The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 631: Armored fighting vehicle

King Qin departed that night. A special railway line is built in Xianyang Palace. This is specially built for King Qin to travel. A special train of "Qin Wang" was parked on the platform of the railway station. There are tight guards all around.

King Qin has not come yet. There are not many others that Shangwen can recognize. Basically a few people like the royal family. The two parties salute each other and forget about it.

Shang Wenxian walked around without incident. The train consists of eight long carriages. The length of the train carriage has been greatly improved. If a carriage is full. It can reach more than one hundred people. If shipping goods. Then this number is also very impressive. The increase in train traffic is due to the application of various research results.

Qin's trains still use old-fashioned steam locomotives. But the length of his locomotive and the actual power produced have been greatly improved. In some details, it has also achieved the ultimate. Such as car lights, electric power system, heating system, this train of King Qin is currently the best train in Qin State. There are also air-conditioning equipment on it. Even the kitchen is equipped with a refrigerator. Because the cable line is mainly laid out along the railway line. and so. King Qin only needs to rest. You can send and receive information about the various regions of Qin. There was an electric signal transmission on the radio side. Because I don't know the existence of the ionosphere. Researchers are discussing this issue.

Although there is no radio equipment in use yet. But it won’t take long. The decoration inside the train is also very luxurious. Shang Wen has only seen one carriage. There is a personal toilet and bathroom in the compartment. Qin’s toilet and bath are separate. This is related to the identity of King Qin. There are also three large luxurious bedrooms. A meeting room, reference room and various living rooms, entertainment facilities. These facilities use five of the eight carriages. The rest are guards, kitchens, and material reserves. If needed. A spare carriage can be mounted on the rear at any time.

In order to ensure the safety of train travel. King Qin traveled at night as far as possible. Because the night time table can be changed at will. It's mainly cargo. There are also fewer night trains. If you change the day. The travel time is very limited. at this point. The arrangement is a bit complicated. Qin State roughly divided the train operation into three major regions. West District, North District, East District. The Southern District is currently under construction and has not been included. But their meeting point is centered on Xianyang. Only Xinzheng can count as the second junction after the construction of the Southern District Railway. Xianyang in Qin State is currently the largest railway transportation hub.

But this year Qin State planned a number of railway construction plans. For example, the entire East-West Mongolia Railway. The railway connecting Handan to East Mongolia and Handan to Xinzheng. Railway construction from Xinzheng to Daliang. In addition, the longest railway from Hexi Corridor to the entire Western Regions is under construction. It is expected that the basic construction of these main railway lines will be successful in two years. At that time, Qin State had a preliminary railway network.

Shang Wen thought as he walked. But Shangwen suddenly noticed when he reached the last train. Two temporary carriages are mounted. It's the last section that hangs. That section is a flatbed truck. The car is loaded with hanging things wrapped in a large cloth.

"What is that?" Shang Wen asked strangely.

"Oh, nothing." An officer explained.

"It's nothing?" Shang Wen looked at the officer and then at the cloth. It looks like a special vehicle from the outline. Because the tractors and special tracked vehicles that he and Shang Wen saw were similar in layout. Such as lifting vehicles and so on.

"Oh, it's the Prime Minister." Wei Liao asked where he came out of nowhere.

"Oh, it's the lieutenant! What is this?" Shang Wen pointed to the flatbed truck and said.

"Sir, why don't you guess?" Wei Liao said with a smile.

"Oh!" Shang Wen looked at Wei Liao. Looked at the flatbed truck again.

"Give me a hint! You can't guess so randomly!" Shang Wen said.

"Well, it's a secret weapon." Wei Liao said mysteriously.

"Secret weapon?" Shang Wen couldn't figure it out.

"Secret weapon? What secret weapon". Shang Wen thought. Guowei Mansion is the only department in Qin State that can purchase weapons and equipment. Here controls all Qin's military equipment procurement expenses. The major weapons manufacturers in order to get weapons orders. Many new weapons have been invented. Recently, air-cooled machine guns have been reduced by one-third of their weight. Heat sinks are used in the automotive field. Then it went smoothly in terms of machine guns. And the earliest model even had an electric fan. But it was quickly cancelled. Because of uneven heat dissipation.

"Army weapons or heavenly weapons?" Shang Wen then asked.

"army". Wei Liao replied.

"Army!" Shang Wen looked at the big guy.

Could it be that! Shang Wen looked back at Wei Liao. Qin's engine developed rapidly. Especially the use of large eight-cylinder diesel engines. Many heavy lifting special vehicles use this kind of engine. Could it be. Thinking of this, Shangwen should think so.

"Is it a tank?" Shang Wen asked suspiciously.

"What grams?" Wei Liao asked, looking at Shang Wen.

"Oh, isn't it an armored tank?" Shang Wen reacted to the country. The tank is transliterated. It should be called an armored fighting vehicle.

"Well, almost. It's a armored tank." Wei Liao said.

"Iron armored chariot?" Shang Wen said while looking at the big guy on the flatbed.

"Yes, we welded the iron armor around the tracked vehicle. It forms a large airtight box. In this large box. We are equipped with six machine guns. These six machine guns form a huge firepower net. There is no dead angle between each other. Although. The speed is not very fast. But I don't think anyone can cut off this thick iron armor!" Wei Liao said happily.

Then Shang Wen and Wei Liao discussed the development process of armored combat vehicles. The cause is simple. That is the difficulty that the light cavalry encountered in this battle in the Western Regions. There is also a stalemate on the Eastern Front. With the crazy upgrade of firepower. The opponent has realized it. The chance of being killed standing on the ground is very high. But if you lie on the ground, you can barely survive. Especially take advantage of obstacles caused by uneven ground to avoid. This allowed the war to enter a state of underground warfare. In the Western Regions. This is the case with the stronghold in the Western Regions besieged by the Qin Army. They defended by digging trenches. Although firepower can help the Qin army occupy the opponent. But the other party effectively avoided the bullet shot by Qin Jun. in contrast. The opponent also used the gully to fight back.

The infantry suffered a lot of damage. This requires a weapon that can replace and protect infantry. This is the reason for the armored fighting vehicle. Effective combination of weapons and vehicles. Especially a new type of mobile platform provided by the development of the automobile industry.
