Chapter 199 Tank Factory
Light weapons R&D factory, inside the research room.
Zhao Tianyang looked at Liu Guifu and many key workers below and preached slowly.
"In order to enable the Kuomintang and the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army to adhere to the principle of united resistance, the commander ordered us to develop more and more powerful weapons."
"At the same time, because of the tight time schedule and heavy workload, I will not hold any seminars."
As he spoke, he began to draw pictures of weapons and various data on the blackboard.
After a while, Zhao Tianyang pointed to the first picture of a pistol and said.
"Pistol, caliber 5.8mm, effective range 50 meters, shooting mode semi-automatic."
"The frame is made of polymer material, the barrel adopts short-recoil automatic principle, and the barrel rotates to lock the mechanism."
After saying that, he looked at the silent crowd and said with a smile: "I know that it is a bit difficult to meet the above requirements."
"But as long as we make this gun, it will mean that our pistol craftsmanship has reached the forefront of the world. Do you have confidence?"
"Have!"
Everyone shouted in unison.
Liu Guifu even patted his chest and assured on the spot: "Don't worry, Minister, it's just a pistol. I've wanted to try it for a long time."
"very good."
Zhao Tianyang nodded with satisfaction and pointed to the second picture.
"Submachine guns are relatively simple. They have a simple structure, a large number of stamped parts, and are welded together. The entire gun only needs nine parts to be made."
"Boy, that's easy enough."
Liu Guifu said with a smile: "Minister, I can make this submachine gun in one day."
"Give me a week to adjust the production line and we can start mass production."
"Haha, no."
Zhao Tianyang shook his head: "I am planning to equip the troops with this submachine gun on a large scale."
"You can't simply adjust the production line. You have to build me a submachine gun production line and a bullet production line."
"what!"
Liu Guifu scratched his head and said, "This is also possible. The machine needed to make this submachine gun is also simple, but it may take two weeks."
"It's okay, we have more than a month!"
After saying that, Zhao Tianyang threw away the chalk and said, "Okay, your task is to develop these two weapons and build a production line within one and a half months."
"Leave it to me."
After Zhao Tianyang left, Liu Guifu walked up to the podium and began to assign tasks to his workers.
Ansai District, inside the cannon factory.
While watching the workers handling a red-hot iron pipe, Zhao Tianyang asked Gong Jiahong beside him.
"How is the research on the 88mm anti-aircraft gun that I gave you?"
"I have almost figured it out. I have given the steel data to the steel mill. Once they produce the right steel, we can try production."
"very good."
Zhao Tianyang smiled with satisfaction and said, "The situation has changed now. I require you to design a tank gun based on the 88mm anti-aircraft gun while producing it."
"Tank gun?"
Gong Jiahong said in embarrassment: "I have never done it!"
"It's easy, I'll teach you."
Zhao Tianyang took out a piece of paper and a pencil and started explaining while drawing on the paper.
"As for the tank gun, we just need to remove the moving device of the 88 gun and leave only the gun barrel and the recoil brake.
Looking at the long cannon on the paper, Gong Jiahong suddenly realized: "So this is a tank gun! I understand, leave it to me!"
"Row."
Zhao Tianyang handed the paper with the tank gun on it to Gong Jiahong: "Then I'll leave it to you. If you have any difficulties, just come to me."
After arranging the tank gun, Zhao Tianyang turned around and went to the engine factory next door.
"Why are you here, Minister?"
The engine factory's deputy director, Wang Bensan, asked curiously.
"How is it? Are you still used to it?"
Zhao Tianyang asked with a smile.
Wang Bensan is an old employee of the engine factory. Ever since Yu Xiaping was transferred to Ningxia by Zhao Tianyang to manage the aircraft factory.
He was promoted to deputy director and was in charge of the engine factory.
"Okay!"
Wang Bensan touched his head a little embarrassedly: "It's just that I suddenly became everyone's backbone. Sometimes I'm really not used to it."
"Hahaha, you!"
Zhao Tianyang patted Wang Bensan on the shoulder and said, "Take your time. I'm not used to being a leader yet."
"hey-hey...."
Wang Bensan smiled foolishly, not knowing how to respond.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore."
Zhao Tianyang asked with a smile: "Since the workers who made airplanes and airships were transferred away."
“Are the only people left at the engine factory who make armored vehicles and those who make engines?”
"Yes."
Wang Ben replied three times.
"Well, you count the workers who make armored vehicles and move them to the new factory west of the steel mill."
Zhao Tianyang ordered.
“The 45-acre factory?”
Wang Bensan said in surprise.
"Yes."
Zhao Tianyang nodded: "That will be the tank factory in the future, and armored vehicles will also be moved there for production."
"also."
Wang Bensan breathed a sigh of relief: "To be honest, Minister, it's not easy to balance the two departments every day."
"Now that the people from the armored vehicle department have moved away, I can relax a little."
"Haha, then go quickly."
Zhao Tianyang smiled faintly and urged.
Soon, the workers who were making armored vehicles took their machines and various materials and got on the tractors for transportation.
Went to the tank factory ten miles away.
At the same time, two young men also walked out of the Yan'an airport, got on the tractor waiting nearby, and drove towards Baota District, Yaodian Town.
"Minister, that's the dormitory!"
At the tank factory, the workers who had just got off the tractors looked at the huge factory in front of them, which still exuded a faint smell of green paint, and asked Zhao Tianyang who was standing beside them.
"Everyone come here."
Hearing this, Zhao Tianyang clapped his hands, attracting the workers' attention.
"Listen carefully, that three-story building on the left is the dormitory. Don't say I didn't take care of you. This is a new type of dormitory, with eight people in one room!"
"Oh my god, eight people in one room?"
Everyone was a little excited. In the past, due to the tight living conditions, they all lived in bunk beds in a bunk house.
Dozens or even twenty people were crowded together, and they were all doing heavy work and sweating a lot. Only those who had experienced it could understand how it felt.
Regardless of the workers' excitement, Zhao Tianyang continued his introduction.
"Ten meters in front of the dormitory is the kitchen. There is water there so you can wash up. Twenty meters to the left of the kitchen is the bathhouse, and next to the bathhouse is the toilet."
"Also, do you see those three big workshops in the middle?"
"I saw it."
The workers answered in unison.
"That's where you'll be working. After you go back to the dormitory and put your personal belongings away, move the machine in and install it for me."
“There is a large warehouse behind the workshop where the materials are stored.”
After introducing the situation of the factory, Zhao Tianyang disbanded the team and asked the workers to put their personal belongings away first.
"Report, Tian Jinchen, Niu Erli is here to report."
At this time, two voices came.
