Chapter 501: Guerrilla Artifact

Before the arsenal was transferred to Heihe one after another, Meng Qingshan took out a lot of drawings of weapons. But most of these drawings are light weapons, only this one is known as the only one of the three major guerrilla artifacts designed by the Chinese one hundred and seven-mm multiple rocket launcher, that is, China's Type 63 107-mm rocket launcher, this rocket launcher looks a little rudimentary, sticking to the dirt can not tell whether it is a weapon or a farm tool, although its appearance is not good, but in the 40 years of its service, it has repeatedly created incredible miracles. The 107 rocket launcher is not only lightweight, but also can be quickly disassembled and combined, and the weight of a single component after disassembly will not exceed 30 kg, which is very suitable for guerrilla warfare, which is a heavy weapon that Meng Qingshan is preparing to deploy to the Wugong team.

Although Meng Qingshan also knew that the arsenal of the Anti-Japanese Federation could not form large-scale production, even if it could not be mass-produced, Meng Qingshan had to prepare for the future, and he had to study it first, so that the time would be a waste of time and energy in research, so Meng Qingshan deliberately arranged the student soldiers recruited from the school to the arsenal and let them become members of the arsenal. At least until you have your own large-scale production capacity, you can save time and go straight to production. There are many weapons and AK 47 rifles that came out in advance, RGP Type 2 anti-tank rocket launchers, have been taken to exchange materials with the Soviets, in exchange for a lot of raw materials needed by the Anti-United Nations Arsenal, with sufficient manpower and material support, the current Anti-United Nations Arsenal is not comparable to the Shenyang Arsenal, but it is also almost the same as the arsenal of Yan Laoxi in the Guannei, the only difference is that the Anti-United Nations Arsenal can produce self-developed heavy weapons under the condition of sufficient raw materials. The disadvantage was that there were too few technicians, which made the output of the arsenal very low. This is also Meng Qingshan's stern order, even if there is less production. Don't want an inferior product, any weapon produced is accurate to the bullet, and these gatekeepers are composed of technicians in the arsenal, such a strict standard to avoid the weapon suddenly exploding on the battlefield, otherwise the output of the arsenal will be very high, but whether it can be used is a very serious problem.

Assault rifles were developed very early, but unfortunately, the consumption of bullets was too large, and Meng Qingshan would not let all troops be equipped with assault rifles before forming a large-scale military production capacity. Only one regiment of the guard brigade was equipped, and this kind of firepower and range were not close among weapons of the same caliber, and the most important thing was the light and simple twelve-barrel rocket launcher, which was the offensive weapon that Meng Qingshan decided to allocate to the troops below.

Baidu of later generations, and one of the buddies who was born as an artillery guy always talks to himself about the artillery of the army, from the cannon of the anti-Japanese period to the modern artillery, if you only say it once, Meng Qingshan will definitely not remember, and he will forget it in a few days, the key is that his buddy is the same as Tang Seng. When he met Meng Qingshan, he said it once, in order to avoid this guy, Meng Qingshan tried everything he could, but unfortunately he failed. In the end, Meng Qingshan decided to defeat him in his most proud military knowledge, which made him afraid, and after several months of hard study. Meng Qingshan finally changed from an angry youth to a theoretical military master, so he knew that many times weapons and equipment are not as advanced as possible. Because the more advanced the weapon. The higher the maintenance and supply conditions required.

Assault rifles, which are known for their rapid-fire weapons, can only be produced from captured raw materials from the Japanese army. Meng Qingshan, who did not have any raw material supply conditions, could not afford to equip it at all. For the moment, using the Japanese-style 38 rifle is the most correct choice for Meng Qingshan. Because he can easily get bullets.

However, for this kind of multiple rocket launchers, Meng Qingshan is still ready to equip it. After all, this kind of firepower, itself is extremely light weapons, the most important thing is to use simple weapons, or very suitable for the current situation of Meng Qingshan's troops, not to mention the experience of producing 918 (Ha Qiusha) rocket artillery, which will shorten the time to research this kind of light rocket artillery, and secondly, the Anti-Japanese Federation has established a lot of munitions industry in Heihe, which can support the production of arsenals in small quantities.

Fortunately, the raw materials for the production of 918 rocket launchers purchased from the Soviet Union were not all used up, but there were not many raw materials left, so only nine could be produced as samples. Even these nine rocket launchers attacking one hundred and eight tubes have exhausted all the seamless steel pipes in stock. As for the rockets, the experience of producing the 918 rockets made it easier to produce them, but due to the raw materials and time, only more than 1,000 were produced, with an average of 10 rounds per tube.

However, even the more than 1,000 rounds of rockets, because they consumed a small amount of smokeless gunpowder as a ******, also made Li Fuchun feel distressed enough. The smokeless gunpowder used in the production of more than 1,000 rounds of rockets, if it is used to make Type 38 rifle bullets that are also made of smokeless gunpowder ******, can produce at least several million rounds, which makes Meng Qingshan suffer from everyone's eyes, but after several previous experiences, everyone is only a little distressed, but they are still looking forward to this new type of rocket artillery.

Distressed is distressed, but reluctant to let the child not catch the wolf, Zhou Baozhong, Li Fuchun and others still know. When he learned that more than 1,000 rounds of rockets and nine 12-barreled rocket launchers were manufactured, it was when Zhang Facai led the cavalry to ambush the Japanese army on the front line of the Nenjiang River, when Meng Qingshan learned that Zhang Facai's regiment had more than 4,000 people, he was shocked, where is this a regiment, it is simply a division, Meng Qingshan and Zhou Bao discussed it, and directly promoted Zhang Facai from the regimental level to the division level, feeling that the cavalry division has enough mobile strength, but lacks offensive weapons, So Meng Qingshan directly equipped Zhang Facai's troops with this newly developed weapon, and brought a few gunners with him to test the actual combat effect. As a result, the 36th Infantry Wing of the Ninth Division of the Japanese Kwantung Army unfortunately became a victim of the first batch of light rocket artillery developed by the Anti-Japanese Federation in the world.

When Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Ryosuke, commander of the 9th Division, learned that Zhalantun had been captured by the Anti-Japanese Alliance, he immediately summoned his troops to rush to the meeting to prepare to recapture Zhalantun before General Umezu Mijiro knew about it, and at the same time, in order to prevent the troops of the 1st Division from attacking along the rear of his own troops, he specially arranged for the 36th Infantry Wing to be cut off.

After several hours of pursuit, a regiment of the cavalry division finally discovered the traces of the 36th Wing and found its camp, and the commander of the regiment smashed all the 200 rockets he carried into the Japanese camp without any distress. The 107 rocket artillery is not only lightweight, but also can be quickly disassembled and combined, and the weight of a single component after disassembly will not exceed 30 kilograms.

Unlike ordinary mountain howitzers, this weapon does not have the loud sound of other artillery fires, except for the tail flame that is like a firework in the sky, and the swishing sound of breaking through the sky can only be heard on the top of the head. The 36th Wing, which encountered this weapon for the first time and did not believe that the anti-Union cavalry would chase after it, did not realize that it had been attacked until a batch of shells fell on the top of their heads.

By the time the 200 rockets had exploded, the camp of the 36th Wing was already in shambles. Everywhere there were the corpses of Japanese soldiers who had been killed. Not to mention that the surviving Japanese soldiers were dizzy by the dense artillery fire for a while, even the regiment commander who hid on a mountain to observe the test results was also dumbfounded.

He never imagined that there would be such a kind of artillery, only three, but the lethal effect produced was almost the same as that of a seventy-two formed artillery regiment. And the launch speed is extremely fast. From the first shot to the completion of all 200 rounds, it took less than 20 minutes.

Looking at the shocking results in front of him, the commander of the first regiment finally understood that the division commander deliberately let himself bring these three guys when he let him pursue the Japanese army, at first he thought that the arsenal was imitated according to the devil's grenadier canister, but he didn't expect that this was a new guy developed by the arsenal, with this thing, then who would dare to say that the cavalry unit has no offensive strength, and is no longer afraid of encountering the enemy's pillboxes and heavy machine gun positions.

The regiment commander who was excited in his heart hurriedly told the news to the division commander Zhang Facai, and Zhang Facai hurriedly ordered someone to send the news to Meng Qingshan, who was waiting for the experimental results at the headquarters. (To be continued.) )
