Arc of Gunfire

In the next few days, Wang Zhong was paying attention to see if anyone was interested in trying out the other two tank indicators he proposed.

As a result, by August 17, no one had heard of any design team led by a designer who was planning to take over.

This made Wang Zhong want to do it himself, but he knew that he was a half-baked person and had no way to perfectly copy the design of the Earth. He also didn't understand design and drawing, so he could only propose various indicators when an engineer took over.

Until Kejing Engineer came up with the design of the second version of the rocket assault gun, Wang Zhong didn't hear that anyone wanted to challenge the two tank plans he proposed.

But new tanks must be built. Now the vortex can only play defense and will be restrained by Proson's favorite smoke bombs. Once covered by smoke, it can only use mobility to escape.

When Proson takes out the next-generation medium tanks such as the Leopard or even the E50, the disadvantage of the vortex without a turret will be infinitely magnified.

Moreover, when the Leopard comes out, it will be almost time for the Ante Army to attack, and the vortex is very weak when attacking.

Tank destroyers such as SU76 and SU85 can raise the elevation angle of the gun to use as self-propelled artillery, so they are not completely useless in attack.

When the SU100 vortex was designed, in order to simplify the elevation machine, the elevation angle was limited to less than 20 degrees, so it could not be used as a self-propelled artillery at all, and it was really useless in attack.

So Wang Zhong was anxious, and finally he had no choice but to find his good sister Olga and ask her to issue an edict to force several tank design institutes to come up with plans.

However, the departure time was approaching, and Wang Zhongshi could not wait for the design to be produced.

He could only set a separate review time for the three projects he proposed, and wait until he came back, so the development time of these projects was more abundant than other projects, and it was more likely to come up with a good plan.

These three projects are: rocket assault guns for street fighting, 30-ton medium tanks with egg-shaped turrets, and 50-ton heavy breakthrough tanks.

The 40-ton medium tank project designed on the basis of T34 was directly handed over to the vice chairman of the review committee for review as a replacement plan for T34.

Wang Zhong thought that this 40-ton tank was the simplest, and it could be solved by adding armor to the T34, and it would not cause any problems if it was handed over to others.

After arranging these tasks, Wang Zhong went to the city defense headquarters to inspect the rest and recuperation of the First Mobile Army and arranged his old troops.

By August 17, when the child was one week old, Wang Zhong was fully prepared to set off.

As soon as he got up that morning, someone knocked on the bedroom door.

Wang Zhong went to open the door and found that it was Mikhail. The old housekeeper was holding a telegram in his hand: "Sir, a telegram from General Pavlov."

"Got it." Wang Zhong took the telegram, opened it and saw a short sentence on it, "Come quickly, I'm waiting for you."

Wang Zhong shook his head: "My child was born a week ago, and he didn't even say congratulations."

Mikhail: "This is a responsible performance, General."

"I know." Wang Zhong handed the telegram to the housekeeper, "File this, you may publish something like "Rokossov's Wartime Documents" in the future, which will become historical materials."

"Okay, General." Mikhail After a pause, "Are you ready to leave today? Are you going to start packing?"

"Yes, help me pack my luggage - Nellie should be enough for this. Also, has the adjutant who replaced Vasily arrived?"

Mikhail: "He arrived yesterday. I arranged for him to stay in the guest room."

Wang Zhong: "Tell him to wait for me in the office. I guess the documents I need to deal with today have arrived."

"It was delivered at five in the morning."

"I knew it! Take breakfast to the study. I'll eat while I read the documents."

————

When Wang Zhong entered the study, he saw a lieutenant with light blond curly hair sitting on the sofa.

Seeing Wang Zhong coming in, the lieutenant immediately stood up and saluted: "General! I am your new adjutant Yakov Konstantinovich Bulatov. I am here to replace Captain Vasily who is going to the military school for training."

Wang Zhong saluted back: "Hello Yakov, what major did you graduate from?"

Lieutenant: "Staff major, but I also know Proson and Ansa, and can have a normal conversation in Melania, and I also know a little Carolingian."

Wang Zhong nodded: "I know a lot, but I don't know if Vasily is as good at deceiving the enemy."

Yakov smiled bitterly: "Captain Vasily got the gold star for his outstanding deception. How can I compare with him?"

Wang Zhong: "But many people say that Vasily got the gold star because of me. I already have two gold stars, so I let the adjutant get one too."

Yakov was shocked: "They dare to say that, aren't they afraid that the judge will examine them?"

Wang Zhong looked at Yakov in surprise: "Do you actually believe these rumors?"

"Shouldn't I believe it?" Yakov was even more shocked.

Wang Zhong: "Of course not. I have no special connection with the Inquisition, and I am just an ordinary friend of the head of the Inquisition, Cardinal Lavkid."

"But you have a special relationship with Patriarch Belinsky. Everyone says that you are his illegitimate child."

"No, no, no, I am 100% born to my parents, not adopted. But Bishop Belinsky will personally preside over the baptism of my child and become his godfather."

Yakov said "Oh", and then asked seriously: "I can't tell this to others, right?"

"Well, actually, it's up to you. After all, the baptism is this month, and becoming a godfather is also this month, but I can't make it. Well, enough chatting, I have to look at the documents."

As if she had timed it perfectly, Nellie pushed the cart in, and when she looked at Yakov, her eyes were like an old farmer evaluating a newly bought donkey.

Yakov: "Oh, this is the little maid! No wonder everyone says you are so lucky."

Wait a minute, what are people saying about Nellie outside!

Nellie frowned, obviously unhappy, but she didn't take out the salt. Instead, she pushed the cart to the side of the desk, opened the lid, took out the breakfast and coffee, and placed them on the table one by one.

After that, she asked Wang Zhong: "Is the new adjutant a girl? I see she has a male name."

Yakov: "I am a man, and I just got married!"

Wang Zhong was shocked: "You are married? You look only 18 years old!"

"I am 24 years old, have you not looked at my file at all?"

Wang Zhong could only admit: "Yes, I haven't looked at it at all. So you are so much older than Vasily? I thought they sent me someone who just graduated from the tenth grade!"

"You can't finish the staff major after graduating from the tenth grade! Although it is only a junior staff major."

After all, he is a lieutenant, and after finishing the senior staff major, he should be a colonel.

Yakov sighed: "Everyone always treats me as a child, but I am not short, I am 1.77 meters tall!"

Wang Zhong thought to himself, what are you talking in your sleep, kid, you are indeed a tall man in the Fuso Empire, but this is Ant.

But he didn't tell the truth, but coughed and said: "Did you just get married?"

"Yes, Lida insisted that I marry her before I went to the front line. She is my classmate and is receiving battlefield rescue training."

Wang Zhong: "She is a good girl, cherish her."

Yakov continued: "I told Lida that I was an adjutant in General Rokossov's headquarters and there would be no danger at all, but she didn't believe it. I guess it must be the girl in the nursing school who instilled some ideas in her.

"Anyway, we got married yesterday. I rushed to you after taking the photos. The photos haven't been developed yet."

Wang Zhong: "You can ask the photo studio to send the photos to the manor, and then send them to the front line together with my family letters. This will be smoother."

Yakov was overjoyed: "Can I? That's great! "

Wang Zhong nodded, picked up the breakfast on the table, and began to look through the documents while eating.

————

At noon, the airport called and informed Wang Zhong that the plane was ready and could take off immediately.

So Wang Zhong sorted out the documents he had reviewed, dressed neatly, and went to the nursery to take a last look at his wife and children.

As soon as he opened the door, he met Lyudmila's eyes.

"Are you leaving?" she asked.

Wang Zhong nodded gently: "Yes, the plane is waiting for me."

Lyudmila said apologetically: "The child just fell asleep, but even if he was awake, he couldn't understand what happened."

Wang Zhong: "Let him sleep, I just came to see you two. "

He walked to the cradle, looked at the baby boy who was sleeping like a kitten, and reached out to touch his pink face gently.

As a result, this action directly woke up the baby, and the powerful howl almost tore Wang Zhong's eardrum.

Lyudmila immediately reached out to shake the cradle, humming as she shook it.

She was humming "Departure", and she hummed and shook the cradle to the beat of the melody.

"We have a long way to march/Comrades, look forward/The team flag is flying high/The commander is in the front~"

The baby's howl was visibly lowered.

When Lyudmila hummed "Dear, I will write to you along the way", the baby smiled and shook his hands and feet to the rhythm.

Wang Zhong looked at the baby, and a huge determination surged, controlling his body and mind.

This smile, this smile is the meaning of fighting.

Children can laugh without worries , so that my country will no longer be sad.

Wang Zhong put on his hat, gently adjusted it, nodded to Lyudmila, and turned around resolutely.

The new adjutant Yakov was about to speak, but he shrank his neck when he saw Wang Zhong's expression.

Nellie, who was carrying a huge suitcase, squinted her eyes, her face full of praise and pride.

Lyudmila looked at his back gently and continued to hum: "The soldiers are all brave and young/with sharp eyes like eagles/We all have supreme glory/We have made great contributions in battle~

"Soldiers! Set off! Set off! Dear, I will write to you along the way~Listen to the bugle calling~Goodbye, set off. "

After listening to this, Wang Zhong said: "Let's go, go and deal with the fools who were confused by Proson, and come back to settle accounts with Proson people. "

Yakov: "Yes. "

Admiral Rokosov strode out of the nursery.
