The rise of great powers: starting from military industry

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

Everyone gathered in the square.

At this time, a commendation meeting was being held.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Liu Tao, who was wearing a big red flower on his chest and holding a certificate in his hand.

Praise from the provincial military industry system!

This is the greatest honor Panshan Machinery Factory has ever received since its establishment.

Liu Tao had a bright smile on his face and was happy from the bottom of his heart.

Although the time was short, the superiors gave such a high honor, which means that it was temporarily named "Type 78 Pistol" and was recognized by the troops and superiors.

In addition to the certificate, there was also a reward of one thousand yuan.

One thousand yuan is definitely a huge sum of money in this era.

It is nearly three years' salary for an ordinary worker.

Of course, Liu Tao ate, lived and wore the same clothes in Panshan Machinery Factory, and actually spent almost no money.

Everyone looked at Liu Tao with envy. At this time, Liu Tao was the most beautiful boy in the factory.

"Comrades, everyone must learn from Comrade Liu Tao, work hard, strive hard, and fight for the rise of the motherland's military industry." Wang Tiezhu called on everyone to learn from Liu Tao.

The commendation meeting ended quickly.

Liu Tao put down the honor, which was a thing of the past.

Now he needed to get the design drawings of the new automatic rifle done.

In addition, he had to build the molds for the various parts of this automatic rifle.

Explain the design indicators and processes to the technicians!

Liu Tao was busier than before.

The rifle production workshop and assembly workshop gradually resumed production.

At first, the speed was very slow, and only a few new automatic rifles were produced a day.

Slowly, the production efficiency gradually improved.

The design drawings of the entire set of new automatic rifles have been kept confidential by the confidentiality department at the highest level. Except for Liu Tao and Wang Tiezhu, no one else can view the design drawings, not even the deputy factory director.

In a blink of an eye, a few days passed.

One hundred new automatic rifles have been produced.

The number of the new automatic rifle has reached 100.

At this time, the shooting range is conducting gun testing.

Liu, the head of the 119th Regiment, and Wang, the political commissar, personally brought a company here.

The one who is close to the water gets the moon first. Now the whole 119th Regiment has been equipped with the new pistols at the platoon level, becoming the first to replace the new pistols in the 40th Division.

The 78-type pistol is loved by the officers and soldiers.

It is precisely because of this that after receiving the news, Commander Liu and Political Commissar Wang came in person.

A platoon in the factory is under the jurisdiction of both the factory director and the 119th Regiment.

If the new automatic rifle is really that good, then there is no doubt that the 119th Regiment will replace the new automatic rifle first.

No commander does not want his troops to be equipped with good guns to improve the combat effectiveness of the troops.

At this time, a hundred targets have been set up in the shooting range.

One hundred soldiers, each holding a new automatic rifle.

"Captain Liu, this new automatic rifle is powerful, accurate, stable, reliable, and easy to maintain. More importantly, its life span reaches 20,000 rounds, and one magazine has 30 rounds of bullets. Each gun is equipped with 4 magazines, which is 120 rounds of bullets." Liu Tao introduced.

Automatic rifles are different from pistols.

It is very difficult and takes a long time to get approval from the superiors or even pass the national review.

However, if it is recognized by the troops and influenced by the troops, it will be different.

The users are full of praise, why are you sitting in the office still comparing it?

It is precisely based on this consideration that the expert group organized by the superiors will arrive at the factory tomorrow, and the people of the 119th Regiment will arrive first.

"We will know whether the gun is good or not after a test!" said the head of the regiment.

Political Commissar Wang said: "Then let's start testing the gun now."

"Well, let's start!"

The test gun began.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!".

As the test gun command was issued, the soldiers pulled the trigger, the muzzle fire snake spewed, and the whole shooting range was filled with gunshots.

Each soldier will shoot 4 magazines, that is, 120 rounds of bullets.

Usually in the army, everyone is dismissed, and shooting is just a few bullets.

Now it is rare to be able to shoot openly, and the soldiers are so happy.

Liu Tao looked at this scene and felt sad in his heart.

In this era, China is really too poor. A soldier can only shoot a few bullets in a year of training.

In contrast, each American soldier shoots a thousand bullets a year in peacetime.

It is said that in the next war, Chinese soldiers will use an average of 1,200 bullets to kill a monkey. Although this is related to the battlefield environment, once the soldiers are on the battlefield, they are extremely shocked by the real killing scene, which leads to unstable psychological quality when shooting, shooting randomly, shooting randomly, and shooting at the slightest movement. However, it is also related to the lack of shooting training in normal times.

The ammunition depot is not without bullets.

However, the bullets in the ammunition depot are mainly used to prepare for war, and the troops are used to thrift and are reluctant to spend lavishly.

Like now shooting, one hundred automatic rifles, four magazines, each person shoots 120 bullets, which is 12,000 bullets.

Don’t look at the number of bullets. If you really use them lavishly, the consumption is extremely shocking.

"Captain, this gun is a good gun." The company commander 'Deng Qiang' personally shot, shot four magazines, and said excitedly.

Deng Qiang has been a soldier for ten years. He is a very good soldier as he can be a company commander.

You'll know if a gun is good or not as soon as you hit it.

"Come on, let me and the political commissar give it a try too." Captain Liu said with a smile on his face.

Commander Liu was very happy and trusting of the enthusiastic response from his soldiers.

Soldiers know best whether a gun is good or not.

"Political Commissar, how about we try this gun on target shooting together?" Captain Liu looked at Political Commissar Wang.

Political Commissar Wang is also an old man in the army. He has been in the army for more than 20 years and his marksmanship is very good.

"Okay, let's try this gun together today." Political Commissar Wang said with a smile.

The two took the gun from the soldier, the magazine already loaded with bullets.

Then the two started shooting.

Liu Tao held the telescope and secretly sighed in his heart.

"My dear, their marksmanship is so accurate. They are both sharpshooters." Liu Tao saw it. The first shot of the two of them hit the eighth ring.

You know, it was the first time for the two of them to touch this gun. With their hands raw, they hit the eight rings at once.

Soon, both of them hit the tenth ring.

This is simply incredible.

"Yes, yes, it's a good gun!" Commander Liu praised: "Political Commissar, how are you doing? What do you think?"

Political Commissar Wang said: "It is indeed a good gun. Not to mention it is better than the previous Type 63 automatic rifle. Even the previous 56 semi-automatic rifle is not as good as this gun."

"We must respond to the leadership. Our regiment can serve as an experimental group for this new gun." Political Commissar Wang's eyes flashed.

If this automatic rifle is replaced, there is no doubt that the firepower of the entire regiment will be improved, and the combat effectiveness will also be improved a lot.

The 40th Division is an infantry division. The 119th Regiment is also an infantry regiment. The rifle is the most important weapon. The performance of the rifle determines the firepower and combat effectiveness of the regiment to a large extent.

In the army, although inheritance is also important, the most important thing is combat effectiveness.

Those with strong combat effectiveness are the main group and the ace group. Those with average combat effectiveness are the reserve groups. When there are missions, they can't get meat and can only drink soup.
