    His Majesty the Emperor rejected Neiji Okamura's request after asking Hideki Tojo, which proves that His Excellency the Prime Minister also did not agree to produce these weapons.  So Okamura Ningji's last request was ruthlessly rejected.

    In fact, not only the two top decision makers of the Japanese Empire and those in the navy, but most of the army chiefs also opposed the imitation of these weapons, although those who watched the demonstration did admit that these weapons seized by the communist army were irrelevant.  It is very powerful in terms of performance and power. It has an effective range of 400 meters, can shoot all 30 rounds of bullets in the magazine within a few seconds, and smash all wooden targets within 200 meters into sieves.  The automatic rifles surprised them even more, but these bigwigs still did not agree to let the Japanese army install these weapons.

    There are three reasons: First, because of insufficient resources, after the outbreak of the Pacific War, all of Japan's war resources began to be tilted towards the navy. After all, in the vast sea, warships and carrier-based aircraft are the main force of operations.  In the case of the artillery, tanks, aircraft and various ammunition needed by a large number of troops, the Japanese Army has no extra resources to produce these automated weapons.

    The second point is due to insufficient production capacity. As the display continues to expand and more and more troops are invested, Japan¡¯s military potential has been tapped. In order to ensure the production of technical weapons with higher combat value, Japan has to  Reduce the production of small arms and their ammunition.  In 1941, the number of bullets produced in Japan was only 490 million rounds, which was equivalent to one-twelfth of that of the Soviet Union.  With this output, if an automatic rifle with a rate of fire ten or even dozens of times that of the Type 38 is installed, it is estimated that government officials in charge of military manufacturing will be cornered by army generals who want bullets every minute.  seppuku.

    The third point is that those army bosses feel that it is completely unnecessary. After all, they have already captured more than half of China and the entire Southeast Asia by relying on the simple 38-type and grenadier. They use automatic light weapons to deal with those who are not even equipped with rifles.  The Chinese army is too wasteful.

    In the real history, the main reasons why Japan did not fully install automatic weapons are these three points. Lack of resources, low production capacity, poor and weak opponents, and arrogant mentality made millions of Japanese soldiers hold old weapons.  The bolt-action rifle has been used for five years. It was not until 1943, when these little devils were beaten by American soldiers with absolute firepower superiority on the Pacific battlefield, that they woke up and developed a semi-automatic rifle, but it was too late.  , more scarce resources and low military technology seriously affected the development time. When the Japanese army surrendered, only 125 of the four-type semi-brake rifle imitated by Garland were completely manufactured.

    Neiji Okamura, who was disappointed, did not say anything until the end of the meeting. When His Majesty got up to leave, he was the first to walk out of the meeting hall.

    But as soon as he reached the gate, he was stopped by Umezu Yoshijiro who was chasing him from behind: 'Okamura-kun, you and I haven't seen each other for many years, if you have time, let's get together at my house!  "

    Although Umezu Yoshijiro is the senior of Okamura Neiji, and they worked together in the Kwantung Army and the Chinese Dispatch Army, but the two did not have any personal education. Umezu Yoshijiro's sudden invitation made me Okamura Neiji stunned.  I don't know what kind of medicine he sells in the gourd, but Umezu Yoshijirou is one level older than him now, so he has no choice but to agree.

    The two of them sat in the same car and headed to Umezu Yoshijiro's mansion. After getting off the car, the two walked into the quaint three-story building hand in hand, and went straight to the study under the guidance of Umezu Yoshijiro.

    Not long after being seated, a servant served wine and dishes. From the dishes alone, it can be seen that the newly promoted Commander-in-Chief of the Kwantung Army is much more generous than the Prime Minister. All the dishes are sashimi and Japanese favorites.  Yusheng, among them, there is fugu sashimi, which is known as "you can eat delicious food once, and you will never miss the fish in the world", and it is the king of fugu known by the Japanese - tiger puffer fish.

    After the wine and dishes were set, Umezu Yoshijiro picked up the bottle of sake with the golden chrysanthemum logo on it, poured a full glass for everyone, and then raised his glass as the host and said, "Tojo-kun, although you and I have known each other for many years, we are still here.  We have worked together, but this seems to be the first time to drink alone, come on, first let us drink this cup together for the glory of His Majesty the Emperor."

    "Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" The two shouted respectfully, and then drank a toast.

    As soon as the wine entered the stomach, there was a clear and rich aftertaste on the tip of his tongue. Neji Okamura sighed secretly: "This tribute sake exclusively for the royal family is really extraordinary!"  Picking up a piece of puffer fish meat from the dinner plate, he chewed it slowly in his mouth. Feeling the sensation of the elastic fresh fish meat colliding with his teeth back and forth, Okamura Ningji let out a pleasant hum and praised: "This tiger puffer fish  It really is extremely delicious, I am afraid there is no one in this world.The Liaoning Arsenal is the original Fengtian Arsenal. After Zhang Zuolin came to power in Liaoning, he spent huge sums of money to build a military factory on the basis of the original Fengtian machinery. After continuous investment and expansion, by 1931, the factory had already  It has eight branch factories including gun building, cannon making, shell making, and steelmaking, with more than 8,000 pieces of equipment, an annual output of more than 30,000 rifles, more than 1,000 light machine guns, more than 500 various artillery pieces, and more than 10 million bullets  There are more than 60,000 rounds of shells and shells, and they can also repair technical weapons such as trucks and tanks.  It was the largest arsenal in Asia at that time.

    After 9.18, Japan expanded the arsenal, increasing the number of machines to more than 10,000, and expanding it into eight departments and six manufacturing plants, and also built an anti-aircraft gun factory.  At its peak, it had more than 1,200 employees and more than 30,000 workers.  It is an ordnance group with strong production capacity and the highest technology outside of Japan.

    Although the Liaoning Arsenal is under the management of the Japanese military, it has always been managed by the Kwantung Army because it is located in Manchuria, and all the products it produces are directly equipped to the Kwantung Army.  It is precisely because of this that Umezu Yoshijiro has the confidence to imitate those weapons.

    "I can give you weapons, but after mass production, I want 20,000 rifles, 3,000 light machine guns, 1,000 rocket launchers, some bullets and shells!"  Naturally, I will not let go of this opportunity to rip off."

    "10,000 rifles, 1,000 light machine guns, 500 bazookas, and I can only give them to you after I have equipped a division!" Umezu Yoshijiro began to bargain.

    "Just do as much as you said, but you must give it to me first. You also know that those Tuba roads in Shandong have been restless recently!"

    "Deal!" Yoshijiro Umezu readily agreed.

    Immediately, the two looked at each other and smiled, raised their glasses to clink, and drank it down in one gulp!  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
