If the acquisition of DuPont shares is said to be crazy, Liu Tuanzuo has gone crazy.

In fact, this is not enough to describe the evaluation of Liu Tuanzuo by the overseas branches of China Commercial Group.

Liu Tuanzuo, who was already close to madness, even spent nearly 50 million US dollars to set his sights on the famous Springfield Arsenal, which was founded in 1794 and was once the main state-owned light weapons production and research center of the US government. It was also there that the world-famous M1903 Springfield rifle, M1 Garand rifle, and M1911 series pistol products were designed.

The most prestigious center for the design of small arms on the American continent.

It is a pity that the United States, the absolute leader in the research and development of light weapons, is now also in crisis, and the reduction of orders from the US military is only one of them, and the major customers of European countries, after the bloody World War I, have not only begun to study their own light weapons, but also slowed down a large number of arms purchases.

Liu Tuanzuo, on the other hand, frantically acquired shares in a number of commercial banks and other companies, and once again waved a cheque and brazenly extended his "clutches" of unknown heights to the US state-run light weapons production and research center.

When the American cousin heard this information, he almost didn't look up to the sky and laugh three times. Hillbillies from China are bound to run into a lot of money this time, and the government will let a company from China take a stake in the Springfield Arsenal? That's absolutely impossible. Who doesn't know that weapons manufacturing is the core project of a country's national defense, and that is not something that can be replaced by profits.

In fact, not only the American cousin, but even the Ross family felt that Liu Lang was humiliating himself, and the US government would never agree to such an absurd request. Even if they now almost have to subsidize nearly 10 million US dollars to the Springfield Arsenal every year, they have not seen them raise capital from the private sector.

In fact, it is true that when the U.S. Army Ordnance Department, the superior of the Springfield Arsenal, heard that a company from China wanted to take a stake in the struggling arsenal, it almost did not kick out the door of several CEOs who were cautious about going out together with the overseas companies of the Chinese business group.

Obviously, the idea of the Chinese, who are backward in arms manufacturing, wants to fight light weapons, and they must not be allowed to succeed.

In fact, the U.S. Army Ordnance Department also has a careful eye for retaliation. As a country with continuous civil wars and a huge demand for light weapons, China should have become a big customer of the Springfield Arsenal, but the hateful Chinese are fond of light weapons made in the Third Reich, whether it is their imitation of Hanyang-made or Czech-made light machine guns or Makqin heavy machine guns, and then to the various mountain guns they imported, almost all of them are weapons of Third Reich blood.

On the other hand, although the Springfield rifle and M1911 pistol in the United States are also sold, compared with the standard weapons of the Third Reich that were widely used in China, that little sales, in the words of the generals of the Third Reich, a little leakage from the corners of their mouths is enough for them to sell for several years.

Now, the Chinese who have "figured it out" are stretching out their "clutches" again, and the brother is not selling!

Yes, American cowboys are sometimes so tsundere. Of course, American cowboys occasionally make mistakes, and Liu Tuanzuo also understands, they have done this many times in history, and then they will sober up after being beaten.

But that doesn't mean Liu Tuanzuo will give up.

A paper rifle and light machine gun, as well as heavy machine gun barrels, mortars, mountain artillery barrels, a total of 300,000 orders, were thrown on the desk of the president of the Chuntian Arsenal by the overseas branch of the Chinese Commercial Group.

There was almost no hesitation, the American cowboy may have made a mistake, but he was never arrogant in business, and immediately succumbed to Liu Tuanzuo's money offensive. Who can't get along with money? If you offend anyone, you can't offend the God of Wealth! Even if those barrels are mostly familiar 7.97 mm caliber and some Japanese 6.5 calibers, there are many extended barrel caliber specifications that have not been heard of, but this order has to be made.

Because, the Chinese who have money and a little bad head offer almost double the price sold to Europe and Southeast Asia, and those who do not sign are stupid.

Although the Chinese made a very strange request, they wanted to hire Captain Leslie Skinnay of the Aberdeen Test Ground under the U.S. Army Ordnance Department to work in a Chinese factory for two years as a small arms equipment test consultant, and were willing to pay the Ordnance Department a friendly donation of 200,000 US knives for this purpose.

With such favorable conditions, what else do the bigwigs of the Ordnance Department have to say? Although the tycoon and stupid Chinese sent the order, they resisted the temptation of millions of dollars in knives and refused the purchase of shares in the arsenal by the backward Chinese. I heard that in the face of the cheques waved by the local tycoons and Chinese, very few companies choose to refuse, which is absolutely to safeguard the dignity of the US government and the American people.

I have to say that not only Chinese people have the spirit of Ah Q, this spirit is actually cosmopolitan.

With the consent of the Ministry of Ordnance, the salary offered by the Chinese is five times that of the United States, and the time is only two years, how can Captain Skinnay disagree?

I am afraid that the Americans who feel victorious, including the people of the Chinese business group, do not know that whether it is the shares or the success of asking the Springfield Arsenal to help process the barrels and barrels, that is not Liu Lang's goal.

From beginning to end, Liu Lang's goal was only for one person, Captain Skinnay. The guy who would later be known as the father of Bazooka.

Yes, the purpose of Liu Lang's coming to the United States, in addition to making money and making money, is to make money and make money, that is, the sharpest anti-tank weapon in World War II, the "Bazooka" bazooka.

As the originator of the iso-caliber bazooka, its fame dwarfs that of other anti-tank weapons of the same period. It has even been asserted that the invention of "Bazooka" was the greatest contribution of the United States to the development of anti-tank weapons during World War II. It regained the confidence of the U.S. infantry in the face of German tank attacks and shook the famous assertion that tanks were the most effective anti-tank weapon.

In fact, the individual rocket launcher is not a high-tech, the United States actually began to start a project on the study of individual rocket launchers in the summer of 1918, and its host is Dr. ——. Goddard, one of the founders of American rocket technology. Dr. Goddard devised a number of schemes, and finally decided that the most suitable caliber for infantry bazookas was 51 mm.

The rocket launcher launch tube is designed with a total length of 1.68m and a mass of 3.4kg, and the shooter must put the front of the tube on his shoulder to adjust the direction of the shot at any time, and the rear of the launch tube is supported by a light bipod. The matching rocket is 510mm long and has a mass of 3.63kg, of which the warhead has a mass of 1.81kg. In early November of that year, the rocket launcher underwent several tests at the Aberdeen Proving Ground, with a maximum range of 685.8 meters, but such a seemingly promising weapon was thrown into the cold at the end of World War I, and Dr. Goddard's research work was abandoned halfway. If the development had continued, and the European armies had been able to use such weapons at the outbreak of World War II in 1939, the "blitzkrieg" launched by Germany would probably have been a different outcome, and the history of the world would have been rewritten.

The U.S. government's research stopped, but Captain Skinnah, known as the father of the "Bazooka", did not stop, and it was this young man who was extremely interested in the bazooka, and after six years of research and obtaining a patent for a Swiss engineer's "hollow warhead", he finally tested the Bazooka in 1942, which was fully combat-effective.

Liu Lang, the patented technology of the hollow warhead of the Swiss engineer, had already entrusted Sir William to buy it, and what was missing now was the father of "Bazooka" for various experimental data such as the stable flight of rockets over the years, which was not only useful for Liu Lang's coveted individual bazooka, but also could reduce the research and development time of the Storm rocket launcher that had been put into research and development.

This person may be just an ordinary weapons experimenter for the United States, but for Liu Lang and the independent regiment, it is too important.

Of course, whether it is rocket artillery or bazooka, for the father of "Bazooka" in the past time and space, it is strictly secret. Regarding this point, Liu Lang had solemnly explained before leaving, including Dr. Grunov, who was still studying five or six half rifles at the base, that the core weapons of the independent regiment must be kept secret.

If the Third Reich had been given rocket artillery technology, the red polar bear would most likely have become a barbecue polar bear, which would also not be in China's interests at the moment.

Liu Lang has decided that in this time and space, this patent of the Americans belongs to China.
