In the future, it can be produced and loaded on trains to be transported to coastal fortresses as shore defense guns, with an ultra-long range of 140 kilometers, which is enough to make the world's artillery warships fearful, and the only nemesis is only from the air.

Well, it was so happily decided.

Xue Lin rubbed his hands again and started the second lottery.

[Congratulations to Your Excellency Commander for winning the production unit: 150mm K18 plus howitzer]

Finally a large-caliber heavy artillery has been calculated!

If he didn't come out again, Xue Lin was ready to pull those 150 guns and 210 guns from the Fengtian Arsenal to the battlefield in Liaodong.

150 mm K18 plus howitzer

Caliber: 150 mm

Total weight: 18 tons

Overall length: 8.200 mm

Barrel length: 8.195 mm

Maximum range: 24.500 meters

Muzzle velocity: 865 m/s

Xue Lin's Zhenbei Army is currently mainly equipped with 105 mm K18 plus howitzers, although the maximum range is 19 kilometers away, but the power is still a little smaller, and the 150 heavy guns in the Fengtian Arsenal are bulky, not to mention, the range is not as far as the 105 mm K18 plus howitzers, and even the 210 mm heavy guns can only have a range of 18 kilometers.

Therefore, the 150 mm K18 plus howitzer with a range of up to 24 miles appeared too timely, and the next battle of the Liaodong Peninsula, conquering Pulandian, Dalian, Lushun, etc., large-caliber heavy artillery can better suppress the Japanese army, hurry up 460 to produce a batch and send it to the front line!

There is one last chance to draw the lottery, and the next lottery will have to wait until February 7th, Xue Lin estimates that he should already be standing at the Kwantung Army Headquarters in Lushun by then.

Hurry up and pump!

[Congratulations to Your Excellency Commander for winning the production unit: B-17 "Flying Fortress"]

B-17 Flying Fortress

Crew: 10 people

Length: 22.66 meters

Wingspan: 31.62 metres

Height: 5.82 meters

Bomb load: 5.8 tons

Maximum flight speed: 462 km/h

Maximum range: 3.219 km

"O Flying Fortress...... I actually got this thing. Unconsciously, the water in Xue Lin's footbasin was already cold, but he still didn't notice it, but looked at the data of the Aerial Fortress and couldn't help but sigh.

Compared to the Roaring Death Stuka, the B-17 has a bomb load of up to 5.8 tons, which is ideal for large-scale bombing of cities and coastal defenses.

In comparison, the Roaring Reaper Ju-87 only has a bomb load of 1.8 tons, but it is the best dive bomber in the early stage of World War II, and it is very practical for battlefield support.

Both have their pros, with the B-17 being suitable for large-scale planning of buildings and towns, (chdf) and the Stuka being suitable for battlefield support bombing.

Xue Lin couldn't wait to arrange the production of fifty planes and organize a group of B-17 bombers.

"Whew, your luck is good. "At least the design drawings of warships and the like are some very practical things, which make Xue Lin quite happy.

After the excitement, Xue Lin found that the foot soaking water was already cold, so he quickly picked up his feet, wiped them clean, and asked the guard Lei Wu to help pour the water, while he took off his clothes and prepared to sleep.

Turning off the lights and lying on the bed, Xue Lin thought that the B-17 bomber group would be dispatched to the temporary airport in Gaizhou as soon as it was formed, preparing to deal with the naval fleet that the Japanese might deploy.

Thinking about it, Xue Lin became more and more sleepy, and gradually fell into a deep sleep.

At the same time, the headquarters of the Kwantung Army in Lushun was brightly lit, and everyone could not sleep.

In just two days, the Zhenbei Army moved south from Changchun, blitzed the 19th Division at an unimaginable speed, regained Mukden, and then quickly moved south to catch the 8th and 20th Divisions by surprise.

Now in addition to the 10th Division trapped in Jinzhou, only a wing of Kwantung Prefecture and 20,000 temporarily formed garrisons are left, although most of them are retired soldiers, ronin, and samurai, but they all know that after the soldiers retire, it is more difficult for them to pick up guns again and ignite their will to fight than it is for a recruit to pick up a gun!

And now the consulates of various countries in Mukden have begun to disclose to the outside world the news that Mukden was recaptured by the Zhenbei Army, and the Lushun General Headquarters can't cover it up, and the base camp has repeatedly reprimanded Mukden to ask how Mukden is doing, and how is the war in the northeast?

The base camp also contacted other divisions, but of the five divisions of the Kwantung Army that had been dispatched, only one of the 10th Divisions was trapped in Jinzhou......

The Emperor is shaken, and the patience of the base camp is almost at the limit!

Although the electric lights were on in the conference room, there was a gloomy atmosphere, and the staff officers of the Kwantung Army Headquarters, as well as the head of intelligence, had been working here for two hours, and they were waiting for someone, or rather, waiting for his decision.

Shout!

The conference room was opened, and a pale Honjo Shigeru slowly came in with the support of the soldiers.

Everyone immediately stood up and bowed.

Honjo Shigeru slowly walked to the commander's seat, asked the soldiers to go down, and said, "Sit down." "

Hmmm-

Everyone sat down.

"Ahem!" Honjo couldn't help but cough twice, he was already terminally ill and couldn't support it for long.

He gradually recalled last year's heroic life, starting from the 918 incident, commanding the second division to drive the 200,000 Northeast Army out of Manchuria, laying a large territory for the empire, thinking that he would go to the peak of his military career, but he didn't expect to suddenly pop out of the Zhenbei Army, which disrupted everything.

Changchun was lost, the second division was shattered, Fengtian was defeated, the 19th division perished, the eighth division was defeated, the 20th division fled, and the 10th division was trapped in Jinzhou City.

In less than a month, the once good situation has become this shattered state.

He tried to hide the specific situation of the war in the northeast from the base camp and tried to turn the tide, but the enemy was too terrible! In just two days! More than 70,000 elite soldiers of the three divisions and regiments were all gone!

It's all gone!

Before he could react, he didn't even have a chance to turn the tables! When he reacted, the only cards in his hand were Kanto Prefecture and the 10th Division!

In two days, the Zhenbei Army had already conquered Gaizhou and was approaching Wafangdian in Kanto Prefecture, while the elite troops in Kwantung Prefecture were only less than 4,000 people in the 63rd Infantry Wing, and the more than 20,000 garrison troops urgently conscripted were only at the reserve level.

The loss of Lushun and the defeat of the Kwantung Army seem to have been seen.

Honjo is not reconciled!

I am not willing to let the good situation I have laid down be all in vain within a month!

"Chief of Staff Miyake!" Honjo looked at the first person sitting below.

Miyake Koji immediately got up: "Your Excellency Commander!!"

Honjo pursed his lips and said slowly: "Order someone to electrify the base camp, ask for support." "

Brush –

Everyone looked at Honjo Shigeru, and although they were unwilling in their eyes, they were more helpless and angry towards the enemy.

Honjo Shigeru did not even use the Japanese army's usual 'request for tactical guidance', but directly requested support, which shows that he had put down his dignity and only wanted to get the support of the base camp and reopen the situation in Manchuria.

Miyake Mitsuji looked at Honjo Shigeru with a shocked face, and everyone in the conference room knew that the Kwantung Army had concealed the war report, and someone had to take responsibility, bear the anger of the base camp, and bear the anger of the people.

To put it simply, it is necessary to have a man with enough weight to carry the blame for the entire Kwantung Army.

As the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, Honjo Shigeru is undoubtedly one of the best choices because of his weight and identity.
