Chapter 411: Sold a drawing of MK3
When Wang Hegang proposed his plan for Russian traitors, many crude people thought that it was not necessary. Separated from the Liaodong Peninsula and Maozi's army is a deserted Siberian Plain, which is one of the worst places in the world even in the 21st century.
As for Maozi's navy, uh, from ancient times to the present, Maozi's navy has also been "my ship was ordered to ram your ship!" "This is something worth bragging about, and the navy of the Tsarist era is really lackluster.
But now the situation of the rough embryos is completely different, the oil wells in West Borneo do not know that they will not be able to erect until the Year of the Monkey, their stocks of aviation fuel have been depleted, and the stocks of ammunition have fallen to a dangerous level.
For the sake of their own survival and the revival of their own ancient empire, the traversal had to face the situation of fighting Maozi in the east and in the north. At present, under the circumstance that the "director team" does not know what kind of wind to smoke, having a military mentally retarded person serve as the commander of Mao Zi's Far Eastern Army and Navy will undoubtedly be able to share a lot of pressure from the traversal.
"Are you sure that Uncle Huang will continue to be favored by his nephew when he returns over there?" Zhao Yi asked Wang He.
"I judge that there is at least a 90% chance that in the history of the original time and space, even if this imperial uncle made the Far East a mess during the Russo-Japanese War, he was still not kicked out of the center of power by his nephew, and even served as a member of the State Council after the abolition of the supervision system in Tsarist Russia. You must know that this is after he was kicked out for corruption and a series of military command mistakes in the Far East, which shows how powerful he is in the court. Wang He said.
"Alright then, the enemy's pig teammates are our divine support, and there is no better candidate to be our neighbor than Uncle Huang. Greedy for money and lustful, and with mediocre military talent, with him in power in the Far East, we can devote more energy to dealing with the footpot chicken. The island country is full of people now, so don't have another difficult opponent in the north. Zhao Yi said.
"We still need to be hard to strike iron, we can't just rely on the enemy's mistakes to make tricks, now I don't know what the 'director team' is doing, we have to speed up the expansion of the indigenous forces and realize the pace of equipment localization." Lu Xiangyang said.
At present, the public security forces use the 13-type five-shot Murata rifle of the foot basin chicken, the indigenous field forces use the British Lee-Metford MK2 rifle and the Odyssian Charlie rifle, and the peripheral armed personnel of the MID use a large number of Martini-Henry rifles eliminated by the British.
These guns come in five different calibers, which puts a huge pressure on the logistics department of the traversal, which really has to rely on its own ammunition to support these indigenous troops, and the first to fall must be the logistics arsenal.
The Crossing Crowd was interested in building their own rifles, so as to unify the caliber of ammunition and reduce the logistical pressure. But the rough match of the maintenance team has a drawing in their hands, and no one is convinced. The cents, Su Xiu, German sticks, and rabbit parties have a tendency to fight when they disagree, and in short, after several months of argumentation, they still can't come up with a plan.
The Soviets agreed that the Soviet-era improved Mo-Sinagan M1891/30 rifle was the most suitable rifle for indigenous troops, and the 7.62*55mm rifle cartridge it used could also be used as machine gun ammunition, greatly reducing the logistical pressure.
The Kar98k Mauser rifle was the best choice, and the 7.92*57mm bullet it used was the same as the MG42 general-purpose machine gun in World War II, which could reduce the logistical pressure. The Germans believed that the Mauser rifle had an advantage over the Mo-Sinnagant that was more suitable for the use of the Chinese, as evidenced by the large number of Chinese rifles equipped with the national army.
The Cents and the Rabbit Party believed that semi-automatic guns were in line with the characteristics of the indigenous troops, which were small but sophisticated, and could ensure the suppression of fire from other armies. The cents trumpeted the M1 Garland's record against Hans in the European and Pacific theaters, while the Rabbit Party believed that the 56 and a half was the real rifle for the Chinese.
Su Xiu and Debaon believed that when the submachine guns were already equipped to the squad and the heavy machine guns were to the company, equipping the indigenous soldiers with semi-automatic rifles was completely uncomfortable with logistics, and not everyone had the ability to deliver like Uncle Sam.
The Cents and Rabbit Party believe that the task of crossing the crowd tonight is a large-scale local war, and what they want is this kind of absolute suppression in firepower, and what kind of logistical pressure is there to talk about in waves?
Sometimes Zhao Yi was so angry that he wanted to kill people by the mentality of playing games and brushing his sense of existence, and a few times he wanted to close his eyes and touch a drawing so that they could make it, he was really fed up with their style of making trouble for a while with every piece of equipment from military uniforms to rifles, but after calming down, he finally found a reason to convince the rough embryos.
"First to get a rifle with ammunition that can be used with the MK3, John Bull had a production capacity problem in the arsenal during the First World War and was forced to switch to the production of P-14 rifles (Enfield M1917 rifles), which made the Yankees make a lot of money. If we had something like MK3, there would be no Yankees. Zhao Yi said to the rough embryos of the maintenance team.
Compared with this group of rough embryos of shooting rifles, the rough embryos of infantry artillery do not have so many tricks, and they really have no other choice than imitating Miss Qiwu. As the world's first modern field cannon, its hydraulic pipe retreat gives it a maximum rate of fire of 15 rounds per minute, and most of the crafts required to make it are available.
And Hans and the Opium Cow are going farther and farther on the road of dotting the crooked technology tree under the bewitchment of the people. Larger-caliber howitzers were what Hans and John Bull were hoping for at the moment, and Hans frantically added money to the metallurgical project jointly developed by Hans and the Crossers in the hope of getting a metal that could withstand higher chamber pressures.
The traversers threw out the steam turbine technology that John Bull could independently develop in the early history of the original plane, in exchange for some of their core technologies in metal metallurgy, and turned around and fooled Hans.
However, the last thing that can be fooled the most is the rough embryos of the maintenance team who are making a fuss about the finalization of their own rifles, and they actually fool Opium Cow into buying the drawings of the MK3!
After the group of rough embryos was awakened by Zhao Yi, they shamelessly announced to the opium cows that after a period of testing, they found that the British army was on active duty. The Enfield rifle had low accuracy and high recoil, making it unsuitable for infantry use. The Northern Industries Company of the Great Song Empire conducted a study on the current use of the British Army. The Enfield rifle was improved, and given the current Song-Ying alliance, the drawing could be transferred to the British.
After several of the elaborate sample guns were played with by the British, John Bull finally happily got the drawings at a "preferential" price, and the crosser's own factory found someone to pay for the production line before it even started.
