Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In just two days, after being reprinted by dozens of domestic and foreign newspapers, the news that Yang Qiu took charge of the National Defense Forces and sent a nationwide telegram to persuade Yuan Shikai to rectify caused a sensation in the country.  newspaper became famous overnight, and Dai Tianchou became the most popular war reporter in the country.  (If you want to read text novels, go to ¡®¡¯)

    Whenever I see the classic photo in the newspaper, with the war as the background, Yang Qiu with the Flying Tiger flag on his back and the soldiers jumping out of the trench to launch a counterattack, I don¡¯t know how many people can¡¯t sleep.

    Young people regard him as their idol because he is only 22 years old!  And almost all the main officers in the National Defense Force are young people!  The applauders called him the reincarnation of Huo Qiaoqi, because it was at this age that General Huo Qubing died young.  Those who hated him gnashed their teeth, believing that he was self-reliant on the military, brought trouble to the country and government, was ruthless and unjust, and had used evil hands on internal comrades since the beginning of the war.

    However, no matter who he is, he must face up to his legendary experience.

    ????? Eight Towns with Heavy Troops, Manchu and Qing Batulu, 42 Biaobiaotong, Commander of the Right Route Army, and then Commander-in-Chief of the National Defense Forces!  It took a total of just over a hundred days.

    Seize Yangxia, fight against Liujiamiao for the first time, capture Ruicheng, and defeat Zhang Biao!  Flying to Wusheng Pass, going upstream in the Northern Expedition, recovering the entire territory, fighting bloody battles in Beiyang, and the amazing comeback that just happened!  Magnificent military exploits and formidable determination.  Countless rumors and deeds seemed to be attached to the new commander-in-chief of the National Defense Forces at once.  The expectations of the constitutionalists, the dreams of the party members, and the deep curse of the north were all entangled in one person.  (If you want to read text novels, go to ¡®¡¯)

    In teahouses, street corners, hotels and even brothels, wherever people gather, it is inevitable to say a few words of envy, jealousy or love In the midst of it, fame begins to expand rapidly in the gossip on the streets.

    But everyone didn¡¯t know that the commander-in-chief, whom Yang Du nicknamed ¡°a young man with a lot of money¡±, was lying in the mud in the experimental range of the Hanyang Gun Factory, operating the newly finalized 7826 light machine gun like an ordinary soldier.

    A tongue of flame shot out from the trumpet-shaped muzzle cap, and with a low and powerful roar, the two-legged frame of the gun was deeply inserted into the soil. The bullet casings kept jumping out of the receiver, and the target on the opposite side of the thick door panel was riddled with holes.  .

    After finishing six magazines in a row, Hao Wenbao and other guards and machine gunners who were watching from the side thought that it needed to let the barrel cool down and rest like Madsen, but unexpectedly, a pair of thick gloves suddenly stretched out from beside it.  With his big hand, he grabbed the fixing ring of the barrel and turned it upwards. The barrel was instantly out of the locking groove. Then he reversed the operation and replaced it with a new barrel. The whole process took less than half a minute before the machine gun resumed its roar.

    Machine gunners like Hao Wenbao are the best among the best. Not only do they memorize the "Machine Gun Tactics Regulations" written by Yang Qiu himself, but they also fought at Wusheng Pass for many days. In terms of experience, they are definitely the best among the current National Defense Forces, so  The value of this new light machine gun was immediately apparent.  The speed and firepower are similar to Madsen. Because it has a 20-round magazine, the firepower is less sustained. However, the parts are half as few as Madsen, and the manufacturing is simpler. More importantly, the design of changing the barrel completely solves the problem of barrel replacement.  The problem is that the machine gun needs to rest after overheating.  (If you want to read text novels, go to ¡®¡¯)

    But Yang Qiu is not satisfied. The main problem is the heat resistance of the barrel. Normal 7826 needs to be replaced after at least 200 rounds of continuous firing, but here it needs to be replaced at most 150 rounds. Therefore, the barrel must be thickened to increase the heat capacity.  , the trumpet-shaped muzzle cap should also be changed to a dust-proof suppressor.

    In addition, the connection between the loading port and the magazine is obviously too loose, and the originally beautiful threaded radiator is simply unsightly. The barrel locking ring vibrates when firing, indicating that there are problems with the cutting process.  In addition, there is a big problem, that is, when using Hanyang's imitation steel-cased 792 pointed bullets, the six magazines jammed three times, all because they did not fit the chamber. It can be seen how many defects there are in the processing of the bullets and barrels. Moreover, this  The recoil of the bullet is really too great, far inferior to my favorite 7-rim bullet. As for the workmanship of the entire gun

    It can only be said that QQ and BMW are both pawns!

    After handing the gun to Hao Wenbao, who was already itching for it, Yang Qiucai stood up and smiled at Su Hongsheng next to him: "Mr. Su, you are really my timely help this time."

    Su Hongsheng also had some pride on his face. After Yang Qiu gave him the correct drawings that night, he immediately organized the best masters to work hard to build this kind of machine gun. In addition, he had spent more than a month comparing the drawings to come up with several sets of loose machine guns.  pieces, so this time they took out 10 new light machine guns.  (Read the text novel and go to ¡®¡¯) However, he did not dare to claim credit in front of Yang Qiu, and said with a smile: ¡°This gun doesn¡¯t have a name yet, Commander, let¡¯s give it one.¡±

    ¡°Since it is the first machine gun made by Hanyang, let¡¯s call it the Han-1 light machine gun.¡±

    "Han Type 1, good! It shows that it was made in Hanyang, and it is also the first machine gun made by the Han people." Xiao Anguo clapped his hands and picked up a gun.Weighed the gun a few times: "We spent a lot at Wusheng Pass. We lost 4 heavy machine guns at once. We can finally make up for it this time, but the magazine capacity is a little small."

    "Light machine guns can't be compared with heavy machine guns." Yang Qiu doesn't care about the magazine capacity. Light machine guns and heavy machine guns are two different things. The latter consumes too much. If it weren't for this war, he wouldn't even want to equip it.  , so in the follow-up transactions with Germany, they did not propose to continue to purchase Maxim. Instead, they put forward strict requirements for production and subsequent improvements.

    "This gun has few parts. After using the piece-rate system you mentioned, Commander, one can now be produced every three days. This is because the workers are not skilled. One gun a day can be guaranteed for three to five months." Several people walked towards the gun.  Walking to the artillery factory, you can see soldiers from the garrison camp with loaded guns and ammunition guarding the place. Because Yang Qiu valued this place very much, Xiao Anguo also specially stationed several new military camps nearby to take charge of night patrols, just to avoid being afraid of someone.  do

    Ten speeds a month is really nothing, but if Su Hongsheng hadn't built a similar Madsen, he might not have been able to build it in three months. It was purely manual and it was the first time it was made. This speed is already very good. Wait for Germany  The equipment arrived, and Austro-Hungarian technicians were used as guidance. After the ammunition calibers were unified, they could be upgraded to create better Bren types.  (If you want to read text novels, go to ¡®¡¯)

    After entering the factory area, the dirty and messy situation improved a lot. Although the front line was tight, Yang Qiu never forgot that this is currently the best equipment manufacturing base in China, so he spent a lot of effort to operate according to his understanding of a modern factory.  After the reorganization, not only the piece-work system was adopted, but also each workshop was subdivided. Recently, a research and development team composed entirely of master craftsmen was established.

    Seeing that he was not picky like the first time he came here, Su Hongsheng finally felt a lot more at ease. He rubbed his hands and asked, "Commander, I heard Xiaohu said that you purchased a batch of new machines from the Germans?"

    Yang Qiu was slightly stunned. Only a few core personnel knew about the deal with Germany, especially the sale of British secrets. He immediately looked at Zhang Wenjing, who quickly said: "I told Xiaohu, Commander  We spent a lot of money to buy machinery and equipment, so I asked Hanyang to prepare it so that we would not be in a hurry."

    Hearing that he deliberately said that he spent money through normal business channels, Yang Qiu was relieved and said: "I bought some. The total amount of equipment is about two Hanyang, all of which are one."

    "That's more than two Hanyangs!" Before he finished speaking, several stewards jumped up immediately. What is the scale of Hanyang?  Zhang Zhidong worked hard and spent millions to achieve today's scale, but Yang Qiu actually bought two of them with ease!  Could he be related to the German Emperor?  Su Hongsheng glanced at the German bodyguards following him from a distance.

    "There is no problem with the machines and equipment. They are all the latest models. Germany will send at least two hundred technicians to stay for three years. As for whether you can learn them all, it depends on you." Yang Qiu said: "In addition, such a large-scale  It¡¯s not like Hanyang can roll it out all the time, so I¡¯ve asked Ma Kui to go to Chongqing to select a site and prepare to build a new factory there with the Sichuan Manufacturing Bureau as the team.¡±

    Su Hongsheng and others had no objection to going to Chongqing to build a new factory, but they were very unhappy if the Sichuan Manufacturing Bureau could be used as the team. They immediately said: "Commander, the Sichuan Manufacturing Bureau has been out of work for a long time. The guns and ammunition made before were not up to standard, and the workers and technicians were also unqualified."  Not worth much use."

    They didn't tell lies. The late Qing Dynasty was not standing still in modern industry. It was true that many machine manufacturing bureaus were opened, but the levels were uneven. Generally speaking, Hanyang, Jiangnan and Dagu were the strongest. Mawei in Fujian was mainly engaged in shipbuilding.  As for the level of Jinling, Guangdong, and Sichuan, they are all very poor. In recent years, except for the production of black powder, they have basically stopped, but there is nothing he can do. This is the current situation of domestic industry. It is better to have learned something superficially than not to have learned anything at all.

    Su Hongsheng was the most anxious, already betting his entire future on it, and said anxiously: "Commander, don't worry, I have already sent a telegram to a group of old guys who stayed in Germany. Many of them are willing to come, and several have already set off."  , if you think it¡¯s okay, you might as well leave it to them.¡±

    "Now that the whole country is in turmoil, Shanghai and Jiangsu and Zhejiang will be in chaos sooner or later, especially since there are many overseas technicians in Jiangnan. We can take this opportunity to recruit a batch of them at a high price. After the German technicians arrive and train for two or three years, there should be a few  He is now the one who is in charge." Zhang Wenjing also said: "In addition, I think we should also take action on the property rights issue of Hanyang Factory. Now that you, the commander, are in charge of the military, Wuchang will have to endure it for the time being, so the restructuring should be completed as soon as possible, so that no matter who is in power in the future  Can¡¯t even take it away.¡±

    What the two said touched Yang Qiu's heart. He had long wanted to take action against the Hanyang Factory and its affiliated steel pharmaceutical factory. However, because the party members and the old fox were so powerful in the past, they would inevitably be opposed if they proposed it. But now he has taken action.  hold military power, as long as the war is not over, they must act appropriately on this matter.At the very least, it would be better to give it some dry shares than just in case Yuan Datou or Sun Dapao had a whim and mortgaged it to foreigners.  As for skilled workers, he has also considered it, but Shanghai is far away from Hubei and the Chinese people have a strong sense of rurality, so they may not be able to attract so many people, but this is the only way at the moment.  After this war is over, the long-term solution is to establish technical schools and polytechnic universities.

    "You guys should discuss these matters with Shen Shukai. As soon as possible, Hanyang and Steel Pharmaceutical Factory will be transferred to my name and restructured into Hubei Industrial Company. I will go and say hello to Governor Li." As soon as Yang Qiu finished speaking, he saw Chen Zutao's hot head.  Khan ran over, and Zhang Wenjing was the first to ask: "Guofu, what's the matter?"

    As soon as the headquarters was established, he was transferred back to the Secretariat as military secretary. This young man is still a "little angry youth". Wu Shengguan's experience made Yang Qiu his idol, and he immediately saluted: "  Commander! Xiaogan reports that Beiyang has begun to attack Xiaochang."

    "Come here."

    Zhang Wenjing smiled bitterly and said: "The generals of the world's soldiers and horses still can't satisfy Yuan Gongbao's appetite. He is showing his loyalty to the Manchus."
