It has to be admitted that Franco's popularity in the Spanish army is undoubted, which can be seen from the respect that the soldiers of the national army and the middle and lower rank officers respect him. Even if this kind of person is a villain, he is a rare "charismatic type", after all, he has no real skills, and it is impossible to become a fascist regime that has survived for the longest time.

You must know that Spain was still a feudal imperial country until 1923, and it was only in 1931 that it became a republic for the first time, and it has only been a short five years, and the restoration of the imperial system is not something that many Spaniards cannot accept. Coupled with the fact that the republican government that had failed to reform was currently widely criticized by the people, Franco's rise to prominence led many to naively see him as "the hope of Spain".

The people are like that, when the hopes brought by one ruler are dashed, they place their hopes on another. Even if the other party hasn't done anything, they will wishfully believe that "this one will be better than the previous one"!

Let's say a certain Congress party and Moody's in another time and space (laughs)!

At Franco's invitation, Zhao Jian followed the other party to visit the barracks of the Nationalist Army, and the other party hoped to get the arms support of the "Datang North Industry Group" behind Zhao Jian and even the state. In the handling of international relations, Franco is best at "seeing the wind and steering the rudder", and this guy does not want to make enemies with any old power except for his clear-cut anti-communism.

"Regardless of the level of equipment, I don't think our Spanish soldiers are worse than any other country."

Pointing to the soldiers who were training in the open field, Franco said with a smug face. Although Zhao Jian complained in his heart that "victory or defeat sometimes depends on the level of equipment", at least he still has to make a look of echoing the other party. However, compared to the uninteresting infantry on the other side, the armored machine soldiers who were practicing assault not far away made Zhao Jian very interested.

"Germany's I? It's really a novel design that was forced to come out! ”

After the end of World War I, Germany was a defeated country, and the development of many weapons was banned, including armored machine units, which were coquettish on the land battlefield. The Germans, who were not willing to sink like this, made a comeback in the future. In the name of "developing agricultural equipment", he secretly developed the No. 1 armored machine unit codenamed "migrant workers".

This kind of armored machine is not nominally military equipment, does not have any built-in weapon system, the standard equipment of the factory is an oversized rake and iron pickaxe, and the instruction manual also explains how to operate this mecha to open up wasteland and farm. The biggest feature of this body is that it has a pair of human hands with the ability to grasp, the index finger and thumb of the palm are independent, and the other three are combined into a whole, which looks more "human" than those freaks who combined hands and cannons at the same time!

It is worth mentioning that at the same time as this mecha, there was also a strange thing that can be called "the heaviest individual weapon in history" - the Breda 20mm portable cannon. The 150-kilogram "gun ♂" uses a 20mm fragmentation grenade, and the instructions not only indicate that it is a "single weapon". And it's police!

All right! Are the German police and bandits monsters?

In short, after the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War, these two weapons, which were once "emphasized" and had nothing to do with each other, finally came together! The 5.3-ton, 4.8-meter-tall "migrant worker" put down the farm tools that had never been clayed, picked up this hand-held machine gun that seemed to be tailor-made for himself, and went to the battlefield in Spain.

Guderian said: This is really a coincidence. As for whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway!

However, although this design is novel, it is convenient for the mecha to change weapons. But the I itself was not a good armored machine. First of all, too weak armor will affect its survivability. In terms of attack, the 20mm cannon is enough to hit people, but it is quite powerless to deal with armored soldiers. It is true that the T-26 and BT-5 aided by the Soviet Union are not very strong, but there is no problem in bullying the "migrant workers" who were born at the wrong time.

"You know what? Mr. Zhao, my intelligence officer said that the republican government had colluded with the evil Soviet Union. Those stupid guys don't even know they're asking the devil for help! I can't imagine what a terrible spectacle it would be if Spain were completely infected with the red virus, your country is so close to them, you should be very careful! ”

"Uh...... I think the country's top brass should pay attention to this. ”

I know that Franco is extremely anti-communist. Zhao Jian followed the other party and did not refute anything. A "pragmatist", he has no special feelings about capitalism and communism. In his opinion, as long as most people can live a good life without worrying about food and clothing, it doesn't matter if it is an imperial system. In this regard, the Tang Li clan of the Ming Dynasty is simply unscientific, and the folk even rumored that the royal family has eaten the secret medicine of the immortal clan that can make people smarter, otherwise it would not be so DIO!

Zhao Jian and Franco were standing on a small hillside, watching the soldiers below drill, when Zhao Jian suddenly felt a pinprick electric current flash in his mind. Zhao Jian, who had encountered this situation several times, knew that this was a phenomenon of strong emotional fluctuations from someone nearby in his direction, and he once accidentally ate Xiao Lu's cake by mistake, and he felt a similar "current" from the other party.

So Zhao Jian looked in the direction where the current came from, and saw a patrol team coming over there. These soldiers took the initiative to salute Franco when passing by, Zhao Jian's eyes swept the eyes of these people, and found that the eyes of the third person in the queue were very wrong, and at this time the distance between the two sides was less than 5 meters, the soldier suddenly put his hand into his arms, took out a Soviet Tokarev pistol, raised his hand and aimed the muzzle of the gun at Franco, who was facing away from him, and then pulled the trigger.

"Traitor Franco, suffer death!"

At the last moment, Zhao Jian, who was aware of it in advance, took the first step, and before the assassin pulled the trigger, he kicked Franco's knee socket, and the other party immediately leaned back, which was able to avoid the bullet. The assassin who missed the shot immediately angrily aimed his gun at Zhao Jian, but the shot just now had already alarmed everyone around, and the soldiers behind him immediately pounced. The opponent fired two shots in succession, but both of them hit the ground, and finally were subdued on the spot by the soldiers who rushed up.

"Franco! You capitalist stooge! You have betrayed Spain! It is not good to die forever!! ”

Even if the subdued assassin was pressed to the ground with different dynamics, his mouth kept cursing Franco, the phrase "capitalist lackey" was simply full of socialist characteristics, and Franco's face was as black as a dark cloud. He picked up the pistol that the other party had dropped, and without hesitation, shot it into the other person's head, and the assassin's curse suddenly stopped, and the brain mixture and blood splattered the faces of Franco and the soldiers around him.

"Hang up the idiot's corpse and make a sign so that people know who he is? Why did he die? ”

Franco, who had a gloomy face, looked around, the other party at this time was like a demon king, exuding a dangerous aura all over his body, while Zhao Jian stared at the assassin's corpse for a long time. Instinct told him that the guy on the ground who could still take advantage of the heat was definitely not a communist! (To be continued......)
