal smelting technology at the time. Of course, there are reasons why the concept of assault rifles is not well understood. It does not meet the actual needs.

Speaking of automatic rifles. One has to mention the German Hugo Schmeiser. Born in Sur, Thuringia, Germany, Hugo Schmeiser came from a family of weapons designers. His family owned a gunsmithing company founded in 1841. Famous before Mauser. Specialized in the production of "Dreisai firing guns" for the Prussian army. Influenced by the family. At a very young age, Schmeiser began to follow his brother in the gun shop. Intimate knowledge of firearms of various calibers.

The famous Bergmann P181 submachine gun was fired by Hugo Schmeiser. Later on the basis of the Bergman "P181 type. Hugo Schmeiser designed the P28 submachine gun. After the outbreak of World War II. Schmeiser's name began to be valued by the German military. The name of Schmeiser also began to circulate among the Allies. The soldiers even referred to one of the most powerful submachine guns that the Germans were equipped with as "Schmeiser". But. The submachine gun, officially known as the "P40", simply adopted a magazine designed by Schmysser. The whole gun was designed by another firearms designer. Schmeiser's design for the German army is another classic gun,,, TG-44 assault rifle.

After receiving the actual combat acceptance report, Schmeiser asked for mass production with minor changes to the design, because the gun used ammunition different from the submachine gun and was considered the world's first true assault rifle. The excellent performance of the P44 was well received by the German front-line troops, and Hitler finally noticed this infantry weapon and recognized its role, while granting the gun "production priority". In order to show the importance attached to the P44, Hitler personally renamed it the "Type 44 Assault Rifle", the TG-44.

After the end of World War II, U.S. forces occupied Sur, and 61-year-old Hugo Schmeiser and his brother were taken under Allied control but later released. Four months later, the Soviet Red Army took over the control of Sur from the American Army, and Schmeiser was again "invited" to the army. This time he was not released. After hearing a report from intelligence officers on the performance of the TG-44 assault rifle, Stalin decided that the rifle was simple and durable, and that it was suitable for Soviet soldiers, so he ordered Schmeiser and his design team to be brought back to China to "design better infantry light weapons for the Soviet Red Army." ”

In October 1946, Schmeiser and 15 other German gunsmiths were placed in Izhevsk, south of the Ural Mountains. The Soviet military set up the "58th Special Design Institute" specifically for them, and Schmeiser was appointed as one of the five designers of the institute. Rumor has it that Kalashnikov's AK-47 assault rifle was actually designed with the help of Schmysser. Kalashnikov himself allegedly admitted in 2009 that Schmyser "helped" him in designing the AK-47. However, it is impossible to confirm the fact that the AK-47 assault rifle is very similar to the TG-44 assault rifle in terms of design and some components.

The Germans really developed the TG-44 assault rifle after 1943, and now it is only 1938, if Zhang Cheng mass-produced this gun and sold it to Germany, perhaps the German army would reverse the German army's disadvantage in the face of automatic weapons from the United States and the Soviet Union. The United States and Britain acquiesced in Japan's invasion of China and controlled China's purchase of weapons, Zhang Cheng had a vague ambition in his heart, and he took out this design drawing and sold weapons to Germany, not out of optimism about Germany, but out of the need for Germany to strengthen the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers, and to be able to more effectively contain the combat effectiveness of the Allies in the upcoming outbreak of World War II.

Hitler was not only a hero, he was also a madman who tried to control the whole world, with this Hitler who dared to challenge the world's few powers at the same time, Zhang Chengcheng could have the time and opportunity to complete the grand plan in his heart. "Chen Guangcai, what do you think about taking this design drawing to the United States for production," Chen Guangcai was already immersed in the design drawing, but Zhang Cheng had to say something to interrupt Chen Guangcai's joy.

Chen Guangcai, who was interrupted, did not express his anger, but quickly adjusted his mentality, and replied after a slight groan, "Brigade Commander Zhang, if it is produced in the United States, it will be difficult for us to obtain orders from the military with our energy. ”

Chen Guangcai's words also won Zhang Cheng's approval, in fact, Zhang Cheng did not want to equip the US army, and his own troops could be satisfied by domestic production. If it weren't for Hitler's stubbornness, perhaps the TG-44 assault rifle would have been equipped with German soldiers earlier. Because Hitler was obsessed with powerful weapons such as firepower and did not pay attention to firepower compared to submachine guns, and the range and accuracy were not comparable to Mauser's 98K semi-automatic rifles, the TG-44 was not reused in the German army, and when the German army began to pay attention to the TG-44, it was already the setting of the Reich.

In the Soviet-German battlefield in early 1944, the German army used these cutting-edge semi-automatic weapons with G-34/42 machine guns to form a very powerful blocking fire against the Soviet army, and since then the German army has far surpassed the Soviet army in the density of automatic/semi-automatic weapons in the effective range of the rifle, but the German army used a large number of German Walter 43 semi-automatic rifles at that time.

The use of semi-automatic weapons on the Western Front made the German military leadership begin to pay attention to assault rifles, and when the Allies attacked Berlin, almost all the German soldiers who resisted in Berlin were equipped with TG-44 assault rifles. The German soldiers armed with a large number of assault rifles inflicted great casualties on the Allies, but unfortunately, at this time, it was close to the end of the empire, and even if the German army now had a strong individual weapon in its hands, it was powerless.

Zhang Cheng can improve a lot of weapon design, but now the steelmaking technology is too backward and cannot meet the requirements.
