The General Staff Wargame Deduction was conducted for three days, but Li Weiguo only listened for a long time before leaving.

In his opinion, the first half of the war chess is the most important, with an affinity rate of more than 70% or 80%, but the second half will not exceed 50%.

This is because the war is changing rapidly, and no one can guarantee that it will be 100% carried out according to the method of war chess. It is impossible to win 100%. No matter how powerful a country is, it may not necessarily be able to completely defeat a weak country. What's more, it is facing the entire Allied camp. Being able to win a draw and a miserable victory is enough for Li Weiguo to burn incense.

Of course, these words are impossible to say to others, as long as Li Weiguo himself knows it.

War is about to break out. Li Weiguo appears to be calm, but he is also a little nervous.

The art of war says: You cannot raise troops if you are angry.

However, Li Weiguo was preparing to raise troops to Japan because of the arrival of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, which violated a military taboo.

But Li Weiguo did not regret it. If he could not act casually, he would have no fun rebirth.

However, since he knew that he should not raise anger and raise an army, he naturally had to remedy and prevent.

Fortunately, Li Weiguo did not demand an immediate war against Japan, but there was still nearly half a year of war preparation time.

The Japanese Navy's ship review ceremony was held on September 17th, and that day in history was the same day when the Japanese Navy attacked the Beiyang Navy and provoked the Sino-Japanese War of 1894.

Such a coincidence also made Li Weiguo think in his heart that this is the meaning of his rebirth. Even God arranged this way, which strengthened Li Weiguo's confidence.

Of course, the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 broke out and the world war was probably inseparable, so Li Weiguo personally went to the secret base of the 51st District of the Northern Theater Command.

The last time we arrived in Zone 51, the planes and tanks had been developed successfully. Although they looked ugly and heavy, they were a good start.

Now that Li Weiguo is in charge of the emperor again, the two major weapons of aircraft and tank have made great progress.

According to Li Weiguo's idea, if the progress of the Imperial Army during the World War was not smooth, then these two major killing weapons would be used.

The plane covered the sky in the sky, and the tanks were like a torrent of steel on the ground, rushing towards the enemy like a rush of mountains and seas, which would inevitably lead to destruction of Gula.

This is the final killer move. Li Weiguo didn't want to use it too early before he had to.

Because these killer weapons that can change history are exposed too early, the earlier Western countries will imitate and develop them. This is a huge threat to the Chinese Empire, because the fewer killer weapons will be in hand, and the fewer chips will be used to check and balance the Western world in the future. If one day Western countries suddenly use a terrifying killer weapon and Li Weiguo has no way to compete, the result will be disastrous.

I have to say that Li Weiguo thought a lot and considered it very comprehensively. As an emperor, he would benefit the descendants of the Chinese generation in the future. Just like Mao Taizu, everyone opposed him tightening his belt to make nuclear weapons, but he still insisted on his own. The people of the whole country worked hard for ten years and saved money to finally develop nuclear weapons successfully. From then on, they were not threatened by nuclear weapons and won 50 years of peaceful development for China. It can be said that until today, people at that time understood how wise Mao Taizu was. If there were no nuclear weapons, haha, the result could be imagined. Look at North Korea, if there were no nuclear weapons, do the United States beat him? The truth is the same.

When he came to District 51 again, Li Weiguo, accompanied by Hua Hengfang and others, went directly to the tank test site.

The tank project team immediately drove out their latest successfully developed tanks and performed for Li Weiguo in actual combat.

On the shooting range, a huge tank slowly advanced, making a deafening roar.

"Your Majesty, this is our latest T-type tank!"

A staff member pointed to the tank on the shooting range and gave Li Weiguo a detailed introduction.

T-type tank, in which t is the first letter of the tank. Because the term tank was invented by Li Weiguo, researchers naturally have to call it a tank. The number behind refers to the first model, indicating that 22 tank models have been studied before, which shows how hard the scientific researchers have been in the research of tanks in recent years.

"T-type tank, with a total combat weight of 22 tons, a front armor of 30 mm, equipped with a 37 mm short-body barrel cannon and a lightning heavy machine gun, an eight-cylinder diesel engine with a power of 182 horsepower, a maximum road speed of 20 kilometers per hour, and an off-road speed of 6 kilometers per hour."

Looking at this big guy, although Li Weiguo was not very satisfied, he had no intention of blame.

He knew very well that as the first country in the world to develop tanks, there was no successful experience to learn from, and it was all up to these scientists to explore it themselves.

The guidance that Li Weiguo could provide to them could only be on paper and on the theoretical structure of the tank.

You should know that the tanks that Li Weiguo knew were all advanced tanks in later generations, but they could not be built in this era.

For example, Li Weiguo asked them to build 300 mm armor, equipped with 120 smoothbore cannons, and a tank with a speed of 60 kilometers per hour, which would definitely not be built.

Because of the limited technology in this era, for example, the current T-tank has only 30mm armor and a 37mm short-barrel gun, but its load capacity is 22 tons, and its size is huge, two laps larger than the later 99b heavy tank.

This has subverted Li Weiguo's concept of tanks.

Fortunately, the overall appearance is very similar to modern tanks, turrets and chassis are designed according to the tank appearance concept proposed by Li Weiguo.

As for why it is so heavy and huge, the first thing is that the engine power is insufficient. In order to increase the power, the cylinder can only be increased, which invisibly increases the volume and weight.

Then there are various tank parts and equipment. The reason why tank sizes in later generations became smaller and smaller is that various parts were constantly optimized. This was the result of continuous improvement by hundreds of thousands of tank experts over several generations. At present, scientists in the Chinese Empire do not have that high wisdom and technology.

Use the simplest example to understand that the transistors developed by the Chinese Empire are as big as beer bottles, while the transistors a hundred years later are only the size of rice grains, and even nano-scale transistors that are invisible to the naked eye. The gap between them is billions of times.

The same is true. At present, as the first country to study tanks, the Chinese Empire naturally has to go through these paths of continuous detours and continuous improvement, which is inevitable.

However, overall, Li Weiguo thought of the giant tanks of houses on the European battlefield during World War I. The T-type tanks are now very excellent, leaving behind several streets in the Western world.

"Has this tank been equipped with a gyroscope and suspension system?"

The tank's gyroscope and suspension system are the most critical technology and are also the issue that Li Weiguo is most concerned about.

Hua Hengfang replied: "The gyroscope has been successfully developed and installed on the T21 tank. However, its size is too large and the current engine power cannot be supported. It moves as slowly as a snail. This T-tank has a suspension system installed. I wonder if it is what His Majesty thinks."

With Hua Hengfang's finger, Li Weiguo saw the so-called "suspension" system. He shook his head. This was not the tank suspension system he remembered.

Hua Hengfang immediately broke out in a cold sweat and called several relevant persons in charge of the suspension system to scold him.

Li Weiguo smiled and said, "Don't scold them anymore. I believe they have worked very hard! As long as I am willing to work hard, I will not blame them. It doesn't matter if I fail. Don't lose your ambition. Keep working hard until I succeed!"

Several relevant persons in charge of the research and development of the suspension system were immediately impressed and thanked Li Weiguo for his unjust guilt and promised to continue working hard to strive to develop a tank suspension system that would comply with Li Weiguo's request as soon as possible.

Hua Hengfang said to Li Weiguodao: "Your Majesty, if this suspension system does not meet the standards, will it affect Your Majesty's strategic plan?"

Li Weiguodao: "There will not be any impact in the short term! I do not intend to let tanks with gyroscopes and suspension systems on the battlefield!"

Hua Hengfang asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, why is this? I have studied it with the relevant person in charge. If the tank has this suspension system and a gyroscope system, it can fire the cannon steadily during high-speed travel. If there is no these two systems, the tank can only stop and fire the cannon. Is there a very obvious gap?"

Li Weiguo nodded and said, "You are right! However, if you put this kind of tank on the battlefield too early, once captured by the enemy, they can pick up ready-made ones and copy them in a short time. That will be very unfavorable to the empire."

Hua Hengfang disagreed with Li Weiguo's idea and asked back: "But Your Majesty, shouldn't such advanced equipment be put into the battlefield to exert their power?"

Li Weiguo guessed Hua Hengfang's idea and said, "I have my own plans! If the war is in a stalemate, I will send a group of tanks you have developed before to the battlefield. Those tanks are on the battlefield to shock the enemy and use them to break through the enemy's defensive positions at critical moments. Even if they are captured by the enemy, they can only develop similar tanks. When they take out their own tanks to attack us, we will use more advanced tanks to restrain them. If this happens several times, it will completely destroy the enemy."

After all, Hua Hengfang was a math person, so she quickly settled the bill.

"Your Majesty is wise. This tank is quite consuming steel resources when it is made. If the enemy captures our tank, it will inevitably produce a large scale. After they produce a huge number of tanks, they will find that they have been restrained by our new tanks as soon as they arrive on the battlefield. If this happens several times, it will definitely hit the morale of the enemy and cause them to suffer heavy losses."

Li Weiguo smiled slightly and didn't need to talk too much to talk to smart people.

Hua Hengfang asked again: "I wonder if Your Majesty plans to mass-produce a batch of tanks now?"

Li Weiguo thought for a while and said, "Yes, produce 200 such T-tanks first! Their mission is to break through the enemy's positions! I estimate that the Venezuelan War has reminded the Allies that once a world war breaks out, if the Allies lose to us, they will inevitably adopt tactics such as trench warfare, ground radium warfare and other tactics. Therefore, our tanks require breaking through trench and radium zones as the main combat goal."

"I remember!" Hua Hengfang took the order and glanced at the assistants behind him. They nodded one after another, saying that they had recorded every word Li Weiguo said without missing a word.

"Your Majesty, since you want to mass produce 200 T, please give it a name!"

t is just a research and development number used to make it public to the whole world, and within the Chinese Empire, it has its own independent naming method.

For example, the latest battleship of the Furious Warship built by the Imperial Chinese Navy claims to be an Furious Super Fearless Battleship, while the internal one is a Furious A-type fleet battleship.

The role of the tank is unquestionable, and its future status will definitely be comparable to that of the navy's battleships, so Hua Hengfang proposed to let Li Weiguo name it.

"Just call Pojun!"

Li Weiguo said casually, but it also contains profound meaning.

Hua Hengfang immediately said to himself: "Pojun! The five elements belong to water, the seventh star of Beidou, transforms into a murderous intent, is a big killing star, which is the main killing star, just like the suicide squad in the army, the vanguard troops, charge into battle, and indeed agree with the fate of the tank. Your Majesty's wiseness, I am obeying you!"

Li Weiguo smiled and said, "Don't flatter me. I still have a little bit of self-knowledge. In terms of astronomy, mathematics and physics, you are the Big Dipper of Mount Tai. I don't want to show off in front of you, it's just a joke!"

Hua Hengfang smiled apologized and said, "Your Majesty is so serious. I sincerely admire Your Majesty!"

Li Weiguo waved his hand, but he didn't want to argue with him on this issue.

At this time, the T tank had run two laps on the shooting range, then entered the shelling position, aiming at the circular target 500 meters away.

With a thunderous cannon, the main cannon opened fire.

However, all the first three shells were off the target, and the fourth shell was calibrated and finally hit the round target.

For the T tank, this is already very good. You should know that even if the tank is a hundred years later, with the help of various fire-controlled shooting aiming systems, it may not be able to hit it.

Of course, this is also because the gunner in the tank is the best gunner in the Shence Army of the Chinese Empire. If other ordinary gunners are replaced, they may not have achieved this result.

But Li Weiguo was already very satisfied. No matter how many shots he hit the target, in this era, only the Chinese Empire had tanks. On the battlefield, even if it hit the target with a hundred shots, it would be enough to scare the enemy to death.

After the shooting, Li Weiguo praised the commander and the gunner, and then visited the inside of the T-tank.

After reading it, Li Weiguo smiled bitterly in his heart. The difference between the tanks in later generations was too big.

After staying in the T tank for a while, I was soaked by the heat and hot all over. If another person from the 21st century was replaced, I would immediately scold him if this is a place where people can stay? It is simply inferior to a doghouse.

Li Weiguo wanted to add an air conditioning system to the tank, but I'd better forget it. The tanks are now bulky enough. If you install another air conditioning system, it's really not far from killing you.

"If the equipment cannot be solved, you can consider not having the main gun and only keeping heavy machine guns."

"If only heavy machine guns are retained, the weight of the tank will be reduced by half and the speed will be greatly improved. But the problem is that our tracks are really impossible to speed up to higher speeds, and the speed of 20 kilometers per hour is already the limit. Even so, we can only run for an hour and a half and have to replace the tracks."

After listening to Hua Hengfang's explanation, Li Weiguodao: "You misunderstood. I didn't ask you to give up the T-tank, but let you find another way and develop another kind of equipment. I call it a chariot."

Chariot?

Hua Hengfang asked, "But the kind of chariot equipped by the Dragon Cavalry regiment?"

Li Weiguo nodded and said, "That is a light chariot, four wheels, and armor protection. I plan to let you develop a chariot with a larger load capacity and a larger weapon caliber."

At this time, the guard officer next to Li Weiguo quickly took out a prepared document and handed it to Hua Hengfang.

This was something that Li Weiguo suddenly thought of before coming.

He remembered that in the history of World War I, when the Allies first used tanks to the battlefield, Germany could not make tanks as a confrontation in a short period of time, so it could only develop large-caliber rifles to shoot through tank armor from British and French troops.
