Song Zhewu looked at everyone, showed a little smile and asked, "You have all seen the iron crossbow bazooka, right?" ”

Although the bazooka is a high-level secret, these high-ranking officers not only know it, but they have also seen it, and Song Zhewu nodded when he asked.

"The rocket launcher we developed ourselves is the world's first individual weapon against tanks, and now only our Fourth Route Army has it in the world, which is to be kept absolutely secret. It is a good thing to fight tanks, with a frontal armor penetration thickness of 60mm at a range of 100 meters, and now a large number of tanks attached to the Soviet army are papier-mâché in front of the crossbow, and they will be broken when poked. ”

Zhang Yafei, who had long been "salivating" for the iron crossbow, nodded and echoed with a flattering smile: "The commander is right, this bazooka is indeed a good thing, we have all seen it, Lao Pang and I have each fired two shots, the power is not to be said, Lao Pang also said that this iron crossbow can not only hit tanks, but also hit the enemy's machine gun fire points." With it, I am no longer afraid of any Soviet tanks. Commander, this time you will give us the iron crossbow to the 38th Army, and let Lao Maozi taste the power of the iron crossbow first. ”

Although Zhang Yafei is not from the Northeast, the last time he went to Manchuria to fight, the Northeast people he came into contact with called the Soviet Army are all called the Soviet Army, and now Zhang Yafei is also an old man with an open mouth and an old man with a closed mouth.

Song Zhewu ignored Zhang Yafei and continued his topic.

"The only shortcoming of the iron crossbow is that its range is still a little close, and the effective range is only 110 meters now, but Zhou Liqun and they are researching and improving. It has the advantage of being mobile and flexible, and can be used with anti-aircraft guns. This time, the Soviets were equipped with a large number of tanks, and with our crossbows, these tanks could no longer be rampant. However, the number was small, only 1,000 were produced, 300 were assigned to the 38th Army, and 100 were assigned to the Mountain Division and the Eastern Front. ”

Although there are only 300 bodies, Zhang Yafei is still very happy.

"Thank you, Commander, you can see, with this bazooka, not a single tank of Lao Maozi can run."

Song Zhewu nodded, looked at Zhang Yafei and said, "I can tell you, these bazookas are numbered, and none of them are allowed to be lost in battle, let alone obtained by the Soviet army." ”

Zhang Yafei, who was in an extremely happy mood, hurriedly agreed.

"Commander Wu, can you introduce the readiness of your air force."

The air force of the Fourth Route Army is still very weak, and even now it is completely negligible in terms of quantity and quality compared with the air force deployed by the Soviet Army on the border of North Mongolia. However, because of his experience in Manchuria last time, Song Zhewu still had great hopes for his air force.

If there is no threat from Soviet aircraft, his modified DH-10, now the official model is QJ-2, is still very lethal to the infantry, as for whether it can still create a miracle like Dauri, it depends on the situation on the battlefield.

Wu Jin, who had not spoken, knew that Song Zhewu attached great importance to the Air Force, and he knew in his heart that Song Zhewu would definitely not forget his Air Force during the Northern Mongolian Battle, and seeing that Song Zhewu asked him by name to introduce the situation of the Air Force, Wu Jin, who had been prepared, cleared his throat and began to introduce the situation of the Air Force.

“…… The Air Force Corps currently has a squadron of Newburg-28; A modified attack aircraft QJ-2 of a wing with three full brigades; A brigade of DH-10 bombers. In addition, there are the Z-2 reconnaissance aircraft of our own development, which we have just received, with a total of 4 units, as well as one Junkers F-13. ”

The Newburgh-28 was given by Zhang Xueliang, and the Strike QJ-2 was modified from the DH-10. The Junkers-13 was captured by the Jin Sui Army during the occupation of Taiyuan, and this plane was a German-made four-seater transport plane, and it was also Yan Xishan's special plane, and now it is a special plane for personnel of the Fourth Route Army to travel to and from Northern Mongolia, and Tao Rong took this plane to inspect Northern Mongolia.

The reconnaissance aircraft Z-2 was newly developed by the Aviation Research Institute, and as a reconnaissance aircraft, the technical requirements for it are not high, as long as it has flexibility, high speed, and low altitude. Therefore, this reconnaissance machine was quickly finalized and produced. It's just that the aircraft factory has to prepare a new fighter production line that is being commissioned, and there are only two of them produced in Z-February. According to the opinions of Mike and Gao Zhihang, there should be at least one brigade of reconnaissance planes.

Z-2 is installed with the engine of the imported German Rheinland company, because the weight of the aircraft is very light, and it is an all-metal skin, with the rectification effect of the metal skin, the aerodynamic surname of the aircraft is excellent, the maximum speed reaches 265km/h, and the speed of many fighters at this stage is not as fast as it, but the number is too small, and now only four are produced.

When it comes to all-metal skin, we can't fail to mention Wang Zhu, who is very interested in aerodynamics, which is also an emerging discipline in the world, and has also written works such as "Equivalent Miscellaneous Resistance Coefficients". Therefore, now they have adopted a lot of new technologies in the design of the alloy aluminum appearance of their own new aircraft, and the aerodynamic layout is very good.

Based on his own research, Wang Zhu also suggested adding a small wheel to the rear of the aircraft. Prior to this, airplanes in various countries around the world had only a pair of nose wheels, which were mounted on the balance point of the aircraft, which was difficult for larger aircraft. Now with the addition of this small wheel, it is very convenient for the aircraft to be towed on the ground.

Due to the fact that there were engineers and technicians from Curtis to assist in the expansion of the aircraft factory in Wusu, this small ferry was transmitted back to the United States by them, and now this small ferry has been called the king help wheel in the international community, and it has been widely adopted.

In the past, Ba Yuzao also proposed to jointly develop an aircraft with Curtis, but Curtis has not been very enthusiastic, and now he has begun to take the initiative to ask for a joint development of an aircraft with the Aviation Research Institute in Taiyuan. This plan has just been approved by Song Zhewu, and from next year, the two companies will start joint research and development in Taiyuan.

Wu Jin continued: "We have built three permanent airports in North and South Mongolia, respectively in Baotou in South Mongolia and Manlai and Kulun in North Mongolia. Among them, Baotou and Manlai airports are the largest, both with four runways, which can accommodate more than 200 aircraft at the same time. In addition, 48 field airfields have been built in the Taiyuan Administration and in the north and south of Mongolia, and the easternmost field airfield was completed in the rear banner of the left wing of Horqin last month in accordance with the instructions of the commander. ”

Two of the three large permanent airfields, the reason why Baotou and Manlai were chosen is because the distance between these two airports closest to the Soviet army is also very far, Manlai is more than 500 kilometers away from the Vidrino airport south of Lake Baikal and the Trans-Siberian Railway, and more than 700 kilometers away from Baotou.

Now, Mike and his troops are training in North Mongolia, trying to master the new equipment as soon as possible. Gao Zhihang is leading some QJ-2s equipped with radio navigation devices to train night flights in Horqin. ”
