Chapter 1120

"Emperor, this is the first tank of the Empire. "

at the school yard in Tuoshan gully outside Qingzhou City, Xiao Ming saw the tank in Lin Wentao's mouth.

The whole body of the tank is painted in silver gray, and its appearance is similar to that of the tanks in the first World War and the Second World War, but there is not much difference in the appearance of the tanks in the Second World War.

After all, they have mature information, and they don't need Lin Wentao to make a detour on the road of developing tanks.

"What's the tank data like?" Xiao Ming asked.

Lin Wentao didn't dare to hide this problem, because he knew Xiao Ming was better than him, so he said: "the tank is 5.68 meters long, 2.43 meters wide, 2.29 meters high, and weighs 13 tons. It can carry five people, and the highest speed can reach 53 kilometers per hour. It can directly cross a 1.8 meter wide trench. The weapon on the tank is a 45mm tank gun and ammunition One hundred rounds, equipped with two machine guns, with a reserve of 2500 bullets. As for tank armor, the front armor is 22mm, and the side and back armor is 13mm. "

Xiao Ming nodded slightly. This data has gone against the sky in this era. European muskets can't penetrate the armor of such tanks at all.

If such tanks were put into the battlefield, Europeans would no longer be able to use trenches to block imperial attacks.

After patting the iron guy, Xiao Ming asked, "does it have a name? "

" in my opinion, the tank is bound to be more powerful than the black bear in the forest in the future war, so I named him bear King tank. "

"Bear King tank?" Xiao Ming said with a smile: "in the forest, even tigers should be afraid of blind bears. This is a good name. It's called Bear King tank."

Lin Wentao can't help but feel happy. Now the naming of equipment has been handed down to researchers, who can name their own equipment.

Cui Shangan also followed him. After all, he was the chief of the general staff, and he had to deal with the equipment.

When Xiao Ming and Lin Wentao were chatting and laughing, Cui Shangan had been a fool for a long time. In his opinion, this kind of weapon is a nightmare for the enemy on the battlefield.

As long as the tank into the war, the soldiers of the Empire will be invincible.

"Lin Wentao, what's the output of this tank?" Cui Shangan asked.

"At present, we only have two production lines, and there is no problem with 20 cars a month."

”Twenty. "Cui Shangan's eyes are shining. He said to Xiao Ming," who is the emperor going to equip this kind of equipment first? "

" Qi Guangyi. " Xiao Ming said with little thought.

Cui Shangan was stunned for a moment. He said, "the emperor is joking. Doesn't Qi Guangyi have cavalry? They still need tanks? "

" can't you see that a tank is a promoted cavalry, but the horse that the cavalry sits on is replaced by this iron guy. " Xiao Ming said.

For him, it is Qi Guangyi who needs tanks at present. First, Qi Guangyi's northwest military region directly fights with the Russian Cossack cavalry.

Secondly, the jurisdiction of the northwest military region is smooth, which is very suitable for large-scale tank operations.

Now he could imagine cosat cavalry chopping tanks with machetes.

Therefore, once the northwest army is equipped with this weapon, it will completely end the tsarist Russia's covet of Central Asia, and at the same time, the Empire will be able to play a greater influence in Central Asia.

"If you think about it, what the emperor said is that the tank is a cavalry? "Cui Shang'an laughed and his eyes were full of envy.

Now he thought of leading the army to fight.

"Don't be surprised, the Empire will have more incredible equipment in the future." Xiao Ming said lightly.

Next, they watched the tank drill together. Under the control of the driver, the tracked tank could shuttle freely in all kinds of terrain.

The powerful firepower of 45mm artillery and machine gun makes the tank like a moving firepower fortress.

"Congratulations to the emperor. With this sharp weapon, the emperor's ambition and hegemony will be one step closer." Qian Dafu's eyes narrowed into a line with a smile.

He knew that Xiao Ming still had too many ideals to realize, some of which could not be achieved only by peaceful means.

Xiao Ming laughs. Qian Dafu says that he is in the middle of his heart. Just now, he listed out the strategies to be realized.

With tanks as a weapon of war, it will be easier for him to achieve his goal.

Seeing that Xiao Ming was so happy, everyone laughed.

Cui Shangan said happily: "emperor, now the military industry of the Empire has gone further. Those obsolete equipment of the empire can be sold as much as you like. It is only with the money earned that you can continue to invest in the military industry to make more powerful weapons. "

Cui Shangan was completely convinced by the monsters such as tanks.

"There's already a buyer waiting for our weapons? When you go back, you can concentrate the weapons eliminated from the army warehouse and transport them to Dengzhou. As soon as the Persian envoys arrive, these weapons can be sold. " Xiao Ming said confidently.

Cui Shang'an understood and showed a clear look.

……

Persia, texiphon.Gambis dropped a copy of the war report that had just been delivered on the ground.

”Lost, lost again, a bunch of rubbish. If you lose again, Osman will fight to taixifeng. "Said Gambis angrily to Alsace.

Half a year ago, the balance of power between Persia and the Ottoman Empire was maintained, but it was broken three months ago.

Continuous failures made Gambis unable to keep calm any longer.

Arsasi picked up the war report from the ground and said: "Your Majesty, according to the intelligence, there are British cast iron guns and excellent muskets in the Ottoman Empire, and their troops seem to have received professional training. That's why we lost the war, but it's not too bad now. We just lost some border areas in the northeast, and now it's the end of the war It's time to ask the eastern empire for help. The West has chosen to support Ottoman. I believe the eastern empire will support us. "

Gambis frowned. In fact, he didn't want to talk to the eastern empire easily, because now he regretted letting the eastern empire exploit their oil for free.

Because in his view, if he sold the oil to the eastern empire, he would make a lot of wealth. With money and the production line of muskets, he would be able to defeat Osman and further control the oil.

But now his calculation is bankrupt. If he continues to insist on not asking the Empire for help, Persia will soon be defeated by Ottoman.

"When will our production line be able to manufacture muskets on a large scale? "Asked Gambis, somewhat reluctantly.

Arsasi said helplessly: "Your Majesty, even if the production line can produce, the steel, gunpowder, bullets and other accessories needed for the muskets also need to be purchased from the Empire. We can't produce gunpowder of the same quality as the Empire. "

Gambis covered his face in despair. He thought that it would be enough for the Empire to help him build a weapons production line, but he thought it was too simple. Without a perfect industrial system like the Empire, Persia would not be able to play.

"It seems that we have to purchase a batch of weapons urgently from the Empire." Said Gambis sadly.
