Headquarters.

Staff.

Staff Officer Mo heard the report, and his tone was a little surprised:

"Li Yunlong is here again?"

He touched his chin and pondered, "What is this kid doing now?" Didn't you hand in a large number of grenades and artillery and shells before? Did you get something good again? ”

"I don't know."

The reporting staff officer shook his head: "But looking at the transport team he brought, there are a lot of supplies." ”

"This kid is not bad, he just gave a large number of grenades and four-door ninety-two types before, and now he has sent weapons and ammunition."

Staff Officer Mo was very satisfied with Li Yunlong.

The staff officer who reported glanced at Staff Officer Mo, his mouth moved, and he did not speak.

There are quite a few staff officers at the headquarters, each with its own responsibilities, and he is responsible for handing over to Li Yunlong's brigade, so it is very clear that although the brigade headquarters over there said on the surface that Li Yunlong took the initiative to hand it over, so as to provide cover for Li Yunlong, in fact, it ·····

"I don't know what good things this kid has come this time?"

Staff Officer Mo tapped his fingers on the table.

·······

"I don't know what good things I brought with me this time?"

Logistics.

Greeting the good people and preparing to greet Li Yunlong, Zhang Wanhe walked towards the door, and couldn't help but think about it in his heart.

His logistics department has been getting better recently, the output of several weapons and ammunition factories has been rising, the reserves of bullets, grenades and other reserves can be said to be the highest in the history of the troops, and some raw materials, especially steel, have also appeared in stock.

The troops are getting stronger and stronger, and there are more and more devil steels brought in, and he can't consume them.

But after all, the army has a big business, and his small workshop, the overall situation, is a drop in the bucket.

No matter what Li Yunlong brings.

Bullets, grenades, shells, grain, and even wooden ammunition boxes he had to ······ In short, Li Yunlong will receive whatever he gives, and he will never be soft.

As for Li Yunlong's request, it doesn't matter if he can do it or not, let's fool around first.

It's just that Zhang Wanhe is really curious.

According to the intention of the previous two regiment commanders, half a month ago, Grand Master Li handed over a batch of supplies, and the quantity was quite a lot, totaling more than 60,000 grenades, four Type 92 guns, plus thousands of artillery shells.

That's not a small amount, it adds up to almost a hundred tons.

In half a month, it is impossible for this kid to get a batch of weapons and ammunition again, and he hasn't heard any big moves from Li Yunlong recently, so what good things did he bring?

It must be a good thing to be able to run to his side.

Before, he gave his superiors grenades and cannons, so this time he was only given machine guns, rifles, bullets and cartridge casings? Or are they mortars and shells? And then used to change talents?

Thinking of this, Zhang Wanhe suddenly sighed secretly in his heart.

Things are good, they can solve a big problem in the army, but after all, it is given by others, it is a tree without roots, and there will be a day when it will be consumed, and the most important thing is to improve the production level of your own side.

Guns, ammunition and cannons were all made in-house.

It's just that this road ahead is long and difficult.

It has been four years since the establishment of the arsenal in the second year of the Anti-Japanese War, and the maximum daily output of his largest arsenal is 10,000 rounds, which cannot be maintained, and if you want to meet the consumption of the whole army, you need to produce at least hundreds of thousands of rounds per day.

Shells are currently sufficient, although there is a serious shortage of self-production, but there are many stocks of high-quality copper shells, and they are delivered by various units every day.

The main problem is that the supply of materials is seriously insufficient, many materials can only be produced by hand in local workshops, the output is extremely low, and the quality is difficult to guarantee, such as propellant and bullet primer, and yellow explosives.

Anyway, life is getting better, so take your time.

Sighing again, he cheered himself up, he walked out of the door and looked at Li Yunlong's transport team almost at the door, his eyes focused on the wooden boxes on the carriage, the familiar size made Zhang Wanhe feel both happy and a little regretful.

Judging by the size of the box, it should be small arms and bullets.

A good thing is a good thing, but it's a pity...

sighed in his heart, and before he could speak, Zhang Wanhe saw Li Yunlong rushing in by himself, not polite at all, sitting on the chair, picking up the tea on the table and simmering it.

"Hey, hey, hey..."

After a sip of tea, Grand Master Li smiled:

"It's rare, it's the first time I've come here with tea to greet you."

"Hahaha..."

Zhang Wanhe was amused by Li Yunlong, and did not answer, but with a smile on his face, he commanded the soldiers of the Logistics Department to entertain the soldiers of the Independent Regiment: "Go, prepare tea for the soldiers of the Independent Regiment and take them to rest." ”

After that, he sat next to Li Yunlong and looked at Li Yunlong with a smile.

Without him to speak, Li Yunlong would definitely find a topic to talk about himself.

This process, after so many times, he can't be more ripe.

Grand Master Li is not only thick-skinned, but also a human spirit, and his ability to observe words and expressions is a must, and he soon noticed that something was wrong with Zhang Wanhe's expression, squinted his eyes, thought for a moment, and suddenly said:

"I said Zhang Wanhe, what's wrong with you?"

"Sad."

"Just by virtue of the relationship between the two of us, tell me what difficulties you have, brother, our Lao Li still has some ability, maybe he can solve it for you."

"Huh..."

This dog thing is much smaller than Lao Tzu, and he also calls himself an old brother····· Zhang Wanhe sneered and said:

"What's the problem?"

"It's not the same old questions."

"Didn't you say before that the grenades we produce here are not as powerful as the devil's melon grenades, with little power and poor explosion power? Sometimes only one sound can be heard, and the explosion can only be broken into two pieces. ”

"I don't want to do this either, but there are no raw materials, I can't produce enough yellow explosives here, so I can only replace them with black powder, the ammunition loading lacks equipment, and the technology is not up to par, even black powder, we stuff less than others."

"Isn't it possible to produce grenades now? The front-line troops reacted, and the quasi-head was getting better, but it was still the same, with poor power and few fragments, and sometimes the devil couldn't be killed if he hit. ”

"You have the ability to help me solve the matter of raw materials."

Every time Zhang Wanhe mentioned this, he felt aggrieved.

It's not that he doesn't work hard, in order to solve the problem of explosives, he can be said to have tried his best, but without factory machinery and equipment, no chemical raw materials, no coal chemical plant, it is really difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

In the end, it can only be made by local methods, and the natural output and quality are much worse than those of the national government, let alone devils.

Sure enough... Li Yunlong praised himself in his heart and said:

"Hey."

"What do I think is the matter?"

"Isn't that the raw material for explosives?"

"It's simple, brother, I'll get you a batch."

"Really?"

Zhang Wanhe's eyes lit up, and then he was a little suspicious: "Don't you fool me?" ”

Now that there is a war in Europe, there is a global shortage of raw materials for explosives, and all countries are exporting them directly, and the government can't buy them if they want to, but Li Yunlong, a businessman, is afraid that he can get a little ·····

The cannonballs produced by him are all high-end goods like Hei Suojin, which are high-end goods that Europe and the United States dare not use casually.

"How many can you get? Can you get ten tons? ”

Zhang Wanhe's tone was nervous.

He didn't want much, as long as he could produce ten tons of high-quality explosives, it was enough, and he didn't need black gold or yellow explosives.

Good steel is used on the blade, and these high-quality explosives are loaded into grenade grenades and mortar shells, and the troops can fight much more smoothly, and there will be no obvious hits on the enemy, but the enemy is not killed.

As for the grenades, let's make do with black powder first.

"Ten tons?"

Li Yunlong smiled and raised his head:

"Take you to the world"

"See the world, don't you..."

Zhang Wanhe had a faint idea in his heart.

······

At the same time.

Independent Regiment, Shou County.

Wang Gensheng was dressed in civilian clothes, dressed like a peasant, with a ten-shot barge gun pinned to his waist, and five soldiers in the same costume beside him, carrying rags and wrapping them, looking from a distance, like a group of fleeing victims.

"Do you have the map?"

Looking at Wang Gensheng and the others who were about to set off, Zhao Gang admonished.

"Brought it."

Wang Gensheng patted the package on his shoulder.

"Okay."

Zhao Gang nodded, his tone satisfied:

"Follow the route on the map, as well as the marked points, go through them, and go through those caves and cols to see where they are suitable for hiding materials and where they are suitable for concealing troops."

"This mission is very difficult, try to explore the road in advance, make good preparations, and it will be easier to deal with accidents when the time comes."

"Yes."

Wang Gensheng's tone was unusually solemn.

Sixty days until the next mission.

This mission was the most difficult he had ever had.

Sixty days later, he, Zhang Dabiao and Wang Gensheng will lead a team of 100 people to Banqiao Town, Huaihe River, more than 700 kilometers away, to ambush the devil's naval transport ship and recapture three tons of gold.

It's not easy to come back with gold.

"Stay safe and let's go."

Zhao Gang finally admonished.

As the most elite scout of the Independent Regiment, he was quite relieved.

"Yes."

Subsequently, Wang Gensheng took five selected elite soldiers and walked south.

······

Headquarters.

Logistics.

Zhang Wanhe looked at the dense wooden boxes in front of him and muttered to himself, his tone was all incredulous.

"This, this, this..."

He touched the boxes in his hand, and he couldn't say anything.

As the head of the logistics department and the management of the arsenal, of course he knew this, after all, there was a mark on the outside of the wooden box, indicating what was inside.

This is an important raw material for the production of yellow explosives, and it is only one process away from the final product, although there are still some materials missing, but those that are poor can be manufactured in other arsenals, and because the raw materials are easy to obtain, the output is not low.

In this way, one case of this material can produce one and a half boxes of explosives.

And here...

Zhang Wanhe looked up, and the whole row of carriages in front of him were full of wooden boxes of the same type.

"Well, not bad."

On the side, Li Yunlong looked at Zhang Wanhe's appearance and smiled proudly.

"All of these?"

Zhang Wanhe swallowed his saliva with difficulty.

Originally, he thought that these were just bullet boxes, but he didn't expect that they would be ·····

"Yes, this is the first batch, fifty tons."

Li Yunlong replied.

"The first batch."

"Fifty tons."

Zhang Wanhe's eyes widened instantly, his throat moved again, and he asked in a difficult tone, "Then, how many in total?" ”

Although not all of them are raw materials for the production of explosives, and there are some propellants, the explosives materials account for the majority, and they can produce almost 60 tons of yellow explosives, and each grenade grenade needs 80 grams of explosives, so this batch alone can produce more than 700,000 high-quality grenades.

Even the production of self-produced 82 mortar shells filled with half a kilogram of explosives is enough for 120,000 pieces.

"Four hundred tons."

Li Yunlong held up four fingers and smiled very rampantly.

"Four hundred tons."

Taking a deep breath, a series of numbers appeared in Zhang Wanhe's mind.

Then, he said categorically:

"What do you want?"

I want to decide on this batch of explosives raw materials, no matter what you Li Yunlong wants, as long as it is in the army, even if I can't be the master, I will pull down my face and ask the boss, and I will get it for you when I go to the border area.

"Hey, hey, hey..."

Li Yunlong was not in a hurry, he continued to beckon Zhang Wanhe to come to the back row of board cars and said: "Don't be in a hurry, let's take a look at this thing first, be careful of the steel pipe extruder, what is this?" ”

"What?"

What Li Yunlong didn't expect was that Zhang Wanhe jumped up suddenly, grabbed Li Yunlong's hand, his face was a little hideous, and even a few hairs stood up: "What did you say?" What is it? You repeat. ”

This sudden expression startled Li Yunlong:

"Pipe extruder."

It seems that this thing is very valuable... Zhang Wanhe's rare expression made Li Yunlong a little shocked, and then he asked curiously, "What is this thing for?" Do you make gun barrels? ”

"Pipe extruder?"

Zhang Wanhe's hands began to tremble a little, he took a deep breath, and he suppressed the excitement in his heart: "The barrel is not good, the extruder can't make a rifle barrel, it can only make a shotgun barrel." ”

"And our materials are not up to par, not good at making gun barrels."

"What's the use of that?"

Grand Master Li frowned, he thought it was a gun barrel.

"It's very useful."

Zhang Wanhe glanced at Li Yunlong, opened the outer package by himself, and found a note from the inside and said: "This thing can make mortar barrels, and can make grenadier barrels." ”

"It can also make pipes and some basic machine parts."

"This caliber is also very suitable."

Looking at the manual, Zhang Wanhe kept nodding.

Compared with the headquarters arsenal that lacks machinery and equipment, this is equivalent to a weakened version of the industrial machine tool.

"Moreover, the production of mortar barrels is fast and of good quality."

"It's fast, it's good."

Li Yunlong raised his eyebrows.

He doesn't know anything about ordnance production, but there are some situations that he still understands, for example, the technology of manufacturing mortars in the headquarters arsenal has long been broken through, but the difficulty is that the barrel manufacturing speed cannot keep up, and the quality is still poor, and it is very easy to be damaged and exploded or cracks in the barrel.

"With this thing."

Zhang Wanhe took a deep look at Li Yunlong: "I can increase the production speed of grenadiers and 60 mortars by more than five times."
