Chapter 646: Future Weapons Planning
"Don't worry, Chief Liu, we have had clinical trials on at least five patients in Shanghai, with a survival rate of 80 percent, and only one patient died because he was terminally ill. We have improved the purification method of this batch of drugs, and the drug will be stronger and will be successful. A tall and thin young man who looked like he was supposed to be the leader of the group of students looked at Liu Lang, who was pacing back and forth with some anxiety, comforted.
"No, classmate, I never doubted that sulfonamides would succeed." Liu Lang stopped and shook his head slowly. "Maybe you don't believe it, since the first telegram you sent me, I have already used sulfonamide to find the American Ross Group to start financing and start deploying overseas markets."
"That'。。。。。。" Several students who participated in the development looked at Liu Lang suspiciously.
"I just don't want the 20 Guangyuan fellows who participated in the clinical trial to have poor treatment results, giving people hope and then despairing, which is extremely cruel for families and patients. In particular, it was our independent regiment that gave them hope. Liu Lang continued.
This argument made the students speechless, more than 20,000 Japanese criminals were killed in the first battle, and according to the grapevine, but the iron-blooded head who chopped off all the heads of the Japanese criminals who killed Mijiayuquan Village as a sacrifice had such a compassionate heart.
"Of course, if it was all Japanese, I would have been chatting with you with a cigarette in my mouth and farting by now." Liu Lang gritted his teeth and smiled.
A few students shuddered from laughing, but they knew a little more about this legendary iron-blooded leader, whose iron-blooded will always be only an aggressive alien race.
While he was talking, two military doctors from the Independent Regiment excitedly ran out of the quarantine area, and several students hurriedly surrounded them.
"Haha, it's working, it's working, except for the three seriously ill patients, the rest of the patients have begun to reduce fever and their body temperature tends to normal." The military doctor loudly announced the results of the treatment.
"Did the three seriously ill patients have any symptoms of remission?" The students didn't have the cheers that the military doctor imagined, but the tall and thin one asked about it first.
The military doctor was slightly stunned, but the smile on his face did not decrease, "Although the symptoms are not as obvious as the rest of the people, they are conscious and have no signs of aggravation, if they continue to take medicine for the past two days, the possibility of their condition will be reduced." ”
"It worked." It was only then that the students cheered.
Liu Lang also smiled and lit a cigarette, sulfonamide, can really enter the mass production stage, and he also has the confidence to carry sulfonamide to the other side of the distant ocean in exchange for what China needs.
After encouraging the biochemistry team a few words, Liu Lang went straight to another office a hundred meters away.
There, Professor Ye Qisun and Xiong Zhen were still waiting for him, and the development plan for the development of the light and heavy weapons series of the Independent Regiment was still waiting for him to make a decision.
As soon as he entered the small conference room that still smelled of engine oil, Liu Lang saw that Xiong was really fighting with Peng and Qian, but Comrade Lao Ye seemed to have nothing to do with him, sitting on the side and drinking tea leisurely.
"Yo, it's so lively!" Liu Lang sat down opposite Comrade Lao Ye with a golden knife and said with a smile.
"Is there any problem over there?" Comrade Lao Ye asked with a smile on his face while holding a teacup.
"No problem." Liu Lang nodded.
"Commander Liu, we are arguing about the development idea of the independent regiment's light and heavy weapons series that you gave last time, and I personally think that we should focus on heavy firepower, focus on studying the artillery you proposed last time, and even gather more and stronger forces to develop heavier artillery, and at the same time increase the mobility of artillery. And Qian Qiang they feel that it is enough to have such an artillery, if you want to equip heavy artillery to purchase the already developed abroad, they feel that priority should be given to the development of light weapons, rifles, machine guns, short-range mortars, infantry suppression weapons, you are not only a military commander or an ordnance expert, you come to comment, whose thinking is more correct? Seeing Liu Lang coming, the future elites also stopped arguing, and Xiong Zhen asked Liu Lang directly.
"Haha, isn't that exactly what we're talking about today?" Liu Lang said with a smile.
He handed over a cigarette to this future elite who was still high-spirited a few months ago, but now he has messy hair and a full stubble.
Xiong Zhen didn't say a word, he took it and lit it with a match, and took a puff, and after staying up for several nights in a row, he knew why the soldiers loved tobacco so much, and he definitely stayed up late to accompany the boutique.
The young man who spews smoke is a little less immature as a student and a little more mature as a man.
"Come, come, sit down." Liu Lang beckoned the future scientific and technological elites who were students but have gradually transformed into engineers to sit down. Liu Lang treats them much more kindly than his subordinates, and they have respectable qualifications both now and in the future.
"The questions you just talked about, from the perspective of our soldiers, although don't look at them in both directions, they are actually correct. The development of light weapons will enhance the front-line firepower at the battalion, company, and platoon levels, which is what any unit can only dream of. The development of heavy firepower can determine the victory or defeat of a war at the divisional, corps, and even corps levels, and the last war that swept half the world has shown that artillery is the god of war and the key to victory. Liu Lang waited for the future scientific and technological elites to sit down and said with a smile.
"Then Commander Liu means that our direction will develop towards heavy firepower? But...... Some introverted Peng Wuchang blushed and wanted to argue.
"However, our scientific research base is not a national scientific research base, hehe, you are now the first batch of engineers hired by my independent regiment and Huaqing University's school-enterprise cooperation, naturally, the angle you stand on must start from my independent regiment first." Liu Lang waved his hand and said to himself.
"Taking a step back, even if we consider it from the perspective of the country and the nation, Xiong Zhen, let me ask you, what should we do when the heavy artillery we have developed or purchased from abroad is attacked by the enemy from the air?" Liu Lang opened his mouth and asked Xiong Zhendao, whose face was already a little unsightly.
"Naturally, it's plane-to-plane." Xiong Zhen thought about it and replied with some uncertainty.
"You see, you've lost your faith! In terms of air power, China has only more than 200 planes in total, and the powerful neighbor of the island country, which has always been eyeing us, has nearly 10,000 planes of various types so far, and they only need one-tenth of them to be put into the battlefield of our country, and our air force will definitely be defeated. This is the defeat of the right and wrong war, and it is the result of the competition of national strength between the two sides. Liu Lang sighed slightly.
In order not to dampen the confidence of these enthusiastic young people, he actually has a number comparison that he has not said. In the past time and space, at the most critical moment in North China in 1937, the whole of China was equipped with 296 fighters, reconnaissance planes, bombers, etc., and after the outbreak of the war, more than 1,200 planes were purchased from the red polar bear, which sounds like a lot, but what about Japan? During the entire war, as many as 39,800 fighters were put into service, and even if they only put a small part of them into the Chinese battlefield, it would be unmatched by China.
In particular, in the Songhu War, which began on August 13 in the future, 290 planes against 3,000, under the huge disadvantage of numbers, the Chinese Air Force was bloodied but unable to return to the sky, and by October, the entire Air Force was almost completely lost. The officers and men of the national army, who had suffered from the bombing, could only look up to the sky and sigh: Where did our plane go?
Planes, all shot down.
China's weak air force bought dignity with sacrifice, but it failed to win it.
