Chapter 177 The Great Development of Armament

In the green smoke of sandalwood slowly rising in the room, Shen Hanze hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm afraid that Zhang Xuewu is involved. Now the variables have increased again. You send a secret letter to invite the other two elders to Hong Kong!" Without the three of us, I'm afraid that Longtang's vitality will be greatly damaged after this time. Although every time the boss of Longtang changes, we have to take care of the roots below!"

The old man in blue hesitated a little and said, "Big Elder! Old slave, I don't know if I should say something or not?"

Shen Hanze smiled and said, "Brother Cheng, you are too modest. In terms of generation, you are still older than me. Where are you going to put me here who claim to be an old slave? I've said it many times, but I can't do it later!"

The old man in Tsing Yi smiled gratefully and said, "Great Elder! Rules are rules. They can't be broken! There was no precedent for women to be the leader. In the early years, the governors of Sun Cannon, Yuan Guangtou and Beiyang Zheng Axe took a lot of our money, but what happened in the end? There are a lot of people who have returned to us! Is this Zhang Xuewu safe? Our foundation is in Nanyang, the United States and Europe, so there is nothing we can do about the domestic gang of smo. We are under the table again. No one knows that if we put most of the foundation into Zhang Xuewu's hands, in case he turns against us, we will be in vain again!"

Shen Hanze sighed helplessly and said, "We are not a prince, nor is it a split earth to dominate! I just want a political axe that has the ability to protect us at a critical moment. The development history of overseas Chinese is a history of blood and tears. Who is willing to leave their hometown if the family can survive? Have we had fewer people killed in the past hundreds of years? Who said a word for us? That's why we have a political axe that can speak for us. Zhang Xuewu is just another choice and investment for us! For hundreds of years, there have been few such opportunities. He dares to intervene with a little girl's two-point chance of winning. On the one hand, he doesn't know the depth of my dragon hall, and on the other hand, his ambition is definitely more than what we see on the surface!"

The old man in Tsing Yi said helplessly, "The more ambitious the people are, the more difficult it is to control!" Especially for these soldiers who hold the power of life and death, they turn their faces faster than the day in June.

Shen Hanze smiled and said, "My girl also likes Zhang Xuewu. Everyone knows this. I'm not going to object. If Zhou Ying can really be the position of the boss of Longtang, it is not humiliating to let her be a concubine. How many people dream of serving a husband with my daughter of Shen Hanze? Going on, Zhang Xuewu's safety must be guaranteed. Nanyang will open a new company to transfer assets. Investment in Rehe will start with railways and steel, which are urgently needed by Zhang Xuewu's expansion. The funds must be sufficient. The key is all kinds of talents, which are not available in Zhang Xuewu, so he must Relying on us, he can't turn his face off without us. I believe that Zhang Xuewu is a long-term person and can't kill chickens and eggs! In addition, Soviet Russia should also pay close contact to ensure the smooth communication through channels. Zhang Xuewu's forces in Chahar, Suiyuan and Rehe are equivalent to relying on Soviet Russia. Compared with Britain, the United States and France, Russia's support is more practical, but all of this should be under the table. The Russians are extremely greedy. As long as they have money, they will even sell their ancestors. Lord of."

"Yes! Elder, don't worry, I'll do it now!" The old man in Qingyi quickly disappeared into the darkness. Shen Hanze picked up Zizhi Tongjian with interest and looked at it. It seemed that everything in the history books was the ability to find lessons.

After a few clouds and rains, Zhang Xuewu and Zhou Ying finalized the details of the so-called cooperation one by one in the quilt. Zhang Xuewu sent five combat detachments of the two special assault brigades, Falcon and Blade, to Shanghai secretly, and dispatched 300 well-trained reserve members as reinforcements and response troops to go to Shanghai in batches. Hai, Qin Fuer, as the general responsibility of the operation, also obeys Zhou Ying's deployment and arrangements, giving priority to all kinds of weapons to meet the needs of the operational forces.

P-18 silenced submachine guns, silenced Mauser sniper rifles, various types of pistols, German and British grenades, mines, 60mm mortars, etc. Zhang Xuewu secretly allocated 20 of the anti-tank rifles he secretly purchased to Qin Buer. This batch of Swiss Solothurn Company used Erhard in World War I. The S18-100 anti-tank rifle developed based on the 20mm machine gun is the most advanced and effective individual anti-tank weapon that Zhang Xuewu can buy. Both the Swiss and Hungarian armies have installed the gun, and the Italian military also has a small amount of equipment and imitated it. The gun adopts a tube retreat automatic mode with a single-shot launch mode. There is a single-legged bracket and a molding base plate behind the gun body, which can absorb a large amount of recoil energy, reduce the impact on the shooter, and maintain effective accuracy. The 20×105mm B-type bullet it fires, also known as the 20mm Solo Thun short bullet, Bottom belt cartridge case, armor-piercing warhead with bottom fuse.

For Zhang Xuewu, this kind of bullet is very advanced now, so the S18-100 anti-tank rifle became one of the most powerful anti-tank rifles in the 1930s. Before the German PzB41 anti-tank rifle came out, it can be said that the S18-100 anti-tank rifle was dominant. The export market of rifles.

However, Zhang Xuewu also knows that as the armor of tanks becomes thicker and thicker, it will be a matter of time before anti-tank rifles withdraw from the anti-tank combat power sequence. However, there is still a market for flexible anti-tank rifles to deal with my thin sheet iron cans in the domestic battlefield. In particular, Zhang Xuewu is also preparing to order a large number of Carls from Germany. Zeiss' special precision scope is equipped with a small-caliber anti-tank rifle produced by itself in the future.

In Zhang Xuewu's view, the current anti-tank rifle is also the predecessor of the anti-equipment sniper rifle in later generations, and there is still a lot of market. As long as the over-precise German PzB41 anti-tank rifle is not produced, the overall balanced production cost is relatively lower than that of anti-tank guns, and the troop equipment training is difficult. The degree is also small.

With experienced special commandos to assist the most advanced weapons, Zhang Xuewu's confidence began to expand, so after quickly finalizing various matters with Zhou Ying, Zhou Ying returned to Shanghai after living in Chengde for a few days. The relationship between Zhou Ying and Zhang Xuewu has long been a secret, so it is hot. A group of senior generals of the River Legion can only envy and hate, and there is no other way.

With the equipment, funds and technical personnel led by Zhou Ying, both the construction of Baotou and the resumption of construction in Chengde are extremely fast. Because of the large amount of capital flows, Chengde and Baotou are also relatively lively. In the past, they did not care about big banks, businesses and even Qinglou Institute in such small places. He also hurriedly took root in Chengde and Baotou. In fact, Zhang Xuewu is still working in two places, one is Zhangjiakou, and the other is Chaoyang!

As the gateway of the Japanese army to the Rehe last time, Zhang Xuewu took advantage of the steep mountains and geographical advantages to build a large number of permanent defense fortifications. There are a large number of lime mines near Chaoyang, which is a necessary condition for firing cement, and Baotou's steel factory in addition to producing In addition to rails and military steel, the largest output is steel bars of various diameters. Most of these materials are used in the construction of Zhangjiakou and Chaoyang. However, the scale of the Baotou Steel Factory, which is being expanded, is still very small, so Zhang Xuewu relies more on purchase.

Nanjing is very satisfied with Zhang Xuewu's practice of diligent training and often reporting, especially his practice of building permanent fortifications in Chaoyang and Zhangjiakou, because once Zhang Xuewu builds fortifications, it shows that he will not take the initiative to provoke war in a short period of time, so that the central government can The political axe focused on solving the serious bandit problems and accelerated the implementation of the whole [***] team's reorganization plan.

Since Chairman Jiang was very relieved, Zhang Xuewu also jumped up and down in Rehe, Chahar and Suiyuan. The troops of the five A divisions frequently carried out exercises and training. For a while, the Rehe Legion was full of morale. Some newspapers were speculated about Zhang Xuewu's counterattack time, because The four A-type armies of the Northeast Army are also carrying out training to adapt to surnames by changing a large number of weapons and equipment for surnames.

However, Zhang Xuewu is not so smooth on the surface. For example, Gao Zhihang he dreamed of was borrowed, but the Flying Bears is the latest brigade of the Northeast Army Air Force, with five instructors and sixty-nine pilots, with an average flight time of 2 hours. Except for the instructors, these so-called pilots have not yet taken off. Zhang After Xueliang's five Italian coach machines were dowrying, Zhang Xuewu's flying bear completely became a hibernating bear, and it was difficult for a skillful woman to cook without rice! Zhang Xuewu doesn't dare to see Gao Zhihang now, because as long as he meets Gao Zhihang, he will raise the problem of the plane.

Zhang Xuewu also knew that he had tried his best to borrow Gao Zhihang. With an eagle, he didn't have a nest? How many old hens have become to lead the chickens to compare the sky on the ground? This is not a matter of high salary, but it depends on your determination. Moreover, the air force is different from the army. This is a money-burning thing, and the effect is extremely slow. The pilot's skill is undoubtedly very important, but the surname of the plane cannot be ignored, so Zhang Xuewu is ready to buy the best!

Zhang Xuewu's eyes are on the Messerschmitt Bf-109 fighter. This fighter is the main fighter of the German Air Force in World War II. Zhang Xuewu has seen Germany [***] recommend this fighter in the direction of China more than once in the Sino-German secret contract. The intention is to save the Bavarian. The bankruptcy of the Leah aircraft manufacturing factory can be said to have used many of the latest and most advanced or avant-garde technologies in the design of the Bf109 fighter, including single wing, all-metal skin, narrow fuselage, recyclable landing gear, closed cockpit, radio communication and so on.
