Traveling through the sword to engage in military industry.

As for the Army Aviation Regiment, Ren Zhong couldn't provide Lao Li with enough helicopters for him to use.

But Ren Zhong has now developed another mysterious equipment that will keep Li Yunlong busy for a long time.

The Bobcat four-wheel drive all-terrain vehicle is a toy produced by an agricultural vehicle company in the main world. Who would have thought that it would inadvertently become a darling on the battlefield of a certain big country.

When Ren Zhong first saw this car, he almost laughed at its ugly appearance.

But after learning about the performance in detail, he bought a few without hesitation and asked Liang Xiaofeng and his team to study and optimize the design. Although Liang Xiaofeng didn't know what Ren Zhong wanted him to do, this car was a mass-produced product produced by a domestic manufacturer after all, and it would not be appropriate for his own factory in Heifei to copy it.

Moreover, the cost of this vehicle is much higher than that of various overloaded pickup trucks based on agricultural vehicles. In order to achieve all-terrain four-wheel drive, the material and structural design must be greatly strengthened. The most important thing is that the body must be very compact, which is completely inconsistent with the regional demand characteristics of black non-essential vehicles that are large, capable of building and pulling. If it is used as a pure passenger car, the comfort is completely incomparable to off-road vehicles. For the black non-essential vehicle market, it is completely useless.

However, Liang Xiaofeng did not bargain for the task assigned by Ren Zhong. He instructed a group of R&D to carefully redesign the car with "micro-innovation" based on the other person's design, and carried out a small-scale prototype production test. After confirming and adjusting some materials and structures, the engine displacement was increased. The new model was even stronger than the original mass-produced version.

After the micro-innovation, Ren Zhong did not let the Black Non-Chinese factory in the main world mass-produce this car. Although in Ren Zhong's opinion, after the militarization of this car, it still has a certain appeal to the Black Non-Chinese market. After all, compared with agricultural vehicles, the price of this all-terrain vehicle is much more expensive, but compared with real military armored vehicles and pickup trucks, this price seems very affordable.

What’s important is that on roads without any support, this vehicle has much better adaptability. It can run on roads or not, and its wading depth is more than 0.4 meters. It can easily cross obstacles in muddy and rugged terrain.

In terms of load capacity, when used for transportation, it is compact and can carry a squad! Or the maximum load capacity is more than 500 kg. With such a load capacity, it can be loaded with light and heavy machine guns, anti-tank missiles, individual air defense missiles, anti-aircraft machine guns and other powerful weapons in the main world, and directly participate in combat operations. Taking the 120mm mortar widely equipped by a certain army as an example, only two of this all-terrain vehicle can carry a gun and a base of ammunition, that is, a mortar team composed of two vehicles can tow a gun and a base of shells to maneuver and strike at any time, which greatly improves the firepower strike capability and battlefield mobility.

For large-scale positional warfare, such all-terrain vehicles are incomparable to armored vehicles and tanks, but in some special occasions, such as reconnaissance, small-scale rapid response, and facing local forces that lack heavy firepower, Ren Zhong feels that they have a very powerful practical role.

So, after seeing that Li Yunlong was a little idle, Ren Zhong thought of this. It happened that this all-terrain vehicle in the world of Bright Sword had already started mass production. Originally, Ren Zhong was going to build it for each battalion-level reconnaissance team, but after seeing Li Yunlong, Ren Zhong felt that he could do a little more.

"Let me build a rapid response force?" Li Yunlong took Ren Zhong's "Rapid Response Force Establishment Plan" and after reading it carefully, Old Li fell silent.

According to Ren Zhong's plan, the entire rapid reaction force is roughly a battalion-level force, with an air assault brigade consisting of 4 helicopters and 30 three-wheeled vehicles, and two ground assault brigade consisting of 60 Cheetah all-terrain vehicles. Each of the 30 Cheetah all-terrain vehicles carries a 5-man assault team, including 1 machine gunner, 1 sniper, and 3 assaulters.

8 Cheetah all-terrain vehicles were converted into 107mm rocket launcher mobile vehicles, and 8 Cheetah all-terrain vehicles were converted into 100mm mortars, with 4 artillery groups, one for the gun and the other for the shells;

Four Cheetah all-terrain vehicles were converted into 4mm dual-purpose anti-aircraft guns, another five were converted into five heavy machine guns, and the last five were converted into five 20mm single-barrel rocket launchers. Although they were not many, their combat effectiveness and mobility were very strong.

According to Ren Zhong's plan, the long-distance transport will use Y-8 transport aircraft for air transport and has the ability to be deployed globally 24 hours a day!
"Brother Ren, I don't think this small number of people in your rapid reaction force will be of much use if they are really sent to an unfamiliar battlefield. With this strength, they can occupy checkpoints and stop the enemy. With suitable terrain and enough ammunition, they can hold out for a division for three to five days. But if it's really a remote place, our follow-up large forces won't be able to get there so quickly. I don't think it's very meaningful." Li Yunlong saw the global deployment above and subjectively believed that this was going to be a world war.

If this is the case, your battalion-level armed force will be of little use no matter how quickly it is deployed. Facing a country, a small force can neither destroy the country nor protect itself.

"What are you thinking about? The main task of this rapid reaction force is not to fight in a major war, but to respond to counter-terrorism and local regional military conflicts." Ren Zhong knew that Lao Li had no experience in many small-scale military operations in the main world, so he understood the direction wrongly.

"For example, if our factories and mines in a Southeast Asian country are suddenly besieged by rebels and the local government forces request our reinforcement, we must be able to quickly launch a rescue operation. The goal of our rapid response force is to be able to carry out rescue operations on a global scale against guerrillas of dozens or hundreds of people. Of course, we can also be involved in some small-scale military operations on the border."

Ren Zhong briefly explained his thoughts, and now Lao Li understood.

Isn't this similar to the role of the Marine Corps? However, compared to the Marine Corps, it is more oriented towards regular military operations, while the rapid reaction force is aimed at the brutal warlord forces in different parts of the world.

This was somewhat in conflict with Lao Li's usual ideas, but it did not prevent Lao Li from suddenly becoming very interested in this plan.

"Okay, I'm free anyway. I think the concept of rapid reaction force proposed by you, Brother Ren, is promising. I'll submit a report and request to set up a pilot project." Li Yunlong said excitedly.

"Staff Officer Ye will coordinate this matter. It's not a big deal, just a battalion-sized unit. Staff Officer Ye will coordinate it and it will be filed." Ren Zhong was already familiar with the operation mode of this matter.

People are formed, and there is nothing special about the weapons preparation, and the demand is not large. Ren Zhong will coordinate the military production, and Li Yunlong can use the all-terrain vehicles for free for trial use. Among them, the most difficult helicopters will be dispatched from Li Yunlong's troops anyway, so there is no need to make any big changes.

So this matter was put into operation very quickly.

Li Yunlong found something fun again and started to move.
