Chapter 193: Tank Order

- Modern

In a restaurant, Yu Na used a tong to flip the mutton on the baking sheet, looked at Jiang Cheng opposite and asked, "What's wrong?" Don't have much of an appetite today? ”

Jiang Cheng looked at Zi Feng, who seemed to have saliva on the side, rubbed his forehead and said, "No, it's just why do you want to bring her." ”

Yu Na tilted her head and said, "When you are not there, but Zifeng accompanied me, isn't it normal to treat her now, don't you keep a bitter face, come on, come on, smile quickly." ”

Jiang Cheng smiled helplessly, and was about to clip a piece of freshly roasted mutton, but found that a pair of chopsticks had appeared on the body of the mutton without knowing when.

"The hand is fast, the hand is slow, whoever catches it is who's." Zifeng muttered, dipping the large piece of mutton in the seasoning and putting it in his mouth. "Sister Nana, what you make is delicious."

"That's Nana baked it for me!!" Jiang Cheng shouted angrily.

"Alright, alright, there's a lot more, let's eat slowly." Yu Na couldn't help but feel amused when she looked at Jiang Cheng and Zi Feng arguing.

After they were full of wine and food, the three of them returned to the residence, Jiang Cheng watched Zifeng follow him into the door, and hurriedly grabbed her and asked, "Hey, hey, what are you doing?" This is my house, and yours is across the street. ”

Zi Feng pulled his clothes, and the purple bra appeared in front of Jiang Cheng's eyes, and Jiang Cheng hurriedly turned his head.

"You sniff, you sniff, the smell of barbecue, I'm going to take a bath with Sister Nana, oh, do you want to do anything bad, think I'm disturbing you, don't worry, I'll leave later." Saying that, Zi Feng looked at Jiang Cheng with an evil expression.

"Who taught you this, and also, put on your clothes, damn it. I went to the study. Jiang Cheng reluctantly stopped paying attention to Zifeng and returned to his study.

"Gallagher, I'm a little skeptical that this purple wind will install something in my room, you can find a way to help me solve it." Jiang Cheng, who was in the study, said uneasily.

Gallagher blinked and said, "Simple, I'll just design a device that can check out all the electronic devices." But you can call with confidence, the software I designed last time can already be encrypted, and besides, they also know about your arms purchase, what are you afraid of. ”

Jiang Cheng looked at the door and said, "I always feel that there are eyes around me, it's just that, it shouldn't be anything." I'll give her a call first. ”

Before Jiang Cheng could call, a phone call came first. Jiang Cheng took a look. But it's Ying Tianlin, who is recuperating from his injuries.

"I said Tianlin, you don't care about your injuries, what are you looking for me?" Jiang Cheng asked curiously.

"Damn, something happened, the Yankees killed bin Laden." Ying Tianlin's voice was a little low, and he should not have fully recovered.

"Who? Bin laden??? Jiang Cheng blinked, he couldn't believe that this legendary figure of terrorism had died like this.

"Yes. It should be that the news will be broadcast soon, and this time the Yankees have earned a lot of face. Ying Tianlin's words were full of sourness. This is really an American who is happy, and he is not happy.

Although Jiang Cheng was shocked by this news, what does this have to do with him? I couldn't help but say strangely, "Does this matter have anything to do with me?" ”

Ying Tianlin said hehehe, "Originally, it didn't matter, but I received news that after the Yankees killed bin Laden, they were about to withdraw their troops in Iraq." When the Yankees were there, they were still strictly controlled, and when they left, a lot of things would come out, so I didn't come to ask in advance. If there is anything you want, heavy artillery, missiles, tanks, I can get it if you eat. ”

Jiang Cheng touched his head, this Ying Tianlin is really afraid that the world will not be chaotic. Hurriedly said, "Forget about tanks and missiles, if there are heavy artillery, I want some, the key is the weight, the weight must be light." ”

"Brother, you're not honest again, didn't you tell you to have a good rest?" At this time, a female voice came from the phone, and Jiang Cheng knew that it was Kou Kokou when he heard it.

"Hehe, I'm not idle. You don't want this smile, I'm a little scared, I"

"Hehe, it's Brother Cheng, I'm Koukou." The owner of the phone has been replaced by Coco.

Jiang Cheng said embarrassedly, "How is your brother?" ”

Kou Ko glanced at Ying Tianlin, who had fainted, and said, "It's okay, I gave him a hand knife, does Brother Cheng have any business to take care of?" ”

Jiang Cheng hurriedly continued: "Just now your brother wanted to sell me Iraqi arms, I just want some artillery, which should be lighter in weight and in better condition." ”

Kou Ko couldn't help but reproach and said, "Brother is selling rags again, I said that this will affect our credibility, Brother Cheng, don't listen to him, the military munitions maintenance in Iraq is a mess, or I'll find it for you, what else do you want besides artillery?" ”

Jiang Cheng thought for a while and said, "I want a tank, it should be lightweight, preferably a model before World War II." ”

After five seconds of silence.

Jiang Cheng said slowly, "Coco, are you still there?" ”

Coco exclaimed, "Before World War II? Why don't you want to fight? Tank Mark do you want it? Are you going to buy arms or open a museum? What can a tank like that do? Arable land? ”

Jiang Cheng hurriedly said, "No, I really have a special situation, my side of the road is very poor, and the weight of modern tanks is too high, I can't stand it." ”

Kou Ko immediately said, "Then use armored vehicles, besides, there are light ones, didn't you take a few last time?" ”

Jiang Cheng scratched his head and continued to explain, "Those are not suitable, it is better not to have any modern telecommunications equipment, the older the better, those computer systems can't be had." It's broken, and I don't have anywhere to fix it. ”

Kou Ko looked at the unconscious Ying Tianlin, thought about the plane Jiang Cheng bought last time, shook her head helplessly and said, "Then you say the request yourself, I'll help you find a way, you don't want me to help you open a tank factory again." ”

Jiang Cheng slapped his thigh and said, "It's okay." ”

The corners of Coco's mouth moved a few times, and she made up her mind that she must open Jiang Cheng's head when she had a chance to see what was in Jiang Cheng's head.

Jiang Cheng touched his chin and said, "Request, 37 or 50 guns of artillery are enough, 50MM armor is enough, the speed is not too fast, and the weight is best around 10 tons." ”

"Okay, you don't say any more." Holding her forehead, she said, "I see." You want a tank like the German No. 3 of World War II. ”

Jiang Cheng hurriedly said, "Yes, that kind of data will do, but the weight should be reduced a little more, and the materials should be optimized, but don't add any modern instruments, it must be original." Of course, it would be great if you wrote German on it. ”

Coco took a breath and asked, "Do you really want this?" Such a tank is now an iron coffin. ”

Jiang Cheng said firmly: "That's what I want." ”

In her heart, she would rather Jiang Cheng want the American M1A2 than to engage in such a strange tank, and she couldn't have any electronic information equipment, so she said helplessly, "I'll do my best." ”

Jiang Cheng put down the phone and thought about it in his heart. In fact, the weight limit of the tank is often not in the road, but in the bridge, the tank is originally a field weapon, and the road almost doesn't matter, but the bridge can't stand it. You can't let the tank fly.

Most of the bridges in the Republic of China period are ancient bridges that have been inherited from the Ming and Qing dynasties, after all, there were no trucks at that time, and such bridges were enough to use, and the load of most of the bridges was less than ten tons. You know, even in Germany at that time, the load of most highway bridges was only about 24 tons.

Most of the modern main battle tanks are more than 50 tons, like the American M1A2 is more than 60 tons. When such a tank goes to the bridge of the Republic of China, it basically only sinks to the bottom of the river.

Of course. Modern bridges are not all main battle tanks that can bear such weight, so there are tank bridge-erecting vehicles that are used together.

About an hour later, just when Jiang Cheng was listening to the laughter of Yu Na and Zifeng in the bathroom, Coco's phone call came again.

"Coco, what's wrong? What's the result? Jiang Cheng hurriedly walked out of the room and came to the courtyard and whispered.

"Hmph, I'll work with you." Probably there is good news. Coco's accent is deliberately Cantonese. "I really can't find one of the active tanks that meets your requirements, and you're probably going to open another tank factory again."

Jiang Cheng scratched his head and said, "Customization is customization, you can tell me about the data first." ”

"I consulted with a few of my engineers and decided to use the German No. 3 tank as a template and use new materials to strengthen the defense and reduce the weight. If you have any special requirements, hurry up and say. ”

Jiang Cheng hurriedly said, "There are many mountains and hills over there, you join in and consider, is this custom expensive?" ”

Coco said in a lucky tone of your kid, "Because it is a very old process, modern production is very simple, it will not be very expensive, if you want to make it, you have to buy off the Ukrainian officials, do you have a way?" ”

Jiang Cheng immediately said, "I'll give you two tons of gold, you can go and kill them, but to make a tank, you can't be like an airplane without weapons." I can't fit that tank gun. ”

"You can rest assured that the tanks are all loaded, and when the weapons are exported, anyway, the tanks of that era don't even have to pay royalties now, and two tons of gold are enough to feed those officials." Anyway, they won't care about such outdated weapons, how many are you going to want, I can make a production plan. ”

Jiang Cheng thought for a while and said, "Prepare 100 for me first, by the way, I also need a matching command vehicle, a minesweeper, a bridge building vehicle or something." ”

Coco thought for a moment and said, "A hundred cars are enough to start a production line, okay, I'll figure it out, I'll let you know when there's news, do you want anything else?" ”

"That's enough, let's do it first." Jiang Cheng thought about it and felt that he would talk about it when the time came, so he said.

"By the way, since you like antique weapons so much, I have an old tank here, are you interested, the original, I'll charge you five million yuan." Coco said suddenly.

"What tank?" Jiang Cheng asked with some curiosity.

"The earliest centurion was one of the six that was sent to the battlefield that year, although it is a little old, but I can use it if I refurbish it for you. It's a good idea to go straight into the museum, but the last thing we hate is waste. Coco said jokingly.

Centurion? Jiang Cheng thought that this tank was only made in 1945, its appearance design and weapon concept are extremely advanced, and it has been in service in the Israeli army until the 21st century.

After thinking about it, Jiang Cheng said, "Okay, I want it, let's transport it to Black Iron Island together." ”

-- Tokyo Cabinet Meeting of the Republic of China Time and Space

Everyone at the conference table looked at the information in front of them, but they didn't speak, some sighed, and some couldn't believe it.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the accurate news from our agents inside China, the mouth of the Yellow River Garden was indeed dug up by Jiang Intermediary himself, what a vicious scheme." Konoe Fumiro said as he patted the table.

"Retaliation, we must retaliate, take Wuhan and capture Jiang Intermediary alive." Sugiyama shouted loudly.

"Jiang is willing to dig up the Yellow River and block the imperial army, I don't think he will surrender, let's fight." Hirota Hongyi also said firmly.

Konoe Fumiro nodded and said, "Okay, then let's prepare for the Battle of Wuhan, I hope that the Ministry of Finance will make financial preparations, and I will go to see His Majesty the Emperor." ”

Fumiro Konoe came to the palace and told Hirohito about the decision at the meeting, Hirohito couldn't help frowning, and said with a little blame, "When the war just started, you all said that you could end the war quickly, but what happened?" The two battles of Xuzhou were the result of such a tiger, don't you have any ideas? ”

Konoe Fumiro heard the dissatisfaction in Hirohito's tone, and quickly lowered his head and said, "We believe that this is mainly the reason why the northern and southern armies cannot fight together. ”

"Nonsense!!" Hirohito stood up suddenly, "Don't always blame the soldiers who fought bloody battles on the front line, what about yourselves?" What kind of declaration did Hirota make? What is no longer an opponent of the Nationalist Government, you say this, how can Chiang surrender? What is the use of a person without a brain in the cabinet? ”

Konoe heard that his head was full of beads of sweat, this was talking about Hirota Hiroki, but in fact, he was insinuating about him.

Hirohito continued, "And the land minister, isn't it responsible that the war has not ended for so long? ”

The guard hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is right. We'll be sure to reflect on it. ”

Hirohito nodded and said, "Besides, what you just said makes sense, let's discuss who will preside over the battle of Wuhan." ”

A few days later, the Japanese cabinet was reorganized, with Hirota Hiroki and Sugiyama resigning, and Seishiro Itagaki who had made great achievements in China was reappointed Minister of War.

- Beiping

Koiso Kunichi shook hands at the airfield at Showachi Temple, representing the beginning of preparations for coordinated operations by Japanese forces in North and Central China.

Zhongxi Gong looked at the two, his heart was full of worry, if the two sides attacked together, he didn't know if China could stop it.

"General Terauchi, it's a pity to meet Xuzhou, has General Xiangyue already gone to Tokyo?" Kuniaki Koiso asked first.

Koiso Kuniaki was just promoted to general last year, and Terauchi Shouichi has been a general for three years and is a count, so Koiso Kuniaki spoke first in order to show respect.

"Hmph, that guy who relied on the old and sold the old, if it weren't for him, the second Battle of Xuzhou would not have been like this. Forget it, let's discuss the details of the battle of Wuhan. Shouichi Terauchi said disdainfully.

"Your Majesty has just approved a special fund of 2.5 billion yen, and if Wuhan loses, we will have no face to return to Tokyo, and for the commander of the Battle of Wuhan, you see" Kuniaki Koiso asked.

Shouichi Terauchi touched his beard and said, "It's up to you to command." (To be continued.) )
