"In terms of production, it should be able to produce 20 rifles per day and one light machine gun at present." Johnson may have been afraid that Qiao Youhua would be disappointed, and hurriedly added: "After all, the arsenal has just been built, and many workers are still very unfamiliar with the work process.

I estimate that in a month's time, the speed of production should be about doubled, or even more. ”

At present, the arsenal of the Dragon's Tooth Column can only produce rifles, pistols, and light and heavy machine guns and corresponding ammunition, and does not have the ability to produce artillery for the time being.

Qiao Youhua nodded and expressed his understanding: "If you don't produce light and heavy machine guns, only rifles, can the speed be greatly improved?" ”

Johnson thought for a moment and replied: "If only rifles are produced, it should be able to achieve 30 rifles a day, and in a month it will be able to reach a scale of 100 rifles a day, and each bullet can be equipped with 100 to 150 rounds!" ”

One hundred a month, only a thousand in ten months, the production capacity is actually not enough to meet the needs of the dragon's tooth column for the time being, but for a military industry that has just been created, this is already quite good.

And in ten months, the capacity of the arsenal will definitely increase again, as Johnson said.

Johnson was puzzled and asked, "Dear Commander Qiao, please forgive me for asking more, why don't you want the arsenal to produce light and heavy machine guns?" Aren't these weapons more lethal than rifles? ”

Qiao Youhua said: "To be honest, I have purchased a batch of light and heavy machine guns through other channels, plus the capture of this period of fighting, my troops really have no shortage of machine guns at the moment." What is missing is this Ying-77 rifle, which is more powerful than the Japanese rifle. ”

"OK, I see." Johnson didn't go into the nitty-gritty of asking, apparently he understood that there were some things to ask and some things not to ask.

Qiao Youhua really does not plan to be equipped with British and American series machine guns, because the German-style MG series general-purpose machine guns can completely replace Czech light machine guns, Browning heavy machine guns and other models of light and heavy machine guns.

With a general-purpose machine gun that can be used both for heavy machine gun firepower and for light machine guns, who would think about equipping light and heavy machine guns separately and increasing the logistical pressure on the troops?

Moreover, equipping the British 77 rifle is only a transitional choice for the current period, and when the time is ripe in the future, Qiao Youhua still has to replace the troops with German-style weapons as much as possible, German-style weapons are more advanced and durable, and the power is large enough.

Of course, the American-style M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle is also a pretty good rifle, and it was also a good weapon before the army developed a fully automatic assault rifle.

Moreover, there must be a process for the development of these weapons from manual to semi-automatic and then to fully automatic, and these weapons must be skillfully produced and developed by their own arsenals before they can innovate and develop more advanced weapons and equipment.

…………

Pingshan County is surrounded by mountains on both sides, one side is surrounded by water, and the other side is the hilly plain bordering Zhengding and Luquan.

In the afternoon, because the sun was setting in the west, it was not so hot, and a young woman wearing an earthy gray military uniform walked out of the west gate of the city.

The female soldier with the Dragon's Tooth Column Communications Office on her badge smiled sweetly at them, and almost fainted the big-headed soldiers to the ground.

Knowing that after she left along the path outside the city, several big-headed soldiers were still in a daze, until their squad leader came to check the post, and saw that they were all in a state of despair, and one of them kicked them in the stomach to pull them back to reality.

The second lieutenant platoon commander scolded dissatisfiedly: "You guys, don't stand guard well, why are you here one by one?" ”

When a veteran saw that it was the platoon commander, he smiled mysteriously and said, "Platoon commander, didn't you see it, a few of us saw a big beauty just now!" It's so beautiful. ”

Several other big-headed soldiers also nodded in agreement, their faces full of yearning.

"What big beauty? Where did the big beauty come from? What about people? After all, the second lieutenant platoon commander was born as an elite veteran, and the first thing that came to mind was security, so he asked questions repeatedly.

Seeing the vigilance on the platoon commander's face, the veteran hurriedly said: "Oh, platoon commander, don't worry, it's not an enemy agent, it's a female soldier from the communications department.

I still don't believe it, but when I saw it today, I realized that my fellow really didn't lie to me! ”

"Uh-huh." Several of the other big-headed soldiers nodded in agreement.

"Where's the people from the communications office?" The second lieutenant platoon commander asked.

The veteran pointed in the direction where the beautiful female soldier had disappeared and said, "Over there, platoon commander, do you want to see the real thing?" Brother, we don't dare to lie to you, it's definitely a first-class beauty embryo, and it is better than the two wives of our commander! ”

When the second lieutenant platoon commander saw his **** appearance, he couldn't help but kick him again, pointed at him and several other guards guarding the city, and scolded: "Look at the virtue of a few of you, all of them are the same as his mother who has never seen a woman in his eight lives, which point still looks like an anti-Japanese soldier?" Stand guard honestly for Lao Tzu, if you let the enemy agents get in, I will kill you! ”

"Yes!" Seeing that the platoon commander was angry, several guards immediately put away their jokes, straightened up one after another, and said with a stern face.

The second lieutenant platoon commander turned around and returned to the city, muttering puzzled as he walked: What are you doing over there from the female soldier in the communications department? A grove of woods.

However, he didn't take this matter to heart, after all, those who could join the communications department were carefully selected by Political Commissar Guo and passed the political trial, so there would be no problem.

After the beautiful female soldier left the city, she came to a dense forest three kilometers west of the city, which was uninhabited and very desolate, and there were all kinds of wild animals and birds in the woods from time to time, and the female soldiers looked a little frightened.

Suddenly, a dark figure jumped down from the tree in front of her and landed in front of her.

The female soldier almost screamed, and when she fixed her eyes, a woman wearing a black tight leather suit, long black leather boots, a hot body, and a look no less than her own, appeared in front of her.

"Are you Black Rose?" The beautiful female soldier said.

"Hmph, Boss Dai is really willing to spend his blood! Such a beautiful woman is willing to take it out to deal with Qiao Youhua, that guy, she is still a virgin! What a rarity! Black Rose looked at her with a glaring and unscrupulous gaze, sneering and teasing.

I don't know how the other party saw that he was still a virgin, Chu Hanyun still blushed with shame on her cheeks, and lowered her head: "You asked me to come here, what do you need me to do, say it, as long as you promise to spare my brother's life." ”
