Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

The jeep was driving very fast, and Song Lian rushed to the military factory at lightning speed. As soon as he got off the car, he hurried to the second floor with his briefcase.

"Old leader, old leader, look what I brought you?"

Just as he pushed the door open breathlessly, he saw the old leader looking at him with angry eyes.

"go out!"

Song Lian was startled for a moment. He looked at his old leader, then at an old man in military uniform who was smiling at him. Suddenly, he stammered, "Old... old... commander?"

"Go out and knock on the door again!"

At this moment, the old leader suddenly became angry and threw a pen at hand directly at Song Lian.

"Okay, Xiao Zhang, since Xiao Song is here, let him in!"

The old man on the side spoke at this time.

"Humph, that kid got a bargain!"

Hearing the teacher speak, Zhang Yuan didn't know what to say. He glared at Song Lian and said, "What are you still looking at? Didn't you hear what the teacher said? Come in now!"

"oh oh!"

Song Lian felt as if he was dreaming and walked in dazed.

"Come on, what's the matter that made you so noisy that you even ran in without knocking?"

Zhang Yuan looked at Song Lian with dissatisfaction, as if to say that if Song Lian didn't have a reasonable excuse, he would be punished.

After hearing what his old leader said, Song Lian suddenly remembered his purpose and quickly said, "Old leader, Master Zhou's design drawings are out!"

As he spoke, he hurriedly took out a pile of drawings from his briefcase and handed them to Zhang Yuan.

"It's out, so soon?"

Zhang Yuan took the drawings from Song Lian's hand with some disbelief and started to look at them. He remembered that he had sent someone to give Master Zhou the technical drawings of the SKS semi-automatic rifle that he had requested from Big Brother the day before yesterday. He did not expect that Master Zhou had already drawn the drawings only one day later.

As Zhang Yuan started looking at the blueprints, he had no time to pay attention to Song Lian and the old man in military uniform beside him.

Song Lian was different. He felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by the teacher. He couldn't help but touch his head and look at the teacher, not knowing whether he should salute or how to greet him.

Perhaps noticing Song Lian's reservedness, the old man smiled at him and said, "Xiao Song, I remember you, but you were a little red devil back then. I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, you have grown up!"

"Hey, teacher, I remember you too!"

When Song Lian heard that the teacher remembered him, he was so excited that he was at a loss.

"Okay, don't be so reserved in front of me. Tell me, what's going on with your leader?"

The old man looked at Zhang Yuan who was still immersed in the drawings and asked curiously.

"Teacher, it's like this!"

When Song Lian heard the teacher's question, he naturally told him without hiding anything about how his old leader discovered Zhou Tian, ​​wanted to transfer him to the military factory, and later asked Zhou Tian to develop weapons.

After saying this, he looked at the old leader with some disdain, feeling that the old leader's attitude towards him just now seemed a bit like abandoning the donkey after it has served its purpose.

At this time, after hearing what Song Lian said, the old man couldn't help but be slightly surprised. As Zhang Yuan's teacher, he knew that this subordinate was a very proud person.

But he didn't expect that this proud subordinate would have to ask for help from others one day, and the person he asked was a master chef named Zhou Tian.

But speaking of Zhou Tian, ​​he always seemed to feel that the name sounded very familiar. Suddenly, he remembered where he had heard the name, and immediately asked: "Xiao Song, the Zhou Tian you are talking about is Master Zhou Tian from the steel rolling mill, so what about the Zhou Tian who developed the horizontal lathe?"

"Yes!"

Song Lian nodded.

"It turned out to be that kid. I didn't expect that kid not only has a good talent in mechanics, but also has achievements in weapons. Not bad, not bad!"

The old man got Song Lian's confirmation. Even if he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that there were such geniuses in the world. However, he was not too surprised about this. Just like Mr. Qian, wasn't he such a genius?

But Zhou Tian is younger.

"Great! Great, I didn't expect that firearms could be improved in this way, great! It's really eye-opening, really eye-opening!"

At this moment, Zhang Yuan suddenly exclaimed loudly. Just as he said that, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked up and saw that the head teacher and Song Lian on the side were looking at him with strange eyes.

He finally reacted and said to the teacher with an apologetic look: "Teacher, I'm sorry, I lost my composure because I saw that the gun design was too exquisite!"

"Okay, no need to apologize. Xiao Song has already told me. Xiao Zhang, is your gun design really that good?"

You should know that although Zhang Yuan is his old subordinate, he is not an illiterate and uncultured man. He is a talent who studied in Bald Eagle before liberation.

Otherwise, he would not be allowed to manage the military factory.

"Of course, sir, let me tell you, if we can produce according to this blueprint, the performance of the rifle produced will not be weaker than the M1 Garand rifle, and it may even be a few points more advanced! However, this bullet is a 7.62x39mm intermediate power bullet, so we need to modify the bullet production line in the workshop!"

The old man certainly knows about the M1 Garand rifle, which is a gas-operated semi-automatic rifle developed by Bald Eagle in the 20s.

The rifle is 1107 mm long, with a barrel length of 610 mm and an empty weight of 4.31 kg. It uses 7.62x63 mm rifle bullets and uses 8-round clips or 20-round magazines. Its initial velocity is 865 m/s and its effective range is 750 m.

It is even the main combat equipment in the Bald Eagle Army. It has high accuracy, fast rate of fire, reliability and durability, and is highly praised by the Bald Eagle Army.

And now what Zhang Yuan said was that if he had a rifle blueprint in his hand, if it was manufactured, it would not be even weaker than the M1 Garand rifle. This made him unable to believe it for a moment.

"really?"

Although the old man believed that his old subordinates would not deceive him, he still didn't know why and didn't dare to believe it, so he asked again.

"it is true!"

Seeing that the teacher didn't believe him, Zhang Yuan nodded heavily again to confirm.

"So what are you waiting for? Let's go get someone to make one and give it a try!"

As the old man spoke, he didn't care about anything else and directly pulled Zhang Yuan outside.

"Teacher, wait for me!"

Song Lian, who was left behind, was stunned for a moment, and immediately shouted and chased after him.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the workshop of the military factory, found the workshop director, handed him the drawings, and asked him to find someone to process the parts as soon as possible.

As expected of a military factory, in less than three hours, a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle and some 7.62x39mm intermediate-power bullets were completed.

The three of them took the Type 56 semi-automatic rifles and bullets to the shooting range behind the military factory and started the experiment directly.

The old man was the first to pick up the newly processed Type 56 semi-automatic rifle and inspected it skillfully, his eyes revealing anticipation and excitement.

"Let me try first!" the old man said, loading the bullet, quickly adjusting his posture, aiming at the target in the distance, taking a deep breath, and then decisively pulling the trigger. With a "bang", the bullet flew out, and a bullet hole instantly appeared on the target in the distance.

Zhang Yuan and Song Lian hurried over to check and found that the shot hit the bull's eye.

"What a great gun! What a great gun!" the old man couldn't help but exclaimed, "This accuracy and power are really surprising!"

Zhang Yuan was also eager to try, so he took the rifle, loaded the bullet, and fired a shot after carefully aiming according to the old man's posture and movements. Although this shot did not hit the bull's eye like the old man, it also achieved a good result.

Song Lian was itching to try his luck as he watched from the sidelines. After Zhang Yuan finished shooting, he couldn't wait to pick up the gun. However, as he was too nervous, his first shot missed the target.

"Don't be anxious, stay calm!" the old man encouraged.

Song Lian took a few deep breaths, adjusted his mentality, and aimed and shot again. This time, the bullet finally hit the target accurately.

"Haha, not bad, not bad!" Everyone laughed happily.

"With this gun, the combat effectiveness of our troops will be greatly improved!" the old man said excitedly, "We must quickly arrange for large-scale production so that all soldiers can use it!"

Zhang Yuan and Song Lian nodded. They knew very well what kind of changes this gun would bring to the army. Especially now that the country was still in a fierce battle with the Bald Eagle on the Peninsula, if there were such guns, it would be a huge boost to the army's combat effectiveness.

But Zhang Yuan was still relatively sober.

"But sir, we just tested the 100-meter target, and I think that's probably not the limit of this gun. We need to continue testing!"

The teacher, who was originally excited, calmed down immediately after hearing this. He nodded and said, "I am a little anxious. Let's continue the experiment as soon as possible and finalize it as soon as possible. By the way, is this really what Master Zhou Tian researched?"
