Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 1517 Transportation
The time has entered 1944, and good news came from Mao Xiong. They achieved a decisive victory in the direction of Stalingrad and surrounded Hans' Sixth Army in Stalingrad.

This is a year later than in history, Wang Xuexin thought, this may be related to his own existence changing the trajectory of history... For example, his appearance allowed Hans to develop missiles in advance and invest in the attack on Mao Xiong. The combat plan may have been changed because the missile was about to be successfully developed.

For this reason, Wang Xuexin was taken aback before. He was worried that Hans defeated Mao Xiong and the whole history would be changed into a mess, making the war against Hans and the devils even more difficult.

Fortunately, none of this happened. Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, it finally returned to the right path: Compared with the victory in the defense of Moscow, the defense of Stalingrad was more important to Mao Xiong. This battle made Hans energetic The serious injury directly affected the result of the subsequent battle of Kursk.

Lemon Lokov immediately sent a telegram to Wang Xuexin: "Comrade Commander, we have surrounded Hans' army in the direction of Stalinger. Do you know why we have made such great progress?"

"You changed the tank gun?" Wang Xuexin said.

This is not difficult to guess, with Mao Xiong's industrial foundation, it is only a matter of minutes to produce a fin-stabilized shell-piercing shell with unsatisfactory performance and replace it with a smoothbore gun.

"Yes!" Lemon Lokov replied excitedly: "We replaced the T34 with 100MM smoothbore guns, my God, they can penetrate the enemy's 'Tiger', and the balance of victory is tilted towards us in an instant !"

Wang Xuexin can understand why Mao Xiong chose to replace the barrel of the T34 instead of other tanks.

At this time, there have been several modifications of the T34. It can be said to be the most reliable and stable tank of Maoxiong. If it is equipped with an invincible tank gun... it will definitely be on the battlefield. The dazzling light once again bloomed, including the subsequent Kursk tank battle.

Finally Lemon Lokov said excitedly: "Thank you, Comrade Commander! I don't know how to express my gratitude to you. In short...you are our most trustworthy partner, Comrade Commander!"

Wang Xuexin didn't answer anything.

He kept reminding himself one thing in his heart: There are only interests between countries, so don't be fooled by some false images.

For example, the "most trustworthy partner" mentioned by Lemon Lokoff is only because Wang Xuexin at this time has brought great national interests to Mao Xiong.

But having said that, Mao Xiong will be in China's national interest for a long time to come, so it is very necessary to trade with it and maintain a good relationship.

Here in Taiyuan, the first batch of 44 T[-]s finally rolled off the assembly line.

Due to the needs of the war situation, they were rushed to the battlefield without going through thorough testing... This is a bit like a bear fighting a war. When the bear is in a hurry, the tanks come off the production line and drive to the battlefield, and the workers drive them up. of.

What breakdowns, break-ins, training, etc., who cares?

If you are really in a hurry, as long as you can fire a few shots and kill a few enemies, you will earn it!
However, the T44 of the Eighth Route Army is not like this.

The tank soldiers were transferred from Yuncheng. They originally drove T34, and they were selected from the best... At this time, there is no war pressure in the direction of Yuncheng, and the transfer of tank soldiers will not have any impact.

Moreover, two prototype vehicles were produced before, and these two prototype vehicles were used for training tank soldiers.

In the process, a group of logistics technicians were trained by the way: the T44 has a lot of failures, and problems occur every three days, and the technicians have accumulated some experience after repairing.

The laser rangefinder is also installed, but the volume is still too large... It used to be like a refrigerator, but after removing the mercury delay line memory, it becomes a suitcase.

This size does not mean that it cannot be installed, but that it will make it impossible to turn around in the already crowded tank cabin.

So Wang Xuexin separated the main body of the rangefinder, such as the battery and the computing unit, and installed it at the rear of the tank.

Chen Songyong also asked: "Commander, what if this is damaged by enemy shells?"

"If it's broken, just check it visually!" Wang Xuexin asked back: "Could it be that they wouldn't be able to fight without this thing?"

"This..." Chen Songyong was a little reluctant: "This is too wasteful, transistors are not cheap!"

Transistors are indeed not cheap.

It should be said that it is almost priceless in this era... No matter how much money Huaxia is willing to sell, first maintain its own technological advantages, and then sell it when there is further development and the transistor is about to fall behind.

If Huaxia is not willing to sell, no one will have it, so no matter how much you spend, you can't buy it, so it is priceless.If you really want to sell it, saying that these transistors are more expensive than gold is to underestimate the transistors.

It's just that Huaxia can produce it itself and use modern and cheap production technology to produce it... The production method Wang Xuexin gave Turing is the method of mass production of chips in modern industry.

That's why the Eighth Route Army can use it so well and use it so extravagantly. There are a bunch of transistors on the back of the tank, and the enemy can fight and blow up whatever they want.

But Wang Xuexin made Chen Songyong think it was worth it just by saying one sentence.

Wang Xuexin said: "Officer Chen, think about why our tanks use the laser rangefinder? If it can hit the first shot...do you still feel it is a pity?"

Chen Songyong immediately nodded his head: "It's a pity, if you can change to a 'Tiger', this transistor is nothing!"

This is not only the value of the "Tiger" itself, but also the role that the "Tiger" can play on the battlefield, and the lives of tank soldiers and infantry... Compared with these, transistors are nothing.

Then the twenty T44s were sent to Zhangjiakou in two batches.

There are still some troubles in the sending process:

The trains in Shanxi are narrow-gauge trains, and some tunnels cannot be passed by T44.

For this reason, Wang Xuexin specially asked Chen Songyong to plan a route to be transported by train for a section, and then let T44 open a section to bypass the tunnel and then get on the train. After reaching Datong, it was changed to wide gauge, and then it was transported to Zhangjiakou.

Zhangjiakou has not been connected to the train, so it can only drive to Shagou Town.

The issue of confidentiality along the way has become a difficult point... It is impossible for the roar of tanks along the way to deceive the secret agents.

For this reason, Chen Songyong thought of a way. He tried his best to dress up these twenty T44s to make them look like "Shermans".

This is indeed a solution. The "Sherman" of Li Yunlong's independent regiment was almost damaged in the battle in Duolun County. It is normal to drive a few to replenish it now.

To be on the safe side, all the marches were carried out at night, and it would be difficult for the devils and spies to recognize this as a Soviet tank if they had not received special training.
