Chapter 121: Germany and France Are Inseparable and the Combination of Chinese and Western Cultures

Just two days after the headquarters issued the paper document of the "Battle Operation Order", the decision of the previous stage "Logistics of Elite Forces" was finally unlocked.

This means that the support equipment most needed by the Eighth Route Army can be produced through the military factories of the system.

The original five military factories in the system were allocated by Huang He to rifles, light machine guns and bullets. The output of nearly two months not only met the equipment needs of the twelve main regiments, but also had some surplus production capacity to be distributed to some basic regiments.

After obtaining the production authority, Huang He immediately used these factories to produce support equipment. The war is imminent, and the more these equipment the soldiers have, the higher the probability of survival.

After a day, the first batch of support equipment has been freshly produced. Huang He quickly put down his current work and hurried back to his room to check the new things.

The first thing that appeared in front of him was the engineer shovel, but the first one was a bit unexpected.

Because at this stage, Sandezi has already made a second-generation military product that can be folded once. So he thought that the product given by the system must be the most advanced product of the current era.

Unexpectedly, this shovel is a non-foldable model of the first generation, and its appearance looks very similar to that produced by the 6411 factory in the previous life.

The wooden handle is made of hard miscellaneous wood. It looks simple, but it is not a straight piece of wood. Instead, it has a special waist-shaped design, which is ergonomic and comfortable to hold.

It is thin in the middle and thick at both ends, making it easier to hold and easier to exert force.

The width of the shovel surface is 17.5 cm, the length of the shovel head is 23 cm, and the thickness is 1.5 mm. It was also polished and painted before leaving the factory, which can effectively prevent rust and corrosion.

This newly taken shovel is not sharpened. If you want to make the shovel tip sharp, you need to grind it manually. The right side of the shovel surface is designed to be serrated, and the system also considerately provides a protective cover.

In fact, when this kind of thing is used for frontal melee, there is no difference between sharpening and not sharpening. They are all severely damaged in one go, which is nothing more than the difference between being hacked to death and being swung to death.

The shovel surface and the handle are fixed by two pure steel rivets, which makes the entire shovel body safe and stable, and it will not loosen or turn around no matter how it is used.

The method of carrying is also very simple. Although it cannot be folded, there are two specially designed small holes on the shovel surface. After passing a rope through, it can be hung on the bullet belt.

Next is the telescope. The system provides two versions. One is 6×50 and the other is 7×50. The overall is a copy of Sandezi's Zeiss telescope.

Although the blood source is the same, the quality of the products provided by the system is much better than the Japanese 13-year 6x telescope and 98-type 7x telescope.

"The whole set of French weapons is gone. The country surrendered too quickly and many things don't even have data."

Next is the battlefield medical kit, which can be called the guardian of life.

When Huang He took out this thing, he suddenly felt a little dazed, as if he heard the voice of an old friend. He shook his head and concentrated on checking.

This medical kit not only contains common bandages, tourniquets, sulfa powder, but also a simple injection of morphine and disinfectant tablets for drinking water.

In order to facilitate battlefield first aid, the system also prepared blades and paper clips for auxiliary bandaging.

In addition, there are domestic specialty medicines, including Huoxiang Zhengqi Pills for relieving heatstroke, berberine for diarrhea, two bottles of snake tablets for relieving snake and insect bites, and cooling oil for preventing mosquito bites.

"It's a little ahead of its time, but not too much."

The next thing to take out was the radio.

Huang He originally thought it would be high-power, and he was very happy at the time, after all, this could solve the problem of insufficient radio stations in the Eighth Route Army.

But unexpectedly, it was portable, and the size of the entire unit was no more than 18x13x8 cm. This tactical short-range communication equipment used within two kilometers is powered by a hand-cranked generator.

Although it is a little different from what I imagined, it is generally a good thing. After all, the current Eighth Route Army is still mainly composed of regiment-level combat units.

The bicycle is too classic, and this car is very famous even in later generations. That is the Fei Ge brand 28-inch big bar, one of the four major items for newlyweds.

28 refers to the 28-inch wheels of the bicycle. The big bar refers to the thick black crossbar in the middle of the car, which can be used for sitting and carrying goods. A skilled old driver can transform into a Ganges Superman, and the carrying capacity is absolutely beyond imagination.

The highlight is here. Huanghe extracted a helmet from the military factory of the system like opening a blind box.

The reason why it is called a blind box is that the steel helmet of the country is really too distinctive. After all, the iron cockscomb of the Gallic rooster is not called casually.

For example, the M1915 Adrian helmet is the first standard helmet of the French army and the ancestor of modern military helmets. The Yunnan Army has also equipped it in large quantities.

But its shape is really hard to describe, and people with different aesthetics have different views. There is a bulge like a cockscomb on the top of this steel helmet, which is probably the romance of the Zhengbai Banner.

However, this cockscomb is not completely useless. First of all, of course, it is for beauty. The designer of the Gallic rooster thought that the bald helmet was too ugly, so he added a common decoration such as a ridge.

Secondly, in order to improve the structural strength, adding a ridge at the top of the head is conducive to improving strength and reducing collision deformation.

The final function is ventilation. If you turn the Adrian helmet over, you will find that its lining is very thick. Considering the experience of the frontline soldiers, the designer added a row of ventilation holes on both sides of the spine to facilitate heat dissipation from the top.

But when Huang He saw the appearance of the steel helmet, he breathed a sigh of relief and put his heart back into his stomach. Because this is a 1935 style, it is also one of the few steel helmets that have made many changes.

In that year, the Chinese finally cancelled the big cockscomb that had been used for 20 years, and moved the original ventilation holes on both sides of the spine to the top of the helmet.

The original thin leather strip at the chin was also upgraded to a full-cover chin strap and connected to the lining. The previous lining was easy to fall out when it encountered a collision, but now this problem has been overcome with one change.

The anti-collision layer in front of the forehead has also been thickened a lot, unlike the previous thin leather that fooled the foot men.

The considerate system also added a camouflage net to the steel helmet, and even replaced the RF badge that originally belonged to the Gallic chicken with a five-pointed star.

Huang He was very satisfied with this helmet. He put the helmet on his head and continued to check the next support equipment, the gas mask!

It is well known that in the First World War, the two countries that used poison gas the most were Germany II and Gaul. Everyone knows their results. One turned itself into Weimar, and the other collapsed a generation of young people.

The gas masks of Gaul were always a bit backward. More than 10 million were produced during the whole war, but the only good ones were TNH and LTN.

The GM series of Germany II was relatively better, but the degree of goodness was very limited.

But in this war, the performance of the two countries on gas masks was completely different.

Although poison gas was hardly used on the European battlefield during World War II. But Germany II's loss was remembered by Germany III. The mustache ordered all soldiers to carry gas mask canisters.

As for Gaul? This time it was their turn to be collapsed, and the Third Republic directly became Vichy and Liberty.

And they surrendered too early, and there was not even any record of gas masks. According to their nature, it is very likely that they are still using the old stuff from World War I.

Taking this into consideration, the system very humanely selected Sandezi's M1938 gas mask canister.

The surface of this steel container has grooves, and the lid is connected by hinges.

The inside has a soft lining and partition that is waterproof and gas-proof, which can not only absorb, but also more effectively protect the gas mask from being contaminated by other gases.

There are also many cleaning tools and protection tools for gas masks in the canister, which can definitely be used for a long time if used properly.

In addition to the gas mask, the canister also contains a small brown box, which contains ten tablets for cleaning the skin blisters caused by gas contamination.

After taking out all the support equipment, Huang He put on these weapons one by one, and then walked to a mirror.

Looking at the figure in the mirror sitting astride a bicycle, with a telescope hanging around his neck, a sapper in his hand, an Adrian helmet on his head, a first aid kit on his waist, and a gas mask canister hanging above his hips.

This image even made Huang He, who doesn't like to laugh very much on weekdays, laugh helplessly.

It is true that European countries are one family, and everyone is equal. The support equipment of the Gallic Rooster and Sandezi, plus the medical kit that combines Chinese and Western elements, is amazing to anyone who sees it.

Just as our protagonist was staring at the mirror in a daze, a burst of oriole-like laughter suddenly came from outside the door.

Here it comes, I should have posted it in the early morning, but I got stuck in a dead end. I checked a lot of information but couldn't find some things about France, speechless
