Chapter 116: A Weapon to Change the World

It took more than 20 minutes for Chen Feng to finally use up all the six lottery opportunities, and after reading the system rewards he got this time, Chen Feng smiled. This time, Chen Feng got a piece of personal equipment, a base construction order, two ordnance construction orders, and two personal skills.

His personal equipment is Chen Feng's long-cherished violent Desert Eagle pistol, which was released by MRI in 1980 and finally finalized by Israel Military Industries. The Desert Eagle is a fully functional large-caliber pistol that has become a frenzied pursuit by collectors and firearms enthusiasts as soon as it appeared.

However, Chen Feng knew that this desert eagle was not as good as people rumored. Although the advent of the Desert Eagle fills the gap in the market for large-caliber pistols, and the data is indeed very surprising, if you look at the data of the Desert Eagle, you will find that the Desert Eagle weighs 2 kilograms, which helps to control recoil when shooting at the range, but the larger weight means that it is difficult to operate, even if you hold the gun with both hands, it is difficult to aim and shoot for a long time, and there are restrictions on the action of the gun. The Desert Eagle is much larger than a regular pistol, and can be said to be a very large pistol, which is difficult to carry concealedly, and while this is not important in home self-defense situations, the large size also means that it is difficult to handle, and due to the thick grip, it is difficult for a shooter with a small palm to hold the gun firmly with one hand.

In addition, the muzzle flame of the Desert Eagle is very large, and anyone with a little common sense knows that if you suddenly encounter a strong flash of light in a dim environment, a residual image will be generated on the retina, so if you shoot in self-defense in a dim environment, you will need to take some time to recover your vision after firing a shot. It is believed that no one will object to the fact that "time is very important in close combat", but goggles can withstand part of it. The most important thing is that if the muzzle flame is too large, it is extremely difficult to conceal, and as soon as you fire, you will reveal your position and become a live target for the enemy.

The Desert Eagle demands a lot of the marksman's own qualities, just as you are as strong as Arnold, and can easily play with this large, heavy weapon with a strong recoil, and you don't care about the impact of the muzzle flame. But if you're not that robust, the heavy and large Desert Eagle can become a liability.

But Chen Feng does not have such a problem, with his current strength to the point of being close to a non-human physique, ordinary pistols are indeed not too suitable for him to use. Chen Feng had been using a German-made barge gun before, as for the captured southern Japanese pistol, Chen Feng couldn't look down on it at all, and Chen Feng didn't plan to use the garbage pistol that was ironically regarded as even suicide was sometimes a luxury, so the appearance of this desert eagle surprised Chen Feng.

The base construction order also made Chen Feng excited, it turned out to be a penicillin production line, and Chen Feng knew everything about penicillin. This powerful anti-inflammatory drug was invented by British medical scientist Fleming in 1928, before humans had been able to master a drug that could effectively treat bacterial infections with few side effects. At that time, if someone was sick with tuberculosis, it meant that the person would soon die, and in ancient China, the disease had a terrible name - tuberculosis.

In order to change this situation, researchers have been exploring for a long time, but the breakthrough in this area is due to an accidental discovery. Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin by a lucky mistake, and in the summer of 1928, when Fleming was on vacation, he forgot about the bacteria growing in the petri dish in the laboratory. When he returned to the lab three weeks later, he noticed a clump of green-green mold growing in a dish of Staphylococcus aureus that had been accidentally exposed to air. When looking at the dish with a microscope, Fleming noticed that the staphylococcal colonies surrounding the mold had been dissolved. This means that some kind of secretion of the mold inhibits staphylococcus. Subsequent identification showed that the mold was Penicillium punctata, so Fleming called the bacteriostatic substance it secreted penicillin.

Unfortunately, Fleming was never able to find a way to extract high-purity penicillin, so he cultivated the Penicillium strain from generation to generation, and in 1939 gave the strains to the British pathologist Flory and biochemist Chin who were preparing to systematically study penicillin.

After a period of intense experiments, Florey and Chann finally extracted the penicillin crystals by freeze-drying. Later, Flory found a mold on a melon that could be used to extract penicillin in large quantities and prepared a corresponding culture from corn flour. Since then, a series of clinical experiments have confirmed the efficacy of penicillin against streptococcus, diphtheria bacillus and other bacterial infections. The reason why penicillin can not only kill germs but also do not damage human cells is that penicillin contains penicillin can hinder the synthesis of the cell wall of pathogens, resulting in the lysis and death of germs, while human and animal cells have no cell wall. However, penicillin can cause allergic reactions in some people, so a skin test must be done before application. Driven by these research results, American pharmaceutical companies began mass production of penicillin in 1942. By 1943, pharmaceutical companies had discovered ways to mass-produce penicillin. Britain and the United States were at war with Nazi Germany. This new drug is very effective in controlling wound infections. By 1944, the supply of medicine was sufficient to treat all Allied soldiers who fought during the Second World War.

Penicillin is definitely not much worse than any advanced weaponry in the war, or even surpasses it. A true commander should know that the most valuable thing on the battlefield is not the iron lumps, but the soldiers. Every experienced veteran is a valuable asset, and in fact these riches dwindle with the wear and tear of the war, and a small number of them die directly on the battlefield, and many more die from their wounds. As long as the wound does not suppurate and does not become infected on the battlefield, the chance of complete recovery of the wounded is more than 80%.

At this time, the haze of the world war has shrouded most of the world, the madman in Germany has become the head of state, the old thing in Italy has been in power for 15 years, the smoke of the Spanish Civil War has not yet dissipated, the great purge of the Soviet Union is still going on, and soon the entire world will be dragged into the quagmire of war, and the number of dead soldiers will be astronomical.

Penicillin, in Chen Feng's view, is not only a good medicine to reduce his own casualties, but also a stepping stone to open the coffers of various countries. This penicillin production line is designed to produce 20,000 tons of penicillin per year, producing 15 kinds of penicillin drugs, including: penicillin V potassium granules, meloxicillin sodium for injection, benzathine penicillin for injection, ampicillin sodium for injection, piperacillin sodium for injection, ticarcillin sodium for injection, amoxicillin sodium for injection, sulbactam sodium, etc.

What is the concept of 20,000 tons, even if at the end of the first decade of the 21st century, the total output of antibiotics such as penicillin in China is only 57,000 tons, and the annual output of a production line produced by the system can reach 20,000 tons.

The output of 20,000 tons is definitely a myth, not only can greatly meet the use of domestic troops, but also can be exported to foreign countries in large quantities, such as the United States, Britain, etc., it seems that France and the Soviet Union are also a good choice.

Compared with the penicillin production line, two ordnance construction orders are not bad, one is the Soviet AK47 assault rifle production line and the Thomson submachine gun production line.

The AK47 assault rifle is the work of legendary Soviet firearms designer Mikhail Timofeevich Kalashnikov. A is the first letter of the automatic rifle in Russian, K is the first letter of the name of Kalashnikov, and 47 is the year of manufacture, which means "Kalashnikov's automatic rifle finalized in 1947."

Before the advent of automatic rifles, semi-automatic rifles were used by the armies of various countries. For example, Germany's Mauser 98K, Japan's 38 big cover, the Soviet Union's Mosin Nagant, etc., this rifle can automatically complete the shelling and feeding, it is the beginning of the 19th century began to develop, and in the two wars widely used and developed a rifle, its combat rate of fire is generally 35 ~ 40 rounds / min, pull a trigger can only fire one bullet.

In contrast, the automatic rifle is a rifle that can automatically reload and unshell and fire in bursts, its combat rate of fire is 40 rounds / min when a single shot, which is not much different from a semi-automatic rifle, but it can reach 300~650 rounds / min when firing in bursts.

The AK-47 assault rifle has a short body and an effective range of about 400 meters, making it suitable for close-range combat. The automatic mode is a gas-conducted, rotary locking bolt. 7.62 mm caliber, firing 7.62×39 mm M1943 intermediate power gun rounds, 30 rounds of arc magazine feeding, reserve magazine can carry up to 90 rounds, equivalent to 3 magazines. Semi-automatic or fully automatic launch is available.

The bolt of the AK-47 is reliable, solid and durable, with a low failure rate, and the shooting performance is very good regardless of the temperature conditions, especially when used in wind, sand, mud and water, the performance is reliable, even if there are foreign objects such as dust and other foreign objects entering the gun during continuous firing, the mechanical structure can still ensure that it continues to work; Good serviceability; The structure is simple and easy to decompose.

Compared with the semi-automatic rifles used by countries in the world today, AK47 and Type 75 anti-aircraft machine guns are both sharp weapons that can change the world. Moreover, the design output of the AK47 rifle production line is not bad, reaching a monthly output of 5,000 pieces. Although the output is indeed a bit low compared to the more than 100,000 troops under Chen Feng's current department, it is still enough to deal with the little devils.
