China, BAIC Automotive Group.

A group of British and Frenchmen, accompanied by factory personnel, were inspecting the goods at the test site. An off-road passenger and cargo vehicle, commonly known as a pickup truck, is speeding on the test site, which has no road at all, and is deliberately made potholed by the factory, and also sets up a lot of gravel, gravel, puddles, quagmire and other unfriendly terrain. But in front of this car, these things are not obstacles at all, and they can easily run over, neither puddles, mud pools, nor gravel, or a 30-degree slope can stop it.

The British and French were blinded. One of the tall French generals said very happily: "That's great! We hope to buy a lot of these passenger and cargo vehicles! At least 3,000 are needed! No, there can be more! 5,000, I think 5,000 is enough!"

Lieutenant General de Gaulle, the new commander of the French North African Juaf Corps, praised the car in front of him, and then said angrily to his deputy, Brigadier General Leclerc: "Renault and Citroën's bunch of waste are really damned, why can't they produce such a car?"

"Yes, General. Thanks to Chinese off-road vehicles, we were able to defeat the Germans in the Battle of the Loire. Leclerc sighed: "At that time, because of the traffic jam on the road, we ran hundreds of kilometers in one go in order to rush for time, and many times we drove directly from the field without roads. If we were using those broken cars made in France, I'm sure that at least half of them would be broken down on the road, but if you look at other people's Chinese goods, there is almost no loss, not even a breakdown on the road!"

"Well, that one is the old model of Beijing Motor, and the performance is already very good, and now the performance of this model called Beijing 3901 is even more excellent. You see, this kind of car can easily carry a squad of soldiers, with all their weapons and ammunition, and can even tow a 75mm cannon, or a trailer full of ammunition or something, and run on deserts, gravel, and cannon-damaged roads. De Gaulle's tone was full of joy: "I don't think there will be anything better in the world than this! With this kind of car, our mobile unit can be regarded as a real mobile unit!"

"These vehicles are very suitable for the North African theater, they have excellent off-road performance and maintainability, and I recommend that our imperial armies in North Africa, as well as the Egyptian army, also have this kind of car!" said a British general to his companion.

The French are now short of weapons and equipment, very lacking, very lacking. Because it's important, say it twice. It's not that they don't have it, it's that a lot of their arsenal is set up behind the Maginot Line and near Paris, and after the Maginot Line is breached, it doesn't have time to transfer before the Germans take it. This batch of weapons that can equip more than 40 divisions is cheap for the Germans, but it is useless for the Germans to hold these things, the weapons of the two sides are different, and the Germans can only use the slave army when they get this batch of weapons, and they themselves will not use them.

Now the French want to expand their troops in large quantities and urgently need a large number of weapons, and if they are not enough, they can only purchase and import them. And in today's world, there are only a few top powers that can meet this requirement, and of course it is impossible for the opposing camp to consider it, and Britain on its side is also expanding its troops and weapons are also tight. The French looked down on Soviet weapons, so that only China and the United States were left.

And China is the most recent, because the Eurasian Railway has now been extended to Tripoli, French Libya, to be precise, it can already be called the Asian-Africa-Europe Railway. The supplies sold by China can be sent directly to France's North African territories, which is incomparable to the United States, which needs to cross the Atlantic.

So the French sent a large number of orders to China, in addition to guns, artillery, planes, tanks, and ammunition supplies, the most bought were cars.

In the Battle of the Loire in late August and early September, the 4th Mechanized Infantry Division commanded by Charles de Gaulle was a great achievement, defeating two and a half German attacking forces and successfully holding Orleans. This was the first major victory of the French Army since the beginning of the war, and it had a huge morale boost for the French, and de Gaulle became a new hero, promoted from brigadier general to major general. After gaining a foothold in France, de Gaulle was promoted to lieutenant general and appointed military commander on the North African side, commanding all colonial forces in North Africa and concurrently serving as commander of the Juaf Corps.

North Africa is full of deserts and deserts, and the area is so large that it is impossible to let the French GIs ride camels without a suitable car. In the Battle of the Loire, de Gaulle requisitioned a large number of civilian cars to transport troops and supplies, and in that chaotic situation at that time, several Chinese-made off-road vehicles showed strong performance, leather and durable, simple and convenient maintenance, and could run on any road or without a road. In particular, its off-road performance is no less than that of the half-track car under his command, not to mention the maintenance and fuel utilization, which is simply a complete explosion.

De Gaulle also became a fan of Chinese cars. This time, the Zhu Af Corps and other colonial troops needed a large amount of weapons and equipment, and de Gaulle was not at ease, so he personally went to China to select goods.

This new "3901 type" off-road pickup truck launched by Beijing Motor was liked by him at a glance.

In the 20s of the original time and space, pickup trucks first appeared in the United States, it is a very practical and common means of transportation in the United States, and is deeply loved by Americans, it is a symbol of modern cowboy culture in the United States. As the U.S. pickup market boomed, pickup trucks also extended to other parts of the world.

Of course, this kind of model first appeared in China, and was bought in the United States and Europe before World War I. Its official name in China is "Passenger and Freight Vehicle" because it is too verbose and not as catchy as "Pickup", which is sold back from the United States.

Before World War I, because China's private consumption power was not high, these pickups were sold to the United States and Europe, and after World War I, China's life was better after the war, and the consumption capacity of the people was greatly improved, and after the economic crisis in 1929, China's private consumption rose by leaps and bounds. Over the years, the number of private cars in China has reached more than 50 million.

This "3901 type" pickup was originally designed for the needs of the rural areas in the northwest, Anxi and Mobei regions, at this time China's road conditions benefited from the infrastructure construction that lasted for 30 years, it has been very good, but after all, the area is so large, the city and suburbs are fine, the road conditions in the more remote countryside, especially in the countryside of the new territory, are relatively bad, plus the farmers will not carefully maintain anything, and the farmers buy this kind of car to do rough work, such as sometimes to use it as a tractor.

Therefore, when this model is designed, the most important performance is reliability, the second is maintenance, and the third is the ability to pass. In order to enhance these three features, many others have been compromised. This makes this model have excellent off-road ability, and the passing ability is so good that it can run bad roads. And it is extremely durable, and it also has very superior maintenance.

The car is equipped with a 6-litre, 300 kW (402 hp) high-power V8 engine, and wide, deep-toothed self-regulating steel wire radial wear-resistant off-road tyres that can be used to speed up to 80 km/h on extremely difficult roads. Because it often has to do rough work, part-time tractors or something, so the towing ability is also first-class, not to mention dragging a 75 mm caliber artillery, even if it drags a 105 mm caliber artillery, it can still run happily.

After learning that Britain and France had bought tens of thousands of pickup trucks in one go, Wen Desi couldn't help but sigh. Well, this pickup truck is indeed very suitable for the North African battlefield, and the British and French chose this car very discerningly, but Wen Desi couldn't help but think of the word "pickup rapid reaction force" in his head.

Think about it, a group of black millets, sitting on top of a Toyota pickup, waving an AK-47...... No, it was supposed to be a group of French and British GIs, standing in the body of a Beijing pickup, brandishing MAS-M1936 rifles or Lee Enfield rifles, shouting "For France" or "For the British Empire" to charge the Germans...... Or Charles de Gaulle, standing in the body of a pickup truck, giving an impassioned speech to a group of colonial soldiers. This style of painting doesn't seem to be right.,But how you think about it.,Is there?

Of course, Britain and France did not just buy pickup trucks, they also bought a large number of "hot equipment", that is, the active weapons that China is using. That's right, they don't like second-hand now, as long as they can use it. As for the issue of the caliber system, this is not a problem, not only did China package all the ammunition, but even sold dozens of ammunition production lines to them, all of which were dismantled from factories.

The factory executives who were "robbed" of the equipment were overjoyed, and sold a bunch of old equipment that was about to be replaced at three or even five times the original price, which is not always a good thing.

..................................................................

Haiwan County, China, Kou'an City.

Bao'an City is the name of this plane, and it is the famous local tyrant city in the original time and space - Dubai. It is the third largest city in the Gulf County, after the capitals Gulf West (Kuwait) and Gulf East (Muscat).

By the way, the ancient state of Muscat included most of Oman and the northeastern part of the Arabian Peninsula at its peak, but because the port of Muscat was transferred to China by the British, the original "Socialist Federal Republic of Muscat" was renamed the "Socialist Federal Republic of Muscat" in July last year in order not to be confused It is also an ancient state, a state founded by the ancient Arabs in Yemen in the first millennium BC, and is the main ancient state in Yemen and the southwestern part of the Arabian Peninsula, with the capital of Garno (Sana'a).

Dubai is a very new city, although it has been inhabited since the Bronze Age in 3000 BC. But the real history of Dubai began in 1833, when the sheikh of the royal family of Al Maktoum led 800 people to settle on the Cyndahar Peninsula in Dubai Creek Bay and declared its independence from Abu Dhabi. Prior to this, Dubai was only a vassal state of Abu Dhabi and was plagued by numerous tribal wars. With its strategic location, Maktoum led his people to actively develop industries such as trade and shipping. By the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, Dubai had become a relatively prosperous port.

But it was still too barren, except for the desert and the sea, and when China took over, although trade and shipping developed well, it benefited only from the magnates of the Maktoum royal family and the British companies that controlled it. The reason why this place became a tyrant city in the later generations of the original time and space was because of the development of oil, and at this time there was no oil, and the thing that could be exported was pearls. When China took over, it was still a small port city, mainly for pearl exports. Faced with a barren desert and sea, the local population has to rely on camels and dates, as well as fishing and pearl harvesting.

After China took over, it was first subjected to a drastic revolution in the social system, from property to religion. Yuan Datou's new management committee is enforcing Chinese values here with iron-blooded means. The original locals can stay, but they must change customs, Wen Deji has always scoffed at the so-called "diversity", a country only needs and can only have one culture, since you want to be Chinese, then you must accept Chinese culture, integrate into the main ethnic group, that is, Sinicization, if you pass the fourth level of Chinese and the sixth level can become a quasi-citizen, if you complete military service or pass the Chinese cultural examination, you can officially become a citizen. In addition, the original radical and conservative factions in the region were banned and forcibly converted, and in addition to adopting the "Eastern Apocalypse" born from the Bahá'í sect to replace it, Buddhism and Taoism and other indigenous Chinese religions were also introduced.

As for those who are unwilling to integrate the nationalities, then ask him to "go to you", and if he refuses to do both, then there is only one way - labor reform. And even the good people of the locals were scattered and resettled by Yuan Datou and them to invite him to a new territory. The new management committee's principle for the resettlement of local aborigines is that most of them must be scattered and relocated to other places in small families, and most of the local people cannot stay in the local area anyway. Of course, the out-migration of the locals was accompanied by the migration of people from other places, mainly from mainland China, and the Han Chinese had to be more than two-thirds of the local population. Yuan Datou believes that such measures are conducive to national integration.

However, when China took over, the number of indigenous people in the entire Gulf County (then called the Gulf Special Zone) was not large, and the total number of indigenous people from the nearly 320,000 square kilometers of land in the Gulf West (Kuwait) and the Gulf East (Muscat) was less than 300,000, with an average of less than one person per square kilometer. No matter what you do, it is much easier than in Nanyang and Central Asia.

After two decades of development, the population of the entire Bay County has grown to nearly two million, and most importantly, the demographics have completely changed, with 93 percent of Chinese immigrants and 6 percent from other new territories, with less than 1 percent of the local indigenous people. In other words, China has taken complete control of the area, and the entire southern part of the Gulf has become part of it "since ancient times".

Well, not a joke, it's really "since ancient times". Because not long after taking over from the British, the big head "dug up" a pile of Chinese antiques here. The oldest is the excavation of the remains of a Chinese-style castle on the outskirts of Dubai, in which dozens of bronzes and pottery from the Western Zhou Dynasty were found, as well as a turtle button gold seal, which was engraved with four large seals of "The Seal of the Lady". Chinese experts say that this was once the fief of a prince of the Zhou Dynasty, and the name of the fief was "寔", and the title was viscount, which was the same level as the state of Chu.

It is because of this ancient city that Dubai was renamed "Wo'an".

You ask the Chinese of the Western Zhou why they ran over there to enclose the land, we don't know this, anyway, the antiques are real, if you don't believe it, you can test it, it is definitely authentic Western Zhou antiques. As for whether the ancient documents mention "Baozi"? This is no problem, there are so many masters of literature and history in the Academy of Literature and History under the command of Mr. Wen, who are not raised for nothing, and there are many wild masters who want to come in with sharp brains, not to mention a large number of experts in antique shops (including fake experts), as well as the veteran captains of the Special Examination Committee, General Faqiu, mountain movers, and unloading wrestlers. There is no shortage of modern chemists, architects and other experts. There is no problem with both theoretical and technical support. Come on, let's write a copy for him, or use a knife and pen to engrave it in bamboo slips, it's absolutely antique, it's more real than the real thing.

Well, such a wonderful thing, of course, will not be only used in the Gulf region, every new territory that China acquires, soon after taking over, will unearth all kinds of Chinese antiques and relics. It's basically true, well, basically true.

The jurisdiction of Kou'an City is much larger than that of Dubai, including the entire Kou'an Peninsula (Musandam Peninsula) including Sharjah and Haisai in Oman, as well as part of Abu Dhabi and Ain, as well as part of Oman's Tahira Province and Batinai Province, covering an area of more than 23,600 square kilometers. The city is strategically located in the northern part of the city of Bao'an (Strait of Hormuz), which is located at the throat of the Persian Gulf to the Indian Ocean. So it's also an important Chinese military base in the Gulf region.

The 11th Army of the Chinese Army is based in the city of Bao'an, and they are responsible for guarding the choke point of the Persian Gulf and controlling the Middle East. The 11th Group Army is an extremely mechanized force, with more than 100,000 troops under its command, and the main force is two mechanized infantry divisions, one motorized infantry division, one armored division, one army aviation brigade, and one armored brigade.

At this time, the garrison of the 67th Panzer Division was lively. A large number of armored combat vehicles were driven out of the camp by the officers and soldiers and parked neatly outside the camp. A group of high-nosed foreigners in military uniforms were looking at these steel monsters with happy faces.

"Great! This is the Red Wolf! The best armored chariot!" a British major general smiled as he looked at the neat steel monsters.

"Major General Montgomery, this is the Red Wolf-D, the latest Red Wolf, our best medium tank in China. Yang Ning, who was accompanying them next to him, said with a smile: "Compared with the earliest Red Wolf, its main gun has been raised to 90 mm, which is more powerful...... Everyone is an expert, and they must know that if the charioteers can't maintain their condition well, they won't be able to give full play to their advantages. Some of the vehicles were so unfriendly that the man sat on them and got dizzy in less than an hour...... However, this Red Wolf-D model is different, it enlarges the turret than the original model, expands the space in the body, improves the suspension system, and also adds an air conditioning system, which is more comfortable to ride and can better allow front-line officers and soldiers to maintain combat effectiveness. ”

Yang Ning moved his sales tactics in Spain again, and he was constantly selling and boasting. He was originally an expert, and he had been in charge of the armored forces for many years, and he got to the point, making a group of Allied officers dance with their eyebrows.

"Although these vehicles are used by our military, we have always paid great attention to the maintenance of our weapons, so they only need to be repainted, just like new. And these vehicles are all used by us, so we can guarantee that there will be no problems with them. ”

"Very good, Your Excellency, Lieutenant General. That's exactly what we need......" Montgomery said happily. This batch of tanks was given to him, and of course he was happy. But out of caution, he said, "Your Excellency, can I go up and try it?"

Yang Ning spread his hands and said indifferently: "Of course, please choose any one." Oh, and you can also try your hand at targeting......"

In the afternoon of the same day, the representatives of the Entente completed the acceptance of the chariots, and on the same day they were transported to the railway station of Bao'an, where they boarded a special train to Egypt and sent directly to Alexandria.

After the foreigners left, Hu Zongnan, commander of the 67th Armored Division, couldn't help but ask: "Commander, so many red wolves have been sold to the British, so what do we use? All the chariots of our division were given to the British, and now they are all infantry......

"What are you panicking about? Yang Ning glanced at him and smiled evilly: "Xiaohu, do you know how much our Red Wolf sells?"

Hu Zongnan thought for a while and stretched out a finger: "I think, there should be ...... There are 100,000 ......."

"One hundred thousand?" Yang Ning said contemptuously: "It's not enough to buy a turret......

"No, Commander. I remember that the price of this red wolf is 75,000 yuan, and it is second-hand, 100,000 yuan is not enough to buy a turret?" Hu Zongnan exclaimed. He estimated the price at 100,000 yuan, which he felt was already excessive.

"Seventy-five thousand is the internal price, the same thing, can you give your son the same price as to outsiders?" Under the expectant gaze of his subordinates, Yang Ning stretched out a slap, curled his thumb halfway, and said word by word: "Four hundred and fifty thousand cars!"

"Four...... Four hundred and fifty thousand ......" Hu Zongnan's jaw was about to hit the instep of his foot, he felt that he was really not the material for business.

"Yes, this is a spot sale of a hot engine, and of course the price is a little more expensive. And we have a giveaway for each car. Each vehicle received 100 rounds of artillery shells, 3,000 rounds of ammunition, 100 liters of diesel fuel, 100 liters of engine oil, a set of special maintenance tools, spare tracks and other common spare parts, a total of 100 kinds of gifts. Buy one get one hundred free, it's a great deal, hahahaha......"

"......" Hu Zongnan and the others looked at each other, and they were so thundered that they didn't know what to say, and the old car that had been used for several years could be sold for six times the price of a new car.

Yang Ning smiled enough and asked, "You say, is such a profitable business sold?"

"Sell, sell, sell, don't sell, it's not a person!" Du Yuming, the commander of the 42nd Mechanized Infantry Division, immediately shouted, and when he saw Hu Zongnan glaring at him, he immediately added: "Commander, then we should use a new chariot!"

"Well, Xiao Du, you finally thought of it, if the old doesn't go, the new won't come. I'll give you an account, half of the money for buying equipment this time will become our new equipment. Yang Ning said with a smile: "We haven't changed our clothes on a large scale for so many years, and what we're waiting for is this kind of Kaizi." What could be more cost-effective in this world than using other people's money to dress yourself?hahahaha...... "Oh, absolutely antique, more real than the real thing."

Well, such a wonderful thing, of course, will not be only used in the Gulf region, every new territory that China acquires, soon after taking over, will unearth all kinds of Chinese antiques and relics. It's basically true, well, basically true.
