Chapter 131: Tank No. 4

To Liu Yun's surprise, the physique of the German soldiers was stronger, and Falkenhausen took a nap in the villa for a while, and he recovered to seventy-seven or eighty-eight, and he didn't even bother to take a sip of tea, just to find Liu Daguan for an interview, it seems that this guy does have an important task on his body.

Liu Yun didn't want Kenhausen to run around, after all, there were still many abnormal traces in the local area, and it was too late to clean up in a short time, and it was only reluctant to deceive the indigenous people.

Liu Yun handed a packet of apples like ice lumps to Falkenhausen, this guy didn't seem interested at all, and took out a palm-sized book of information directly from the place close to him, the texture was very peculiar, like paper not paper, and later I learned that this was the famous parchment, and when I opened it, it was full of German tank information, to be exact, No. 3 and No. 4 tank information.

Liu Yun was also stunned, so he had to take advantage of the fact that the sky was not yet dark, and quickly took a cursory look at the information of the two tanks, and the idealized No. 3 tank plan was only twelve or thirteen tons, which should be called an armored car, perhaps more appropriate, with a power of only a pitiful 200 horsepower.

As for the idealized Tank 4 scheme, the overall weight is only about 20 tons, which is already at the dividing point between light and medium tanks, with a cannon caliber of up to 75 mm, frontal armor of only 30 mm, power of 280 horsepower, and cross-country speed of only 37 km / h.

After all, Liu Yun led the design of new tanks, and artificially skipped these messy data and directly looked at the things he cared about, such as the performance of the two tank guns, the ammunition supply system, the aiming system, the engine cooling system, and the electronic system that he was most concerned about.

These materials and texts, in order to be easy to carry, have been reduced, even the Germans themselves want to see, they have to rely on a magnifying glass, fortunately someone has the help of the brain, less than ten minutes, more than 100 pictures, more than 100,000 German characters, one by one.

After Liu Yun read the whole tank information, he slowly closed his eyes and quickly thought about the intentions of the Germans, in fact, Germany has the new tank he provided, that is, the future No. 5 Leopard tank, so now these tank materials can be swept into the garbage heap, of course, there are still some places that can be used for reference, such as the cooling system, electronic system and bomb supply system.

There is no doubt that after the Germans got the new tank, it has been optimized and adjusted on a large scale, and it is even stronger than the historical Leopard tank, but Falkenhausen does not necessarily know that the Germans' goal has been achieved, and cooperation with Huaxia is not necessary, which is also the real reason why Liu Yun let it go after dismantling the Sino-German joint research and development.

Dr. Liu couldn't think of an answer, so he was ready to ask directly, but Falkenhausen peeled the frozen apple during this free time, tasted it slightly, and exclaimed, "Dear Liu, you really enjoy it, this apple looks a little ugly, but the taste is wonderful."

Liu Yun didn't think too much, so he had to catch the apple handed over by Falkenhausen and taste it himself, well, it is indeed okay, there is enough moisture, the taste is very good, the sweetness and sourness are moderate, and there is a unique flavor of the western Sichuan Plateau, which looks ugly, like an iron block in the hand, heavy, and cannot afford to buy a price locally, which is called "iron egg apple".

Not to mention, although Liu Yun has returned to West Sichuan Town, it has been several months, and he has not tasted much local specialties, and he either drinks tea all day long, or eats beef and flatbread, as for the famous local tsamba and butter tea, he is not willing to touch it, let alone the rough-looking iron egg apple.

Seeing that Liu Yun seemed to be eating this kind of apple for the first time, Falkenhausen couldn't help but be stunned, and said very unexpectedly, "Dear Liu, you are so good to me, you actually left me the most delicious fruit, and you are usually reluctant to eat it yourself, which really touches me so much."

Liu Yun also smiled wryly, seeing that Kenhausen liked the iron egg apples so much, he secretly made up his mind that when this guy left, he would fill him with a sack of apples and let him take them back and eat them slowly, but now it was still important to get down to business, "Dear Haosen, haven't you already taken a warship back to Berlin, and you have come to China so soon, shouldn't there be something urgent?" ”

Falkenhausen was not in a hurry at this time, he was eating apples leisurely, glanced at Liu Yun a little slyly, and then said happily, "Well, this is normal, because I love Huaxia, I like it here, I want to come back to see my old friends, what's wrong?" Don't you like me anymore, alas, I'm so hurt, it's said that I'm a friend of the Chinese, isn't it-".

The serious Germans also learned badly, and Liu Yun couldn't do anything about this old scoundrel, so he came to count directly, so he coughed twice, shook the tank information in his hand, and asked with a smile, "Haosen, didn't you transport the tanks back to Germany, what do you want to do with this garbage, is it difficult, you want to produce them and sell them to backward areas to earn foreign exchange."

I didn't think about it, Liu Yun's unintentional words really told him, it was the true idea of the Germans, looking at the uneasy Falkenhausen, Liu Daguan was also dumbfounded, and asked in disbelief, "Don't tell me, those bureaucrats in Nanjing also ordered this garbage."

Falkenhausen was afraid that the misunderstanding would deepen, and he was even more afraid that Liu Yun would become richer the more he associated, so he hurriedly explained the reasons clearly, and said with a sincere face, "Liu, you also know that our German enemy is very strong, one has the world's largest army, and the other has the world's largest navy."

"Although we are secretly preparing for war, we also hope that the war will be as late as possible, and it is precisely because we have a new type of tank that we have to use these outdated designs to deceive the rogue countries around us, and within our army, we have jointly developed a new type of tank, numbered No. 3 tank, which the Führer affectionately calls the German Panther, so it is also called the Leopard tank."

"No. 3, Leopard Tank", Liu Yun was also stunned, history turned a small bay, and returned to the original, the new tank is based on the Soviet T34 tank, and the German Leopard tank as a template, and the reverse design of the tank, of course, compared with the German Leopard in another time and space, is different, especially in terms of protection and engine reliability, but also slightly better.

Liu Yun immediately knew the intentions of the Germans, and Falkenhausen brought these materials to see his real purpose, there is no doubt that he hoped that Liu Daguan would help design a new light tank, the performance should be as good as possible, the structure should be as simple as possible, the main thing is to facilitate large-scale production, and the new No. 3 tank, forming a high and low match, forming a quantitative advantage, as for the No. 3 and No. 4 tanks like waste, but it is just a trick.

"If you can, it is also the right thing to sell to underdeveloped areas like China, after all, it also costs money to deceive people, and it is best for someone to pay for this money", Liu Yun smiled slightly bitterly in his heart, to be honest, these rags are indeed much stronger than the active tanks in Europe and the United States, and much stronger than those bean tanks in Japan.

Looking at Falkenhausen, who was confident, Liu Yun's heart suddenly moved, it seemed that Germany had a strong purpose this time, so he asked tentatively, "Your Excellency Hausen, don't hide it, if you have any other information, take it out, isn't it an improved version of the No. 4 tank?" ”

Falkenhausen was suddenly shocked, looked at Liu Yun who was casual, tugged at his hair with some distress, and asked very painfully, "Liu, how do you know, from Germany to China, I have a good preservation, no one should know about this, damn, how did you leak the secret?" ”

Seeing Falkenhausen who was so painful that he wanted to commit suicide, Liu Yun also realized that the joke was too big, so he hurriedly comforted, "Haosen, don't think too much, I'm just joking, out of a momentary curiosity, I want to test it, it can be said to be an intuition, or a kind of rational logic."

Encountering Liu Yun's strange intuition, Falkenhausen only thought that he was unlucky, and in the mezzanine of his jacket, he took out a piece of parchment paper, and baked it slightly on the fire, only to reveal a large piece of text and graphics, which was the light tank drawings redesigned by the German army.

On the surface, Liu Yun is carefully reviewing the drawings, and the scene of Falkenhausen baking the drawings always comes to mind, whether it is the order and technique of baking, or the length of baking, there are some special particulars, no wonder this guy thinks that it is impossible to leak secrets, because it is useless to know the decryption method, and it must also have the natural rigor and meticulous style of the Germans.

Liu Yun held the information in a daze, and suddenly felt a little stunned, because he realized that there was an objective inevitability that the German army could sweep through Europe in World War II.

I don't know how long it took, Zhi Brain sent a prompt, the data had been scanned, Liu Yun woke up suddenly, rubbed his eyes, and began to review the drawings of the new tank again, only to find that this new light tank should actually be called the "Little Leopard Tank".

In other words, it is a smaller version of the No. 3 Leopard tank, whether it is the chassis system, the fire system and the cooling system, or the aiming system and communication system, it is full of rigor and meticulousness unique to the Germans, and it is extremely perfect, and it seems that the cost is not considered at all.

Liu Yun sighed helplessly in his heart, everything in heaven and earth is beneficial and harmful, and the rigor and meticulousness of the Germans led to their army, which was invincible in tactics and invincible, but in the overall pattern of the entire war process, it was defeated again and again.

The Germans are accustomed to looking only at local superiority and trying to form local superiority, as if once a local superiority is formed, the enemy will automatically lose and automatically admit defeat, thus bringing the "keyism" into full play.

Not to mention far away, let's just say that the small Leopard tank brought by Falkenhausen has obviously been defined as a light battle tank, and the task is to rely on the advantage of speed and numbers to quickly advance to the depth and solve the enemy's small remnants of infantry after the Leopard main battle tank has opened the enemy's defense line.

So where do you need a small and complete, small and fine style, the small leopard tank in terms of volume and performance, obviously dropped a lot, but in terms of cost and man-hours, it still reached 75 percent of the leopard tank, with this effort, it is better to make a full leopard tank.
