Chapter 179: Grenades
Lying quietly in a very good-looking wooden box were five metallic-colored grenades, similar in shape and size to the M1913 grenades currently used by the German army.
"This box of yours sells a good image, isn't it specially customized for these grenades?" Qin Yu suddenly asked Ma Ruiyun, who was in charge of sending grenades over to the ordnance department, casually.
"It's a pity to throw away the leftovers from the butts made by the ordnance, in addition to disposing of those leftovers to the carpenters in Taonan at a low price, the people in the institute sometimes make some gadgets." Ma Ruiyun said truthfully.
"Well, waste utilization is good, it's just a few grenades, there's no need to use things that are too good, no matter how good-looking the box is, the lethality of the grenade is not good, and I won't save face for Chen Ruqin." Qin Yu made a joke, "Let people try it." ”
"It's okay to be lowly and lowly, please move the teacher's seat, about ten meters away." Ma Ruiyun Road.
Qin Yu and Lan Tianwei retreated ten meters, the power of gunpowder at this time was not as great as in later generations, and there were very few grenades with a killing radius of more than ten meters, not to mention that Ma Ruiyun had to throw a distance.
Ma Ruiyun took out a grenade, grabbed the grenade with his right hand, pinched the flap, pulled down the safety pin with his left hand, and then threw it violently, Qin Yu covered his ears in time, and after a few seconds, he could still hear a huge explosion dozens of meters away, dazzling sparks and smoke, and a small crater was blown out on the ground.
"What about the data from the Arsenal test?" Lan Tianwei asked first.
"The total weight is 460 grams, the total length is 101 mm, the charge is 64 grams, the detonation method is 5-6 seconds incendiary fuse, and the killing radius is 6-8 meters."
"The Ordnance Institute has compiled the German M1913 grenade in such a short period of time, and it seems that the division has invested a lot in the ordnance station. I want to go over and see if I have the opportunity to humble my position. Lan Tianwei glanced at Qin Yu meaningfully. At present, it is rare to have an arsenal with this strength in the Republic of China. The longer she spent in Mukden, the more surprised Lan Tianwei became, the military horse farm in Taonan, the large western hospital, and the gradually improving military medical system. After Qin Yu bought a car. Qin Tian also began to try to make a small number of spare parts for the car, and initially mastered the maintenance of the car, from Benxi to Fengtian City alone, there are several car repair points.
Equipped with radio stations at the regimental level, field telephones began to be used at the brigade level. These seemingly inconspicuous places are improving the combat effectiveness and recovery ability of the Feng army bit by bit. It is something that the local armies of other provinces do not have, that is, the central army, and I am afraid that it is not as good as the Feng army in these aspects. Qin Yu has done so much. It was far beyond the scope of a division commander's authority, and sometimes Lan Tianwei even wondered what Qin Yu was going to do.
"The investment in the Ordnance Institute is far less than the investment in industry, but the technical personnel of the Ordnance Institute are indeed conscientious and conscientious, and so far, they have made a lot of achievements. But it's far from a real arsenal. ”
Qin Yu was not very satisfied with the progress of the Ordnance Institute, but there was no way, so he had some bullets right now. Imitation grenades, which can also be hidden and trolled. If you really want to build guns and cannons on a large scale, and build a large arsenal, it is tantamount to a direct showdown with Yuan Shikai, with Yuan Shikai's strength in the Republic of China at this time, no matter how generous he is, he will not allow it. Starting a war with the Central Army was not Qin Yu's original intention.
"The newly imitated grenade of the Ordnance Institute has not yet been named, Brother Ji Hao, what do you think is the appropriate name?"
"Look at the humble position, it's still called De goods, take a new name, and accidentally be known by outsiders that the Tao was made by Fengtian himself. It is inevitable that people will have bad thoughts. Lan Tianwei thought for a moment.
"Well, that's a good point, then I won't choose a name for the time being, by the way, how many of these grenades can be produced in one piece?" Qin Yu looked at Ma Ruiyun.
"Now the daily output is 30, but the grenade production process is not complicated, Director Chen said, within three months, as long as the division gives enough input, the daily output can be increased to 2,000, or even higher." Ma Ruiyun Road.
"It's not much, I'll call Chen Ruqin later." Qin Yu waved his hand and motioned for Ma Ruiyun to retreat.
"A daily output of 2,000 is enough to supply the Feng army for a period of time." Blue Sky Blue Road.
"Try it out for the troops below first, listen to the reactions of the soldiers, and then improve if there is anything inappropriate, we are the commanders, we can't charge into battle like the soldiers, whether a pair of shoes fit or not only those who wear it know the way, whether the weapons produced should be equipped or not, it can't just be decided by those of us who are commanders." Qin Yu said with a smile. "Foreigners have done a good job in this regard, and I think some bad habits in China will have to be changed in the future."
"Shizuo is right." The guy in his hand is good or not, only those who have used it know the way, it is directly related to the life and safety of the soldier on the battlefield, Qin Yu usually seems to be tough outside, but to his subordinates, the ordinary people of Fengtian can do everything possible to protect him, not arbitrarily, no wonder he can have such prestige in Fengtian. Even Lan Tianwei herself didn't think so deeply as Qin Yu.

"I actually ran to the ground of our Fengtian, I really got impatient." Zhu Jiguang spit out the thatch in his mouth and observed it with a telescope for a while, "There are one or two hundred of my own people, and I don't know if Lu Dao is Chahar or Rehe escaped, and the rebels are about a thousand people." ”
"I'll see." Another soldier next to him took the binoculars, observed them for a while, and then nodded, "It seems that we can have a good time today." ”
Zhu Jiguang took the Zeiss six-fold optical telescope that he bought back from Germany, and wiped the dust on it with his hands like a baby. I heard that it is imported, and the price of such a telescope is expensive, and they can't afford to buy it for a year's salary, but it is also very good, and in the past, it is very good to have good eyesight, and it is impossible to see far, and it is easy for scouts to come into contact with enemy soldiers and when they see the enemy. It was also discovered by the enemy. Now you can find the enemy, but you can calmly get out.
"Let's go, go and inform the regiment and teach these Mongolian soldiers a lesson."
"Damn, Lao Tzu really poured blood mold for eight lifetimes." Liu Kangning scolded on horseback, and there were less than 200 people left behind him. Further away. It was thousands of Mongolian troops who pursued and beat it.
"Sixth brother, this group of bandits is really haunted. I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up with Taonan. Liu Lifa panted on horseback, and after repeated fierce battles, he was shot in the shoulder, lost too much blood, and his face was very pale.
"Don't fucking say anything frustrating. It broke Lao Tzu's morale. Liu Kangning glared at Liu Li with big eyes, "Don't take a day, you can escape to Taonan, Taonan is an important town in Fengtian, there are a large number of Fengtian troops stationed, flee to Taonan, we will be safe, no matter how hard and tired we are." For most of the day, the brothers held on! ”
"Catch up. Kill all these Han people and avenge the King of Dormer! ”
The Mongolian troops of the brigade galloped all the way, biting the tail of the 3rd battalion.
The horses galloped lightly, and the sound of stepping on the ground produced a magnificent roar.
"Haluha, brethren, saved. There is salvation! Liu Kangning, Liu Lifa looked at the cavalry phalanx in front of him, overjoyed, the tired blood clots on his expression were swept away, and the ecstasy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe was like a spring. There were more than 600 people in the phalanx in front of them. With the addition of these two hundred people, although they are still inferior to the Mongolian army, they already have the strength to fight. It is not a lamb to the slaughter. The Feng army in front, all blue-gray uniforms and five-color flags with twelve blue sky and white sun, looked mighty. Of course, Liu Kangning would not be stupid enough to rush directly to the reinforcements and scatter the opponent's formation, but he was afraid that the Feng army would be the first to destroy them as enemy troops. Deflected over the horse's head and circled the flank of the Feng army.
"Brother Fengjun, we are from the 3rd Battalion of the 2nd Chahar Mixed Regiment..." Liu Kangning's roar was almost negligible under the sound of rolling horses' hooves.
"Dansang, the Han people in front of you look a little weird." Batawang looked at the Fengjun formation standing still in front of him, and his heart beat a drum.
"This group of Han troops looks like they are about 600 people, and their strength is weaker than ours, plus the deserting army, there are only 800 people, but those deserters are exhausted, and their combat effectiveness is already vulnerable, and our people have gained the upper hand. General Bata, whether you fight or not, I will listen to you. Tansang looked at Batawan with an inquiring gaze. At the same time, he ordered the soldiers behind him to slow down the speed of the horse, he had consumed a lot of horsepower when he was chasing Liu Kangning just now, and now he had to fight a vicious battle, if the horse couldn't run, it wouldn't work.
"Since we have the advantage, of course we have to fight, don't you think the equipment of these Han armies is too good, only the descendants of the Golden Family deserve to wear such a strict and mighty military uniform." Batawang licked his lips greedily, he didn't think they were shabby before, at this time, compared with the strict attire of the Feng army, many of these Mongolian soldiers were still wearing military uniforms left over from the Qing Dynasty in the past, or they brought their own clothes, and they were dressed in a variety of ways. The Han army on the opposite side was uniformly dressed, although they were a little smaller than them in numbers, but the momentum of cohesion was not inferior.
"But General Bata, the Han people are the most cunning, they don't move there, will it be weird?" Dansang couldn't help but say, "It's not good that the Han people are suspicious, so we can't get through them and delay time." ”
"It makes sense, since the Han army is not moving, let's fight first and don't give them a chance to delay." Batawang drew his saber and raised it high, and there were some blood stains on the snow-white sword, which was left after harvesting the lives of four Han soldiers. The guards beside Batawang raised his flag high.
"Living Buddha Blessing!" As the flag fell, a frenzied roar rushed into the sky for a while, full of murderous energy, and the sound of hooves was like thunder.
From slowing down to accelerating again, the time of the Mongolian army was extremely short, revealing that these Mongolian people who grew up on horseback were extremely clever in riding, but as these people rushed forward, the Fengjun cavalry did not make the slightest movement, just quietly waiting for the arrival of the Mongolian army, which couldn't help but see that Liu Kangning and these people were also anxious, if the Mongolian army rushed over, everything would be over.
