Chapter 1360 Principles of new military production capacity upgrade
Xuande heard Qu Mao throw the question to the logistics department, and hurriedly said: "My lord, at the meeting on November 19, my subordinates have already assured my lord that even if the Firearms Army adds 10 million new soldiers, the Under the premise of not affecting the transaction with the Fulu Empire, the 10 million new fighters will be provided with equipment and weapons on time.
Of course, although Lord Chafidel mentioned the figure of 15 million, his subordinates believe that the number of new fighters is only about 2 million more, and the logistics department under him can also ensure that the production capacity of weapons and equipment is sufficient to produce them in place in time.
Although it is clear that the expansion of the firearms army will be accelerated in the 12th year of Tianxuan, the subordinates believe that the number of new soldiers in the additionally expanded firearms army has not exceeded expectations, so there is no pressure on the supply of the new military industry.
Even if the production capacity of the new military industry of the logistics department cannot be fully supplied, the subordinates believe that the Firearms Army is not chosen by God to replenish so many new soldiers in the first three months of the 12th year. Our logistics department can continue to expand the new military industry factory, and it will definitely be able to make up for the production capacity , adults do not need to worry about the supply of the new military industry of the Ministry of Logistics. "
Qu Mao nodded, and said: "I can be sure that the new military production capacity of the Logistics Department can satisfy the new soldiers of the Firearms Army.
Because Jidao New Military Industrial Park and Lian Dao New Military Industrial Park are supported by reinforced concrete buildings, the production capacity has increased by more than seven times.
Looking at the expansion speed of the Firearms Army alone, I think the Logistics Department is fully capable of maintaining sufficient supplies in a timely manner.
But I have two concerns: The first problem is that we only developed metal bullets at the beginning of November in the 11th year of Tianxuan. The production and processing of metal bullets are completely different from the production and processing of paper-wrapped bullets in the past. The equipment of the entire bullet factory needs to be updated.
When the production equipment is updated, it will definitely affect the production capacity of bullets, and the production of shells is also facing this problem. Moreover, the production of our bullets and shells must not only meet the training needs of the Firearms Army, but also meet the needs of the Fulu Empire, the Eastern Front and the Western Front, etc. This problem cannot be ignored.
The second problem is: each military branch should send troops to the Firearms Army for training in an organized manner, and their training weapons, ammunition, and the equipment of new weapons after returning to the various military branches after training will also be forced to a large extent. The production capacity of the new military industry has been upgraded. "
Xuande smiled and said: "My lord, don't worry.
To be honest, my lord, on the basis of Jidao New Military Industrial Park and Liandao New Military Industrial Park, a new military industrial park with production capacity not lower than Liandao has been built on Zhongdao, Bodao and Ludao respectively. In addition, in the industrial park on the southeast coast of the Tassel Empire developed by Master Su Yan, the subordinates rented an entire industrial park to produce new consumable firearms such as bullets and shells.
In terms of equipment update iterations, the subordinates have put an end to the previous package strategy, but adopted a strategy of step-by-step replacement and priority guarantee of supply.
That is, a new factory with new equipment will shut down a factory with traditional equipment. Before the new equipment factory is built and put into operation, the factory with traditional equipment will continue to produce products as usual.
Therefore, in the process of upgrading production capacity and equipment, the subordinates can at least ensure that there is a sufficient supply of traditional bullets and shells in all aspects, and that production will not decline due to equipment upgrades.
For the production of new metal bullets and metal cannonballs, the subordinates believe that the equipment will be laid in the middle of the 12th year of Tianxuan, and by the end of the 12th year of Tianxuan, all the traditional bullets and shells in use will be replaced with metal bullets and cannonballs. Metal cannonballs are not a big problem. "
Xuande said: "My lord, we are re-laying the bullet and shell production factories, not completely replicating the past production capacity, but expanding the production capacity, so my subordinates don't think there will be the problems you mentioned, my lord.
As for your second question, my lord, in addition to building three new military industrial parks on Zhongdao, Bodao and Ludao with production capacity not lower than that of the new military industrial park in Liandao, the subordinates have also established a new military industrial park on the southeast coast of the Tassel Empire. In the industrial zone built, a place was leased for the production of bullets and shells.
If the adults feel that the production capacity is still insufficient, the subordinates can continue to build a new military industrial park in the first half of the 12th year of Tianxuan.
Subordinates are now comprehensively considering the production capacity of the new military industry, not only the equipment and weapons that the Firearms Army needs now, but also your needs for updating equipment for the Army, Garrison, Imperial Guard, Magic Army and Navy soldiers.
Currently, there are 20,000 fifth-tier court guards in the Imperial Guard equipped with pistols, bullets and grenades, which has already made all the military heroes and soldiers of the traditional army envious. "
Qu Mao asked: "In late December, I discussed with Sir Mrak that a batch of firearms should be compensated to the Army, Garrison, Guards and Magic Army to make up for their excess provision of new soldiers for the Firearms Army. , Has it been implemented in place now?"
Sir Mrak hurriedly said: "My lord, the weapons and ammunition for the compensation armies have been handed over on December 27, and a total of 40,000 pistols, 400,000 rounds of pistol bullets and 100,000 grenades have been provided.
Before the Tianxuan 11th year-end summary meeting was held, the subordinates had already distributed these compensation materials to the heroes who stayed in the Holy Land. "
Xuande smiled and said: "My lord, the various military branches have only recently received these firearms and weapons for compensation, so they have not yet been equipped in the troops, so we have not included these troops in the statistics of the replacement troops for the time being.
The subordinates have already noticed this trend of change, so please don’t worry about it, my lord. "
Chafidel thought for a while and said: "My lord, Mr. Selta, there are some researchers in the logistics department of the Torch Army, and there are also some soldiers of the Firearms Army who had to be retired due to injuries on the battlefield. The subordinates think that they have used firearms after all. The weapons are more familiar.
Therefore, we can consider supporting Master Xuande to guide the production of firearms, and it is also a new method of placement for the soldiers of the Firearms Army, so..."
Qu Mao nodded, and said: "The point mentioned by Zhai Feidel is very necessary, let's arrange it immediately after the meeting between Silta and Xuande.
That's all I have to say about the Firearms Army.
Chafidel, no matter how unwilling or reluctant you are, the Firearms Army will eventually contribute to other troops. I hope you will be mentally prepared in advance. "
Chafidel said helplessly: "Yes, my lord! This subordinate understands."
