Chapter 716: Elephant Tank

The "** theory" was put forward when the United States, Japan and Britain wanted to plan a new round of Pacific War, especially after Bai Liusu led the Central First Army to enter Egypt on a large scale and participated in the Egyptian civil war. The idea of ​​"God's whip" has become popular among the upper-class white people in Europe. Fortunately, this time coincided with the outbreak of the "Wife Revolution" in the United States, which attracted a lot of attention. Otherwise, Chen Shichang and his Wu Daotianwang aircraft carrier fleet should not go so smoothly in the Mediterranean, and Giovanni and Franco will not express their position so quickly and side with the "United Nations Army".

The initiator of the super bomb is Ouyang Yun, and it has been used in actual combat and was used to teach Japan a lesson. As the initiator, Ouyang Yun naturally understands that the true meaning of the super bomb is deterrence, so he will He restrained his strong desire for revenge and did not continue to bomb the Japanese mainland.

Tapping the fingers of his right hand on the table, he pondered and said: "Lin Fei is right, the population in Europe is too dense, and it is easy to accidentally injure civilians if you use super bombs rashly. In that case, it will have a great negative impact on our international image. Influence, Lao Li has arrived in Berlin, let's wait for news from him. In addition, I suggest opening more export licenses to Germany. Golden eagles can be supplied in unlimited quantities if they need it and are willing to agree to our trade terms."

The butt determines the head. Whichever position you sit in, you will have what kind of responsibility. Therefore, even if Ouyang Yun has a good impression of the Germans and it is related to the national interest, he will still remain calm enough to ensure that the national interest comes first. In today's China, are German products or German technology still attractive? The answer is yes, metal material technology, hydraulic precision technology... Although Ouyang Yun has not personally participated in the work of Xuebing R&D Institute, he also knows For the basic industry, the technical staff headed by Hou Debang have put in so much effort, and even if the Xuebing Army's standard weapons have excellent performance, why have they not been sought after by almost all countries around the world like the US-made weapons and equipment in that time and space? The reason is because of their use The service life is generally relatively low, so it is extremely expensive in terms of cost performance.

While Ouyang Yun and others were concentrating on the Battle of Petergosh in Chongqing, Li Tieshu was sitting in a military camp in Berlin, visiting a confrontation training accompanied by Falkenhausen.

Regarding the arrival of Li Tieshu and his party of Chinese soldiers, if the Germans, from Brauchitsch to ordinary privates, did not feel much at first, now, as bad news continues to come from the front line, the Germans are facing Li Tieshu and others. The arrogance and self-confidence of the past are completely gone. Brauchitsch personally issued an order to recall Falkenhausen, an "old friend of the Chinese people" personally recognized by Ouyang Yun, from the aircraft carrier fleet Wu Dao Tian Wang. This is the best proof. .

China's Mandrill got off to a bad start, which caused the major countries in this time and space to start desperately focusing on heavy-duty tank development. In addition, the Germans were not defeated in World War II like they were in that time and space, and they still had quite rich strategies. resources, so the "Elephant" tank, which originally had no chance to go to the front line in that time and space, has been perfected in the hands of the Germans, and has begun to replace the "Tiger" tanks currently in service in Germany, and has a tendency to become Germany's new main tank.

The two armored companies currently fighting on the field are using improved "Elephant" tanks. In that time and space, the "Elephant" was a tank destroyer that completely pursued defense and firepower. Its biggest feature was that it was sufficient The weight of, well, the weight of 68 tons can indeed ensure that it is better than all heavy tanks today in terms of dead weight. In this time and space, after improvements, the dead weight of the "Elephant" type has been weakened, and it has become Sixty-one tons, and even so, it is the heaviest tank in the world today.

Two "Elephant" tank companies were fighting each other inextricably on the training ground. Falkenhausen originally looked proud, but after noticing Li Tieshu's frown, he was slightly stunned, and then asked: " General Li, you don't seem to be optimistic about the Elephant tank."

Li Tieshu really doesn't like the Xiangshi. In his opinion, although the Xiangshi's defense is strong enough, its speed is too slow, with a maximum speed of 27 kilometers per hour, which is not even as good as the domestic self-propelled howitzer. So, on the battlefield On the topic, he expressed his doubts about how to restrain the flexible tactics of Soviet tanks. At the end, he added: "General Falkenhausen, we know that victory cannot be achieved by relying solely on tank troops on the battlefield. What I want to know is how your army will respond once the Soviet Russians adopt the leap-frog tactic and give up direct combat with your army's elephant-like base."

It was a bit embarrassing. After all, Falkenhausen knew that after the Tiger was restrained by the Soviet T34, the Elephant had actually become a life-saving straw in the hearts of the Wehrmacht bosses. "They will be used for defense, so The Soviets have no chance to implement the leapfrog tactic." After thinking about it, he said.

"However, the purpose of tanks is mainly for offense and blitz warfare. Isn't this the characteristic of your country's tank force? Moreover, even for defense, it is too bulky. If I were Zhukov, what would I do against the Xiangshi? There is no need to send out tanks to fight hard."

"No tanks." Falkenhausen's eyes widened.

"Yes, anti-tank rockets. With anti-tank rockets, it can easily lose its mobility. What is the use of a tank that has lost its mobility?"

Anti-tank rockets were, of course, the invention of the people from Xuebing R&D Institute. What Ouyang Yun did not expect was that because of its low technical difficulty, the Chinese army had not yet used anti-tank rockets to show its prestige. It was copied by the Soviets. With anti-tank rockets, it is no longer so difficult for infantry to fight tanks. In addition, the cost of this weapon is low, and the Soviets have no shortage of people. In fact, in In the early days of the Battle of Petrogorzha, the Germans had already suffered heavy losses here.

The Germans had a purpose for arranging for Li Tieshu and his men to visit the confrontation training of two Elephant tank companies. One reason was that they wanted Li Tieshu to help with reference and evaluate the performance of this new tank; the other reason was because the Germans Domestic production capacity is insufficient, and I hope China can help with manufacturing. This may be due to the blitzkrieg. The Germans are particularly obsessed with tanks. Therefore, after the consecutive defeats in the Battle of Petrogosh, they attributed the reason to the fact that armored fighting vehicles are not as good as those of the Soviets. Tanks that are stronger and have greater gun power have naturally become the pursuit of the Germans.
