An-qing jun-xie-suo; An-ch`ing chün-hsieh-so
A munitions factory established in Anqing, Anhui Province, China in 1861 by Zeng Guofan. During the Arrow War, Zeng Guofan was forced to urgently supply weapons and ammunition to counter Western countries and suppress the Taiping army, so he began construction of a munitions factory. However, he did not employ Western engineers, and instead left the operation and technology of the factory entirely to Chinese people, so many of the weapons produced were of poor quality and are said to have been useless in actual combat.

中国,咸豊 11 (1861) 年曾国藩により安徽省安慶に設立された軍需工場。アロー戦争の際,英仏軍の洋式武器の威力を見せつけられた曾国藩は,西洋諸国に対抗し,かつ太平天国軍を鎮圧するため早急に武器弾薬の補給を迫られ,軍需工場の建設に着手した。しかし西欧人技師を雇用せず,工場の運営および技術をすべて中国人にゆだねたため,製造された武器類は粗悪なものも多く,実戦には役立たなかったといわれる。
