Chapter 1944: Weapons of Xiagou Iron Works

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Sure enough, when Li Yunlong arrived at the Xiagou Iron Works, he saw the sparks of the arc splashing there, and they were welding the hull of the tank.

    Originally, this weapon was supposed to be produced in the Huangyadong Arsenal of the Eighth Route Army.  But considering that the tank may need to be modified, if the tank is enlarged at that time, it will not be able to get out of Yixiantian.  That would be a joke.  It's like when a welder welds himself into the railing, he can't get out.  Their tanks have been built, but they can't get out of Yixiantian. It will be very embarrassing at that time.

    Think about a large group of technicians, and finally made such a joke, it is estimated that the tank will have to be disassembled and moved out.  That's what they want, but they can't afford to lose this person, so they simply set up tank production in Xiagou Iron Works.

    Anyway, for a tank, the most needed thing is iron.  The steel produced in the Xiagou Iron Works can be used directly for tanks.  Moreover, after using up the remaining iron, it can be returned to the furnace to be rebuilt, so there is no need to waste it.  It's just that the various parts and components of the tank still need to be manufactured at the Huangyadong Arsenal, and then transported to the Xiagou Iron Works for assembly.

    Now what is being welded here is the body part of the tank.  The experienced master craftsman from Huangyadong Arsenal is busy busy.

    In this era, the design concept of tanks has made great progress.  Slope armor, for example, has been given extra emphasis.  Even when the Germans were manufacturing the Panther tanks and King Tiger tanks, they began to use a large number of armors with dips, which can greatly increase the equivalent thickness of the tanks.  And now the tank led by Qin Baoshan, in addition to the application of inclined armor, also applied the valuable experience of tank design during the Cold War, that is, the height of the compressed tank.  The lower the height of the tank, the smaller the frontal area, and the less steel is required, and the lighter the weight.  So the body of this small tank is very low.  Fortunately for the gunner in the back, the space for the driver in front must be very small.

    In order to make tanks lower, tank designers from all over the world are trying to find ways.  By the time of the Cold War, it was basically the same.  The tank body is not high, and the space for the driver of the tank is limited. They have two driving postures.  If you poke your head out of the hatch, you can sit and drive the tank.  If it is necessary to close the hatch above the head on a complex battlefield, then the driver has to lie down and drive the tank.  And when choosing a tanker, try to choose a small one, especially the driver.

    Qin Baoshan's design seems to be a joke.  But in fact, it can achieve very good results, and it simply opens up a new way of thinking.  Ma Sanbao and the others are very novel about this.  A small detail can reflect Qin Baoshan's level.  After they came here, it was an eye-opener.

    "Old Li, don't keep staring there, or you will be blind. It's terrible to be uneducated." Just as Li Yunlong was staring at the sparks of the arc, Qin Baoshan's voice sounded.  There are a lot of ultraviolet rays in the firelight of electric welding, and if it shines on people's eyes for a long time, it may even lead to permanent blindness.  Li Yunlong kept staring there, leaving Qin Baoshan speechless. This guy is really uneducated and doesn't understand basic scientific knowledge.

    When Li Yunlong heard what Qin Baoshan said, he turned his head and asked excitedly: "Brother Baoshan, when will we be able to produce this tank?"

    Qin Baoshan shook his head: "I don't know about that either." Qin Baoshan was very dissatisfied with what he said. I've been talking about it for three months. Why do you still ask?

    "Our old Li promised Chu Yunfei to help him get rid of the little devil's tank. Now it's completely up to you. If you can't complete the task, then our old Li will be caught blind by then."

    "This is what you, Li Yunlong, agreed to, not me." Qin Baoshan said irresponsibly.

    "But our old Li asked Chu Yunfei for a large amount of supplies. There is a lot of food, a lot of wine, and a lot of meat. As long as you help, then our old Li can share half of you."

    Wei Dayong knew the relationship between these two people a long time ago, and he would always sarcasm each other after meeting, but if he had interests, he would definitely not hesitate.  Hearing what Li Yunlong said, Qin Baoshan nodded immediately: "Deal."

    "Then hurry up and say, how can we defeat the little devil's tank army?"

    Hearing Li Yunlong's question, Qin Baoshan said: "Come on, follow me to the workshop over there."

    Hearing what Qin Baoshan said, Li Yunlong was a little strange. If we want to defeat the little devil's tank, shouldn't we use our own tank?  Now that the tank is here, why are you taking me to the workshop over there?

      But he didn't dare to ask, if he wanted to ask, Qin Baoshan would definitely be dissatisfied there, just follow me, why ask so much?

    Anyway, as long as you go there, you will know, so Li Yunlong followed Qin Baoshan to the workshop inside.  At this time, the hydraulic press in the workshop was humming.  A cylinder made of steel is being plugged into a hydraulic press.  The hydraulic rod of the hydraulic machine is slowly moving down, poking into the inside of the cylinder.

    When Li Yunlong saw the cylinder made of steel, his eyelids jumped up suddenly: "His grandma, are we finally going to build cannons?"

    Although there were many guns in the past, such as the 107mm rocket launcher, it is a weapon commonly used by the Eighth Route Army.  But after all, it was a sneaky trick, not a regular cannon.  In the military factories of the Eighth Route Army, the first real cannon should be the 20mm cannon.  Strictly defined, 20 mm is the dividing line between a gun and a cannon. A gun with a caliber of less than 20 mm is a gun, and a gun with a caliber of more than 20 mm. This machine gun is the first type of gun of the Eighth Route Army, and now they are finally going to produce artillery with a larger caliber.  Yes, Li Yunlong looked over and felt that the gun should be similar to the 92-type infantry gun of the little devil, but with a longer barrel.  Moreover, he couldn't see the inside of the muzzle, so he didn't know what the caliber was.  But he was very clear in his heart: Qin Baoshan wanted to make this kind of gun to deal with the little devil's tank.

    "This is the anti-tank gun we are developing. We can penetrate the thin-skinned tank of the little devil from the front to the back." Qin Baoshan said.

    In the past, they couldn't beat the little devil's iron bastard at all, but now, Qin Baoshan said, they can fight from the front to the back!  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
