Chapter 165: Little Panther Tank

Li and Zhang had no doubts, and immediately decided to build the Western Sichuan Military Academy with Liu Yun, focusing on cultivating a new army and air force, and at the same time kindly reminded him to report to Lao Jiang and Liu Xiang, it is best to let the Central Army and the Sichuan Army also join, and the scale of the beginning should not be too large, three or four hundred people are enough.

Liu Yun also undoubtedly discussed this, the purpose of his military academy is mainly aimed at the air force, armored troops, and special forces, and ordinary troops do not need it for the time being; once needed, they can find an elite unit at will, directly arm their weapons to the teeth, and then train them for a few days, and then they can go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.

More than 100 qualified pilots are more than 100 fighters, more than 100 armored troops, more than 100 tanks, and if you add more than 100 special forces, it is enough to support a small and medium-sized battle.

As for Lao Jiang and Liu Xiang, Liu Yun originally had no intention of concealing it, and if he could, he even hoped that these two forces would also send some people to join the military academy to study, and he himself would be the principal, and the instructors would be mainly German instructors, supplemented by Red Army instructors, and supplemented by other instructors.

Regarding the matter of aiding the construction of western Sichuan, Li Shengde and Zhang Guotao not only agreed, but also asked Liu Yun to take care of the families of the Red Army, as well as those disabled commanders and fighters, of course, after the main force of the Red Army left, Zhen Wenhe and Zheng Yuanxing will stay behind and be specifically responsible for these families and the wounded.

In the next few months, the exchange of fire between the Red Army and the Sichuan Army will be completely stopped, and the Red Army will hold on to the areas of Jinchuan, Songpan, Lifan, and Pingwu.

Since the international airports in various cities were still under construction, Liu Yun took the opportunity to go to the city to report his work, drove the Flying Bear II transport plane, carrying the wounded of the Sichuan army, and flew directly to the north school field of the city capital, which made the eyes of Lao Jiang and Liu Xiang, as well as a bunch of military and political personnel, fall to the ground.

Liu Xiang is better, his knowledge is still on the biplane, and for Lao Jiang, he is really a little depressed, he has long thought that the moon abroad is to be rounder, but he didn't expect Liu Yun's plane, it seems that it is only strong and not weak, of course, foreign advanced aircraft, he can't buy it if he wants to.

Liu Xiang and Lao Jiang visited the Flying Bear transport plane, and before Liu Yun could speak, they took the initiative to set up the West Sichuan Aviation School and the West Sichuan Aircraft Factory in West Sichuan County.

Liu Yun also directly reported that the Red Army wanted to intervene in the situation, and Liu and Jiang did not care at all, thinking about it from another angle, the Red Army suffered so many losses in Wenchuan, if they did not pay attention to the planes and tanks, they were really worried about their IQ, maybe in their opinion, the Red Army was busy working in vain even if they learned, and they were in a state of wandering combat for a long time, and it was not much use to send planes and tanks in vain.

As for the special forces that Liu Yun said, Liu Xiang and Lao Jiang didn't understand it, and later used the paratroopers in Brandenburg, Germany as an analogy, and barely understood, and immediately gave Liu Daguan a roll of the eyes, what special forces, isn't it just a reconnaissance company that can be airborne, and he said it so incomprehensibly, relying on himself to drink some foreign ink, he came to fool the two division commanders and seniors, what a bastard.

"Airborne reconnaissance company", Liu Yun had no choice but to laugh, but after thinking about it carefully, Lao Jiang and Liu Xiang were actually not wrong, what kind of special forces, in the final analysis, isn't it a common reconnaissance unit, at most after special screening, and training and other things are more refined.

Whether it is the Central Army, or the Sichuan Army and the Red Army, there is a special shortage of pilots and tank drivers, how can three or four hundred be enough, at least one or two thousand, Liu Yun is also drunk, Liu Jiang and the others think that they are buying cabbage, they can train hundreds or thousands casually, and hurriedly affirmed that these two branches of the army need talent, and if a few qualified soldiers are not trained by then, don't blame him.

Liu Xiang and Lao Jiang both laughed, they both have formed air forces and armored troops, where do they not know the hardships and hardships inside, it is precisely because they know that the success rate is low, so they allow the Red Army to participate, in their opinion, in the end, there can be 30 qualified pilots, it is already the blessing of the Buddha.

Liu Yun doesn't think so, because he has a smart brain in hand, and he can formulate training plans one by one according to the specific situation of each student, as long as his own quality is not too bad, the final pass rate is definitely more than 30%, so just these technical arms are formed into a downsized mixed brigade, under the jurisdiction of the flight wing, armored battalion, special brigade, and several reserve militia companies.

It's easy to help a few bigwigs train talents, but the amount of oil consumed is an astronomical amount, although there are tens of thousands of tons of oil in western Sichuan County, but it can't withstand such a large consumption, so I asked the two bigwigs to get some fuel, no matter what oil, gasoline and diesel can be.

Oil in the 30s was very cheap, but there was no chemical industry in China, so most of it was imported kerosene, of course, gasoline and diesel also had some, mostly used in ships and cars, so Lao Jiang and Liu Xiang had no good way, Lao Jiang could buy a lot of oil, but the transportation was a little troublesome, Liu Xiang's suggestion was to prospect in Sichuan, as long as Liu Yun found it, he could mine it directly.

Liu Yun also knew that Liu Jiang and the others had tried their best, but fortunately, although there were no large oil reserves in Sichuan, most of them were like western Sichuan County, as long as they were carefully explored, they could still find some small oil fields of tens of thousands of tons, especially in the edge of the Sichuan Basin, the reserves were even more abundant.

Now Sichuan West County is building a railway, Liu Yun also serves as the head of the Mao County Garrison, once repaired to Mao County, whether it is mining all kinds of ores, or all kinds of oil mines, this guy has priority, now there is Liu Xiang's order, it is a monopoly, and then let go of the big stone in his heart.

In addition, Liu Yun also made a brief report on the types and quantities of munitions needed by the Red Army, and indicated the difficulty of the arsenal in western Sichuan County.

The flexibility can be so great, Liu Yun is also thundered, but thinking that the Sichuan army and the Red Army have a deep grudge, if Liu Xiang doesn't mind at all, and even Liu Daguan himself doesn't believe it, it seems that not to "make extraneous branches" is the true meaning of Chairman Liu's words, so it is good to increase the operability.

For the exchange of prisoners and wounded on both sides, Lao Jiang and Liu Xiang still strongly supported, and the Red Army also thought so, and secretly asked Liu Yun to send back a lot of prisoners, especially some of the background relations are complicated, and they are the priority objects for release, and they are all happy for a while.

The prisoners and wounded on both sides had just been airlifted, and Liu Yun was considering whether to take a breath, but Falkenhausen came good news, after seven or eight days of hard work, Chinese and German tank experts had built a new type of tank, and let him personally participate in the acceptance and review.

Liu Yun still has this little bit of time, with a group of tank experts, in the machinery factory, saw this new tank, 6.2 meters long, 3.05 meters wide, 2.25 meters high, weighing 24.5 tons, equipped with a new engine, the size is 0.7 meters square, the output is 550 horsepower.

The new tank has a top speed of 52 km/h, can travel 480 kilometers without problems, uses composite armor, the front is equivalent to 120 mm of homogeneous steel plates, the side armor is 60 mm, and it is equipped with a Fu2G super shortwave transceiver.

The caliber of the tank gun is 88mm, it can reserve 62 shells, penetrate 100mm homogeneous steel plate at a distance of 1500 meters, has a complete dual-cycle cooling system, and a G34 coaxial machine gun, which can reserve 900 rounds of ammunition, and will be coordinated by the commander, gunner, and driver.

The comprehensive performance of the new tank, although it did not fully meet the design requirements, but also has the combat effectiveness of the Leopard tank, which is only stronger than the early model of the Soviet T34 tank, in other words, it has far exceeded the original German No. 4 tank in time and space.

After a period of rough testing, the comprehensive strength of the new tank made a group of tank experts overjoyed, of course, Liu Yun was also very satisfied, but in his opinion, it still needs further repairs, such as the air conditioning problem inside the tank, and the improvement of comprehensive performance.

In the eyes of German experts, this new tank has been quite successful, and can even be called a small leopard tank, which can already be sent back to Berlin directly with the drawings.

Falkenhausen hopes to personally take the drawings, take a group of joint experts, fly directly to Wuhan, and make it again at the Hanyang Arsenal, if it is still ideal, it will be sent back to Berlin directly through the German cruiser, Liu Yun doesn't care, it would be better if the deal could be completed earlier.

However, Liu Yunke kept the matter of the original flying saucer in his heart, and since he had sent experts and materials to Wuhan, he would bring the flying saucer back by the way, and Falkenhausen was naturally happy to see it come true, and immediately ordered the Nanjing Advisory Group and the Central Army to cooperate and secretly transport the original flying saucer to the Kongshi Airport in Hankou by warship.

After a group of experts jointly and repeatedly tested, when it was finally determined that there was no doubt, he took the data group to Wuhan, Liu Yun had to personally send them away, but this time everyone can have a taste, see the newly baked Flying Bear III. transport aircraft, German experts are all fascinated by it for a while.

The Flying Bear III. transport aircraft, with a weight of up to 5.6 tons, plus fuel and other things, weighs 9 tons, is the largest and heaviest aircraft in China at present, and the biggest advantage is that when flying, it is quite stable and safe, and General Falkenhausen no longer has to be so embarrassed.

Liu Yun is not interested in the best speed, as long as it is not an area with complex terrain, he has always liked to increase the speed to the maximum, anyway, the maximum speed is 520 kilometers per hour, the size and weight are far better than the Flying Bear I. fighter, there is no reason than the first flight to Wuhan, more difficult, more bumpy.

In less than three hours, the plane will land at Kong's Airport, and because of the intelligent brain navigation, Liu Yun's piloting skills are getting better and better, only using 780 meters of runway, the huge transport plane was parked on the apron, so that the onlookers and ground staff gasped.

Soon after the plane stopped, Miss Kong came to greet her, and after a brief greeting with Falkenhausen, she took Liu Yun back to Kong's villa, and I didn't know if there was really something to talk about, or a reunion after a long absence, both of them wanted to quietly make love, and even someone wanted to go back to the Hanyang Arsenal and report to Major General Qin Guodong for duty, so they had to ask a few German friends to help deal with it perfunctorily.
