Chapter 16: Let's Build an Arsenal Too
This special operation can be said to have dealt a great blow to the arrogance of the little devils, so that the little devils' originally planned sweep had to be suspended.
For the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army, this time Duan Yunpeng and they have played the power of the new regiment, and Li Yunlong has also been commended by his superiors, not to mention Duan Yunpeng.
not only eliminated more than a hundred devils, but also destroyed a large arsenal, the most important thing is that everyone knows that Duan Yunpeng, who has the greatest credit, killed hundreds of devils alone.
Although it is said that ten soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were also sacrificed, the results in exchange for the battle were unprecedented!
However, this operation also led to the little devils to intensify their sweeping, and now the Eighth Route Army is facing unprecedented difficulties, especially in the consumption of ammunition, which is very large.
Obtaining ammunition has become a difficult problem for the Eighth Route Army.
Finally, at this time, someone stepped forward, and he was Duan Yunpeng.
This time, Duan Yunpeng took the initiative to ask his superiors to hand over the Motianling Arsenal to him, and he promised to produce 100,000 rounds of ammunition every month, as well as 1,000 rifles, mortars and other weapons more than 100.
This tone is indeed big enough, the leaders of the Eighth Route Army, of course, know that Duan Yunpeng is very capable, but the current situation cannot be ignored.
Motianling Arsenal is not the only arsenal of the Eighth Route Army, you must know that after the establishment of the Eighth Route Army, it was faced with a shortage of guns and ammunition, so some arsenals were established one after another, but most of the arsenals could not make guns and bullets in the early days, so they could only repair guns and reuse old eggshell charges.
But now Duan Yunpeng wants to use the Motianling Arsenal to produce 100,000 rounds of ammunition per month and 1,000 rifles, if this is really possible, I am afraid it will change the combat mode of the Eighth Route Army.
You must know that because the Eighth Route Army lacked ammunition, it was very economical on the battlefield, and even shouted the slogan that if you don't kill the enemy, you won't shoot.
If you get 100,000 rounds of ammunition per month, then the average is two rounds per fighter, and while this still seems like a drop in the bucket, it's actually pretty good.
Even counting the arsenals founded by the Eighth Route Army in the later period of the Anti-Japanese War, there were only three arsenals with an annual output of 200,000 rounds of bullets.
But now, Duan Yunpeng guarantees that he can produce 100,000 rounds a month, and this year is 1.2 million rounds, which is very terrifying.
You must know that when the Eighth Route Army first left the Anti-Japanese War, there were only more than 10,000 guns, and an average of 30 rounds of ammunition were distributed per unit, and the total number of bullets was less than 500,000 rounds.
Therefore, usually when the Eighth Route Army is fighting, it will charge after three bullets, because now basically there are only five bullets for one gun.
Otherwise, how could Li Yunlong snatch the devil's guns and bullets, and he didn't want to hand them in, because it was too short.
The Motianling Arsenal is not far from the station of the new first regiment, and it can be done at both ends, so Duan Yunpeng proposed to give him this arsenal.
You must know that the arsenal produces weapons and equipment, and the most important thing is the lack of raw materials, as well as processing equipment and workers, but now, Duan Yunpeng has successfully completed the task of destroying the Japanese arsenal, so the system has rewarded a lot of raw materials, which can produce a large number of weapons and equipment, Duan Yunpeng pondered, in a year, to make two rotorcraft, and even in the future, you can try to develop and produce the Eighth Route Army's own armored vehicles.
Indeed, there are a lot of various raw materials rewarded by the system this time.
Of course, these are all placed in the system space, Duan Yunpeng can take them out at any time, as for how to explain to the superiors at that time, so as not to make people suspicious, then you have to think about it.
In any case, the top priority is to fight against Japan for the Eighth Route Army and solve the problem of ammunition and weapons.
Unexpectedly, Duan Yunpeng's request was quickly approved.
Now Duan Yunpeng has concurrently served as the deputy commander of the first battalion of the new regiment, the captain of the special operations team, and the director of the Motianling Arsenal, and his promotion speed is indeed amazingly fast.
However, the name of the god of war also gives him this qualification, no one is unconvinced, in all units of the Eighth Route Army, everyone is talking about Duan Yunpeng, the god of war, and the special operations he created, which are also being promoted.
Li Yunlong is the happiest one, because Duan Yunpeng is a member of his new regiment, and Duan Yunpeng, an arsenal, will produce weapons and equipment in the future, so why should he give more to the new regiment, after all, he is his own family, and he will get the moon first near the water.
Duan Yunpeng also knew that the Eighth Route Army Arsenal was not easy, not only was the equipment poor, but it was also often moved everywhere because of the sweep of little devils.
Therefore, Duan Yunpeng is also thinking about building this arsenal into a permanent large-scale arsenal, and if he has enough defense equipment in the future, he will not be afraid of the attack of the little devil, even if the bomber of the little devil comes, he will be beaten down.
At present, there are more than 100 cadres and skilled workers and more than 20 sets of processing equipment, all of which were set up from equipment seized from Japanese puppet factories and mines.
In the anti-Japanese base area, there was abundant iron ore, so the Eighth Route Army also organized mining, coal mining, and set up its own factories for smelting, but the quantity and quality were not ideal.
But now, it's not a big problem, in Duan Yunpeng's system space, there are 100,000 tons of steel, 10,000 tons of copper, and other materials and materials rewarded by the system, and there are also a lot of processing equipment that is necessary for the production of bullets and guns in the arsenal.
Duan Yunpeng's arrival made the entire Motianling Arsenal boil.
Everyone knows that Duan Yunpeng is the god of war of the Eighth Route Army, and he has eliminated hundreds of devils by himself, so it can be said that there is no one before and no one after him.
Now he leads everyone in the production of weapons and equipment, and there is no one who is not convinced.
Today, Duan Yunpeng convened everyone and held a general meeting.
More than a hundred people all looked at Duan Yunpeng, expecting him to bring changes to the arsenal.
Duan Yunpeng said loudly: "Comrades, our Motianling Arsenal is an important weapons and equipment production base of the Eighth Route Army, and the reason why I came here is to hope to work with you to produce more and more advanced weapons and equipment for our Eighth Route Army and make greater contributions to the War of Resistance." We will not only produce 100,000 rounds of ammunition, 1,000 rifles, hundreds of mortars, etc. every month, but will also independently design and develop more advanced equipment. I am ready to expand the scale of our arsenal, and we will see results within a month, and I hope everyone can follow in my footsteps and work hard together! ”
The applause rang out enthusiastically, and everyone in the arsenal was full of fighting spirit.
The next task of expanding the arsenal is also very heavy, and Duan Yunpeng explained his plan in detail.
After all, to produce 100,000 rounds of ammunition and 1,000 rifles a month, it is not enough to rely on the current number of people and processing equipment.
