The situation in Australia has changed dramatically, China has received help from the Australian high-level, and has mastered everything very well for the Australian high-level, done every step right, and maintained huge pressure on Australia, and the idea of transshipment of precious metals has completely failed.

Always let Germany as a transit, which is not in the interests of the Chinese side, and even in the later period, China established direct contact with the other side, a radio station that can contact 120 kilometers, was sent to Ferrola's home by special forces, and gave Ferrola a simple training, he does not need to know a lot of telegram things, as long as there are a few signals as a means of contact, you can inform the Chinese side of important information, some more critical, special forces will go in again to take away intelligence.

If China can find European special forces and intelligence officers, it can also be lined up to Ferra, but China does not, although there are Caucasian nationals, but they have just been attached, and it is no problem to use it at home, once it is placed in the important affairs of the country, it is inevitable that there will be problems, and it is unlikely that training Ferrora will only be able to use this temporary method.

Fortunately, this stage will not be too long, and now China is going all out to connect the highway in central Australia, as long as the highway is through, all the logistics supplies come up, and when the logistics are not a problem, China can attack the southeast coast of Australia at any time, and take this part of Australia's most elite, the most wealthy, and the most populous place.

A connection that Australia did not expect, it was established, and then a series of losses in Australia are directly related to this, of course, a secret channel, can not change the status quo, but can make China become deaf and clear, Australia and China, the inequality in strength, whether it is the army, or the navy is the same, crack the secret way to transport gold, they will not have any way back.

The United States and Britain are also very aware of the crisis that Australia is facing, but they are helplessly too far apart, Australia is far away from Britain, and the United States, coupled with the strength of China, while taking the entire Pacific Islands and most of Australia, they can also attack Alaska, send a large number of Japanese troops to Alaska, and directly make the United States almost withdraw from the European battlefield, China is too close to Australia, Southeast Asia is almost close to Australia, From East Timor to Darwin in Australia, it is only a few hundred kilometers, but the United States and the United Kingdom, no matter where they provide support, need to sail more than 10,000 kilometers, which directly frustrates the idea of support.

Everything can only rely on Australia, if Australia can hold on, then everything is fine, if it can't hold on, it can only be resigned, at this moment, the Australian army still fighting in Europe, do not know that their hometown, has been attacked by the Chinese side, almost occupied, if the news spreads, it will inevitably affect the morale of the military.

Britain and the United States did not do nothing, they were preparing for the next land battle, and the tank, a new weapon born from motor vehicles, was quickly finalized and began to be produced in small batches after having a strong core.

Derbyshire, England, the Army Proving Ground will be, it is best to have 300 tanks in full gear, because they are using Chinese 180 horsepower engines, these armored vehicles than the prototype, there have been huge changes, the total weight from 20 tons, increased to 26.5 tons, the tank as a heavy weapon, the growth of tonnage, to a large extent, represents the improvement of strength, the increase, most of the armor part, the thickness of the armor than the prototype, at least 2 times thicker.

The most important thing is that in the case of getting the attention of the United Kingdom, some of the engineers who specially designed armor for the ship were brought to the tank group, and in the layout of the armor, more focused arrangements were chosen, such as thickening in the front, more important places, and reducing the back, or even less important places, so that even in the same weight, the protection capacity of the tank has been increased by more than 3 percent, not to mention the increase in tonnage, at least 4 tons of armor increased to the tank, It is even more reborn of the tank, that is, as long as it is not in the nearest place, all the infantry firepower cannot meet this, even if it is a small-caliber artillery, it must be placed at a distance of 300 meters to be able to break through the defense of armored vehicles, unless it is a direct hit by large-caliber artillery, otherwise, the tank is invincible on land.

The tank is an offensive weapon, not a defensive one, even if an iron shell can break through the defense of trench warfare, it does not play much role, only the combination of attack and defense, itself on the tank, there is only one Maxim machine gun, because the weight is increased, the volume of the tank is increased, the number of machine guns has doubled to 4, the members are 6 people, 4 shooters, 1 driver, a lookout, which almost forms a complete system.

At the same time as the defense increases, the attack is enhanced, and the firepower is almost more than 5 times that of the previous one, all thanks to the improvement in power, and even in order to balance, the British have made a variety of different attempts on the layout of the entire tank, and the final selected scheme is even better, 6 crew members, can handle more firepower, and even a 20 mm or so cannon, this thing is barely installed, but his power is enough to be much greater than before.

The previous tank was designed to be destroyed by machine gun fire at close range, in some weak environments, but now, strengthening the important parts, even the shooter's, has a steel plate of sufficient thickness to protect it, which was born from the design of the battleship's protective turret, which is enough for the tank, in a sense, the tank has become a weapon armed to the teeth.

There is even a researcher who put forward an amazing idea, that is, to install artillery on the tank, artillery is the king of the army, Napoleon was the best at using artillery, and even the fixed use of artillery, reduced its size, put on wheels, and turned it into a mobile artillery, which directly made France's military strength the first in the world, and in that era, almost unified the whole of Europe.

With the tank as the basis, the installation of an artillery gun, it seems that the possibility is not small, but when it is really installed, it is found that there are many problems, too large artillery is definitely not good, too much superstructure, it will affect the balance of the entire tank, but it is too small, it is not good, at present, on the tank, a 20 mm rapid-fire machine gun is the main, 2 Maxim and 2 light machine guns, moderate weight, powerful firepower, really get a 37 smoothbore gun up, may be in the unit time, the firepower density provided, is not as good as the machine gun, it does not have the effect of increasing firepower, but when the caliber increases to 50, 60, or even 75, it takes up more weight, and how to balance personnel and firepower is a big problem, at least without long-term research, it is impossible to get results.

The prospect is very good, and if it is even possible, it will completely change the direction of the tank war, but at this moment, Britain does not have the time to focus on this, compared with the deterrent power of artillery, I am afraid that the killing efficiency of machine guns will be a little greater.

Britain has been in the war for too long, and under the current circumstances, ending the war as soon as possible and dealing with a China that suddenly appeared is the best choice, rather than seeking some powerful weapons.

300 tanks produced in small batches, an exercise was carried out, 300 tanks, lined up in a relatively dense formation, impacting an army of 50,000 people to build fortifications, the final result of the exercise is happy, in the face of army-level firepower, the number of tanks that really hit is not much, the speed of 20 kilometers per hour, it seems to be slow, but in the irregular battlefield situation, an army of more than 120 large-caliber guns, in 30 minutes of battle, only 30 hits, less than one-tenth, or even in 30 vehicles, There is also a hit in front of the most well-protected place, at most it can only be damaged, not destroyed, as for the explosion on the side, whether it is shrapnel or shock wave, for ordinary infantry, the lethality is greater, but for tanks, it has no effect at all, after all, they are only anti-infantry, and there is no armor-breaking effect.

A 26.5-ton tank, it may be impossible for a ten-level wind to blow him away, let alone some shock waves, as for shrapnel, in front of a tank that has undergone surface hardening, in most cases, it is only a little scratch, and even in some cases, even scratches are not very good.

The exercise was a complete success, but it also exposed some weaknesses of tanks, that is, a little weak, it is necessary to increase the number of tanks in an area to a certain extent, in order to form dense firepower and sufficient impact, 300 tanks to impact a military camp is a little thin, and therefore caused subsequent damage, after a time, at least 3 percent of the tanks withdraw from the battle, if the number increases a little, the loss will be very small, this is a problem of attack intensity and defense strength, this, Even Britain didn't think about it before.

The exercise was successful, the combat effectiveness of the tank was determined, and they quickly gave the tank a given type, and then prepared for large-scale production. The most important thing is that the number is really large, according to the actual combat effect of the current tanks, on the premise of a comprehensive assessment of the combat effectiveness of a single vehicle, Britain found that if you want to break the German camp, and its own losses are not large, the previous estimate of 12,000 tanks is still a little insufficient, the possibility of breaking is there, but the loss will increase, or not increase a little.
