Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Guan Fei and Sun Yaohua had a comprehensive discussion on troop establishment, number of people, types of arms, and equipment, and the time passed one o'clock in the morning unknowingly.  At this moment, a staff officer on standby in the factory office looked happy, walked out of the building quickly, came to Guan Fei's side, leaned down and whispered: "Commander, I just received a call from Menghai Station, special train  We've passed Menghai Station, and we expect to arrive in half an hour! " "Okay, we've finally arrived!" Before Guan Fei could say anything, Sun Yaohua jumped up from the ground and shouted excitedly.  In order to avoid being noticed by others, this special train always stops at the remote branch roads specially prepared for meeting trains at each station during the day. It only leaves at night. It travels under the cover of night and stops at the nearest meeting branch at dawn.  Stop and wait.  In this way, section by section, we slowly moved to the base area.  It took more than a week of stopping and going after traveling thousands of kilometers to get there.  There is nothing we can do about this. After all, the country still maintains diplomatic relations with the Yading military government. Even if it supports Guan Fei, it can only help at the economic level.  ¡°Previously, apart from transferring the weapons collected from the People¡¯s Army to the base areas, the country did not provide any further military assistance.  If Guan Fei hadn't worked hard to build a small-scale precision manufacturing enterprise from scratch, which could make some of its own weapons and ammunition, it would have been like other People's Army units, and even normal training could not be guaranteed.  ¡°If it weren¡¯t for the fact that domestic military spending is severely reduced, the troops are quite complaining, and the top management has to relax controls on foreign arms sales, it would be impossible to pass this order.  "Everyone is here! Stand up!" Sun Yaohua impatiently ordered immediately.  Wow!  Hundreds of commanders and soldiers who had been waiting in the square in front of the factory headquarters stood up at the same time, touched their heels, and stared at the two leaders Guan Fei and Sun Yaohua with bright eyes, excited.  They all knew what they were going to receive today, and they had been excited for a long time. When they saw the staff officer walking out excitedly, the observant soldiers felt that something was going on.  Sun Yaohua was so excited, and everyone knew it well. Knowing that the equipment they were waiting for was about to arrive, they all stood up with a cheer, their eyes shining brightly, and they were eager to try.  Guan Fei smiled and shook his head.  They are all twenty-six-year-old young men, already married and have children, but Sun Yaohua is still as impulsive as a young man.  Even though it was still half an hour before the special train arrived, he couldn't help it.  Sun Yaohua¡¯s fighting style is to be brave and tenacious, not afraid of death and dare to fight tooth and nail.  He was not the strongest in the company at the beginning, but Guan Fei was very discerning and listed him as a key promotion target. He trained him carefully and finally trained him into his right-hand man.  Several years have passed. After half a year of training for mid-level and senior commanders in China and multiple training rotations, I have improved my skills, but my impulsive character has not changed. It is still the same as before.  However, any army needs such a fierce general. At critical moments, this kind of general will not be afraid of his own huge disadvantages on the battlefield, and dares to fight hard, bad, and bad battles.  , The military commander who knew how to protect himself did not dare to retreat. He could only move forward and fight the enemy with bayonets.  As for the traditional wise generals, to be honest, he really has no shortage of such people under his command.  ??The Chinese are known for their many thoughts and their tendency to look forward and backward when encountering problems. On the contrary, simple-minded and determined warriors like Sun Yaohua are rare animals.  This can also be regarded as a kind of military spirit.  Only a general like him can bring out a strong army that has the belief that "use me in the first battle and use me to win", is indomitable and will fall forward even in death!  It¡¯s not that he doesn¡¯t know how to fight, it¡¯s just that he doesn¡¯t like to play tricks.  This is a character that even Guan Fei does not have. If he were to lead it, he would probably lead the army into a technical army that specializes in techniques and tactics and strives to track various advanced weapons and equipment in the world. However, it lacks  The kind of momentum that makes you happy when you hear a battle and moves forward indomitably.  That¡¯s why he entrusted all the training of the troops to Sun Yaohua, intending that he would supplement the troops with calcium and improve the spirit of all officers and soldiers.  Looking at the group of commanders and fighters in front of him who were gearing up like little tigers, Guan Fei smiled.  Sun Yaohua was also very satisfied with everyone's mental state, and shouted with his usual loud voice: "Everyone, get on the train! Let's go! The target is the railway unloading platform!" "Yes! Everyone listen to the command, turn right in a row, and start running  ! Get on board! Target, unloading platform!" The leader repeated his order and took the lead.  Wow, snap!  Standing in front of him, Yilian first turned around beautifully, stood at attention, and then followed him neatly, running towards the heavy-duty flatbed loader dozens of meters away.  Upon arriving in front of the vehicle, the entire company automatically dispersed, boarded the assigned loading truck in shifts, and started the vehicle.The commander boarded the first heavy truck parked outside and set off with the truck.  As the leading car drove out, the following vehicles followed one after another, with a gap of five meters in front and behind.  "Second Company! Turn right! Run forward!" After the first company's vehicles had driven out nearly halfway, the instructor replaced the commander and issued the command for the second company to follow, followed by the third and fourth companies.  The quiet office area of ??the ammunition factory suddenly became lively, with the sounds of running, the low roar of engines, and the sound of passwords coming one after another. ?????????????????????????????? With the instructor who was behind the wheel, Guan Fei boarded the last heavy truck, followed the car in front, and drove out of the office area.  The unloading area is one kilometer away from the factory, with its back to the hills and facing the river. This is to avoid accidental explosions when loading and unloading raw materials and ammunition.  Dozens of heavy-duty trucks arrived one after another, turning their fronts and rears toward the railway track, leaving a thirty-meter open space.  After arriving, all the cars did not stall and kept the engines running at idle speed. The driver held the steering wheel and everyone else sat upright in their respective positions, patiently waiting for the arrival of the special train.  The lights in the cargo yard are brightly lit, illuminating the one-kilometer-long unloading area as bright as day.  More than twenty minutes later, the sound of heavy objects colliding faintly came from the west, and the dust on the surface of the rails was shaken up and down by the huge vibration.  The sound is getting louder and louder, and the human ear can clearly hear the clanging sound of wheels rolling over the rails. Looking far into the distance, in the dark night, two light spots as big as bowls are rumbling towards this direction, like winding waves in the night.  A giant stalking centipede.  "Get off!" The command came again. Except for the driver who was still on standby, everyone jumped out of the car and ran towards the railway track, pulling out a long line ten meters away.  Guan Fei stood in front of the team. Although the special train was still invisible in the night, he could still see its full picture clearly through the faint reflection on the train.  I saw heavy-duty flatbed trucks hanging behind the huge steam locomotive.  When the train turned due to the line, you could see two protrusions tied one behind the other on each flatbed, and the cargo was covered with green military canvas, making it impossible to see what was inside.  But from the long tube in front, you can still guess the true appearance of this batch of equipment, that is, tanks!  That¡¯s right, this special train is transporting Type 59 tanks!  The number is sixty-four!  With the help of his super eyesight, Guan Fei saw the tanks loaded on the flatbed truck in advance, but suddenly an interesting sentence came to mind in his mind: "The turret is scary when you look at it from a distance, but when you look at the five pairs of road wheels up close," he couldn't help but laugh out loud.  This is a sacred sentence that has been circulated on the Internet for hundreds of years. Even in the interstellar era, netizens still like to use a photo of the original 59th tank, juxtaposed with the photo of the star battleship, and then label it respectively: 59th; 59th modified  !  ¡°Then, the poster or other netizens started teasing: The turret looks scary from a distance, but the five pairs of road wheels look close.  Similarly, there are other "Look, the Wujiu opposite has gone down the mountain", "The American Star Destroyer brazenly invaded our country's star field. The commanders and fighters of the entire army were filled with indignation. The commander of the frontline space station gave an order, and my brave commanders and fighters  There are endless jokes about piloting the 59th to dispatch immediately and shoot down the invading Star Destroyer in the Vega Star Territory.  This piece of Internet magic that was still widely circulated in Guan Fei's era spread the name of the 59th Tank to hundreds of years later. Even Guan Fei was familiar with the name of the 59th Tank.  The reason why the Type 59 is so famous is that it is the first tank imported from the Soviet Union and manufactured by our country.  Starting from this tank, our country gradually established its own tank manufacturing and research and development system. Over the past few decades, the number of this tank manufactured has reached as many as 10,000!  Based on the 59 tank, there are countless improved models. The main gun alone has 100, 105, 120, 125 and other models. There are also many modifications based on the power system.  Version.  In addition, there are various major changes, and even magically modified models that have completely changed their appearance.  When various newer models of tanks were launched abroad, the country, on the one hand, had limited financial resources and on the other hand, lacked technological accumulation. It also worked hard on this tank, carrying out various modifications and using it as a platform to experiment with various types of tanks.  New technology, new equipment.  Because the appearance is completely different from the standard, it looks the same as the most advanced tanks in the West.  Military fans couldn't immediately identify whether this was a new tank, so they counted the road wheels of the tank. One, one, two, three, four, five, five pairs. Well, let's change it to five or nine!  All kinds of surprises suddenly turned into nothing.  From this, there is a turret that scares people to death from a distance, and five pairs of turrets that look close.A round of jokes.  Because of the proliferation of the Internet, this kind of joke about hating iron but not steel has become more and more widely used, and the joke has become more and more deviated from its original intention and turned into a kind of well-intentioned ridicule.  So much so that even though the country has developed various advanced tanks and even entered the interstellar era, this sentence still spreads. Even the Star Destroyer cannot escape this curse, and there are still people who pretend to be on both sides of the Star Destroyer.  Five pairs of road wheels were painted on the side to show that he was not talking nonsense, which caused a burst of laughter from the viewers.  In fact, the Type 59 was a very good tank during the time it came out.  Its imitation prototype is the Soviet T54 tank, which frightened the West in the early days of the Cold War. Its simple manufacturing process, reasonable body weight, simple driving operation, even hundreds of kilometers of assault distance, and the number of tens of thousands of tanks  The superiority has become a nightmare in the hearts of the entire Western Europe. While sleeping, they are worried that the Soviet tank sea will suddenly surge in and flood the entire Europe.  In terms of firepower and defense alone, the T54 and the domestic Type 59 are good, but they are definitely not the strongest.  However, in terms of the balance between protection and firepower, it was the first of modern main battle tanks. It found a balance point in the contradiction between firepower and protection, so that the main battle tanks developed later gave up the firepower of World War II.  The concept of supremacy or strengthening armor took a balanced approach and became the originator of modern main battle tanks.  But the glory will eventually pass.  No matter how much it is modified, the flaws in the early design have led to increasingly limited room for further modification of this tank. Facing the new main battle tanks successively launched by various countries around the world, it has become increasingly unable to perform on the battlefield.  Today¡¯s T54, or rather the 1959-style, is no longer the same as it was in the 1950s and 1960s.  Although it can¡¯t be said to have been eliminated by the times, it has indeed become a tank that can be called ¡°okay and usable¡±. It has gradually given up the limelight to its younger generations and relegated itself to the second line.  The only reason why Guan Fei chose to purchase this tank from China was that it was cheap!     Too cheap!  The current mainstream main battle tanks, European and American M60 and other visual vehicle-mounted equipment, cost as much as three million to five million US dollars. This is still the price for personal use. The export price not only reduces the protection, firepower, and vehicle-mounted equipment, but also increases the price significantly.  Although Soviet tanks are half cheaper than European and American tanks, their unit prices are still as high as 15.6 million to 2 to 3 million.  Besides, Guan Fei can¡¯t buy it either.  "But the unit price of the domestically made 59th tank is less than 500,000 yuan, and it is still priced in RMB!"  Even for external sales, it¡¯s still half a million, uh, US dollars!  However, the base area has close ties with the country, the economy is integrated, and the relationship between the two sides is extraordinary.  On the other hand, the military has poor ambitions. Considering that this tank is no longer advanced, even small countries do not value it very much, and the number of exports has been decreasing year by year.  In addition, there is a large amount of domestic equipment for this tank, so there is no money to buy new tanks. Since Guan Fei wants it, he can sell every one he can and recover some funds to make up for the gap in military expenditure, so he still pays for his own use.  For sale, the price of a single tank is still calculated at 500,000 yuan, and there is no opportunity to rip off the tank.  But it¡¯s not expensive to buy, but it¡¯s not cheap to use!  Domestic engines have always been a big problem. The Western tank engine overhaul time is 800 hours, the Soviet Union is a little worse, only 400 to 500 hours, the domestic diesel engine is worse than the Soviet Union, only more than 200 hours before overhaul!  Based on two hours of actual driving training for a tank unit every day, an engine can only be used for a hundred days, which means it needs to be replaced in more than three months!  The engine accounts for one-third of the price of the tank. Just replacing the engine is equivalent to buying a new tank every year.  This does not include track wear, transmission parts wear, and oil consumption.  Motorcycle hours are too low and usage fees are too high. These are the main factors that even small countries with tight military expenditures must consider again and again when purchasing Type 59 tanks.  Guan Fei has no choice.  The base area currently does not have the ability to manufacture large-scale castings. It cannot make them itself, so of course it can only be purchased from outside.  However, the base area is not even an internationally recognized political power. Even if they want to spend more money to buy it, no one is willing to sell it.  Instead of Wujiu, what else can be used?  Facing the tank and armored forces of the Yading Army, only our own side can best respond if we also have tanks and armored forces.  Besides, although the Type 59 lags behind the latest main battle tanks, it will suffer a lot in combat.  But facing the Yaoding Army, whose main equipment was tanks and armored vehicles equipped by the British Army in World War II, it was still an all-round crushing. Even if the two sides came close to engage in hand-to-hand combat, Wujiu would win without losing!  ??Besides, although we cannot build a complete vehicle, we can use the existing ones in the base area.The level of manufacturing is definitely not lacking in the ability to make small improvements locally.  As long as the tank is bought back, it is not up to you to decide how to change it!  With Guan Fei¡¯s understanding of the base¡¯s precision manufacturing capabilities, he dared to pat his chest and guarantee that the improved 59th tank would definitely be stronger than the first version of the 59th tank currently undergoing domestic modifications.  Who knows better than him the potential for improvement in the Five-Ninth Style?  The turret looks scary from a distance, but the five pairs of road wheels from a close look are no lie!  Mobile phone users please visit http://m.piaotia.net
