Wang Xuexin’s last sentence can be said to have directly hit the weakness of Lai Menluokov, or it can also be said to be the weakness of Mao Xiong:
The Eighth Route Army can wait, but Mao Xiong cannot wait.
Mao Xiong desperately needs this repeating rifle.
Because at this time, they were once again beaten by Hans on the front line, and Mao Xiong even formed millions of puppet troops...
There are rumors on the Internet that the Japanese formed the largest puppet army in China during World War II. This is not true. The Mao Xiong puppet army was the largest.
In fact, if calculated in terms of the number of puppet troops per capita, the Chinese puppet army cannot even make it into the top ten, let alone the "biggest". Think about Gaul... It only took 10 months from the declaration of war to the surrender. If we count it from the day the war started, to the surrender
There were only 42 days in that day, and then the entire country's army was basically under Hans' control to fight against the Allies.
Just because Gaul is a Western country, no one discusses how many puppet troops it has.
In the case of Mao Xiong, in the early stages of the war, a large number of troops were surrounded and captured alive by Hans using a "pincer offensive". When the troops were tight, they were directly converted into puppet troops and thrown into the battlefield as cannon fodder.
There are also some people who regard Hans as a liberator and the bear as an invader. These people are sincerely helping Hans fight.
On the other hand, Hans is also waiting for the moment when the ice and snow melt in spring, then they can launch a new offensive against the woolly bears.
Lai Menluokov knew this very well, because at this time Mao Xiong was already actively preparing for war, especially carrying out military reforms to prepare for Hans' next wave of offensive... Mao Xiong had learned lessons from previous defeats, and they believed that they
Although the equipment was more advanced than Hans and the army was larger than Hans, a large part of the reason for the defeat was so miserably due to the unreasonable organization and distribution, which caused the army's wartime command to either be in chaos or to fight independently.
in the state.
It should be said that the Mao Xiong has been quite effective in this regard. For example, they organized the aviation force and incorporated it into the aviation unit for unified command, instead of assigning it to army units like tanks and under the command of each army.
And looking at the current furry bears:
Do they lack cannon?
Mao Xiong's "artillery doctrine" tactics are world-famous.
Do they lack tanks?
Mao Xiong's T34 once caused Hans to have a "T34 crisis", that is, Hans was surprised to find that he did not have any tank that could compete with Mao Xiong's T34.
Is the bear short of planes?
There may have been a shortage in the past, but now with the mass production of "La 5" and the purchase of a large number of fighter planes from Yingjiang and its allies, the balance of air power with Hans has tilted towards the direction of the bear.
After thinking about it... what Mao Xiong lacks most is a suitable rifle, a rifle that can be used in both street fighting and field battles.
This is also the main reason why Mao Xiong did not hesitate to invest in research and development when he heard Wang Xuexin talking about "intermediate power bombs". They really needed this.
But seeing the war coming, the bear has bullets but no rifle!
And this rifle is right in front of him. As long as he gets this rifle, Mao Xiong can double the combat effectiveness of his army. How can this not make Mao Xiong jealous?
This is also the reason why Monrokov took the risk of flying to Liyuan Airport... At this time, Liyuan Airport had just repaired two runways, and it was still unknown whether it could land normally. In addition, Monrokov took the transport plane of the stubborn army.
, if it is accidentally hit, it will be a mute eating yellow lotus.
Things are like this in the business world. If one party is not in a hurry but the other party is in a hurry, then the latter will definitely suffer some losses.
What Laimeng Luokov didn't know was that Wang Xuexin was also anxious. He was eager to use this kind of bullet for the counterattack in the Northeast. What he didn't know was that he knew that he must not show it to Lai Menluokov at this time.
Lai Menluokov was silent for a while, then nodded and said: "Okay, Comrade Head! I'll send a telegram to the General Counsel to get his opinion!"
Wang Xuexin nodded and replied: "Of course!"
This is not a trivial matter, and it cannot be decided by Monrokov, so of course the decision must be made by the general counsel.
In fact, the general counsel cannot make the decision.
The General Counsel was in trouble after hearing Monrokov's report.
Because he was not sure whether this kind of gun was suitable for furry bears... Laimeng Luokov did say that it was suitable, but Lai Menluokov was just one person's opinion. This did not mean that everyone agreed, especially since it required expert verification.
but……
Can you bring a gun like this to Monrokov for experts to verify?
The commander of the Chinese battalion... to be precise, he should be the commander of the Chinese regiment. He wouldn't be stupid enough to ask Monrokov to bring a gun for testing, would he?
Because if it is difficult to do this, Mao Xiong can completely disassemble the gun and then quickly imitate it.
If so, how to confirm this transaction?
Finally, after thinking for a while, the general counsel decided to kick the ball to the country... that is, he sent a telegram to the country saying that this was what happened.
The general counsel thought that it would take at least a few days for a response, because in the past it would take a period of discussion before the results of the discussion were finally communicated.
But I didn't expect that not long after the General Counsel's telegram was sent out... only more than half an hour later, the information from Mao Xiong came.
The person who sent the telegram was the deputy supreme commander.
The Supreme Deputy Commander almost said to the General Counsel in a filial tone in the telegram: "Oh my god, you still ask? Do you still need to consider? Do you know what this is? If the Eighth Route Army can use this rifle and also uses it,
This kind of bullet can defeat a Japanese brigade with only a few regiments of troops and several artillery units. Do you know what this means? It means that they are very useful, my Comrade General Counsel! And they will probably surpass you.
My imagination, do you understand?"
Then while the general counsel was preparing, the Supreme Deputy Commander sent another telegram: "In addition, I don't know if you have considered whether it would be beneficial to us if we let the Eighth Route Army have this kind of bullet production line? Should we just
There is no need to worry about border issues? Also, will the failure of the Japanese indirectly increase the pressure on Hans? All of this, even if this rifle is indeed not suitable for us in the end, it will be beneficial to our army. What's more,
If this rifle works for us, we'll make a lot more money!"
Only then did the general counsel realize that he had made a mistake.
There is no need to ask at all, but it should be decided as soon as possible.
In other words, as the Supreme Deputy Commander said, whether it is from the perspective of national strategy or the needs of the military, regardless of whether this rifle is suitable for Mao Xiong, this transaction is worth doing.
And, there is no doubt about it.
Therefore, the general adviser immediately gave Laimenluokov an order: "Agree to the request of comrade head!"
