"That's right."

Listening to Xu Zhining's comfort, Zhang Yuanzhi's mood suddenly improved a lot.

Liu Xuanren followed the back of the convoy in a flat-headed modified ten-wheeled truck, and the wide cab with sleepers was crammed with people.

It's not because it's cold in the open compartment at the back, it's because there's heating in the cab: the water-cooled radiator in the car has a bypass that connects to a small radiator in the cab and is controlled by a manual valve.

Although the radiator is not large, it is still somewhat useful in the cold winter.

Liu Xuanren stared intently at the situation ahead, although there were snow chains on the tires, but it was the first time for him to take this road.

Beside him, Liu Xuanli and Liu Xuanren were also staring at the smooth road ahead together.

From Jincheng to Guyuan near Liupan Mountain, a distance of nearly 300 kilometers, the whole team spent more than a day, and just over half of the journey.

It's almost noon again, and some of the uncompacted snow on the road has begun to melt......

At one o'clock in the afternoon, I could see the county seat in front, and a "alpaca" leading in front of me gradually slowed down, parallel to Liu Xuanli's truck.

Liu Xuanren shifted gears and slowed down and pulled down the window glass.

Before Liu Xuanren could speak, the captain of the transport squadron in the passenger seat of the "alpaca" had already lifted the sail window and shouted at Liu Xuanren: "Everyone, the front is Jingning County, do you want to stop and rest for a while?" ”

Liu Xuanli smiled: "You are the captain, you have the final say, you just have to watch it." What we had in the car was just some holiday gifts. ”

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."

The "alpaca" accelerated and returned to the front of the convoy.

At noon, Guo Jiaqi invited all the soldiers of the transport team to eat Jingning's specialties: small pot helmets and roast chicken.

In the roast chicken shop, Xu Zhining looked at the soldiers of the transport team sitting neatly with interest: The discipline of the Red Army is also very strong, but the daily norms of the Red Army are still too sloppy, and the movements are not as pleasing to the eye as the group of professional soldiers in front of them.

No wonder my father always said that the Red Army still has a long way to go before it is professionalized and regularized.

Seeing Xu Zhining looking at the other side, Liu Xuanli knocked on the table: "Eat." ”

Xu Zhining came back to his senses, sighed, and glanced at his second brother: "I really miss the time when I was in military training......

"Stop!"

Liu Xuanren glared at Xu Zhining angrily: "You are young, and you are a technical soldier, so you have to suffer much less than us." ”

"That's it!"

"That's it!"

……

The rest of the team also chimed in......

After lunch, the transport captain thanked Guo Jiaqi, and then the two chatted about family life......

Before getting on the bus, Guo Jiaqi expressed the idea of wanting to take a ride at the end of the year.

The other party's reply was: "The people of the convoy will be transferred back to Jiuquan in the spring." ”

Guo Jiaqi asked again and again, and the response he got was only a mysterious smile......

Guo Jiaqi was puzzled, on the way, holding the steering wheel, he asked Xu Zhining: "Zhining, what do you mean when you say he has been laughing?" ”

"Senior brother, these transports will soon become armored troops, and there is also a possibility of artillery." Xu Zhining smiled, "They have strict confidentiality regulations, so I can't go into details." ”

Guo Jiaqi suddenly realized: "Oh! I said so! ”

Zhang Yuanzhi's eyes lit up in the back row, and he leaned behind Xu Zhining and asked: "Xiao Ning, then you say, is it more likely to be armored or artillery?" ”

Xu Zhining thought carefully for a moment and replied, "The possibility of armored troops is greater. ”

Guo Jiaqi tilted his head and glanced at it, his face full of curiosity: "Why?" ”

"Senior brother, Brother Xuan Zhong is among the people who see him off, and before leaving, Brother Xuan Zhong must have explained, although there are confidentiality regulations, but for his own people, the secrecy of artillery is not so strict."

Guo Jiaqi had a feeling of being deceived: I took off my pants for a long time, what did you tell me?

Looking at Guo Jiaqi's disgruntled eyes, Xu Zhining swallowed his saliva and added: "Even if it is a self-propelled howitzer, it only needs professional artillery, and the driver can be trained in a short time." The armored corps is different, it is one thing to be able to drive, but the maintenance of peacetime requires a certain amount of professional mechanical knowledge. ”

Guo Jiaqi nodded, and made up his brain: "That means that the 'armored riot' stream that the old man mentions from time to time is not something that ordinary people can play?" ”

Xu Zhining sighed: "Now, the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and Germany can play." ”

Situ Qingfang in the back row wrenched his fingers for a while, feeling that Xu Zhining seemed to have missed something: "What about France?" ”

Xu Zhining smiled: "My old man said that since the French built the Maginot Line, they have already lost in the next battle. ”

"Why?"

The three girls didn't quite understand.

Xu Zhining shook his head: "Have you ever seen the Great Wall block the invasion of the nomads?" ”

Seeing that the three girls hesitated for a moment, and then shook their heads in unison, Xu Zhining sighed: "That's right, just can't be long, soft can't be guarded." At the time of the last war, France was already frightened and tried to stop the Germans once and for all. But I don't know, the fortress is never breached from the strongest place. ”

Xu Zhining glanced back at the three girls who were stunned there: "As for the 'armored riot flow' mentioned by the senior brother, it is a large-scale group charge of armored troops, and that kind of formation is not something that the French who want to do it once and for all can imagine." ”

"What about Japan?"

Xu Zhining smiled: "Japan is short of iron and oil, and the Japanese Navy, which has just withdrawn from the Washington Naval Treaty, still has the dream of giant ships and cannons, how can the army waste precious steel and oil." ”

Just when everyone was silent, Zhang Yuanzhi suddenly said: "So in this way, there will be armored troops in the northwest?" ”

Xu Zhining has a black line: Eldest sister, your reflection arc is too long, right?

Soon Xu Zhining was relieved: If it weren't for his father knowing that this product was a business spy and deliberately releasing water, Comrade Zhang Yuanzhi's amateur spy trip in the northwest might have been fruitless.

Continuing to move forward, we soon arrived at the Liupan Mountain Mountains: the forefront between the New Second Army and the Red Army, the 100th Division of the New Second Army in the Liupan Mountain area, was the last batch of troops in the northwest region to be equipped with new guns.

When he arrived in Liupan Mountain, Xu Zhining, who was sharp-eared, understood why he finally got a new rifle here, as one of the few elite divisions under Ma Xuanzhong, the "performance" of the 100th division on the front line of the "counteroffensive" was really difficult to compliment: the voice of the domestic Hanyang made sporadically sounded from time to time to show its existence; The occasional blasting sound, if it weren't for Xu Zhining's little mastery, he would have thought it was a real cannon sound......
