Chapter 385: Fighting Taiyuan? (Second Update!) )
After all, the Eighth Route Army is the actual controller of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and although the intelligence network has not achieved its deep-rooted purpose, it is still very powerful.
It didn't take long for the military district to learn that both the Japanese and the Nationalist government were looking for the military district arsenal.
After reading the information sent by the chief of staff, Commander Nie's brows immediately wrinkled into a big Sichuan character, and then ordered with a serious face.
"Chief of Staff, order the security department, keep an eye on me all this time. The arsenal is not only the hope of the military industry of our military region, but also the hope of the entire Eighth Route Army and the whole party. ”
"Contact Wang Ping, during this time, all the weapons and ammunition in the arsenal will be sealed, and they will not be transported out for the time being, and the arsenal will be completely blocked, and the arsenal will be cut off from the outside world!"
"Rest assured, commander, the security office is ready!" The chief of staff replied confidently.
"A few days ago, the devil intelligence agency went crazy looking for our legendary heavy artillery group, and our security department took advantage of this opportunity to crack several devil intelligence points in the base area at once, and arrested hundreds of people!"
"This time, the security department intends to crack a few more of their intelligence points! Let the devil know that the intelligence network of our Eighth Route Army is not vegetarian! ”
"Don't forget the intelligence network in Lao Jiang's hands!" Commander Nie reminded!
"On the surface, Lao Jiang is cooperating with us, but in fact, Lao Jiang doesn't want to eliminate us all the time!"
"Now looking for our arsenal with the Japanese, they definitely want to destroy it! Maybe there are some secret agreements between them and the Japanese that we don't know about! ”
"Lao Jiang cooperates with the Japanese, it's impossible!" The chief of staff asked rhetorically with a look of disbelief.
"Nothing is impossible, since the Anti-Japanese War, Lao Jiang has used the strategy of killing people with a knife more than once in order to weaken us. It's not impossible to cooperate with the devil once and destroy our arsenal, and we can't find evidence anyway! In a word, the security department must pay attention! ”
The Arsenal is located, and today the Arsenal has developed into two factories. One plant specializes in the production of grenades and repair firearms, and one plant specializes in the production of reloading bullets.
Wang Pingshou has been in the factory for almost five days, and the bullet stamping equipment and bullet reloading equipment on the bullet production line were quickly developed because of his experience. There were only ten troubles with the bullet casing stamping equipment, and Professor Li and his students studied it for several days but did not get the stamping die out.
Wang Ping was also very anxious, the bullet production line was guaranteed by himself and the commander, and there must be no accidents and give up halfway.
Therefore, he stayed with Li Xuebin for a few days, and sometimes used some things he had seen in later generations to put forward opinions.
Just when Wang Ping thought that he would return again today, an exclamation suddenly came out of Li Xuebin's mouth.
"It's done, it's supposed to be!"
"Director Wang, we'd better go to test the machine now and see if the bullet casings pressed out are up to standard!"
The test results were very good, and there was almost no difference between the bullet casings pressed out and the bullet casings sent from below, and they could be used directly.
The only thing that disappointed Wang Ping was that the efficiency of the bullet shell stamping equipment was a bit low, and it could only press out less than ten bullet shells in a minute, at this rate, even if it was produced day and night, it could only produce 10,000 bullet shells a day, that is, 10,000 bullets, which was just 30% of the reloading bullet production capacity!
Yang Yong, the political commissar of the arsenal, was very happy: "Factory director, 300,000 rounds of ammunition a month is enough for our Eighth Route Army to fight a big battle!" And if we can make the first bullet production line, then we will definitely be able to make the second one, as long as there is equipment! ”
Li Xuebin, who was excited, affirmed: "Political Commissar Zhou is right, as long as there is equipment from the mine, plus the parts processed by us with machine tools, and a few bullet production lines, there is no problem at all!" ”
Wang Ping's mood suddenly improved a lot: "Okay, I'll figure out a way for the equipment, and you and Professor Li will be in charge of production!" ”
"The superior leaders have high hopes for our arsenal, asking for money for money, and asking people for people, and we must not let down their high expectations!"
Zhou Yong immediately replied: "No problem." Now that the arsenal can also produce bullets, I believe that with Professor Li and Professor Zhou, plus the equipment you got back, the factory director, it will not be a problem to produce artillery shells in the future! ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Yong's words suddenly changed and continued: "The only regret is that we can't produce weapons yet. As long as the problem of barrel and rifling is not solved for a day, our arsenal can only process spare parts to repair firearms, and there is no way to produce them! ”
According to intelligence, the manufacture of barrels, and even barrels, as well as equipment for rifling, is too far away.
The Taiyuan Arsenal was one of the largest arsenals in China before the Anti-Japanese War, and although the Japanese army occupied the arsenal and transported a lot of equipment to the Guanwai, the Taiyuan Arsenal still left a lot of equipment.
According to the reports of intelligence officers lurking among the arsenal mechanics, although the scale of the Taiyuan Arsenal is now less than half of the original, as long as the personnel are organized, it is no problem to produce rifles, machine guns, heavy machine guns, mortars, and even mountain artillery.
As for ammunition, 75 mm caliber shells, ordinary mortar shells, all kinds of bullets, can be produced!
However, these devices are all in Taiyuan City, and if you want to get these equipment, there is no other way than to take Taiyuan City.
From the moment he received the information, Wang Ping began to look at these devices.
As long as we get our hands on these pieces of equipment and with the existing foundation of the arsenal, it will not be long before the arsenal of the military region will be able to develop into the largest arsenal in North China.
And with this arsenal, the overall development strength of the Eighth Route Army will definitely far exceed history.
However, he is a director of an arsenal. Even if you have a regiment in your hand, if you want to take Taiyuan and snatch the equipment out of Taiyuan City, it is also a fantasy and an impossible thing to accomplish.
But in the face of Zhou Yong's eager gaze, thinking of the expectations of the superior leaders for the arsenal, Wang Ping's words of prevarication and refusal were swallowed back by himself as soon as they came to his mouth.
In the end, he promised ruthlessly: "Political commissar, you give me a month!" ”
The Arsenal Guard Regiment was stationed, and Wang Ping came over directly: "Chief of Staff, how is the training of the reconnaissance platoon directly under the Guard Regiment!" ”
"They were all trained according to the old rules we had in the Independent Regiment. But because the time is too short, compared with the reconnaissance platoon of the independent regiment, the combat effectiveness is less than thirty percent of them! ”
"Then ask Lao Cheng to borrow soldiers!" Wang Ping made a decision immediately.
"You personally go to the Independent Brigade and tell Brigade Commander Cheng that I asked him to borrow a hundred scouts, and asked the reconnaissance company commander Chen Hu to lead the team, bring a radio station, and let me enter Taiyuan City. In ten days, I will find out all the situation of the Japanese puppet army in Taiyuan City, and then lurk! ”
"You pick twenty elite troops from the reconnaissance platoon and bring them to Chen Hu together, so that he can command this operation in a unified manner!"
Chen Hu opened his mouth directly because of the shock, and he didn't react for a long time.
stared at Wang Ping, and watched for half a minute before asking tentatively: "Regiment leader, you want to fight Taiyuan!" ”
