Chapter 305 Requirements
"Your Excellency, in view of the basis of cooperation between the two sides, I hope that you will open up all the technology of this new rifle to our side free of charge." The first thing Moder did after trying the Feng Type 918 semi-automatic rifle was to find Jiang Li.
"Colonel Modell, I don't think you have figured out the basis of cooperation between the two sides, I unconditionally open up military technology to you refers to the field in which both sides participate, and the Feng-918 semi-automatic rifle was independently developed by our side, and six years ago, when the arsenal was still in Mukden City, it began to invest huge manpower and financial resources in this rifle. Even before the cooperation with your country, the 15th Route Army had its own sample gun, and as the first world-leading new rifle owned by our side and even our country, it was not included in the cooperation project between the two sides. ”
Jiang Li looked at Moder leisurely and said, Gentle Township is a hero's mound This sentence is not wrong at all, since he has that layer of relationship with Feng Chuyan, plus now as the supreme leader of the 15th Route Army and even the Northwest, there are nearly 200,000 soldiers under his command, and there is no need for him to go into battle in person, once he relaxes, Jiang Li feels that his life seems to be more colorful than his previous military career. However, on the other hand, Jiang Licai at this time is more like a leader, and the aura of a military strategist on his body before is stronger.
"Your Excellency General, we don't talk in secret, the cooperation between you and us belongs to the highest level of cooperation, and the results can be shared in many fields. Including the semi-automatic rifle that you developed yourself this time. Presumably, His Excellency the General Army also considered transferring the technology to us, otherwise he would not have let us come into contact with the Feng 918 so early. I just don't know what the quid pro quo of His Excellency the General was. ”
Moder had no expression on his face, but the ferocious semi-automatic rifle caused no worse than an earthquake in the upper echelons of the German army. The Germans had already experimented. Two small forces of the same number encountered. The army equipped with the Feng 918 is completely capable of suppressing the side equipped with Mauser 98 in terms of firepower. Bong 918 both in terms of ammunition capacity. It still surpassed Mauser 981 in terms of rate of fire.
"Yes, I do mean that, and I'm going to keep my promise for the projects I already have. Unconditionally open to you the resources that the Northwest already has. But there are some areas where you have reservations, and rightly so. As you said, the techniques of the Bong 918 are very precious and can still be exchanged. But we only exchange with our closest friends. I need your country's U-boat technology, in addition according to the information I have received. Now Britain, the United States, Japan and other powers are developing seaplane carriers, also known as aircraft carriers. This is a completely new type of warship, and if your country is interested in developing this technology, but lacks enough space, I think I can provide some of the conditions. Jiang Li put forward his own thoughts.
"U-boats vs. seaplane carriers? His Excellency's territory seems to be at least a few thousand miles from the sea, and is entirely an inland province. Even if His Excellency owned submarines and seaplane carriers, how could he drive these things into the deep sea? Moreover, a fleet of small sizes is vulnerable to the combined fleet of the Japanese army, and Japan will not allow your country to have a large military port under any circumstances. Modell glanced at Jiang Li in surprise. Although from the bottom of his heart, Moder still doesn't quite approve of this backward and fragmented country, but he has the impression that Jiang Li is a very wise decision-maker. Whether it is to build a large-scale navy or to carry out research and development on warships, it is a very money-consuming thing, and Moder did not understand why Jiang Li made such a decision for a while.
"Colonel Modell, sooner or later our country will be reunified, and sooner or later we will have to fight a national war with the Japanese army that will decide the fate of the two countries. Japan cannot wait until it is time for a decisive battle with Japan at sea to develop these technologies, and even if this technology is not needed in the northwest now, and it may become obsolete in a few years, I will not give up such seemingly useless efforts as long as it can add a slight possibility of victory in the future. ”
"Your Excellency, even so, if you want to develop these techniques, you must have a place where you can train enough." Moder looked at Jiang Li with a little more respect in his eyes, but he still reminded him loudly, trying to make Jiang Li realize the cruelty of reality.
"I have already thought about the location, there is an inland lake in the northwest, with an area of several thousand square kilometers, and it may not be enough to build large combat ships, but the experimental ships are not a big problem, and the experiment of submarines is not a problem at all."
Since such a request has been made, it is natural that it will not be stumped by the most basic questions.
"I will truthfully transfer the request of His Excellency the General back to the country." Modell nodded and got up, and with that, the conversation between the two sides was over.
"Quiet Hou Jiayin." Jiang Li stood up and nodded in response.
"Commander, in the early hours of yesterday morning, the Chahar Anti-Japanese Allied Army conquered Duolun." Shortly after Moder left, the adjutant's office sent an update on Chahar's developments.
"What about the casualties?" Jiang Li asked.
"The Allied army suffered nearly 2,000 casualties, and the Japanese puppet army suffered more than 1,000 casualties." Adjutant Hu Zhongyi said.
"Either way, it's a good thing to be able to get back to Toron. Leave it to them. ”
Jiang Li said calmly, it is not that the number of enemies killed by the Allied Army is too small, in fact, it is not easy to persist in the war of resistance under the triple blockade of Nanjing, Yan Xishan and the Japanese army. However, Nanjing's actions at this time were somewhat chilling, before Yang Hucheng transferred from the 17th Route Army, Feng Qinya's troops failed to participate in the frontal battle in the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War, nor did they withdraw with Wang Tiehan, but continued to accept Nanjing's orders and Xu Tingyao, Pang Bingxun, Fu Zuoyi and other troops to encircle the Chahar Anti-Japanese Allied Army, although it has not been directly started, but the material and economic blockade has made it difficult for the Allied Army. At this time, the 15th Route Army was at the juncture where the cooperation with Germany was the closest, and the outcome of the Chahar Anti-Japanese Alliance was already doomed from the time it was established. And its internal composition itself is too complicated, with a nest of cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods. Whether it is for the northwest or the future war of resistance, at this time can only abandon the anti-Japanese alliance.
"How's the battle going on that side of Jiangxi?" Jiang Li asked again.
"Nanjing organized the fifth encirclement and suppression, and judging from the current operational situation, the situation was not very good for the red side, and the red side abandoned the usual idea of successful guerrilla warfare and turned to fight a tough battle and positional warfare with Nanjing. Now that the situation has deteriorated rapidly, and it is often impossible to shake the position of the Central Army even after sacrificing thousands of soldiers, I heard that the change in operational thinking is largely due to the role of the Soviets in it, and a number of leaders and officers with correct ideas have been replaced. The adjutant spoke briefly.
"Bananas in the south can't grow normally in Lanzhou. The successful revolutionary example in the north will also be unsuitable to the south of the Yangtze River, and the revolution will always have sacrifices, so let him go. Jiang Li waved his hand, whether it is a person or a political party, there will always be some pains on the road of growth, for the current chaotic land, these twists and turns will become a dull written record in history.
