During the War of Resistance Against Japan: After being scattered at Cangyunling, he brought back a

"Zhang Qing!"

"The Huangdong Arsenal was able to be built up to its current state from a state of extreme poverty and backwardness!"

"It is also the largest arsenal in the rear of our Eighth Route Army!"

“But it can’t be any more difficult than that now, can it?” Xie Jinyuan said in a deep voice.

"Commander Xie! Even so!"

“But the scale of both…” Zhang Qing adjusted his eye sockets, looking troubled.

The Fengtian Arsenal was dozens of times larger than the Huangdong Arsenal, and the weapons and equipment produced by the Huangdong Arsenal were relatively simple.

Most of them are old-fashioned Hanyang-made rifles. Although the production line of the Zhongzheng rifle has been introduced from other places, it has not yet been put into practice.

The Fengtian Arsenal, however, was different. It produced guns and artillery of all calibers, and even light and heavy weapons of varying degrees.

The gap is just too big.

But compared to the conditions at the Huangdong Arsenal, Zhang Qing was constantly struggling internally!

After returning from studying abroad, I was determined to make a great contribution and save the country!

What lies before us is clearly a major opportunity.

Fengtian Arsenal!

It ranks among the top in the entire East Asia region!

A few minutes later, it seemed as if some major decision had been made!

"Thank you, Commander! I will do my best!"

Zhang Qing took a deep breath and said.

"it is good!"

After hearing Zhang Qing finish speaking, Xie Jinyuan subconsciously let out a breath.

There are countless people in the new three armies who can lead troops into battle, but when it comes to arsenals, you really can't find a single one.

"Do you have any other requirements for the entire arsenal?" Xie Jinyuan then asked in a deep voice.

"Thank you, Commander!"

"Compared to my previous work environment, I have no requirements anymore!"

"The only thing that matters is scale!"

"Don't worry about the scale! I will invest gradually!"

"I assure you, within a month, the scale will more than double!"

Xie Jinyuan simply waved his hand and said.

"Double the size?"

Zhang Qing spoke tremblingly.

He was clearly shocked by what Commander Xie had said, and Commander Xie seemed to be more like a nouveau riche.

But what Zhang Qing didn't know was that the entire New Third Army was now indeed a nouveau riche.

He is much richer than Yan Laoxi.

After all, Yan Xishan represented the entire Second World War zone.

In contrast, the new Third Army only needs one person to be full so that the whole family isn't hungry.

After several major battles, they made a fortune.

"Twice isn't enough?"

"Then three times?" Xie Jinyuan asked, his brows furrowing instinctively.

While it is better to expand the size of the arsenal as much as possible, expanding too quickly is obviously not good; haste makes waste.

"No!"

"No!"

"Commander Xie! That's enough!"

"But Commander Xie, the expansion involves not only funds, but also production lines!"

“This will take time and there are channels!” Zhang Qing said, taking a deep breath.

The international community now has very strict requirements in this regard; it's not something that can be achieved simply by having money.

Commander Xie only cared about the result, ignoring the difficulties involved.

Seemingly sensing the confusion in Commander Xie's eyes, Zhang Qing continued, "Commander Xie!"

"The production line is what you see right in front of you!"

"Take the simplest Hanyang rifle as an example; it requires more than dozens of different components!"

"This also includes subsequent calibration, repairs, and blueprints, etc."

Zhang Qing shook his head helplessly.

Expanding staff is a good thing, but sometimes it's simply a matter of having the will but not the ability.

"This!"

"They really are hard to find now!"

"However, this thing is of little use to the new Third Army now!"

"Zhang Qing, what I mean is, from now on, the Fengtian Arsenal should abandon these basic weapons and equipment!"

"Concentrate production capacity on heavy weapons!"

"For example, tanks, and artillery with a caliber of 75mm or larger!"

Xie Jinyuan tried to speak.

"Heavy weapons?"

"tank?"

"Artillery with a caliber of 75mm or larger?"

Zhang Qing seemed not to have heard clearly, staring wide-eyed at Commander Xie in front of him.

Artillery with a caliber of 75mm or larger is possible.

But tanks?

Let alone the Fengtian Arsenal, there are only a handful of companies in the entire world that can independently research and produce this thing.

"Correct!"

"And what about armored infantry vehicles, Katyusha rocket launchers, oh right~!"

"And semi-automatic weapons too!"

Xie Jinyuan said in a deep voice.

"Thank you, Commander!"

“You…” Zhang Qing paused awkwardly before speaking.

She even subconsciously looked towards Zhao Gang beside her.

"okay!"

"Old Xie! You can't rush to run after you've only just learned to crawl!"

"You have to give your comrades time to grow!" Zhao Gang said irritably.

Tanks and armored vehicles everywhere – don't scare the young comrade away, or you'll really lose both your wife and your army!

"Cough cough~"

"Commander Xie, what Zhengwei said is actually right!"

"Although the facilities at the Fengtian Arsenal are now very complete, it will still be difficult to master such high-tech weapons and equipment!"

"It can't be done in a short time!"

"The main problems are with the production line and the blueprints!" Zhang Qing coughed lightly.

"What if I said I could solve the production line and blueprint issues?"

Xie Jinyuan spoke slowly.

"Commander Xie! What did you say?"

"Can you solve this?"

Zhang Qing suddenly looked at Xie Jinyuan, his eyes widening.

"if not?"
