Chapter 3 Russian Spies
Northeast.
All the arsenals of the Volunteers have been relocated to Changbai Mountain, and the small and medium-sized ones have been reduced to pieces, and only the one he established in cooperation with the Germans is still producing various weapons on a large scale.
Hoffman picked up the bullet in front of him, loaded it in his rifle, aimed at a dummy more than ten meters away, and pulled the trigger. The bullet struck the dummy's body in an instant, and the dummy shook violently. Hoffman put down his rifle and ran over, only to see that the position where the dummy was shot in the chest was completely exploded!
"Oh my God!"
Commander Yang was holding a cigarette next to him, with a smile on his face: "How is Mr. Hoffman?" Now ordinary bullets are one-time damage, and after being shot into the human body, they penetrate the body, and if you are lucky, you will be fine with a shot. But my bullet is different! When the bullet is injected into the human body and encounters a change in density, the warhead will roll over or even shatter, causing secondary damage to the person who has been shot. ”
Commander Yang's bullet was commonly used by Western countries during World War II, and now the bullets used by various countries cannot be compared with it at all! How to put it, a simple example can be seen from the soldiers who come down from the battlefield.
During the First World War, the wounded soldiers on both sides came down, some were shot seven or eight times, and some were even shot a dozen times and still alive. But World War II was different, not to mention seven or eight shots, you can't move much after one shot.
Hoffman is an arms expert and a real soldier! He, naturally, knows what the use of such bullets means for war! His face was full of excitement: "Great! Yang, I'll report to Berlin right away, and now we'll sign a non-disclosure agreement about this bullet, let's say, what conditions do you want? ”
Yang Xiaolin smiled: "You haven't replied to me about the steel helmet I told you last time." ”
Hoffman's face was apologetic: "Oh, that was a misunderstanding, I ask your forgiveness." But you have to understand us, to be honest, your reputation is not very good. Berlin is always cautious about the agreements you have signed. But now it's different, you have rejected the British, which is very surprising to us, and it also shows us your credit. The steel helmet is already being manufactured and will arrive from Germany in three months. ”
The Northeast now has its own iron mines, and Commander Yang has long wanted to equip the soldiers with steel helmets that can protect their heads on the battlefield. But the Northeast's own production capacity is not enough to complete the task of equipping the entire Volunteer Army with steel helmets. So he hit the Germans' idea.
The Germans have to pay a price for signing a confidentiality agreement for every product, and the Germans obviously didn't believe that they could abide by the contract after paying the price, so it seemed a little unhappy. Now that they believe it, they are happy.
At this time, Germany was already making steel helmets, but they did not have large-scale equipment troops. Their helmets are also very different from the ones we later see on the battlefield.
Germany was equipped with only a small number of short musketeers with steel helmets, and before World War I, armies of various countries paid attention to the design of military uniforms to show the wealth and strength of their country. For example, at the beginning of the first Shijie War, the French army actually wore red pants when they went to the battlefield! Some officers wore the very high French jazz caps to distinguish themselves from the soldiers.
The same is true of the German steel helmets, which are not only equipped with a pointed head as an ornament, but also painted shiny and shiny.
It's not that they're stupid, it's just that they think their artillery is powerful enough to directly destroy the military liliang on the opposite side. When the infantry charged, it was just to end the battle.
The Volunteers have never had the kind of artillery fire that can directly destroy the opponent's military Liliang, so their combat mode is completely different from that of foreign armies, and Commander Yang is quite optimistic about the combat ability of small groups of soldiers, and he asks that the charging team be spread out as much as possible. And crawl forward.
After the German helmet was brought in, it had to be processed, and the first thing to remove was the pointed part of the helmet that could only be used as an ornament, and then it had to be polished to wear off the luster of the helmet. The next step is to perform the processing of the damping capacity.
These are all done well, in order to conform to the combat mode of the volunteers. The process is very complicated, but it is much easier than making it yourself. It also saves resources.
"Well, I don't think I can ask too much about the bullets, after all, this is the joint efforts of our jishu personnel on both sides to produce it. In this way, I want to produce cars, and I need the guidance of Jishu personnel and the support of machines. ”
Hoffmann was stunned for a moment, this request is really not too much, if such a bullet can equip the German army, then the German army will kill the opponent on the battlefield several times more than the enemy. Hoffman was confident in the production of the bullet, and as long as Yang Dagui obeyed the treaty and did not tell the British and French about the jishu, they would never have figured it out.
Yang Xiaolin proposed that the condition of letting the German church volunteers make cars was completely acceptable. However, he still hesitated for a moment, and said very kindly: "Commander Yang, I have a suggestion for you, now your situation is very bad, the car is an expensive consumer product, and it may not be suitable for you." Do you change a request, a machine gun? Cannon? Or let me reveal, you can ask our German side to transfer the submarine Jishu. ”
Before World War I, neither the Germans nor the Americans regarded automobiles as strategic goods, and their automobiles were only used to transport troops and equipment.
Of course, Yang Xiaolin will not tell Hoffman that he is not going to build a car. Seriously, he was an infantry member when he was a PLA, and he never got on a tank at all, but only saw it from afar. There is no tank model for him to play with the model, and it is impossible for him to make a tiger and leopard style, but add a thick layer of steel to the car, and then install the tracks, put a light artillery gun, and set up a machine gun, and pull it out in this era will definitely be able to be majestic.
"I'm going to ask for a car jishu, you guys think about it."
Hoffman exhaled: "Well, since you insist, I can promise you. ”
Yang Xiaolin smiled: "Mr. Hoffman is really happy, so it's decided." I wish Mr. Hoffman was moving a little faster. And I want to make it clear, you know that some people will kill me if they don't like me, and when the war starts, our non-disclosure agreements will be null and void, and I will use all my weapons on the battlefield, including sniper rifles, flamethrowers, and bullets that haven't been shown yet! ”
Hoffman said he understood: "Of course, that's your right. We also want to see what we have worked with. What kind of performance will the produced weapons have on the battlefield? ”
Hoffmann then seemed to hesitate, and his eyes flickered: "Commander, I regard you as a friend, so I would like to say to you again, Germany welcomes you and these arms experts of yours!" Mr. Mummer has instructed me that I will remain here to continue our work even if war breaks out, and that I can arrange for you to leave at any time. ”
The Germans were so kind not because of their kindness, but because they saw Young's ability to fight ghosts. So Yang Xiaolin decided to fight, and they armed the teeth of the volunteers. If Yang Xiaolin wants to leave. They also welcomed him to Germany. It doesn't matter if it's a beast or not, it's important that the person is useful to them!
Yang Xiaolin understands this truth too well, there is an axiom on this shijie, but it is not something that you will give it to you if you wag your tail and beg for mercy! The axiom is in your fist, and the fist is hard enough to talk to others about it.
He patted Hoffman on the shoulder and didn't say anything, he would never leave here, and was thinking about discussing the development of the submachine gun with the Germans again, when Nyerere hurriedly walked in. Lying on Yang Xiaolin's ear, he whispered a word.
Yang Xiaolin's expression changed slightly, and then he turned his head and said, "Mr. Hoffman, we will talk about this today, and I hope that our next cooperation will be more pleasant." ”
Hoffman held out his hand: "Hmm. I hope so, too. ”
Yang Xiaolin shook hands with him with a smile: "I still say the same thing about the submarine cooperation station, you are ready, and we will talk about it when I repel the enemy!" Trust me, I can. ”
Step out of the doors of the Ordnance Research Institute. Yang Xiaolin's eyes immediately changed, he let the guards behind him leave a little, and then walked side by side with Nyerere: "Can you be sure it's a Russian spy?" ”
Nyerere nodded: "Can't be wrong." His name is Soldorf. Although he was a Russian businessman, some people recognized him. This person has a very high status in Russia, and can even have direct contact with their tsar, he came to Liaoping, and he also used the identity of a merchant and other names, it is definitely not that simple. Moreover, he has been wandering around the 11th Division for the last few days, accosting the soldiers. ”
Yang Xiaolin's brows furrowed, there are many spies in the Northeast now, and to some extent, Robert and Hoffman are both spies. For these people, depending on their purpose, if they are just spying on some performance information, they can ignore it.
But if they're going to do something excessive, it's not going to work.
The 11th Division was a newly formed unit, and their main task was to defend the Russian army in the direction of Heilongjiang. The combat effectiveness of this army is still in the run-in stage, and it is very dangerous if the Russians are allowed to find out the truth and the truth.
"What jihua do you have?"
Nyerere's thick lips twitched: "I have a disagreement with Huang Bao on this matter, and I want to arrest this guy right away, or kill him quietly." But Huang Bao wanted to keep this person. ”
Yang Xiaolin looked at Nyerere's eyes, and Old Ni knew that Commander Yang was waiting for him to continue.
"He said that after catching this spy, the Russians will send a second one, and we don't know who to send, so it's better to keep the one we already have, so that we can properly convey some information to the Russians that we want them to know."
Yang Xiaolin smiled, what Lao Ni said in such detail shows that this black brother supports Huang Bao in his heart. It's just that because he is a foreigner, Nyerere is very cautious in his speech when it comes to some major decisions.
"Old Ni," he grabbed Nyerere's thick hand, "You are my brother, I will let you sit in this position, whether your decision is right or wrong, I will bear all the responsibilities with you." ”
Nyerere looked at him for a while, and then said softly: "Okay, my opinion is to agree with the execution of Huang Bao's jihua, this kid is too bold, his jihua is crazy, it takes a lot of energy and money, but if it succeeds, it will bring us unimaginable benefits!" ”
Nyerere pulled Yang Xiaolin to a hillside and stopped, and told Yang Xiaolin in detail the plan he had discussed with Huang Bao. (To be continued......)
