The establishment of military factories, in China in this era, is far easier to find workers than other factories, for no other reason, the Westernization Movement, is the machine movement, but more, it is for the strengthening of the country and the army, with the signing of the Southeast Mutual Insurance, the governors of various places have more rights, and they have also supported the construction of the military industry, not necessarily like the Jiangnan Machinery Bureau and the Beiyang Machinery Bureau, with a relatively strong military production capacity, but some tinkering is still possible, even if it is a remote Taiyuan, the Taiyuan Machinery Bureau has been establishedSuch sporadic factories have trained a large number of workers.

In the previous recruitment for the whole country, the focus is on these military factories, in addition to specialized technicians, the military factory is the most complete, whether it is to make explosives, or to make some other chemicals, there is considerable experience, the most important is fitter and lathe workers, there is no military factory so complete, these workers are more widely used, easier to get involved in production.

The late Qing Dynasty was turbulent, the central government had no money, especially the Xinchou Treaty in 1900, which completely knocked out the last bit of confidence of the Qing Dynasty.

In this case, it shows the benefits of file registration, not necessarily everyone fills in according to the resume, but if the background and resume are determined, the salary can be increased on a certain course, and the workers of this era rarely conceal it, even if it is for more than one yuan a month, the workers will register as much as possible.

To do the work in the front, Yang Yuanzhao asked Liu Shu to screen out the workers who had experience in the arsenal, except for some specific positions and workers who needed to be retained, and the rest were transferred to the new arsenal.

The things purchased from Germany, in addition to a variety of complete sets of equipment, the largest number, is the machine tool, which is actually the most machine equipment in the factory in this era, from a single, specific machine tool manufactured for a certain product, the rest are general-purpose machine tools.

Machine tools in this era, or ordinary machine tools, whether it is a boring machine, or a drilling machine, or a multi-functional machine tool, its own structure, has not changed much, the difference is always the control and tools, in fact, before the emergence of CNC machine tools, what three axes and four axes, what machining center is a concept, can not be realized at all, the improvement of machine tool performance, almost all come from the tool, and the improvement of design is very little.

In this era, and even in the future of the 21st century, the improvement of tools has gone through several different stages, the beginning is alloy steel, with harder, and sharper tools, instead of the original tools, to achieve a substantial increase in the application of machine tools.

This hardness, on behalf of whether this can process a certain material, is the mainstream of the initial development stage of machine tools, gradually, with the development of machine tools, people gradually found that the gradual increase in hardness, may be able to process more materials, but can not bring a significant increase in overall efficiency, after systematic research, high-speed steel began to appear in the machine tool tools, the speed of high-speed steel, in general, is the first generation of alloy steel between three to five times. At present, the most advanced machine tools in the whole world are still high-speed steel, and even the field of high-speed steel has not yet developed to the extreme.

Yang Yuanzhao for the present, a large number of second-hand machine tools imported from Germany, the tools provided are powder smelting tools, even if it is a fine product of civilian products, but it is also the technology of the 21st century, whether it is hardness, or speed, it is stronger than the mainstream steel of this era.

High-speed steel is the second extreme of the development of machine tool tools, this era, the stage of rapid change, in just ten years, the development of this field, almost with each passing day, but Yang Yuanzhao took out, but it is a new steel for powder smelting.

Powder smelting, the 20th century, the material on the heavy dà breakthrough, from the very beginning, attracted the attention of the whole world, Yang Yuanzhao carried this set of knives, is one of the boutique, with the help of the team, to buy these, I didn't expect that in this era, but than the day before yesterday, more can be put in use.

After a slight modification, with the same form, after replacing the tools of these machine tools, suddenly, the machine tools burst out with incredible power, and the speed has been unimaginably improved compared with before.

In a huge shed, recently, the construction task of the engineering team is too big, so there is no steel structure or anything like that, just a temporary shed, most of the machine tools purchased from Germany, are placed here, Yang Yuanzhao in addition to the adjustment of the tools of the machine tool, but also according to the experience of the workers, their mechanism has been adjusted to a certain extent.

It can be said unceremoniously that the largest number of machine tools in China is still here, in addition to most of the multi-functional machine tools and special machine tools, there are even some woodworking machine tools.

In contrast to versatility, it is easier to use the Kandai machine tool in addition to the multi-function machine that has just been used for machining. Woodworking machine tool is a special machine tool, more work, is placed on the woodworking machine, the emergence of high-speed and high-strength powder smelting blades, in a sense, the overall processing of the improvement is unimaginable.

Now, in this big shed, there is more assembly, and there are some less important production, which looks very large, but it is similar to a processing workshop.

The gunsmith, even in foreign countries, in a few decades ago, was a workshop type, although it is much better now, but it is also a processing workshop, stamping or something, that is a few decades later, now, are produced Mao Pei, in Tongguò various machine tools, after processing and molding, assembled, in another shed, is an assembly workshop, Yang Yuanzhao even specially produced a batch of parts, for them to assemble, with now, Baotou's processing capacity, the barrel is no way, There is no way to rifle, there is no way to bolt, the rest can be produced by guò machine tools, and the quality of the production is not low, after the perfect unification of weights and measures, especially after the tools of the 21st century, vernier calipers and spiral micrometers, The accuracy can reach 0.01 mm, which is enough for ordinary firearms, and even in quite a few cases, only vernier calipers and spiral micrometers are used, and only when it is unique or important, will this difficult precision tool be used.

Baotou's military industry, in the midst of such difficulties, started slowly, and various systems are gradually improving.

A few days later, the military production has not been completely launched, in the all-in-one machine, the new daily task has been refreshed, or the F-level task, the reward of the task is 5 points, the construction of a military factory, requires 5 cannons per day, 500 rifles per day, and 1200 kg of explosives.

Sure enough, it came with his construction progress, and Yang Yuanzhao has been established after several times of practice, in a sense, this daily task is to promote the construction of his industrial zone.

To say, this condition is not big, 500 rifles, even without the help of the all-in-one machine, he provides drilling, milling and boring machines, etc., can also complete the barrel of the barrel, high-speed turning knives, by no means a joke, the hardness is much higher than this era, under the strong power of the steam engine, the stability is first-class, to drill out of a barrel, than directly with the iron sheet to wrap faster, as for the quality, it is also much stronger, one-time molding, drilled out of the barrel, and directly with the iron sheet thin, this strength above, There are big differences, the performance is even better, the use is more extensive, the only thing that has some doubts is steel.

However, Yang Yuanzhao tried it, it is okay to directly use the all-in-one machine to provide suitable steel, but it is not possible to directly provide the barrel, I am afraid this is also to take care of, now Baotou, there is no steel factory supporting military factories at all, even ordinary steel, all need to be imported, not to mention special steel.

Guns are relatively easy to solve, as for explosives, ammonium nitrate can also be called explosives, toluene needs to be in the real room, further research on the petrochemical industry, after cracking, it can be obtained, which takes a while, fortunately, above the international market, there are also toluene sales, big deal, before there is no way to produce, first purchase.

Toluene is a chemical raw material, mainly for the production of TNT, there are also some other uses, compared to nitric acid, toluene control is a little more difficult, so, the major countries for toluene in this aspect, the strength of the control is not very large, more just monitoring, Yang Yuanzhao and Germany, with the United States, there are many aspects of cooperation, a one-time import of 2000 tons of toluene, did not cause some waves, these, important chemical raw materials, on the guò waterway, directly transported to the northwest,

Compared with explosives and rifles, the most difficult thing is still artillery, with an all-in-one machine to provide cannon steel, as well as large boring machines and drilling machines, a certain kind of Cheng dù, the northwest also has the ability to produce cannons, but cannons, as the king of the army, to produce, by no means as easy as imagined.

China, the history of imitating all kinds of firearms, from a few decades ago, the Westernization movement has just begun, but the artillery has not been much development, far away in the Ming Dynasty's red-coated cannons, only in 1900 in the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance, artillery has played a very important role in it, the rise of the Westernization Movement of the various machine qì bureaus, manufacturing bureaus, can produce shells, can produce guns, and can even produce ammunition, but the production of cannons, has always been blank.
