Chapter 432 Simplified version of 107 rocket launcher?
After seeing off Commander Yang and his entourage, Gu Changfeng once again devoted his energy to the development of the independent brigade.
Now that there is still some time before spring plowing, Gu Changfeng mobilized the masses to help renovate the Xianyaling base.
Digging underground warehouses, building and expanding military camps, and training troops were all carried out almost at the same time.
Then there are the arsenal and gunpowder factory. After being renovated, the two factories have expanded several times on their original basis, especially the arsenal.
After the bullet production line was in place, Li Mingshan led the arsenal staff to start production day and night.
It is worth mentioning that Tang Shengzhi knew very well what Gu Changfeng lacked, and this time he sent him a lot of talents in this area, who were assigned to the arsenal and gunpowder factory together.
A few days passed in a flash, and Gu Changfeng came to the arsenal to check the situation.
"Brigade Commander, long time no see," Li Mingshan greeted Gu Changfeng with a smile when he saw him coming.
The news that the independent regiment was reorganized into the 3rd Independent Brigade of the 8th Division of the National Revolutionary Army had spread throughout Gaojia Town, and he, as the director of the arsenal, was naturally aware of it.
Gu Changfeng smiled when he saw Li Mingshan with a dark face. This guy was a handsome student when he first came here, and after so much time, he finally looks a bit manly.
"Mingshan, let's go. Take me to the arsenal to see the production situation and introduce it to me."
Afterwards, the group walked into the huge arsenal, which was now divided into two areas.
The first is to study the 107 rocket launcher and imitate its manufacture.
Of course, because the war has started, we are still in the exploratory stage.
The second point is naturally bullet production. After a period of familiarity, the students have two bullet production lines and can now produce 30,000 bullets a day. If they become more proficient in the future, there will be no problem in increasing the production capacity.
Thanks to this war, although the independent brigade did not capture many weapons, with the help of the people, all the scrapped weapons left by the devils in various places in Gaojia Town were
Even small items like bullet casings are transported to Xianyaling, so there is currently no shortage of raw materials in the arsenal and gunpowder factory.
Gu Changfeng listened to Li Mingshan's introduction of the specific situation and nodded in agreement from time to time.
Half an hour later, the two men left the arsenal. Gu Changfeng said, "We must speed up the research on the 107 rocket launcher. Report any difficulties promptly. Although there won't be any major battles in the near future, by preparing early, we can also gain the upper hand in the next battle with the Japanese."
Li Mingshan smiled and said, "Captain, I actually have an idea for the 107. Manufacturing it isn't difficult at the moment; it's mainly a matter of requirements."
"It's quite difficult to reach the standard of the rocket launchers you provided. We still need time to improve."
Gu Changfeng thought for a moment and asked, "If the requirements are lower, can we start mass production first?"
He has no shortage of artillery, but now it has been secretly incorporated into the Eighth Route Army. If conditions permit, he can definitely support a batch of them to the headquarters.
Li Mingshan obviously had an idea in mind and said directly: "Brigade Commander, we have conducted experiments before, and the range of our missile is much worse, only four kilometers."
"Because of the hasty conclusion of our previous experiment, we only managed to get to the point of a single-tube launch."
When Li Mingshan said this, Gu Changfeng had an idea and he directly put forward his suggestion.
"Mingshan, since the seamless steel pipes have arrived, you can also get some single-barrel 107s while considering increasing the range for your next mission."
"With a gun like this, a squad can be equipped with two. It's very comfortable to carry them on our backs to attack the Japanese. After the attack, we can just run away."
His words gave Li Mingshan an idea. Cannons are prepared for the battlefield, so of course they should be used in any way that is convenient.
Thinking of this, Li Mingshan said: "Brigade Commander, I understand now. We will continue to study the range and produce some to provide the soldiers with practical experience."
"Hmm... maybe we can design it into a double or triple tube, which would make it much lighter."
Li Mingshan, who had opened his mind, didn't care whether Gu Changfeng was there or not. After he finished speaking, he turned around and ran towards the arsenal. Gu Changfeng smiled bitterly and stopped Li Mingshan who was about to run away.
"Mingshan, the 107 rocket launcher can actually be made simpler. Just place it on the ground, aim, and fire it with a few ordinary batteries and two ordinary wires."
"Generally speaking, for simple targets, three kilometers is definitely enough. A single-tube launcher has a range of 1500 meters, which is ideal."
"To ensure accuracy, it's best to place the rockets on a flat surface. In extreme cases, you can even remove the back covers of the rockets, line them up on the ground, and ignite them directly with fire."
Historically, the Eighth Route Army was able to produce such a magical weapon as the 107 under difficult circumstances, naturally because it was not difficult. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for the Eighth Route Army to produce it in large quantities under its conditions.
Gu Changfeng's idea is to equip the team and support the headquarters in large numbers, which must be simple and convenient.
Li Mingshan was stunned. After a while, he asked, "Brigade Commander, are you sure you can still do this?"
Gu Changfeng smiled and said, "You'll know after trying it." Then he waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'll leave it to you. I hope to see the finished product soon."
Li Mingshan nodded excitedly and said, "Don't worry, Commander. With your idea, we can just follow the direction and research it. I will definitely be able to figure it out within half a month."
The difficulty has been greatly reduced. If he fails to do it, he will not be a top student but a waste.
Gu Changfeng walked away humming a song. In a good mood, he went straight to the top of Xianya Ridge to find Zhou Qianli.
Zhou Qianli has to leave for Yanzhou tomorrow. He will be away for several months. Gu Changfeng is looking for him to discuss the subsequent team matters.
"Changfeng, when I'm not at the brigade headquarters, Chenghai and Lao Wan will directly take over most of my work."
"As for the personnel coming from Yanzhou, you will have to take care of the arrangements when the time comes. I must not allow any problems to occur at the brigade headquarters while I'm away."
Zhou Qianli was still quite worried. Gu Changfeng just waved his hand and said that the shopkeeper didn't care about the logistics at all. You know, if the details are not handled properly, it is easy to cause big trouble.
Gu Changfeng said: "Don't worry, I will pay more attention to this point. In fact, it is still an integration issue. I have explained this to the battalion commanders."
Zhou Qianli glanced at Gu Changfeng and said seriously, "I'm not worried about the people coming from Yanzhou. The main thing is that the government officials will be here in about twenty days."
"Then there will be three parties involved. How will you handle this?"
Gu Changfeng had actually planned to turn this down, but Chen Yaoting was not stupid and did not give Gu Changfeng a chance to refuse.
After paying so much, they can't even deploy a single person in the independent brigade. How can they be considered a Nationalist army?
Gu Changfeng's eyes flashed with coldness, and he looked at Zhou Qianli and said, "Take your time. If they are obedient, we will join the team. If they are disobedient, we will send them to the battlefield and make them disappear silently."
It is normal for a few people to die on the battlefield. Besides, what if Gu Changfeng turns against him one day? He is not afraid of what the principal will do to him. As an anti-Japanese hero, the principal also has to consider the impact.
