Chapter 364 Historical Moments
As the temporary garrison of the arsenal, Wang Ping was guarding Li Xuebin and Zhou Wu as soon as he came back.
He had already made a promise to Commander Nie that he would produce the first batch of reloaded bullets since the establishment of the arsenal in five days.
Commander Nie and Chief of Staff also said that they would come here in person when the time comes. They said all the big words, but Wang Ping didn't want to lose the chain halfway.
"It's done!" In less than two days, Huang Yu's excited voice sounded in Wang Ping's ears.
"The factory director, Professor Zhou made the bullet fire, and the first batch of finished products were a pound. We did the experiment specifically, but there was no problem at all!"
"Okay, now the bullet reinstallation machine is missing. Instructor Huang, tell Professor Zhou, even if you have any requirements, our arsenal will definitely meet them unconditionally. However, I hope he can further simplify and improve the production base fire process and meet the standards of large-scale production."
"In addition, I promised to ask him for credit, and there will be a result in a few days!"
Li Xuebin also did not allow himself to produce it. Although he said that it took five days to reinstall the bullet machine, it actually only took four days.
Because of limited conditions, the reinstallation machine is not as automated as you imagined.
Reloading the base fire and loading the injection medicine requires manual completion.
What the reinstaller needs to do is to perfectly combine the bullet head and the bullet shell filled with the base fire and injection medicine.
But even so, Wang Ping was still very excited.
Because the emergence of a reinstallation machine can not only improve the pass rate of reinstallation bullets, but more importantly, it can speed up the reinstallation of bullets.
Four or five technicians can only get the bullet shell filled with the bottom fire and the injection medicine to catch up with the reloading of the reloading machine.
Seeing Wang Ping's eyes that he couldn't let go, Li Xuebin said immediately!
"We can build a semi-automatic bullet reloading production line if we keep producing day and night. If we keep producing for every day and night, we can easily produce 450,000 bullets in a month."
"When I build another bullet stamping machine, the production capacity of the production line can be increased to at least 800,000! The only thing I need to worry about is the raw materials. As long as the raw materials are sufficient, the factory manager can grab me some equipment and come back. I will have no problem with the semi-automatic bullet reloading production line for you!"
"Build the production line now!" Wang Ping blurted out.
"Our arsenal has gone from scratch, so you don't even think about technicians. So, first build the production line, pick up a few students and a few workers to be technicians temporarily, and practice the experiment tomorrow. When the skilled technicians are trained, they will be replaced, and they will only be responsible for technical issues!"
"Also, Commander Nie will come to the arsenal the day after tomorrow to see us officially reload the bullets, so this semi-automatic production line must be adjusted tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, our arsenal will try to start a shot and tell the Chief that our arsenal has not disappointed his high expectations!"
Before the third day came, Commander Nie and Chief of Staff of the Military Region rushed over with a platoon of guards.
It can be seen that Commander Nie wants to witness this historic moment more than himself.
After rejecting Wang Ping's suggestion to have dinner first, Commander Nie directly ordered.
"Go to the arsenal first. Didn't you say that the bullet reloading production line has been set up and just wait for production? We can't let comrades wait for me alone!"
Because the underground factory of the arsenal has not been built yet, the bullet reloading production line is temporarily arranged in a ancestral hall.
The two equipment plus the operating platform are only ten meters long. More than a dozen people are sitting on the production line, with tools and raw materials placed in a convenient position.
"Professor Li, this is Commander Nie of our military region!" Wang Ping introduced to Li Xuebin as soon as he entered the ancestral hall.
Li Xuebin was about to speak, but Commander Nie had already held his hand in advance and said excitedly: "Professor Li, I heard Wang Ping mention you many times. Here I would like to express my gratitude to you and your classmates on behalf of the Eighth Route Army. Without you, this semi-automatic bullet reloading production line would not have appeared!"
"Commander Nie is serious. Li has only done his duty as a Chinese!" Li Xuebin replied modestly.
However, from the smile on his face, it was certain that Commander Nie's affirmation of him just now must have benefited him very much, otherwise he would not have been so happy.
Commander Nie continued to praise: "The word "duty is well used. If every Chinese can do this, then the Japanese will never be able to kill all the way to our heartland in China! Professor Li, everyone has been waiting for so long, and they must be anxious. They start to produce and let me see this historical moment!"
"Boom..." Soon the diesel motor not far away began to operate. With electricity, the bullet stamper and the bullet reinstallation machine began to operate one after another.
Li Xuebin followed Commander Nie to the stamping machine and introduced: "Commander Nie, this is a bullet punch. One person is responsible for the feeding port and the other person is responsible for the discharge port. By the way, the unqualified bullets are selected!"
Seeing Commander Nie nodding with satisfaction, Li Xuebin pointed to the ten workers on the operating table and introduced.
"The two people in the front of them are responsible for cleaning the bullet shells, the four people in the back load the bottom fire for the bullet shells, and the four people in the back load the injection medicine!"
"In order to ensure the qualified rate of bullets and ensure that the injection and primer are not much, we have specially made some tools for them to measure."
“It’s very convenient to use, and there’s almost no error!”
While talking, several people had already walked to the last reinstallation machine.
"This is a reloading machine. Two people are responsible for the feeding port. One of them fixes the bullet head, and the other person fixes the bullet shells for injection and fire. Then the reloading machine presses them together. The last person is responsible for the discharge port, checks every reloaded bullet to ensure the qualified rate of the bullet, and packs the produced bullets by the way!"
While speaking, the chief of staff next to him suddenly exclaimed.
"It's out, commander, the first reloading bullet is coming out!"
After the last worker inspected it, Commander Nie hurriedly picked it up as soon as the bullet was sent to the bullet box.
After reading it over and over again, he said very satisfied: "It is exactly the same as the 38th cover bullets that captured the Japanese, and they are all pointed bullets, with a long range and great lethality! I just don't know how effective it is!"
"It's definitely not bad?" Li Xuebin answered confidently.
"Whether the bullet head, the bottom fire, and the injection of medicine are exactly the same as the bullets produced by the Japanese themselves!"
"Commander Nie, I suggest that we wait here. After producing 100 bullets, we will go outside to interview the gun and check the pass rate of the bullets!"
Wang Ping immediately added: "Sir, Professor Li's advice is very pertinent. I heard that your guards are all sharpshooters. Only by letting the sharpshooters use these bullets can you know how good or bad these bullets are!"
The excited Commander Nie agreed without thinking: "Yes, I'll meet all the requirements of your arsenal today!"
