1949 I am from the future

()【46】Big Artillery Doctrine <After the blood, Xiaoqiang did not stop, but returned to the warehouse, and walked to the East Third District with Minister Li.Xiaoqiang was dumbfounded when he arrived in the third east district. There are densely packed silver bricks here, yes, they are silver bricks!Big Silver Brick!One by one neatly stacked on the ground...

At this moment, Minister Li solemnly pulled Xiaoqiang back and turned to look at him, staring into his eyes and said word by word: "Here is 800 tons of silver, 20 kilograms each, a total of 4 yuan, which is the entire wealth of the Republic. There are only 15 tons of gold and more than 300 tons of silver in our treasury. Now the country can no longer produce gold. The silver is here, and it has all been taken out. In addition, the government has borrowed from various military regions and local governments through various channels. Come, all the old things that can be taken out are here. Our people's government has just been established, and it is a newborn baby. There are not many things that can be taken out, and every coin is not easy. You have to make good use of this silver. The organization believes that You have this ability to make good use of him, and I still say that, safety first."

After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other silently for a while, Xiaoqiang's eyes became moist somehow, and his soul was light. Could it be that there was a sandstorm in the warehouse.

What is hard to buy is trust, the great trust of the motherland, the hope of the people, what can 800 tons of silver be exchanged for?What does the motherland need?Although Zhong Yang instructed that the Republic needs everything at this stage and asked Xiaoqiang to play it by ear, Xiaoqiang knew that trust itself was a kind of pressure, and this burden related to the future of the motherland fell on his shoulders.

Before, Xiaoqiang felt that the country was like a cornucopia, and he could continue to purchase from 2010. Now he has a sense of urgency for the first time. It seems that the country’s gold reserves have been exhausted. He didn’t know how to squeeze out the previous 20 tons of gold. , Another 800 tons of silver came out here.

Without saying a word, Xiaoqiang looked at Minister Li's wrinkled face and expectant eyes, just nodded, tore off the band-aid on his left hand, squeezed the incision, blood began to flow, the fresh blood injected into Xiaoqiang's body was now compatible with Xiaoqiang merged into one body, they boiled silently, and splashed on the silver ingot with Xiaoqiang's movements...

Last night, Xiaoqiang slept very deeply, snoring like thunder. In his dream, he felt that he had put on his wings, and the great rivers and mountains of the motherland were galloping past his feet. There was a voice shouting in his ears, wake up, wake up...

When Xiaoqiang sat in the conference room of the Ministry of National Defense again, although General Yuan and Li Mubai smiled brightly, let alone the surprise in their hearts, the big dog came again, what is he going to buy this time?

Xiaoqiang was not too polite, and straight to the point after drinking his saliva, he reported his intentions:

“1000门63式107mm12管火箭炮，120万发火箭弹。”

General Yuan has a big head. He has never seen such a customer. The things he buys are cheap, but the demand is huge.

He is very familiar with the 63-type 107 rockets. Our country has been exporting them for many years. Together with ak47 and 69-type 40 rocket launchers, they are called the three major guerrilla warfare artifacts.He nodded and said: "The export price is 86 euros per door and [-] euros per rocket. This is the price we exported to a certain country before. We are old acquaintances. How about I give you a [-]% discount?"

After speaking, General Yuan looked at Xiaoqiang with a guilty conscience.

Xiaoqiang almost jumped up, and raised his voice and shouted: "General Yuan, you are a bit dark. I heard that the price for our army's own use is only more than 1 yuan. The export is basically directly converted from RMB to Euro. I understand this. Foreigners If you don’t make money, you don’t make money, but I’m also a regular customer, and you have to give me a price that is similar to my own use. This is not a one-shot deal. I still have more orders for warships in the future. Let me tell you, I will Help the remaining Jianghu ranks in our army to find a new home, three years! No, I promise to sell them all within two years!" Xiaoqiang swore confidently and patted his chest.

Yuan Kedi's eyes shone brightly. As a military officer in his 50s who dealt with people every day, he could tell that Xiaoqiang was definitely not lying.After all, his previous style of being a big dog has proved this point.He nodded and said:

"Since you said so, well, 12 for a 3-barrel rocket launcher, 230 for each rocket, a one-shot price, so don't pay it back."

Xiaoqiang replied decisively: "It's a deal!"

After calculating the price, the cannon cost 3000 million yuan, and the rocket shell cost a full 2.76 million yuan. In the end, the two parties agreed to pay 3.1 million yuan, and General Yuan would add more accessories to the list.

With the coverage firepower with a range of 8.5 kilometers, Xiaoqiang also wants a firepower that can confront the US "Long-legged Tom" M23.5 self-propelled artillery with a range of 40 kilometers.For the People's Liberation Army in 1949, the self-propelled artillery was a bit pretentious. Wouldn't it be enough to find a truck to tow it?

“59-1式130毫米加农炮给我1000门，炮弹300万发。”

The so-called cannon is the kind of artillery with a long barrel that we often see on TV. This kind of artillery has a straight trajectory and can hit very far.

General Yuan asked, "Do you want the old one?"

Xiaoqiang said, "I want the old ones too."

General Yuan said with satisfaction: "I'll give you a thoughtful price, 15 RMB per door. If it's exported for foreign exchange, it's 15 US dollars per door. The shells are worth 100 RMB each, and I'll give you some ammunition of all kinds. So 100 is the average price.”

Xiaoqiang secretly slandered: "This old cannon is still sold at a new price. Fortunately, it is only slightly more expensive than the price for self-use. If the foreign trade price is 15 US dollars, it would be too cheating, but these days, such an old cannon Who will sell it at this price? Now all countries in the world are following the fashion, and the main trend is that the artillery is crawler self-propelled, and the towed ones are not easy to sell, let alone the old ones. Equipped with heavy towed guns, after all, this is too unsuitable for guerrilla warfare."

小强点头答应了下来。1000门59-1式130毫米加农炮加上300万发炮弹总价为4.5亿。

"I said General Yuan, can you search for some of the Type 54 122mm caliber towed howitzers and 152mm towed howitzers that our army has retired. They are all retired anyway, so why not just sell them to me as scrap iron?" Xiaoqiang tentatively asked.

General Yuan is also a bachelor, so he opened his mouth and said: "Although they are retired, they can't be sold as scrap iron. These old guns still have a market in Asia, Africa and Latin America. In this way, you can get 54 Type 122 1000mm guns and 152mm guns for you. 500 doors, plus 200 million rounds of shells for you, you give me 2 million, and I will earn you a shell money."

Xiaoqiang thought in his heart that what he bought was not as good as what he sold, so that's it.I agreed.

So this military purchase ended like this. After collecting enough cannons, Xiaoqiang left the Ministry of National Defense with satisfaction after negotiating the follow-up details.

In Xiaoqiang's view, the current procurement is enough to greatly improve the military strength of 1949. With the support of military strength enough to protect national sovereignty, it is time to invest more funds in economic construction.
