To be honest, Northern Jiangsu has long had the idea of letting the Eighth Route Army mine this copper mine and a series of iron ore mines.
To be precise, when he first took office at the arsenal, Su Bei knew that if the Eighth Route Army wanted to be self-sufficient in weapons and ammunition, its industrial level would have to keep up.
Otherwise, everything will be empty talk, but at that time, Northern Jiangsu was powerless because of copper mining, smelting and processing.
At that time, Su Bei was not good at it, and it was only after unlocking the system mall that Su Bei discovered that the system mall had technology for sale in this area.
That's why Su Bei came to the chief specifically to talk about mining. After all, if you want to open a mine, you must get the chief's approval.
Now that everything is almost done, all we have to do is wait for the chief to discuss and agree. Su Bei believes that there is a high probability that the chief will agree to his proposal.
Because it is difficult for the leaders to refuse to be self-sufficient in weapons and ammunition, and this is also related to more advanced weapons and equipment later.
For example, anti-tank guns and anti-aircraft guns, these two killer weapons are used to deal with the Japanese tanks and fighter jets.
It can be said that the Eighth Route Army has a huge headache. Now that it finally has a means to directly confront it, the commander and the others will definitely seize it.
And the mass production of these two weapons requires mining, not just these two weapons, but also the various artillery behind them.
Main battle tanks and even fighter jets require a certain level of military industry and a large amount of materials to produce.
Obviously, the current Eighth Route Army is not yet up to this level, so mining is a must.
It is worth mentioning that the price of this type of mining, smelting and reprocessing-related technology is not high in the mall.
It only requires a few hundred killing points, which is much cheaper than those technical drawings of weapons that often cost thousands or even thousands.
In this way, after the chief hung up the phone, he immediately started discussing with other people.
This is related to the subsequent development of the entire Eighth Route Army, which is to continue to use the same combat method as before, where the enemy advances and we retreat, and the enemy retreats and we advance.
Coupled with guerrilla warfare, to effectively eliminate the effective forces of the little devils, it is better to directly change the original combat method.
Use large corps to fight and fight head-on with the Japs. No longer like before, when encountering the Japs' large-scale raids, you would choose to avoid the edge temporarily.
Once this combat method changes, the impact will be great, so the chief discussed it with several other people for the first time.
Several people hold their own opinions, and everyone has a different opinion. There is no way, the first discussion in front of them has no results.
The chief can only say that he is adjourning the meeting temporarily, and will wait until everyone goes back to think about it carefully and prepare for the second discussion.
............
It is normal for major matters like this not to be decided in one meeting. Everyone’s views are reasonable. On the one hand, I feel that the current development momentum of the Eighth Route Army is very good.
There is no need to take that risk. Although there are many benefits to the Eighth Route Army's own copper mining, high returns also mean high risks.
If you are not careful, you may lose everything. On the other hand, you feel that the little devil is coming menacingly as time goes by.
The methods adopted by the Eighth Route Army are becoming more and more extreme, and the scope of activities of the Eighth Route Army is constantly being reduced, and this continues.
The situation of the Eighth Route Army is getting worse and worse. Instead of continuing like this, it is better to give it a try and vigorously mine copper and iron ores, etc., as Su Bei said.
Then in the shortest possible time, the Eighth Route Army troops will be fully armed from the inside out, so that they will have the capital to confront the little devils head-on.
In fact, the current situation of the Eighth Route Army is indeed getting worse, and the most difficult period will undoubtedly be July next year.
After the little devils proposed the three-guang policy, the Eighth Route Army was in a very bad situation. You must know the reason why the Eighth Route Army was able to develop to such a scale.
It is completely inseparable from the support of the common people, and the general content of the three-guang policy proposed by the little devil is that every time you go to a place.
They will burn them all, kill them all, and rob them all, leaving no opportunity for the Eighth Route Army to develop. It can only be said that this kind of three-guang policy just started.
It was indeed difficult for the development of the Eighth Route Army. Fortunately, it finally managed to survive. Finally, after several consecutive discussions between the leaders.
Finally, the results were obtained. On the third day, the chief made a call to Su Bei.
"Xiao Su, as you said, we will directly mine copper ore, iron ore and other minerals. I will leave the professional skills in this area to you."
"At present, our Eighth Route Army has almost no technical personnel related to this aspect, so this aspect will be left to you, Xiao Su."
"As for other aspects, leave it to me. In the past few days, I have discussed it with several others. In the following period, we are preparing to expand the army aggressively."
"It's just that as the number of people increases, the number of weapons and equipment required will increase. I wonder if you, Xiao Su, can guarantee the supply of weapons and ammunition?"
After receiving the chief's approval, Su Bei's eyes shone and he immediately promised.
"Chief, don't worry. As long as our Eighth Route Army mines copper and iron ores, and then builds several ore smelting and processing factories."
"There is no need to worry about the production problem. As long as the number of machine tools and workers is sufficient, then our weapons production will increase to a huge number."
"By the way, chief, if we are going to mine copper ore and iron ore, we will need another group of workers. It is best if they have been exposed to this kind of work before."
In response, the chief nodded without hesitation.
"Well, I understand. I will find a way to find a group of people for you. If you encounter something that cannot be solved later in the mining process."
"You can come to me directly. As long as it's not a technical problem, I can solve it for you."
Hearing this, Su Bei was shocked. These words were almost equivalent to a death-free gold medal.
With these words from the chief, Subei can show off its talents once the mining and smelting of mines are put on the agenda.
So this is very beneficial to both Northern Jiangsu and the Eighth Route Army.
