Datang: My father is the head bodyguard

Chapter 691 Armored Vehicles and Mortar Vehicles

Zhai Changsun was surrounded by generals who cared about him. Qin Qiong gently placed his hand on Zhai Changsun's shoulder and said, "Old Zhai, are you okay?"

Zhai Changsun covered his face and said, "I, Zhai Changsun, may not be considered a brave man, but I have never been frightened or scared on the battlefield, nor have I ever wanted to escape."

"Just now, I felt that the army I led would never be able to defeat this iron lump. I lost my composure. I'm sorry, everyone."

Li Jing sighed: "As a general, it is normal to consider these weapons as the opposite. I have not thought of how to restrain these equipment and weapons. At least when we are still using swords, these things are magic weapons of immortals."

Many generals also expressed their concerns. What if an enemy army appeared one day and they had the same weapons as the Tang Dynasty? What would they do then?

Yuchi Baoqi comforted them: "We produce one generation, develop one generation, conduct preliminary research one generation, and explore one generation. These weapons are invincible weapons now, but ten or twenty years later, they can only be called antiques."

Mo Qi also spoke up: "The governor is right. We, the military workers, are constantly striving for self-improvement. We are either in R&D or on the way to R&D! The Engineering Department swears to ensure that Datang's armaments will always be world-class!"

The covers on the tank base and turret were all pushed open, and the crew members quickly climbed out and lined up in front of the generals: "Warmly welcome the Tang generals to come and give us guidance!"

The generals in this circle greeted each other briefly and then began to gather around the tank, looking here and there, but no one dared to ask to sit in and try it out.

Yuchi Baoqi felt a little sad when he saw how cautious these generals were. Once upon a time, the generals of his own country were also like that when they looked at the equipment of other countries. They were so cautious that they dared not move forward, for fear that they would make a fool of themselves by accident and bring shame to their country.

Yuchi Baoqi clapped his hands and said, "Brothers, open the eyes of these generals! Let's see how our own things are made!"

The Tianwei military vehicle crew members immediately came to the generals and began to explain in detail the structure and operation of the tanks. The generals also relaxed a lot and asked the Tianwei military vehicle crew questions about the tanks seriously.

"This cannonball fires one round at a time, so how do we change the rounds?"

"After firing, the shell is automatically ejected, and then the loader picks up the shell and puts it into the barrel, locking the barrel and reporting to the gunner."

With that, the crew simply started the demonstration. The gunner adjusted the sight and stepped on the firing pedal. Of course, the artillery did not move as it was not loaded.

The loader held the shell ready, and then quickly put a shell into the base of the barrel: "Loading completed!"

Mo Qi held a stopwatch in his hand: "Seven seconds, excellent."

Another different "tank" also drove out of the garage and stopped steadily not far from the tank. Many generals who were on the periphery and could not squeeze in near the tank turned their eyes over here.

As a junior, Qin Huaidao naturally couldn't squeeze with these uncles to see the tanks. Now another tank came nearby, so he just seized the opportunity and turned around to wait for the uncles to finish looking before looking at the tanks. Perfect.

"Brother, this is not a tank, what is this?"

Yuchi Baoqi opened the double doors from the back of the armored vehicle. Since the armored vehicle had a crew of only two people, the rest were supplementary Tianwei Army infantrymen, and there were only two Tianwei Army soldiers in the cab of the armored vehicle.

Qin Huaidao got into the armored vehicle, looked around, and looked back and forth at the shooting holes and observation positions.

"The armored vehicle, tentatively codenamed Si, can pass through all kinds of rugged terrain. There are electrically controlled machine guns on the top and sides of the vehicle. It can provide personnel-killing firepower on the battlefield and transport soldiers to various strongholds and trenches."

"But this thing is actually more suitable for combat and use in cities. The Hundred Cavalry Division will probably order quite a few of them, and the public security agencies established in various places will also be equipped with quite a few."

Qin Huaidao wanted to say something, but Yuchi Baoqi interrupted him: "Sixty vehicles have been reserved for you on the warship."

Qin Huaidao just grinned and laughed. Seeing that he was laughing foolishly, Yuchi Baoqi pushed Qin Huaidao's face with his hand and said, "Okay, go to the driver's seat and take a look."

At this time, the generals who had finished looking at the tanks surrounded the armored vehicle. Fortunately, Qin Huaidao was not blocked after looking at the driver's seat, and quickly followed Yuchi Baoqi to the tank's location.

Qin Huaidao sat in the tank's cab, touching the steering wheel with his hands, stepping on the brake and forward pedals, touching and looking everywhere, reluctant to leave.

"You like this so much?"

Yuchi Baoqi leaned over the opened lid and poked his head out. Qin Huaidao stroked the steering wheel in his hand and said, "There's nothing I can do. This is probably the only chance in my life to get in here. Who told me to be the admiral of the Tang Navy? Sigh."

Suddenly there were bursts of exclamations from outside: "Oh oh!"

Yuchi Jingde ran over and hooked Yuchi Baoqi's shoulders, gritting his teeth and said, "How much more equipment do you want to prepare, and you're hiding it from me!?"

Mo Qi looked at the newly manufactured 120mm vehicle-mounted mortar and fell into deep worry. The vehicle had just been tested for launch not long ago, and battlefield verification and stability verification had not yet been done. If there was any mistake, it would be extremely embarrassing.

Qin Huaidao also crawled out of the tank and looked at this thing that looked like a truck with great curiosity.

Yuchi Baoqi clapped his hands in front of the mortar vehicle and said, "Let me make it clear first. This vehicle is still in the research stage and has not yet been officially put into service. Any possible situation is normal."

"120mm vehicle-mounted mortar, one shot per second, automatic loading. Later this automatic loader will also be used to load tanks, but it still needs to pass stability testing."

"Do you know what the most powerful thing about this mortar vehicle is? You only need to input the position, height, and range of the target coordinates, press the fire button, and fire one shot at the target in one second! There will be no dust left!"

Yuchi Baoqi coughed twice: "Ahem, Mo Qi! Go and do something to open the eyes of the generals."

Mo Qi gritted his teeth and went to the co-pilot seat of the mortar vehicle. In fact, Yuchi Baoqi had already scanned it with the system and found that there was absolutely no problem with this mortar vehicle. If Yuchi Baoqi wanted to, he could even use the copy function of the system store to make a lot of them.

After Mo Qi set the target position for the mortar range, he stuck his head out of the car window and said, "Everyone, I'm ready."

Yuchi Baoqi waved his hand, but before he could do so, he was stopped by Yuchi Jingde: "Get some telescopes. What can we see here?"

After a while, the Tianwei Army soldiers from the logistics group came over again, pushing carts with a bunch of new binoculars with all kinds of new functions that they had never heard of before.
