The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 2406: The market for submachine guns

Inside the office building of Li's Armory.

"I have heard about this order." Li You said to his sales department manager looking at the documents in his hand.

"This order was obtained by Wenyang Bank itself, and it has nothing to do with us." Li You continued.

"But, Chairman, I personally think that we should get this order the most. I got a message from the Ministry of Defense just now. This news has a lot to do with our production, because we have a lot of production for submachine guns. Patent rights. And production basis. We can quickly complete this aspect of production." Li Ben said.

"Yeah." Li You just nodded.

"The latest news from the Ministry of National Defense shows that the Goguryeo people will set up a police force, the number is not very large, only 10,000, and their army size is only 8,000. This is an important opportunity for us." Li Ben said.

"Chairman, you are also aware of the current weapons sales situation. Wenyang Arsenal has mature artillery technology and mature gun production, especially rifles, and rifle ammunition. They produce a large number of weapons currently equipped by the Qin Army, even though we The weapons of the Li’s Arsenal are more stable, but most of our products are sold to the armies of other countries.” Li Ben said helplessly. The two largest arsenal enterprises in Qin State are Wenyang arsenal and Li's arsenal. The Wenyang Arsenal has a close relationship with the Qin Army's senior leaders, especially the support of the Federal Party, which allows the Wenyang Arsenal to easily obtain military orders. Most of the rifles and pistols in the hands of the Qin Army come from the Wenyang Arsenal. The Li's Arsenal is only responsible for the production of weapons and equipment for the Qin Army, because the technology they produce is higher than that of the Wenyang Arsenal. However, this situation cannot allow the Li's Arsenal to maintain normally. Therefore, the Li's Arsenal produces a large number of other weapons and equipment. For example, the previous grenadiers and the hand cannons in the hands of Qin Jun are their key weapons and equipment, except for these. In addition, they also produce magazine pistols, but they are reliable and cross-linked. In addition, they also have shotguns, which have an advantage in close combat. Shotguns, as well as various versions of civilian rifles, are mainly aimed at those civilian armed forces. But these are not enough, because the largest customer comes from the military, so Li’s Arsenal actively cooperates with the military of various countries. For example, the largest cooperation comes from Qi, and Qi has ordered a considerable number of grenades, landmines, and submachine guns. At present, the largest submachine gun order comes from Qi, because Qi’s short-to-arm tactics are the most widely used.

Therefore, in the design and manufacture of submachine guns, Li's arsenal made bold innovations, although their first-generation submachine guns were heavy and bulky to use. However, the Li's Armory has improved the second-generation submachine gun. The second-generation submachine gun uses a large number of cheap stamping processes and simple cutting. As a result, the production cost and process are greatly reduced, which is conducive to the further popularization of the submachine gun.

"Chairman, I personally think that we should seize this submachine gun market. Wenyang Arsenal does not pay attention to this. But we can expand this point wildly." Li Ben suggested.

"But the current requirements of Qin Jun are different from our production." Li You said worriedly.

"The weapons and equipment required by the Qin Army are long-range and powerful. In contrast, submachine guns are much less powerful. They have a short range. What's worse, the bullets have a large spread, although the rate of fire is very fast." Li You Speaking of.

"But Chairman, because of this, we have to open up new markets. The submachine gun has a broad market prospect. As you know, the Qin Army has extremely strict restrictions on some heavy weapons, such as machine guns and new artillery. Qin State can produce weapons in large quantities, but they absolutely do not allow them to be exported to other countries, in order to form an advantage in weapons and equipment, but countries generally have the idea of ​​narrowing the gap in weapons and equipment. In terms of rate of fire, submachine guns There is a great advantage, especially when short-term combat, a submachine gun can quickly offset the rifle's long-range shooting capability, and our infantry must rush to fight sooner or later, otherwise we will not be equipped with bayonets." Li Ben said.

"You're right." Li You thought about it. Although in Qin State, most of the military orders were eaten by Wenyang Bank, in areas outside Qin State, Li's Armory occupies the majority. Orders.

"Countries are very optimistic about machine guns, but they do not have submachine guns. For rapid-fire weapons, their demand exists. Although we cannot export machine guns, we can use submachine guns instead." Li You said.

"Yes, Chairman, we have just improved a lot of submachine gun craftsmanship. We can take this part of the order to make up for our biggest demand." Li Ben said.

"Yeah. Yes, just do it." Li You agreed.

In Qin, Qin’s military officials thought that a rifle was enough, because it had a large range and the Qin army prepared a large number of machine guns. The machine guns had obvious suppressive effects. For submachine guns, this was a chicken rib. In addition, the military budget was insufficient. So Qin Jun was not equipped with a submachine gun, because his effect was not very high.

The submachine gun was born in trench assault operations, because trenches shortened the combat distance, but most of the Qin army’s combat targets were plain field operations. The range of submachine guns was very problematic. Under such circumstances, the Qin Army needed a very powerful combatant. Rifles, not submachine guns, this is the result of different combat concepts.

The other thinking of the military of various countries is that they use trenches to protect themselves as much as possible, shorten the effective killing range of the rifle, and after avoiding and protecting themselves, they use the rapid firing of the submachine gun to solve the problem. Every country has a strong interest in Qin's machine guns, but Qin exports old-fashioned machine guns. Moreover, the price is expensive, and the price of bullets is even more amazing. In this case, the submachine gun is much cheaper, and equipped with multiple people and flexible tactics, they can completely achieve this. Therefore, the Li's Armory still has a large market, after all, there is a lot of demand for this.

This is the case for Goguryeo. Although Qin did not provide a large number of submachine guns to the Goguryeo people, the Goguryeo people are still very interested in submachine guns. For them, rapid-fire weapons are the only efficient equipment to suppress rifles. The speed is much higher than that of a rifle. This is the huge potential demand of the submachine gun market. The Wenyang Arsenal did not notice this.
