Chapter 780 They can already make it themselves

"That's the German ace tank?" Button, standing next to Marshall, poked out the giant viewing platform with Chinese-style veils, staring at a group of tiger kings rumbled below.

"To be precise, it's a copycat company, and it's also a Chinese!" Stilwell said angrily.

Although he was talking about the well-known fact that the counterfeit companies had close relationships with the Chinese, his words also revealed a hint of dissatisfaction with Washington's repeated delays in Asian military operations.

The US military has not been sent, and the British and Indian troops have not been obeyed very much. However, the Chongqing Expeditionary Force has recently merged with the Pioneer Army, which has led to his Burmese Indian War Zone commander being nominally in name only.

"Jingy Qiao, we are seeking help from the Chinese!" Marshall said to his old subordinates with a calm expression.

When Marshall was acting as the deputy regiment commander of the 15th Infantry Regiment stationed in Tianjin in 2929, Stilwell was the chief of staff promoted to the battalion commander. Then, Stilwell was also considered a Marshall division.

"The Chinese army is very strong!" Stilwell knew that Marshall's trip was with the mission of winning over the Chinese, and also knew that Washington had many helplessness and was not good at saying anything, so he just turned to the parade.

"They are very strong!" Marshall sighed inwardly.

The information about the Chinese Pioneer Army was too digital. Today, when he saw the infantry formations of the vanguard army walking by with murderous aura that had not yet dissipated on the battlefield, he was already surprised in his heart. When tanks passed by, especially the rumbling sound of the Tiger King Array rolled over, his heart once again raised the danger of China to a higher level, and he couldn't help but think about the China policy that Washington was discussing.

"Don't we have such tanks?" Patton looked at the more than 80 tiger king tanks that had passed by, clenched his fists, and couldn't help asking Marshall.

He was also appreciated by Marshall and was about to carry out an expedition mission. However, before leaving, he was incorporated into the delegation of the United States to China.

Secretary of State Hull, who led the team, focused on diplomatic and economic cooperation, while Deputy Head of the regiment Marshall led a group of American generals to discuss military cooperation issues with the Chinese.

This military parade will undoubtedly show more of the Chinese military strength. The Pioneer Army did not care at all and moved many tanks served in the military to the parade ground without any scruples.

The multi-functional tanks, light tanks, various armored vehicles, and self-propelled artillery in Patton's eyes are not uncommon in the eyes of Patton. Although they don't know how good their performance, the Americans are not much different. Even if they have the M4 Sherman medium tanks, they have barely fought against them, but they have seen the Tiger King's power on the European battlefield, but they have no way to do anything.

At this time, seeing more than 80 Chinese people suddenly appear in the military parade, Patton was even more upset.

"We'll have it soon," Marshall said vaguely.

When the German tiger and leopard tanks were galloping on the European continent early, the Americans found that their Sherman was no enemy at all, and their research on heavy tanks was started early.

However, the tank technology mastered by the Americans is slightly worse than that of the Germans, not to mention the tiger and leopard that came on the field early. This heavy tank has been in the test stage, and there are still a lot of controversy.

But Marshall believes that as long as this heavy tank comes out of the experimental field, American factories will continue to produce them like beans.

"Sir, I think their light chariots are also very threatening!" Li Qiwei, who was standing not far from Marshall, mustered up the courage to point to the multi-functional chariot in the past and interjected.

This little staff officer in the Operational Planning Department of the General Staff has not yet shown the strength of the famous general in later generations. This time, he just followed Marshall to deal with some trivial matters.

Bradley beside him glanced over with a stern look. This kind of place was not suitable for his casual words.

"Oh?" But Marshall looked at him with interest.

"Many armored vehicles in the past seem to be derived from the light armored vehicles!" Li Qi hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said directly the conclusion after careful observation.

"They are constantly being developed more thoroughly than the German tank No. 3, so that logistics maintenance and maintenance will save more costs and energy. In this way, they not only have the advantage of the Tiger King tank, but also have the advantage of the quantity of light armored vehicles. If the number of light armored vehicles is larger, it will be enough to qualitatively improve the combat effectiveness of the huge number of Chinese troops!"

Li Qiwei explained his inference in one breath.

This future star with agile thinking has observed the standard modular characteristics of the Pioneer Army equipment.

The multi-functional infantry vehicle has been upgraded to level 3. The most basic personnel carrier model has not changed much, but its derivative products are becoming more and more abundant.

Investigation, medical care, logistics, maintenance, air defense and other functions have been gradually developed, becoming the most systematic combat vehicle system in the vanguard army.

After Meng Xiang came out of the third-level multi-functional infantry vehicle, he had already determined the system structure of this vehicle as a model.

Although due to technical barriers, some electronic and other functions are missing, in terms of chassis, power and other machinery, with the actual combat test of bases in multiple space-time and space-time battlefields, the third-level multi-functional infantry vehicles with incomplete functional bodies have partially achieved the highest level in the 1950s and 1960s after World War II.

In other words, relying on some of the technology of this three-level multi-function infantry vehicle, it is not too outdated to use it for another twenty or thirty years.

The base provides insufficient number of multi-functional infantry vehicles, and there are also uncertain hidden dangers in the future, but it does not prevent Meng Xiang from learning from it and imitating China's own multi-functional combat vehicles.

With the help of the base, weapons research has not been cut off, but production has not been launched on a large scale. At least 7mm automatic rifles imitating the AK47, but large-scale weapons and equipment such as tanks and even artillery have not been launched on a large scale.

Although China's basic industrial system has been initially established, it is still very difficult to manufacture heavy tanks such as the Tiger King. Even if the imitation is done, there are not many advantages in terms of cost and other aspects.

With the help of the base's weapons supply, the current Chinese industrial system is mainly tilted towards people's livelihood to ensure the huge demand for people's livelihood. This has enabled the domestic market to remain stable while the vanguard army continues to attack and fight everywhere. People's livelihood has not been greatly affected by the recruitment of strategic materials. Even China's continuous rising steel output is used for industrial and civil construction.

Because of this, domestic people can see the continuous improvement of their living standards with their naked eyes, otherwise no matter how much wealth they have, they will be invested in the bottomless pit of war.

This is a very important reason why the Pioneer Army has received support from the domestic people.

But this is not a long-term solution after all. The foundation of national defense still needs to rely on itself, especially facing unknown hidden dangers at the base that is approaching in 1949.

After solving the production problem of the 7mm bullet production line, Meng Xiang started several weapons production plans in one breath. Multi-functional infantry vehicles are the key projects.

Although there is a little lack of materials, many aspects such as vehicle architecture are useful for reference.

So a series of standardized and modular chariot systems were first completed in this regard, and the first batch of manufacturing pilot projects have been started in Jinan, Baotou, Baoji, Hefei, Hengyang, Kunming and other places.

The vehicles in this military parade were their first products.

As the first batch of achievements that truly belonged to China, Meng Xiang shared this joy with all the Chinese people, obviously noticing that someone had noticed one of the core pillars of his future mechanized troops.

"Do you think they can play a numerical advantage according to the modern industrial level of China?" Bradley pointed to the rows of tanks and self-propelled artillery passing below and sneered, "These are all bought! Although the counterfeit company is close to them, it is like a castle made of sand by the sea, and it will easily collapse!"

"They can already make that type of Hummer chariot by themselves." Stilwell interrupted. He knew that the introduction of this chariot in Pioneer Radio was, after all, the domesticization of this multi-functional chariot named Hummer was also an inspiring thing.

"Omar, I think if you stay in China for a long time, you will see that industrial miracles are born in this country every day, just like Detroit at the end of the last century." Stilwell said to Bradrey again with a serious expression on his face.

Stilwell's understanding of China made him even more surprised by the changes in this country.

Marshall's eyes froze. Since Stilwell, who is Huaxiatong, commented so much, this means that the rise of China's industry is not completely described by the simple numbers on his desk.

He then turned around and nodded at Li Qiwei and said, "Not bad! Go back and write a detailed report and hand it over to my office."

"Yes, sir!" Li Qiwei was a little excited, which meant that Marshall, known as the mentor, recognized him.

Marshall glanced at the tour group of other countries around him and continued to look at the rocket launcher array passing below.

"Even if they do not have the production capacity, their current strength is enough to pose a huge threat to the United States." The huge cheers obscured Marshall's whisper, "Besides, they still have many trump cards that have not been revealed."
