    "Dear Comrade Stalin:

    I would like to report a good news to you. The Chinese comrades have agreed to sell us a medium-sized tank they equip. You will never imagine how good this tank is. Although their weight is only 36 tons, which is only 4 tons heavier than the T34, but  Its protection is much stronger than the latter. The hull of this tank is a welded structure of rolled armored steel.  The thickness of the frontal armor is 100 mm. Because of the same inclined design, the actual protection capacity is about 150 mm, and the thickness of the side armor of the car body is 80 mm.  The turret is a cast structure, and like our t34, it is also semi-circular, and its frontal protection capacity is equivalent to a 220 mm thick homogeneous steel plate.

    In terms of power, this tank is also equipped with a water-cooled diesel engine with a rated power of 520 horsepower, a maximum road speed of 50 kilometers per hour, and a cross-country speed of 30 kilometers per hour. Although the speed is similar to that of the T34, the off-road type is much faster.  I saw with my own eyes that this tank can climb up a 60-degree slope at a normal speed, and it can also directly cross a trench nearly two meters and five meters wide, and it even ignores a one-meter-high wall.  It is no exaggeration to say that this tank seems to have been born for the complex terrain of the Eastern European plains!

    In addition to the above two points, the most surprising and most attractive to me is its powerful attack firepower.  The vehicle's tank gun is a 100mm smoothbore gun, which is different from the one we used before.  Because of the adoption of a new type of overall forging technology and high-quality steel that I have never seen before, the airtightness of this gun is very good, resulting in a very high pressure in the chamber when the gun is fired, which makes the fired shells not only fly  The farther it is, the stronger the penetration will be.  The Chinese comrades showed us its power in detail. The armor-piercing projectile fired by it can easily penetrate a 150mm thick homogeneous steel plate at a distance of 1000 meters. What is even more frightening is that the mysterious country also developed this gun  Developed a high-explosive anti-personnel shell specially designed to deal with infantry. At a distance of 500 meters, this shell can break a general box (container) more than 20 meters long and 5 meters wide into a honeycomb.

    In my opinion, this tank surpasses the Tiger tank equipped by the German army in terms of maneuverability, defensiveness, and firepower.

    Seeing this, Stalin put down the telegram that Dimitrov had written to him, and asked Beria in disbelief: "Is this true?"

    "That's right!" Beria nodded: "Colonel Davalev, who followed the delegation to Yan'an, said in a secret message to me that what Comrade Dimitrov said was the truth, and there was nothing wrong with it."  Exaggerated, and the commander of the combat armor, Davalev also found many more details. For example, the gun of this tank rotates very fast and shoots very fast. It can reach about seven rounds per minute, and its accuracy is quite high.  The height is high, and the error at a distance of one thousand meters will not exceed 3 meters, and this is the case when those Chinese rookie armored soldiers are driving.  If it is replaced by our experienced heavy armor.  Definitely will play a higher performance.

    It's just that Davalev said that whether it is the appearance, the interior structure of the car, or even the various equipment with durable leather, it makes users feel very familiar.  In his words, it seems that this car was made in our Soviet Union!  "

    "Maybe it's just a coincidence!" Stalin didn't think too much when he heard the words. Someone thought about it and said: "Since the two comrades said that this car is so good, let them sign a purchase agreement with the Chinese comrades as soon as possible. Now Mann  The Southern Army Group led by Stein is attacking Kharkov. Our soldiers cannot resist the powerful offensive of this German elite force, especially their Tiger tanks. It has cost our armored forces a huge  The cost, and I heard that a new tank with more powerful performance developed by Germany will be installed soon, and we urgently need a tank to compete with it.¡±

    Beria said cautiously: "The Chinese comrades ask for a very high price for this tank, and they also ask for gold trading. Given our current economic situation, I'm afraid"

    Hearing this, Stalin picked up the telegram on the table and looked down. When he saw the specific price, he immediately screamed: "What, I want 100 catties of gold, those Chinese comrades are too dark, right?  They don't talk about class friendship anymore!"

    Beria smiled awkwardly: "The Chinese comrades set the price very hard, there is no room for negotiation at all, and they also said that being able to sell this tank itself is for the sake of our long-term friendship!"

    Stalin pondered for a while when he heard the words, and then said with a relieved face: "The Chinese colleagues are right. It is a huge help for them to sell us such a very advanced weapon. Forget it, then follow the  They bought 100 tanks at a price, and immediately transferred 5 tons of gold from the central treasury, and sent them to Yan'an by transport plane, and asked Comrade Dimitrov to tell the Chinese comrades that I want to see all the tanks within three months!&  #039After a pause, Stalin continued: "After these tanks arrived, 95 of them were sent to the First Tank Army immediately. They are the main force of the Voronezh Front Army and need to face the elite Fourth Panzer Army of Germany.  The remaining 5 tanks were handed over to the military industry department. Didn¡¯t Davalev say that these tanks are very similar to our tanks. It should not be difficult to imitate them!

    "Okay! Comrade Stalin, I'll do it right away!" Benlia agreed and turned to leave.

    Stalin continued to pick up the unfinished telegram and read it with relish: " This visit to Yan'an shocked me greatly. The generous and selfless assistance in that mysterious country and the efforts of the Chinese comrades  Now, this desolate land has been full of vitality. Yan'an already has the rudiment of a big city, not only all houses and streets are illuminated by electric lights, but also tap water is used for every household, and some residents even use  Natural gas is used, which is a new energy source. It not only generates huge heat when burned, but is also very clean, without smoky black smoke, does not cause any pollution, and is very convenient to use.

    What is even more surprising is that Chinese comrades are still engaged in industrial construction.  A large number of disaster victims and people transferred from other bases provided them with sufficient labor force.  Under the guidance of technical experts and engineers, these people built factories and extensively opened mines on this vast land.  A thermal power plant, a hydropower plant, a steel plant, an oil refinery, a fertilizer plant, and a machinery manufacturing plant have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.  It is conceivable that in a short time, the entire Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region will become a large industrial zone'

    ?As an industrial madman, Stalin highly appreciated this approach of Chinese comrades. Industry is the foundation of everything, and it is also the foundation of national strength. Without industry, no matter how powerful it is, it is nothing but a mirror image!

    "It seems that these little brothers are already planning for the future!" Stalin smiled gratifiedly. (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
