"If they were given a chance, they would be the best fighters. If they were to be used as slaves, they would never give in. In the Renault car, Qin Zhiyuan explained the reason for this to Misha.

"So you pulled them into your sixth regiment and turned them into your warriors." Mi Xia said, and the scene of Qin Zhiyuan bribing Falcao appeared in front of her again.

For Mixia, Qin Zhiyuan is a mystery, he is an angel in the eyes of the warriors, a demon in the eyes of the enemy, sometimes he is compassionate, sometimes he is despicable and shameless. In short, in Mixia's eyes, Qin Zhiyuan is a person who is both righteous and evil, and has a lot of personal charm.

If Qin Zhiyuan knows his image in Mixia's heart, then Qin Zhiyuan will definitely remind Mixia: Be careful chick, when you are interested in a man, it means that you are about to fall in love with him.

Of course, the current Qin Zhiyuan has not seen his heart clearly. Qin Zhiyuan knows his Misha and Julie's entanglement, if he talks about love, then it is a bit presumptuous, if he says that he has a good impression of each other, it is certain.

With this confusion, Qin Zhiyuan came to Boulogne-Billancourt, the headquarters of Renault in France.

From the beginning of entering Paris, Qin Zhiyuan felt the strength of Renault, almost all the taxis and private cars on the streets of Paris are made by Renault, and the huge billboards on the roadside when entering the city of Paris fully demonstrate Renault's influence in France.

In his previous life, Qin Zhiyuan was in the Operations Department and had been to Paris more than once, so Qin Zhiyuan was no stranger to Paris. Paris at the beginning of the 20th century was unattractive to Qin Zhiyuan, not to mention the huge smoke and dust that shrouded the city, which made Qin Zhiyuan not interested in visiting here.

Renault's headquarters, which looks unremarkable from the outside, is a six-story building, which is far from befitting the title it holds. During World War I, Renault was France's largest manufacturer of automobiles, aircraft, and weapons and ammunition.

Louis Renault, the owner of Renault, personally went downstairs to greet Qin Zhiyuan.

Louis Leno was emaciated, his head looked unusually large because of a large back, a thick beard, and a pair of eyes as sharp as a falcon.

"Qin, welcome to you." Louis Renault offered to extend his hand and show a friendly attitude.

"Thank you, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Louis." Qin Zhiyuan held Louis's hand lightly and shook it lightly.

"I've heard about you, angel, it's touching, and I hope Renault will have a great time." Louis has clearly done his homework, and it's like a spring breeze.

"Yes, I hope so, too. I am very honored to have the opportunity to work with a company like Renault. "Anyway, they are touting each other, Qin Zhiyuan picked up something nice.

"Hehe, I noticed that you are using a Renault car, how do you feel? Would you like to fill out an investigation report with me, an old Renault? Luis jumped at the chance and made a joke.

"Great car, if Mr. Louis you want to get a usage report from me, I will give it a big positive review!" This is not against his will, Qin Zhiyuan has a really good feeling about Renault cars.

"Please let me introduce you." After Renault finished speaking, he sideways introduced the people who came out to greet him: "This is the chief technician of Renault and the chief technical representative of Renault for this cooperation: Mr. Jean Pierce." ”

Qin Zhiyuan took the initiative to stretch out: "Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”

……

After some politeness, Qin Zhiyuan went to the conference room with Louis and others. There, Qin Zhiyuan will represent the French military and propose a number of technical standards.

“…… In short, the tank we needed was different from the British tank, it had to be light and agile, it had strong passability, and it had to be able to travel 100 kilometers at a speed of 10 kilometers per hour, and in order to meet this design requirement, I envisioned a tank consisting of two parts, a turret that could rotate 360 degrees, and a hull that could ride the driver and install the engine. In this way, only two people are needed to operate a tank, one person is responsible for the stance, and one is responsible for shooting, which is 6 fewer than the British Mark 1. ”

What Qin Zhiyuan said is the specific data of the Renault FT-17 tank in his impression.

"If the required standard is like this, then with our current technical reserves, it will not be difficult to complete it." Jean Pierce was a bald Humpty Dumpty, always with a pencil in his hand, and was always writing and drawing, sometimes in a notebook, sometimes on the door of his head.

The British Mark I had a crew of 8 people, half of whom were used to drive the tank. Qin Zhiyuan's request to reduce the number of people from 8 to 2 people will reduce the body and weight, although the technical requirements of the crew members will be improved, but it is still worth it if the purpose of speeding up can be achieved.

"Wait, there are other requirements, since the Mark I was put into service, the Germans must have been developing their own tanks, so, in our hypothesis, the Germans will also have tanks. Therefore, I asked for the hull to be as wide as possible for ammunition to be loaded, and to use thicker steel plates to provide better protection for key points in the hull. At the same time, the weapons installed on the tank should be selected, one with machine guns to fight the German infantry, and one with 37 mm guns to attack the Germans' armored units or to attack the Germans' fixed firing points. ”

"Thicker plates? So how thick does it have to be to be compliant? If it is too thick, it will affect the vehicle's mobility, causing its speed and endurance to be substandard. Pierce was in a lawsuit, and the pencil in his hand was writing quickly.

"At least at a distance of 500 meters, it is necessary to withstand the fire of German heavy machine guns." Qin Zhiyuan knew some ways to enhance the protection ability of the tank, such as inclined armor and external armor, but these concepts were too advanced, and Qin Zhiyuan didn't want to give them to the French.

"Heavy machine gun, this is not difficult, is there any other requirement?" Pierce lifted his eyes and gave him an inquiring look.

"There is only one requirement left, to build a prototype car as quickly as possible, and once it passes the test, it will be fully produced as quickly as possible." Qin Zhiyuan remembered that in the near future, it was possible for his command to have an armored unit, so he was a little impatient.

"Designing a tank is not a big problem for us, our problem is production, a large number of young people have gone to the battlefield, we do not have enough skilled workers, which may become the biggest bottleneck restricting production capacity." Louis Reynaud, who was present, spoke and wanted to express his difficulties to the French government through Qin Zhiyuan.

"Mr. Louis, I have a suggestion on this subject, and we can talk about it separately later." Qin Zhiyuan has nothing in his hands now, just someone.

"Okay, Qin, if you have a good suggestion, I'd be happy to listen." Louis Renault nodded, full of expectations for Qin Zhiyuan.

"So, that's it for the meeting, and we're going to do our part now." As a representative of the military, Foch gave Qin Zhiyuan sufficient rights.

"Pinocchio, your nose looks a little longer." As soon as the meeting ended, Julie found Qin Zhiyuan with a bad face.
