In the north of Xinxiang City, near the northwest corner of the city wall, it was originally a factory specializing in pickling pickles, because the Japanese army entered the city, the boss's daughter was dragged away by the devil****** boss fought hard with the little devil with a knife, and the family was all killed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The pickles and belongings in the factory were looted by the Japanese army, and later because of the empty space, the Japanese army shot and killed civilians and anti-Japanese soldiers here many times.

The factory becomes a no-man's land.

After the New First Army recovered Xinxiang, because the owner of the factory and his family were killed, and no one inherited it, the factory and land were temporarily managed by the Northern Henan Administration.

Later, because of this remote location and not many nearby residents, the New First Army's direct secret unit, the Light Weapons Research Institute, also known as the 601 Institute, was relocated as a whole.

"Mr. Shen, the test data fully meets the design requirements, but the reliability and practicability still need to be tested in actual combat."

"Well, very good, Xiao Wang, you have worked hard, and you have finally completed the task assigned by the military seat." Since the director of the 601 Institute and the chief firearms designer, Lao Ning has been designing and manufacturing a rifle suitable for Chinese use.

With many years of experience in repairing firearms, as well as a mastery of the performance of rifles of various models and countries, coupled with the guidance of Leng Feng.

It took three months for Lao Ning to design this perfect rifle.

Although it was designed, in the process of making guns, it was still constantly improving, and dozens of prototype guns were made, with various different calibers and different ammunition tested.

After nearly half a year of hard work, he finally created an answer sheet that he felt he could turn in.

"Everyone has worked hard, Xiao Wang, go buy twenty watermelons and come back, today I invite everyone to eat watermelons!" Lao Ning looked at the rifle on the table, his eyes glowing with blazing light, as if he had seen an old love that had been lost for many years. People in general.

"It's beautiful, it's perfect......"

"Lao Ning, I heard that you finally made it?" A gust of fragrant wind wafted by, and Zhou Xue's slender figure floated in from outside.

"Yes, Zhou Gong, according to the improved design, the sample gun was finally built today, and the test data also met the requirements of the original design." Lao Ning said excitedly.

"yes, that's the first rifle we designed in 601."

"No, he's not just the first rifle we designed in 601, it's also the best, the most perfect rifle, our own design, China." Lao Ning's eyes flushed.

"Is it really as good as you say?" Zhou Xue walked over and grabbed the rifle in his hand.

"Double-row magazines?"

"That's right!" Lao Ning said proudly.

Zhou Xue knew that Lao Ning was working on a rifle, but she didn't know the specific situation, her main focus was on improving the use of the "Killer" No. 1, and she also had to take into account the research and development of gunpowder.

She and Lao Ning were divided into two groups, Lao Ning was responsible for firearms, and she was responsible for the design and pre-research of bazookas and artillery.

"Your design?"

"No, this design has already been used, has Zhou Gong heard of the M1 model rifle designed and produced by the Springfield Arsenal in the United States?"

"Finalized in 1936, the M1 rifle designed by the famous firearms designer John Canteus Garland, this rifle, which was officially put into production last year, was listed as the standard equipment of the United States Army, used to replace the M1903 Springfield rifle......" Zhou Xue is a treasurer.

"Zhou Gong knows a lot, yes, the rifle we designed is similar to the M1, but our design is still different from the M1."

"Although I haven't seen the M1, I have some understanding, the gun you designed seems to be a little different in the air guide device......" Zhou Xue took a closer look and seemed to find that the rifle in her hand was indeed a little different from the rifle she had seen.

"That's right, our air duct is located under the barrel, after the hammer strikes the firing needle to make the bullet fire, part of the gunpowder gas enters a small piston barrel from an air hole near the end of the barrel, pushing the piston and frame to move backwards...... "Lao Ning is naturally very familiar with his gun, which has condensed half a year's hard work.

"Lao Ning, yes, this gas guide device is very clever, it makes this gun realize automatic loading of bullets, and the shooting speed is greatly improved, but I don't know how accurate the shooting is?" Zhou Xue is also knowledgeable about firearms, and as soon as Lao Ning explained this, she immediately understood the subtlety of this gas conduction setting.

This is to make this gun realize a semi-automatic device, no need to manually throw the shell, greatly improve the shooting efficiency, on the battlefield on the enemy's fire suppression effect is very large.

And the double-row 8-round bullet steel leaky magazine, three more bullets than an ordinary rifle, which naturally forms an advantage, when the enemy has five bullets, you have to change a magazine, at this time, you still have three rounds, at this time you can play a charge.

This advantage is especially evident in urban street fighting.

"This is still done under the inspiration of the military seat, the person I admire most in my life Lao Ning is the military seat, I really don't know how he knows so much, and he can even come up with such a wonderful air conduction setting." Lao Ning said with reverence on his face.

"You said this air conduction device was designed by the cold front?"

"To be exact, it was designed under the guidance of the military seat." Lao Ning said seriously, although Leng Feng provided an idea, it was Lao Ning and his group of designers who really made it.

"How about I try a gun?"

"Zhou Gong, please!"

"Let's go to the shooting range, it's too small to be used." Zhou Xuedao.

"This is a new gun, strictly confidential, if Zhou Gong wants to go to the shooting range to test the gun, he must first notify the shooting range to clear the field, and he must ask the military seat."

"Got it, call the range and clean up the test range for us." Zhou Xue agreed, "Feiyan, call the administrative office and ask for instructions from the military seat, and say that the new rifle has been made, and we will apply for a shooting range to test the gun." ”

"Okay." Zhao Feiyan agreed.

"Zhou Gong, I'll keep this gun." Lao Ning stepped forward and said, even if Zhou Xue didn't say it, this gun would have to apply to go to the shooting range for testing.

"Mr. Shen, Zhou Gong, the shooting range said that it won't work today, there is shooting training today, it's not easy to coordinate, let's go over tomorrow."

"Tomorrow will be tomorrow."

Northern Henan Branch.

"Guoguang, what did Chairman Jiang say when he called back?"

"Naturally, he doesn't want us to take the lead in cooperating with the Soviet and Russian sides to build an aircraft factory, but the Aviation Public Committee has no money, so we have to start with Mrs." Leng Feng smiled bitterly, although he had been mentally prepared, but after being rejected, he was still a little uncomfortable.

"If it doesn't work, just let the Aviation Committee take over, Supervisor Wang is not in Moscow, let him talk directly with the Soviet and Russian sides."

"If you can't do it, you can only exchange interests." Leng Feng said, such an opportunity to meddle in the aviation industry, if it slipped away from his hands like this, he was really unwilling.

Xie Jiyuan also knows that if this aircraft factory can be built, the future will be limitless, but not everyone can enter this industry.

This is a high-precision technology, and there are few countries in the world that can completely manufacture aircraft independently, but a country as big as China must have its own aviation industry and independently design and build its own aircraft.

"Don't be discouraged, not this time, we have another time."

"I know, don't worry, we can't succeed in everything, and failure is inevitable." Leng Feng's mentality has long been exercised.

"That's good, the schedule for the unit's reorganization and training work has been sent, and all according to your intentions, the training objectives of the new First Army in the next month are mainly to improve soldiers' physical fitness and individual combat skills, supplemented by cultural training, and recruits are mainly based on cultural study, ideological education, and queue training, so as to cultivate a sense of collective consciousness and a sense of honor and mission among soldiers."

"Well, yes, our training should pay equal attention to civil and military affairs, and in addition to literacy and cultural knowledge, we should also guide the officers and men to cultivate their moral character and martial spirit, and to let them master combat skills and various survival skills."

"By the way, I heard a news, Shangfeng seems to be going to send a deputy commander to our new army, is this true?" Xie Jiyuan asked.

"Yes, the candidate for the deputy commander has not yet been decided, there are several candidates, I don't know the specifics, it is said that they are recommended by General Commander He." Leng Feng said.

The new First Army did not have a deputy commander, and Leng Feng originally wanted to promote Ju Youlin to deputy commander, but as a result, he is now the commander of the Hankou Garrison Command and the commander of the Hankou Garrison Division.

After the change of position, Ju Youlin was no longer the deputy commander of the Honorary First Division, and he had no affiliation with the New First Army.

In the new First Army, there are not no candidates who are qualified to serve as deputy commanders, but Lao Jiang greeted him, and the candidates for deputy commanders were appointed by the Military Commission.

In this way, it is difficult for Leng Feng to recommend his own person as the deputy commander.

Leng Feng also knew Lao Jiang's thoughts, he would not let him run the New First Army into a monolith, and send someone to mix it with sand for him, otherwise he would not be at ease.

However, Leng Feng is not afraid of whoever will serve as the deputy commander of the army, and the new army is not something that anyone who wants to come and intervene.

It doesn't matter who comes, the dragon has to be coiled, or the tiger has to lie down.

"Junzao, the 601 Institute called, saying that our newly designed rifle sample gun has been made, and the data monitoring is qualified, and we have applied for a shooting range test gun." Guo Weiquan pushed the door in.

"Oh, it's made?" Leng Feng was pleasantly surprised, it was not an easy task to build a gun, and he had a lot of good gun designs in his mind.

But a good gun is not necessarily easy to use, what suits you is a good gun.

A good gun is not only because it is powerful, but also because there are many factors, such as the failure rate, recoil, and even whether the butt is designed to be ergonomic and so on.

Of course, there are also manufacturing factors, whether the build is simple, easy to disassemble and wash, replace and repair, and so on.

Weight and length are also factors.

A good gun will not be suitable for everyone, but it must be very popular with a certain group of people, then the gun must be a success.

Since Li Hongzhang, a pasteur in the Qing Dynasty, started the Westernization Movement, he has mastered the skills of Yi to control the country, build guns, cannons and warships, and start the industrialization movement in modern China.

In terms of weapon manufacturing, it has cost a lot of money and manpower, and after decades of tossing, there is still no weapon that can be used, but the old foundation is too poor, although it can produce some light weapons, but it is basically two or three generations behind others.

The best rifle made in China now is the imitation of the German Mauser 98 made in the formal, but before the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese war, this rifle has not been fully equipped with its most elite German armament troops, (only half of the rifles of the three main divisions of the German armament are the Zhongzheng or the Mauser 98 imported from Germany, and the remaining half is still the Hanyang-made Type 88 rifle).

If the steel is not qualified, you can't make a qualified barrel, you can't make a good gun, the equipment is not advanced enough, the yield rate is low, and the service life of the gun is low......

Needless to say, scientific research and design ability, there is not a single Chinese who can be called a master of firearms design.

Even the imitation Zhongzheng rifle is not named after the gunsmith, and the foreign gunsmith is named after the designer.

Among all light weapons, rifles are the most used and manufactured light weapons, and almost every military power attaches importance to the development and manufacture of individual weapons.

Among them, "rifles" are the most important.

A good gun is very important for a warrior, and an ordinary warrior can use a good gun to defeat an opponent who is stronger than himself.

Similarly, if you are a master, the quality of the weapon can determine the outcome of the battle, and even determine the outcome of a battle or war.

Why is it that the national military is always defeated on the frontal battlefield, and a defeat is the kind of defeat that is a thousand miles away?

In addition to the gap in the quality of soldiers, the gap in weapons is also extremely huge.

The weapons used by the soldiers of the National Army are mainly Hanyang-made or some other earthen guns, which have a short range and low shooting accuracy, while the Japanese Army's Type 38 rifle not only has a long range and high shooting accuracy, but the disadvantage is that it is not very lethal, but this is not too obvious for the National Army. (How to play with an effective range of 200 meters and 400 meters?) )

The formal rifle is no worse than the Type 38, but the number of equipment is small!

If the New First Army was not all Japanese equipment, it would not be able to gain superiority in frontal positional warfare against Japan.

It's people who fight, but weapons are sometimes really important.

Therefore, the new army needs to keep a new type of rifle, although the formal performance is good, but Leng Feng really can't look down on it, and it's not interesting to copy others.

With the technical capabilities of the new army and the actual needs, a simple, easy-to-operate semi-automatic rifle is the first choice.

The M1 Garand rifle is the most suitable, this rifle has been included in the standard equipment of the US Army, but its design is not completely finalized, and it has a number of shortcomings.

Leng Feng's guidance to Lao Ning is the improved design of the M1 Garand rifle, although the designer is still Garand, but Leng Feng has made improvements on his basis (in chronological order), so this rifle is a new rifle in a sense, even if it borrows the design of the M1.

During World War II, the classic semi-automatic rifle "Edge" was born.
