Chapter 309: For the Battle of Nomenkan
The world watched the first war in Spain, and they were surprised to see that the German armored forces were already far ahead. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Enemy countries are working hard to develop new tanks, while friendly countries are full of envy and hope.
Italy, which has been authorized by Germany, can produce Panther tanks on Italian territory, which are much more advanced than their original pocket little tanks.
At the same time, another country can't wait.
Island country.
Ciric once visited the island country and signed a series of agreements with the island country, such as the design drawings of the island country's aircraft carrier, which were exchanged with Germany, which greatly inspired Germany to produce its first aircraft carrier.
And now, the island nation wants to see the tanks of the Germans, and Germany, of course, cannot hide them.
"This is the tank we beat the Soviets on the battlefield in Spain." Ciric greeted the visitors and showed them around.
The visitor, led by Lieutenant General Michitaro Komatsubara, who belonged to the 23rd Division of the Kwantung Army of the island country, immediately understood what was going on when he got his information.
Historically, the Battle of Nomenkan would have broken out in 39 years, and now, the islanders must have made some preparations.
The army of the island people is well-trained, but unfortunately the equipment is always weak, and their famous tank brigade is also a light and small tank with thin skin and big stuffing, which cannot compete with the Soviet tanks at all.
That battle made the island people completely stop thinking about advancing north, and they already knew that the current Soviet Union was not as easy to bully as the former Tsarist Russia, so the island people would seek breakthroughs in other aspects, and as a result, they would challenge the United States without knowing the sky.
After the outbreak of World War II, Hitler hinted to the island countries many times, asking the island countries to march from the east and attack the Soviet Union on both sides.
If the USSR had been attacked on both sides, would it still be the same as in history?
The Soviet Union won World War II, and what a human toll it took! In the later period, the Soviets continued to transfer troops from the Far East to reinforce the Western Front, and later, the Far East, blocking the head of the Kwantung Army was just a layer of window paper.
Thinking of this, Ciric already had an idea.
In later generations, the island country wanted to import Tiger tanks, but it was cheated by Germany, and now, it is better to seriously do the island people a favor!
If the islanders win the battle of Nomenkan, or if they lose, they can see the hope of victory, then the direction of the islanders' operations may always go north!
And if the island countries do not challenge the United States, the Americans are happy to watch the war rag in Europe, and they happily sell resources there and make a lot of money.
At this time, all the island people are bright-eyed, they look at the majestic tank in front of them, in comparison, their tanks are simply children's toys!
An island man couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart and said, "Can we start it?" ”
"Absolutely!" Ciric said, "Please go up! ”
Several islanders jumped on the tank with great interest, and even Komatsu stood in the turret.
"The start button is on the left." Outside the cab, a German tankman said to the other side.
Initiate!
With the push of the button, the roar of the engine was heard behind it, and unlike the hum of the gasoline engine, the engine had the characteristic tom sound of the high-pressure oil pump pumping oil.
Pull the lever back and lift the clutch.
With the instructions, the island soldiers started this behemoth, and he instantly felt the unique strength of the diesel engine!
Now, the tanks of almost all countries are still gasoline! The torque of the gasoline engine is small, and when starting, you must have a big foot on the accelerator, otherwise it will definitely turn off!
And now? This tank, you don't need to step on the accelerator, you can start at idle, and the engine is really too advanced!
For the small body of the island people, the space inside the Black Panther tank is really too wide, they look at the equipment inside, look at the precision sights, everyone's eyes are full of expectation!
This tank, if it can be equipped with the Kwantung Army, they are absolutely confident that they will win against the Soviets!
It took a turn, and finally stopped, and everyone didn't want to come down from it.
"Everyone, we have prepared a dinner party for you, and the conditions in the army are poor, please don't be surprised." Now, Hirek said, it's getting dark.
So, they could only get out of the tank and, at the recommendation of Ciric, walk in the direction of the restaurant.
Along the way, they chattered and talked about the benefits of this tank.
Can island people develop their own? Of course it can't be, the problem with the engine, they can't solve it! They simply don't have any experience with large diesel engines for such cars! Sighting systems, artillery, are their weak points!
These guys were quite anxious, so at the dinner party prepared for them, the officer, who was not tall but looked quite fierce, asked Ciric, "May I ask Your Excellency Ciric, can we introduce this Panther tank of yours?" We want complete design drawings as well as samples. ”
"An Gangjun, don't be impatient!" Hearing his subordinates ask this, Lieutenant General Komatsu, who led the team, immediately scolded.
"It doesn't matter." Ciric replied cheerfully: "If you want the tank we have now, it will not be difficult. ”
Ciric's answer made Komatsu also surprised and happy: "Really? It would be great if you would export to us! ”
A full set of design drawings, as well as samples, this is the rhythm that the islanders intend to make themselves.
After all, although the island people are constantly plundering the wealth of China, there are many places where the island country uses money at the same time, especially the navy, which is simply a bottomless pit for burning money, so it is impossible for the island country to import finished products in large quantities, they can only import samples and then imitate them themselves.
Ciric's agreement undoubtedly made them feel quite happy.
"It's just..."Ciric's later words made the island people quite impatient.
Just what?
"Right now, our production is also very tight!" "The production of the tanks ordered by our army has already been scheduled for the year after tomorrow, and if you need it, it will be at least the year after next year," said Shirek. ”
In fact, the Panther 2 tank that is now being shown to the islanders has long been ready to be eliminated in the German army, and it doesn't matter if you give a few to the islanders for nothing, but it is definitely not in line with Shirek's principle.
Ripping off, that's still a must.
