The 49th New Weapons Exhibition
Through GuΓ² Wall's introduction, Han Xing learned that this Walty was Wall's younger brother, a company commander of a captain tank regiment who was retired from the U country.
Han Xing said to Wall: "Dear Mr. Wall, it's not enough for you to just send us tanks, you still need to train a tank unit!" According to our Chinese words, it is to eat and eat, and the officials are done. β
Wall shrugged his shoulders and said, "My boss, I have thought of what you said a long time ago, which is why I called my brother Walty, as well as some of his veteran friends. β
Han Xing nodded and said, "I've thought of the name, it's called the Volunteer Tank Team." This name was conceived by Han Xing from the Volunteer Air Force.
Wall frowned when he heard this, and said, "My boss, I understand what you mean, that is, refusing to pay the salary, right?" Then I'll get rid of the volunteer and change to a mercenary tank team. β
Han Xing patiently explained to him: "Volunteering is very different from hiring, you have thought about it." Hiring, it is a private arm, it is a fight for money. And volunteering, fighting for the good of the country. Soon after, there will be a war between Japan and the U country, and if you are a volunteer, you will be a hero who has made sacrifices for the sake of the national interest. If you're a mercenary, no one will pay attention to you. You are a trader, you don't understand this truth, that is, to suffer a small loss and make a big profit. In the future, the state will open the door to your business for great convenience, and it will already compensate for the small loss of wages. β
"Take a small loss and take a big advantage......" Wall pondered Han Xing's words for a long time, "I find that you are very good at speaking. Your words made me take the risk of getting M2 tanks from country U, and it was your words again, refusing to pay the coach's salary. However, I am a citizen of country U, and no matter how much businessmen can make money, they can't live without the country. Well, I was convinced by you......"
Outside the workshop, a Japanese bean chariot has long been simulated, which is a steel hut improvised from 12 mm steel plates.
Walty "Hello-" summons a group of his tank friends, and then gets into the M2 tank one by one. As soon as the engine was turned on, it was deafening, and after a short period of engine warm-up, the tank slowly and steadily drove out of the workshop, leaving two slippery track marks on the ground.
As soon as it drove out of the workshop, the tank car was not it, it was completely like a madman, first of all, running at full speed. It was really flying sand obscuring the sun, and the ground was raising high dust, and it was faster than a car in the field.
The regiment commanders have all seen the speed of the Bean Chariot, and in terms of speed, it must be that the M2 is much faster than the Bean Chariot. When it comes to speed, everyone is sure.
Then the M2 showed its agility, running and running, and the tank car made a 360-degree turn on the spot. Despite the crunching of the track shoes, it managed to make a big turn in 3 seconds.
This thrilling change startled everyone at first. This was followed by a round of applause.
The M2 tank car, again performed its turret steering. While the tank is moving, its turret makes a 360-degree turn, which means, of course, that the gun can fire at will within 360 degrees.
The Bean Chariot was different, its turret was square. And you have to rely on manual pulling to turn, which is too slow and too tiring. In terms of flexibility, it has been affirmed by everyone.
Now it's the turn of the real combat fire, and this M2 tank is not directly running towards the hypothetical bean chariot to attack. If it is a direct running attack, the opponent's artillery will easily hit the tank, because the tank car is actually like a dead object in a straight running attack.
This M2 tank is horizontal, let's just say, that is, it attacks the opponent's bean tank diagonally.
If you are running sideways or attacking diagonally, it will be difficult for the opponent to catch the moving target. Calculating the amount of advance, after all, adds a lot of difficulty.
The M2 tank was on the move, constantly firing machine-gun bullets. Similarly, when the tank is running, the target has also become active in disguise, which also increases the difficulty of shooting for oneself.
These machine-gun bullets either hit the front, rear and bottom of the target, or flew past the target and jumped high into the sky. Of course, there were also some bullets that hit the target's steel plate, only to hit the steel plate with a ping-pong sound.
The tank fired the cannon, which was Huati personally operating the cannon, and only heard a "bang" sound, and the sound of the cannon being ejected. A black projectile flew into the sky, drew a graceful arc, and then smashed into the "bean chariot" with a "boom", blowing the "bean chariot" into the air, and throwing the steel plate into the air in a chaotic manner.
The audience burst into warm applause and applause.
Han Xing was not so happy, and frowned slightly. This cannon was a good shot, but the accuracy of the machine gun was still quite far from the actual battle. This is still a bullet fired by the tank soldiers of country U, if you call the new tank soldiers to get on the car, then you don't know where the bullets flew?
Han Xing picked up a piece of steel plate on the ground that had blown up and looked at it, there were deep marks on the steel plate, but these machine gun bullets still did not penetrate these 12 mm thick steel plates. Han Xing said to Zhang Weihan: "Commander Zhang, these machine guns of country U should be withdrawn, I think it is better to replace them with our two 12.7mm heavy machine guns!" Also, in order to strengthen the self-defense ability of tank crews, each person is equipped with an assault rifle. β
Zhang Weihan nodded and said, "I agree." β
At this time, Liu Zhiyuan ran over excitedly and said to Zhang Weihan: "Commander Zhang, how many such tanks are we going to assemble?" β
Zhang Weihan said: "For the time being, there is one battalion, that is, 36 combat vehicles. β
"Well," shouted Zhang Weihan, "the mortar battalion has been withdrawn from our regiment, and our regiment will suffer a great loss." Now it's okay, this tank battalion will be given to us, and now it will be compensated, and we will admit it. β
Hou Dashan was a little unbalanced, and asked: "Commander Zhang, our regiment is a heavy artillery regiment, all of them are modern, and with this tank battalion, then it will be complete." I strongly urge that this tank battalion be given to our regiment. β
Li Fengzao was annoyed when he heard it, and shouted loudly: "Why! Why! We are the main force, but let's look at our main force and the appearance of the main force! There is no heavy artillery, there is no mortar battalion, it just so happens that there is not a tank battalion, the tank battalion is right for us. β
Song Fengqi of the Second Regiment of the Main Force was also anxious when he heard this, everyone fought back and forth, if he didn't fight again, this tank battalion would really have no share of his own, he added fuel to the fire and said: "Our Second Regiment of the Main Force has never opened its mouth to Commander Zhang and asked for something." I'm going to be cheeky today. Commander Zhang, this is the first time I've opened my mouth, and this tank battalion is ours. β
Hao Guofan of the Independent Regiment spoke more directly: "It seems that they are all combat troops, and our Independent Regiment is not fighting." We have the worst weapons, and to whom to say, this tank battalion should also be ours. β
The quarrel made Zhang Weihan's head big, and criticized them and said: "Look at your virtue! See all the good things. Why didn't I hear anyone say, we don't want this tank battalion, let's give it to our brother troops. We have ambition, and the weapon is taken from the hands of the little devil! Why didn't anyone say such a thing? Are these tanks easy to come by, how much effort did Commander Han take to get them from country U! How to allocate the specific tank vehicles, it is up to Commander Han to decide. Now let's draw elite soldiers from each unit to train tank soldiers......"
As soon as these people heard that the matter of the tank battalion belonged to Han Xing, they flocked to Han Xing again. Liu Zhiyuan squeezed his eyes at Han Xing, which means that we are the eighth child and must be given to me. Hou Dashan touched Han Xing, which means, I am your person, and the building near the water will get the moon first.
Li Fengzao shouted, Song Fengqi shouted, Hao Guofan shouted, and it was a mess again.
Han Xing explained to them: "There are two methods of tank warfare, one is dispersed use. The Soviet Union used this tactic, but it was not ideal and suffered a big loss. Germany, on the other hand, concentrated on the use of tanks and assembled a powerful assault force from tanks. We don't have many tanks, so we have to concentrate them and use them as an assault force for 10 detachments. Therefore, this tank battalion does not belong to any regiment, but to the headquarters of the 10th detachment, and it is up to Commander Zhang to decide how to use it. β
At this moment, everyone was discouraged, and after fighting for a while, no one in the tank battalion won it.
In order to encourage everyone's affection, Han Xing said: "Don't be unhappy, there is a little play here, I don't know if you are interested?" β
As soon as they heard that Han Xing had a new weapon, everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes one by one, looking at Han Xing, they all wondered in their hearts, what kind of weapon is this? Isn't there any new machine gun, new grenade or anything like that!
Han Xing shouted at Wang Weapon: "Director Wang, you can show everyone!" β
Unhurriedly, Wang Bing brought a rabbit cage and a chicken coop from a room, which contained a rabbit and a live chicken.
Liu Zhiyuan was amused when he saw it, and said to Han Xing: "Before it's time to eat, you will give us live creatures." It's also a pot, and everyone has meat to eat at noon. β
As soon as Wang Bing raised his hand, a worker came out with three gas cylinders on his back, and a pipe in his hand. In the middle of the tube, there is also a small thing that resembles a generator or something.
Hou Dashan asked Han Xing incomprehensibly: "What kind of thing is this, didn't it pop out with a cannon on your back!" If the shells could be fired without artillery, I, the regiment commander, would be unemployed. β
Li Fengzao is quite highly educated, and blocked Hou Dashan's mouth: "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense, it interrupts my train of thought." β
The king gave an order: "Start firingβ"
The worker ran towards the rabbit cage and the chicken cage, and when he was still forty or fifty meters away, he fell to the ground at once. Then, as soon as the tube was twisted, a strong current of oil and gas sprayed towards the rabbit cage and chicken cage. As he squirted, he twisted the small generator in his hand, and the current of oil and gas suddenly turned into a fiery dragon, flying towards the chicken cage and rabbit cage.
With a "boom-" sound, the oil and gas that had not been burned were also ignited in an instant.
