The "water tank" is also the tank, and the tank was funded by the British Admiral Winston Churchill, so the name also uses the "water tank" closely related to the navy. As for the Chinese translation of the name "tank", it is the transliteration of "water tank".

On September 15, 1916, the day Qin Zhiyuan met Foch, the British used tanks for the first time in the Battle of the Somme. Although only 18 of the 48 tanks were involved in the battle due to malfunctions, great progress was still made on the battlefield.

Before the tanks were put into battle, the Battle of the Somme had already entered a stalemate. Although the Anglo-French forces continued to attack, because of the stubborn resistance of the Germans, the progress of the Anglo-French forces was extremely slow, and they could only advance one or two hundred meters per day and night, and the price paid was extremely disproportionate to the progress of the war.

After the tanks were put into the war, the Germans were helpless against this behemoth, they had no defensive weapons against the tanks, they could only watch the tanks crush the barbed wire, cross the trenches, and then the entire German army in the trenches would raise their hands and surrender.

"The British are in a hurry, and tanks are weapons that should not be used like this." Qin Zhiyuan looked at the documents in his hand, shook his head and sighed.

"Why? Tell us what you think. For Qin Zhiyuan's opinion, Foch attaches great importance to it, perhaps in Foch's subconscious, Foch hopes that Qin Zhiyuan can bring him more surprises.

"The greatest role of the tank is to assault, to break through the enemy's defenses, to lead the infantry to divide and surround the enemy, and then annihilate the enemy. The British tank was not practical enough, the assault capability was insufficient, its speed was only 3.2 kilometers per hour, and the number was too small, there were too many breakdowns, and the cruising range was not enough, so that the tank's assault capability could not be fully utilized, but could only be used in skirmishes, and the results achieved were extremely limited. On the contrary, it also exposed this weapon of war, so that the Germans were on guard, which was really more than worth the loss. "For the value of the tank, Qin Zhiyuan does not need to hide it.

Foch is a soldier who has fought all his life, he is an artilleryman, and at the same time proficient in cavalry, the value of tanks, even if Qin Zhiyuan does not say it, Foch can see it.

"What does your ideal tank look like? If you were given a tank unit, how would you use it? After listening to Qin Zhiyuan's conclusion, Foch asked a rhetorical question with an expressionless face.

"If it were me, I would redesign new tanks to have higher performance, and then concentrate more tanks to form a breakthrough in the positions of the Germans in a certain part, cut off the logistics routes of the Germans, and destroy the command centers of the Germans. In this way, we will be able to destroy the entire line of defense of the Germans, destroy the living forces of the Germans, and in a few times we will be able to reach Berlin in less than three years. Qin Zhiyuan didn't say big things, if he was given an armored division in World War II, he could indeed do it.

Unfortunately, this is World War I, and it is wishful thinking to want a tank division in World War II, you know, only the British army in the world now has 48 tanks, and more than half are in a state of scrapping.

"Here comes tea." With a crisp and pleasant sound, a cup of Longjing was placed in Qin Zhiyuan's hand, and then Julie put down a small plate, which contained some small biscuits: "How about tasting my craftsmanship, this is the true inheritance of Mrs. Foch." ”

"Uh-huh." For his daughter's courtesy, Foch expressed his dissatisfaction with a cold snort.

"Dad, you can have a piece too." Julie sensed Foch's jealousy and picked up a bear cookie and brought it to Foch's mouth.

Foch glared at Qin Zhiyuan as if demonstratively before taking it.

Qin Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows, and also picked up a piece from the small saucer, this is Pinocchio with a long nose.

is really hearted, Qin Zhiyuan smiled at Julie, and Julie reciprocated, which immediately dealt a heartfelt blow to Foch.

"If you're alright, go see how my dog is doing." Seeing that his good daughter was about to be abducted, Foch wanted to break Julie.

"Daddy, don't drive me away, I just fed Napoleon when I baked the biscuits, she's fine now, not hungry at all." Julie sat on the arm of Foch's chair and naturally wrapped her arms around Foch's shoulders.

Westerners have a habit of seeing their pets as part of the family, so they will choose a familiar name. This is not an insult, but a commemoration.

Foch felt very useful for Julie's coquettishness, and even looked at Qin Zhiyuan a lot.

"What are you talking about? I'm so happy, can I join? Seeing that Foch was very useful and narrowed her eyes, Julie took the opportunity to make a request.

"You won't be interested, men's topics are generally not to women's tastes." Foch still wants to break his daughter away, but there is no way, fire prevention, theft and thieves.

"Don't call me so old, Daddy, I'll always be your little girl. Also, please note that Ms. Julie Foch is an active military member and please respect her professionalism. "Ladies and girls, they can describe themselves as they like, as long as they want to. Of course, it is limited to oneself, and no one else, even one's own father.

"Well, well, of course I will respect Miss Julie Foch. So may I ask Julie Foch, do you know the 'water tank'? "When faced with their daughters, all fathers are helpless, and Foch is the same.

"Hehe, my dear father, please respect my work, the document in that person's hand was sorted out by my own hands for you in the morning." Hearing Foch ask, Julie suddenly rolled her cute little eyes.

"Uh...... Damn it, please forgive me for being an old man, Dad is old, he can't see people clearly, and he forgets easily, which is worth forgiving, isn't it? When Julie said "hehe", Foch knew that Julie was on the verge of anger.

Foch immediately apologized, leaving Julie behind calling Qin Zhiyuan "that person".

Julie also noticed that using "that person" to address Qin Zhiyuan was too intimate and a little embarrassed, so she immediately forgave her father: "I won't dislike you, for me, you are the only one in this world, no matter when." ”

As Julie spoke, she gently helped Foch straighten her unkempt beard with her hands. If you describe it in Chinese, this action is called "slippery".

"Hehe......" For his daughter's well-behaved, Foch was satisfied.

Just when Foch and Julie were interacting, Qin Zhiyuan had already finished drinking tea and was about to eat the small biscuits on the disc.

"Don't finish eating, save some for my dad, that's not for you alone." Julie discovered Qin Zhiyuan's stealing behavior.

This also fully shows that even when interacting with her father, Julie is paying attention to Qin Zhiyuan. This woman's attention is like that of a cat, as long as there is a moving object, it must be controlled.

It's like the Zixia Fairy's sentence: Half a step further, I'll kill you!

"Of course, uh...... Good craftsmanship and very tasty. Qin Zhiyuan was quite embarrassed.

"Hehe, go get some more, you should be happy that the guests can appreciate it." Foch still wanted to take Julie away.

"Okay, you guys talk first, I'll come back later." Julie poured the rest of the cookies into Foch's hand, then gave Qin Zhiyuan a roll of the eyes, turned around and floated away.

Stealing this kind of thing must not be found out by women, even if it is a little girl.
