On the outskirts of Taiyuan, the Eighth Route Army's weapons experimental range.

"Left! Yellow! What are you two doing? Come back and try it out with me! ”

"Suka, the recoil of this little thing is really strong, this is the self-defense weapon that a real man should use!"

Obviously, Comrade Cui is in a pretty good mood now, and the sad face on the previous dinner has long disappeared without a trace.

The reason for this is very simple, the first weapon that the Eighth Route Army came up with is so powerful, so wouldn't the next trip be even more colorful.

The deeper the allyship, the greater the assistance, and the advantage is mine!

Full of anticipation, the army general with a particularly long name put down the Ma35 in his hand, and then followed the guards of the deputy general staff to the next target position.

"Comrade, the fully automatic weapon in front of you is called Mas38, and its greatest advantage is the rate of fire and portability."

"The best combat distance of this firearm is 100 meters, and if it exceeds 200 meters, you can only kill the enemy by fate. The magazines on the table are at your disposal, and I will replenish your ammunition in a timely manner. ”

As soon as these words came out, Lao Maozi's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had seen some peerless treasure.

After all, in the field of submachine guns, if he Lao Cui claimed to be second, then no one in the entire northern army circle would dare to call him first.

Without him, this is a valuable experience gained in exchange for the post of commander of the group army. If you've been tortured by the Finns with somi, you can have that confidence.

"Okay, then it's troublesome little comrade."

After finishing speaking, Lao Cui grabbed Mas38 on the table without saying a word.

This submachine gun, which was already slightly petite, looked like a beautifully crafted toy in his hand, and it used the feeling of being slightly rushed in later generations.

Open the fuse, aim at the target, and pull the trigger.

Da da da.

As the gun shook and the sound of the gun echoed over the range.

After playing a shuttle, Lao Cui was obviously not happy, he first groped for a new magazine by himself, and then came to a dual-wielding strafing without a teacher.

At the end of a sudden round, Lao Maozi said excitedly to the Yellow River who had just returned:

"Yellow! This submachine gun is simply the most perfect weapon! Two years ago, in the Winter War, if my troops had been equipped with it, they would have been able to kill Mannerheim. ”

"Honestly, I can't figure out one thing."

"Why did the French, who had such advanced infantry equipment, surrender voluntarily after holding out for only 42 days?"

The sudden milk method behavior made Huang He subconsciously show the exclusive smile of the fun people.

The fly in the ointment is that it is a pity that Lao Dai has returned to North Africa ahead of schedule, otherwise he and the deputy general staff would have been able to observe a hand-to-hand fight between senior officers at close range.

Facing the eager eyes of his allies, Huang added in a serious and responsible manner:

"The Mas38 is a good gun, and it's even better than the Mp40 on paper."

"However, the specific relationship between the two can only be seen on the battlefield."

"As far as I know, due to the relocation of the factory to the east and performance reasons, your self-developed submachine gun should not be mass-produced for the time being, maybe this French product is a good emergency choice."

Bobosha, the star of World War II, was a weapon that only exploded in 1942.

At the current point in time, mass production has not even begun in the north.

What's more, when Lao Cui came to the Republic of China, this weapon had not yet passed the review of the National Defense Committee, which is why he was excited to see Mas38.

"Okay, what you just said, I will definitely give feedback to my superiors. Huang, your internationalist spirit is incomparably bright. ”

After humbly accepting the advice of his allies, Lao Cui put down the submachine gun in his hand, and then walked to the next wave of target positions.

Compared with distinctive pistols and submachine guns, Lao Maozi seems to be less interested in French rifles and light and heavy machine guns.

Although the MAS36 is a collection of hundreds of experts, it even has the strength to compete for the title of the strongest bolt-action rifle in World War II. But the north side was heavily armed with Mosin Nagant, and the notch in the rifle was not too large.

As a last resort, they will certainly not be equipped with a standard weapon of a different caliber.

FM24/29 is lost in the density and persistence of firepower, and the delivery volume of the large plate chicken is not an ordinary pervert, that is the weapon that is most in line with the national style of fighting.

In terms of heavy machine guns, the old Maozi always preferred the water-cooled Makqin.

After all, on the cold eastern front of Europe, the M1930 and 1940 firepower, which can be directly injected with ice and snow, are more durable.

After experiencing a complete set of French-style basic infantry equipment, Lao Cui first rubbed his somewhat sour shoulders and tiger mouth, and then said tentatively to Huang He:

"Huang, do you have any equipment in the Eighth Route Army to deal with armored troops?"

"You should know that De III deployed four Panzer Army groups on the battlefield on the Eastern Front. Those damned tanks, which went on a rampage in positional battles and even street battles, inflicted great losses on their comrades. ”

"We urgently need anti-tank equipment, both individual and heavy."

Thanks to the excellent secrecy system, the outside forces do not know much about the specific equipment of the Eighth Route Army.

The devils who are often beaten have a set of detailed information, but they will definitely not kindly share it with the Maozi.

Don't look at the neutrality treaty signed by the two at the beginning of last year, but there are not a few intrigues in it, so let's have fun without stabbing the knife.

So from Lao Cui's point of view, the Eighth Route Army has always used the supermodel's air force to deal with the armored troops of the book, which is why he used a tentative tone.

The allies' inquiries made Huang He smile evilly if his plan had succeeded.

Even the deputy general staff, who is known for his steadiness on weekdays, can't suppress the joy in his heart at this moment.

It's coming, it's coming, and the fish is finally biting!

"Lao Cui, you have come to the right place this time! Our Eighth Route Army has a total of three mature anti-tank equipment, which can help your major armies break the situation. ”

"The first, the Type 1939 40-mm bazooka!"

"This is our individual anti-tank equipment independently developed by the Bureau of Weapons Experiment and Research, and the name of the foreign trade version is RPG!"

After hearing the name RPG, Comrade Cui's expression was a little dazed, and this scene was very similar to the scene where the British engineer saw Spitfire, Typhoon and handsome soldiers at Wusu Airport.

At this moment, it was as if a voice whispered in his ear, constantly emphasizing that this was supposed to be his own weapon.

Seeing his ally's reaction, Huang He struggled to hold back a smile.

Under the signal of the eyes of the deputy general staff, he first took out the canister, and then began to twist the super-caliber rocket in front of Lao Maozi.

"Here, carry it."

"The use of the 40mm bazooka is very simple, just carry it on your shoulder and aim at the target and pull the trigger."

"See the oil drum a hundred meters away? That's the first goal of this test. I'll teach you how to use the sight, and you can try to feel it first. ”

Hearing this, Lao Cui hurriedly cleared the distracting thoughts in his mind. Under the careful instruction of Huang He, he carefully completed the aim and pulled the trigger of 40 fires.

Rumble!

I saw a burst of fire coming out of the tail of the canister, and the shells rushed out of the white smoke and flew straight towards the target.

With a deafening explosion, a large fireball rose from the distant target position, and the wreckage of the oil drum flew all over the sky.

"Sukka! What a monster this is! ”

Even though Lao Cui was mentally prepared in advance, the destructive power of the 40 fire still scared him.

That's right, the witty Yellow River filled the oil barrel with gasoline!

Otherwise, with a single armor-piercing bullet, it will definitely not be able to achieve such a shocking effect.

This is not that Huang deliberately deceived consumers and engaged in unscrupulous false propaganda in order to sell his own weapons. If you can hit the tank's fuel tank, the damage will only be stronger.

Looking at the frightened allies, Huang He cleared his throat and introduced:

"Although the effective range of our 40 mm rocket launcher is not far, its armor-piercing effect at a distance of 100~150 meters is a full 200 mm."

"This means that as long as your infantry can successfully hit the target, the armor of the Nade No. 3 or 4 tank will definitely be broken with a single touch."

"Even if the enemy develops a more advanced and more protective heavy tank in the future, the performance of 40 fires will not disappoint you."

As soon as these words came out, there seemed to be a raging flame burning in Lao Cui's eyes.

Judging from the experience he has just used, this individual anti-tank equipment called a 40mm rocket launcher is only one meter three long and weighs five kilograms at most.

In this way, it only takes two skilled shooters to perfectly exert its power.

At the present stage, on the battlefield of the Eastern Front, tragic street battles are breaking out every day, and it is not too much to say that every inch of land must be contested.

Once the infantry is equipped with 40mm rocket launchers in batches, Nadesan's four armored clusters will inevitably fall into the swamp of the sea of people, and finally it will be impossible to escape the fate of destruction.

After thinking about it seriously, Lao Cui said to the Yellow River with a serious face:

"Davaris, this individual anti-tank weapon is exactly what we desperately need. While it would be presumptuous to say this, I hope that you will share the drawings while you provide assistance. ”

"We are willing to pay a reasonable price for this."

As a native of Dabie Mountain, the Yellow River naturally will not do loss-making business, he helplessly spread his hands and said:

"I'm just a scientist with no real power, and it's not my turn to make decisions in this kind of decision-making matter. You'll have to talk to someone about the details of the Lend-Lease Act. ”

After receiving the signal, the deputy general staff officer on the side rescued the scene in time and diverted the topic.

"Lao Cui, let's go back to the headquarters to discuss the specific agreement. Let's take a look at the next weapons, maybe there's something you like better. ”

At the same time, Lao Maozi realized that he had lost his temper.

Leaving aside whether the request was inappropriate, it would be a big mistake to expose your true thoughts too early, which would make you passive in the rest of the negotiations.

I'm anxious, but I can't eat hot tofu.

"Good!"

"Then we'll talk about it later."

While chatting, the three of them had already arrived at the next stage of the shooting range. Compared with the previous petty fights, this is a hard dish prepared by the Yellow River for Lao Cui.

The first weapon that catches your eye is the Hatch Chase SA34, which has repeatedly performed miraculous feats in the North China battlefield.

In today's world, apart from the Eighth Route Army, only Vichy France and the German III are equipped with this anti-tank gun.

After Operation Barbarossa began, Mustache issued the captured 99 new weapons to his client state.

In the face of the weakly armored T26 and BT series, this small French toothpick played a dominant-level performance, which once made the Maozi armored troops miserable.

At the end of the test firing, Lao Cui gave SA34 a very high evaluation.

Looking at the unfinished allies, Huang He pointed to another big pipe that was on standby and said:

"This 47 mm caliber anti-tank gun is called Mle SA37. Its performance is more than enough for your needs at this stage, and it is more than enough to deal with tanks 3 and 4. ”

The unfamiliar weapon in front of him made Lao Cui fall into deep thought.

At his level, it is basically impossible for Europe to have standard equipment that he does not know.

In this way, there is only one possibility left, and this cannon is most likely the killer weapon prepared by France for the decisive battle.

Huang He didn't deliberately sell Guanzi, he took out a shell from the ammunition box and continued:

"In my opinion, the SA37 has few other drawbacks other than weight. It weighs 1.1 tonnes and requires a vehicle to tow it on the march. ”

"As an anti-tank gun with French roots, the height of this thing is only 1.2 meters after removing the cannon shield, which is very suitable for squatting in the pit to pump cold and shoot black guns."

"In terms of firepower, the theoretical rate of fire is 20 rounds per minute. In the face of honest armor, it can penetrate 106 mm in 100 meters, 89 mm in 500 meters, and 72 mm in 1,000 meters. ”

That's right, the Mle SA37 is a new piece of equipment unlocked by the Yellow River through the scientific research slot, and it can even be said that it is the first weapon dedicated to foreign trade.

After all, the scrap copper and rotten iron of the books are not worth the Eighth Route Army's dispatch of this kind of big killing weapon.

As a product provided by Awakening Brave Tiger, the system repaired the original defective retarding device, thereby improving the accuracy of the SA37's shelling at long distances.

In order to strengthen the penetration, the French original made use of the traditional art to increase the charge of the cannonball.

As a result, the SA37 has a large tail flame when firing, which not only blocks the gunners' field of vision, but also exposes the position of their own position.

The intimate system is directly equipped with a matching muzzle flame suppressor, which eliminates the hidden danger once and for all.

Looking at such ungodly paper data, Lao Cui said in disbelief:

"How can such a powerful anti-tank gun be unknown? You're not kidding me. ”

Faced with the doubts of his allies, the Yellow River could only be forced to milk the law.

"At the beginning, the French Army, in order to prevent the German San from making corresponding armor upgrades before the war, always regarded this artillery as a secret weapon at the bottom of the box."

"It's just that their secrecy is so good that they not only hide from the enemy but also from their own people."

"Except for some elite troops, most of the French themselves are unaware of the existence of the SA37, let alone you, an outsider."

I saved 2700, and if I write quickly, I will write ten thousand today, and if I write slowly, I will write tomorrow.

This SA37 is the cannon of the Lorraine 37L, which is more fierce than the 50 mm of the German three.
