Wang Jiuling naturally refused to answer, and pretended to be angry: "If you don't accept it, how dare I ask you for help in the future! Then he paused and said: "Take it... take it..." and stuffed it directly into Zhang Zhizhong's pocket.
Inside, he picked up Zhang Zhizhong's chopsticks and forced them into his hands, saying: "Don't mention the money, just eat!" After that, he tried his best to pick up Zhang Zhizhong's food.
Zhang Zhizhong smiled bitterly, shook his head slightly, and then said: "Eat...eat..."
After dinner, Wang Jiuling took Zhang Zhizhong to visit the arsenal. Although most of the equipment inside is aging, new equipment will arrive soon. At present, the arsenal is mainly helping Wang Jiuling produce Hanyang-made rifle bullets and wooden-handled grenades. At the same time, they are officially developing
Rifle, although Wang Jiuling has drawn the structure that is not officially strong, but there are still many things that he is not satisfied with.
For example, the caliber of China is a country with an underdeveloped poetry industry. Therefore, if the 7.92mm bullet of the Mauser rifle is mass-produced, a lot of precious metal will be wasted. But if the bullet is made like a 38-mm cap, the power will be lost. Britain
The Lee-Enfield and American Springfield rifles all use 7.62mm bullets, so Wang Jiuling finally decided to use 7.62×57mm rifle bullets, just reducing the length of the bullet a little, which will not affect the lethality too much.
The ammunition supply uses 6 rounds of internal ammunition. Originally, I wanted to use 10 rounds of ammunition. However, China does not have the industrial strength. If it is promoted nationwide, the warlords and Chiang Kai-shek may not be able to accept it. 6 rounds is just too much.
One bullet, but there are one more bullets than the Japs on the battlefield. You can kill them when they load their bullets, and with one extra bullet, those stingy warlords should not mind so much. At the same time, if the industrial capabilities are in the future
If allowed, Wang Jiuling plans to produce the ak-47 assault rifle
Data type of the finalized medium-form rifle: manual rifle, single-shot caliber: 7.62 mm Ammunition: 7.62×57mm medium-form rifle magazine capacity: 6 rounds, built-in staggered magazine Bolt: manual, bolt action
Total length: 1110 mm Barrel length: 600 mm Weight: 3.95 kg Rate of fire: about 15 rounds Muzzle velocity: 780 meters per second Effective range: 800 meters Bayonet length: 575.5 mm Mitsubishi stabbing sight: Arc rear sight, V-shaped notch
The official rifle in the rear sight inherits the classic Mauser-style rotating pull-back bolt of the 98 series Mauser rifles. The tail of the bolt is a built-in magazine with a safety device and bullets arranged in double rows staggered. It uses 6-round magazines to load bullets.
Bullets are pressed into the magazine through the top of the receiver, and single-shot loading is also possible. It adopts a downward-curved charging handle, which is convenient for carrying and installing a scope. It adopts an arc-shaped rear sight, a "V"-shaped notched rear sight, and an inverted "V"
shaped front sight, the front sight has a round guard
In addition to the standard Mauser bayonet mount, blade safety, bifurcated left bolt locking tenon and shell piece, the Chinese version also has a sling on the left side, a front sight guard, a downwardly curved handle, and the butt at the handle head.
There are corresponding grooves, and there is a metal hole in the middle of the butt for disassembling the firing pin, etc.
Now Wang Jiuling really doesn't know what needs to be changed. After finalizing, he produced 10 guns and found many people to test the guns. There were hundreds of people including these production staff. They simulated plains, rainforests, deserts, cold areas, and every place.
I put the gun in that place for three days and tried again, but still no particularly fatal design flaw was found.
However, Wang Jiuling is still continuing to test, and there is no mass production yet. Wang Jiuling plans to adopt standardized assembly line production, but this will require him to import equipment from the United States. Currently, only the United States is the best in this area.
Wang Jiuling and Zhang Zhizhong came to the arsenal. The testers were still testing. Wang Jiuling picked up a gun and handed it to Zhang Zhizhong and said: "Brother Wenbai, try our latest rifle and see what needs to be improved. Don't flatter us. Haha."
!If there are no problems, I plan to promote it to the whole country. From now on, it will be our standard equipment in China, including the Central Army of course. When you go back, you can take back the blueprints."
Zhang Zhizhong picked up the official rifle, pressed the bullets handed over by the guard into the barrel, and then aimed at the wooden target one round at a time. After firing four magazines, Zhang Zhizhong ran to the target to look, and Wang Jiuling followed.
Zhang Zhizhong said: "This gun is very satisfying in terms of feel, accuracy and power. Is it designed by us ourselves?"
"Yes, we simulated various environments and tested them. There are no major problems. They perform very well in various environments. I brought you here today because if the test is OK, you can take the drawings back for production.
, so as not to be ripped off by those foreigners when buying a gun. Secondly, you are a master of playing with guns and know more about firearms, so I want you to see if there is anything that needs to be improved on this gun. Don’t refuse. This is related to national defense.
big question”
"Okay, okay, it's an honor for me to participate in the test of China's first real rifle. But Zhongpu, you have spent so much effort to develop such a good gun. Are you really planning to give it to us, the central government and those warlords?"
Zhang Zhizhong asked
"Yes," Wang Jiuling said with emotion. Our country has never had a better gun. The one made in Hanyang is too backward and cannot meet the needs of modern warfare. You see, the Japanese have occupied Taiwan, Northeast China, Rehe, and Shanghai.
They were also forced to withdraw, and they occupied such a large land at a negligible cost. If I were a Japanese, I would continue to launch a war of aggression against China, occupy this vast territory, and expand even more for my descendants.
living space, so a war between China and Japan is inevitable. According to my prediction, the Japs have always put tactics ahead of strategy. If other countries would spend ten years consolidating and assimilating the Northeast, the Japs will definitely only
Give it 6 or 7 years, so I am afraid that a full-scale war of aggression against China will break out in about three to five years. For the leaders of a country, it is natural to prepare for the worst, so we can only trust them in three years.
waging war"
After a pause, Wang Jiuling continued: "That means we must change our equipment within three years, and at the same time produce enough weapons to ensure that we can change the equipment of those warlords at any time. Although these warlords are usually selfish, I believe that most of them are not
They don't want to be slaves to the subjugation of the country. Once a full-scale war breaks out, they will still fight. However, the weapons they use are in a mess. It is daunting to think about supplying ammunition for those weapons. One division has several or even dozens of rifles.
, Brother Wenbai, unfortunately imagine that there will be so many armies in the country by then. I am afraid that we will have more logistics personnel than combat personnel, not to mention so many guns and ammunition. I really can’t imagine how we can guarantee their logistics, so I
I feel that after the Central Army completes the re-equipment, they can sell the surplus weapons produced later to the local forces. If not sold to him, they will buy other weapons instead of letting the money go into the pockets of foreigners.
, it is better for the central government to make money, and once the war starts, there is no need to deal with the troublesome logistics of those troops."
Zhang Zhizhong smiled and said: "Haha... Listening to what you said, it seems that I may not be able to go back during this period. I have to test our mainstay for the war of resistance." After saying that, he took it in his hand and looked at it.
"By the way, have you given a name for this gun?" Zhang Zhizhong asked.
"I plan to name this gun a Chinese official rifle." Wang Jiuling didn't believe that if this gun was good and it was named after him, Chiang Kai-shek wouldn't produce it? I'm afraid he would ask someone to produce it immediately.
But something epoch-making
"Zhongquan...Zhongquan rifle," Zhang Zhizhong chanted repeatedly, "What a good name! Zhongpu is determined."
"Haha..." Both parties laughed meaningfully
"Let me tell you about the parameter performance of the current test of the gun!" After that, Wang Jiuling and Zhang Zhizhong were discussing...
Zhang Zhizhong tested here for half a month and fell into a state of obsession. Wang Jiuling visited him several times, but seeing how obsessed he was, he didn't bother him.
Half a month later, Zhang Zhizhong left Panzhihua with 10 manufactured Chinese rifles and some bullets, without mentioning what Chiang Kai-shek had told him.
Zhang Zhizhong knew what the Nationalist Government was like now. He felt more at ease with Xikang in Wang Jiuling's hands than in anyone else's hands. As for Chiang Kai-shek, he could just fool him. In fact, everyone knew the result, but he would do it occasionally.
Rimeng, besides, Wang Jiuling gave Lao Jiang such a good gift, Lao Jiang should be content.
