Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Lin Yuan said: "Your question is very good. Before analyzing the way of fighting a war, the first thing we need to do is to analyze the opponents of this war. Let me ask you. What do you say about our war? Who will the opponent be?"

Fade Chen replied casually: "Does it need to be said? Of course it is the coalition forces of Russia and Mongolia."

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Then let me ask you, who is the Mongolian army composed of?"

Fade Chen thought for a while and said, "There are only Mongolian herdsmen."

Lin Yuan nodded and said: "That's right, it's the Mongolian herdsmen. In fact, the Mongolian herdsmen don't want to fight at all, and they don't even want to be independent, because after they become independent, their lives will definitely be much worse than they are now. Some people may think that The free life of a herd should be nice, but it's far from it."

"In terms of food production, grazing is much more backward than farming. In our history, Mongolia has asked for food from the interior many times. The reason is very simple. The only food for herdsmen is beef and mutton, but cattle and sheep Their growth rate is extremely slow, and it takes several years to grow, and their breeding technology is not high, so the mortality rate of cattle and sheep is not low. In contrast, planting crops is much faster, and they can earn a lot of food every year. .”

"And the biggest problem with grazing is the lack of many necessities of life, such as cloth for making clothes and medicinal materials for curing diseases, they don't have them; there is also tea, their diet is all meat, and they lack nutrients such as vitamins. They don't know what vitamins are, but they know that drinking tea can reduce disease; they don't have ceramics, or even containers for water."

"When I was chatting with those businessmen, I heard an interesting thing. Because the Mongolian herdsmen lacked pots and pans, when the caravan arrived in Mongolia, some Mongolian herdsmen wanted to use a horse Exchange a sheep for a clay pot! Through these, you should be able to know what life is like for ordinary Mongolian herdsmen, and these daily necessities have to be imported from the interior. If they become independent, it is impossible for mainland merchants to enter again. Mongolia."

Lin Yuan went on to say: "So, those who really want to be independent are those high-ranking Mongolians and Russians with ulterior motives. Therefore, our battle is like fighting a snake. If we don't fight, we should fight it directly Seven inches above, before they realize what's going on, beat them down!"

Fade Chen said: "According to what you mean, we must use a quick assault style in this battle? But I have to remind you that Kulun was the Mongolian capital Ulaanbaatar in our era, which is about 800 meters away from Beijing. There are more than [-] kilometers, and it is farther away from our base in the northeast, and our helicopters are not enough!"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "What do we use helicopters for? We have the conditions now to directly build a mechanized army, and then use a torrent of armor to submerge the Russian invaders and the Mongolian princes who are plotting to split!"

Fade Chen said in surprise: "We want to build an armored force? Great!"

Lin Yuan said: "Actually, after the diesel engine came out, we were already capable of building armored units, but I looked at our potential opponents and found that there was no room for armored units, such as the Japanese devils in North Korea, and North Korea. The mountains are not suitable for armored forces to fight at all. As for the western powers and the United States, they will definitely attack us from the sea, so I put this idea aside for the time being, but now the Russians want to split in Mongolia. Huh, there is an endless grassland , our armored forces just show their talents!"

Fade Chen said with a smile: "Haha, armor torrent, I've been dreaming of this day for a long time, won't we be able to drive tanks to torture Lao Maozi's cavalry?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "You're right, but we don't need to build tanks of our time, like Type 99 tanks with a laser suppression system, and the total is nearly [-] tons including the external reactive armor and all fuel ammunition. We have created such a tank, which is undoubtedly a great waste of resources."

"So our tanks will have distinctive features. First of all, the caliber of the main gun is more than 120mm and less than 75mm. Our current artillery system includes 120mm mortars at the squad level, and [-]mm mortars at the battalion and company level. [-]mm mortars and [-]mm howitzers, and [-]mm cannons at the division level, this small tank gun can provide us with support firepower at the regiment level."

"The second is our armor. We know that the Russians have created new types of artillery and shells, which is the one that was dismantled. From that shell, we have obtained a lot of information about the power of the shell, and based this on our The armor is designed to ensure that when the shell explodes within 30 meters, the armor will not be penetrated, and the body will not be overturned by the shock wave!"

Fade Chen said, "Has the tank you mentioned been built yet?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "Not yet, the ground vehicle department of the arsenal is now concentrating on building cars. You also know that railway construction requires a lot of cars, and there are still several technical difficulties in building tanks, such as engine technology. , The working environment of the tank is harsh, and the power requirements are relatively high, so the experts unanimously agreed to use turbocharging technology."

"However, the current turbocharger is still quite difficult, so it is still under development, not only the engine technology, but also the transmission gearbox. The working conditions of the tank are harsh, so the gears need to work in a wide range of transmission ratios. In this way As a result, the stress conditions of the gears will be very bad, so the service life of the gears will be very low. Now our experts are doing research, hoping to improve the materials. I estimate that when we finish the negotiations with the Russians, our Tanks will be able to field troops."

Fade Chen said: "Well, I have made an appointment with you in advance, and these tanks will be put into our troops first after they are built."

Lin Yuan shook his head lightly and said, "No, you are mountain divisions. What kind of light mountain divisions are you equipped with a large number of tanks?"

Fade Chen frowned, and complained: "If you don't bring something like this for fun, you won't give us any good things?"

Lin Yuan said: "Don't worry, I also plan to build another armored infantry fighting vehicle. This vehicle is wheeled and much lighter than the tracked one. But don't worry, although this armored vehicle is light, it can The thickness of the armor is definitely sufficient! At least it can’t be pierced when it is face to face with the Maxim heavy machine gun!”

Fade Chen nodded in relief. At this moment, the train stopped, and Lin Yuan said, "Why did it stop? I'll ask someone."

At this moment, Shen Wanqing came over and said to Lin Yuan: "I asked the train staff just now that we have reached the border between Russia and Germany, and we will get off the train in a while and pass the German border. Then change to the German train, but I know there is an interesting place on the border, do you want to see it?"

Lin Yuan asked: "The interesting place? What is it?"

Shen Wanqing said: "This place is the Vulken Shipyard, a famous military factory in Germany, and it is also the place where Dingyuan and Zhenyuan are produced!"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "Then we will go even more, this is a good opportunity for us to learn about the development of the German Navy!"
