Chapter 538 Fire Snake
Jiang Li opened it directly at a price and transported it from the United States, which was somewhat time-consuming and day-consuming. Besides, the steel industry in the northwest expanded rapidly at this time, especially after obtaining the iron ore in Baotou, there was indeed a large gap in talent and technical work, and there was no time to draw so much manpower to Sichuan for a while. Although the Soviet metal smelting technology was not necessarily much better than that in the northwest, as long as the other party was willing to provide help, it was always good. ∽↗∽↗,
"Okay, I will truthfully transfer the commander's request back to China. However, do you think the requirements are too high compared to what you have paid? I don't think this transaction can be successfully reached."
Brlev hesitated and said, "If it were normal, Jiang Li's request would be nothing, but the situation in Europe is becoming increasingly tense at this time, and steel production is extremely important for any country at present.
"I have no choice. Now the Northwest is responsible for the operations in several directions. Even at this moment, I have to take charge of myself. If I can have one-tenth of your country's strength, I don't have to work so hard. What can I do if the troops below need guns and bullets in the battle? However, your efforts will not be in vain. If the Northwest's strength is improved a little more, the Japanese army will be killed or injured. The pressure on the Japanese army faced by your country in the Far East will naturally be much lighter. Besides, I am not unconditionally asking your country to pay. If your country feels inconvenient, you can provide our country with a batch of steel smelting equipment first. At the same time, I place a batch of orders from the United States and then make up for the equipment there. Your country is just delaying a little time and will not suffer any substantial losses, right? Of course, I can also provide cash and foreign exchange. I believe your country still needs this." Jiang Li smiled bitterly.
"This is a bit feasible." Brlev nodded. Of course, the Soviet Union did not fund the Northwest or Nanjing for free. What was a little dissatisfied with Jiang Librev because he was too strict in the selection of weapons, so that the Northwest wanted to use the war between the Northwest and Japan, and used the Northwest's hard-earned money to help the Soviet Union replace more new equipment. Fortunately, Nanjing is not as tricky as the Northwest. With previous transaction experience, Brlev did not think that building a steel factory of this size could fool Jiang Li on the equipment. In short, the Northwest's money was not so good. According to Jiang Li's meaning, it was just to ask the Soviet Union to provide equipment first, and the United States' equipment arrived slower, and then make up for the Soviet Union's deficit. In short, the Soviet Union only delayed a little time. This is not unacceptable.
However, in Brlev's opinion, Jiang Li seemed a little too anxious. But he didn't know that the Soviet Union had a great family and could afford to delay this little time. But now the most scarce time for the Northwest industry, which had entered the take-off stage, is time. Now the time is getting tighter and tighter from Japan to the north and south. Once it reaches that threshold, it will be even more difficult for the Northwest to get equipment from outside. Now Feng Yong's group is getting bigger and bigger, and Jiang Li always withdraws funds as quickly as possible to exchange them for various machine tools, and transports the equipment to the northwest. The Soviet Union can afford to delay this little time, but the Northwest cannot.
"These Soviets are very tight. If you have the chance, you must take revenge in the future." As soon as Brlev left, Yang Ying walked out of the side hall. She asked Jiang Li in a tone of questioning Brlev. Yang Ying felt particularly uncomfortable. At this time, her pretty face was frosty and stared at the direction where Brlev left.
"Those who know the times are heroes. There are still many places in the northwest that rely on the Soviet Union. Just tomahawk tanks, the Soviet Union wants them, just give them." Jiang Li didn't care. Berlev hit a few nails in Lanzhou, which made the Soviets who recently turned Northwest into their back garden naturally feel unhappy. Of course, Jiang Li from President Zhou also said hello, so Berlev came to Luoyang from Lanzhou and was also his intentional push.
"The movement in Julu this time is indeed a little bit bigger, but it is normal for the Soviets to hide it. Since this is the case, there is no need to hide the results of the war. Several large-scale battles we have fought with the Japanese army recently ended in failure, and some victory is needed to boost the air. In addition, the general machine guns of the Fire Snake and some new weapons produced in the arsenal in the northwest in the future should be kept strictly confidential, unless inevitable factors are inevitable, and the Soviets must be not alerted."
"Don't arouse the alertness of the Soviets? I'm afraid it's not realistic. No weapon from you is a vulgar product. It will definitely shine on the battlefield in the future." Yang Ying said with a smile on her beautiful eyes.
"That's for sure. If it were a common thing, I wouldn't take it out." Jiang Li admired Yang Ying's reasoning. In fact, some of the weapon designs he secretly provided to the Northwest Arsenal were through other channels, and did not directly pass Yang Ying, in order to avoid people's eyes and ears as much as possible, but Yang Ying was still noticed. Feng Chuyan's ability is also good, but it is more reflected in financial management. Moreover, there is an old mother at home who takes care of her husband and children, and she is also inseparable from Lanzhou for a while. In this kind of intelligence analysis, Yang Ying is indeed the most capable person under Jiang Li. When he was in Lanzhou before, most of them were accompanied by Feng Chuyan. After coming to Luoyang this time, Jiang Li also intends to make up for his shortcomings with Yang Ying.
"The sample gun of the Fire Snake General Machine Gun will be sent to Luoyang soon. I really don't know. I heard that the data in all aspects of the test are very good. I really don't understand. If you have such an excellent weapon in your hand, why didn't you take it out earlier?" Yang Ying said in a little incomprehensible.
"Some weapons do not appear earlier, the better. The industrial strength of the Northwest was not good in the past. Even if it was taken out, this general-purpose machine gun was more capable and easier to produce than the previous heavy machine guns. However, the Northwest itself was not high, and if it could not hold the fire, it would still be able to be taken by the Soviets. I don't want the Northwest Army to be able to be taken by the Soviets before it equipped this machine gun on a large scale, and even spread to Japan through some channels."
