Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1887

In 1931, the Brazilian Army had just completed mules and horses. While lacking armored forces, it also lacked effective ways to fight against armored forces.

Regardless of the fact that the tanks in southern Africa have been upgraded for two or three generations, the armored forces are really not something that ordinary countries can play. The United Kingdom and the United States disbanded their troops immediately after the end of the World War. Brazil can maintain a standing force of 20. It's not easy, and the requirements for weapons and equipment should not be too high.

Like most port cities with a long history, Victoria, which has a history of nearly 400 years, did not have urban planning at all when it was built, so Victoria's urban planning is a bit chaotic, with commercial areas and residential areas mixed together, mansions There may be a slum next to it, with narrow streets and chaotic layout. In fact, the use of armored forces in such an environment will be greatly restricted.

The area near the coastline is usually a rich area, the buildings are relatively strong, and the distance is quite large. The residents of the rich area have all fled to Kitchina Port before the military government fleet arrived, so there is no need to worry about accidentally injuring civilians. .

Rex and the "light cavalry" tank he named "Little Monster" are hidden in the bushes in the rich area.

Rex is a southern African, participated in the world war, is an experienced commander.

Rex retired after the World War and returned to Cape Town to run his own farm. Two years later, Rex, who was bored, joined the Umbrella Company as a mercenary. He just came to Mizhou as an instructor a month ago.

In principle, the Federal Government of Southern Africa does not agree to the participation of southern Africans in the war.

But after all, Umbrella Corporation is a commercial company, and the federal government has nothing to do with mercenaries willing to make money.

What's more, the salaries offered by the state capital of Mizhou to the mercenaries are really not low. The price of 50 rand per month is enough to make many people excited, and there will be bonuses for participating in the battle. The senior mercenaries of the umbrella company are all from the battlefield Veterans, most of the time, they know how to save their lives.

The "Light Cavalry" sold by the Federal Government of Southern Africa to the state capital of Mizhou is already the second generation of upgraded and improved models. Compared with the original model of "Light Cavalry", the total weight of the improved "Light Cavalry" is still 16 tons , the crew has been increased from two to three, and the artillery has been upgraded to a 75mm caliber. Originally, this type of "light cavalry" has been installed with a radio communication system, but southern Africa is selling this batch of "light cavalry" to Mizhou The state capital has previously removed all radio systems.

This is also the last batch of "light cavalry" tanks in southern Africa. After selling this batch of "light cavalry" to the state capital of Michigan, southern Africa has emptied its inventory, and the next tanks produced will mainly be "Leopard" tanks. , supplemented by a small number of "Tiger" tanks.

Yes, the "Tiger" tank has been successfully developed. Compared with the "Leopard", the "Tiger" has thicker armor, stronger firepower, and stronger survivability. According to the standards of southern Africa, the "Tiger" tank can already be classified Belong to the ranks of heavy tanks.

As for Europe—

Sorry, there is no concept of heavy tanks in Europe at present.

Last year, the UK just divided tanks into two types: infantry tanks and cruiser tanks. Infantry tanks have thicker armor and poor maneuverability, and are used to accompany infantry operations; cruiser tanks have thinner armor and stronger maneuverability. For mobile warfare.

The overall performance of the current British Matilda infantry tank is probably similar to that of the "light cavalry" tank sold to Brazil in southern Africa.

The "Tiger" heavy tank uses a more powerful 88mm tank gun. The frontal armor of the turret has reached an unprecedented 110 mm, and it is still inclined armor. This has caused all tank guns used by all tanks in the world to be unable to penetrate " The frontal armor of the turret of the Tiger tank.

With such thick armor, the weight of the "Tiger" has also reached an unprecedented 55 tons. In order to drive this behemoth, the engine of the "Tiger" is a 12-cylinder diesel engine produced by Diesel, with a power of 700 horsepower.

Here is another explanation. Although it has been proved during the World War that tanks with gasoline engines are more likely to explode, at present, only southern Africa has the ability to install diesel engines on all tanks. Other countries, including the United States, still Mainly gasoline engines.

The reason is very frustrating, because more rare metals are needed to make diesel engines.

The country with the highest reserves of rare metals in the world is undoubtedly southern Africa. After all, there are many regions in southern Africa known as "the world's raw material warehouses."

This may be the last time that Rex will drive the "Light Cavalry" to participate in the battle, so Rex cherishes this opportunity very much. Every morning, he will lead the crew to wipe the "little monster" clean, so that the driver Martha I am very worried that if I wipe it like this, the armor of the "little monster" will be thinned.

"Stop talking nonsense, move forward a little bit, and clear out everything in the track. We must protect the weapon like our eyes. Only if you treat it well, it will treat you kindly." Rex was very reluctant, " The "Hussar" has passed the test of war, and it is indeed a very good tank. It will be eliminated in southern Africa where new weapons are emerging in an endless stream. There are still many "Hussars" in service in Europe.

"We're going to fight, not to attend a dinner party. It's easier to protect ourselves if we get dirty." Martha was tired. The more glamorous the battlefield, the faster the death. It's better that no one will notice when it's gray.

"What you said makes sense—" Rex held his arms and held his chin in thought for two seconds, and then assigned a new task to Martha: "—after cleaning the car, go get some branches with leaves, we want Give the little monster some camouflage."

This--

Martha wailed, and went to drive obediently.

While Rex and Martha were busy making a disguise for the "little monster", in a mansion made of marble next door, Sun Meng was squatting in the living room, using the suggested sand table to arrange combat missions.

Well, the sand table is indeed a bit simple. Although there is a lot of sand on the beach by the sea, no one is in the mood to make a sand table at this time. Sun Meng simply drew a line on the ground to represent the street in front of him, and put a dozen small stones on both sides as The house, this area is the area under the responsibility of Sun Meng's company.

"The buildings in this block are very strong. We must use these buildings to fortify layer by layer to give government troops sufficient damage. We must make full use of machine guns and grenades, and do not give government soldiers a chance to approach the buildings. Don’t worry if the line of defense is lost, with the cooperation of tanks, we can easily take back the first line of defense.” Sun Meng is also a veteran, having participated in more than ten battles, large and small, and has rich experience.

"Tsk tsk, it's a pity that these mansions are gone. I don't know how many will be left when the war is over." Sergeant Major William's focus is a bit strange. No matter how many are left, it has nothing to do with the mercenaries. Worrying about these is worse than worrying about the next battle.

Of course, this also fully shows that William is very relaxed and does not worry about the next battle at all. How contemptuous the combat effectiveness of the military government troops is.

"It is estimated that there will not be a single building left, and even if there are leftovers, most of them will be flattened by then—" Sun Meng was not too nervous, and was easily distracted by William.

How about a city with a history of hundreds of years? It is a good thing to say that it has a long history, but it is also a fact that the urban planning is unreasonable. Many cities with a long history do not even have a complete drainage system, and all kinds of pipelines are later. The increase is actually ugly if it is not planned in a unified way. Thinking about the pictures of Indian electricians on the Internet in later generations, "long history" often means something.

Compared with Brazilians, southern Africans can be said to be construction freaks. This situation will definitely change. A city with a history of 4000 years like Damascus will be pushed as soon as it is pushed, and 500 years is not worth mentioning.

Therefore, the key is not to be afraid of destruction, but the key is to rebuild after the destruction, just like European countries colonized Africa, only plundering but not building, and expecting Africans to thank you, Africans are not fools, okay?

Of course some countries are more extreme.

This is not to say Southern Africa.

It's about beautiful country.

"I think we still have to give up the first line of defense and let the government troops in, so that the government troops don't dare to use naval guns easily." William said that it was business. The 305mm main gun is the biggest threat to the Michigan National Guard.

"Don't worry, the Brazilians don't dare to use naval guns—" Sun Meng was not worried about this problem.

"Why?" William asked confused.

On the map provided by the Umbrella Company to the Brazilian military government, the area under the responsibility of Sun Meng’s Company has neither Iron Four Corners property nor any foreign embassy in Victoria, so this layer of protection does not exist.

And there is one thing to say, although the Brazilian military government is very afraid of southern Africa, but the battle has been fought to a certain extent, who will take into account off-site factors when it comes to life and death, and win the battle first.

"Hehe, on the other side of the river is the port of Kitchener, and battleships can't get close enough to shoot. The distance is more than ten kilometers. If a shell misses and flies to the other side of the river, what do you think will happen?" Sun Meng has already planned Well, retreat, if you can't fight, just swim to the other side of the river.

Whether they can swim across is not a problem for the mercenaries. This is the reason why the mercenaries must know everything. They may not be proficient, but they must not be ignorant.

As for other National Guard soldiers, they can only resign themselves to their fate. When they go to the battlefield, don't take their own lives seriously. The more afraid of death, the faster they die.

However, Sun Meng's prediction was still wrong. Although battleships cannot approach and shoot, destroyers or cruisers can.

On November 11, under the cover of warships, Brazilian government troops officially launched an attack on Victoria Harbour.

ps: The following is a reply to the recent concerns of some brothers, but only the genuine version can be seen——

　Many brothers are most concerned about whether the title of prime minister should be changed after leaving the Commonwealth.

　　In fact, it should be changed, but I dare not change it. This involves an issue of overseas nation-building. As long as you dare to touch it, you will be confused. The reason why southern Africa will be independent is because southern Africa was really independent in history, and then returned to the Commonwealth of Nations.

　　There are still many brothers scolding water——

　　There was an interval of 20 years between the First World War and the Second World War. It is impossible to just come to "20 years later" and then start the fight directly, not to mention that there are still many brothers who like to watch the daily life.

　　There is also my own problem here. The old brothers all know that the first two books ended suddenly. Many things that I wanted to write have not been written yet, and the second one has been delayed. I was actually writing a new book last year, and I have already written it. In more than a dozen versions, two backgrounds have been changed, but it is useless——

　　Finally, at the end, I would like to thank the brothers again for their support, especially those who are cursing and paying for subscriptions, I will regard this as true love——
