Chapter 374: Unified Officers with Guns!

If we talk about the weapons tested on the first day, the special forces feel delighted. Then the weapons tested the next day shocked the members of the Saber Special Combat Team. On the other hand, He Zhengdao still felt that these weapons were very ordinary.

It's just that these weapons are undoubtedly very advanced in the Republic of China. Even compared with the light weapons of other countries, it is relatively advanced. For the current Eighth Route Army, it is a good weapon that is difficult to buy with money.

Although the central government and the headquarters have paid attention to the affairs of the arsenal. But they didn't pay much attention to the achievements made in the research and development of similar weapons. Because they all know that He Zhengdao knows more about this mess than them.

According to He Zhengdao, a weapon still needs to go through a series of tests from development to finalization. If the inspection is passed, the trial-produced weapons can be finalized and produced, and finally distributed to various units for use.

At least at present, all the main divisions of the Eighth Route Army are equipped with Chinese independent submachine guns that have begun mass production. For this submachine gun, the feedback from the main forces is very high, and it is very popular with the officers and soldiers of the main forces.

It's a pity that the production of steel has not been able to make a big breakthrough, and at present, this submachine gun is only used by the reconnaissance units of the main divisions. Ordinary officers and soldiers still can't be distributed.

But even so, the commanders and fighters of all units still felt happy. After all, this is the first submachine gun that can be mass-produced by their Eighth Route Army. And the problem of the current limited supply of bullets has also been alleviated to a certain extent.

At present, the weapons that the special combat personnel are experimenting with will also be given priority to the special combat personnel in the future. Seeing the experimental effect of this weapon, the special combat team members were shocked, but they were also very happy.

Because, with this weapon, they don't have to worry about not being able to gnaw on the tank armored vehicle of the little devil in the future. On the contrary, in their opinion, when the armored detachment of the little devils encounters them in the future, it is estimated that they will be ready for the annihilation of the whole army.

Bazooka, a new weapon that should be unique for now. For He Zhengdao, the reason for its design is also to increase the counterattack ability of the troops against the Japanese armored forces in the future.

If you want to march into the northeast or hold Suiyuan, armored forces are a difficult problem in front of the independent column. With the ammunition research and development team, a breakthrough has been made in the development of ******, and this strange-shaped weapon has also been successfully developed.

Zhu Fei, who had personally experimented with it, was very happy and said: "Captain, this big horn is very powerful!" Such thick armor can penetrate, and if we encounter the tanks and armored vehicles of the little devils in the back, we will have countermeasures. ”

Big trumpet, that's an apt description. But He Zhengdao also knows that the short range of the bazooka is also a shortcoming. After all, when the Japanese tank and armored forces advanced, they would send infantry to fight together.

But no matter what, with such a weapon, the Eighth Route Army would not send someone to rush with an explosive bag every time it encountered the little devil's tank and armored vehicle. Hiding in the trenches and attacking will also make the little devil tank scared.

Don't be too happy, as you all know, the Japanese armored forces all have infantry to fight together. Such a weapon, when attacking, also needs to be used with caution. After all, it also takes time to launch rockets. ’

Hearing He Zhengdao say this, the special combat team members thought about it, and it was indeed the case. But for them, with such a weapon, they will not have to run away in the face of the little devil's tank armored vehicles in the future.

After inspecting this weapon, He Zhengdao also said in a timely manner: "Director Qin, in the next period of time, you will produce a thousand pieces of this weapon first." At that time, I will arrange for the troops of the column to receive them and conduct actual combat tests.

Rockets, you have a little more stockpiling. If we want to attack the Northeast in the future, we will definitely have to deal with the tanks and armored vehicles of the little devils. In the absence of anti-aircraft guns, this weapon is undoubtedly an armor-piercing weapon. ”

'Yes, rest assured, Commander, I will arrange for the arsenal to prioritize the production of this weapon. The problem with the cannonballs has been solved, and the speed of the shells that accompany this weapon will be further increased. ’

'Well, thank you! I'll prepare a batch of weapons for me this time. In the evening, I brought all these weapons back. In a few days, when I go to Yan'an and Xi'an, I will ask the central government for credit for you. ’

'Thank you, Commander! ’

Developing a weapon doesn't mean they're done. In the absence of a formal designation of weapons, they are not rewarded by their superiors. There are political and, of course, economic rewards.

The managers of the arsenal need to be rewarded politically. The experts of the research and development group hope to be financially rewarded. With money, they can better develop new projects!

By the time they left the arsenal, the Sabre Special Operations Team had already completed their outfit. The submachine guns and rifles were all replaced with the new Type 5 or 6 submachine guns, even if the snipers also got their own standard sniper rifles.

Although He Zhengdao also thought about changing the sniper rifle with a Type 5 or 6 rifle, after some experiments, it was found that the range also did not meet the requirements of a sniper rifle. On the contrary, the use of Soviet water rifles is more suitable for special combat teams.

In these two offensive battles, the independent column also captured a lot of this kind of Mosin-Nagant rifles, which were called 'water beads' by Chinese officers and soldiers. The sniper rifle converted from this rifle has very good range and accuracy.

Of course, in He Zhengdao's view, the biggest advantage of this sniper rifle is that the bullet can be universal. There is another reason, that is, in this era, the 'love for the Soviet Union' plot existed in the Eighth Route Army.

In any case, the arsenal, which has also made a breakthrough in optical scopes, has also modified a lot of sniper rifles with this rifle with good performance. When He Zhengdao left this time, he also took 300 sniper rifles with him.

When he returned to Yulin, He Zhengdao asked the saber special combat team to seize the time of the past few days to familiarize themselves with the weapons that had been replaced. On the bullets, when He Zhengdao left, he also prepared a lot of training bullets for them.

As far as the special combat personnel are concerned, this is the standard equipment for their future operations, and it is natural that they must be handy. And this is the first time that the Saber Special Combat Team has completed all the equipment of self-produced weapons.

Even after coming out of the arsenal this time, He Zhengdao also equipped the special combat team with steel helmets and goggles and exclusive weapon straps. After a change of outfits, the special operations team finally looked different from the rest of the troops.

And this time, He Zhengdao also asked the quilt factory to design a gray-green camouflage uniform for the saber. Although the effect of printing and dyeing may not be as good as that of later generations. But after a change of outfit, the saber looks more or less like a special forces.

He Zhengdao, who returned to the headquarters, did not forget to talk to Xiao Jinguang about the next work arrangements. Xiao Jinguang also knew that He Zhengdao was going to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army to inspect and guide the preparation and formation of the iron and steel plant.

After chatting about something, He Zhengdao also smiled and said: "Political commissar, this is a pistol that has just been finalized and produced by the arsenal, and it will be distributed to the divisional, brigade and regimental officers of our column first." If you have time, you can also go to the shooting range to familiarize yourself. ”

Looking at the holster and pistol handed over by He Zhengdao, Xiao Jinguang, who also likes to use box guns, also feels that this pistol is indeed a little small. But he was equally happy to see the black pistol and the five-pointed star on the gun.

smiled and said, "Okay! This gun looks very small, and it is indeed very convenient to carry around! ”

'Yes! At present, I plan to take this pistol to the Central Committee to the chairman and the commander-in-chief to show it to the officers of our troops. Now many of our officers are either not equipped with guns, or they are equipped with too many types of pistols.

With this pistol, it can also be regarded as a symbol of the status of an officer. Most importantly, this pistol is good for officers. It's easy to carry and powerful. If you really encounter an unexpected situation, you also have a certain ability to defend yourself and fight back. ’

'Good! I agree! I'm sure those leaders of the Central Committee will also like this pistol! ’

At present, the leaders of the Eighth Route Army use guns, and those who can use Browning pistols are mostly Mauser guns. Compared to the size of the Mauser pistol, this pistol is undoubtedly more suitable for officers.

As for the Mauser pistol, He Zhengdao felt that it should be more appropriate to be equipped with a gun as a guard. And such a pistol can also be a kind of identity embodiment of an officer in the future. can match this pistol, at least a regimental officer.

If there is more production in the future, it is possible to distribute it slowly. But no matter what, in He Zhengdao's view, it is also very necessary to unify the guns and numbers of the officers of the Eighth Route Army.

The regularization and unification of the armed forces is also something He Zhengdao has always hoped to achieve. Nowadays, it is undoubtedly impossible to let the Eighth Route Army change its clothes. However, it is still possible to let officers at and above the regimental level use standard pistols in a unified manner.

After inspecting the arsenal, He Zhengdao, after handling some of the things at hand, and arranging for the reconnaissance brigade to dispatch personnel to the secret training camp to familiarize themselves with weapons such as bazookas, Chen Siya and the reporters of the news agency also returned.

In addition to the current two, reporters who have already gone to Wuyuan and other places to interview, Chen Siya and them can only go as far as Shenmu and other places. However, this interview trip to Yulin also made the reporters of the news agency feel the rapid changes in the Yulin base area.

Compared with other places, there are significantly more small factories in Yulin. In addition, the business on the streets of the town seems to be much more prosperous than in other places. The people's evaluation of the Yulin Border District Government is also very satisfied.

The most rare thing is that the military-civilian joint defense policy implemented by the Yulin Border District Government left a deep impression on the reporters this time. If it weren't for the fact that the Department of Political Affairs had sent personnel to accompany them, they would not have been able to cover the countryside below.

Perhaps it is this kind of management and education that is different from other base areas that has led to the transformation of Yulin Base Area today. This trip to Yulin, many reporters feel that they have benefited a lot! (To be continued.) )
