The captain of the guard is on the left, and the "Cui Yi" is on the right, and the "Cui Yi" is really incommensurate with his body and only calling weapons, and the commander-in-chief feels that it is necessary to standardize the image of the revolutionary soldiers.

"Tian Jinfu, where is there so much nonsense? Find a few teacups and pour the wine! After eating, we will go to visit Xiong Weigen and see what our revolutionary comrades from the Restoration Society are doing in Wuhan. ”

Zhao Bei scolded twice, and finally made the captain of the guard shut up.

At this time, Liu Qingen had already opened the cloth bag and put it on the table.

"Is this a gun?" Zhao Bei's attention finally shifted his direction, picking up the pile of parts on the table and studying it carefully.

"Now I will make a high-pole sample gun, one is testing the gun at the shooting range, this one I will stay with me, see if I can improve it, even the gun is not a rifle after all, do not pay attention to the shè process, the key is the simpler the better, only in this way can the cost be reduced."

Liu Qingen said a few words, took the spare companion and assembled it, and after a while, a peculiar-looking short gun appeared in front of everyone.

"What kind of gun is this?" Jiang Fangzhen had never seen this kind of gun, so it was a little strange.

"Submachine gun."

Tian Jinfu poked his head over and muttered. He gestured with a few pairs of chopsticks in his hand, and said, "Designed by the commander-in-chief." ”

"Submachine guns? Good name. ”

Jiang Fangzhen took the gun, touched it, pulled the bolt with a "bang", looked at the bullet hole on the side, and asked, "Is this gun a pistol bullet?" ”

Zhao, Qiang handed over the Naxing arc-shaped magazine in his hand, and said that Ren "used the bullet of the Mauser Youlai pistol, with a caliber of 7.63 mm." In addition, I didn't design this gun ear, I just drew a shell, and the internal parts and structure were all designed by Liu Supervisor, who is the inventor of the real submachine gun! ”

"Where, if it weren't for the sketches drawn by the commander-in-chief, I really couldn't figure out this kind of submachine gun. In fact, the gun itself is nothing, the structure, the principle and the emerging automatic pistol in Europe are not much different, and compared to the pistol, this gun is easier to manufacture, in fact, I also painted the scoop according to the gourd, according to the foreign pistol and automatic rifle to figure out, but I haven't tried the gun yet, and I don't know if it's easy to use or not. This gun has the advantage of being powerful and not complicated in structure. And due to the short barrel. It is convenient to process, now there is no machine to take advantage of, if there is a machine to take advantage of, this gun can be built faster than a rifle, if this gun is successfully manufactured, we Chinese can be regarded as walking in front of the powerful country. ”

Liu Qingen was modest on the side and did not dare to be greedy. But the look on his face was quite excited.

In fact, this submachine gun is a sketch drawn by Zhao Bei according to his memory, and the appearance imitates the famous submachine gun Yiguan in the First World War, Qiandan is just like he "designed" a semi-automatic pistol and a Fiat biplane fighter, he just drew a shell, as for the internal structure of the rifle, he really can't draw it.

Therefore, strictly speaking, such a submachine gun was indeed designed by Liu Qingen, and Zhao Bei's exploits only gave him a new idea. That's all.

Zhao Bei's idea of designing a submachine gun was before the Battle of Zhengchuan, in view of the lack of rifles, the Republican Army and the Revolutionary Squad urgently needed a cheap weapon that was easy to manufacture in large quantities, "The Mantianbei rifle only met part of the needs of the troops, and if you want to make full use of the resources of the arsenal, you must make another weapon with more powerful firepower and uncomplicated structure, so the submachine gun appeared in the commander-in-chief's weapon renewal plan."

Zhao Bei drew a sketch based on his memory, and considering the processing capacity, he chose the more towering submachine gun Boron, but because the structure of the original gun's stable was more complicated. It was inconvenient to reload, so he switched to a simpler curved magazine, mounted on the side of the gun, and set the capacity to thirty rounds.

Before leading the army into Sichuan, Zhao Bei gave Fei Qingen the history of the design sketch, and had necessary discussions with him to open up ideas.

Originally, the concept of a submachine gun appeared in the First World War, and now no one has thought about this weapon, therefore, the design of this gun is completely from scratch, unlike the creation of semi-automatic pistols, which have no object to refer to.

Fortunately, Liu Qingen's foundation is not bad, he studied at Tokyo Imperial University, and he studied ordnance manufacturing, and because some time ago he "designed" the kind of semi-automatic pistol in order to make the general ear command. He specially sent people to purchase different models of European semi-automatic pistols for research. The structure and principle of this automatic weapon are already well understood, and then Zhao Bei, a half-tone military fan, will give you some guidance, so the design of this submachine gun is not so difficult.

However, the sample gun does not wait for the hand to go into battle, this is an automatic weapon after all. -8.%% is a test for the industrial base.

"There is nothing difficult about making this gun?" Zhao Bei asked

"The rest is good to say, but this magazine is a little difficult to make, we don't have a suitable machine now, a few magazines of these two sample guns are knocked out by mechanics with hammers, in order to reduce the difficulty, this magazine is appropriately shortened, and it can only be loaded with twenty pieces. There are also bullets that are a problem, although pistol bullets are easy to import, and the price is much lower, but if they are imported in large quantities. That's not a question of whether the finances of a small army can afford it, I mean, since we have a good relationship with the German Chamber of Commerce now, it is better to take the opportunity to import some machines from Germany and specialize in making Mauser pistol cartridges, so that we can do it. It can reduce the cost and no longer rely on people's noses, and the bullet can be used on both submachine guns and pistols, which can reduce the logistical burden."

Liu Qingen said as he instructed Jiang Fangzhen to load the magazine.

Jiang Fangzhen put the submachine gun up, slammed it on the roof and pulled the trigger, because the magazine was not loaded. Only a "pop" sound of bolt impact could be heard.

"I just don't know how effective it will be. And this shè journey is inevitably closer, only two hundred meters. Far inferior to a rifle, how can this ruler be as simple as "starry sky?" With a knock, only a gauge with a hole and a notched sight, Jiang Fangzhen shook it gently, "Obviously, I don't have much confidence in this gun, after all, I haven't heard of a military powerhouse using a similar firearm in this era."

"The ruler is simple, but the processing is easy, in fact, this submachine gun does not have to pursue the accuracy of shè hits, the key is this firepower, as long as the firepower is strong, this gun is good "Cleaning trenches, street fighting is very good, if you don't believe it, let's make a bet." ”

Zhao Bei took the submachine gun, pulled the bolt with a smile, and looked at Jiang Fangzhen.

Jiang Fangzhen said lightly: "I don't dare to respond to the gambling contract of the chief lice order, if you talk about vision." I'm afraid that the whole of China can't find a few inches that are far-reaching than the commander-in-chief, but then again, this submachine gun is indeed too close, if you fight in the field, you still have to rely on machine guns, the commander-in-chief said last time, Liu supervised the development of a light machine gun. I wonder how it went? Also, that kind of "infantry artillery, how is it going?" ”

The last few sentences are asking Liu Qingen.

Seeing that the commander-in-chief also looked over, Liu Qingen said: "The infantry artillery is undergoing final assembly. It will take a few more days to complete. As for the light machine gun, the general commander is desperate to make a light machine gun with reference to the Italian Seyenghotti automatic gun, but in terms of the current machinery and equipment of the Hanyang factory. It is difficult to guarantee quality in a short period of time. So I later sent someone to Pingdong, walked around, and bought two Maitson eight-milli machine guns from the Guangdong Gun and Ammunition Factory, this kind of machine gun was successfully copied by the Guangdong Factory last year, I heard that Xìng can be good, I mean, rather than designing it yourself, it is better to copy it directly. The new German machine is also almost in Wuhan. I can't guarantee anything else, but the imitation of this Maitson machine gun should not be a problem, and then change the caliber, and use the same pointed bullets as the new rifle in the future, this logistics will be easier. ”

"Oh? This Maitsen machine gun is also a light machine gun?.

Zhao Bei was a little surprised, not because of Liu Qingen's own opinion, but because of the fact that the arsenal in Guangdong was able to imitate machine guns.

According to the Commander-in-Chief, this Poison Terga machine gun is a light machine gun, it is very light, and the barrel is equipped with a bipod, the magazine feeds the ammunition, the cāo only needs one soldier, the blood can be equipped with a tripod, and it can also be used as a heavy machine gun if necessary. This machine gun was developed by the Danes six years ago and later equipped with the Danish army, although this machine gun is not very well-known. The machine gun did not have a small grip, and the butt was not straight enough, which was far from what the commander had originally requested. But on the whole, the xìng can still be very good, in fact, the magazine of our submachine gun is a reference to Maitson's magazine. ”

After listening to Liu Qingen's resolution of the lawsuit, Zhao Bei suddenly realized that he had always thought that the light machine gun was valued by the military powerhouses after the First World War, but now it seems that at least the Danes are far more far-sighted than those Jizhou powers, and China's military industry has also been staring at the world's advanced level, but it is a pity that the national strength is weak, the officialdom is dark, and finally it is getting farther and farther away from the world's advanced water.

"How does this Guangdong gun and ammunition factory compare to our Hanyang factory?" Zhao Bei asked.

Liu Qingen was stunned, and then understood what Zhao Bei meant, so he said: "Although it can't be compared to the people, but since the merger of the east and west factories two years ago to form a new factory, this Guangdong factory can also be regarded as a large-scale military industry, I sent to buy machine guns back and said that now the Guangdong factory can make more than 400 rifles per month, more than 200,000 bullets of all kinds, but it is much stronger than the military workshop in Chengdu, but then again, the atmosphere in Guangdong is Jingqi, and skilled workers are much easier to find than Sichuan, and Guangdong is close to the coast, and the port is also early, and the trade is prosperous, Its level of affluence is not comparable to that of Sichuan, which is supported only by well salt. Since the rise of the revolutionary army, Zhang Renjun, the governor of Liangguang, has been urging the Guangdong factory to start work to make guns, and I heard that he also allocated his money to buy gunboats from foreigners. ”

"Zhang Renjun? It's just an old martial arts. He won't stay long in Guangdong. Now the League and the Liberation Association are all staring at the fat meat in Guangdong. Although Yuan Shikai has now appointed Zhang Renjun as the governor of the Guangdong Army, he has been unconvinced by the League and the Guangfu Society, and is turning over Zhang Renjun's old accounts in the newspapers, which is the "King of Guangdong." Ah, I don't know who will do it. ”

Zhao Bei put down the submachine gun and gathered his mind. walked to Zhuo Bian and pointed to the table full of dishes, beckoning everyone to take the table.

"Fortunately, it's hot now, and I'm not afraid that the food will be cold, so let's drink with the food" But this Russian vodka is too strong, and everyone can drink a small glass. Wait until you are full of food and drink. Let's go to the shooting range and see what the xìng of submachine guns and light machine guns can do. Speaking of which, there is really a rì who has never drunk alcohol and has not been addicted to guns. Minister, if you do a good job with this submachine gun, I will give your niece a note. I took her to school with a female teacher through the back door. ”

Liu Qingen put away the submachine gun and walked back to the table. shook his head and said seriously: "Don't approve the strips, my niece, like her father, is also stubborn, she said that if she wants to take the exam, she will definitely go to the exam, and if she can't pass the exam, she won't ask someone to approve the strip."

I received the commander-in-chief's wish for Cui Yi, but this article is still exempt. ”

"Cuiyi, Cuiweiyi, good name."

Jiang Fang praised it, smiled and turned his head to look at the commander-in-chief.

The chief mother Ling picked up the wine glass and toasted the concubine. Then he took a bite, and his spirit was quiet and serious, and there was no frivolity, but there were waves in his heart.

"Good fellows. Have you seen all this thoughts? ,, But then again, the Cui Yi girl is certainly well-behaved and cute, but Nian Shao is too young, only fifteen years old, no wonder she hasn't developed yet, her figure is tall, but it's a pity that she didn't see the front, Tian Jinfu saw it, but in his eyes, she was a "beauty." It's not good to see if you meet next time, you must take a good look at it and see what kind of style this "emerald and beautiful" is. ”
