Chapter 363: The Frightened Chief (First Update!) )
"Pull a hair and move the whole body......" Hearing these words, Commander Nie's already frowning brows wrinkled even deeper at this time.
Then I suddenly thought of the last anti-encirclement and suppression operation.
If Wang Ping hadn't sent three or four thousand repaired rifles to the military region in time, he would have quickly formed three new regiments and replaced the three main regiments on the front line as mobile troops in his hands. It is almost impossible for the military region to concentrate its forces to annihilate the Japanese puppet army and sweep the troops all the way.
Because, at that time, the entire military region was full of Japanese puppet army sweeping troops, and every regiment had a battle, and they couldn't get out of it at all.
Under such circumstances, if the military region wants to win a victory against encirclement and suppression, there is only one way, which is to use guerrilla warfare and movement warfare to drag the Japanese puppet army to death.
In the process of dragging the Japanese puppet army to death, both the troops of the military region and the common people paid an unprecedented huge price.
This shows how important the mobile units are for the entire military district.
Commander Nie did not think of this situation, and from the day the military region was founded, he wanted to form a mobile unit in the military region. However, he did not have the conditions to form a mobile unit at all. This is also the reason why the military region's guard battalion was not expanded into a guard regiment until the last anti-encirclement and suppression battle, and the level of equipment is not as good as that of the newly expanded main regiment on the front line.
Although he was very moved, Commander Nie shook his head helplessly and replied, "It's not easy to talk about!" ”
"Wang Ping, our Eighth Route Army is poor!"
"The following military subdivisions, whether in terms of equipment or materials, are not enough for themselves, so how can they support the military region in forming mobile units?"
"Of course, as long as I give the order, the commanders below will definitely prefer to go hungry themselves and fight the devils with broadswords and spears, and I will send the best equipment. However, I can't give an order, and if I give this order, the combat effectiveness of the front-line combat units will be affected, and the gains outweigh the losses! ”
Wang Ping didn't want to give up this idea yet, and was ready to try one last time!
Although it would be a bit too much for him to do so, Wang Ping couldn't control so much, and continued to insist in the face of Commander Nie's gaze looking at him.
"But, chief, it's so important to form a mobile force. If the Japanese puppet army were to carry out an encirclement and suppression operation on the same scale as the last time, and there would be no mobile troops in the military region, and there would be no mobile troops in several military subdivisions, it would not be that it could only be passively beaten! ”
Commander Nie's frowning brow moved, but he was not angry.
After taking a deep breath, he asked Wang Ping, "Mobile troops, to put it lightly, where does the food come from?" Where does the gear come from? Where does the ammunition come from? Now we have nothing but soldiers, so to speak! ”
Wang Ping, who was in a hurry, completely let it go, and in order to solve the loophole in the military region, he directly blurted out: "Chief, the equipment and ammunition arsenal can be solved!" ”
"As for food, the arsenal can also help the military region solve part of it, but it will not be very stable!"
"You solve it, Wang Ping, you don't have to joke!" Commander Nie's frowning brows suddenly relaxed, and he stared at Wang Ping and asked.
"The arsenal doesn't even have a factory building now, how can you solve it? I know that you are for the good of the military region, and I also know that this matter is very important. You can rest assured that as long as the time is ripe, the military district will definitely form at least one brigade of mobile units. As for now, the conditions are not yet ripe! ”
Unexpectedly, Wang Ping still did not give up this idea, and affirmed in the face of Commander Nie's gaze.
"Chief, I got word this morning that in five days' time, the arsenal will be ready to reload with bullets. It's all the credit of Professor Li Xuebin, Zhou Wu's perseverance, and dozens of their students. ”
"In the morning, I have already seen Professor Li's armed bullet stamping equipment at the temporary station of the arsenal, and the speed is very fast, as long as there are enough copper rods, it can press 15,000 bullets a day!"
"Professor Li promised me that he would get the bullet reloader out within five days, and if possible, he would build another bullet stamping machine!"
"Professor Zhou, who has just joined the arsenal, also promised to get the primer of the bullet out within three days."
"When the bullet is available, the bullet casing can be collected by the front-line troops, and there is no problem, the bullet primer is also available, and the propellant is high explosive, no problem, as long as the raw materials are sufficient, and the production is carried out overtime twenty-four hours a day, the arsenal can be reloaded with at least 400,000 rounds of ammunition a month!"
"Are you sure it's not a joke!" Commander Nie's eyes lit up, staring at Wang Ping and asked.
"I'm sure, and I'm also inviting the chief to visit the arsenal in five days to see the first reload being produced!" Wang Ping invited with a confident face.
"Go, go by all means!" Commander Nie affirmed without hesitation.
No one knows better than Commander Nie the importance of these bullets to the military district.
According to statistics, due to the large-scale expansion of troops, except for the capture of the war of annihilation, the other battles were only not replenished by trenches.
Over time, the military region's seizures after its last anti-encirclement victory have been almost consumed.
Not surprisingly, it is now good that most combat units can now have five rounds of ammunition per capita.
If the arsenal can produce 400,000 rounds of ammunition a month, it will directly mean that the average number of rounds of ammunition per capita will suddenly increase from five to 10 rounds, which will be doubled, and it will be replenished every month. This will certainly be of great benefit to the enhancement of the combat effectiveness of all units of the entire military region.
Happy to happy, Commander Nie has not forgotten another problem of forming a mobile force! Armament!
"Wang Ping, even if you have ammunition, what about the equipment? Now that the equipment of the front-line troops is insufficient, how can it be possible to hand over equipment to the military region and form mobile units! Don't tell me, now the arsenal can also make its own equipment! If that's the case, I'll go to Yan'an in person to ask for credit for you! ”
"Not yet!" Wang Ping readily admitted.
Seeing the disappointed expression on Commander Nie's face, Wang Ping changed his words and continued: "However, because of Professor Li, they have modified a complete set of cutting machine tools, stamping machine tools, milling machines, grinding machines, and drilling machines...... In addition to the barrel, some basic accessories for rifles, the arsenal can already produce them in small batches. It's just that, we lack skilled technicians now, and now the students who operate these devices are Professor Li's students, and the output is not very high. ”
"But that's a great achievement for the arsenal."
"A rifle, as long as the barrel is good, our arsenal can fix it!"
"Several military regions are now able to reassemble armed rifles from scrapped rifle parts, and the repair rate of broken guns is only 50 or 60 percent, and the embers are no more than 70 percent. The remaining rifles, because of the lack of spare parts, they can only be disposed of as scrap metal! ,”
"But now it's different, the arsenal can process its own spare parts, as long as the rifles that they can't repair can be sent to the military district, the arsenal can be repaired. There are four military districts in total, and you can casually collect two or three thousand rifles that everyone thinks are scrap metal! ”
"Using the barrel of a scrapped rifle, our arsenal produces its own other parts, and has successfully armed five rifles without any problems!"
There was no doubt that Commander Nie was frightened again.
After confirming that Wang Ping was not lying, a touch of firmness quickly appeared on his face.
"I have guns, I have bullets, I have soldiers, and now I have no food. The military region is so large, there is no problem in feeding a few thousand more people. It's really not good, just leave the base and go outside to grab it from the Japanese puppet army~ Chief of Staff, I think there is a head! ”
