Chapter 329: The Ultimate Weapon
But after thinking about it again, Yue Weihan was relieved.
Since Pi Xiaocheng has already made the bazooka, it would be too unreasonable not to use it, not to mention anything else, at least after the 39th Group Army is equipped with the bazooka, there is no need to worry about the tanks of the little devils, as for how much the Americans and Lao Maozi will pay for this, Yue Weihan is too lazy to care.
However, one thing is certain: even if the field divisions of the Chinese army were equipped with a large number of rocket launchers, it would not have been possible to win the Pacific War, let alone go north to overthrow the Soviet Union, for the simple reason that the industrial scale of the small army could still have an advantage over China, and if it was compared with the Soviet Union and the United States, it would be too far behind.
When Yue Weihan made up his mind, Chi Chengfeng and the others also recovered from the shock.
"His grandma, I really didn't see it, this thing is really so powerful!"
"Donkey said, this thing is much more powerful than the battle defense gun, but the range is shorter!"
"Boss, now our 39th Group Army doesn't have to be afraid of the chariot of the little devil!"
Chi Chengfeng, Niu Dagen, Cao Xinglong and others were all excited, and Liu Yi asked Pi Xiaocheng with great eagerness: "Mr. Pi, is it difficult to manufacture this individual portable anti-tank cannon?" Can it be mass-produced? How long is the production cycle? Is maintenance and repair difficult? ”
"Uh......" Pi Xiaocheng was stupid when Liu Yi asked several questions in a row.
After a long time, Pi Xiaocheng came back to his senses and replied: "Counselor, the production process of this individual portable anti-tank cannon is very simple, of course, it can be produced in batches, and the production line can be established in a short time, I think there should be no problem with a monthly output of 100 barrels and 1,000 shells, as for maintenance and repair, it is not a problem at all." ”
"Great." Liu Yi rarely clapped his hands and said, "Get on the production line immediately, it's decided!" ”
Since becoming Yue Weihan's chief of staff, Liu Yi really hasn't made a decision, and today is an exception, but Yue Weihan doesn't care at all, he can completely understand Liu Yi's mood at this time, because for [***] soldiers, the combat effectiveness of the devil soldiers is not a problem at all, the problem is Xiao Yueben's planes and tanks!
Let's not talk about the little devil's plane, it's definitely a nightmare for [***] soldiers.
As for the little devil's tank, although the skin is thin and the stuffing is big, but for the general lack of anti-armor weapons [***], it is also a dream-like existence, although [***] soldiers are generally not afraid of death, often on the battlefield with explosives bags and choose to die with the tank, but in terms of actual combat effect, this suicidal blasting method is not advisable.
Now with the man-portable anti-tank artillery, it is at least much easier to deal with the tanks of the Japanese army.
"Just do as the chief of staff says." Yue Weihan smiled and said, "But the name of the man-portable anti-tank cannon is too long and difficult to remember, I think the principle of this thing is similar to a rocket, so let's just call it a bazooka." ”
"Okay." Pi Xiaocheng said, "It's called a bazooka, and I'll let people set up a production line when I turn around." ”
Yue Weihan nodded, and suddenly said, "Mr. Pi, I have a few ideas, let's go back and talk about it." ”
Pi Xiaocheng's unexpected invention triggered Yue Weihan's inspiration, and now the Taihang Arsenal has been preliminarily completed, and the production lines of various weapons can be launched quickly, although it is not possible to create advanced weapons such as airplanes, tanks, heavy artillery, etc., but it is more than enough to improve existing weapons and invent several powerful native equipment.
As a traverser, the last thing Yue Weihan lacks is such creativity!
Yue Weihan already had several preliminary ideas to use to strengthen the infantry firepower.
First of all, the squad uses light machine guns, Yue Weihan plans to equip each infantry squad of the Baoshan Division with a light machine gun, and the rest of the divisions with each platoon with a light machine gun.
Yue Weihan still likes the Czech light machine gun, but it still needs to be improved, the ammunition supply method should be changed to the side feed, the top is equipped with sights, and the 20-round magazine should be changed to a 200-round metal bullet chain, so as to ensure the accuracy of shooting and the continuous firepower.
However, in this way, the logistics support has become complicated, because the Czech light machine gun uses 7.92×57mm Mauser bullets, which are not common with the 38-type rifle cartridges that are now widely used by the 39th Group Army, but after the completion of the rifle production line of the Taihang Arsenal, Yue Weihan still plans to replace a large number of official rifles, so that the problem of logistics support will be solved.
Then there is no conscience cannon, the existing equipment and technology of the Etherhang Arsenal is impossible to produce artillery with a caliber of more than 105, two reasons, one is that the quality of the steel is not up to par, and the other is that there is no large-scale processing equipment, and the current production capacity of the Etherhang Arsenal can only produce mortars of 60 or 80 calibers.
However, the unconscionable artillery can well compensate for the lack of heavy firepower of the 39th Army.
The so-called unconscionable cannon, in fact, is a large-caliber mortar cannon, and it is the kind of production process that is extremely primitive, this thing was invented by Huaye in the Huaihai Campaign, large caliber, high power, but the manufacturing process is extremely rough, to put it bluntly, it is to use a large iron cylinder and a small explosive package to launch the large explosive package, and then rely on the large explosive package to kill the target.
The current strength of the Taihang Arsenal can produce a conscienceless cannon with a relatively good surname.
First of all, the range of the unconscionable cannon produced by the Taihang Arsenal can definitely exceed a kilometer, and there is the cannonball, Yue Weihan does not plan to use a pure explosive package, if a pure explosive package is used, it will not only affect the range, but the killing range is also small, and it will only be five to ten meters if it is killed, but if you use a shotgun, it is two concepts!
The so-called shotgun, of course, is not the real shotgun with complex craftsmanship and small caliber in later generations.
Yue Weihan also wants to equip his troops with shotguns, this thing is definitely the ultimate weapon for individual soldiers in jungle warfare, mountain warfare and street warfare, although the range is not far, but one shot can kill a large area! If the 39th Group Army really wants to be able to be equipped with a large number of shotguns, then the little devil will not want to enter the Taihang Mountain, and he will definitely die as many as he comes.
However, with the current strength of the Ether Xing Armament Mei, it is impossible to process a real shotgun at all.
The shotgun that Yue Weihan thought of was actually a thin-skinned hollow iron cylinder, which not only had to be filled with a large number of yellow explosives, but also filled with hundreds of small steel balls or small iron nails, the caliber of this hollow iron cylinder was 300mm small, 500mm large, and weighed as little as four kilograms and weighed as much as 20 kilograms, and the lethality was definitely the ultimate level.
