Chapter 706 Ye Tian Wants to Fire
In fact, Ye Tian successfully whetted Hitler's appetite with his special operations theory alone.
Although Hitler had serious racist tendencies, it is undeniable that he was a genius in managing the country.
Since 1923, there has been an economic crisis sweeping the world. All major countries in the world are in a severe recession.
After Hitler became the first man in Germany in 1933, he faced huge reparations after World War I and carried out various drastic reforms.
The effect was remarkable, and Germany's economy recovered rapidly.
At the same time, under Hitler's strict orders, Germany quickly formed the most powerful armed force in Europe.
By 1939, when Hitler launched World War II, he had only been in power for six years.
There is no doubt that Hitler was very competent in running the country.
In fact, when it comes to managing the army, Hitler can be called a genius among geniuses.
Hitler was very excited when he heard Ye Tian's special operations theories.
When he heard that France could be conquered by crossing the Maginot Line, Hitler was simply ecstatic.
People respect me one foot, and I respect others one foot.
This sentence has always been Hitler's guide to life.
In addition, I am afraid that Ye Tian may be vague in terms of armored forces, blitzkrieg, etc. Hitler is very unwilling to let this happen.
In fact, Hitler repeatedly tried his best to invite Ye Tian to visit, and he was well aware of the conditions attached to Ye Tian's coming.
Therefore, Hitler planned to express his thoughts before Ye Tian explained this.
Looking at the generals around him one by one, he found that after Ye Tian's explanation, they all had expressions of enlightenment on their faces, and Hitler confirmed this idea.
"Ye, I won't say any more. You, China, are currently engaged in a national war with the island country. Can we, Germany, help you in any way?"
Hearing this, Ye Tian was very pleased.
At this time, Ye Tian was not polite.
Besides, Germans are serious about their work.
If you really play subtle tricks on them, they will definitely be unhappy.
In addition, Ye Tian also knew that as long as the Germans agreed to something, they would definitely do their best to complete it.
So, looking at Hitler, Ye Tian immediately entered the role.
"My head of state, you know that our national strength in China is weak now and we seriously lack heavy artillery."
"Also, in terms of medium-sized artillery, we in China are also lacking."
Ye Tian said this with deep intentions.
Compared with guns, cannons are more expensive and more lethal.
In fact, because of his close exchanges with China, Hitler knew the situation in China very well.
Especially in terms of artillery, there is nothing wrong with saying that there is no comparison between China and the island countries.
Among the Chinese troops, although there are many artillery calibers, the total number is pitifully small, only about 800 in total.
What made Hitler dumbfounded was that these more than 800 artillery pieces had more than 40 calibers.
There are many types of calibers, which will inevitably require extremely high logistics supplies.
On the battlefield, once there are no more shells, these cannons have to be passively shut down.
That's not all. The point is that although many Chinese artillery are large in caliber, they are not powerful.
These large-caliber artillery are all grandfather-level.
Loading shells is so slow that it takes almost half an hour to fire a shell.
The most important thing is that because they are too far behind, they can't hit far at all.
It is said that the Chinese artillery does not pose a great threat to the artillery of the island countries and there is nothing wrong with it.
Hitler believed that in the upcoming Battle of Songhu, these Chinese artillery would not have much chance to perform.
In other words, under the bombardment of the island country's advanced artillery, most of the Chinese artillery will be destroyed.
As soon as Ye Tian finished speaking, Hitler looked at Guderian.
The reason is simple. At this time, Guderian was very anxious because he was eager to understand theories such as armored forces and blitzkrieg.
"My head of state, I think China is too poor to afford these weapons. We can support them for free!"
Looking timidly at Hitler and then at his colleagues, Guderian continued to explain.
"I think this number can be as high as possible!"
Hearing this, Ye Tian was ecstatic.
Also, cannons are too expensive, and China is seriously short of money.
If Germany offers a wave of free support and the number is large, it would be a great blessing.
In this way, by pretending to be cool, that is, giving them the theory from a few years later, I finally did not waste my emotions.
Under Ye Tian's gaze, Hitler whispered to a subordinate for a while.
Then, the entourage left quickly.
Looking at Ye Tian with a smile, Hitler smiled and said: "Ye, I'll have someone contact the arsenal..."
After pondering for a moment, Hitler said again: "My friend, can you tell me what artillery China needs most?"
In an instant, three cannons appeared in Ye Tian's mind:
Krupp 75mm mountain gun;
Krupp 105mm howitzer;
Rhine 150 mm caliber heavy howitzer.
These three cannons are all new German artillery and are very easy to use.
Although the first type of cannon is heavier than the Japanese mountain cannon of the same caliber, it is enough to enable Chinese troops with poor mechanization levels to move and fight. The range is longer, and its power is definitely no worse than that of the Japanese.
Regarding the latter two cannons, Ye Tian had complicated feelings.
China is weak and has no money to buy too many.
Although they are all powerful, China can only try to concentrate them because they cannot be equipped in large quantities.
In fact, even if they are concentrated, China has only formed two mechanized artillery regiments because of the small number.
The most important thing is that they are very eye-catching because of their great power and pitiful small number.
In other words, once they are discovered by the devils, they will face the carpet bombing of the devils' field heavy artillery units and even the air force.
Although the Chinese troops have used them very carefully, these cannons were completely destroyed by the devils in the first few years of the war of resistance.
Therefore, when using them, the position selection and the timing of firing must be very cautious, and air defense and other support are also indispensable.
In fact, when talking to Hitler about these three cannons, Ye Tian's mind was racing, and he thought of two good ideas.
What Ye Tian didn't know was that before he finished speaking, these generals, even Hitler himself, were all stunned.
Unexpectedly, they all thought of a Chinese who had passed away.
This Chinese was not only a household name in China, but in fact, he was also well-known in the world.
His name was Sun Zongshan. When he led his subordinates to establish the new China, he sought support from all over the world.
Sun Zongshan was famous for his high demand for support, and was known as Sun Dapao.
