Chapter 342 The road to liberation

Do you still need to say this?

Zhu Xianhai said heartily that he knows the advantages of cars better than anyone else.

After all, he himself comes from the automobile era. Is the advantage of automobiles just transportation?

Of course it's not just transportation.

The advantages in transportation are simply the advantages of automobiles over horse-drawn carriages.

What are the more important advantages of cars?

It's industry!

The automobile industry is even the leader in driving modern manufacturing. The development of the automobile industry has promoted the manufacturing industry in a way that people of this era cannot imagine. In the 20th century, it was even called the crown of the industrial pyramid. It is an industry

Industries with a relatively long chain can drive upstream steel and machinery, and downstream can drive energy, transportation, financial services, etc., and have an extremely huge influence on the national economy.

Otherwise, no one in this era would be aware of the power contained in the automobile industry. In fact, many industries were like this at the beginning of their development. Not many people knew what kind of impact it would have on human society.

Just like in this era, countries are rushing to develop railways. When railways and trains first appeared, they did not realize much about the changes they brought to the world.

But what now?

Everyone knows the importance of railways to the country. Railways in this era are also the leader in industrial and economic development.

What is different from other countries now is that in addition to the railway, Nanhua has a new faucet. Of course, no one will realize the power contained in this faucet now.

Because it does look very weak.

Indeed, for now, this truck is not good enough at all. Its load capacity is not as good as a standard military carriage. Nanhua's military carriage uses an American-style Western four-wheel carriage, and its load capacity can reach five tons.

It is the most powerful weapon for the United States to conquer the West.

But what about "one-size-fits-all trucks"?

Only 1.2 tons!

But even if it’s not enough, it’s still a good start!

"Yes, what you mentioned are all its advantages. As long as there is gasoline, it can keep driving. Even if the load capacity is much less, it has the advantage of speed, plus the use time.

Advantages will definitely replace horse-drawn carriages in the future, but..."

Zhu Xianhai said after taking a closer look at the truck, which looked a bit like a Ford A.

"We need to find ways to increase its load capacity. After all, not only the military needs trucks with large load capacity, but civilians also need trucks with a large load capacity. Well..."

He opened the document and looked at the drawing carefully. Suddenly, Zhu Xianhai's eyes lit up and he picked up the pen and revised it.

"Can you try to improve the rear wheels and turn them into parallel wheels? After adding two wheels, the load capacity should be improved."

What inspired him was not the trucks he had seen before, but some agricultural vehicles. They increased the load capacity by adding wheels. This is a simple and effective method, as long as the load capacity can be increased, then its scope of application

It will be wider and easier to replace horse-drawn carriages.

"Oh, what my lord said is very true. After the official returns to the company, he will let people test it. However, my lord, if it is put into production, then call it "Car No. 1". Please give me a name."

Wang Jiamin came to the front line not just to tell his master that the car had been built, but what was the most important thing?

Of course, I asked the Lord to give me his name.

With the name given by the Lord, what kind of car will this car be in the future?

Although the car is still a car, the identity is completely different. As the manager of Nanhe Locomotive Company, Wang Jiamin has his own views and opinions on business.

In the future, as the identity of the lord changes, this car will surely rise as the tide rises!

"Give me a name, well, let me think about it!"

Take a look at the photo of "No. 1 Trial Truck" in the folder. Although it looks a bit primitive and crude, after thinking about it for a while, Zhu Xianhai still wrote.

"Just call it 'liberation'!"

Most Chinese people have a special emotion for the car name "Liberation", and so does Zhu Xianhai. Of course, Zhu Xianhai gave it another meaning here.

"Liberation... Well, once finalized, it will be called "Liberation Type A Truck". In the future, our army may drive it to liberate South America!"

This is what "liberation" means!

Liberation is not just a car, it is a desire.

Conqueror of South America?

No!

That's what the Spanish colonists did.

In Zhu Xianhai's view, he will be the liberator. Those who will be liberated are not only the Indians living on this land, but also the European immigrants and their mixed-race descendants. This liberation will of course free them from the "test"

Freed from the servitude of the trinity of warlords, big landowners and the Church under the "Diro System".

So, there is absolutely nothing wrong with naming this truck "Liberation".

Well, liberation... this can be regarded as a famous example!

Nodding with satisfaction, Zhu Xianhai looked at the car name he just wrote and smiled.

"Well, let's trial-produce 100 Jiefang A-type trucks first and give them to the army for trial use!"

Since it is the liberation cause of the people of South America, how can the Liberation Auto be absent? With a stroke of his pen, Zhu Xianhai issued the first car order in human history. Later, he even discussed the production of cars with him with great interest.

.

"When Buenos Aires is liberated, it will probably be quite shocking to see these cars leading the way into the city."

However, compared to the shock it brought to the world, Zhu Xianhai hoped that the car could truly play its role in the war.

"The key is to win this battle! I don't know how the preparations are over there!"

Zhu Xianhai's so-called "exchange of ideas" is actually to invest in airship troops and use airships to carry out air strikes on Trenkraken. The air strikes may not necessarily completely destroy the fortress, but what is certain is that it can definitely bring harm to the people in the fortress.

Unprecedented severe trauma, especially psychological trauma.

Since cannons are temporarily useless, let's use airships!

Through observing several combat operations of the airship unit recently, Zhu Xianhai found that their thinking was still subject to certain restrictions and they could give full play to the power of the airship.

In this case, let me remind you.



Wang Xinyue had no idea that when he commissioned the steel company to cast the casing of the new bomb, a series of aerial bombs ranging from 10 kilograms to 2500 kilograms had been produced in Nanhua's arsenal. They did not design these aerial bombs.

The drawings provided by Zhu Xianhai, the so-called drawings are the drawings he drew casually.

The technology of the iron bomb itself is very simple, and it is still an iron bomb of this era.

When the giant aerial bomb weighing 2,500 kilograms was delivered to the airship field by carriage, everyone including Wang Xinyue was stunned by the giant aerial bomb.

"Here, how much does this bomb weigh?"

"2500 kilograms!"

The officer delivering the ammunition replied directly.

"This is a general-purpose bomb. The explosive charge is 50% of the bomb weight, which is 1,250 kilograms. Its detonation power is extremely powerful..."

Does this need explanation?

1,250 kilograms of explosives!

It is hard to imagine how powerful the explosion of so many explosives is, but they know very well how much the 120mm and 150mm charges dropped in the past... only about 10%.

Even for the 10-inch Krug gun, the shell weighs hundreds of kilograms, and the charge is only a few dozen kilograms, and the charge factor is not even 8%. This is normal in artillery shells. Aerial bombs do not need it.

Considering issues such as chamber pressure, the bomb shell can be made thin, and the charge of the high-explosive bomb can even reach 75%! In other words, it is basically an air-dropped explosive package.

The power of such explosive packets dropped from the air is naturally extremely amazing.

"Team, captain, what are we going to do next?"

Looking at the surprisingly large bomb, Xia Weidong couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

"If such explosives were thrown down, there wouldn't be many people who could breathe for miles around!"

pant……

It's possible that not a single living person could be seen within a radius of several miles. Of course, this is definitely an exaggeration, but looking at such a big bomb, no one would doubt it even if it were a little more exaggerated.

Touching the giant bomb that was several meters long, Wang Xinyue felt that his design was simply not worth mentioning, because the bomb was indeed very big!

Who on earth could imagine building such a big bomb!

You must know that he has never dared to think of such a big thing. Now, not only has someone thought of it, but they have also created it.

"Imagination is limited, really limited..."

Although Wang Xinyue knew that the airship could carry 2.8 tons, he had never thought of using it to drop such a giant bomb. After all, it was too big...

This is a 2500 kilogram giant bomb!

If this were cast, how spectacular the scene would be!

"However, Captain, our bomb delivery window seems to be much smaller than it. If we want to release it, we probably need to expand the bomb delivery bay."

As soon as Xia Weidong finished speaking, Wang Xinyue said.

"change!"

"What?"

Xia Weidong, who was a little confused, didn't even react for a while.

"Change what?"

"Change the pop-up window and try to throw this big guy down within two days..."

Wang Xinyue forcefully patted the giant creature next to him and said excitedly.

"With such a big guy, it would be a shame to God if we didn't use it."

No, I'm not sorry to God, but I'm sorry to those Argentinians. They were definitely lucky to be killed by such a huge bomb.

"This is not easy to change. This bomb is so big..."

Xia Weidong looked at the bomb with a bit of embarrassment. It was a bit difficult to put such a big bomb into an airship, let alone drop it.

"It's not easy to change, so we have to find ways to change it."

Wang Xinyue's eyes became a little fanatical, like a boy seeing a new toy, and he was completely immersed in this big toy...
