"When the Soviets attack, we will fight within 500 kilometers of Irkutsk, they are 10,000 kilometers from Moscow, and we are 500 kilometers from Irkutsk, which will put us in an extremely advantageous geographical position. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

At the combat meeting, Yang Chao made up his mind to fight defensively.

"At present, our main task is to continue to train troops, form more armored troops, and train infantry and tank coordination. Train more pilots and expand our air force. At the same time, air superiority over the Soviet army was maintained, and the bombing of Teschet continued. And to begin the bombing of Novosibirsk. ”

The airfield in Zima has been built, and from Jima, it can already cover Novosibirsk, which is more than 1,200 kilometers away, and the bombers can go to Novosibirsk to drop bombs and fly back safely.

After 10 days of continuous bombing, General Galen blindly defended passively, never taking the initiative to attack, and did not send an air force to resist.

The whole of May was spent like this, and the logistics of the Soviet army really improved, and the river network in Siberia doubled their transport capacity.

At the same time, his forces have been strengthened, replenishing the lost soldiers, and he still has 3 million troops in his hands, and they are all new troops, and the wounded and sick soldiers have been sent back to the country.

But with such a big advantage, Galen did not rashly attack, but was extremely calm, and slowly adapted to the bombing of the Tsarist Air Force step by step, so that the bombing effect of the other party slowly decreased, and it was almost useless.

Galen was learning about warfare, he learned how to deploy anti-aircraft fire more reasonably, he learned how to dig tunnels, he learned how to make more reasonable concealed defenses, how to be more reliable in concealed soldiers.

Since there was no rash air battle, they did not lose valuable aircraft, because there was no land battle, he did not lose scarce tanks, and most importantly he preserved the living forces, but more importantly, he made these soldiers no longer afraid of air attacks against superior technology, so that these soldiers were confident of victory. Thirst for offense, hatred for the enemy.

Then, the snow melted and the ice melted. The rivers froze and the ships navigated.

The railway was open, and from Moscow to Novosibirsk, trains loaded with goods were constantly entering Siberia.

Yang Chao was rather depressed about not destroying the transportation hub of Novosibirsk. I know that I have met an old and spicy opponent.

"Keep bombing, I'm going to wipe Novosibirsk off the map!"

At the military meeting, which was attended by a large number of military generals such as Wrangel and Rommel, Yang Chao shouted angrily.

After that, more intensive and frequent bombardment began, but there was nothing left to bomb in the city, but the anti-aircraft guns deployed by Galen became more and more threatening, and the large-caliber anti-aircraft guns could already hit more than 10,000 meters, but the quality of the shells was not good enough to destroy an LW3 bomber. But after each bombing, it can already be found that many planes have been shot out of bullet holes, and if this continues, one day the bombing will face a heavy price.

Yang Chao was quite surprised by the strengthening of Soviet Russia's air defense forces, but he did not expect the Soviet army to develop large-caliber anti-aircraft artillery so early, and it seems that the importance they attach to air defense is far from what Yang Chao thought.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and Yang Chao immediately informed the arsenal: "Let Wang Fugui check for me whether Soviet Russia has purchased artillery equipment in China." And has the technology of large-caliber anti-aircraft guns been transferred to them? ”

There are many equipment that can produce artillery, and many of them are dual-use, but the technology of manufacturing artillery is not something that can be found casually, and even if there are ready-made artillery to imitate, it will take a certain amount of time. Because of one-to-one mapping and imitation, you can only imitate the shape, processing technology, material technology, heat treatment process, etc., which will affect the performance. At that time, Fachang Machinery Factory imitated the British textile machine This is this problem, the exact same machine, but not as good as others' performance, because there are too many things missing.

Unless the complete set of processes is directly transferred, it is impossible for Soviet Russia to produce anti-aircraft guns so quickly with production equipment alone.

Wang Fugui has always been the chief engineer of the Shandong Arsenal, which now not only has large factories in Laiwu and Qingdao, but also has several production bases in other parts of Shandong, such as after the United States, DuPont sold the gunpowder production base in Yantai, the arsenal was acquired, General Motors' truck, tractor and tank factories were sold, the arsenal was acquired, and the Lockheed aircraft company was sold, which was also purchased by the arsenal.

The current arsenal produces almost any products related to the military industry, of course, most of them do not produce their own, such as rifles, high-yield and low-profit products, all the parts are outsourced, and the arsenal is just an assembly workshop. However, the cannon has high profits and low output, and it is difficult to maintain the production line in normal times, so the arsenal also subcontracts to other companies, such as the largest subcontractor of the cylinder of the Diesel engine is the cannon workshop of the Shandong Arsenal.

From airships, airplanes to tanks and artillery, from grenades, mines to rifles, gunpowder, almost all the military needs, in addition to warships and military uniforms and military food in the mouth, Shandong Arsenal makes everything, this kind of large and complete, the world can not find a second one, but the Soviet Russian representatives are very fond of it, they visited several European arsenals, Krupp, Schneider, Steyr, Vickers, etc., and finally chose the Shandong Arsenal.

Based on the Shandong Arsenal, the Tula Arsenal was expanded, and after the first five-year plan, this arsenal was built into one of the largest arsenals in Europe.

However, after Wang Fugui checked all the information, he found that the production technology of antiaircraft guns introduced by Soviet Russia did not have more than 80 calibers, and it was basically impossible to hit more than 10,000 meters below 80 calibers, which showed that the antiaircraft artillery that Soviet Russia had just equipped was not the technology imported from China......

Who could that be?

"Check for me, from which country did Soviet Russia buy arms recently?"

During the Great Crisis, Western countries were willing to sell even the festival, not to mention the lucrative arms, as for who the Soviet Union bought the arms to kill, they didn't care, Krupp because of the grenade technology he invented was plagiarized by the British in the European War to kill the German soldiers, and after the war, he also sued the British to a factory as compensation.

Yangzi Bank's industries all over the world immediately took action, British Vickers and other arsenals said they did not sell, France Schneider Arsenal said they did not sell, Czechoslovakia Steyr Arsenal said they did not sell either, these heavy arsenals did not sell, so who could it be?

"Could it be Germany?"

Yang Chao can only think of Germany, there are only a few countries with tens of thousands of meters of anti-aircraft artillery technology, the Americans have not established diplomatic relations with Soviet Russia at this time, because Soviet Russia refuses to admit the debt borrowed by the tsar back then, and the United States cannot sell it, then there is only Germany, Germany and Soviet Russia are actually very good in this era, Germany is the first country in Europe to sign a diplomatic treaty with Soviet Russia to recognize each other, and also signed a secret treaty.

"Impossible, Germany has not developed large anti-aircraft artillery?"

The Treaty of Versailles was very strict on the German military industry, and Zhang Nian knew very well that he did not know that Germany could still produce more than 80 anti-aircraft guns.

Yang Chao smiled bitterly: "Do you think the Germans are so honest on the surface, hmph, this nation is very cunning." The French did not let Germany study heavy machine guns, they developed a light and heavy dual-purpose universal machine gun MG34 under the pretense of developing a light and heavy machine gun, and did not let them develop tank equipment, they quietly conducted joint research in Soviet Russia, don't think that Soviet Russia can independently develop an advanced tank like the T34 with its own ability, how many of which are the foundation laid by the Germans. ”

However, Yang Chao is not very clear about this history, he is not a historian after all, if he studies history, he will know that the 88 mm anti-aircraft gun jointly developed by Krupp and Sweden's Bofors Company is the most superior medium gun in World War II.

"If you want information about Soviet and Russian anti-aircraft artillery from Krupp, it must be detailed and complete information!"

Yang Chao was sure that it was sold by the Germans, if it was only Krupp, maybe he still had some scruples, after all, their interests in China were too great, but Adolf Hitler's words were unscrupulous, that is, Yang Chao was overshadowed by Adolf.

Adolf is not the leader of other countries, he doesn't look down on the little profit that Krupp earns, he instigated Krupp to sell weapons to Soviet Russia, and must have given Krupp a guarantee that if China intervenes, they will come out to defend the Krupp company in the political mountain, and they let Krupp sell 88 anti-aircraft guns to Soviet Russia, the purpose cannot be to help Soviet Russia, the biggest purpose must be to test weapons, want to see the air defense effect of 88 anti-aircraft guns.

As soon as he thought that the mustache had used his plane as an experiment, Yang Chao began to sneer in his heart, this thing is playing conspiracy with himself, this is the beginning. But Yang Chao was not angry, is politics, that's it. However, there are comings and goings, Yang Chao is not so easy to speak, and there are times when Adolf has a headache.

Krupp was more obedient, or more concerned about China's interests, and they quickly transferred the information of the anti-aircraft gun to the Shandong Arsenal, but they demanded that if Shandong wanted to produce this artillery, it must pay Krupp a transfer fee, otherwise they had the right to protect their interests through legal means.

Whether you want to imitate it or not, you have to look at the value of this weapon, this weapon is very good, but Yang Chao doesn't know, but he soon knows.

Because finally some planes were shot down by the 88 anti-aircraft guns, it was only mid-June, and more and more planes were shot down, and the air force had begun to complain and demand a reduction in dreadnought bombing, because that part of Novosibirsk was already in ruins, and the Soviet army had built huge underground structures, and the bombing would not work at all.

Of course, Yang Chao knew that it wouldn't work, he was waiting, waiting for an opportunity. (To be continued.) )
