"Click!" The shells hit several devices at the bottom of the mortar through gravity, making a slight metal sound. Then with a "bang", the shells flew towards the position not far away. "Dingdian Novel,

"I just said there would be no problem with this, you don't believe it!" Situ Lei despised the timidity of a group of artillery soldiers, and then picked up a shell and stuffed it into the muzzle again.

"Boom!" This time the shell was not fired, and it exploded directly inside the cannon barrel...

"Captain..."

When the warriors in the distance saw the scene here, they immediately ran towards the explosion center...

When the monkey on the opposite position saw this opportunity, he instantly emerged from the trench that was blown to pieces and launched a counterattack on this side...

Liu Yijiu learned from the injured soldiers that many of these mortars would become very hot when firing five or six shells, and deformation problems had begun to arise. Experienced soldiers would often stop at this time and wait until the barrel cooled down before continuing.

In this way, the continuity of artillery will form a gap. Monkey soldiers will often take this opportunity to repair fortifications or launch counter-charges. If the cannons are used alternately and the shelling takes turns, this will greatly reduce the density of the shelling and will not produce any effect at all. Those experienced soldiers of monkeys will not hide at all...

If something happens, it is often the case that the battle is very fierce. In this case, the long-range artillery support will injure the troops they attack. The only ones that can serve as support firepower are mortars and heavy machine guns.

Because the range of support for heavy machine guns is very small, they are powerless to the enemies hiding in fortifications. The only thing that can cause damage to the enemy fortifications or even during wartime is the mortar!

But this quality.

After learning about these situations, Liu Yijiu lived in the tent arranged by the Western Front Command. He did not fall asleep because of fatigue, but kept thinking about what causes such a serious quality accident.

All guns have a caliber at the beginning. This is no longer a matter of processing quality.

The industrial foundation of the Republic was established by the help of the Russians. The production of weapons and equipment was also based on their dedicated line production model. The production efficiency was relatively high and the production quality was relatively stable.

There are only two possibilities for deformation of the gun barrel based on various data and situations. The first is the heat treatment problem. The hardness of the gun steel material itself is relatively hard due to its high tungsten content. It needs to undergo several heat treatments during the processing process. Tempering, normalizing, and quenching are all to make the material structure of the gun barrel evenly and avoid the high pressure generated when the gun bomb is out of the bore to cause damage to the gun barrel and thus affecting the service life and accuracy of the gun barrel.

Another problem is the materials.

If it was really a material problem, Liu Yijiu would not dare to imagine the consequences.

In this era, the national military product production management is actually very chaotic. Not many people will strictly implement the original technical standards. Many young people have gone to the countryside, and some old technicians and managers in factories are no longer in power. Many production workers are retired from the army or directly recruited from the countryside...

Once it is really a material problem, the barrels produced by those materials will be like this.

Management is chaotic, and the batch number of these materials is not necessarily retained. Various technical materials in the production process are not necessarily retained...

In this way, the consequences...

"Comrade Liu, hurry up, the general logistics call. The Fifth Machinery Department ordered you to take a helicopter to the Eastern Front Command immediately! Something big happened there!" Liu Yijiu was considering how to track down these inferior mortars if it was a material problem. Many mortars even had a very chaotic factory number, and there was no way to track them down.

At this time, Lu Hui lifted the curtain of the tent where Liu Yijiu was with an anxious look on his face.

Liu Yijiu looked at his wrist and found that it was only 11:30 p.m.

What happened on the Eastern Front? Not all the weapons of the Ninth Court were on the Western Front. Is there something wrong with their guns?

"The 82 mortar over there was a blast. Situ Lei, the commander of the 368 Tashan Heroic Regiment, died on the spot, and many soldiers were killed and killed... General Xu Shiyou, the commander of the Eastern Front, called and scolded the rear equipment headquarters. The Fifth Machinery Department in charge of this aspect had sent people to come here by plane overnight. Minister Liu ordered you to go there overnight to investigate the situation..." Lu Hui quickly told the matter.

Liu Yijiu was stunned.

Totally dumbfounded.

This history is completely different from what he learned. The war on the southwest border started a year and a half ahead of schedule. The 368th Regiment, which had not been on the southwest battlefield, actually came. There was also a commander Situ Lei who seemed to have never heard of it. It was not killed by the enemy, but by the cannon produced by him!

Situ!

This surname alone reminds Liu Yijiu of a lot. This is an ancient family living in seclusion on the land of China. They helped the Red Army a lot before the establishment of the Republic. Some of their family’s more important young people experienced in the army and local administrative management...

This matter has become a big deal.

Indeed, in the capital, many people are frowning.

In Li Yunlong's office, an old man with extremely thin hair and all white hair stood upright with a cane, his body standing as tall as a javelin, and his face looked at Li Yunlong with a blue face.

Liu Qingshan, the Minister of the Fifth Ministry of Machinery, was like a child who made a mistake. Sitting on the side, he also lowered his head and did not dare to lift it up.

Several old leaders of the General Staff also did not speak.

"Situ, we will definitely investigate this matter with all our might. Don't worry, we have sent people there to understand the situation overnight, and Minister Liu will also rush over overnight..." After a long time, Li Yunlong sighed and said to the thin old man standing straight in a long gown with a serious face.

"Xiao Lei is the most outstanding young man in our family and the most powerful of the next generation of family successors. He sent him to your army because we believe in you and the Chairman. Now that the Chairman is gone, such a thing happened! He insisted on going to the front line. This is what he deserves. As a soldier, it is his mission and his duty to defend his country! If he dies at the gun of the enemy, it is his life, but he dies under the shells we produce ourselves!" The crutches in Mr. Situ kept hitting the ground, thumping loudly, and said with heartache!

It is a glorious thing for a man to join the army and die on the battlefield.

Because he dedicated everything he had to his motherland!

And Situ Lei's death...

"We must find out who is so bold, and the unqualified products produced by military products are exiled to the battlefield in this way!" The old man who had just made a comeback was heartbroken after hearing the news.

In the past decade, domestic production basically came to a halt, and few places were starting construction, but they did not expect that it would have such an important impact now.

The country is currently planning some big moves. Without the support of these democratic figures with huge families abroad, it would be difficult to achieve their goals! What's more, the Situ family has always contributed a lot to the country. Some of the big projects that the country is carrying out are all carried out by them through foreign channels!

The top leaders were furious!

Such a thing caught everyone off guard.

The Western Front caused the innocent sacrifice of more than a dozen soldiers due to this reason, while the Eastern Front directly reimbursed a regiment commander!

If the weapons and equipment in the army are all like this, how can we fight this battle?

"Did the General Staff reply to the request for our suspension of the attack?" General Xu Shiyou's face looked very ugly. The news of this matter had been blocked by him, but it still spread throughout the 123rd Division's troops. Many soldiers even threw away the mortars and asked the superiors to send them more grenades.

Because of this, the morale of the soldiers of the 123rd Division of the entire Eastern Front battlefield was very low.

"It has been agreed. At present, the Fifth Machinery Department has sent a technical cadre to arrive at the front line at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning..." Yu Gang sighed. How can he attack if such a thing happens? "Situ Xue made a big fuss in the hospital when she knew something was wrong with her brother. She was holding a gun and was trying to find the people from the logistics department to fight for her life..."

"Look at that girl, her fierce temperament may cause something to happen... Before the person who installed the headquarters comes, investigate the situation first. It is best to find out which factory produces it and the person responsible for the production!" Xu Shiyou said gritted his teeth.

Yu Gang nodded, "The people from the logistics support department are currently investigating the use of all equipment..."

If this matter cannot be resolved, the battle will basically not be able to continue.

No matter how blockade is, the news will sooner or later reach other troops.

The bullets stuck, the gun barrels are hot and deformed, etc. have received feedback from various frontline troops in the past few days, which has attracted the attention of the front-line. However, no one expected such a serious quality accident to occur.

Liu Yijiu changed a helicopter arranged by the front line of the Eastern Front and arrived at the front line command center of Pingxiang on the Eastern Front. At present, the battlefield on the Eastern Front is mainly concentrated in the Tongdeng line within the Monkey.

"Hello, I am Zhao Bingyi, director of the Logistics Support Department of the Eastern Front. Comrade has worked hard all the way." Although he was shocked by the youth of the two technicians who came to investigate, he felt that this was the Perfunctory Department of the Fifth Machinery Department who was perfunctory to them, Zhao Bingyi showed no sign of it on his face.

"Hello, Chief!" Liu Yijiu saluted a military salute, not caring about the dissatisfaction in Zhao Bingyi's eyes.

If such a thing happens, no one feels good. Even Minister Liu Qingshan has no choice. These cannons should have been produced before he took office! (To be continued...)
