Chapter 313: The Infantry Chariot is used first, and it has to go further
"Tanks?"
Ye Lie was quite curious.
"Your Majesty, it's the kind of big guy whose steel plate is thicker than this kind of car, and it is estimated that it takes three engines to drive it!"
The driver explained.
This driver is a person trained in the research institute, and he is considered a secret agent.
Only the Secret Guards know.
"Big guy?"
Ye Lie was a little excited, "Is it a turret that you want to install that kind of artillery?" ”
"The caliber may be a little smaller, and the cannon must be fierce enough!"
Ye Yu explained, "Three engines may not be enough, and the suspension system needs to be improved. ”
"Suspension?"
Ye Lie has come across a lot of "professional words" today.
"The track has to support such a big thing, this middle thing is called a suspension, improve the suspension, the tonnage can be bigger, and then there will be a tank."
Ye Yu opened his mouth and said, "Although it should not be suitable for large-scale production now, but in the future, at least on the battlefield of the northern prairie, if Moxico dares to fight, let him see what is called a steel torrent!" ”
When he spoke, he couldn't help but show some pride!
After a while, their prototype vehicle finally returned to the backyard of the Institute
"Alright, here, let's stop."
Ye Yu said, patting Ye Lie's shoulder, "I still have to do some other modifications." ”
"What modification? Isn't it just to install some seats and add some places to put ammunition? ”
Ye Lie glanced around, this chariot already had enough combat power.
"Didn't I say I had to add a few more machine guns when I went there?"
"Why did you shoot so well, you forgot?"
Ye Yu said and smiled.
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
Ye Lie nodded, and then got out of the car.
After the driver turns off the engine, he extinguishes the charcoal fire by plugging the stove and waits for it to cool down completely.
In fact, Ye Yu has not completely solved the last problem.
Fuel is already sufficient, but if it takes a while for the charcoal fire to burn from the beginning to the time it heats up, it will be a bit wasteful if the charcoal fire is left burning all the time.
Of course, even if this happens, it can already meet the current state of operation.
Small-caliber semi-automatic cannons are also capable of meeting infantry operations.
"When it's cool, take the carbon out and we'll do the final modifications."
"Engineer, come and check the status of the vehicle."
Ye Yu saw that Ye Lie was gone, and he began to get busy.
Of course, Ye Lie is also quite busy here.
It's just that he went from being the only decision-maker to being a report-reader.
Ye Yu's method of responsibility system liberated Ye Lie's hands.
Many things can be solved by relying on the flexibility of officials.
And he just has to see how well this thing is done.
If not, do it yourself.
Compared to the fact that everything is decided by him, it is much easier.
Although Ye Lie sat in the study and looked at the report, he gave some instructions at the same time, either as a reward or as a need for improvement.
But his heart was deeply attracted by the jackal chariot developed by Ye Yu.
And not only artillery, but also machine guns.
How terrifying can such an iron-clad combat power be?
And he has seen that the space in this entire chariot is not small, not only can you put all kinds of ammunition and food and grass, but even some weapons!
It made him even more excited!
A mobile arsenal!
Indeed, it can now be used as his "royal car"!
When the time comes, just this one is enough to boost the morale of the soldiers on the frontal battlefield!
Thinking so, he didn't even finish reading the minister's report, and it was dark.
And Ye Yu is still busy.
He wants to be the best of the Jackal Infantry Chariot.
At the same time, it is also to develop more things for the future.
Of course, the general stuff is already ready.
"Your Highness, the machine gun emplacements have begun to be installed, and it is the co-pilot one on the front, and then there is a coaxial heavy machine gun in the upper turret."
One of the engineers came to report.
This chariot was directly established by Ye Yu, and all the people involved, whether they were warlocks or craftsmen, were collectively referred to as engineers.
"Is there a way, on the side, to add a little firepower?"
Ye Yu thought about it and said, "For example, add a firing port that can extend out of a submachine gun or rifle?" ”
He looked at the design of the chariot and kept thinking about the battle.
The main thing was the question of the cavalry.
The speed of the cavalry is not slow, if it is a small-caliber rapid-fire gun on the front, it is not a big problem, but what about the side?
When they get closer, they can quickly go around to the side, and even if they turn the rudder and smoke, they may not be able to keep up.
If you can open it on the side......
He thought about it, the driver, the co-pilot, the commander, the gunner, and a loader.
It is difficult for these people to guarantee a full view of the periphery in an iron shell.
"Your Highness, why don't you add a machine gun to the location of the battery?"
"A machine gun that allows a soldier to operate from the outside?"
An engineer, a craftsman-turned-engineer, asked.
"Yes, this can be increased, and the engine protection work in the rear needs to be done."
Ye Yu said, "In this way, add a guardrail on both sides, and let the soldiers sit on it when they are fine." ”
He was already thinking about actual combat.
The guardrail can guarantee to a certain extent that the soldiers above have cover to a certain extent.
Moreover, the soldier was able to get on the chariot and maneuvered.
It was discussed for a long time.
Ye Lie on the other side was also late.
Therefore, it was not until the afternoon of the next day that Ye Lie woke up.
Lying on the bed too tired, Ye Lie's mind was still lingering on the jackal chariot.
Finally, he couldn't help it and walked directly towards the research institute.
However, he did not see the Jackal Chariot in the backyard of the Institute.
So he walked towards the institute.
In the year and a half after the merger, he was busy improving the development of Jiaguo, and he had not really gone to the research institute to see it.
The entire research institute is basically built on a mountain.
There were only a few tall buildings on the edge of the backyard, and Guangye Lie looked like it was about three floors.
Looking up the mountain, he could see all sorts of hidden edges and corners.
Ye Lie estimated that Ye Yu should have dug this mountain almost as far as he could.
Slowly walking in, he saw various researchers coming and going with papers.
"See Your Majesty!"
The soldiers at the door saluted Ye Lie.
Of course, the guards of the research institute are all undertaken by secret guards.
"What about Ye Yu?"
"Your Majesty, Your Highness is in the second garage."
The guard said, walked to the side, found an engineer and took Ye Lie to the second garage.
It didn't take long for Ye Lie to come to the door of the second garage.
The space is very spacious, almost the size of half a palace in his palace.
The door was open, and Ye Lie saw what was inside.
An infantry chariot is completely different from the infantry chariot he saw yesterday!
Ye Yu was leading the engineers to discuss modifications around the infantry chariot.
"Ye Yu."
Ye Lie stepped forward as he spoke.
