The intention in the arms procurement is not something that can be determined at one time, even if the major military districts and Moltke Jr. have a strong interest, they must go back to study, and after the exercise, Moltke Jr. immediately held a small meeting with the army, and after unifying his ideas, he went to meet the Kaiser. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After being notified, the last group came in, and after seeing the top level of the army, the two of them knew in their hearts that it had been a long time since the last Bordeaux attack, and it was obvious that the army should have some requirements, and they wanted the navy to cooperate, and they were more conservative, and they were not willing to enter the English Channel during this time period, and there could be no results, and when they were weak, they would not easily provoke a duel with the capital ships.

If you know that there is no result, but you want to enter the battle area, you can only support the ground, and success is certain, without much credit from them, but once you fail, the capital ship or the main ship, there is a little loss, and the board will hit them.

However, in this matter, the navy has no choice, this must be supported, the empire built a huge warship, in order to gain the advantage of the war, when the naval war is still far away, the land war has become an inevitable choice, the current land war on the German side, has achieved a considerable advantage, as long as in the vicinity of Bordeaux, the Entente army has been severely damaged, even if the Entente replenishes the navy, and Germany is about the same, or even exceeded, what can be done, drive France out of the sea, and integrate the entire Western European continent together, Germany was in an invincible position.

The meeting soon began, and as the meeting progressed, the topic was slightly different from what they had imagined, the Army was seeking help from the Navy, but not on a battleship, but on a project named Land Cruiser.

Yang Yuanzhao did not directly name the armored force tank, but used his original name, Land Cruiser, which directly misled Moltke and the German military, and they naturally pulled the navy over for help.

Almost invariably, the two opposing countries, both blamed the navy for this thing that should have been the army, Yang Yuanzhao gave the drawings, after the urgent study of German military experts, has figured out his various systems, a crawler chassis similar to a tractor, all-steel structure, covered in armor, using a high-power diesel engine, can ride 3-5 members, has more than 3 machine guns, perhaps, can have a certain caliber of artillery.

Such an original creation is very interesting to Tirpitz for a deep understanding of the naval system, because it is a land cruiser, this tank also takes into account the characteristics of the cruiser, protection, firepower and speed, and even in the middle of several times, speed is still the most important issue, these are almost the same as warships, but there are more things to consider.

This time the research is basically based on this opening, the unique charm of the armored force, here is undoubtedly shown, according to the drawings, after the study of such an epoch-making army weapon, everyone understands that once this thing is popularized on a large scale, it is almost certain that trench warfare will withdraw from the stage of history, at least, large-scale confrontation-type trench warfare, will not appear, in the tactical mode of encounters, trenches, or much stronger than not at all.

Almost naturally, the first time I came into contact with something like a tank, the first time I proposed how to counteract, the source of this drawing is the United Kingdom, and even the Land Cruiser project, which can also be found in the intelligence department, is a project affiliated with the Navy, but it is too tiny, no one pays attention to him, and when I really look at it the other way, a lot of things are full of clues, which proves the authenticity of this thing, at least, this project, Britain has been working for several years.

According to China, Britain has made quite a breakthrough in this project, and has begun to develop from the drawings to the whole vehicle, and even has a base of 3,000 vehicles, if all this is true, Germany will bear the brunt of the challenge of this weapon, how to counter is the key, and he is even greater than the creation of such a weapon.

Moltke's purpose is like this, to use tanks to draw out rocket artillery, instead of bluntly proposing it himself, although as the chief of staff of the army, a thing with a low total purchase amount, he has no problem making decisions alone, but he is careful he still does it.

Soon, regarding the technical parameters of the bazooka, the experimental results, and the battlefield expectations made by the young staff officers, such a weapon, as long as the density of the avenue is to a certain extent, can have a deterrent effect on the tank, even if it is not anti-tank, even if it is a fixed bunker defense, or a machine gun position, this bazooka has excellent results, but the price is not expensive, just a little more expensive than the 50 mortar, the standard price of the 50 mortar is 550 dollars, and the price of the anti-tank rocket launcher is 650, The price of the shell is $ 180.

With such foreshadowing, plus a weapon that is not too expensive, even 100,000 is only 65 million US dollars, and 300,000 sets plus a sufficient amount of spare ammunition will not exceed 300 million US dollars, which is not a big number.

After the course of the war, Germany is now obviously different from before, China's blood transfusion to Germany is quite in place, whether it is the introduction of a large number of labor, or a variety of raw materials, machinery and equipment, and even antiques, these have given Germany great support. The most important thing is that China is not blind, gratuitous support, occupying the largest project of support for Germany, the introduction of labor, which in the eyes of Germany, can only be used as prisoners, waste food in vain, one-third of which has become the basis for China's bricks.

They come from all walks of life, and even have higher education, or become teachers, or become qualified engineers in a certain industry, these are in short supply in China, as for the rest, women can do some tertiary industry, children can enter schools, cultivate a sense of belonging to China, as for the elderly, not to mention the number of old people, among the captives is relatively small, even if there are more, in order to stabilize them, they must also be preferential, so calculated, although Germany pays a huge amount of money every year, However, these people's labor has created even more, directly providing China with scarce mid-range talents.

Some deals are like this, if the design is good, to reach a mutually satisfactory base point, it is a win-win result, Germany lacks population, but there is no stable environment, in order to play a role in these populations, you must invest more things, to a certain extent, the gains outweigh the losses, but also dangerous, China is thousands of miles away, the huge population is enough to bear the increase in these manpower, in a desperate situation, no one can be alone, through tens of thousands of kilometers of land, Even most of the time to walk in the enemy-occupied area, and then return to the motherland, since there is no way to run, and there is no such precedent in Europe as killing the human being, on the premise of eating, it is acceptable to work for the enemy, at least, China is not the enemy in the battle like Germany.

Others, such as antiques, in the prosperous era, antiques are a very valuable thing, but also represent history and taste, but in this era of war, a priceless antique is really not as important as a division's weapons, with precious arms and materials, to exchange this thing, more or less worthless.

But Yang Yuanzhao knows that this is probably the best time to collect this, because after the end of the war, there will not be such a good opportunity, the world does not exist for the time being, it is still a society of private ownership, and private property is inviolable, even if China is in the position of the United States, it can be forced in all aspects, if the other party is unwilling to sell, there is really no way to force it to buy and sell.

China's backwardness in modern times, so that countless splendid cultural relics were plundered, lost overseas, and now spend not too much price to come back, a considerable part of which is provided by Yang Yuanzhao himself through the fund, this, because Yang Yuanzhao's decision, without hesitation, implemented it, France, Germany, a large number of Chinese cultural relics on the European continent, as well as the world's repurchase, can not say that all come back, at least to ensure that the majority, in the future, in the Chinese museum, there will be more splendid cultural relics.

In general, China supported Germany, but did not pay a large price of its own, most of it was given with high value-added arms and military materials, including even a considerable amount of medicines, especially the latter, which was quite cheap, which became China's confidence.

The Kaiser passed through the Imperial Council, basically a certainty, 35 bazookas, the number is slightly more than previously expected, this is an order of more than 200 million US dollars, each bazooka in addition to its own standard ammunition, but also add 10, the entire order is as high as 400 million US dollars, but Germany will not pay directly, this part will be offset from labor wages, oil payments, with the current production capacity of Baku close to 100 million tons, at least billions of dollars can be created every year, which is completely different from before, China happily agreed to this order, and began to agree on the time, the first batch of 100,000 sets, will be shipped within a month, and the follow-up speed will increase.

In addition to urging China to pay as soon as possible, Germany also asked Britain about when it will be ready, and the Chinese side also takes this into account, first of all, the engines sent to the UK will be delayed in a certain way, on the other hand, the production of bazooka will also be strengthened, 350,000 pieces, which can almost become the basis for mass production, and even the domestic equipment will be delayed a little, after all, China has more alternative products, and there is no urgent need for anti-tank rocket launchers like the German side.
