Jiang Cheng calculated that four months later would be March of the 40th year, and if the German army wanted to go to war, it should be about this time, according to the progress of history, it would also start a war with France in the second half of the 40th year, and his arsenal would just take the order at that time.

After thinking about it, Jiang Cheng said, "Okay, let's start preparing immediately." ”

"Boss, someone asks to see you." Chen Nan walked over and said.

Not many people know the news of Jiang Cheng's return to Germany, and most of the people who know about it are high-level Germans, Jiang Cheng asked, "Who is it?" ”

Chen Nan replied, "Rear Admiral, Dönitz. ”

Jiang Cheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Why did he come in such a hurry?" Let's go, let's take a look. ”

When Dönitz saw Jiang Cheng, he immediately opened his arms and said, "Oh!! My friend, I came as soon as I got the news of you, you know? The Führer agreed to my request, he agreed to the expansion of our submarine forces, oh, the best news I have ever heard in my life. ”

Jiang Cheng's eyes rolled and asked, "Is it that the Führer has made up his mind?" ”

Dönitz looked around, pulled Jiang Cheng to the side, and whispered, "That's right, the Führer has already made up his mind to start a war with Poland, and the time is probably in the spring of next year, and this military exercise and exhibition are to deter Britain and France and make them not get involved." ”

Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "This is impossible, Poland is the bottom line of Britain and France, unless the empire declares war with the Soviet Union, Britain and France may not be at war with the empire." ”

Dönitz shrugged and said, "That's not something we can decide, Jiang, didn't you say last time that there are new submarine blueprints and manufacturing methods?" Give it to me, I can't wait, knowing that we have less than three months to get those lads acquainted with the new submarine. ”

Jiang Cheng patted Dönitz comfortingly and said, "Don't worry, it will take time for this drawing to get to the real thing, let's continue to build the existing Type VII submarine first, I remember that this is a submarine of less than 1,000 tons, if I am asked to participate in the manufacturing and production, I can let you launch a new submarine every week." ”

Dönitz's eyes widened and asked, "Jiang, don't be kidding, this is a submarine, a very complex war machine, not your Chinese porcelain." ”

Jiang Cheng said angrily, "What? If you don't believe me, don't come to me. ”

Dönitz hurriedly said flatteringly: "Letter! Of course I believe it, I've already said hello to several submarine factories, and your Skoda can take care of part of the production of our submarines. ”

Jiang Cheng nodded, took out a pen and paper and said, "First of all, let's talk about the method of speeding up manufacturing, my method is module manufacturing, in fact, whether it is a submarine or a battleship or a pocket watch, in the final analysis, they are made of parts one by one, so all we need is these parts, and a large number of submarine parts do not require a high manufacturing process, they can be completely outsourced, and the others can be manufactured separately by various factories, such as factory A to manufacture part of the armor of the submarine, and factory B to manufacture another part, In this way, it can be greatly accelerated, and finally these parts are all shipped to our shipyard for assembly, believe me, it will greatly speed up our manufacturing... As long as you have enough funds and materials. I can say that in April 1940 you will have more than 90 submarines at your command. ”

Dönitz nodded his head like a chicken eating rice and said, "No problem, I'll arrange it immediately." ”

Jiang Cheng grabbed Dönitz and said, "Wait, don't worry, it's not bad for a while, and I need three submarines as my training ships, you can order them directly, but I want everyone on board to be my people." You know, our Chinese Navy has almost no equipment and can only use submarines. ”

Dönitz was embarrassed and said, "It's difficult, why don't you arrange half of the German soldiers and half of your people?" ”

Jiang Cheng snorted and said, "Okay, then half of my people will be on the six submarines, and all the positions must be manned." ”

Dönitz nodded and smiled, "Okay, then I'll wait for your new submarine." ”

You must know that although Germany has always asked Jiang Cheng to send students to Germany to participate in military studies, it has always kept submarines secret, of course, there are too few submarines, and Germany itself is not enough is also part of the reason.

Sending Dönitz away, Jiang Cheng asked Chen Nandao, "How long will Germany's military exercises and exhibitions last?" Who is going to participate this time? ”

Chen Nan replied, "There are many people who participate, Britain, France, the United States, Japan, the Soviet Union, Italy and Poland will come, and the time is set for December 1. ”

Jiang Cheng sighed and said, "The Soviet Union?? It seems that this time it is not only for Britain and France to see, but also for the Japanese head to be Ishihara Waner? .... I'm afraid that the Japanese don't just want to see the exercises, Ishihara Wan'er's nose is very sensitive, he probably smells the smell of gunpowder in Europe. ”

Chen Nan made a throat-slitting motion and said, "Boss, do you want it?" ”

Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "Don't act rashly, we finally have the current situation in Germany, the union of Japan and Germany is a matter of time, this is the general trend, it cannot be stopped, and we don't need to stop it, we don't really want to stand on the side of Germany." Okay, let's get ready. We have to get some orders for this exhibition, and this factory is too expensive. ”

Chen Nan smiled, "But we also have a lot of achievements, I feel that our products are not inferior to the German army." ”

Jiang Cheng snorted and said, "So, we have to sell it, the price of this good weapon is not low.... Also, what's going on with the rebels lately? ”

Chen Nan replied, "They are completely silent, the Roman plan is very powerful, all the people are looking for those who are rebelling, especially this time the rank registration, forcing everyone out, and all the people without badges are arrested first, so that those rebel organizations can't show their faces in public." ”

Jiang Cheng hummed and said, "Germany will not give them a chance in the next few years, Czechoslovakia is now being fully built by Germany, Hitler is treating this place as a big rear, as long as the people have money and food, they will not care too much about what the country is called, especially in a place like Europe that has no great unification.... As long as they don't interfere with us, don't stop helping them, in the future they will become useful pawns, get ready, I want to meet Krupp. ”

Chen Nan didn't ask why, just nodded and went to make arrangements.

――

On a meadow, there was an artillery cannon beside Jiang Cheng, and a steel plate that was erected in the distance, Krupp saw that Jiang Cheng was directing a few technicians to test the gun, and walked over with a smile and said, "My Jiang, how is it?" How powerful is my latest PAK38 Type 50 gun? ”

Jiang Cheng patted the barrel of the gun and said, "50 mm 60 times the caliber, it is indeed a great anti-tank gun, I just tried it, it can shoot through 500 mm of armor at a distance of 75 meters, and it can basically cope with all the tanks in service now, well... Except for our number five. If it is at a distance of 1,000 meters, the number four may also be difficult to deal with. ”

Krupp shrugged and said, "Our No. 5 tank is expected to have 100 mm of frontal armor, and to be honest, I don't know how to deal with such a tank." ”

Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "The armor is thicker, and our anti-tank guns can also become bigger." I'm thinking about what we will do if the enemy appears with the same tank as our five. ”

Krupp shook his head and said, "We have thought about this too, we are going to enlarge it to 75 mm, but then the gun is too heavy, more than a ton, and we don't think it's necessary." ”

Jiang Cheng knew that Krupp was talking about the PAK40 anti-tank gun. The weight of this gun is about 1.5 tons, which is about to catch up with the weight of two 50mm anti-tank guns, in fact, Krupp still has the 88 gun in his hand that can be used for anti-tank, but that one is heavier and difficult to move, and at the same time, at this time, the anti-tank role of the 88 gun has not been fully emphasized.

Jiang Cheng pointed to the iron plate opposite and said, "But don't we do military industry to take precautions?" You also know that the Führer's pace and the revival of Germany will not stop, the enemy we face will be strong, and it is the duty of our arms merchants to have a weapon ready to help the Reich defeat the enemy, isn't it? ”

Krupp heard what Jiang Cheng meant, he waved his cane and said, "Jiang, your Skoda's artillery power was indeed very strong back then, you don't want to unite with our Krupp, right?" ”

Jiang Cheng said with a smile, "I think that the design of weapons must go to the front of the real thing, design generation, development generation, equipment generation is the long-term solution, now we have successfully developed a 50mm anti-tank gun, I think we can immediately put into the development of 75mm anti-tank gun, I think it will be very soon, isn't it?" ”

Krupp touched his beard and said, "But why should I work with you?" It's not good for me, but I want to share the profits with you. ”

Jiang Cheng pointed to the hoisting swastika flag and said, "But it's good for the empire, isn't it?" Isn't it your long-standing wish that we can develop the best artillery that can provide the best artillery to the Imperial Army as quickly as possible, so that the Imperial Army can fight for the living space of the Germanic peoples as soon as possible? ”

Krupp laughed when he heard this, "Okay, okay, Jiang, I have to admit that what you said is very inflammatory, I agree, do you have any plans?" What do you position this artillery? ”

Jiang Cheng thought for a while and said, "You can easily destroy a tank like our No. 4 from a thousand meters away, and the price can't be higher than one-sixth of the No. 4 tank, otherwise it will be too expensive." And I think that there will be no future for short-barreled guns in the future, only thick and long things will have a future, so I want to design two kinds, first easy and then difficult, first to make a gun about 40 times the diameter, and finally to make about 60 times the caliber. ”

Krupp nodded and said, "I can see that the armor of the tank will become thicker and thicker in the future, this is the land version of the battleship, and the current No. 4 tank uses 75 mm and 24 times the caliber, and it is very appropriate for you to propose to make 40 times the first." Jiang, why don't you join us in the Germanic peoples. ”

Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand and said, "See?" I am yellow-skinned and black-haired, I am a Chinese, no matter where I am born or where I am, I will not change. Aren't you like that? ”

Krupp sighed and said, "Okay, then I won't talk about it, I hope we have a happy cooperation." ”

After Krupp left, Chen Nan came out and asked, "Owner, we can develop it ourselves, why do we want to pull in Krupp?" ”

Jiang Cheng sighed, "You have to remember, we will never be Germanic, not real Germans, Hitler will only support us like this if he uses it now, if he doesn't need us, the Gestapo will appear outside our company tomorrow, so no matter what we do, we will pull the Germans together, tanks, artillery, submarines and later planes, all like this." You've worked hard here, and when this war is over, I will definitely compensate you well. ”

Chen Nan bowed and said, "Chen Nan is just a gangster wandering in Berlin, usually no one looks down on me, if there is no owner, Chen Nan doesn't dare to imagine what he is doing now, Chen Nan understands, the owner is a person who does great things, Chen Nan only hopes to be the help of the owner, and when I return to China in the future, I can also say to my children, there is a piece of his father's hard work." ”

Jiang Cheng's nose was sour, and he said hehe, "Our generation can only snatch China out of the mouths of foreign powers, and it is up to future generations to really bring China back to the Han and Tang dynasties.... Okay, I'll go first, get ready for military exercises and exhibitions, don't mess up. ”

Chen Nan snorted and watched Jiang Cheng leave the room.

-- Ganzhou Youth Army Barracks

"Brother Gu Quan, Brother Gu Quan, I knew you would come, I was so happy to see you." A gust of wind rushed in, and seeing a foot of yellow mud ******, Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Jianfeng, are you going to the construction site again?" ”

He said, "Do you know where I can sit in the office, or I have a bottom in my heart on the front line, you probably don't know it abroad, we are about to counterattack." ”

Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "I already know, does our youth army have a mission?" ”

smiled and said, "Of course, our offensive direction is Nanchang, and this time we must be ashamed." ”

Jiang Cheng asked, "You're very happy." It seems that you have great hopes for this counteroffensive. ”

Pulled Jiang Cheng to the map and said, "You see, we launched an attack at the same time in several major theaters, and the main force of the Japanese army is still in the northeast, so at worst, we can recover a few big cities." ”

Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "I hope so, this time I brought you something good, I'll be here soon, you wait." ”

As he was talking, he heard a cheer outside, and ****** looked down from the upper floor and was surprised to see three cannons being pulled by a truck to the front of the command department. The soldiers kept cheering around the artillery, you must know that in the current national army, such a large artillery is very rare.
