Before leaving, Albert suddenly thought of a very important question, and he grabbed Kalashnikov and asked eagerly, "By the way, is the chain of the PKM machine gun you designed a loose chain or a non-loose chain?" ”

During World War II, most of the machine guns of the U.S. military were non-loose chains, but due to the unstable supply of ammunition, the M60 machine guns during the Vietnam War had been switched to metal M13 loose chains.

However, the Soviet Union and other Warsaw Pact countries and some Western countries prefer non-dispersible bullet chains. Because these chains can be reused, they are less expensive and can quickly and manually load loose bullets into the chains to continue firing when the loaded chains are empty. But there is another important point

"Of course, it's an unbreakable bullet chain, you don't need to clean up the battlefield after the fight, and you can save costs, what's wrong? Isn't that wrong? "Kalashnikov is really the thinking of the Soviet Union, and the design ideas are exactly the same as the ideas of the Soviet designers in history.

Albert did not support his idea, and gave his own suggestion, "I suggest you change it to a loose chain." ”

Although the PKM general-purpose machine gun is superior to the MAG general-purpose machine gun in terms of weight, it loses to the MAG in terms of overall performance, and one of the reasons is that it cannot be scattered. Albert patiently explained to Kalashnikov, "When the two sides are fighting, the machine gun position must be transferred immediately once it is exposed, and the PKM general machine gun has to sort out the empty bullet chain, and it is easy to get entangled in a panic situation, not to mention the impact on the loading, but also delays the precious transfer time." ”

The loose cartridge chain used by the MAG general-purpose machine gun can easily be quickly transferred, so the PKM machine gun was unfortunately defeated by the MAG general-purpose machine gun in the end, but this does not mean that it is a bad firearm, on the contrary, from the advent of this gun to the end of the Cold War, it is still active in various major theaters around the world, even after more than 50 years, it is still not old, and there is no one to come.

Although Kalashnikov was unwilling to disobey Albert's wishes, he had to agree, but Albert could already see his displeasure from his face, so he had to think of a compromise that would not discourage the enthusiasm of the excellent designer, and "Let's do it, let's design two bullet chains, loose and non-scatterable, and then conduct battlefield simulation training to see which one is better, so it's okay, right?" ”

"Battlefield simulation training?" The fresh words in Albert's mouth piqued Kalashnikov's interest: "Does it feel like a funny thing, simulating a war?" It's going to cost a lot of manpower and material resources. ”

"It's not a direct simulation of a war, but the use of empty cartridges to simulate the battlefield environment, to see if this gun will have the problem I said in the case of war, if I win, use a loose bullet chain structure, if I lose, I don't have a problem with what you do in the future." In fact, Albert also wants to know what are the disadvantages of using loose elastic chains in reality. Although the conclusions that were talked about on TV in the previous life were the lessons of blood and tears that the US military exchanged for the M60 machine gun in the jungles of Vietnam.

"Yes, I accept your suggestion, Your Highness Albert." Kalashnikov is also a good person, and he still has a job to do at this time, so he euphemistically ordered the expulsion, "Your Highness Albert, I still have some unfinished designs on hand, do you think the next thing will wait until I finish it?" ”

"Okay, you're busy, I'll just take a look and give some advice." Albert also agreed to leave with great interest.

Just as Albert was about to walk out of NORINCO, he unexpectedly met Barlow. That guy will always look like a well-mannered Sven scum, but the East German events a while ago are thanks to his actions.

"Boss, why are you here?" Barlow looked slightly surprised when he saw Albert, and he also had a hint of flattering flattery in calling Albert the boss instead of the crown prince.

"It's nothing, it's just to see what new designs my company has come up with." Albert also replied honestly, and he also asked casually, "Why, why don't you take care of the Belgian Strategic Resources Cooperation Company, why do you come here?" ”

Baloyang raised the document in his hand, and said with some pride, "I'm going to come to finalize a contract with NORINCO, boss, you probably haven't paid attention to the company's information for a long time." Some time ago, our company purchased a batch of Wrangler Jeeps and transported them to the branch base of the Belgian Strategic Resources Cooperation Company in the Congo to be responsible for going out on a mission. Today it is to purchase the PKMB vehicle-mounted general-purpose machine gun of NORINCO. ”

In the troubled areas of the Middle East, Toyota's machine guns were a beautiful scenery of warfare, and both PMCs and private military contractors and rebels used this combination. Of course, at this time, Jeep was in power, so it was natural to use this car with excellent off-road performance.

But Albert had another idea in mind: to equip the Belgian Strategic Resources Cooperation with helicopter gunships or old piston fighters, such as the Mustang. It's cool to use them to bully the militants in Africa who have no air defense.

"I see." Albert suddenly realized, and then he asked, "It's time to buy a general-purpose machine gun, isn't the situation in Congo not good recently?" ”

"Well, it's not good." Barlow muttered, "From the information fed back by the security personnel over there, the situation in southern Congo has begun to be turbulent, and there are constant riots, so the rich and powerful white people over there will hire our company's security personnel as bodyguards, and this income is becoming more and more considerable. ”

Listening to Barlow's words, Albert quickly thought of the South Africa that was about to move, it seems that the Boer bastards finally attacked the Congo? Where will it be next, my Rwandan colony? Then Albert naturally remembered the Rwandan genocide.

"Didn't the Crowbo family use their means to control the black poor? I sent them a license to kill. Albert frowned, and he motioned for Barlow not to rush to answer himself, and the two of them walked to a remote corner to continue their discussion.

Barlow shook his head helplessly, "No matter how powerful the mafia is, it has only been a year since they arrived in Congo." There are still many local forces that cannot penetrate into it. And it is precisely because of the rapid growth that a group of armed elements instigated by foreign forces have united to resist the Krobbo family. ”

If it is really a strong dragon that cannot suppress the head snake, Albert thought to himself, "What about the Congolese government? The Governor must not be indifferent to the death of the Negroes, right? ”

Barlow spread his hands and said in a tone imitating the Governor, "The Governor said I'm sorry we don't have the ability to manage it that widely. ”

The reaction of the Congolese governor was also expected by Albert, the colonial government is that kind of urine, once it grows bigger, there is an ambition to become a country independent from the colony, and it is not clear that there is the shadow of the Congolese governor behind these militants, but the Congolese government has forgotten one thing, that is, this colony is Albert's forbidden territory, and no one is allowed to touch it.

So he replied in a categorical tone, "Then you tell Old Jack then, no matter what method he uses, I must use the bloodiest means to suppress the militants who dare to cut off the alleged king. Learn from other Mexican drug lords and send them to their relatives in large quantities. Look at the KGB of the Soviet Union, and directly chop up their families and send them back to the Islamist forces that dare to rebel. He wants a gun, I give a gun, he wants a gun, I give a gun. In short, I don't want my agent to be a Chang Kaishen who only knows how to send equipment to others, you know? ”

"Remember, I just want to know the end result, and I'm not at all interested in how bloody the process is. Since the blacks want to rebel with guns, then I can also learn from Leopold II's brutal methods and chop off the hands of these people who dare to rebel. ”
