Chapter 140 Advance by leaps and bounds (1)

After Ren Bishi arranged everyone's work, everyone flocked out of the door of the "hall", and the personnel from the counterpart units divided up a group of members of the Anti-Japanese United Army. Duan Baoyan and He Deqiu led several soldiers to support Ma Qian'an, Zhang Yuan, and Cui Ximing on the horse, for fear that Ren Bishi would say something else and regret it. He urged him to "Go quickly, go quickly."

Ma Qian'an rode on the horse, but the horse was disobedient and jumped around. Ma Qian'an tried his best to control the reins, twisting his body hard and bid farewell to Ren Bishi and Wei Zhengmin who were walking out of the door, and shouted with a wry smile, "Secretary, then I'll leave. Remember to give me a notice in advance when I return!"

Ren Bishi had already understood Duan Baoyan's small movements and explained to Wei Zhengmin, who was stunned: "I have no idea. If I force the horse to stay, they should sue me and say that I don't support their work anymore. Look, these guys robbed you more than that time they robbed their new wife."

Wei Zhengmin closed his mouth and accepted the explanation, thinking, "I'm just like this if I want talent, right?" So he waved his hand and said goodbye to several people, "I know, when I get to the place, work with peace of mind, don't cause trouble for the comrades. If you can wash your clothes yourself!"

Ma Qian'an turned his horse's head and whipped the stubborn horse hard. The horse was in pain and stood alone with the trend. He whipped a long and angry neighing, and kicked Ma Qian'an out of the air. He almost threw everyone forward, wanting to rely on the crowd to subdue the fierce horse.

The fierce horse neighed again, jumped out of the crowd, and roared away like lightning.

Everyone was shocked and looked at each other. After a long time, Duan Baoyan glared at the warrior responsible for taking horses. "Xiao Zhang, what did you do? Why did you bring such a fierce horse? I'll ride before I'm taming it? Do you know how important my guests are. If something happens, I'll punish you!"

The soldier Xiao Zhang was sweating all over his head, looked at his angry boss and stuttered, "Manager, factory manager, you can't blame me. This is a war horse that just assigned to our factory. It is logical that he should be tamed. Who would have thought of this?"

The horse just arrived at Ansai Steel Factory yesterday, and there was no owner. The soldier in charge of the horses heard that the horse was a Japanese Oriental war horse seized from the front. He thought it was a familiar horse and didn't care. Today, he gave it to Xiao Zhang to receive guests. He walked along the way with an empty saddle. No one found any abnormality when he came to the airport behind other horses.

During the war of aggression against China, in addition to more than 20,000 Japanese troops, there were also hundreds of thousands of Oriental horses on the land of China, responsible for the role of mobile operations and baggage transportation. The 6th Army of the Japanese Army was not very mechanized, and transportation was basically based on horses. A standard main division was equipped with more than 7,000 horses. It was no surprise that frequent combat and were seized on the battlefield.

"Chasing!" Duan Baoyan waved his hand, turned over and rode his "BMW", and chased Ma Qian'an first. After chasing for ten miles, a small mountain was found at the foot of the stubborn horse. Ma Qian'an stood calmly in front of the stubborn horse, pinching his waist with both hands and chatting and cursing. He Deqiu's ears were very useful, and he was hearing Ma Qian'an's "dictionary" of horse taming.

"Ah, you smack Xipi! You're still playing this trick with me? Not to mention you, even if your dad comes, you have to be obedient. Oh, you are a little gossip!"

Good! What a little shit? This is an Oriental horse weighing over a thousand pounds. It was so subdued? He Deqiu was curious and rushed to the ground, slid his saddle and asked anxiously, "How is it? Isn't hurt? I'm so worried!"

Seeing that everyone was running forward, Ma Qian'an stopped teaching the dejected tall horse, and happily returned to He Deqiu, "It's okay, look good, it's not possible at the beginning, I suffered a little loss."

He Deqiu looked at the nearby land in a mess, and it was obvious that one man and one horse had a "brutal fight".

Duan Baoyan felt relieved and his eyes turned, "What about later?" Duan Baoyan wanted Ma Qian'an to show off, so as to reduce his guilt. He hurriedly used the "Come on" magic weapon to let Ma Qian'an continue to talk.

"Later? I slapped it more than a dozen times in the face, and I'm honest. Look, I'm honest! If you don't give him some excellence, it really doesn't take us seriously. This devil horse, like the *** devil, just deserves a beating!" Ma Qian'an was very excited.

"Oh, so, at the beginning, horses were better than you, but later, you were better than horses!" Duan Baoyan continued to state the "facts" and wanted to appease Ma Qian'an.

Hey? Hey hey? This seems like the joke in later generations! You are not as good as beasts, you are better than beasts! Ma Qian'an looked at Duan Baoyan's sincere face and knew that he originally wanted to praise him, but he seemed not very good at it.

Seeing Ma Qian'an lifting his depressed face, Duan Baoyan suddenly realized that there was something wrong with his words, and then explained loudly: "No, I mean, it is stupider than you, hey, not, I mean you are more straightforward than it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Baoyan twitched his mouth gently in annoyance. Isn’t it the same? Comparing others with beasts, it’s not good for anyone to win. Duan Baoyan stared at Ma Qian'an with an embarrassment on his face.

Ma Qian'an bowed and said, "Brother, please spare me!"

Most of the people of Yan'an in this era are simple and have no time to study the knowledge of flattery. Duan Baoyan is just one. He often praises people for short, and saying a few more words will not be fulfilled.

There was no danger and a stir. Except for sending one person back to Ren Bishi to report the message, the rest of the people came up to join the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces and entered the Ansai Steel Factory.

When they arrived at the place, everyone welcomed several people into the factory director's office like a star. Ma Qian'an took a look and the factory director He Guozhen was not there, so he asked, "Old Duan, where is Lao He?"

Duan Baoyan arranged for the soldiers to make tea while replying: "Old He went to support Huangya Cave a few days ago, and repaired two machines for them and led the team away. Now I will receive you throughout the journey."

Ma Qian'an noticed that Duan Baoyan carefully took out half a bag of tea from the drawer, paused for a while, and reached out with a "very generous" hand to a little soldier, "Put it, put more, put half of it."

The little soldier said with great joy. Duan Baoyan quietly instructed, "Xiao Li, this is a guest, don't drink too much."

The little soldier Li Xiaohan, who was told, nodded with a red face.

This soldier Ma Qian'an knew. When he came last time, he knew that the little guy from the south was from the south. His hometown was a tea-producing place and he liked to drink tea. Judging from the appearance of Duan Baoyan's special instructions, I believe everyone hasn't drunk tea for a long time.

Ma Qian'an scratched his head, regretting that he had not brought some tea from S1. It was not that he had thought that tea was better than China at the beginning. S1's tea was also imported, and it was so expensive that Ma Qian'an couldn't bear to spend more money.

Although I didn't bring tea, I brought some other gifts, including a whole box of Russian cigarettes and famous Russian specialties, most of which were eaten. However, these things should be distributed by Wei Zhengmin, and I guess they have already taken the way back to Yan'an City with him.

Ma Qian'an fumbled around for a while, took out a pack of Russian cigarettes from his pocket and placed them on the table, "Come on, come on, try this foreign cigarette first." Ma Qian'an occasionally smoked one or two cigarettes, but was not addicted.

Seeing Ma Qian'an take out the cigarette, Duan Baoyan immediately became less ashamed. He waved his hand and pulled out several cigarettes from the cabinet next to him, full of pride, "Come on, you can try this Japanese cigarette, they are all given by the soldiers who come to pick up goods. The battle has been tight during this period and a lot of it has been seized."

Ma Qian'an and Zhang Yuan each took one of them and lit it without rushing after smelling it. Seeing that the Anti-Japanese United Army members didn't seem to be very interested in Japanese cigarettes, Duan Baoyan blinked, "Look at me, you don't lack this thing, what should I do?" Duan Baoyan was shy about not having good things to receive guests.

"Okay, OK!" Ma Qian'an began to smooth things over. "We are not here to eat and drink, but to do practical things. Old Duan, if you are polite, you will really treat us as outsiders. There is someone here who will work for you for a long time." As he said that, Ma Qian'an pushed Cui Ximing to Duan Baoyan.

Cui Ximing was watching the border area in the simple display cabinet to build a "grenade". The grenade was not loaded, and the wooden handle was hung virtually on the shell. Taking off the wooden handle, Cui Ximing used a light to aim at the shell with one eye, looking confused.

The grenade shell is poured with sand. Strangely, there are no grooves that should be displayed by prefabricated fragments inside. How many pieces can this explosion explode? Cui Ximing wondered.

Unexpectedly, Ma Qian was pulled over, holding the shell in his hand and holding it in front of him, staring at the person in front of him, but he didn't react for a moment.

Duan Baoyan immediately noticed this situation and immediately praised him, "Look, the technical talents are starting to study as soon as they came. We are short of a lot. Where can I find such good comrades? Welcome! We are no longer outsiders."

He Deqiu interjected next to him, "Deputy General Manager Cui, do you think there is any problem with this grenade?"

Cui Ximing was stunned, blinked a few times, and then woke up after Ma Qian'an's prompt. He was now the deputy chief engineer of Ansai Steel Factory. He hurriedly said modestly, "Just call me Cui Gong, just call me Cui Gong."

"This grenade, oh!" Ma Qian'an sighed, a copycat version.

A hint of shame appeared on Duan Baoyan's face, "This is good. The iron raw materials are too lacking. We can blow up more than a dozen pieces of fragments when we use the method!"

Oh, fortunately, it’s not too timely. According to the memoirs of the Old Eighth Route Army, some earth-made grenades can only explode in half. This kind of grenades can explode in more than a dozen pieces, which has indeed made progress. However, according to the Japanese, it is still too bad. The Japanese can explode in more than 60 pieces. If compared with the later grenades, it would be even less worth mentioning. The later grenades can explode in small fragments of more than 1,000 o.1 grams-o.2 grams.

"Don't we have a rolling mill? I saw that the grenades of Russia and RB were stamped with steel plates and prefabricated grooves, so that they could be powerful when they exploded." Cui Ximing was also very straightforward.

Duan Baoyan said: "We also know that there is a steel rolling mill here, which has to be tightly attached to the firearm production line. Besides, we are reluctant to use good steel on grenades. Now gun production is important, and there is a lot of shortage in front of us."

Duan Baoyan said it was reasonable. In the shortage of steel, grenades, something that can never be recycled if thrown out, cannot compete for steel with reusable guns. He can only be wronged by using pig iron.
