Fengxian Jiangshan

Before the smoke in Luojin cleared, three cargo ships appeared outside the port, loaded with food and munitions.After a great battle, Qin Wei's northern army also consumed a lot of supplies and urgently needed replenishment.

He personally brought the troops to the port, and it was Liu Shaoqing who was in charge of delivering the goods. He has now been promoted to the director of the Military Supplies Procurement Department, and has a major say in the procurement of various weapons and military supplies. Even Zhang Tinglan's opinions He was dismissed several times by Liu Shaoqing.

But the more this is the case, the more prosperous Liu Shaoqing is in Fengjun, and he is highly valued. After all, the issue of military supplies is too important, and there is a stern and shrewd person staring at him, so everyone can rest assured.

After getting off the cargo ship and seeing Qin Wei, he smiled and said, "Old sir, you wiped out a Japanese regiment, but your reputation has grown so great that no one in the world knows about it!"

"It's nothing. The No.19 division is not the main force, and it's not all wiped out. It's just two main teams. It's no match for Old Sun!"

Although he said so, Qin Wei still showed joy on his face. He was also very satisfied with this battle, but he failed to capture the military flag, which was far less brilliant than Sun Anhu's victory in Gaizhou. There is still a bit of competition in my heart.

Liu Shaoqing also smiled and said: "Old officer, you don't need to worry, another good thing has been found, it's up to you to show your skills."

When Qin Wei heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, and he said with a smile: "Your boy has been promoted to a high-ranking official, so you won't come to the front line easily. There must be something good about coming here this time, so hurry up and tell me about it."

"Old officer, don't worry, I'll show you something first." [

While speaking, a lot of things had been unloaded from the boat, and Qin Wei noticed that in the middle, there were more than a dozen squares covered with tarpaulin, which seemed to be like classic cars.But the head seems to be a little bit bigger.

Liu Shaoqing took a few steps, brushed it, and tore off the tarpaulin, revealing the true face of Mount Lu inside.Although this thing is a thing with four wheels like a classic car, it is also obviously different.The body is wider and stronger, and the wheels are bigger and wider.The most special thing is that the car is completely convertible, with only a metal frame on it.

Looking at this strange thing, Qin Wei frowned: "Shaoqing, what is this thing? What's so special about it?"

Liu Shaoqing smiled and said: "Old sir, this is our latest military off-road vehicle, code-named Mustang. It has outstanding off-road performance. It can carry people and weapons. Compared with armored vehicles and tanks, this vehicle can be called Light cavalry for assault."

Liu Shaoqing calmly introduced the situation to Qin Wei. In fact, the so-called Mustang off-road vehicle is very similar to the jeep concept of later generations.

With the construction of mechanization, Fengjun faced an important problem.That is to make the infantry quicker and put the infantry on wheels.Zhang Tinglan also knows that the jeep is a very good all-rounder, able to complete almost any task, but this thing was developed by the US military before World War II, and it has not yet appeared at this time.

Therefore, Zhang Tinglan decided to settle for the next best thing, and got a pickup truck production line, and wanted to temporarily use the pickup truck to take on some military tasks.However, after Liu Shaoqing took charge of the procurement of military supplies, he focused on sorting out all the major procurement items and carefully studied the problems.

Originally, Feng Jun had never doubted Zhang Tinglan's judgment, even to the point of blind obedience, questioning Zhang Tinglan's decision was like a crime.But Liu Shaoqing found that the project of introducing pickup trucks had many problems and could not meet the needs of the army.For this reason, he studied without sleep for three days, finally gritted his teeth and decided to visit Zhang Tinglan and report the problems he found.

The problems discovered by Liu Shaoqing can be summarized into three aspects, production difficulties, high prices, and insufficient transportation capacity.For the United States, which can mass-produce cars, pickup trucks are naturally nothing special, but for Feng Jun, the technical difficulty is still quite high. Even if there is a production line, a large number of excellent technicians must be invested.

In addition, the production cost of a pickup is almost close to that of a classic car. No matter how rich Feng Jun is, he cannot afford to equip it.As for the problem of capacity, the problem is mainly on the engine. The later generations of Picaras can carry more than one ton of cargo, but it is absolutely impossible now. The gap between the engines is too big. At best, they can only carry machine guns, and they cannot tow small and medium caliber artillery.

When the red-eyed Liu Shaoqing stood in front of Zhang Tinglan, our Lan Shuai also noticed his own problems. He tried his best to look at problems from the present perspective instead of the future generations' ideas when dealing with many problems, but sometimes It is still inevitable to be preconceived.

"Shaoqing, your opinion is correct, but what do you think should be done, is it to abandon the pickup truck project?"

"Marshal, I think education is enough for children who are disobedient, and we don't need to beat them to death with a stick, and we really need a multifunctional military transport vehicle. And the pickup truck is not without its merits, it depends on how to use it. "

Liu Shaoqing immediately made a suggestion to Zhang Tinglan. Pickup trucks are relatively comfortable and have a certain transportation capacity. There is a market in China, especially for the people in the Northeast who are rich first. They can afford it. You might as well use pickup trucks to make money.In addition, the main market for pickup trucks is still the western United States. Liu Shaoqing suggested selling pickup trucks to the United States instead, or simply building a factory in the United States, or cooperating in production. In short, the patent for pickup trucks is in the hands of Fengjun.

Then use the funds earned from the pickup truck project to hire professional automotive talents to design a military vehicle according to the needs of the Fengjun.New cars can completely borrow the mature technology of pickup trucks, and they can also use the pickup truck production line to train workers. [

Zhang Tinglan also made some calculations. In this way, there is almost no need to invest, and there will be profits if it is done well, so she readily agrees.As a result, after the matter was handed over to Liu Shaoqing, within four months, two automobile experts in the United States initially came up with a brand new design plan.

After optimization, it was handed over to Zhang Tinglan. At this time, this thing is almost the same as the jeep of later generations. Zhang Tinglan simply made some changes according to the appearance of the jeep.

In the end, the brand-new military transport vehicle was determined, and then a car production line was obtained from the United States with the patent of the pickup truck. After this installation, qualified jeeps can be produced.

Before the start of the war, Fengjun produced nearly 350 vehicles in total. This time Liu Shaoqing sent [-] vehicles to Qin Wei, basically all of them.

Liu Shaoqing said with a smile: "Old sir, the commander-in-chief has given a special explanation. I hope you can use these vehicles to quickly raid along the river, and finally reach Wonsan Port all the way. In this way, the northern half of North Korea will fall into our hands."

Hearing Liu Shaoqing's words, Qin Wei also became short of breath. He knew the situation in North Korea very well.The railway network of the peninsula presents a huge X-shape, with Seoul in the center and then extending outward. He is now on this section of the railway along the northern coast.

The Japanese heavy troops are still concentrated in the relatively flat south, that is, between Pyongyang and Sinuiju. Those Japanese soldiers are the targets of the Fengjun Central and Southern Front Army.Two legions are enough, and Qin Wei's Northern Front Legion will be redundant.

On the contrary, the troops in the north are empty. If he can use the jeep to carry out a quick assault, he can take advantage of the opportunity to seize the railway line. As Liu Shaoqing said, he can directly hit Wonsan and even quickly threaten Seoul. This attraction is really too great.

Thinking of this, Qin Wei walked around the jeep unconsciously for a few times, and his eyes showed surprise. Although this thing's protection ability can't compare with that of tanks and armored vehicles, it is better in speed and flexibility. , strong cross-country ability, suitable for North Korea's mountainous terrain.

Moreover, from Rajin to Wonsan, there are not many Japanese garrisons along the way. They are all garrison troops, and there are even North Korean puppet troops.

Thinking of this, Qin Wei's face showed joy, he stepped on the accelerator suddenly, the jeep let out a roar, spit out a cloud of black smoke, and rushed out quickly, full of energy, like a wild horse Generally, violent and powerful.

After running around, Qin Wei couldn't help laughing when he got off the car: "Shaoqing, with this thing, North Korea won't be able to escape!"

Qin Wei immediately modified these jeeps, installed machine guns and mortars on them, and at the same time removed the most elite infantry regiment from the Seventh Division and let them ride in jeeps to act as the vanguard of the troops.

More than 300 jeeps lined up in a neat queue and rushed down along the railway line.In order to save face, the Japanese "government" did not inform the defenders along the way that the No. 19 Division had been wiped out.

But they were also asked to blow up the railway, and then retreat as soon as possible. These Japanese also knew that the situation was not good, so they blasted in a hurry, preparing to escape.

But the speed of Fengjun's arrival far exceeded their imagination. The huge jeep convoy rushed up with their buttocks on their backs. The machine guns on the car "shot" when they saw the Japanese, like raindrops, before they had time to react. They all died on the spot.

The Assault Corps also became more and more crazy. The distance between them and the main force was more than fifty kilometers. Qin Wei was both happy and uneasy. The performance of the Assault Corps was beyond imagination, but he also knew that these jeeps were almost Without protection ability, once encountering artillery attack, it will suffer a big loss.

Fortunately, the assault troops seized Chongjin, which is also an important town in the northwest of the Korean peninsula. The Japanese soldiers stationed in Chongjin did not have time to resist, and wiped out the Feng army. At the same time, the Feng army also seized five trains.

With these trains, everything becomes easier. The follow-up troops can use the railways to maneuver. Their speed is getting faster and faster. Like a storm, all the Japanese strongholds along the way are turned into fallen leaves and wiped out. Light.

Qin Wei's army on the Northern Front advanced 110 kilometers in one day, which even surpassed the speed of the German blitz. Not to mention the Japanese couldn't believe it, even the Fengjun himself couldn't believe it. Qin Wei When reporting the situation to Zhang Tinglan again, they were a little trembling.

But Zhang Tinglan's call back to him was relatively simple, with only one word: Chong!
