Compared to the light tanks commonly used in the late World War, the medium tank had a considerable increase in both the thickness of the armor and the caliber of the gun.

In the middle and late stages of the World War, when the Allied tanks appeared on the battlefield, the German army converted the field guns into direct-fire guns to defend against Allied tank assaults as quickly as possible, but because there were no armor-piercing shells at that time, the performance of the direct-fire guns was not satisfactory, and the threat to the tanks was limited.

Now the Germans have plenty of time to study, and although the Paris Peace Conference will have a relatively large limit on the German army after the war, Roque believes that the Germans will try to retain a considerable degree of scientific research capability anyway, and with the German scientific research ability, it is only a matter of time before they develop armor-piercing shells.

Of course, while German researchers are working hard, southern African researchers are not idle.

Compared with German researchers, southern African researchers have more adequate funds, a better environment, and a more complete system, and Roque is confident that the scientific research system in southern Africa is not inferior to that of any European country, especially after the end of the world war, when a large number of European scientists came to southern Africa.

Don't think that only German scientists came to southern Africa, a large number of British and French scientists, and even some American scientists came to southern Africa after the end of the world war.

In this era, enterprises are the backbone of scientific and technological research and development, and Europe and the United States rarely support scientific and technological research and development at the national level, not because the government does not want to, but because they do not have the strength to promote.

The federal government of southern Africa also does not have the strength to promote scientific and technological research and development, but the enterprises of southern Africa have money, and a large number of enterprises with Nyasaland Heavy Industries and Nyasaland Military Industry as the core have achieved leapfrog development during the world war, and after the end of the world war, the Nyasaland military industry has issued 1,200 invitations to scientists in Europe and the United States at one time in order to solicit new rifle design proposals.

These scientists were invited to Nyasaland to participate in the design of a new rifle for the Nyasaland military-industrial complex, all at the expense of the Nyasaland military-industrial complex.

This is something that even the current British government can't do.

The British government was pleased with Lee Enfield's performance during the World War and there was no need for improvements to Lee Enfield.

Roque has higher requirements for rifles, not to mention getting the AK and M series out now, at least getting a Garand to equip the troops.

It's not right, Garand's official number seems to be M1, don't look at this rifle in another time and space until 1936 to equip US troops on a large scale, and the actual development has been started since 1921.

In a few days it was 1918, and now it was just in time to start.

In the past few days around the New Year, the L.A.S.-based Brad office has been extremely busy, and since the beginning of December, agents from various countries lurking in Nyasaland have been extremely active, and Brad's office has cracked four espionage operations against Nyasaland Heavy Industries and Nyasaland Heavy Industries in a month, three of which were against Nyasaland Heavy Industries and one against Nyasaland Military Industry.

"Grey Fox doesn't say anything, and he doesn't acknowledge his relationship with the War Office, Chris is still waiting for our reply, do you want to hand Grey Fox over to him?" O'Connor, a senior agent in the Los Angeles Brad office, is a Slav with the physique of a bear, the acumen of an eagle, and the ferocity of a wolf, and is the right-hand man of Fox, the director of the Los Angeles Brad office.

"Look at what you guys did, if you had been more cautious when you caught the gray fox at that time, there would have been no such bullshit and shit, and now Chris is blocking the door and asking for someone, what do you want me to do?" Fox was furious, Chris was the head of the British War Office in Nyasaland, and the base of the War Office was still on the island of Licoma.

A week ago, Grey Fox was secretly arrested by agents from Brad's office in his apartment, and some accidents occurred during the arrest, and finally the news leaked that Chris blocked the door of Brad's office.

Fox had intelligence that suggested that Grey Fox was most likely an agent working for the British War Office, and that Grey Fox's public identity was the office manager of the British Royal Small Arms Corporation in Nyasaland.

During the world war, the world was shocked by the technical capabilities and industrial strength of Nyasaland, and before the end of the world war, countless agents flocked to the country with a large number of immigrants.

"You can't blame me for this, it's you who asked us to be lighter." O'Connor defended that the relationship between Britain and southern Africa was complicated, Nyasaland was part of the United Kingdom, and the gray fox was British, and the agents really had to be careful when arresting people, and they could not kill people at every turn.

"A little lighter is to make things measured, don't kill people at every turn-" Fawkes slapped the table and roared, O'Connor was a good man, loyal, brave and fearless, but he didn't have any weight under him.

O'Connor still wanted to defend himself, but was pointed at his nose by Fox and scolded: "Get out, go home and reflect for a week!" ”

"Okay then—" O'Connor was not angry, and whistled happily when he opened the door, for O'Connor, introspection is equivalent to a holiday, or the paid kind.

"This bastard!" Fox gritted his teeth, really loving and hating O'Connor.

Leaving Fox's office and passing by the break room, O'Connor greeted Chris, who was waiting in the break room, "Mr. Chris, our Director invites you to come over-"

Bullard's office is nominally subordinate to the Nyasaland government, but in fact the Nyasalsan government has no jurisdiction over the Nyasarsa government, and the position in the Brad's office is a bit chaotic, internally, Fox is the director of the Brad office, and externally, Fox is the director of the public affairs department of the Nyasaland government.

Chris is the same young man who came to Nyasaland with Frank, it was 15 years ago, and now the young man has become greasy middle-aged, and Frank is now the head of military intelligence.

After the outbreak of the World War, the War Office subdivided its intelligence divisions into 19 military intelligence services, which were directly responsible to the War Department.

The intelligence agency in Nyasaland is part of MI5 and is responsible for intelligence within the UK.

Interestingly, after the start of the world war, the Ministry of Defense of Southern Africa also subdivided the intelligence service originally under the fourth division into nine intelligence services, which were responsible for communication technology, mapping, intelligence, security, information, propaganda and other different directions, and MI5 was also responsible for intelligence work in the Commonwealth.

So if someone in L.A. claims to be an MI5 worker, then it must be clear that it could be MI5 from the British War Department or MI5 from the Southern African Ministry of Defence.

"Thank you, O'Connor, and have a great weekend." Chris didn't want to say Happy New Year to O'Connor, even though everyone was working for the British Empire, and it was inevitable that there would be accidental injuries.

Coming to Fawkes's office, Chris was familiar with the road: "Fawkes, when are you going to release Mr. William?" ”

William is the gray fox, and the Royal Light Weapons Company is a wholly-owned agency under the British War Office, so William, Chris, and Fox are all in the service of the British Empire in principle.

"Mr. William's actions are suspected of harming the interests of the Nyasaland military-industrial complex, and we suspect that he is in the service of German intelligence, so the investigation of Mr. William will continue for some time." Fawkes was sure that he would not let go, and the engineer who contacted William was very vigilant and did not give William any technical information, but Fawkes did not know if William had been in contact with other engineers of the Nyasaland Military Industrial Group before, and all this would not be known until William's mouth was pried open.

"Fox, you know, William couldn't have served the German intelligence agencies-" Chris looked devastated, if Fox found another reason, then Chris still had something to say, this excuse was really unassailable.

Chris can't just say that William was in the service of MI5.

Even if Chris said that, Fox was prepared, and it was normal for double-sided agents to be in these days, with the mobility of the population in Europe, there were three or four sides, and this kind of person was called an intelligence broker, and whoever gave them money, they worked for whomever they wanted.

"How do you know that Wilhelm could not have served German intelligence?" The old god of Fox is here, and this is a dead knot that cannot be untied.

Chris can't prove it, but Chris has a killer weapon in his hands, also a week ago, MI5 of the War Department arrested a southern African named Wolfe, a top graduate of the University of Nyasaland who worked at the Royal Navy Dockyard in Portsmouth, and a week ago, Wolf was arrested on suspicion of leaking Britain's most advanced Parsons steam turbine-related technology.

"Fawkes, what the hell are you going to do to release William-" Chris didn't want to go around in circles with Fawkes anymore, there were some things that everyone actually knew, so they just waited for the other party to bring it up first.

"Do you know what William did? He bribed an engineer from the Nyasaland military-industrial complex and took away information about medium tanks, and you know what that means, without me going into too much detail. "Fox is real or fake, the part of buying is real, and the part of taking the information is fake, but Chris doesn't know that.

When Fawkes said "medium tank", Chris's breath became rapid, and although Chris thought he was covering it up well, his mood changed and he couldn't escape Fawkes's eyes.

Fox is a part-time graduate student in psychology at the University of Nyasaland.

Compared with the intelligence services in southern Africa, the British intelligence services are indeed a bit naïve, after all, the British military intelligence service has only been broken up for a few years, and Bullard has been established for nearly 20 years.

The gap of so many years cannot be bridged in a short period of time.

ps: I've been communicating with the editor in the past few days, and while considering the new book, I'm also trying to make the water more exciting, trying to write the historical essay as an urban text, and see if the brothers like to read it-
