Chapter 111: The Military Industry That Broke the Boat

People all over the world may not know that Adrian so readily accepted the proposal of the French representative, and was even willing to sell all the military equipment, drawings and technology in the country, and what was the meaning of this, Adrian himself knew in his heart. Now, domestic military-industrial entrepreneurs also understand. As early as during the peace talks, Adrian had conceived of exchanging old equipment and technology for compensation, which would not only make the country's outdated production lines and old technology profitable, but also save a considerable amount of waste equipment disposal costs, and at the same time, not only let the representatives of the Entente feel Germany's sincerity, but also inspire those entrepreneurs who are complacent in China to start from a new height and carry out technological upgrading, so as to leap Germany's next-generation weapons and equipment to a new level.

The road is one foot high, the magic is one foot high, Adrian's wisdom makes the domestic military industry entrepreneurs admire the five-body five-body throw, they have long wanted to scrap those old production lines, but the disposal cost is extremely high, has not been realized. Now, Adrian helped them solve the old problem at once, not only did they not have to spend a penny on the waste disposal fee, but also earned the added value of the old equipment, and even the drawings that were ready to be burned became baby bumps.

In fact, just before the delegates gathered in Berlin, the CIA's undercover personnel in France had already quickly transmitted the contents of the "Bill" that the French delegates had studied and decided to Berlin. To this end, Adrian promptly communicated with the Prime Minister of the Cabinet Gustav? Stresemann, Foreign Minister Hermann? Miller went deeper. Combined with the aging and obsolescence of the country's military equipment, entrepreneurs are suffering from their own financial resources and cannot disassemble and return to the problem, recruiting representatives of various military enterprises to carry out a briefing on the disposal of old equipment, the government and enterprises to agree, first, the government to help enterprises sell old equipment at a high price, enterprises do not charge a penny. Second, enterprises should pay the corresponding waste equipment disposal fees to the government, and the government does not want a penny. In this way, the company was happy and responded immediately, because the deal was very cost-effective, and the company only needed to set up a new production line for new product development, which saved a considerable amount of costs.

This strategy of killing two birds with one stone and killing two birds with one stone is also thanks to Adrian's ability to come up with it, so it is no wonder that the domestic capitalists are elated and applauded. Adrian just smiled when he talked about the fact that the government paid for the equipment purchased by various countries, but in fact, the money had already been paid by the entrepreneurs.

Adrian made a bold idea of the German military industrial system, according to the actual situation in Germany, it is very important to carry out a targeted reform, especially in Germany located in the middle of the European continent, if the First World War is a war without preparation, then through this war can learn a lot, can find out the shortcomings of Germany at present and even in the next few years. Now that the war is finally over, this is a godsend that the Federal Republic of Germany can calm down and carry out the creation and invention of the whole people, regain self-confidence, find the starting point for economic revitalization, and give new vitality to the old industrial base.

Germany may lack resources, but the industrial base is solid, there is no shortage of talents, not to mention technology, under the premise of using limited resources, the expansion of unlimited industrial technology, this is the only way out for Germany. Adrian believes that Germany's industrial level has always been in the forefront of the world, and he wants to use this natural talent advantage to make up for the disadvantage of resource shortage, encourage innovation, encourage entrepreneurship, let Germany's industrial products go abroad, go to the world, and let foreign exchange income pave the way for Germany's dream.

When the weather is good, Dinah will walk around, five years ago Germany should not be what it is now, she is no stranger to Berlin, but her eyes are full of depression, many of the scenes in her memory are gone, she feels very desolate, a little sad from it. When she came to Unter den Linden, the signs of business recovery were not so obvious, some of the shops were open, but there were few goods, and she walked into several shops, but she couldn't find what she was looking for.

Adrian's ambitions had been heard many times in Dinah's ears, and she now understood very well why her husband was going crazy to revive the country's economy, but the reason was simple: the Berlin peace talks were completely revealed. Those economically backward countries don't even have the right to speak, they are like a group of children listening to the teacher's lectures, they can't make noise, they can't make trouble, they can only obediently obey and then do it, otherwise, you can only stand up and go out. This is the reality, this is the sadness of the weak. Adrian knew how far Germany was from the weak, and the whole world probably knew, but they ignored the excellent German nation and the national potential for innovation and development.

After a long time, Dinah felt very tired, she was ready to go home, she wanted to make a request to Adrian, telling him that she was tired of being a president's wife, she was a new type of woman with a sense of innovation, as a woman in the Federal Republic of Germany, she wanted to really do something beneficial to the country and the nation, she smiled secretly, I don't know if Adrian would agree with her to go back into society, towards the industrial revolution that she loved since childhood.

Adrian's national plan is divided into three main categories: first: the stabilization and development of efficient agriculture to meet the needs of the country's livelihood, and the gradual solution of the situation in which food must be imported from abroad. Second, vigorously develop the development of civilian industrial products, especially some high-tech products with high added value, enrich foreign exchange reserves, and lay a solid foundation for further innovation. Third: national defense construction. This plan was made by the Cabinet of Prime Minister Gustav ? Stresemann has to pay close attention to implementation, and he must keep seeing results.

While Dinah was inspecting the business scene on the streets of Berlin, Adrian had already arrived at the New Weapons and Equipment Technology Research Institute under the Ministry of Defense, and he wanted to see if there was a new breakthrough in the countersunk system that he personally supervised.

Buried bullets are a new topic that Adrian urgently needs to tackle. Literally, that is, ammunition in which the propellant effectively covers and wraps the entire warhead in order to increase the amount of propellant used and improve the ballistic performance of the warhead. Its shape is a concealed warhead, which has a high safety factor and can fully save and utilize the storage space. Countersunk ammunition is also called embedded ammunition or sleeve ammunition, just like the meaning of countersunk ammunition, the warhead of countersink ammunition is contained in the propellant of the cartridge, which is its difference in appearance. Due to the use of a cylindrical charge, it is smaller in size, easy to store, saves ammunition storage space, and can better improve the ammunition carrying capacity; The shape of the cartridge is simple and neat, simplifying the design of the ammunition feeder; It is conducive to the use of the structure of rotary locking, thereby reducing the overall size of the artillery system and increasing the rate of fire, especially under the condition of the original gun size, the larger caliber artillery system can be modified and the power of the combat vehicle can be improved. Countersunk shells usually use bipolar ignition, after the primer is fired, the auxiliary propellant burns and pushes the projectile away from the cartridge and into the chamber; After the projectile is removed from the cartridge, the flame of the auxiliary propellant ignites the main charge, and the gas generated by the combustion of the gunpowder pushes the warhead away from the barrel at high speed.

All the arms dealers in Germany did not have this concept, so Adrian had to show up and start reciting textbooks to them in the guise of a professional technician. For all the questions that did not have the content of the book as a reference, he was vaguely confused, in fact, he only knew some conceptual things, and only hoped to use his rough brief description to play the role of throwing bricks and stones.

After a brief overview, Adrian suggested that the R&D team of the Eric Group should learn more from each other and integrate opinions with the Institute of New Weapons and Equipment Technology under the Ministry of National Defense, so as to truly make the role of each weapon play to the extreme.

Adrian specially listened to a brief introduction by the professional designers of the countersunk projectile system. In this regard, he revealed a little secret; Regardless of whether it is a professional research institution or a domestic military industrial enterprise, whoever has made outstanding progress and achieved remarkable results in the research work of the submerged bomb system, he will strive to provide the research institute or the enterprise with corresponding research funds, scientific research start-up funds, and vigorous policy inclination, and the state will also implement high rewards for individuals and groups that have made outstanding contributions to this purpose. Of course, not only is it a bomb, but as long as it is an innovation and invention in the national economy and national defense science and technology, the state will treat everyone equally.

In view of Germany's lack of resources and strong technology, if this problem can be solved as soon as possible, it can make the German Bundeszkrief strength advance for more than ten years. Of course, he also thought of another solution, and even thought about the caseless bullet series, but the caseless bullet system is more difficult than the countersunk bullet, and the effect is slow, in comparison, the countersunk bullet system is more reliable.

The reason why Adrian took such pains to change the German military industrial system for blood was also due to the consideration that the weak countries had no right to speak at this peace conference, ordinary weapons and ammunition were available in all countries, and once they were on the battlefield, they would fight for life and capital, and the German Confederation could not do this, either break the kettle and surpass it far away, and throw those arrogant powers behind the ass, or just like this time and live after death, or do not do it, and do the best, or succeed or perish. He is confident that by the end of his term, the system will be put into trial and ready for installation in Germany.
