Chapter XXXIII M1910 Type 122 mm Cannon

"M1910 122mm howitzer, Victor, if you can accept it, I can provide this type of gun." Tasha held back for a long time, and finally came up with an answer.

"M1910 Type 122mm howitzer? Tasha, it can't be the artillery of the Tsarist era, it has been more than a hundred years, and even if there is a cannon, can you find a matching cannonball? Wang Yuefu forehead, he really likes old weapons, if the base is in the kind of environment where time stops, the M1910 122mm gun may not be bad, but in normal time and space, it is different.

"Victor, you may not know much about the history of the Union, this model of artillery has undergone general maintenance and life extension in the thirties of the last century, and the state is by no means comparable to the tsarist era, in the armies of the Far East, this artillery was in service until the end of World War II and was mothballed, and the shells were produced during the Great Patriotic War, the quality is very good, I promise to use it, I sold it to Yemen the year before last, really!" Tasha made a swear look and replied earnestly.

"Caliber 121.92 mm, total weight 1330 kg, barrel length 1560 mm, maximum range 7700 meters, muzzle velocity 335 m / s, this thing is only 1.3 tons?" Wang Yue searched for this kind of artillery on the Internet, and was attracted by the ultra-low weight at first sight, no wonder the 200th division of General Dai in the time and space of the bright sword is equipped with this thing, light, let alone North China, even the Jiangnan water network area can also be used.

"Yes, there are no big drawbacks, except for a slightly closer range." Tasha echoed with some humility.

"How much does it cost?" Wang Yue glanced at the girl, and little Tasha began to pretend to be stupid again, so she liked this girl to pretend to be stupid and stunned seriously.

"Fifty thousand dollars a door, that's the price including shipping, I promise, you won't find a cheaper price in the world? If you need it, I can fly it right away, and it will arrive tomorrow! As soon as Tasha heard that there was a business door, she immediately regained her spirits.

"Please, Tasha, the last time you sold me the M-1938 122mm howitzer, it was also at this price, you don't think this old gun is an antique, right?" Wang Yue glared at Tasha, this thing was indeed valuable to him, but to Tasha, it was just a pile of scrap metal.

"Victor, you know, I have to give an account to the company and the family, so let's do it, if there are more than 100 shells, 40,000 dollars a piece, don't worry, I can get you back from the cannonballs, and this kind of old cannonballs in stock will be issued to you for fifty dollars until they are sold out!" Tasha also knew that she was selling it a little expensive, but even if it was a pile of scrap iron, the value of the weapon was not the same when it was sold, and she didn't think that Wang Yue could buy a hundred, in the past ten years of the 21st century, such a large list was a national-level order.

"Well, I'll use the oil refining equipment and you to change it, do you think it's okay? You don't have to pay money to buy 500 sets of oil refining equipment this time, just get me 200 artillery pieces and 300,000 shells. Wang Yue thought about it for a while, and did not continue to bargain, after all, there are still many places that need to rely on the company and family behind Tasha in the follow-up, and it is definitely not possible to give people a little sweetness, the order of 25 million US dollars, it is estimated that in addition to the freight, it is all profit, anyway, Wang Yue does not believe that this thing has a cost in the accounts of Maozi.

"Two hundred, two hundred! Victor, you're crazy, this kind of artillery has no defense at all, and a drone can reimburse it by throwing a small bomb! Tasha was also shocked by Wang Yue, the ongoing war fully shows that this kind of artillery with no mobility, no protection, and a close range, in the current war situation, the battlefield survivability is almost 0, and it is a good thing to sell it, but it can't be pitted by Wang Yue, although this guy doesn't understand the amorous feelings, but in her heart, the status is always different.

"Don't worry, I won't let this batch of artillery appear on any battlefield, just as a strategic reserve, you know, at present, many countries are carrying out a large-scale reorganization of forces, and many people want to make themselves look stronger." Wang Yue is talking nonsense, seriously talking nonsense.

"Really? How did I not know there was such a thing? Tasha was a little confused, how could she not encounter this kind of thing as a professional arms dealer, it seems that she has to put some pressure on the small ones below, this business ability is really not good.

"Tasha, don't be so serious, let's be serious, how many shells can be transported tomorrow?" Wang Yue diverted the topic.

"The Il-76 transport plane has a limited load capacity, at most 10,000 rounds, and I will lose money if it is more, and the rest can be transported by sea, and it can be shipped to Libyb in almost a month, Victor, this is dangerous goods, and fifty dollars a round is just a freight." Tasha regretted a little, she felt that she had suffered a loss this time, fifty dollars a shell, although it was a product that had been counted as scrapped, but the price was too cheap, this was by no means the practice of arms dealers.

"Tasha, how many of these cannons do you have?" Wang Yue asked curiously, he didn't believe that Tasha would lose money, the previous batch of M-1938 122mm howitzers were being used by the Eighth Route Army, and the mute rate of the shells was as high as 3%, and it was estimated that the shells of the M1910 122mm guns could only have a higher mute rate, and it was a shame to give too high a price.

"Victor, you know, until 1941, the alliance still had more than 5,000 M1910 122mm guns in service, after the outbreak of the war, because the range was too close, a large part of the loss, the military began to transport this type of artillery to the east, replacing the new artillery assigned to the Far East, by 1944 at least 4,000 were deployed in the Far East, to the war, the military in the hands of the M-1938 122mm howitzer was not used up, so even military aid could not take its turn, It can only be mothballed, oh, at that time, the military was preparing to fight the next big war within ten years, so the mothballing is still very good.

Now, most of these guns are in the hands of our family, and it costs a lot of money just to hire someone to take care of them every year. Tasha smiled bitterly, the mothballed weapons in the Far East are about to become a joke, in the years of disintegration, those big men in the Far East sold all the advanced things, but left all these rags, saying that they want to defend the legacy of the alliance, a group of evil bureaucrats!

"Four thousand gates, two hundred million? Tasha, I hope you keep all these guns, and I'll be looking for you to buy them in the next few years. Wang Yue touched his chin, there is nothing to hesitate, it must be taken down, this year, 200 million to buy a modern artillery regiment? In comparison, 4,000 artillery pieces are simply the price of cabbage, and if you exchange it for small oil refining equipment, it is equivalent to only 150,000 yuan for a cannon, the price of an ordinary car, or a square meter of housing in a big city.

"Victor, are you honest, are you going to fight a world war? Oh my God, I knew that it must be the madmen who control the world who are going to do something about it. "Tasha's mouth at this time is estimated to be able to stuff a fist, 4,000 artillery, the country in the world with 4,000 artillery, you must be able to count it with two hands, such a big deal, you can talk to me in this broken warehouse, are you sure you don't need to go to the palace to talk to Mr. President?"

"Tasha, be normal, rest assured, this world will exist for a long time, there will be no world war, we will all die of old age." Wang Yue smiled and touched Tasha's little head, the girl's imagination was too rich.

"Victor, you don't want to say, I don't ask you, but you must understand that such a large-scale arms deal is easy to attract the attention of people with intentions, Bald Eagle is much stronger than us in Tripoli, I can only guarantee that the artillery will be delivered to the warehouse, and it can only be disassembled, of course, if you want to assemble it, you need to pay another 10,000 dollars for each one." As soon as Tasha thought of those pesky bald eagle agents, she began to worry about Wang Yue, although this guy had quietly transported the artillery from the port area before, but after all, there were only 14 guns, and if it was replaced by two hundred, it was likely that there would be attack drones coming as soon as they left the city.

"Tasha, I promise, as long as you keep your curiosity under control, no one will know about it." Wang Yue responded with a smile, and he was also beating a drum in his heart, it is not a matter to always put the material turnover location in Tripoli, once or twice is fine, if there are more, it will definitely attract the attention of people with a heart, where is there a warehouse that only enters and cannot be exited, are you insulting other people's IQ?

"You can do your best, and you have to go back to China with me next week, Mikoyan estimates that the prototype will be able to be taken out next week, and you need to go to the acceptance, are you really sure that as long as the original Lager-3 fighter?" Tasha couldn't help but reconfirm.

"Tasha, you can let them leave room for upgrades, or even make an upgrade plan, but what I want is a lag-3 fighter, which can be slightly different, but it must not exceed the technical level of that era, otherwise I will not pay anything." Wang Yue is really worried that those guys from Mikoyan will stuff a bunch of things into the plane, not to mention the high price at that time, and they will not be able to take it to time and space in 1940, so they can only be wasted, and they will not really be produced to fight drones, right?

"Well, you are a customer, you can be happy, rest assured that only pre-1940 technology will be used, and it is guaranteed to be an authentic World War II aircraft." Tasha responded very sincerely, but in her heart she didn't think so, even if it was technology before 1940, it is estimated that it was enough for Mikoyan and those guys to play, you must know that in the forties of the last century, many theories and technologies actually came out, but the designers did not dare to adopt them at that time, or some technologies were expensive at that time.

It's like aviation aluminum, when manufacturing the Lager-3 fighter, the aluminum technology of the alliance and the Bald Eagle seems to be a whole generation, and there are better ones in the laboratory of the Bald Eagle, just change it yourself, it is definitely not a violation, and then there is the armor steel, the armor steel of the alliance is always inferior to Hans's, but with the end of the war, Hans's highest level of armor steel at that time was not a secret to the alliance at all, and there is also the weight reduction technology, at that time, the most successful aircraft in weight reduction were the Japanese, And the alliance does not have that concept at all, the manufacture of the Lager-3 fighter, the weight reduction must be optimized, a series of combination punches down, hundreds of kilograms of load will come out, there may be more than that, such as the engine tuning of the aircraft, the adjustment of the pipeline route, the overall die-casting of the frame, the integration of weapon systems, etc., after all, the Lager-3 fighter is a wartime product, it is too rough. Looking around, there are so many things that can be optimized.

"By the way, didn't you just say let them design it? Why is there a prototype next week, isn't it a little fast, Tasha, you little guy didn't just get a bunch of old planes repaired to fool me? Wang Yue said with a smile, it's not that he doesn't believe in Tasha, it's too fast, the design and manufacturing process of modern aircraft is not calculated in years, just like a certain aircraft of the third brother's family, it has been almost half a century since the pre-research, and it doesn't even have combat effectiveness, of course, that's just a special case.

"Victor, you make me so sad, you have to know that it is Mikoyan, using a dozen supercomputers to design a World War II level fighter, if it is slow, it is better to shoot those designers, sad, no matter, I have to go back and drink a little, you stay here by yourself!" With that, Tasha left in a rage.
