This blasting equipment can also be used to clear various wooden piles, barbed wire and other obstacles, with the help of efficient blasting equipment, the last obstacle of the attack surface is broken, the rumbling chariot continues to advance, and when approaching the position, the breakthrough battle group is met with the fiercest resistance.

One by one, targets symbolizing the enemy rose from the trenches, and at a distance of 80 to 120 meters, commandos armed with submachine guns quickly rushed forward, tilting a deadly rain of bullets at close range! With the roar of the submachine gun and the sweeping back and forth of more than a dozen tongues of fire, more than 20 targets were torn apart in an instant, and several sturdy figures rushed forward, and after throwing round defensive grenades in the trenches, the entire trench was completely cleaned up!

"Okay, today's drill is good, I'll give 8 points!" Finally, the prince said with satisfaction. "Sort out the graphic and textual materials of this exercise and make four copies. Delivered to me in three days. ”

"One for archiving, one for research. And what about the other two? One for the German General Staff and another for the Kaiser? On the way back, Prince Leopold asked.

"There is no need to give it to the German General Staff, Schlieffen will soon be retiring, and this old-fashioned man may not be interested in new equipment, it is just a waste to give it to him, one of them is for Moltke Jr., he is the director of armaments, and he is the most vocal group on the issue of new equipment. And more importantly, he's keen, intrigued! With power and interest, he is what we strive for. And giving something to him is equivalent to giving it to the Kaiser, let's give the Kaiser a simplified one, and let Moltke himself report to the Kaiser. ”

"As for the other part, I intend to give the Austrian Emperor that if there is a war with Russia in the future, we will have a cooperative relationship with Austria. To increase the strength of our allies is to increase our strength. The prince said.

"Austrians? Will they be armed with these terrifying weapons that are well-made, powerful, but too difficult to maintain and handle, and expensive? Prince Leopold's words revealed suspicion of Austria-Hungary. He had said more than once that since the Kingdom of Austria had become the Austro-Hungarian Empire, he could no longer afford to go to war!

"Maybe not now, but sooner or later they will be equipped, Emperor Fritz actually understands very well that simple sharing of interests and compromise can not really maintain a country, only the sword in his hand can achieve national interests, in fact, the old emperor is still very supportive of our point of view, the entire Austro-Hungarian Empire of 40 million people, only about a quarter of the Germans can be used, just before the day before my marriage to Her Royal Highness the Princess, the Austrian Emperor agreed to hand over to us the wartime command of the rapid division that we helped them buildand are willing to cooperate with us at a deeper level. ”

"What's more, now both our tank system and tactical system are far from complete, we need a long time to perfect it, and we also need more funds to build it, so we have to strive to get more recognition and support, a Vespa assault gun costs as much as 100,000 marks, if only we are equipped, then this cost is obviously too high." The prince explained.

100,000 marks is about 5,000 pounds, which is equivalent to the price of an MKIV tank during the First World War, but it weighs 28 tons, which is still the value of 1915, while the prince weighs 18 tons, and the value of 1900. This price is actually very high, according to the prince's plan, a company of 14 vehicles, 2 companies of 4 vehicles, 4 vehicles per platoon, a tank battalion of 45 vehicles, three subordinate companies and a battalion headquarters of 3 companies, tanks alone are 230,000 pounds! Coupled with several times the supply vehicles, emergency repair vehicles, and nearly a thousand personnel, the price is terrifyingly high, the prince estimated, not to mention the salaries and training costs of the personnel, just to complete all kinds of vehicles and equipment, it will cost at least 500,000 pounds!

Of this amount, £300,000 is for the purchase of combat vehicles and various spare parts, another £200,000, of which $30,000 is for the purchase of emergency repair trailers, and the other half is for the purchase of at least 100 trucks with a load of 1.5 to 3 tons, including, but not limited to, ammunition supply vehicles, fuel tankers, reconnaissance vehicles, and the other part of the funds may be used to equip some armored vehicles for reconnaissance and cover. According to the words of the prince, the creation of such an armored battalion would have to take out at least one dreadnought's profit!

This price is obviously terrible high, if you want to get an armored division or something before the 1st World War, not to mention anything else, money alone is a problem, and there are only two ways to reduce the financial pressure, one is to have a lot of buyers, share the cost, and the other is that someone is willing to pay for the Vespa assault gun, after all, only Bavaria can produce it now, if Prussia is willing to buy, Bavaria may be able to make ......a small profit.

"You think too much, let's not talk about whether the Prussian military can fancy this weapon, even if it does, in the future they may bid in their own country. The Prussian army was overwhelmingly dominant within Germany, and it was unlikely that they would choose us as a supplier of a particular important weapon. Unless we are willing to share technology and profits. Prince Leopold said. Would you like to? ”

"If Prussia really intends to equip a large number of chariots, I would do, because we are royalty, and we have the status and privileges we have today if we win the war, and if we lose, everything is gone!" The prince said without hesitation. Money is a good thing, but it also has to be spent!

"I'm worried now that France, Russia, Britain and others will follow suit if they learn that we are developing this new type of land weapon. At the level of technology of the French and British, it was not very difficult to study similar weapons. Perhaps in the next war, it will no longer be the flesh and blood of the soldiers and the artillery that will really decide the outcome of the war. Prince Leopold said with some concern.

"So we need to keep it strictly confidential. However, it is certain that once our new combat vehicles are on the battlefield, then Britain and France will definitely develop similar products in the shortest possible time, and a collision between armors is inevitable. Germany must be ready. ”

The tank was originally invented by the British, and the world's first relatively modern FT-17 Renault tank was invented by the French. Moreover, the most ferocious tank of World War 1, the Saint-Montsa tank, was also French, and this tank was armed with a 75mm rapid-fire gun. 36L, not a truncated version of the ...... that Vespa now uses. Therefore, even if the prince was a traverser and made a tank earlier, it still couldn't stop Britain and France from making something similar.
