"It is of great significance, because this means that in the field of rifles, we have surpassed the Little Devil for the first time."
"And this also means that under the leadership of Su Bei, our arsenal can produce more and more advanced weapons and equipment."
"Perhaps it won't be long before the weapons and equipment of our Eighth Route Army troops will surpass those of the Central Army and even the Japs."
"In this way, we can greatly reduce the casualties of our Eighth Route Army soldiers. After all, we fought against the Japs before."
"The main reason why our casualties are much greater than that of the Japs is the difference in weapons and equipment. Once they become the weapons and equipment of our Eighth Route Army."
"If we are on an equal footing with the little devil, then everything will no longer be a problem. This time, Su Bei has made a great contribution."
Having said this, Zhang Wanhe couldn't help but feel a little emotional. You can imagine that when other people heard about this, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
It will definitely be very shocking, because when Su Bei took the position of director of the arsenal, many people were still a little unconvinced.
Everyone thought that Su Bei was too young to be qualified for the important position of director of the Taihang Mountain Arsenal.
In addition, there are two reasons. On the one hand, he has just returned to China and no one knows what his abilities are.
On the other hand, the original director of the arsenal, Wang Ming, did not make any mistakes, and he did so when the arsenal was first established.
I have been serving as the director of this factory for a long time. He is the kind of person who has no merit but hard work. In the end, it was the director who stood up to everyone's objections.
It was only then that Su Bei was promoted to the position of director of the arsenal. Facts have proved that the chief's vision is correct.
Regardless of whether this new rifle has surpassed the 38 cover of the Little Devil, it can be seen from the two aspects of Subei's improvement of machine tools and research on new weapons.
Su Bei's abilities are extraordinary, unless these all fail, such as the machine tool modification fails, and the performance of the new weapons is not ideal.
Only in this way may it be possible to prove that the chief has misjudged the wrong person this time, but at this stage, the probability of this is still very small.
When Li Yunlong on the side heard these words, his eyes flickered slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
After Li Yunlong thought for a few minutes, he looked at Zhang Wanhe again.
"Old Zhang, please help and keep an eye on the quilt factory. I have something to leave for a while."
"What? Are you going to join in the fun too?"
Zhang Wanhe could see Li Yunlong's little idea at a glance, but he knew that Li Yunlong regarded his gun as his life.
Like before, as long as I could seize a small steel cannon or something from the Japs, I would be so happy that I couldn't sleep for several nights.
It can be seen how much Li Yunlong likes this kind of advanced weapons, so when he heard about his own arsenal.
How could Li Yunlong not want to see it with his own eyes when he actually made a rifle that was more advanced than the little devil's 38-gauge rifle?
.........
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Li Yunlong would probably have been unable to sleep for several nights.
Seeing that his idea was exposed, Li Yunlong scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Old Zhang, you know me. Yes, I just want to take a look and see if this weapon is really that powerful."
"If he is really that strong, then I have to establish a good relationship with this Su Bei in advance, just in case my officer is reinstated later."
"If you want your troops to be equipped with these new weapons, you have to rely on Subei to move hundreds of rifles over."
Zhang Wanhe immediately became happy when he heard Li Yunlong's loud tone.
"Hey, you are very loud. There are hundreds of rifles out there. If this rifle is really more useful than the little devil's 38-meter cover."
"Don't worry about the result. It will definitely become the favorite of the entire Eighth Route Army. Plus, as you know, the output of our arsenal is not very high."
"So when the time comes, there will definitely be a lot of people watching. If you, Li Yunlong, want to be assigned to this new rifle, you don't know if you will have to wait until the end of the year of the monkey."
"Your idea is very good. Say hello to Su Bei first, and it will be much more convenient later when you really want to get some weapons from the arsenal."
"Well, that's right, that's exactly what I had in mind. Lao Zhang, please keep an eye on me. I'll leave first, otherwise I won't be able to catch up later."
Before Zhang Wanhe could express his position, Li Yunlong said hello and left.
Because he knew that Zhang Wanhe would definitely help with this little thing, and in fact he did.
After Li Yunlong left the quilt factory, Zhang Wanhe walked towards the quilt factory, helping Li Yunlong keep an eye on the factory director.
At this time, on the other side, after a period of traveling, the leader finally arrived at the arsenal.
"Chief, the arsenal is ahead."
The chief of staff looked at the small factories in front of him, then turned around and spoke to the chief beside him.
"Well, just go in. They are probably waiting in a hurry."
"Yes! Chief."
Half an hour later, the two parties finally met. When looking at Su Bei in front of him, the chief was in a particularly good mood.
"Hahahaha, Xiao Su, I didn't expect you to give me a surprise. Not long ago, you came out with a new rifle. I was not wrong about you."
In this regard, Su Bei still spoke very modestly.
"Chief, these are what I should do."
The chief nodded and immediately got straight to the point.
"Well, by the way, Xiao Su, where is this new weapon you are researching? Where is it? Let me see what it looks like."
"Chief, that rifle is in the factory inside, but chief, you have been on the road for such a long time, do you want to take a rest first?"
Su Bei's words are not unreasonable. You must know that he came from the headquarters agency a few days ago to take up the post. There is some distance between the two.
It was almost two or three hours away, so Su Bei suggested that the chief take a rest first.
Upon hearing this, the chief waved his hand directly.
"No, I'm just going to test that rifle of yours. My identity is not that delicate."
"Okay, chief, please come this way."
Seeing that the chief said this, Su Bei did not persist any longer, but took the chief and others to the small factory building where the M1 Garand rifle was made.
Ten minutes later, everyone arrived at the small factory building, and Su Bei was responsible for introducing it to the chief and others.
"Chief, this factory is the place where we specialize in making that new rifle. You see, this machine tool is the machine tool we improved a few days ago."
