Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Story of the Chaebol
Chapter 99 1 Everything for Dragon Country
Things in the Northeast have reached this point, and there is not much Sun Tong can do to help.
Before this, Xihua had thought about using the media to get the major powers to put pressure on the Japanese devils, especially since these media outlets had successively exposed the Japanese devils' various atrocious actions in the Northeast, which allowed people from various countries to witness the Japanese devils' brutality for the first time.
It’s a pity that the power of the media is indeed limited. How could countries possibly intervene in a war of this scale just because of a few random words in the newspaper?
"Let's leave the Northeast affairs at that for now. We have been working hard for you, Lao Lin. As for the remaining supplies, Lao Lin, please have them delivered to the Shaanxi-Northern Government as soon as possible. I think with these things, their lives will definitely be much better in the future."
"Okay, sir. I will arrange for someone to deliver the supplies as soon as possible. But are we really going to give up our military factory in the northwest this time?"
The military factory mentioned by Lin Youcheng is the only military factory of the Sun Group in Long Country. The scale of this military factory is not large, and it can only produce weapons such as firearms, artillery shells and grenades.
Since the reorganization of Huayou Company's arsenal, this arsenal named SUN has become one of the most famous arsenals in the world.
As a comprehensive arsenal, the firearms and artillery produced by SUN are very famous all over the world.
At present, SUN has become the designated arms supplier for nearly 30 countries in the world. These include not only the countries led by Sun Tong, but also the Nordic countries and well-known countries such as Priligy, Bolan, Maple Leaf Country, and Dragon Country.
Among them, Longguo purchased the most weapons from SUN Company, and even the southern government had previously purchased several gun production lines from SUN Company.
To date, the number of SUN-A16 semi-automatic rifles equipped by various local forces in Longguo has exceeded two million, and the number of A-20 fully automatic rifles has exceeded . Judging from the firepower of close combat alone, the army of Longguo is actually not very afraid of the Japanese.
The only thing that made Sun Tong feel regretful was that even though the central government and local warlords of Longguo all knew the role of artillery in war, in order to protect their own wealth, they were still unwilling to equip a large number of various types of artillery produced by SUN.
The most commonly equipped weapons in the Chinese army today are the SUN-P15 60mm mortar and the P15 millimeter mortar. There are about of these two types of mortars in the country of Long. This number is not small either, but the range of the mortar is limited after all, so the greatest use of this artillery is in close combat.
Because people in Longguo don't like to buy large-caliber howitzers, in order to cater to Longguo's arms market, the researchers of SUN Company developed the SUN-H25 75mm caliber howitzer specifically for Longguo.
The design of this artillery was inspired by the U.S. M116 75mm pack howitzer.
The original version of the M116 weighs 653 kilograms, has a maximum range of 9000 meters, and an effective range of 7500 meters. What Sun Tong values most is that this gun is easy to disassemble, which is definitely the most suitable artillery for Longguo, where the traffic conditions are not good.
Since Sun Tong came up with the design drawings of this artillery in 22, experts from the Xihua Equipment Research Institute have begun to continuously improve this artillery.
The improved H25 artillery has not only reduced its weight from the original 653 kg to 580 kg, but also because it uses more advanced propellant, the effective range of this artillery has also increased from the original 7.5 kilometers to the current 10 kilometers.
With the weight reduced and the power and range greatly increased, SUN company offered a price of only 1.5 US dollars for this artillery. This price is absolutely a bargain no matter where you put it in the world.
However, even though SUN offered such a price, Longguo still only imported 25 pieces of this type of artillery. Logically speaking, this number should not be small. For example, Finland only purchased H howitzers from SUN.
But the problem is that there are only a few people in the Finnish army. The reason why they bought so little is because they bought too much and no one could use them all.
On the other hand, in Long Kingdom, the central army and a small number of local armies have a total of four to five million people. Eight hundred or so artillery pieces are divided equally among so many troops. On average, a division-level unit can only get three artillery pieces at most. What else can Sun Tong say?
You should know that in Xihua, this H25 artillery has been equipped to battalion-level units.
However, the howitzers could not be sold, but the other two weapons from Xihua were very popular in Longguo. These were the two grenade launchers launched by SUN in 20 years and 28 years respectively.
The prototype of the Type 20 40mm grenade launcher is the Type 40 grenade launcher used by the Japanese. However, after improvements by Xihua, the caliber of this grenade launcher was reduced to MM. However, because this grenade launcher has a longer range and greater lethality, it has become the best squad support firepower in the minds of many military commanders as soon as it came out.
As for the Type 30 grenade launcher at the back, the prototype of this weapon is the beautiful M79 grenade launcher. Although the range of this weapon is not as good as the Type 20, it is light in weight, easy to carry and has high shooting accuracy. Therefore, this weapon can be used in combination with the Type 20 at the front.
At present, these two weapons have been exported to more than 40 countries around the world, with a total sales volume of more than units. Among them, the country that purchased the largest number of these two weapons is Long Country.
If we make a simple comparison between the Dragon Kingdom's army and the Japanese army in this life, it is not difficult to find that the Dragon Kingdom's army has far surpassed the Japanese army in terms of close-range firepower, and this advantage of the Dragon Kingdom is constantly expanding.
The only thing that makes people feel sorry is that Longguo has not made much progress in long-range support firepower. It is like a person walking on one leg. Although he can move, walking is not only laborious but also slow.
Sun Tong has reminded Mr. Jiang about this situation more than once, but unfortunately, Mr. Jiang simply doesn't listen to what Sun Tong says.
In his opinion, the troops under his command were enough to deal with the Shaanxi-Gansu government. As for the Japanese, he didn't think that the Japanese, who had just taken over the Northeast, would launch an invasion war against other areas of Longguo so soon. Besides, the millions of troops under his command were not made of mud. If the Japanese really took action, he wouldn't mind testing them to see how strong they were.
