Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

 Chapter 16 New Decision-Making and Scientific Research

 What is unlocked closely behind new decisions are scientific research projects.

 Huang He sent all three small lathes to the rear area of ​​Qin Province. After all, the base area he was currently in was not safe and there was a possibility of being transferred at any time.

 The copper needed in the base area was mainly met by cutting telephone lines from the Japanese army, as well as copper coins, incense burners, candlesticks and other copper utensils donated by the people.

 In order to encourage people to actively donate military materials, the base area has adopted a paid purchase method. The Logistics Department has specially divided clear purchase prices for 19 types of military materials.

 However, relying on the copper obtained from the private factory trade and the location of the copper mine in the rear area, there is no shortage of raw materials for the time being.

 Now everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.

Huanghe finally decided to put the expansion of the bullet factory on the agenda, and strive to get the entire army and divisions away from the transitional period of reloading bullets as soon as possible.

 On November 29, the original three scientific research projects were completed.

Considering that the current troops do not have air supremacy and no organic anti-aircraft firepower, if a factory is built, it is likely to be targeted by the enemy's air power.

 In this case, a research option would be useful.

“Discrete Industry Type 1: By decentralizing industry, we can ensure that it is difficult for the enemy to target each of our precious factories in wartime.

 Time required for study: 70 days

Effect:

 Regional maximum industrial value: +20%

 Production efficiency maintenance: +10%

 Basic production efficiency: +5%

 Factory output: +10%

Factory vulnerability to bombing: -15%"

Discrete industry is very suitable for the motherland, which has a vast territory and abundant resources. It not only improves production efficiency, but also protects the safety of the factory area to a certain extent.

 It is a big loss to keep using private factories in exchange for raw materials.

Even though the current copper reserves are not bad, with the development of rear industrial areas, independent mining of copper mines is unavoidable.

 At present, only very primitive methods can be used to mine in the rear areas.

In this era when there are no excavators or drilling rigs, comrades rely solely on two hands and a pickaxe.

The motherland has a vast territory. Although some resources are not very rich, they are basically complete in terms of variety. If these things can be used rationally, the starting point for industrialization will be very high.

 Although basic disciplines in the current base area are backward, there are still some ambitious young people and technicians at the high-end level.

 It’s a pity that there are no professional talents in mining engineering.

 Huanghe has focused its attention on this scientific research.

  Excavation technology type 1:

 Based on advances in mining technology, it has become possible to mine resources in locations that were previously inaccessible.

Effect: Friends who had not seen each other for a long time finally returned from the European continent to the embrace of their motherland. Looking at their devastated hometown, they decided to dedicate everything they had learned.

 Obtain one mine construction technician, coal mining technician, ventilation technician, geological technician, surveying technician, and electromechanical technician.

 Time required for study: 70 days

  Strategic resource acquisition rate: +10%》

Of course, lathe-related technology needs to continue to be researched, and it is still far from assembly line operations.

“Improved machine tools: Although the machine factories in the rear area can provide us with the equipment needed by some factories, the industrialization of the base area cannot be achieved with just one equipment factory.

Turret-type hexagonal lathes have proven to be indispensable for mass production. Ensuring efficient manufacturing and use of turret lathes will bring significant advantages to the industrialization of the base area.

 Effect: Turret lathe, drawing +1

 Time required for study: 70 days

 Maximum production efficiency: +10%》

 After allocating scientific research slots, Huanghe looked at the decision tree again.

 In fact, he really wants to build some tanks or a tank factory.

 As the king of land warfare, tanks are very suitable for the current battlefield, and motorized and mechanized troops are the future trend.

 First of all, the Japanese do not have any anti-tank weapons at the current stage. Before the official war with the Ugly people, the funny anti-tank mine was not developed.

  Secondly, the Japanese tanks are mainly light tanks.

However, due to the lack of anti-tank weapons in various war zones in the country, these small tanks and Japanese industrial scrap metal are running rampant on the land of China. Once this thing appears on the frontal battlefield, comrades can only choose to kill it with human lives.

If we can get some tanks of European origin, it will definitely be a dimensionality reduction blow.

 Finally, it was because the Eighth Route Army was not short of oil at all.

 Records of oil in the rear area can be traced back to the Han Dynasty, and are mentioned in Ban Gu's "Hanshu" of the Eastern Han Dynasty and Shen Kuo's "Mengxi Bi Tan" of the Song Dynasty.

 The petroleum industry was started in the late Qing Dynasty.

In 1905, the Qing government allocated funds to establish the "Yangchang Petroleum Official Factory" in Yanchang. It was at this time that the modern domestic petroleum industry began.

 In 1935, the troops arrived at Yanchang.

 With the recognition of comrades from oilfield workers, Yanchang Oilfield is still operating normally. Before the Yumen Oilfield was built, it was the only oil field in China.

  However, a tank cannot be started just by loading on any person. The current educational level of comrades in the base area is generally not high, and the cost of learning is too high, let alone the coordination of tanks and tanks.

Moreover, Huang He has always remembered what the professor in his previous life told him: in everything he does, he must be down-to-earth and not too ambitious.

 The food must be eaten one bite at a time. The technology tree can be slightly skewed, but the composition of the troops cannot be skewed.

 Infantry is always the top priority.

Huang He could only reluctantly give up the tank line and continue to develop the army's light and heavy weapons.

“Focus on the development of light weapons: Given that individual weapons are still the basic equipment of our army, our country’s limited resources must be mainly invested in advanced firearms equipment.

Effect:

 After France surrendered:

  MAS-36 rifle production line, drawing*1

FM-24/29 light machine gun production line, drawing*1

 Get access to subsequent unlocking of Gallic Chicken Army weapons》

Huang He is still very satisfied with the benefits of this decision, because he knows that the new equipment of Gaul Chicken during World War II is not bad.

They dare to claim to be the strongest army in Europe, and their military technology must be second to none. The functions of many standard firearms are actually ahead of Europe's.

  However, the new weapons were not mass-produced, resulting in the troops not being able to change equipment quickly enough. In the end, Santoku was beaten to the doorstep. Most of the soldiers were still using antiques from the First World War.

The Gallic Chicken was defeated too quickly, resulting in the firearm's excellent performance not being able to be used. A lot of new equipment was confiscated even though it was 90% new, and in the end it was a waste of money.

 The bullet caliber of these two weapons is the legal 7.5×54 mm machine rifle ammunition. In the chaotic bullet caliber of the Gallic Chicken Army, it is a breath of fresh air.

  The MAS-36 rifle was born to replace the previous Lebel M1886 bolt-action rifle.

This new weapon has excellent human-machine efficiency, is easy to use, has high accuracy and is low-cost.

This gun is equipped with a bayonet. When not in use, the bayonet is inserted into a metal tube under the barrel like a purge. When in use, it can be pulled out, turned around and inserted.

Moreover, the bolt of this gun is very smooth, and a skilled warrior can turn it into a human semi-automatic.

  She can be said to be the best large bolt in World War II, the last glory of the bolt-action rifle.

“The gun is a good gun, but its first users were cowards. The blood of French men seems to have been shed during the First World War, so I’ll just give it a try.”

The FM24/29 light machine gun is to replace the stuck king Shaosha. Shaosha really has too many slots!

 It refers to the ammunition feeding method of the Danish Madsen light machine gun, placing the magazine on the top of the receiver. Using a 25-round magazine, the theoretical rate of fire is about 450 to 550 rounds per minute.

 It is worth mentioning that this gun is designed with two triggers, one for semi-automatic firing and the other for fully automatic firing.

FM24/29 is the main light machine gun of the Gallic Army. It actually looks quite similar to Bren, ZB26 and Type 99. But there is no handle, so you need to hold it when firing from the waist. This light machine gun can be regarded as the light of France.

And the subsequent unlocking permissions are also of interest to Huang He. After all, mature equipment is better than his own exploration at this stage.

“Although the research slot can also research local weapons, there is really nothing good about it. If you are interested, you can look for pictures online.”

 It is already December 1939, and a new wave of Japanese raids is about to come.

  The 386th Brigade received a batch of new weapons, and the combat effectiveness of the three regiments was improved.

“I don’t know what kind of changes will happen to Li Yunlong this time when he meets Bantian United. I hope he can gain some energy and be smarter, so that he won’t have to come to the quilt factory and hang out in front of me every day.”

Huang He touched his chin and said to himself.

It’s very painful to write, so I decided to skip a section tomorrow, directly to Cangyun Ridge!
