According to the content of the previous secret meeting in Kyoto, Hu Shengsong once again made a request to Li Baoqiang.

In addition to ordering a batch of civilian products, guns and ammunition for oil, Hu Shengsong once again added a batch of old-fashioned jeeps, ordering 400 in one go.

However, for this kind of jeep, Hu Shengsong put forward specific requirements: the vehicle load capacity is not less than 280 kg, the total weight of the vehicle is not more than 590 kg, the wheelbase is more than 1 905 mm, the height is not less than 915 mm, the maximum speed is 81 km / h, it has a square body, four-wheel drive, and a foldable windshield.

After receiving the telegram, Li Baoqiang was puzzled that the Chengdu Automobile Factory was indeed producing an old-fashioned jeep.

Those SUVs with ABS, automatic transmission, etc., in the last days of fuel shortage, are pure garbage, and they are no longer produced at all, and instead began to produce old-fashioned jeeps similar to the Beijing 2020V Jeep.

Li Baoqiang's luxury Hummers were also thrown to the automobile factory and dismantled the research structure.

Li Baoqiang also mentioned Hu Shengsong and Zhang Yaoyang during the secret meeting in Kyoto, but now Hu Shengsong has put forward an order for 400 vehicles, which makes Li Baoqiang very curious.

Li Baoqiang was studying the plan of action for going south with Wang Zhiming, Li Dayong, Huang Kai, Huang Chen, Mu Ye and others, and by the way, he mentioned Hu Shengsong's telegram to everyone, and his own questions were also raised.

Everyone studied the data requested by Hu Shengsong, and they were very puzzled, this did not match the size of the Beijing 2020 jeep, and it seemed a bit troublesome to tear down and restart the production line.

Li Baoqiang was about to call back to consult Hu Shengsong, Huang Kai suddenly patted his head and shouted: "I know!" ”

Damn, this voice startled everyone.

Wang Zhiming said angrily: "Super Soldier King, are you trying to scare people to death, don't pay for your life or what?" ”

"Sauri, I suddenly remembered, haha. Sauri. ”

Huang Kai scratched his scalp and smiled awkwardly.

"Sao Rui, you big head, tell me quickly, what do you remember?"

"Guys, which of you have seen the movie 'General Patton'?" Huang Kai asked slyly, as if others didn't know the answer, and he looked awesome.

"General Patton? I understand, just such a little common sense, you are still pretending to be a ghost, I despise you! Wang Zhiming pointed his thumb up, then flipped down, and made a gesture of disdain.

"Then you can talk about it, by the way, you invite us to eat Nanjing osmanthus duck." Huang Kai grimaced.

"Look at your stingy appearance, where has the osmanthus duck arrived, the order of four hundred vehicles, how many barrels of crude oil is that, just let Commander Li treat you." Wang Zhiming said with a grin.

"Hurry up, make it clear, I'll treat you to a big meal! Maxim West Restaurant, with Madame! ”

Li Baoqiang made a decision, and the atmosphere between several people did not arise because of the promotion of official positions, which made Li Baoqiang very pleased.

"In fact, this is the size of the American military jeep MB during World War II, and the MB jeep is a god-like legend. Gee. ”

Wang Zhiming yearns for the look very much, as an otaku military fan back then, he knows too much about the US military jeep in World War II.

During World War II, the American company Willis produced one MB military jeep every minute and a half, and a total of 350,000 units were produced throughout World War II.

The MB jeep is equipped with a four-cylinder L-shaped engine, which is very powerful; Installing a folding canvas canopy can be easily opened; The 6-volt battery can be used to meet the power consumption of each system of the vehicle; The headlights are mounted on a bracket with a tie knob, which can be rotated to facilitate illumination when the engine is repaired at night; The engine is also capable of powering equipment such as radar, radio, welder and aircraft landing indication.

The MB is equipped with a 3-speed manual gearbox, four-wheel drive, and can be fitted with a 7.62 mm or 12.7 mm machine gun.

In addition to transporting personnel and military supplies, the car can also tow artillery and railway cars, etc., and when towing railway cars, it is only necessary to change the tires to steel wheels specially used for driving on rails.

The flat hood of the jeep could be used as an altar for chaplains or a table for soldiers to play cards.

On the field, the jeep can also be used as a field ambulance, and can carry up to four stretchers for a maximum time.

The MB jeep has a maximum speed of 97 km/h, a climbing range of 40 degrees, a roll gradient of up to 50 degrees, and a steering radius of 6.1 meters.

The MB Jeep's small size, light weight, plenty of power, good handling, and excellent strategic and tactical mobility make it very useful in campaigns.

The number of jeeps is so large and widely used that there are jeeps in many films and television films, and even in the fifties and sixties of the last century, we can often see American jeeps shuttling frequently in the streets and alleys.

After that, the jeep removed all unnecessary parts, including the windshield and radiator grille, and sometimes even the shock absorbers were removed to allow for more fuel and fresh water.

In order to reduce water consumption, a water condenser was added to the front of the radiator, in addition to this, the car carried a long-range radio station and a large amount of ammunition.

SAS jeeps are equipped with powerful firepower, consisting of Vickers machine guns in pairs and Browning machine guns in zero settings, and some SAAS jeeps can carry up to 5 light machine guns!

When all weapons are fired at the same time, a SAS jeep is capable of firing 5,000 rounds in one minute.

In a raid on November 17, 1941, 2 SAS detachments equipped with jeeps destroyed 61 German planes parked on the ground in just a few minutes. By November 1942, SAS had destroyed more than 400 German combat aircraft, and jeeps were a success. At the end of World War II, SAS sent 144 members of the SAS team to parachute into enemy-occupied areas of France with jeeps, and in a raid, 4 SAS members in jeeps killed and wounded more than 60 SS soldiers and destroyed 3 military vehicles!

George, who served as Chief of the General Staff of the U.S. Army in World War II and later as Secretary of State of the USA? The General Marshall Award for Jeep is "the greatest honor of the USA to modern warfare." Simple, durable, and ubiquitous, jeeps have become the best companion for USA GIs.

"Damn, isn't this a desert artifact! No wonder Hu Shengsong wants to order a jeep! ”

The more Li Baoqiang pondered, the more he felt that Hu Shengsong definitely had a purpose in ordering this car, wouldn't 400 be an army of jeeps with 2,000 people, what was Hu Shengsong going to do?

After thinking about it, Li Baoqiang pondered that Hu Shengsong must have been stimulated by the telegram, and he was going to advance into black Africa to seize resources.

It seems that his proposal still has a role, and it must be supported to advance into black Africa!

Li Baoqiang immediately contacted the Chengdu Automobile Factory to see if he could rebuild the production of such a type of jeep.

An hour later, the Chengdu Automobile Factory called back, and today's Beijing 2020V Jeep is a Wrangler version with very superior performance.

I can't check much with the slight changes and the size provided by Hu Shengsong, but the performance surpasses that of the World War II jeep, and the Chengdu Automobile Factory has produced more than 400 military models, which are ready to be sold to the Civil Defense Army.

Li Baoqiang was very excited to hear the news, the military jeep has good off-road performance, and it can also be used in tropical rainforest areas.

Li Baoqiang immediately decided to add another 500 Beijing 2020V to the Chengdu Automobile Factory on behalf of the Civil Defense Force, and these 500 jeeps will be distributed to the whole army, of which 50 will be taken to Nanyang to withstand the test of the tropical rainforest.

It is worth mentioning that the order of nearly 1,000 vehicles has made the Chengdu Automobile Factory start construction on the whole line, which has set off the first economic construction of the first five-year plan, a virtuous circle, and has driven many industries such as metallurgy, casting, and rubber, which Li Baoqiang did not expect.

Li Baoqiang called back and told Hu Shengsong that half a month later, a large formation would leave for Saudi Arabia, and the 400 jeeps that Hu Shengsong had ordered would also go with him.
