Chapter Forty-Nine
Faced with the No. 4 H-type tank he had built, Yang Wei was so proud that he selected a few of his men for driving training. When the No. 4 H-type tank was running like a tiger on the training ground, a burst of applause came from Yang Wei's side.
There was a sound from behind, causing Yang Wei to turn his head in surprise, and saw several Germans with curly hair and tall noses walking towards him.
Yang Wei was inevitably curious. He specifically chose this location because it was far away from the city and was sparsely populated. Even farmers and fishermen would not go near this place on weekdays. Why did it attract a few Germans today? The first thing that came to Yang Wei's mind was
The first thing that came to mind was von Box, but he was not found among the crowd.
The leader of the Germans had a serious look in his eyes. He didn't even look at Yang Wei, but looked straight at the speeding tank. From his every move, it was not difficult to see that this man must be a soldier. The other man following him
The man, who was wearing a woolen suit, stretched out his hand to Yang Wei and introduced: "Hello, Mr. Yang, first of all, please allow us to introduce ourselves. This is Mr. Hans Remke."
Yang Wei frowned. His training ground was an open area with no closed environment. Once someone broke in, it would be difficult for the security team to intercept him. He felt relieved when he thought of this.
After an explanation from Carl Schkomm, who was accompanying Hans Remke, Yang Wei learned that the scene where he arranged for personnel to conduct tank driving training was seen by Germans who happened to pass by. They were all worried about this kind of situation.
The speed of the tracked vehicle was so surprising that even Hans Remke came to visit after hearing about it. Blood Tempering Mountain River 49
Yang Wei's tank uses a star-shaped V8 gasoline engine, which can reach a speed of 55 kilometers per hour, far exceeding the 40 kilometers per hour of German tanks using Maybach engines, Lieutenant Colonel Hans Remke hopes.
Looking at the Type IV H tank speeding across the training ground, the speed was simply astonishing.
If it can be applied to the battlefield, speed alone will give it an absolute advantage. In addition, Yang Wei has increased the thickness of the front armor and the sloped armor design on the original design, which can further improve enemy resistance.
able.
The most important thing is that Yang Wei's tank design gives the Germans an inexplicable sense of intimacy, as if this thing belongs to Germany. Due to the restrictions of the Treaty of Versailles, the Germans cannot have armored forces. Currently, Germany does not have any armored forces.
After it was formally established, the tank was still an iron-shelled tortoise crawling slowly in the minds of German soldiers.
The Germans came all the way here just to have a look. The smell of wine is not afraid of the deep alleys. Meeting this Bole who fell from the sky today is already a great recognition of his modified Type IV H tank. Yang Wei is even more proud.
He led several people to the living room on the first floor.
Before the coffee was served, Carl Schkomm spoke first: "Mr. Yang, the speed of a tracked vehicle like yours is so amazing that it doesn't even look like a tractor. If you install a cannon directly,
It will become an absolutely new type of war weapon."
Obviously, this group of Germans had done a lot of homework and sufficient preparations before coming. The Krupp artillery ordered by Yang Wei from von Box will be delivered in a few days. On the other hand, Yang Wei just
Mounting rifles on the turret is also to conceal people's eyes and avoid large trees attracting wind.
However, there seemed to be another metaphor in Carl Skeem's "pity". Yang Wei pretended to be confused and said with a helpless face: "Artillery is not something that ordinary people can buy, and there is nothing I can do about it."
Hearing what Yang Wei said, Carl Schkom's eyes suddenly shone and said: "What if we are willing to provide Mr. Yang with a sum of funds and the newly developed J-series 75mm artillery gun by Krupp? I don't know if Mr. Yang is interested.
.”
Yang Wei didn't change his attitude on the surface, but he was secretly happy. The artillery purchased by von Box was naturally different from the latest J-series 75mm cannon manufactured by Krupp in Sweden, but the Germans took the initiative to speak.
There must be another motive for providing artillery. Yang Wei said expressionlessly: "Of course I am interested, but I will not receive any reward for no merit."
Yang Wei's aloofness made Carl Schkem extremely surprised, and at the same time he was filled with admiration. Before Carl Schkem could speak, Hans Remke, who had been sitting next to him with his eyebrows furrowed in silence, spoke.
The military temperament honed in the bloody battlefield made him look calm and confident, and said in a deep voice: "We offer the J-series Krupp 75mm artillery and 500,000 marks to buy your design patent."
As expected, a person with high authority would startle everyone with his words without even opening his mouth. Yang Wei stared into Hans Remke's eyes and could see the earnestness and seriousness in them. A smile appeared at the corner of Yang Wei's mouth, Germany
People have always been known for their rigorous, rigid, and conservative style of conduct. Today, they just took a look at their modified Type IV H tank and categorically proposed to purchase the patent. The sincerity of the transaction and the interest shown in the Type IV H tank.
Beyond words.
Moreover, he only partially modified the original Type IV H tank. The salary of 500,000 marks is indeed not low. However, for such generous conditions, Yang Wei shook his head slightly and said: "I can sell the patent.
But I don’t need your Mark.”
Carl Schkem couldn't help but talk loudly. He didn't want half a million marks? Is this Yang Wei a lunatic? You must know that the service allowance of an ordinary German private is only three marks per month. What does half a million marks mean?
Carl Schkomm couldn't help but hesitated for a moment and said: "Mr. Yang, do you really understand the concept of design patent? Once the patented technology is sold, it means that the technical secrets and expertise can only be used by us who purchased the patent.
Then allow others to use it privately.”
Yang Wei waved his hand and interrupted Carl Schkem. As a person from later generations, would he not understand what a patent is? Yang Wei nodded and said seriously: "I know the concept of patents very well. I just said that there is no need for a mark."
It’s not that there is no need for remuneration. I hope to exchange technical training for the patent. I can transfer the vehicle manufacturing patent to you, but I need you to provide instructors to guide us and train a security team under me.”
As soon as these words came out, even Hans Remke could not help but frown. Before this visit, Hans Remke had sent his men to collect information about Yang Wei and learned that he did not belong to
It is unbelievable that any organization, warlord, or common man would ask Germany to provide instructors for military training.
However, Yang Wei vowed to refuse cash as remuneration and specified that Germany would provide military training as the only exchange condition. Hans Remke pondered for a long time before finally nodding his head and agreeing to Yang Wei's request. At that time, it was agreed to provide Yang Wei with J-series artillery pieces.
For related matters, at the same time, the best and strictest instructors were arranged to conduct training for Yang Wei's security team.
Yang Wei enthusiastically held Hans Remke's hand and said: "Dear Mr. Hans Remke, I believe you are a soldier, a German soldier. Imagine it! Hundreds and thousands of vehicles
Tank clusters were galloping on the flat land of Europe. The enemy was trembling in fear. They were advancing rapidly and intersecting. They were tactically divided and annihilated. The torrent of rolling iron armor was so spectacular."
After the translation, Hans Remke was stunned and couldn't say a word for a long time. Yang Wei was simply a natural tactician.
Satisfied, Yang Wei personally put them in a Mercedes-Benz velo car. Carl Schkem, who was sitting in the car, couldn't help but exclaimed: "What a strange Chinese. This is the first time I have seen someone who doesn't like money."

The taciturn Hans Remke said: "It's not that some people don't like money, but they know how to use small benefits in exchange for larger benefits. It seems that exchanging an instructor from us brings value to him.
It will be well over half a million marks."
Carl Skome was still confused, and said in confusion: "But he is not a soldier, and the need for an instructor is meaningless to him, isn't it?"
Hans Remke stared out the window in awe, smiled rarely, and said slowly in a deep voice: "With his ability and sharpness, he will definitely stand out among thousands of people, and maybe one day he will
