In the European battlefield, the British mainland was also beaten miserably. The Germans dispatched submarines to attack their supply lines with wolf pack tactics. Therefore, support for India has long been cut off. Even the transportation lines and sea areas around the mainland Almost got stuck. .

Chapter 759 We only need mining rights for Indian minerals

  Because of the intervention of the Jagged Army, the British have the courage to do little Japan.

  In other words, what was forced was that there was no way out. Little Japan withdrew from China and moved to Southeast Asia, with extremely fierce momentum.

  Sweeping across the entire Southeast Asia, they suffered a series of disastrous defeats as soon as they came into contact, and now they are relieved.

  The British can no longer afford such a toss.

  "The domestic situation is unstable. With the devil Hitler in the West, we can only support the war situation with difficulty. At this moment, in the Middle East, India, and Southeast Asia, there is no way out. The battlefield in Southeast Asia must be lost. We cannot give up the rich resources of Myanmar. We must unite with India, build an overseas empire on which the sun never sets, and support the domestic battlefield!"

  Donahue O'Neill, the military governor of India, gave a passionate speech, and made an important decision to dispatch troops to defend the colony at "[-]" degrees thousands of miles away from his own country.

  Not only that, the Indian military governor even asked Churchill to send more troops to strengthen India's defenses.

  This matter has been taken seriously by Churchill. In his original words, even if it is more difficult for the mainland, we must keep the territory in Southeast Asia and the Middle East.

  So he ordered the transfer of troops from some colonies.

  They even dropped the few Vickers armored vehicles, and even got the Soma S-35 tanks from France, and they also got there.

  Although the Soma S-35 tank is not worth mentioning to Huaxia, it is already an advanced French tank. The turret and body are cast from steel with a beautiful arc. The radio walkie-talkie is standard equipment.

  The tank is manufactured by SOMUA (Soma) company. It has been mass-produced since 1936 and equipped with troops. By 1940, a total of about 500 tanks were produced, but only 243 were equipped with troops, and the rest were parked in the warehouse.

  The 3 light mechanized divisions of the French army are each equipped with 81 S-35 tanks; the 6th light cavalry division in Tunisia is also equipped with 50 such tanks; the 4th reserve armored division is also equipped with a small number of such tanks.It has better maneuverability, stronger firepower and armor protection, which is better than Germany's Panzer III 40 years ago, only with less power.However, due to the poor tactics of the French army, they only used tanks to carry out some individual combat operations, so they did not give full play to their due role.

  What's more, the current German military capabilities have been strengthened, and France will be beaten to pieces in one encounter.

  However, even so, this tank is undoubtedly a timely help for the current UK.

  Tang Qingyu was very happy with the decision made by the British, and even sent Mr. Zhou to the UK to negotiate, willing to sell the newly produced "Centuron" Mk13 main battle tank to the UK.

  Speaking of which, the "Xun Qiulun" Mk13 main battle tank was originally British, and it was only produced in 43. Tang Qingyu had already exchanged technical drawings from the system space and ordered people to develop it!

  When China was first unified, seven or eight vehicles had already been produced. Later, more than 300 vehicles were produced in a chariot factory in Ningxia.

  Even if Huaxia developed the "Centuron" Mk13 main battle tank, it is only in its original form. It has similar performance to the Tiger tank, has good armor protection, is equipped with a 1mm gun, and has good off-road performance. .

  The car body of this car is a welded structure.

  The armor thickness of each part is different. Two transverse partitions are used to divide the front and rear into three parts. The front part is divided into left and right halves. The compartment is at the rear of the hull.

  The driver sits in the cockpit on the right front of the car body. There is a double hatch that opens left and right, and each hatch has a periscope.

  The conical casting turret body is welded with a top armor plate, the total weight of the turret and the gun is 13t, and the diameter of the turret seat ring is 2300mm.The commander's command tower is on the right side of the turret top armor, and the left side is the loader's access hatch. There are armor storage boxes on both sides of the turret, and there is a refill hole on the left side. Most tanks have a storage rack behind the turret.The gunner is on the right side of the gun, the commander is behind and above the gunner, and the loader is on the left side of the gun.Early production of the MK1 tank turret has a safety port at the rear.

  车长指挥塔可以由车长手摇机构进行360旋转,其上有1个双开式舱盖、1个带弹道分划的潜望式瞄准镜和7个潜望观察镜,车长位置处可以安装1个红光探照灯. ..

  The loader hatch has a double-leaf hatch that splits front and rear and a periscope sight glass.

  It can be said that the performance of this car is not inferior to the Tiger tank at all.

  It's just that he came out late.

  Even after the end of World War II, many countries were equipping or undergoing transformation.

  For example, Australia), Austria, Denmark, India, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Somalia, Netherlands, Libya, Singapore, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom.These countries are equipped.

  ……

  River Thames.

  London, the capital of the United Kingdom, is located in the southeast of England and was founded in 43 AD.In the 18th and 19th centuries AD, London became the largest financial and trade center in the world.

  At this time, the British capital is conducting a secret negotiation.

  In a heavily guarded hotel, Churchill received Chinese Prime Minister Mr. Zhou. Facing a set of photos in Mr. Zhou's hands, as well as detailed data and introductions, his eyes lit up.

  For Churchill, the tank in front of them had comprehensive performance and was comparable to the Tiger tank, which was exactly what they needed.

  It's just that Churchill was a little puzzled. All the tanks in China have always had Chinese-style names, but this time it is the European name 1.0, Centuron Mk13.

  "Mr. Zhou, if the UK wants to get these tanks and data files, what price will I have to pay?" Faced with such good tank data, Churchill was moved.

  The European battlefield was defeated, and the Southeast Asian battlefield was also defeated. He must strengthen his military equipment to relieve the pressure of the war.

  Mr. Zhou smiled slightly, looked quietly at the legendary figure in front of him, spoke Huaiyin dialect, and said with a refined smile: "We only need the mineral mining rights in India, and we don't want anything else."

  This is the plan discussed by Mr. Zhou and Tang Qingyu.

  Now China's military strength cannot reach India for the time being, but resources cannot be wasted in vain.

  This time, it was to pry the teeth of the Indian kingdom under British rule. .

Chapter 760 Angry Roosevelt

  "Once upon a time, Huaxia was still being bullied by the great powers, but now it has started a game!"

  Looking at the telegram in his hand, Tang Qingyu couldn't help sighing and said: "It seems that I will never be able to go to the battlefield again. I want to play world chess with various countries and calculate each other."

  Now his direct spies have expanded into multiple companies, spread all over the world, and now they have all been integrated. It is still Michael's company. This company is now the world's largest multinational company, and no one knows which force they belong to.

  Because in the top management of this company, there are people from various countries, including the United States, Britain, France, Japan, and China.

  The leaders of various countries have no idea that the person in power behind this is Tang Qingyu, the newly-emerged President of China.

  "It's time to arrange."

  Tang Qingyu had already made up his mind, and made some blueprints, and threw them to the relevant military factories, and Michael's company came forward to sell them to the outside world.

  The main production is the M3 "Grant/Lee" medium tank, and the "Centuron" Mk13 tank. I won't talk about the "Centuron" Mk13 tank, but this M3 "Gran 12 Special/Lee" medium tank is a product of the United States, and it is estimated that it is still being studied, because it was produced in the United States in 41, and it is now 40 years only.

  The U.S. military was very short of usable tanks in the early days of World War II.Tanks in stock mainly include M2 ​​light tanks and M2 medium tanks.Both are slightly outdated and not suitable for actual combat use.

  The U.S. military desperately needs to develop and manufacture new tanks to enhance its military power.

  When the war broke out in the European battlefield in 1939, the Americans found that their M2 medium tanks were not enough to deal with the new situation in terms of protection or firepower.

  Thus, in July 1940 the development of a new medium tank began.

  The data refers to the M2 medium tank with mature technology, which uses some similar or identical structures and components, such as a reliable vertical scroll spring suspension system, thickened armor, and the 37mm main gun to Change to 75mm.

  However, the United States is in the process of perfecting and experimenting, but China has produced it first, with a total of 500 vehicles in a month.

  This made the usually proud/proud Americans really lose face, and was even more shocked by what channel Huaxia found their data drawings and perfected them.

  "Damn it, what is the CIA doing! Does the protection system eat shit? Our core secrets have been taken away, and you don't know yet!!"

  Luo/Sifu was trembling/shaking all over. Originally, the tank was not as advanced as others. After finally researching some results, he unexpectedly learned that Huaxia had already produced it.

  This tells him how not to be shocked, how not to get angry.

  What are these people doing!

  Can't even do a security system!

  Poor Comrade Roosevelt, I don't even know that there is a guy in this world called "System" who is omnipotent. Not to mention the data of the M3 "Grant/Lee" medium tank, even the data of the aircraft carrier is everywhere.

  Since Tang Qingyu appeared in this world, the pattern of this world has changed, and with the unification of China, the United States has lost at the starting line.

  Facing the new tanks popping up like bamboo shoots, countries holding gold ran over like cats smelling fishy.

  Five hundred "Grant/Lee" medium tanks and three hundred "Centuron" Mk13 tanks were directly divided by Italy, Britain, France, and Syria.

  However, Tang Qingyu was only responsible for sending these tanks to the fringes of German power, and these other countries figured out their own solutions.

  Because all the sea areas of Germany have begun to be blocked, and the military defense line on the land has also begun to be controlled. Unless it is a Chinese vehicle trading with Germany, nothing else is allowed to pass.

  Even the Michael International signboard doesn't work.

  After all, now that Tang Qingyu is buying weapons to make money, it is tantamount to supporting these countries in disguise, so he will not stand up and say that Michael is the company behind him, and he is the black hand behind the scenes.

  Huaxia's weapons are sold relatively cheaply, and many people have tasted the sweetness.

  For example, Italy, which has now become one of the major trading houses in China with the United Kingdom, has been tightening its belt continuously and escaped to many good things in China.

  Even the decommissioned T-34 tanks are not spared.

  Although the T-34 tank cannot be compared with the Tiger tank one-on-one, it is cheaper, the cost is not high, it can be mass-produced quickly, and its operability is simple.

  At least it is much stronger than the Renault R35 light tank.

  The Renault R35 was a French light infantry tank during World War II, manufactured by the French Renault Motor Company.The original intention of its design was that at the end of 1934, the French Army requested to develop and equip a new type of tank to coordinate infantry operations. It was designed in 1933 and officially put into production in 1936.It has relatively good armor, but is slow.It also has poor anti-tank capabilities due to the short-barreled 37mm gun.After the war broke out, in response to the lack of anti-tank capabilities, it was replaced with a more powerful long-barreled artillery from April 1940, called: Renault 4R580.

  The Renault R40 tank has always been the main equipment of France, and even exported to countries such as Poland, Romania, Turkey and Yugoslavia.

  Among them, Germany and its vassals converted some of the captured R35s into tank destroyers.

  However, as good tanks were launched one after another, French tanks were no longer on the table.

  It's just that some small countries still choose such tanks.

  After all, the price is cheap, and there are some deterrents.

  Tang Qingyu was also happy about this, and it would be nice to be able to make money.

  Of course, for these countries, what Tang Qingyu needed was mining rights.

  With the expansion of interests, minerals represent energy, and energy represents everything.

  ……

  ……

  Just when Tang Qingyu was full of ambition and made Huaxia stronger.

  In the north of China, the polar bear became impatient.

  Stalin was in the office, smoking his pipe constantly, and the room was filled with the smoky smell of tobacco.

  "Huaxia...Huaxia..."

  "Damn Tang Qingyu!"

  Constant cursing came from Stalin's mouth. .

Chapter 761 The battle in the Far East, attack Vladivostok!

  Stalin was about to go mad with anger.
