Chapter Twenty-Nine: Turning to the Other Side
In the afternoon, a group of senior executives of the Elven Dragon Security Company gathered in the conference room to discuss whether the Elven Dragon Security Company should take over the business of supporting the Hilton Empire.
There were six more people from the Osville Empire in attendance, and Zhang Shixin was a little relieved to see that these people were not sitting together because of geographical factors.
After all, there will be gangs and factions in every world, Zhang Shixin is not surprised by this, but well, the more serious the situation of gangs and factions, then he doesn't want to be the boss of this company easily.
So after seeing such a situation, Zhang Shixin was still a little comfortable.
Of the six new additions, the identities of three have been deliberately modified, after all, there is no longer the once prominent and noble surname of Osville in this world.
In the eyes of outsiders, the three of them are called Wells brothers and sisters, and they are talents who were recommended by Mao Sui after Zhang Shixin returned to the fiefdom.
There are many people in the Elven Dragon Security Company who are very aware of the facts, but the parties and their own bosses have no opinions, and they are not easy to say anything. As a result, such a situation has become a "secret" that is not made public.
After all the personnel came to the conference room, Zhang Shixin nodded, and then said: "In this meeting, I think everyone knows very well what the topic is. You can talk about whether we should take this business or not. ”
Zhang Shixin finished his words and looked at the subordinates in front of him.
However, the person who spoke was a bit unexpected by Zhang Shixin, neither Firay, nor Strar, nor Dressers, but Andy, who served as the logistics director.
Andy stood up and saw that everyone was looking at him, so he took a deep breath before saying, "Boss, what is our logistics system now...... It's quite confusing, and if you're there, it's not obvious, but if you go somewhere else, we sometimes get a little bit of trouble with training. So, can we unify our equipment system? ”
Zhang Shixin didn't expect Andy to say this topic, because he didn't think that such a problem had actually reached a very serious point.
Elven Dragon Security's current regular equipment is mainly AK-74 and M1911A2 pistols, which is not a big problem.
However, in the case of heavy weapons, something went wrong.
The caliber of the M2 heavy machine gun is 12.7mm, the MG-34 is 7.92mm, the DPK heavy machine gun is 14.5mm, and the caliber of the M60 general-purpose machine gun is 7.62mm of the NATO standard.
It can be said that it is not surprising that many machine gunners sometimes take the wrong caliber of bullets, which leads to some problems.
After all, in the case of fierce fighting, not everyone will say the caliber first, and some people will directly grab the ammunition box and run to their squad.
It's still a small thing to run for nothing, but in training, it's not like I haven't tried to lose a position because of such a situation.
Now Andy, the head of logistics, brought up this problem, not because he felt trouble, but because he didn't want to have a big problem in the battle because of such a situation.
The problem of machine gun shells is relatively light, but the problem of tank shells and artillery shells is serious.
88mm,90mm,105mm,100mm,122mm,128mm,150mm,152mm…… The caliber of these shells is enough to drive a lot of people crazy.
Summoners can't go wrong in this situation, but it's not surprising that the conscripts confuse 88mm shells with 90mm shells and 85mm shells.
At the same time, the bodies of some shells of the same caliber are also different, just like the shells of the Su-152 and **L-10, which are shorter.
During the training, there was an attempt to test the accuracy of artillery in the training situation, and there was a situation where the shell could not be stuffed into the barrel.
If you change to a real shell, there is a considerable chance of exploding.
It can be said that the problem of tank artillery shells has now become a situation that must be improved.
Zhang Shixin had to face this situation and think.
After nearly half a minute, Zhang Shixin still decided to unify the caliber as much as possible.
Anyway, for him, a considerable part of the tanks also had to find a buyer.
Of course, these sold tanks will not be sold along with the engine, because there is really no such thing as oil in this world. And Zhang Shixin can't supply fuel to the other party for a long time.
Therefore, after making a decision, he said: "In the future, the machine gun will be retained as standard equipment for DPK heavy machine guns and M60 general-purpose machine guns, and other weapons will be reserved for training purposes." As for the armored forces, there will be a fairly large-scale program of refitting before the departure is determined. Replacement tanks are also used for training purposes. ”
Zhang Shixin's words shocked the people present, because what a big deal this was.
However, they underestimated that Zhang Shixin's own production capacity is no worse than that of a medium-sized heavy weapons production base when he has this thing in place.
The remaining King Tiger tanks were directly converted into VI-**-WT, while the E-75 was quite advanced and there was no need to knock it out.
In the future, the heavy tank will no longer use the Gaofushuai series on a large scale, and in the short term, the IS-3 and IS-8 heavy tanks will become standard equipment.
The rest of the IS, T-34/85 and Type 58 and the like will become assault guns or tank destroyers.
The Type 58 will become the Su-122 with 100 guns. After all, this thing itself is a T-34/85 system.
If the WZ-120/59 has some changes compared to the prototype T-54/55A, this thing can be said to be almost immutable, so it is completely normal for the Type 58 to become the Su-100.
After the su-152 thing has more isu-152, there is no need to exist, after all, the mobile surname between the two is not very good, but just the isu-152 can go to **L-10, which is enough for the ISU-152 to throw off the other party a few streets.
It's just that Zhang Shixin's decision was soon found by Andy in some places that he didn't bring up.
That is, the types of self-propelled guns and assault guns are also quite confusing.
In particular, the Lorraine-155-50/51 of the F series is quite close to the 150mm shells of the Wild Bee, and at the same time, there are also a certain number of Panther self-propelled guns that are not directly under Zhang Shixin.
The shells of these two guns are not universal, and the latter has a longer body.
Zhang Shixin could only say: "There is no better solution to this problem now, after all, the cost of self-propelled guns is correspondingly higher, and after the company's financial situation improves, I will start to solve this problem." ”
Zhang Shixin said this, not to shirk, because after he determined his self-propelled artillery system to match the weapon carrier vehicle with a mobile self-propelled artillery with a high mobile surname, supplemented by an appropriate amount of large-caliber heavy artillery, Zhang Shixin knew that this task was quite difficult to complete.
Because of such a setting, cost is a problem that cannot be ignored.
At the same time, Zhang Shixin has another thing to worry about, that is, it is difficult to transform the thing into other types of vehicles after becoming a tank destroyer.
For example, can the No. 4 tank destroyer be transformed into the No. 4 WT? The answer, of course, is no.
Therefore, Zhang Shixin can only sell some small-caliber vehicles.
Anyway, now there is a potential buyer, Zhang Shixin thinks it can be used.
After solving the logistical problem, Zhang Shixin asked Strahl and a few others to ask them to say whether the troops were suitable for those weapons that were fully equipped with tactical rails.
Straar nodded: "Although the firepower of the improved weapon has not been improved in substance, many people think that such a thing can play an unexpected role on many occasions." ”
While nodding, Zhang Shixin thought to himself: "This is a matter of course, after all, for tactical rails, what scattergun launchers, what grenade launchers, and tactical flashlights and the like are themselves used in such situations." ”
However, as for Carter, the commander of another new J.A.M. unit, he did not think that the tactical guide rail was not useful, but that a single type of automatic firepower would have the problem of excessive lethality on some occasions.
Zhang Shixin naturally knew very well that firearms such as assault rifles and automatic rifles had a very strong penetrating ability, and he had already had a preset solution, that is, to install submachine guns in some troops performing special tasks.
Of course, this submachine gun does not refer to something like the MP38, but to the MP5.
However, Zhang Shixin can't ignore a problem, that is, the initial type of MP5 submachine gun, the surname can be good, but there are several models of MP5 that cannot be equipped with auxiliary equipment such as tactical rails and silencers.
In the end, Zhang Shixin chose the most direct ordinary improvement, which is the MP5SD (silencer) submachine gun as the procurement equipment.
In fact, there are several models of MP5 that are better than this MP5SD, but Zhang Shixin is not disdainful, but there is no such model on the list.
The MP5 generally uses 9mm pistol bullets, so the penetration of this thing is weak, so it can be said that it meets the needs of many special situations.
Moreover, one thing Zhang Shixin also needs to consider is that submachine guns, as battlefield equipment, can only be used as weapons for close-range firefights more often.
Therefore, such equipment has become the only choice for the guard troops.
There were many excellent submachine guns in the fifties and sixties, but there were very few that were better known than the MP5 and had a better surname.
At the same time, the number of MP5 installations shows that the surname of this thing can be really good, otherwise there would not be dozens of countries that choose this series of submachine guns.
Of course, Zhang Shixin can also choose the domestic goods of the original world......
It's a pity......
The Type 56 submachine gun is actually the Chinese version of the AK47, which is simply an assault rifle, and it has nothing to do with the submachine gun.
Well, with AK-74, you can throw AK-47 many times, although the former is more powerful, but, in many aspects of the surname can be calculated, Zhang Shixin knows that the surname of AK-74 can be much better than the former.
Zhang Shi thought for a moment, and then said: "In a few days, a batch of submachine guns will be installed in the special forces of the guards. Of course, if your need for this weapon increases, you can propose an additional quantity. ”
After Zhang Shixin finished speaking, he dealt with a few questions one after another before he said directly: "Filei, tell me whether we should take over this business." ”
Firay sighed secretly, and could only say one sentence under the eyes of everyone: "Boss, I can only say one sentence, do you want the company to continue to develop, or maintain the status quo?" ”
"Nonsense, of course, to continue to develop."
"Well, we have to agree to this deal, and at the same time, we can't send too many people to the Hilton." Fei Lei said something that Zhang Shixin felt a little puzzled.
Zhang Shixin could only say: "Tell me in detail." ”
Filé took a deep breath, then said:
"The boss and everyone here know very well that the current situation is quite strange, the country that should have been at war is now calm, but the Hilton Empire is facing the attack of those desert bandit state alliances. It can be said that we have to be wary of whether there will be a situation in which some countries will not declare war on the alliance between the two countries. ”
"The Hilton Empire should have also asked the two alliances for support, but the two alliances have not responded at the moment, and you should all know what is going on."
"The Capani Kingdom has no spare strength to send troops now, unless, the Hilton Empire can bear all the consumption of the Kapani King's ** team, otherwise such a thing is simply unrealistic."
"As for the Gultoka Empire, the relationship between this country and the Hilton Empire has always been disputed, and even several small border wars have broken out. It can be said that it is not surprising that the Gultoka Empire was reluctant to send troops. Of course, if the Hilton Empire shows enough sincerity to impress the two countries, it is still not a big problem to send troops to support. ”
"As for why I say we can't almost get out of the nest like we did last time, it's mainly because we can't help but be prepared for some surprises. It can be said that people who have fought side by side in the past may do something that catches us off guard. For this, we had to make some preparations. ”
"At the same time, everyone here knows very well that although we gained a lot in the last battle, the consumption of troops cannot be made up for in the short term by relying on money. It can be said that, in addition to the direct troops of the boss and the Osville detachment, several other detachments did not have the capital to participate in a strong battle again. ”
"So we can take on this mission and expand our reach, but we have to control the scale."
When Fei Lei said this, he looked at Zhang Shixin and didn't say any more.
Zhang Shixin shook his head slightly, and then thought for a moment: "Fei Lei should still have a subtext that has not been said, that is, he is not very worried about those brothers and sisters staying here." It's just that at this time, they didn't know that after I was promoted to major general, the number of summons could be maintained at about 10,000.
It can be said that he can also complete the dispatch of troops alone this time.
Zhang Shixin, who decided what he should do, made a decisive decision:
"In that case, this time I will once again lead the troops to fight, and you will still be in charge of the affairs of the territory and the company. This concludes the meeting. ”
……………………………………………… Dividing Line................................................
After dinner, Zhang Shixin went to the lavishly decorated reception room of the headquarters again, and had another meeting with Grelian and a few people who were supposed to be the officials accompanying the delegation.
After a round of politeness that didn't make much sense, Grelian asked Zhang Shixin, "I don't know how many people Mr. Zhang can send, and what kind of reward we should pay?" ”
While waiting for Zhang Shixin's reply, Grelian looked at the young man whose temperament had changed a little with a pair of bright eyes.
For her, Zhang Shixin occupies more and more space in her heart.
In fact, she should have gone directly to the Gultoka Empire to communicate with Emperor William about this matter.
But under her strong admiration and persuasion, the Elven Dragon Security Company, which should not have been an alternative, has also become the target of the Hilton Empire's help.
In fact, although the Hilton Empire's army is still in a stalemate with the other side on the southeast border, the Hilton Empire has actually suffered considerable losses.
It can be said that the defense line of the southeastern border, which had always been impregnable, is now in jeopardy.
The other party didn't want to take a handful of it and leave this time, but completely wanted to destroy the Hilton Empire. This posture is even more exaggerated than the formation of the three ** teams besieging the Osville Empire.
However, after several engagements, the Hilton Empire paid an extremely heavy price before the enemy onslaught on all fronts.
It can be said that in less than half a month, the southern corps of the Hilton Empire lost almost half of it.
So, the Hilton Empire had to call for help.
At the very least, they hope that while they fight these enemies, the alliance between the two countries will not stab him in the back.
Before coming here, the alliance of the two countries still did not agree to send troops to support, but they promised not to fall into the ground, and they would also sell some supplies to the Hilton Empire.
Of course, such a price is a bit high.
The Hilton Empire was not short of supplies, but in order to stabilize the alliance between the two countries, they still purchased a considerable amount of supplies, which should be a disaster for the sake of breaking the bank.
As for the different conditions of the alliance between the two countries, Grelian knew that as long as the Hilton Empire could pay the right price, then they would get a strong reinforcement.
With the record of winning more with less, for the young man in front of him who was communicating with a few subordinates in a low voice, it was more like a commonplace.
Even she had seen Zhang Shixin fight several times in trouble, but in terms of results, he was a famous general with a brilliant record.
Zhang Shixin naturally didn't know that Grelian was secretly looking at him, and he was communicating with Fei Lei and the others about how to sell some useless weapons and equipment to each other at what price.
For Zhang Shixin, such a deal can not only return some of the funds, but also make his troops more advanced, after all, there are more newer tanks and combat vehicles, and it is difficult to improve the strength.
A few minutes later, Zhang Shixin put a list on the table, and at the same time put forward a data: "Your Royal Highness Princess, we can send 10,000 people and more than 1,000 vehicles of all kinds this time. In this way, 900,000 gold coins, to be paid in two installments. I don't know if you can accept this condition? ”
Hearing Zhang Shixin's condition, a person sitting diagonally across from Grelian was about to say something, but was stopped by Grelian's eyes.
Grelian also knew that this price was indeed quite outrageous, you must know that in the Osville Empire, Zhang Shixin only got more than 300,000 gold coins.
Although this amount of money is a lot, for the Hilton Empire, this amount of money is not a problem at all.
However, Zhang Shixin's next sentence made Grelian quite speechless:
"In addition, we still have some fairly good quality weapons and equipment that need to be transferred, I wonder if these things are worth 600,000 gold coins?"
Grelian picked up the list on the table, and the weapons and equipment listed on it were of acceptable quality, as Zhang Shixin said.
It's just that, from her intuition, these things feel that they are not worth the price of 600,000 gold coins at all.
She suddenly had the idea of pointing at Zhang Shi and scolding her, but she quickly pressed this mood, took a deep breath, and said, "Okay! We fully accept these conditions, but there is one requirement that you have to complete all the preparations for the dispatch of troops within a week. ”
"Of course, Princess Grelian, then I wish us a happy business cooperation. Elven Dragon Security will show you that it's worth the money. ”
After Zhang Shixin finished speaking, he stood up and stretched out his hand.
Graillan did not hesitate, and after holding Zhang Shixin's hand, he smiled slightly: "Of course. ”
Graeley thought to himself, "If you don't have this kind of philistine mind, maybe ...... It's even better. ”
……………………………………………… Dividing Line................................................
A week later, in a large port belonging to Zhang Shixin's territory, tanks and combat vehicles and groups of summoners were boarding the transport ship.
What awaits them is not a trip, but a bloody battle in a foreign land...... (To be continued.) )
