Anti-Japanese War: Red Alert Base, I am the Power

"The Vulcan Weapons Company from the ancient Eastern country displayed an extremely advanced tank?"

When Guderian's telegram was sent back to the Ministry of National Defense, several Wehrmacht leaders looked at each other in bewilderment.

"China in the East is not very backward, with only a few hundred thousand tons of steel production, and they still purchase weapons from us.

How could they develop such advanced tanks

? Is Guderian crazy about tanks?"

One of the younger lieutenant generals retorted

"The situation in China has changed a lot this year.

A new warlord has risen in their country.

This warlord has a lot of advanced weapons and equipment. They even defeated the Japanese and annihilated hundreds of thousands of their troops.

And this Vulcan weapon is their enterprise"

"Hearing you say that, I remembered a report I read before. If it is true, then it is worth taking a look.

Guderian is a very stable man, and we should believe him."

Soon this group of Wehrmacht bigwigs reached a consensus.

The general who helped speak was the current commander of the First Army Group of the German Wehrmacht, General of Infantry-Rundstedt.

After hearing about this, the mustache was also very interested.

So the group took the train to Hamburg the next day.

Today's warehouse is particularly lively.

After everyone arrived, their eyes were all focused on today's protagonist.

The Type 4 G tank parked in the test site.

To say that the country has the most profound impression of tanks, it is undoubtedly Germany.

During World War I, the British developed the tank. A new type of war weapon.

And it changed the war situation to a certain extent.

At that time, many people were actually able to realize that tanks could play an extremely important role in war.

So the Allies would also prohibit them from researching tanks.

But with the subsequent development of science and technology, the performance of tanks has become more and more advanced.

However, the exploration of the use of tanks has gone astray.

Basically, this weapon is still regarded as an infantry support weapon.

But the mustache understands that it is definitely not a supporting role for the infantry, but should be the protagonist on the battlefield.

He agrees with Guderian's ideas very much.

That's why he chose to reuse him.

"Is this your tank?"

Even the man with a mustache was shocked when he saw the Panzer IV G tank.

This was the largest tank in terms of tonnage, size and the longest gun barrel he had ever seen.

For this painter, the bigger the weapon, the better.

The Maus and Gustav were born under this concept.

At this moment, he was convinced in his heart that this was the tank they needed at the moment.

Min Xiuyuan said,"Yes, this is an advanced tank we specially customized for your army.

In terms of performance, no tank in the entire Western world can match it."

The man with a mustache didn't know much about weapons.

Instead, he looked at Guderian.

Guderian nodded and said,"That's right. I've learned about England's MK series, Greyhounds and France's Renault tanks.

Their tanks are far from comparable to it in performance."

Hearing this, the man with a mustache nodded.

"Let's drive it and see how powerful it is.

This is the highlight of today.

No matter how beautiful the appearance is, it's useless until you drive it.

"boom......"

The 300-horsepower gasoline engine of the Type 4 G tank roared, and white smoke continued to come out of the tail nozzle.

As the flag was waved, the more than 20-ton tank rushed out directly.

It drove on a muddy and bumpy dirt road.

This is a road designed to simulate a muddy road on rainy days.

Due to limited space, the distance is only about 200 meters.

The suspension system of the Type 4 tank is still very good.

It still walked down this muddy road very smoothly.

There was no sinking, and the speed was not slow.

This made everyone present brighten their eyes.

Judging from the performance of the target, it is still a bit interesting.

Next, the tank began to drive on the uneven simulated field.

It also showed its good passability.

This is a tank designed by Germany itself, so it will naturally not fall behind.

Then there was a display of firepower.

Steel targets were erected one after another at distances of 500 meters, 800 meters, 1000 meters, and 1200 meters.

The thickness of these steel targets is the same 50 mm from near to far.

The 4G tank uses a 43-caliber KwK40 tank gun, which has excellent armor-piercing performance.

In conjunction with Germany's excellent sighting system, the results are naturally not bad.

All 4 hits, and the targets were all penetrated.

Although it was just a small display, the effect achieved was quite amazing.

Almost everyone present was impressed by this tank.

After all, this tank is a product of 40 years later.

For Germany, which is eager to own a tank, the temptation is extraordinary.

What's more, it is such an advanced tank.

"This is the tank we need..～"

Seeing Guderian's expectant expression, the man with a mustache nodded.

"This is indeed the tank we need, but I need to know its price.

However, we will not purchase too many in advance. You should know our current situation."

The little mustache has not yet torn up the Treaty of Versailles.

This treaty is like a shackle that is firmly on their heads.

After these words came out, even Guderian's eyes dimmed.

Min Xiuyuan certainly knew this situation, but he also had a solution.

"In fact, we may be able to cooperate in the military field.

For example, if you purchase this tank, you can go to our country to train soldiers and officers.

When the situation becomes clear, you can ship them back."

Hearing this, the eyes of the mustache and Guderian brightened a lot.

This is indeed a solution.

In fact, they have already done so.

For example, their air force is trained in the territory of the bear, of course, it has also paid some price.

In addition, their submarines are also built in the Netherlands under other names.

This proposal is indeed good.

After getting the approval of the mustache, the two sides began to discuss it intensively.

Guderian was very positive about this matter.

He even brought in a colonel he admired, his name was Manstein. (To read the exciting novels, just go to Faloo Novel Network!)

In these days, he also learned about China, which is thousands of miles away, through various news and fragmented information.

This is indeed a backward country, and it is still in a state of warlord separatism.

But there is a mysterious force in this country.

For example, the time for a large-scale airborne landing over 2,000 kilometers that shocked the West was created by them.

And it is said that this mysterious force is also equipped with many advanced tanks and armored vehicles.[]

This also aroused his strong interest. He was looking forward to the upcoming trip to the East.

Manstein looked indifferent and was not very interested in it.

Soon the two sides determined the price of the Panzer IV.

The price was still as expensive as ever, with a single price of up to 20,000 US dollars.

The Ministry of National Defense's Ordnance Bureau decided to purchase 100 vehicles in advance.

They will train at the venue provided by China.

This price is actually very high.

You should know that the purchase price of the Panzer IV G type is only 28,000 US dollars.

This time is after 1940.

It is only 1933 now.

The price of 20,000 US dollars per vehicle can be said to be slightly higher than expected.

And this is definitely not the first batch.

When Germany expands its armaments next year, it will be the outbreak period of orders.

Jiang Fan is busy at the moment.

He is now busy with how to spend money.

Ares Group and Xu Zhiqiang have brought him a lot of development funds.

It doesn't make much sense to keep the money in hand.

It has to circulate.

So Jiang Fan decisively invested these funds in the fields of people's livelihood economy, infrastructure, industrial construction, education, agriculture, etc.

The first of which is education.

The Minister of Education, Zhu Kezhen, whom Jiang Fan had always wanted, finally arrived.

Although he took office as the president of the Meteorological Society, his resignation did not cause any waves in Jinling.

Zhu Kezhen arrived in Jinzhou very smoothly.

As soon as they met, Jiang Fan began to make all kinds of promises....No, it should be called a dream. For example , eliminating illiteracy, building world-renowned colleges and universities, and implementing 12-year compulsory education....Zhu Kezhen was quite convinced.

Just based on Jiang Fan's emphasis on education, these words are definitely not bragging.

And Jiang Fan did not brag.

When the money arrived, he began to plan for nine-year compulsory education.

Zhu Kezhen certainly agreed with this.

Nine-year compulsory education, five years in primary school and four years in middle school.

Among them, middle school includes junior high school and high school.

It can greatly reduce the people's education expenses.

This is definitely a major event for the benefit of the people.

Let many children of poor people be able to go to school.

This also makes Zhu Kezhen admire Jiang Fan's courage very much.

This is not a small expense.

He has never seen a warlord in the interior who would attach so much importance to education.

At this time, he even felt that it would be a very good choice to let Jiang Fan be the master of the world.

In addition to nine-year compulsory education.

Jiang Fan also plans to invest in the construction of two university towns in Shenyang and Harbin.

One-third of the universities in the Northeast will be relocated to these two university towns.

Especially those top universities.

The reason for doing this is also very simple.

It can better concentrate educational resources and scientific research resources.

After all, both Shenyang and Harbin are places with large populations, convenient transportation and good economic development.

There are also two major projects for the simplification of traditional Chinese characters and the phoneticization of Chinese characters.

Zhu Kezhen also agreed very much.

He even recommended a lot of talents to Jiang Fan.

These people are all well-known talents in the field of education.

After spending money in the field of education.

Jiang Fan considered spending money on industrial construction.

The main investment is still in the basic industrial field and some high-end industrial fields.

The basic industrial field includes coal, oil, electricity, steel, non-ferrous metals, chemicals, machinery, textiles, materials, etc. There are more than 200 basic industrial projects invested alone.

There are also some investments in the high-end industrial field.

Among them, the main ones are industrial mother machines, high-precision machine tool processing, large shipyards, large (Wang Wang Zhao) machinery manufacturing plants, etc.

Of course, this is only a preliminary investment, and a large amount of funds will enter these fields in the future.

With the existence of the Red Alert Base, Jiang Fan also has the qualifications and confidence to help the seedlings grow.

Then there is the field of infrastructure.

The focus is mainly on roads and railways.

The roads are divided into national highways and provincial highways.

National highways must connect the main cities in each province.

And the width is also required, basically more than four lanes.

And it is not an ordinary dirt road or gravel road, but a cement road.

The second is the provincial highway.

Provincial roads are required to connect all municipal areas in the province.

This goal must be completed within two years.

More than 500,000 people have been invested in manpower alone.

There are more than 300,000 people responsible for railway construction.

In addition to replacing all the original main line railway tracks with standard tracks,

Jiang Fan also plans to build several new railways.

It mainly connects Rehe and Chahar. After the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army is dealt with, this railway will be incorporated into the Pingsui Railway.

Jiang Fan also put forward a hard requirement to the railway department.

The length of new railways built each year must be more than 2,000 kilometers.

With many mechanized construction equipment and dozens of���Workers and sufficient investment.

To be honest, two thousand kilometers is not very difficult.

If the railway network in the Northeast is improved, all major cities will be connected.

It is also very beneficial to the economic development of various places.

It is also conducive to the mobilization of troops.

The second is the construction of civil aviation airports.
