Siheyuan starts from a good life

After visiting so many places, the one that interests Jiang Yan the most is undoubtedly the birthplace of AK-47 and CL's largest firearms production base - the Izhevsk Arsenal.

This arsenal is located in the hills of the Ural Mountains outside Moscow.

There is a small town here called Izhevsk. There is an arsenal in the small town called the Izhevsk Arsenal, which mainly produces firearms. Compared with world-renowned firearms manufacturers such as German HK, Belgian Herstal (FN), American Colt, Austrian Glock, Italian Beretta, etc., the Izhevsk Arsenal is indeed unknown, but it is indeed a generation of The birthplace of the sharpshooter AK-47.

Jiang Yan originally thought this was a larger arsenal, but when he got here, he realized that this place was not that big. It was like there was a small town inside the arsenal.

There are independent shops, hospitals and almost everything you can think of. It is no exaggeration to say that this is a small society.

The guards here are very tight, and from time to time you can see groups of soldiers patrolling. At the gate, after Yaroslav, the government official who led the group, showed his ID, Jiang Yan and his team successfully entered the factory. .

Walking into the factory, you can hear the sound of rumbling machines and busy workers everywhere.

“The main weapon produced in this workshop is the Mosin-Nagant M1891/30 rifle. This rifle is a star rifle in our country. In the Great Patriotic War, we used this rifle to drive away the invaders. .”

Yaroslav, the accompanying government official, explained the scene diligently, and when he got to the emotional point, he took an unfinished rifle and made a shooting motion.

The comrades who came with Jiang Yan also listened with enthusiasm and discussed in low voices from time to time.

While discussing, I lamented the power of SL Arsenal.

Only Jiang Yan was a little disapproving. He knew that the rifle introduced by Yaroslav was currently an obsolete weapon of SL. Their current advanced rifles should be SKS semi-automatic rifles and AK-47 assault rifles.

I originally wanted to see these two firearms, but now it seems that I may not be able to fulfill my wish.

As expected, after coming out of this workshop, Jiang Yan and the others visited the Bobosha submachine gun production workshop, grenade production workshop, etc.

They even took a close tour of the production line. Looking at how this weapon was produced, although people were very enthusiastic, Jiang Yan could feel the disdain in their eyes.

Although the visit lasted for half a day, it was only a part of the workshop. One of the Chinese comrades proposed to visit other workshops, but Yaroslav cleverly covered it up.

If Jiang Yan's guess was correct, those workshops should be producing their latest weapons, SKS semi-automatic rifles and AK-47 assault rifles.

The SKS semi-automatic rifle (also known as ckc, Simonov rifle) was designed by the famous SL firearms designer Sergey Gavrilovitch Simonov during World War II and finalized in 1946.

In 1956, our country introduced a complete production line, copied it, and made slight improvements. It was finally called the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle. This rifle was the first standard rifle in our country. Its appearance changed the situation of the "IWC" brand of weapons in our country.

The AK-47 automatic rifle is a type of automatic rifle designed by SL firearms designer Mikhail Timofeevich Kalashnikov.

The AK-47 automatic rifle was finalized in 1947 and equipped with SL troops in 1949. In addition to being equipped on a large scale by the S Army, many countries in the world have also imitated or authorized the production of AK rifle series.

Because the AK-47 automatic rifle is the most commonly used and low-cost light weapon in the world, it has the characteristics of powerful firepower, easy maintenance, reliable performance, low failure rate, solid durability, and simple structure. This weapon is used by the militaries of more than 50 countries around the world. Countries around the world have produced at least 7000 million to 1.05 million guns, and later generations were known as the "King of Guns."

If volunteer soldiers had these two firearms in their hands, they would probably kill a lot of enemies on the CX battlefield.

Now Jiang Yan was struggling with whether to report these two firearms to his superiors, but after thinking about it in the blink of an eye, he decided not to report it.

At first, Jiang Yan couldn't explain the source of the information. Although AK-47 was available all over the world in later generations and could even be produced in handmade workshops, but now that the AK-47 is a new weapon with excellent performance, SL certainly doesn't want to return it. Not long after it was used, all its advantages and disadvantages were mastered by other countries.

Damage is inevitable on the battlefield. No matter how much the volunteers take good care of their weapons, there is no guarantee that they will not be captured by the M Army. As a hostile country, CL naturally does not want the M army to know its trump card.

Furthermore, they also have some small calculations. He does not want the Korean Peninsula to be occupied by the United States, but he also does not want neighboring countries to be too powerful.

So even if the country knows that it wants to buy it, SL may not sell it to us.

There are also logistical issues. This thing consumes too much bullets. Without ammunition, this thing is just a fire stick.

So you have to be tough when it comes to blacksmithing!

"Dear Davari, are these scrapped equipment?" After a sumptuous lunch in the canteen of the arsenal, Jiang Yan and the others were allowed to move around in the designated area.

Jiang Yanlai found a lot of equipment in the empty space of the factory workshop, many of which were rusty.

"Oh, dear Davari, those metal blocks are not machines. We put them here intentionally so that they can relieve the stress inside."

"You know stress! It is a force exerted by metal during the manufacturing process. It will be slowly released and change the shape of the metal."

Then he Balala explained to Jiang Yan the process of how this stress travels.

There is no need for Yaroslav to explain this stuff. Jiang Yan also knows that this is what he learned in his previous life.

He naturally knows this way to relieve stress. Currently, there are only three ways to relieve stress.

One is natural aging, which removes stress through natural placement, a method that takes too long.

The second is the most traditional and popular method - thermal aging.

The last one is to use subresonance to eliminate stress. Although this method solves the environmental protection problem of thermal aging, it is quite cumbersome to use.

Of course, what Jiang Yan is interested in now is not these big iron blocks, but the pile of equipment next to him.

"This pile of equipment is the spoils of our great Red Army's victory over Berlin and the Krupp Arsenal in Germany."

"The Krupp Arsenal is an accomplice of Germany. It is the weapons they produce that cause so many casualties to us."

"However, these machines in **Germany obviously cannot be compared with the machinery of our great SL. If they are placed here, they will only eat dust."

Jiang Yan did not listen to Yaroslav's impassioned words, but he still catered to them a few times, but his eyes did keep looking carefully at the machinery inside.

Even after getting permission, I watched it from a close distance.

The more Jiang Yan looked at it, the more surprised he became!

OMG! This old man was really wasting his wealth. Jiang Yan found lathes, milling machines, planers, drilling machines, boring machines, grinders, gear making machines, etc. from this pile of machine tools.

These machine tools can be called machine tools. To put it simply, they are machines for manufacturing machines and machinery, commonly known as industrial machine tools.
