Just when Staff Officer Ye was on the verge of death, Lemon Lokov spoke. He stared at Wang Xuexin with a pair of blue eyes and muttered words that Wang Xuexin could not understand.
Staff Officer Ye translated the original words to Wang Xuexin: "We want to know one thing, do you have more advanced rocket launchers?"
Wang Xuexin was stunned. He originally thought that Maozi came for incendiary bombs, but he didn't expect that he came for rocket launchers.
But when I think about it, it feels normal.
The opponent of the furry bear was Hans. At the beginning of the war, Hans used tanks to fight several beautiful blitzes, which made the furry bear miserable.
Therefore, what Mao Xiong wants more is anti-tank equipment instead of incendiary bombs.
Wang Xuexin's guess was correct.
At this time, Mao Xiong's military attache and general military adviser in China was Mao Xiong's famous general Chui Kefu.
Although the General Counsel is in China as the General Counsel, he has been paying attention to the domestic war situation... This reaction is normal. Mao Xiong's help to China is actually based on his own interests.
As the saying goes, "The enemy of your enemy is your friend." If China can consume or hold back more Japanese, it means that the Japanese will pose less of a threat to Mao Xiong.
Before that, the general counsel might still be able to provide help to China wholeheartedly, but now that the domestic war has begun, he will of course turn his attention to the country.
So the general counsel soon learned a terrible reality: at the beginning of the war, Mao Xiong had lost most of its air power. Then, Hans used absolute air superiority to coordinate with the ground armored troops to launch a fierce attack and defeated Mao Xiong.
Thousands of miles.
This is related to Mao Xiong's loss of air supremacy. Without air supremacy, tanks lose air cover and often become targets for enemy bombers and ground attack aircraft.
It is also related to Mao Xiong's wrong tactics in using tanks... Mao Xiong assigned tanks to infantry, causing the tanks to be too scattered. The result was that although Mao Xiong's tanks were advanced, they were always surrounded by enemies and were destroyed.
The general counsel is thinking about a question: How can we solve this deadlock!
Regain air supremacy?
This is obviously unrealistic. Producing fighter jets and training pilots cannot be completed in a short period of time, but the current war situation is imminent.
Reform tank tactics?
Although this path is feasible, changing tactics during wartime will often cause the troops to fall into chaos. It requires a period of training and running-in, and you cannot rush for quick success.
Add anti-tank guns?
It doesn't seem to be a good choice, because the anti-tank gun target is too large and can easily become the target of enemy aircraft, infantry, artillery and even tanks.
While the general counsel was in a state of distress, he suddenly remembered that the Chongqing army seemed to have purchased a type of individual anti-tank equipment during this period, called...a rocket launcher.
The general counsel originally dismissed the rocket launcher.
He even said to his men: "That's just an anti-tank grenade mounted on a rocket!"
The reason why the general counsel has such a disdainful attitude...
One is that he believes that anti-tank requires more air power and tanks themselves, and the Bear has these, so there is no need to consider such a simple individual weapon.
The other is that the general counsel knows that Mao Xiong possesses rocket weapons, and they are much more advanced than such rocket weapons.
But now...
The general counsel suddenly discovered that only this kind of equipment could save the bear from danger.
The reason is that individual soldier equipment does not need to worry about the enemy's air power. The enemy pilot cannot see clearly whether the infantry is holding a rocket launcher or a rifle, not to mention that the infantry usually fights lying on the ground.
In the same way, the enemy's artillery, infantry, tanks, etc. cannot stop the rocket launcher... Because the rocket launcher shooter mixes with the infantry or even hides in the bunker to fight, no one can completely prevent this thing from approaching the tank.
Thinking of this, the general counsel immediately asked someone to get some rocket launchers from the stubborn army.
But the results of the test disappointed the general counsel... The armor-piercing ability of this rocket launcher is only a dozen millimeters, which may be enough on the Chinese battlefield but cannot stop Hans' tanks.
But the general counsel thought:
The rocket launcher was sold to the stubborn army by the Eighth Route Army. According to his experience, the seller of the weapon would often keep one hand, that is, sell the low-end version and keep the more advanced high-end version to maintain its technical advantage.
Therefore, the general counsel sent someone to contact the Eighth Route Army with the intention of giving it a try.
How could the general counsel have thought that due to the limitations of conditions and technology, the Eighth Route Army sold not only a low-end version but also a high-end version... The stubborn army had stronger industrial capabilities and was filled with smokeless explosives, so the stubborn army had
Rocket launchers are more powerful.
But that's not necessarily the case now.
Wang Xuexin immediately thought of the hollow charge technology that Skinny exchanged... It has an armor-piercing capability of more than 100 millimeters, which can definitely meet Maozi's needs.
Therefore, Wang Xuexin nodded firmly and replied: "Yes, of course!"
"What is the depth of armor penetration?" Lemonlokov asked again.
"About a hundred millimeters!" Wang Xuexin replied.
Lemon Lokov's eyes widened immediately, and then he shook his head and said: "No, this is impossible! Did you increase the warhead? Did you use high explosives?"
It's no wonder that Lemon Lokov has such an expression. The armor penetration depth jumping from a dozen millimeters to more than a hundred millimeters is no joke.
If there is really an armor penetration depth of more than 100 millimeters, it means that no tank in the world has enough armor to withstand rocket launchers.
"No, Major!" Wang Xuexin replied: "We are using another technology, do you need to see it?"
After hearing Wang Xuexin's words, Li Yunlong's originally smiling expression froze on his face.
He thought Wang Xuexin was lying, but when he saw that Wang Xuexin was so sure and confident... was there really a rocket launcher that could penetrate 100 mm armor?
Actually there is.
But Wang Xuexin played a little trick.
This is a project that Skinner and Wang Xuexin are collaborating on.
During this period, since the laboratory equipment requested by Skinny had not yet arrived, Skinny was unable to modify and test the Citi version of the rocket launcher, so at Wang Xuexin's suggestion, he verified the feasibility of using the hollow charge on the Chinese version of the rocket launcher.
.
This is very simple to do. You only need to remove the warhead of the Citi rocket and install the rocket thruster.
Wang Xuexin even tried firing a few rounds and was very satisfied with the results.
"Of course!" Lemon Lokov replied, while giving Wang Xuexin a dubious look.
He still didn't believe that any individual equipment could actually have a 100mm armor-breaking capability. This was something that even a furry bear couldn't do.
He even didn't believe that the Eighth Route Army had such technology.
Just kidding, China's industry is several generations behind Mao Xiong, and the Eighth Route Army is China's weakest army.
Lemon Lokov thought, they must be bragging, or maybe they are drunk!
