At the end of February 1939, the first armored car that Zhang Yunfei was looking forward to was finally manufactured, and Zhang Yunfei, who had been notified, came to the armored vehicle factory early and looked around the armored car sprayed with camouflage color several times.

This armored vehicle is actually an armored personnel carrier, but in this era of lack of anti-tank weapons, it can be used as an infantry fighting vehicle.

This armored car has a total combat weight of 16 tons, armor thickness of 10 to 16 mm, a length of 7 meters, a width of 2.6 meters, a height of 2.3 meters, a crew of 3 people, a crew of 10 people, a maximum climbing gradient of 30 degrees, and a maximum roll driving gradient of 25 degrees. The maximum off-road speed is 50 kilometers per hour, and the maximum range is 300 kilometers. The maximum speed of the highway is 65 kilometers per hour, and the maximum distance is 400 kilometers. It is possible to cross trenches 2 meters wide and obstacles 0.8 meters high.

Armored personnel carriers, in addition to infantry, can also transport supplies or supplies, and can also be equipped to infantry squads.

Equipped with a 300 horsepower diesel engine, it has strong power, a 30 mm cannon on the roof, and 300 rounds of ammunition, which can provide good fire support on the battlefield.

Looking at the domineering and tall appearance of the armored car, Zhang Yunfei was also slightly excited in his heart, and when he entered the spacious and comfortable cab, Zhang Yunfei found that there were still more instruments and meters in the cab, and a walkie-talkie was also installed.

Zhang Yunfei picked up the walkie-talkie and looked at it, although this walkie-talkie is still relatively bulky, it can basically meet the requirements of the communication between the vehicles.

After watching the cab for a long time, Zhang Yunfei reluctantly came to the troop carrier, and the wide troop carrier sat on ten soldiers, and it was not crowded at all, and the two sides of the troop carrier also opened shooting holes, and the soldiers could hide in the troop carrier compartment and shoot through the shooting holes.

Seeing Zhang Yunfei get out of the car with satisfaction, the factory leaders and a large number of technicians around him let out a long sigh, this armored car, which consumed a lot of manpower and material resources and was repeatedly postponed in the delivery node, seemed to be very satisfactory to the division commander.

After looking at the armored car and learning more about the surnames in all aspects, Zhang Yunfei praised everyone, and the factory leaders and technicians who heard the praise felt that the hard work in the past few months had not been in vain, and he was very happy in his heart, and his face was also beaming.

Seeing that everyone was in a good mood, Zhang Yunfei also smiled and said: "It seems that everyone is very confident in this armored car, so let's test it next and see how well this armored car performs." ”

"Okay, I won't let the chief down." The director of the armored vehicle hurriedly said confidently.

"Okay, let's start testing."

As soon as Zhang Yunfei's words were finished, the three soldiers quickly got into the cab, and in the expectant eyes of everyone, the armored car was immediately started, let out a roar, and slowly drove out of the factory gate to the training ground of the armored infantry brigade.

An hour later, everyone arrived at the armored infantry brigade one after another, and Wu Youqing, the commander of the armored infantry brigade who got the news, lined up at the gate of the training ground with all the officers and men to greet them.

Seeing the mighty armored car in front of him driving towards this side at high speed, Wu Youqing was also extremely excited in his heart, now it's okay, he finally has his own armored car.

After a while, everyone arrived at the training ground, Wu Youqing hurriedly walked forward quickly, opened the door of the off-road vehicle that Zhang Yunfei was riding, Zhang Yunfei got out of the car, Wu Youqing said happily: "Division commander, we finally have our own armored car, great." ”

Seeing Wu Youqing, who was a little incoherent with joy, Zhang Yunfei said: "Youqing, congratulations today, I sent you the first armored car, don't let me down in the future." ”

Wu Youqing stood up in front of Zhang Yunfei and said loudly: "Please rest assured, we will not disappoint the expectations of the teacher, train hard, and beat the little devils fiercely." ”

"Okay, good faith." Zhang Yunfei also said happily.

After everyone got out of the car, the real test began, first of all, the test of the mobile surname, the armored car galloped along the curved road, kicking up a large cloud of dust, and none of the obstacles set up on the road were touched, showing the vehicle's good maneuverability and driving surname.

After testing the maneuver, he began to test his ability to jump over obstacles, only to see the armored vehicle slowly moving towards a two-meter-long trench in front.

Seeing that there was a two-meter-wide trench in front of him, and then thinking of an armored vehicle weighing more than a dozen tons, if he really fell into the trench, it would be a big problem.

Only Zhang Yunfei seemed full of confidence and was very calm, the two armored vehicles were seven meters long, the center of gravity was in the middle, and the center was three meters away from the forefront of the vehicle, and they could definitely cross the trench two widths in front.

Sure enough, the armored car lightly crossed the trench two meters in front, and when everyone saw this, they immediately cheered, and Wu Youqing raised his fist and waved it vigorously in the air, looking extremely excited.

The armored vehicle crossed this trench and continued to drive forward, not far in front of which was a concrete step about 0.8 meters high, which the armored vehicle needed to cross.

The armored car in front of the steps seemed to encounter a little resistance, but the driver obviously increased the horsepower, the armored car let out a roar, a puff of black smoke came out, the front of the car trembled and raised, slowly crossed the cement steps, saw the armored car such an excellent performance, everyone immediately thundered with joy.

After crossing this step, the armored car immediately turned around and drove towards the shooting range, and everyone took out their binoculars and looked at the shooting range in the distance.

As soon as the armored vehicle drove to the shooting range, the 30-millimeter chain cannon on the roof of the vehicle began to fire, and the shells exploded the distant targets to shreds.

The rate of fire of fifty or sixty rounds per minute is very powerful, and even targets that are three or four thousand meters away have been successfully hit.

My God, where is this armored car, much stronger than the little devil's tank, the little devil's tank has a main gun of 37 mm, and the rate of fire is only two or three rounds per minute, this armored car is much more fierce than the little devil's tank.

If his armored brigade is equipped with dozens or hundreds of such armored vehicles in the future, how good it would be, Wu Youqing, who thought about it here, said happily to Zhang Yunfei: "Division commander, if our armored brigade can be equipped with dozens or hundreds of such armored vehicles in the future, then I can guarantee that a division of little devils will be swept on the battlefield." ”

"Only a few dozen or hundred? I said Brigade Commander Wu, you are too easy to be satisfied, and I am ready to equip your brigade with two or three hundred armored personnel carriers. Zhang Yunfei threw a bombshell.

My obedient, two or three hundred, Wu Youqing didn't come back to his senses after a long time......
