Chapter 201 The embarrassment of the German government
Standing on the famous waterfront pier in Berlin, Germany were Colonel Hans and another German officer who had returned from China for a while. At this time, they were standing next to the pier and staring into the distance.
Colonel Hans was wearing a straight army uniform today and his military boots were polished. He stood under a ginkgo tree and looked at the seaside. He stood calmly and motionless. The unique calmness of the Germans was vividly reflected in his body.
.And another German officer, also wearing an army uniform, was walking back and forth a little restlessly.
"Hans, are you sure those Chinese people can arrive at nine o'clock? It's already 8:58 in the morning." This officer has a typical German appearance, tall and thin,
He had blue eyes, blond hair, and a cold and handsome appearance. At this time, he frequently raised his wrist to look at the time, and asked Hans impatiently.
Hans turned back and looked at the officer with a slightly reproachful look and said: "John, we can't expect a cargo ship that has sailed more than 13,000 kilometers to reach its destination in every second. Because this is the only way to reach the destination.
It is something that only God can do. It is a very gratifying and remarkable thing that they can reach Germany safely from the storm on the sea."
"But judging from the telegram they sent last night, this is the time they were talking about, wasn't it?" the officer named John said somewhat unconvinced.
Hans sighed softly and stared at John for a while before slowly saying: "John, I know you have always looked down on these Chinese people, but I want to tell you, what you usually hear with your ears is even
What you see online may not be the truth of the matter. You have never been to that ancient and mysterious country, so your current understanding of them is still in the Manchu era with big braids."
Hans paused and then continued: "But Hans, I want to tell you, you are wrong. Society is developing rapidly, and so are the Chinese people. I used to go to the Siberian battlefield with the same idea as you.
But after arriving in Siberia, I found that the Chinese people are completely different from what we usually hear and see in Germany."
John said in a slightly sarcastic tone: "What's the difference, my dear Colonel Hans, can they suddenly fly?"
"John" Hans shouted sternly: "I don't know why you have such a big prejudice against the Chinese, but I want to tell you that the Chinese soldiers I saw in Siberia are no better in quality than our German Empire."
Soldiers are poor. They can be said to be better than us in some aspects. They are hard-working, brave and tenacious. They fully possess the qualities of an excellent soldier. You should not look at them with such a pair of colored glasses. If for a while
If there are any changes in the cooperation between our government and the Chahar government due to your impoliteness, I will definitely report it to the head of state truthfully."
Just as Colonel Hans was reprimanding his colleague, a long whistle sounded from the sea. The two saw that the freighter they had been waiting for had finally arrived.
When the huge cargo ship of more than 6,000 tons named Steyr docked at the dock, the two stopped their unpleasant conversation.
After the ship docked safely, several soldiers wearing neat and straight uniforms of the Chahar 37th Army Army slowly got off the ship.
As soon as Zhou Zhen, the combat commander of the Chahar 1st Armored Division, and several officers got off the ship, they saw two German officers waiting by the stairs.
Seeing Lieutenant Colonel Zhou Zhen and several officers disembarking from the ship, Colonel Hans hurriedly greeted them. Hans was the first to salute. In Germany, superiors salute first to subordinates, and Zhou Zhen quickly returned the salute.
Hans first smiled and said in blunt Chinese: "Hello guests from China, I am Hans Zmir, colonel and staff officer of the German Imperial Staff, and this is my colleague Johann Olfgang von Goethe.
Colonel, please allow me to welcome you on behalf of the German Imperial Staff."
"Thank you, Colonel Hans." Zhou Zhen said in German without being humble or overbearing: "I am Zhou Zhen, staff officer of the 1st Armored Division of the 37th Group Army of the Chinese Nationalist Army Chahar. Please allow me to introduce my colleagues to you.
, This is Captain Cheng Kai of the 2nd Armored Division of the 37th Group Army, this is Second Lieutenant Fan Bingbing, and this is Major Liu Weiming of the Special Reconnaissance Brigade."
Zhou Zhen greeted Colonel Hans and Lieutenant Colonel John one by one. Lieutenant Colonel John's behavior at this time also seemed quite satisfactory, but the careful Zhou Zhen could still see a hint of arrogance in his eyes.
At this time, a group of German soldiers came down from the dock. They supervised the workers on the dock and quickly unloaded large iron cabinets from the Steyr, although it was impossible to see what the iron cabinets contained.
, but it can be seen from the crane at the dock lowering the things that they are very heavy.
The efficiency of the Germans was truly incredible. In less than half an hour, dozens of heavy iron cabinets were loaded onto large, specially-made flatbed trucks and transported away.
Seeing that the goods had been transported away, Colonel Hans smiled and extended his hand to invite Zhou Zhen and the others to get into the two Mercedes-Benz cars that were slowly driving from the side.
Zhou Zhen smiled and shook his head, turning his head to the side. At this moment, three vehicles with strange shapes for this era drove out from behind them.
Zhou Zhen pointed to a car with a smile and said: "Colonel Hans, there are two cars here that our Commander Su gave to your Excellency the Head of State, and the remaining one was given to you by our Commander Su.
A gift to thank you for your unremitting efforts and outstanding contributions to the friendship between China and Germany."
"Oh thank you, it's so beautiful. I like it very much." Colonel Hans looked at the manly car in front of him in surprise. Yes, this is the four-wheel drive jeep unique to the Chahar military. Colonel Hans was inspecting
Hal Shi had ridden one before. At that time, he was impressed by the Jeep's excellent off-road capabilities and powerful horsepower. Now that he can own such a jeep, don't be surprised.
Everyone walked to the side of the three new cars. Colonel Hans asked: "Lieutenant Colonel Zhou, can I drive it now?"
Zhou Zhen smiled: "Of course, it is already yours." After saying that, he took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and gave them to Colonel Hans and Fan Bingbing and Cheng Kai who were next to him.
Colonel Hans took the keys and got into the car and quickly started the engine. Listening to the steady and powerful sound of the engine, Hans couldn't help but said happily: "That's it, Lieutenant Colonel Zhou. To tell you the truth, since the last time I was in the car,
Ever since I saw this car in Siberia, I have always wanted to own one, and now my dream has finally come true.”
At this time, Lieutenant Colonel John, who had been standing by silently, saw this scene in his eyes, and a strange color flashed in his sky-blue eyes.
With the powerful roar of the jeep, the group quickly left the pier and headed towards the city center.
After several cars sped away, two figures emerged from a big tree near the pier. One of them stared at the direction of the motorcade until they lost sight of them, then turned around and said: "Ogawa-kun,
Immediately after returning, a report was sent to the base camp. The Chahar government sent four officers to Germany, accompanied by thirty large iron cabinets and three small vehicles called jeeps produced by Chahar. They
The purpose of this trip is unknown and we are conducting follow-up observations.”
Siberia Chita Su Tong and Bai Chongxi were slowly sipping tea in the office.
"Well, good tea." Bai Chongxi couldn't help but admire after taking a sip of tea: "The color is clear and bright, and the aftertaste of drinking it is rich and mellow, which makes people salivate. It is indeed a good tea."
Su Tong glanced at the deputy chief of staff who always came to him to chat with him and said angrily: "Okay, my deputy chief of staff, this is the best Lu'an Guapian. My father-in-law brought it to me specially. I
I haven’t had a few sips yet, so don’t drink them all for me.”
Bai Chongxi laughed: "Okay, Jianming, I don't know about you yet. In fact, the most suitable thing for you is a big bowl of tea worth three copper coins. That's not called drinking tea. It should be called cow drinking."
That's right. It would be a waste of money to drink such good tea for you."
After the two chatted for a while, Bai Chongxi got to the point: "Jianming, you said that Hitler sent a telegram this time and asked us to send several armored officers to teach them the theory of armored assault. I can understand this. After all,
The actual combat experience of our current armored forces can be said to be at the forefront of the world. But why did he urgently request 30 more Siberian Tiger tanks from us? According to the last agreement, didn't they take away all the information about the Siberian Tigers?
Yet"
Su Tong smiled mysteriously when he heard this and said: "Of course there is a reason, because they still can't make the heart of the northwest tiger."
Yes, Hitler is very angry during this time. The boss is very angry, and the consequences will be serious.
Since the last time Colonel Hans brought all the manufacturing technology of the Siberian Tiger tank and three liang physical tanks back to Germany, the German experts were ecstatic. They immediately began to conduct experiments. During the experiment, they evaluated this tank
Wei: This is a tank that has never appeared in my dreams. It is an epoch-making change. We can't believe that there is such a perfect thing in the world. It has strong firepower and strong speed.
Perfect protection, with it, all our previous designs can be thrown into the trash can.
Hitler was overjoyed and quickly ordered the trial production of this tank. However, problems arose after the trial production. The scientists were embarrassed to find that a key item manufactured by their factory did not meet the requirements on the drawings.
