Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 479: Fly, head of state (part one)

The Kummersdorf Weapon Proving Ground (this article previously called it Kummersdorf, but the translation is only a difference. Now the pronunciation is more accurate. 8 "1 Chinese Δ" net) is about fifty kilometers away from the city of Berlin, This is not the kind of military shooting range that people imagine as large as a few football fields, with a pile of targets erected on it and a circle of barbed wire outside, but a comprehensive test base composed of a series of weapon test fields.

There is an obstacle course for testing off-road vehicles, and a special shooting range for testing infantry light weapons. In addition to the unique jungle and wasteland environment of Northern Europe, the Germans also simulated deserts and artificial swamps here. There is even a second A huge shooting range ten kilometers long and five kilometers wide is used to test heavy artillery and various explosive weapons.

These test areas are separated from each other by a large jungle. In addition to facilitating confidentiality and safety, it also avoids possible interference between various test projects. All test bases are connected by a road for safe work Taken by an independent infantry regiment. The military has built a huge barracks covering an area of ​​four square kilometers in the nearby jungle. All facilities are readily available, just like a modern town, dedicated to the research teams and guards who are experimenting here to live and use. .

Captain Groot led his reconnaissance platoon to complete the morning test mission. As a motorized scout, many soldiers in the platoon completed the European war. Everyone has one or two medals on their chests. One of the reasons why they were selected here to participate in the new equipment test.

Since Yuan personally intervened in the development of German weapons, the German project teams began to follow Yuan’s instructions, and specially selected soldiers with actual combat experience to participate. After all, the actual weapons will be ordinary soldiers. They know the real What the battlefield is like, know how to use the weapons in your hands.

Groot’s platoon carries six half-track motorcycles numbered as model, and two modified Volkswagen Beetles. He and his guys have been fighting with these two little monsters for the past two weeks. Fighting, it was only half a day today, and everyone was exhausted by the various problems encountered in the experiment.

"Fifteen minutes of rest on the spot, we must return to the barracks before twelve o'clock, otherwise we won't be able to make lunch." Groot supported the door of the Beetle, moving his lumbar spine that was almost broken. These experimenting experts are all lunatics. Next time, even if the team leader points a gun to his head, Grandpa Groot will definitely not come again.

This cute car, which was allegedly designed by the former prime minister, still retains the iconic sleek appearance, but the motive is replaced by a 55-horsepower gasoline motive, which raises the chassis of the vehicle and changes it to four Wheel drive, these improvements give this car a terrible off-road capability. With special off-road tires that deepen the tooth marks, this little monster can jump and jump in the tracked vehicle obstacle zone. Scouts actually like this kind of car very much, the only opinion is that the shock absorber of this thing is still a bit too hard.

What surprised Groot even more is that this light off-road vehicle is also armed. He has seen the machine gun tower prepared by the technician for it, which can be installed on the roof sunroof through a bracket system. The armor shield is equipped with an unknown model mg machine gun, which is said to be an improved version of the mg34, with a square section barrel sheath.

As for the half-track little devil, Groot no longer knows how to evaluate it. The primary model of this gadget has been in service in some troops. At present, this is the latest modification developed under the requirements of Yuan. Generally speaking, the performance is actually quite good. It has the power of a road vehicle and the off-road capability of a tracked vehicle. A driver, the rear seat can carry 300 kilograms of weight, four armed infantry riding back to back, or towing a 75mm anti-tank gun.

The disadvantage is that after installing a 42-horsepower gasoline engine, this little guy's weight is over two tons, and the mechanical structure is a bit complicated for ordinary soldiers, making it difficult for battlefield recovery and maintenance. Because it is a newly developed model, the failure rate is still relatively high, which really caused the scouts to suffer a lot in the experiment.

This mini-type half-track vehicle, the technicians of the nsu depot even made an armed version for it. They installed a simple gun mount in the rear compartment, and placed a 75mm lg4o recoilless vehicle on it. gun.

The scouts responded well to this gun. They are light armed forces and cannot carry heavy firepower. Their advantage lies in their flexibility and mobility, but sometimes they also need to head against the enemy. Although this artillery has obvious flaws, the maximum range of 6,800 meters and the hollow charge warhead give the light motorized troops the ability to fight against enemy tanks at long distances.

It’s just that this type of artillery still has obvious flaws. For example, it can only be used in open areas, and people cannot stand within 50 meters behind it. The muzzle shock waves are strong, which will seriously damage the gunner’s hearing.

The technicians of Rheinmetall stated that they were inspired by Yuan and have achieved a technological breakthrough. It is expected that safer and improved models will appear before the end of the year.

Captain Groot and his men felt that this kind of light artillery developed for paratroopers was enough to meet their current needs.

"Sir, you should come and listen to this. I don't know what's going on on the radio." The correspondent sitting in the passenger seat of the Beetle, poked his head out of the car window to report loudly.

"What did you hear?" Groot took a cigarette and walked quickly to the other side of the car, took the headset from the communicator and put it on his head.

"This is the frequency of Team 3o2." The signalman adjusted the knob.

"Where are they doing the experiment today?" Groot asked with a headset on one side. There was obvious interference in the signal. Obviously, several radio stations used this frequency at the same time, which was obviously abnormal.

"They are in the arena today." The correspondent replied. He was referring to a somewhat irregularly rounded weapon shooting range with a protective **** to block bullets, which looked a bit like an ancient Roman Colosseum.

"Well, it doesn't sound like a communication failure. Did you hear the call code?" Groot threw the cigarette **** on the ground and ran it with his foot.

"No, I'm adjusting the frequency, and I heard this. It's like a carnival ball inside."

"I can't hear what's going on, intermittently. There are always smart guys who think they're violating radio regulations, and the gendarmerie will find them." Groot took out another cigarette from the cigarette case. The clever communicator quickly took out a lighter and switched on for the company commander.

"Contact the camp to listen to the situation there, then turn off the radio, and we are ready to go out." Groot returned the headset to the communicator.

"Yes, sir." The signal soldier took the headset and started to adjust the frequency.

"Everyone got in the car, the rest was over, everyone gave me back to the car. Hank, wake up Rudolph. Hey, where are you two going? Whose kettle is this? Who is it? The kettle is here."

The scout company commander screamed and patrolled along the highway towards the end of the team. The scouts stood up from their resting positions and, under the command of their respective squad leaders, began to regroup on the side of the highway where the vehicles stopped.

"The situation is not bad, the motive has cooled down, and all vehicles have been filled with water." The mechanic at the end of the line reported to the captain. There was also a group of Rheinstein steel technicians with the mechanics. These experts still looked full of energy. When Groot arrived, they were still having a heated debate around the mini self-propelled artillery.

"Gentlemen and gentlemen, we are going out. If you have any questions, you can go back to the camp and discuss it. Now everyone is in the car. We still have half an hour's drive." Groot said loudly with his hips folded. To.

"Captain, I just had a new idea. We can install another shield on the side so that the gunner can be better protected..." a technician said excitedly.

"Okay, okay, anyway, you modify it. Let's try it out. Everything has to be done step by step. Now please get back to the car." The captain smiled and replied, these are senior talents that he can't afford to offend.

At this moment, a dull motivated roar came from one end of the highway, and accompanied by the sound of metal rubbing, the people present were either experienced weapons experts or battle-tested scouts. They immediately distinguished it. That was the movement of a tank when it was driving.

"I bet it is a number four tank." a technician said to his companion.

"Forget it, everyone here can hear it." As a result, the companion rolled his eyes back with disgust.

The roar was getting closer, and then an object with a dazzling white light appeared on the top of the highway. It sprinted so fast that it even flew a short distance from the ground, almost unabated. Down the gentle slope, dragging the billowing smoke and roaring towards Groot's convoy.

"God, what exactly is that?" The technicians were dumbfounded.

"All off the road! Everyone off the road, all get off, it's dangerous." Groot reacted first. He had participated in the Paris military parade and recognized the prototype of the thing at a glance.

"It is a tank belonging to the tank regiment directly under the Yuan, so let it go." Groot warned loudly.

In fact, there is no need for him to remind, there is no fool here, and the others have hidden by the road. While grumbling, the soldiers looked at the speeding No. 4 tank, the armored box of the legendary Yuan.

"Look, this is a long-barreled 75mm tank gun, a Krupp product." A technician whispered ~IndoMTL.com~ This chrome-plated armor plate is produced by Rheinmetall, and The brass decoration on the top is said to be plated with real gold. "His companion added.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, what did I see! God! All stand at attention!" Groot suddenly shouted loudly, his voice became sharp and thin because of his nervousness.

"It's Yuan... ahem... Yuan is in the car, salute, salute, bastard, don't stand stupid! Hi! Reinhardt!" Groot straightened his chest, standing like With a javelin, he raised his right arm aloud to salute Yuan of the Third Reich.

"Hi! Reinhardt!" The soldiers heard the officer's yelling. Although they didn't know what was born, Yuan heard clearly on the tank. They hurriedly stood at attention and followed the officer's arms. salute.

The tank driver apparently saw someone on the side of the road and started to slow down the car. When the tank slowly passed by Groot, everyone could clearly see the Imperial Yuan standing on the control tower.

"Hi! Reinhardt!" The cheers became louder, and the scouts were so excited. They had never seen their idol, the war **** of the Third Reich, so close, and the scene before them was like a dream , So that some people couldn't help but shed tears.

Xu Jun raised his right arm aloft, paying respect to his loyal soldier, with a reserved smile on his face, such an elegant manner, and such a handsome appearance, matched with the gleaming tank he was riding in. Like a **** who descended to the earth.

"It can be added, Randolph, take us out of here quickly. This group of soldiers will definitely report to their superiors."

With a charming smile on Yuan's face, he whispered into the microphone of the intercom in the car.
