Chapter 380: Escort
Everyone is not mistaken, the third project that Fang Lang wants Girard Bull to study is the bazooka, for this thing, as long as you have watched the movie or played the game, there should be no unfamiliarity.
After all, in later movies, the figure of American GIs shouting "RpG" at every turn, and then dodging in embarrassment, is really impressive.
And RpG was developed by the USSR on the basis of the German Iron Fist.
Of course, his main role was to attack armored targets, but after later developments, many different warheads were derived. His application scenarios have also been further expanded.
In later war scenarios, he was much more likely to appear than a mortar.
It's not that he is more powerful than mortars, the main thing is that he is simple to use and inexpensive.
As long as you are a person who can shoot, you can use it directly when you pick it up.
Unlike mortars, you still need to observe and measure before you can hit accurately.
During World War II, the Allies were equipped with a large number of American-made bazookas, so Girard Bull must have been very familiar with this simple and practical weapon.
As soon as he heard Fang Lang call out the name of "Bazooka", he understood what the other party wanted. Nodding without hesitation:
"Of course, this rocket launcher is equipped in a very large number of Allied forces, and it is the main combat equipment of the US military, and many factories in the United States have obtained his authorization for production."
"Then can we build on Bazooka and turn him into a more accurate and long-range individual anti-tank weapon."
Fang Lang looked at Girard Bull with anticipation, and the other party nodded when he heard this:
"No problem, but the working principle of this equipment is very simple, and there is not a lot of room for improvement, so you better be prepared."
In this regard, Fang Lang had already expected that what he wanted to obtain was a single bazooka that was the same as RpG.
If you want to have a longer range and more power, you have to look at the later anti-tank missiles, which are obviously beyond the scope of work of individual rocket launchers.
Nodding his head, he said:
"No problem, we have to solve the problem of these equipment first, and then slowly improve it to see if we can get more advanced performance through continuous improvement."
This equipment could have been produced and developed in other factories, but the time will definitely be affected.
The artillery factory is the military factory with the most advanced equipment, the most equipment, and the highest quality of workers in his hands.
With so many advantages, it would be a waste not to make good use of them.
At the same time that Fang Lang visited the artillery factory, the capital Rio de Janeiro was going on a trial of the century related to him.
The brothers Briso Eddy and Raymond Eddy of the Eddie family in Brazil were taken from prison by a team of heavily armed bailiffs and taken to a military court under the Brazilian Ministry of Defence for trial.
This trial attracted the attention of a large number of people, after all, the family's treason crime has almost reached the point of being known to everyone after the news media has followed up and reported it every day.
Even if they are illiterate, when two people stand together, they can talk a lot about the family, gossip and secrets.
After all, many tabloids in Brazil may not have the ability to dig up the latest criminal evidence about the Eddie family, but isn't the gossip story between family members made up with imagination?
What's more, there is already a heroine named Mizuno Xiaoling in this, who can play to her heart's content.
For a while, there was a lot of lace news about the Eddie family, and every Brazilian could name several versions.
The men who have a leg with Mizuno Xiaoling in the Eddie family have long been more than just Craitch Eddie and Raymond Eddie.
Even Brissot Eddie, who has a low presence in this piece, has become one of the leading actors.
Female members of the family are also repeatedly married to men such as housekeepers and servants.
In short, the entire Eddie family has become the most filthy existence that the Brazilian people can think of.
Because the Eddie family controls the Brazilian security system, many people who have been bullied by the police vent their hatred on each other.
Even the Brazilian police walk down the streets, often pointing fingers at the civilians.
The government did not make any publicity about the trial of the two.
The trial was also held in a military court, which was not open to the public.
But it still attracted the attention of the general public.
Early in the morning, a large number of civilians came to the prison gate from all directions, using various means of transport.
Want to see the brothers Brissot Eddy and Raymond Eddy being court-martialed.
As soon as the bailiffs who were escorting the two brothers from prison were brought out of prison they were told that they were surrounded by civilians and journalists who had rushed from all directions.
As the commander of the escort, Mirovich felt very nervous when he heard this situation, and hurriedly asked his superiors for help.
"Sir, the situation is very tense right now, and the prison is already crowded with journalists and civilians.
I'm very worried that they will act in a way that hurts the prisoner and that it might cause our escort mission to go haywire. ”
"What's going on, how will reporters and civilians know when you started your escort mission.
Don't you even have a sense of secrecy? ”
When the superiors heard Milovic's report, they were furious.
And after Milovic heard the reprimand from his superiors, he was also dissatisfied, what does it mean that we have no sense of secrecy.
How can you be sure that this operation is leaking news from us!
But it was impossible for him to talk back to the other party directly, so he could only continue:
"Sir, where the news leaked out is impossible to verify now.
But our squad consisted of only twenty people, and the number of journalists and civilians outside the prison exceeded two hundred.
The prison warden has arranged for prison guards to help maintain order, but now that the situation is in place, it is clear that it is not enough, and we urgently need to strengthen our forces.
And that's just the danger at the prison gates.
The whole process of our escort was almost 20 kilometers long, and I was very worried that there would be any other situation elsewhere on the road. ”
"Then what are you going to do now, the time for the trial to start is getting closer and closer!
Even if I send you support now, it's too late. ”
Milovich seemed to have expected this situation, he looked at the office, confirmed that no outsiders were there, and said directly:
"I wanted the prison guards to help, pretending to escort the prisoners out and luring the people outside.
Our two teams took ordinary cars and quietly followed behind to bring the real prisoner to the courtroom. ”
As soon as the superior heard this, he directly stopped doing it, and scolded loudly:
"No, it's too risky.
If something goes wrong, are you responsible? ”
Milovich, who seemed to have anticipated the reaction of his superiors, spoke again:
"Sir, the road from prison to court-martial is now full of people and journalists waiting to see Brother Eddie.
If we continue to proceed from prison openly, we will definitely become the focus of everyone.
Being watched all the way, there is no way to guarantee that you will arrive at the court on time.
According to my plan, after everyone's attention has been drawn, we can smoothly send the prisoner to the court for trial.
As for the risk, I don't think it's risky, but according to the original plan, it is really risky to let the two of them swagger in the prison car and send them to the courtroom.
After all, all the populace is very hostile to the two, and I'm afraid that someone will be tempted to do something to them. ”
On this point, the chief and Milovic have the same opinion, and both feel that the danger of escorting the two may be that someone will want to kill the two directly.
So, nominally, they were responsible for escorting the Eddie brothers to the court for trial, but in fact they needed to protect the two of them so that they could reach the court alive for trial.
When Milovic's superiors heard his suggestion, they still refused without hesitation:
"No, we have to follow the process, I can come forward and ask the warden to arrange for prison guards to assist you in escorting the prisoners to the court according to the original plan.
However, you are never allowed to change your plans and transport prisoners in a car.
If there is an accident, no one can be held responsible. ”
Seeing that the superior did not enter, Milovich was very annoyed, and hung up the phone directly, scolding in his mouth:
"Responsibility, responsibility, all day long, I'm only afraid of taking responsibility, I don't have any courage at all, the corpse is vegetarian, bastard."
One of the fighters standing beside Milovich raised his hand, looked at the watch in his hand, and whispered to him:
"Head, what do we do now, it's too late."
Milovich glanced at the dense crowd outside the gate from the upstairs of the prison, and felt that at this time, according to the original plan, the use of four cars to escort a prisoner cart directly out of the prison is too dangerous, everyone, as soon as they see the prisoner cart, knows that the Eddie brothers must be locked in the prison cart.
Everyone will surround them, and it will be too dangerous to send the two to the court-martial.
In the end, Milovic gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and simply patted his eucalyptus and said:
"No matter what, just follow my plan, let the prison guards escort the two fake prisoners, attract everyone's attention, and we will take a private car and take another route to take the two to the court."
When the people behind him heard Milovich's words, they all looked worried, and the warrior who had just spoken spoke directly said:
"Head, but this plan has not been authorized!
If the problem comes out, we're done! ”
Milovich glanced at everyone in the room, who were all brothers who had been born and died together, and everyone trusted each other.
After hearing the words of this warrior, Milovich looked at the crowd:
"Only a few of us brothers know about this plan, can't you trust our brothers?"
As soon as he heard this, the warrior was also anxious, and got up directly and said:
"Head, that's not what I meant........"
Milovic interrupted him with a wave of his hand:
"Let me tell you the truth! This mission is not simple, and there is intelligence that the brother of Pulsatilla, who was slaughtered on the island, has entangled a group of outlaws and vowed to kill the Eddie brothers directly.
If, as originally planned, we had taken the prisoner van directly to the court-martial, the attack would have happened 100 percent, so I wanted to transport the prisoners quietly in a small car. ”
When everyone in the room heard this, their expressions were all shocked, and their hands holding the guns tightened a little.
"What? Head, does the superior know the news?
Why are we only sent a team to escort us? ”
A fighter looked at Milovic in disbelief.
Hearing this, Milovic shook his head with a wry smile and said:
"I don't know if my superiors know about this news.
But I can assure you that the message I received was absolutely accurate.
That's why I had to escort quietly.
I can't joke with the lives of our brethren. ”
