Ancock Industries took an order from the Federal Army, but compared to Lynch's Blackstone Aviation's orders of hundreds of millions and billions, it seemed a bit thin.

It’s not that the design and functions of these tanks are not good, but after all, they are models that have not proven their value on the battlefield, and the Ministry of National Defense will not purchase them on a large scale.

Although the military budget has been unlimited since last year, it is still responsible for taxpayers' money.

If they spend money randomly and unplannedly, Congress may restrict their military budget.

This kind of thing... is not impossible to happen. In order to obtain more power and promises, those in Congress even wanted to force Mr. Trueman to bow before he came to power!

Their conspiracy failed in the end. Mr. Trueman seemed to be generous and had no pursuit, but in fact he was not that broad-minded.

He is waiting for the time when he can fully control the federal power!

Therefore, even the Ministry of National Defense does not come to matters such as budget and military procurement casually. Otherwise, the gentlemen in Congress may want to find a sense of presence in the military.

As we all know, in addition to the tax bureau being difficult to deal with, taxpayers are also difficult to deal with, especially when they suspect that you have wasted the tax time they paid.

With taxes so high now, this is also a very sensitive area.

Therefore, judging from the current situation, there is a high probability that Ankok Industrial's tanks will not appear directly on the main battlefield.

Recently, Mr. Wardrick has been lobbying those in the Ministry of National Defense that some of the combat vehicles they purchase will be used on the northern border, which is a good thing.

Now there is good news from Lynch, which makes Mr. Wardrick breathe a deep sigh of relief.

In the Commonwealth, the respect that poor people have for the upper class is respect for the resources and wealth at their disposal.

In upper class society, there are also classes.

There is also a relationship of respect between people of different classes. So the respect that upper-class people from the lower class have for the upper-class people mainly respects their ability to make money!

Just like the respected Mr. Lynch!

In some more formal occasions, someone would always say this to him with a smile. Do you really think Mr. Lin is respectable?

No, many people want to hang him from a street lamp and divide his property, people have to say this because he can really make money!

As long as his earning power is not diminished, people will always respect him!

As long as you can keep making money, it means you are a "capable" person!

A big smile appeared on Mr. Wardrick's face, "How much do you plan to... take?"

He also had a guess in his mind, should thirty, fifty or a hundred vehicles be needed?

The new tank adopts Lynch's design inspiration, no longer leaving an open turret, and making it into a very weird polygonal shape.

It has more horsepower, a longer wheelbase, a wider body, more ammunition, and is even equipped with two machine guns.

The cost of the entire tank is about 250,000 federal soles. This is the ex-factory price. Adding revenue needs, its selling price is about 320,000 to 350,000.

The price is not high at all, the gross profit is only about 25% to 30%, and the net profit is probably 30,000 to 40,000 yuan.

In this way, even if one hundred vehicles are sold, the net profit for the company's revenue will only be three to four million.

But in fact, this number is really not low. The current output value of mainstream small and medium-sized companies in the Federation is only around a few hundred thousand, and some factories may be a little more, one or two million.

Just one order can bring so much profit to the company, but in fact it is really not a small order.

But compared to those large orders of Lynch, it does seem a bit inconspicuous, but there is no way, the technical content between the two is completely different.

The current tank is just a gun barrel, a high-horsepower engine, and an iron shell. It has not been developed for that long, and it does not have anything high-tech.

The muzzle brake and buffer device may count as one, but you have to ask how much these things that can be seen at a glance are worth...

So the price is very reasonable at this time.

Lynch smiled and gave a figure that exceeded Mr. Wardrick's guess: two hundred cars!

"I mean a conservative estimate of two hundred vehicles. This is just the first batch of orders. Once these tanks show their strong dominance on our main battlefield, I will place another order soon."

"I will find a way to convince the Gefra people and get them to agree to spend money to solve the problem of insufficient combat power of the army. Maybe we will eventually have an order for five hundred to one thousand vehicles!"

Mr. Wardrick was grinning from ear to ear, if a thousand tanks could be sold on the main battlefield of Gefra, and it could work.

This means that the federal army will also increase its purchases. When the war is over, they may be able to sell thousands of tanks alone!

All the wealth he lost when he left the consortium can be earned back in a few years by relying on these orders, and he is firmly rooted in this field.

He deserves recognition for his original decision.

On the afternoon of the third day, Lynch led the Prime Minister and a group of Gaevra's diplomats, ministers, and military observers to the Ankerk Industrial Testing Ground.

They have signed an agreement with Lynch. It sounds a bit funny. When facing something as serious as war, a once powerful country would actually sign a contract with a private company to hire them to fight for itself.

But this is a ridiculous reality, and what some people can't explain is that the Prime Minister has already allocated part of the funds to the account designated by Lynch in accordance with Lynch's request.

In addition to the upfront costs, the money also includes funds to purchase some engineering projects that can help the Gefra people resist invasion.

Today, they gathered at Ancock Industrial's testing ground to see the new tank, the core product of Lynch's "Canned Plan"!

Lynch mentioned this plan in the contract he signed with Gefra, the "Can Plan". Its core idea is to wrap the Gefra people in strong steel.

Such a hard shell can allow them to avoid some common casualties, and at the same time, it can have strong counterattack capabilities, which is very helpful in cutting up the battlefield and creating advantageous areas.

This plan has been unanimously approved by people like the Prime Minister, who know very well what those armies are.

If they could have a safe environment, maybe they wouldn't escape so fast!

Then, they saw a steel beast that impressed them deeply and would never be forgotten in a short time!

Five tanks roared forward, no matter what the terrain was, uphill, downhill, tunnels, trenches...

It can almost be quickly overcome and crushed, followed by a test of firepower, and then the ability to withstand attacks.

This part in particular shocked the Gefra people. One grenade after another was thrown onto the tank and exploded, but it had no effect on the people on the opposite side.

Except for one tank whose turret cannot rotate, bullets, grenades and the like no longer pose a threat to it.

As a salesman, Lynch also introduced its shortcomings. For example, if its tracks are damaged, it will no longer be able to provide forward momentum for the tank.

But its tracks are easy to repair. The entire track is directly assembled from multiple modules.

When it's blown up, it only takes a few simple steps to restore power, which is actually not a disadvantage, but an advantage.

Looking at these big guys, the Gefra people are obviously very excited. They can provide strong firepower, and when combined with infantry and aircraft, especially bombers, they can completely dominate the entire battlefield!

They are not afraid of spending money. The nobles have money anyway. If they find a reason to clear out a batch, they can get enough military expenses.

As long as the product is good, they will accept it no matter how much money it costs.

At the end, the Prime Minister asked eagerly, "What's its name?"

Lynch glanced at Mr. Wardrick, who smiled and said the word "tank."

The entire product introduction meeting lasted until the evening. After sending these people away, Lynch was retained by people from the Ministry of Defense.

"These tanks..." The officer who spoke coughed twice, "We need some too."

Lynch was a little surprised. He glanced at Mr. Wardrick. The officer smiled awkwardly but politely, "We didn't have a lot of orders before, and the performance at that time was not as good as now, so..."

This is to defend the Ministry of National Defense's statement. In fact, the Ministry of National Defense did not have any intention to order too many vehicles at the beginning, and only ordered ten vehicles.

The changes of this new model compared to the previous model are actually very limited, that is, the turret becomes fully enclosed, and the wheels become tracks.

When people from the Ministry of National Defense came over to investigate, they believed that the fully enclosed turret completely lost the flexible observation angle, and they could only observe the enemy at a fixed angle.

Once someone attacks from behind or from the side, it will be difficult for the people in the tank to detect these people at the first time, which will cause losses.

Secondly, the tires were changed to tracks, which lost the ability to move quickly. Moreover, the new tank was heavier and was not suitable for the more complex ground combat rhythm.

In order not to offend Mr. Wardrick, the Ministry of Defense ordered ten vehicles.

But what they saw today was a completely different tank, and what Lynch showed them was the tactical thinking surrounding these big monsters called "tanks."

These tactics made the eyes of the officers of the Ministry of National Defense who accompanied the Gefra people shine. They were not very clear about other things. At least they understood the meaning of "not fighting alone"!

Tanks should always conduct military operations in groups, rather than one tank or two tanks dispatched alone.

With tank clusters and infantry coordination, the air force discovers and destroys threatening targets in advance...

People looked at Lynch a little differently.

This is a fucking master tactician!
