He ate it directly. These little devil cans were delivered by Li Yunlong some time ago. They were not in large quantities.
There are only a dozen cans. There is no way. Li Yunlong's independent regiment only has so much. At this period, the cans of the little devil are very important to the Eighth Route Army.
It is still considered a rare product. Ordinary soldiers are not qualified to taste it at all. Only officers and so on can eat such a can by chance.
Just like Su Bei, these dozen cans of Little Devil cans are enough for him to eat for a week.
After simply finishing a can, Su Bei directly picked up the phone on the table and called the headquarters.
"Hello, I'm Su Bei. I have something to do with the chief."
As soon as the call was connected, Su Bei got straight to the point.
After hearing this, the other end of the phone was silent for a while, and then immediately spoke.
"Okay, Director Su, please wait a moment."
At this time, on the other side, in the headquarters office, the chief was discussing with several chiefs of staff about the subsequent development of the Eighth Route Army.
Suddenly at this time, a soldier came in to report.
"Report to the chief, Director Su just called and said he has something to ask you."
When the chief saw this sudden intrusion, he felt a little dissatisfied. Didn't he see that they were having a meeting?
So he had no eyesight, but when the chief heard the soldier's words, the dissatisfaction in his heart directly turned into curiosity.
The chief did not expect that Su Bei would call him directly this time. Generally speaking, if there was nothing important, Su Bei would not call him directly.
So far, Su Bei has been the director of the arsenal for almost two months, but he has only called him once.
It was the last time he came to him specifically to discuss robbing the kid's train. Since then, Su Bei has not called him again.
Any subsequent situation at the arsenal will be reported to their headquarters by Wang Ming, the deputy director, so for today's situation.
Su Bei called him again, which surprised the chief.
"I see."
Then he spoke to several other chiefs of staff.
"The meeting is suspended. I'm going to take a call."
"No problem, chief, you go ahead and do your work."
After the chief left, several chiefs of staff began to discuss.
"I didn't expect that the chief likes Director Su so much."
"Yes, Director Su can make the chief executive suspend the meeting with just one phone call. Only Northern Jiangsu can have such treatment."
"No, this Director Su is a real talent, the treasure of our Eighth Route Army. No, I heard that he has developed another light machine gun."
"How much is this? In less than two months since I took office, I have both the M1 Garand rifle and the light machine gun. I guess it won't be long."
"Director Su can produce heavy machine guns and artillery. Maybe our Eighth Route Army can also achieve freedom of machine guns and artillery."
When several other people heard this, their eyes lit up and they all agreed.
"If you look at it this way, it's understandable that the chief loves Factory Director Su so much. After all, talents are given special treatment wherever they are."
............
The chief had no idea about the discussion between these people. At this time, he had already arrived at the phone and picked up the phone.
"Hey! Comrade Xiao Su, I heard that you have something to do with me?"
As soon as the chief picked up the phone, he asked straight to the point.
"Chief, we have successfully produced this light machine gun and tested it. There are no problems. Now we just need advanced machine tools and materials."
"We can start mass production. By the way, in two days I will ask the soldiers to send one or two light machine guns to you, chief, so that you can check it yourself."
The chief was very satisfied with this and nodded immediately.
"Comrade Xiao Su, thank you for your hard work. We are working on a solution for you with the materials and advanced machine tools you need."
"In a week at most, these things will be sent to your arsenal. By the way, Xiao Su, what is the production volume of this light machine gun?"
This is something the chief is very concerned about. At present, the production of M1 Garand rifles makes the chief very satisfied.
Especially two days ago, he sent someone to deliver a batch of machine tools and materials for bullet production equipment to the arsenal.
This has further increased the production of M1 Garand rifles. The current production of M1 Garand rifles in the arsenal is 700 per day.
In one month, there are more than 20,000 M1 Garand rifles. This output is already very large for the Eighth Route Army.
Similarly, its bullet production has not dropped. The current output is 10,000 rounds of bullets a day, and it will be 300,000 rounds in a month.
This is only the production of original bullets. If reloaded bullets are included, the monthly production of bullets can reach almost 400,000 rounds.
Whether it is the production of the M1 Garand rifle or its bullets, the chief is quite satisfied. The production has increased many times compared with before.
Therefore, the chief also wants to know how the production of this light machine gun is, if the production is okay.
Then it can be equipped to all units of the Eighth Route Army in a short period of time. After all, the light machine gun is no better than the M1 Garand rifle.
For example, the M1 Garand rifle needs to be equipped in the hands of every soldier. A regiment may need to be equipped with one or two thousand M1 Garand rifles.
But the light machine gun is different. A regiment may only be equipped with at most twenty or thirty light machine guns. In this case.
If the production of this light machine gun can be increased slightly, it can be equipped in various units of the Eighth Route Army in a short period of time.
At this time, on the other side, when Su Bei heard the chief's inquiry, he thought for a while and then spoke.
"Chief, if you have an advanced machine tool, you can make two light machine guns in one day, as long as there are enough manpower and machine tools."
"Then the output will increase. With ten machine tools, the daily output of light machine guns will be twenty. As for bullets."
"One piece of equipment can produce two hundred rounds of bullets a day, provided there are enough manpower and materials. The materials are pretty good at the moment, except for the ten tons of copper that the Japs snatched some time ago."
"There is still more than half of it that has not been used up. It will last at least two or three months. After two or three months, we will have to consider the lack of raw materials for bullets again."
