Xiong Mengyuanxing hurriedly found Zhang Tinglan's temporary residence and sent over a list. It was full of various equipment shipped from Russia, as well as a large number of machines. Zhang Tinglan saw that it was quite large.
of excitement.
The most important of them are artillery, including 28 76mm mountain guns, 42 91mm grenade mortars, and eight 122mm howitzers.
After seeing this list, Zhang Tinglan was immediately elated. As long as he gathered a few more guns, he could have a mountain artillery regiment. As for the 122mm howitzer, it was a killer weapon. After Zhang Zuolin gathered together a battalion, they were all precious.
It's so awesome that I keep it in my hand as a trump card.
And now, after just half a month of trading, they have obtained eight guns. After one winter, they can still obtain the equipment of two complete heavy artillery regiments. At this time, Fengjun's equipment will be completely replaced by cannons, and its strength will suddenly expand.
Got up.
In addition to these artillery pieces, the number of Mosin-Nagan rifles traded exceeded 8,000, and there were also a large number of shells and bullets, almost piled up like a mountain.
After scanning these munitions, Zhang Tinglan noticed the machines below, including two high-power generators and more than thirty machine tools, including lathes, planers, milling machines, punches, etc. After seeing these,
After taking the things, Zhang Tinglan's eyes also showed joy.
Xiong Mengyuan even said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, I am more interested in machine tools and generators than those weapons. With these two, the arsenal has the hands and feet, and has the power to produce more weapons and equipment. Don't look at it.
Those rifles and cannons are very good, but they are all consumables and will not be used for long. Only these machine tools are truly valuable."
"After the European powers started the war, the arms that had been accumulated for many years were all used up in just a month or two. Now what they are fighting for is production capacity. From this perspective, machine tools are naturally extremely valuable, but Lao Xiong. With these machine tools
, it also depends on whether you can produce real arms, otherwise it will still be useless?"
"Mr. Zhang, you are forcing me to issue a military order." Xiong Mengyuan thought about it in his mind, and then said: "It is still difficult to produce mountain artillery and field artillery on a large scale. The main problem is the material problem. We don't have qualified materials.
Steel. As for other things, the production capacity can be greatly increased. For example, it is conservatively estimated that 600 pistols can be produced in a month. The water rifle can produce 800 rounds, and the production capacity of bullets and shells can more than double!
"
Sure enough, with the machine, there is production capacity. Zhang Tinglan was very excited when he heard this number. If 600 pistols can be produced every month, it will take half a year. Calculated as one for every three people, the security division will be able to produce 600 pistols.
Almost all pistols can be equipped. Of course, according to the current situation, Fengjun will be able to obtain more equipment from the Russians in the past six months. The production capacity will be increased several times or even ten times. By then
Pistols can almost meet the needs of the entire Feng army.
"Mr. Zhang, I have actually been studying the Russian grenade mortars for the past two days. I found that this is a treasure to enhance the firepower of the grassroots. Our army also needs a large amount of equipment. However, 90 mm is a bit big, nearly one hundred kilograms.
The weight of the mortar is also a bit heavy. The Russians are tall and strong, so you don’t care. Our soldiers are not good enough. I plan to copy it first, and then reduce the caliber to 60 mm or 80 mm, and the use of mortars
The materials don’t need to be so strict, we have a way to solve it, and with these machine tools and the original equipment, we can produce mortars in large quantities within two months!”
After listening to Xiong Mengyuan's words, Zhang Tinglan nodded repeatedly. It seemed that he was indeed attentive. Mortars were indeed a weapon that the Feng army urgently needed to equip.
"Old Xiong, you should go to Jilin as soon as possible and get familiar with the machine. Then if you need anything else, list it all. If we can move it back from Russia, we will try our best to move it back!"
In fact, in the first few days of the transaction, both the Russians and Zhang Tinglan were testing the situation. After all, both parties were not completely convinced yet. However, after half a month of trading, both parties were completely relieved.
And the scope of transactions is not limited to the military. For ordinary businessmen, the Russian army simply turns a blind eye. As long as the money is sent, they don't care what they sell, but the more they sell.
, the more they make, especially those Chinese businessmen, the more they are not empty-handed every time.
The officers above were stuffed with a lot of money, and the ordinary soldiers were polite and smoked and drank constantly. These Russian soldiers were finally completely corrupted by sugar-coated shells and lost their final combat effectiveness. They were given the green light all the way.
"I really didn't expect the Russians to be so arrogant. They just don't take the country seriously. In the first few days, we were still trading at night. Now it's just in broad daylight. I heard that both sides are going to hold a market by the river.
Is it in the market?”
"Yes, I didn't expect that the Russians would be so bold." Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "The new market is located outside Fuyuan County. As long as we put the goods on the market, Russian merchants will
Come here to select and purchase, and then transport it to the black market for sale. As long as you feed the Russian side, nothing is impossible!"
Xiong Mengyuan rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I think this is an opportunity. Once these Russian troops lose their vigilance, can we take a broader view? After all, the factories in the Far East are not large.
, the technology is not too advanced, I think we should take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to move some of Tsarist Russia’s factories and machines in Europe!”
"Hahaha, old bear, we have made arrangements a long time ago." Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Our deal with the Far East Military is just a way to buy money. Feeding them will mean that Russia's door is wide open. Let's take advantage of their chaotic
At that time, all the needed machines were shipped over. I have given Wang Tieshan, the person in charge of this matter, a death order to get at least 3,000 machine tools back, otherwise he will be severely punished!"
Now that we have obtained thirty units, the arsenal's production capacity has been greatly increased. If we obtain three thousand units, wouldn't it skyrocket! Xiong Mengyuan rubbed his hands in excitement, and his eyes shone with light.
"Old bear, don't be too happy too early. It would be good if one-fifth of these machine tools are for military use. The rest are for civilian use. What we need is an industrial system, not just the military industry. In addition, we need to obtain
Equipment for power generation, coal mining, and smelting. With these things, the steel industry will have a foundation. The next step is to break through the technology of special steel, and we will be able to produce large-caliber artillery!"
After Xiong Mengyuan heard this, he almost jumped up with joy. He kept gearing up and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, it is a pleasure to work with you. In such a short time, our military industry has taken shape. The ones built by the Manchu Qing Dynasty
The arsenal will not be officially put into production for ten or eight years."
"The Manchus are desperate. We are racing against time. If my estimate is correct, whether the Russians can survive this winter is definitely in between. You have also seen Khabarovsk on the opposite side. If you want to put these
Once the sacred territory is restored, we must work hard to develop military industry and achieve self-sufficiency in weapons as soon as possible!"
After explaining, Xiong Mengyuan and Chen Qiming escorted the goods back to Jilin respectively. As for Zhang Tinglan, who continues to be in charge in Fuyuan, he has to wait until the trade route is completely stabilized before he can safely hand it over to others.
To put it bluntly, this is a nutrient-rich blood vessel. As long as we grasp it firmly, within half a year, there will be a qualitative change in the industry in the three northeastern provinces.
As time passed, the small Fuyuan County town suddenly became extremely lively in these days. A large number of carriages were loaded with food, wine, leather clothing and other supplies. After being transported here, they were then loaded with arms and equipment, and quickly
transported back to the province.
This route runs day and night. All the people running on this road have forgotten their fatigue and are full of energy. The huge profits of several times and more than ten times make the merchants' blood boil, and they join this gold-making feast without hesitation.
中. As for the people in the military, the same is true. Seeing those powerful equipment being transported back one after another, everyone feels like they are in heaven, almost fainting with happiness, and even hoping that it will never end.
Zhang Tinglan was like this every day, exhausted and excited. After almost a month, almost all the supplies he had hoarded in Jilin were transported to Russia, and he also exchanged a huge amount of supplies.
Just when everyone was looking forward to continuing to expand the scale of the transaction, Zhang Tinglan suddenly suppressed the smuggling activities, and the daily shipment volume dropped by more than 70%. He himself also left Fuyuan and returned to Jilin happily.
"Idiot, what on earth are you planning, and why did you stop taking the initiative? Are you just going to stop when you see a good time?"
"How can we stop? It's just a small trick. This is called hunger marketing. We can't just exchange as much as the Russians want. Now they are begging us. Do we need to discuss the price? What is being exchanged?
Should we discuss whether we can whet their appetites in the first month and then we will slaughter them?"
When Zhang Zuoxiang heard this, his eyes widened. To be honest, he was more excited than Zhang Tinglan these days. He ran to see the equipment he got back every day. It was like a dream. So many good things became his own.
, I couldn’t even dream of it before, but now it’s just a bargain.
"My humble opinion is that if they are slaughtered again, all the marrow oil of the Russians will be squeezed out!"
"You must not be polite when dealing with the Russians. Dad, let me do the math. Is the artillery that I got back during this period enough to equip the security division?"
"Let's go and see with our own eyes. These artillery brats have got something good, so they can't relax!"
Zhang Zuoxiang and Zhang Tinglan came to the barracks of the Artillery Regiment. Although it was the twelfth lunar month of winter, the atmosphere in the barracks was still very lively. On the school grounds, six 76mm mountain guns were placed in front of them. The training staff were handing over the new recruits to operate the artillery. See
Holding these cold murderous weapons, Zhang Tinglan straightened her waist unconsciously, feeling more and more confident in her heart. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
