Chapter 19: Cannon (1)

"Yo, the weapons that have appeared on the market recently came from you, right?" It's obviously a questioning tone, but it sounds like an affirmative sentence. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

As soon as they met, Wen Hui was stunned by the question, but the different opening remarks were disgusting. What's more, Wenhui's goods are very recognizable, and the quality is so good that you can tell them at a glance.

"Ahem~ There are not many things, basically rifles, pistols and grenades and the like, there are not many quantities, and the artillery above the grenadier canister has not been sold......" Why is he so weak-hearted, and when he says this, he quickly stops, "Mr. If you want to inspect, you can notify you, so it is not in line with your identity to be in danger, and you should bear half of the responsibility for this incident." ”

"Okay, this matter is revealed, and there is nothing wrong with the soldier doing his duty. Let's talk in another place, and if your 'product' satisfies me, I can talk to you about your request. ”

Since everyone has said so, Wen Hui doesn't go around in circles, isn't he going around such a big circle just to catch up with the people in the military procurement system. Now that the goal has been achieved, the domestic business is pinched, and the central government is the rich man.

Calling everyone to the shooting range, the parts that had just been pulled out of the warehouse were being assembled, and the lubricating oil on them was all new. Seeing the mountain cannon being assembled, Yu Dawei walked over quickly with people, and the new and old parts could be seen.

After watching a mountain cannon be assembled, several people returned silently, with no expression on their faces, but the joy in their eyes had betrayed their true thoughts in their hearts.

The ten cannons have been assembled one after another, Wen Hui is not showy, and directly gives up the position, there is time, there are shells, whatever you want to test!

"How many more do you have?" Watching the artillery on the field test firing one after another, Yu Dawei was not polite, and it was natural to talk about business at this point.

"How much do you want?"

"Two, no, is there a problem with the number of three artillery regiments?"

So little? There are twenty-four doors in one regiment, and there are only seventy-two doors in three regiments, "You don't want to buy more?" ”

This time it was Yu Dawei's turn to be surprised, and it was not the vegetable market to buy cabbage! Staring at Wen Hui up and down, it didn't look like he was joking: "How many mountain cannons do you have?" ”

"Instead of asking me how much, I should ask you how much, Your Excellency, let's put Bofors aside and follow me." The artillery on the field was tested, but Wen Hui did not enter the bargaining session.

A group of people walked to the warehouse under the leadership of Wen Hui, and the soldiers who had been waiting inside for a long time began to lift their gun jackets at the same time as the guests entered the warehouse, and the assembled Bofors 75 guns were placed here, and they were open-legged gun carriage models, and the prototype Bofors 75 guns were one-legged gun mounts (the current artillery is now a two-legged hoe behind the deployment, and there are also one-legged hoe guns in World War I and World War II).

"This warehouse plus the ten doors outside is a total of 100 doors, can you take it with you at once?" Wen Hui casually pointed to the artillery displayed in the warehouse and said.

"Hiss ~ shell ......" shut up before he could speak, he could provide so many artillery, and naturally there was no supply problem with shells.

"You...... These...... Can all be sold? Yu Dawei was also frightened by Wen Hui's supply capacity, the 96 guns they bought from Sweden have arrived one after another, and one hundred and ten guns appeared at this time (counting the ten guns of the 28th Army), when will the artillery be supplied in such a large quantity?

"Of course, as long as you have enough money for the goods, you can take them all away, and you don't have to worry about shells. If you can give me a divisional establishment, you will be given a 75% discount on the price of a single shell ($15 per round). "These are just small fights, 75 guns really don't make much money, and regular pipes of 105 and above are the main ones to make money.

"Good! That's it! "What is a divisional establishment! The price of artillery is one-third cheaper, and the shells are one-quarter cheaper, no matter how profitable the other party is, I am afraid that there will be no second one in the international market with lanterns in this transaction. For fear that Wen Hui would regret it, Yu Dawei made a decision on the spot, and he was impatient to pull Wen Hui to sign the agreement.

"Only 75? Don't look at the others? "This is the first thing, you have to buy some of the rest.

Wen Hui's words made Yu Dawei show such an expression, where is there a white advantage, if you want to use this price to get a cannon, you have to take other things, but his weapons here are generally cheap, and it doesn't seem to be a loss, "Then this ......"

"We have negotiated this deal, and then it is a matter of closing." Wen Hui said that there is no such thing as repentance, no matter what the subsequent transaction is, this batch of artillery is at this price.

"Good!"

This battalion and regimental artillery is available, and the pipes of larger units have to be looked at. Wen Hui led a group of people to the next warehouse, where the artillery suitable for them was prepared, although the model is a little old, but the performance is not bad, it is still no problem to suppress the artillery of the foot basin chicken, of course, this performance refers to the domestic battlefield is not the European battlefield.

"This is Schneider?!" They are all engaged in the military industry, and when they see something, they will recognize which company's product it is.

"That's right."

After getting the reply, many people looked weird, Schneider's things had been used, and the quality of the products was okay. But Schneider's master's Gallic chicken is not on the right path with the government of the Republic of China, and it is okay to swallow their weapons purchase money, the most important thing is that the Gallic chicken has a good relationship with the Japanese government (the teacher of the army red deer), and it is basically impossible to export weapons to them on a large scale, let alone heavy artillery!

Originally, the various powers took care of the sentiments of Japan, a powerful country in East Asia, and basically did not provide weapons to the Republic of China on a large scale. However, there was a defeated Germany, which needed raw materials on one side and weapons on the other, and the two sides hit it off (Sino-German honeymoon period). But the Germans' things are good, the price is also expensive, and the needs of the people themselves to expand the army cannot be met, how can they take care of the needs of the Republic of China government (not only the poor but also the cargo owners)!

"Rest assured, although I sell French guns here, I have nothing to do with the French government. If you have something you like here, then pay for it, and if you don't like it, let's change the next one. "What I took out this time is all in line with the national conditions.

And to be honest, the artillery that the French made in the First and Second World Wars was not bad, and from the data point of view, it could completely beat the artillery of other countries, and the guns of the same caliber were not as light as it was to hit it, and the range was not as far as it was lighter. Although the artillery is good, but the Gallic chicken battle is really not good, there is no outstanding performance in the First World War, and at the beginning of the Second World War, he knelt down, squatting on the side and watching the whole play, which can only be said to be blind to these good things. It is better to give them a different place to shine, and as for the protests of the French government, they are still concerned about how to survive under the iron heel of the Germans.

The Schneider guns that Wen Hui took out were basically products from 35 years ago, but they were more than enough to meet the needs of the current national army.

Then take a look, anyway, you don't need money, let's see if there's a good comparison. And sharp-eyed people have seen the big pipe placed in the back, at least 105 or more guys, the current heavy artillery of the national government in addition to the newly bought treasures, the remaining artillery is the Liao Republic of China 14-year 150mm field howitzer (imitation Meiji 38 150mm field howitzer) and the Liao Republic of China 19-year 150mm howitzer (imitation Taizheng four-year 150mm field howitzer) imitated by Zhang Zuolin's Shenyang Arsenal, The performance of these two is relatively rubbish, and when Zhang Gongzi entered the customs, he gave the entire military industry system in the Northeast to the Japanese.

"You can really get heavy artillery!" Zhao Liming was actually there, and Wenhui didn't see him at the end of the team just now.

"What's the matter? I'm so much like a liar? ”

Swindler? I used to have this idea, but now, Zhao Liming looked Wen Hui up and down, now it's more like a monster who doesn't know where to run, not to mention the money, the army under his command is also a strong army, and he can get the heavy artillery that the government urgently needs, or a large number!

"General Yu, do you have a fancy for it? If you like it, let's pull it out and try it. Wen Hui greeted warmly.

"Then it's troublesome." Turning his eyes off the explanation board standing in front of the gun (traditional data commentary, similar to the explanation board of the museum), Yu Dawei was not polite, they didn't need to bear the cost of Wen Hui's posture test gun, so why not try it. And this kid has done his homework, and the Schneider guns in front of him are very suitable for the current army equipment, and if they can really be purchased in large quantities, the formation of a pack-carrying artillery unit or a horse-drawn towed artillery is no longer an idea on paper.

"Guards!" Wen Hui greeted loudly, hurry up, I didn't see a big customer asking for inspection!
