Heaven's Change of Fate

Chapter 28 Yang Xin's Hole Card

After the welcoming ceremony, Yang Xin introduced Count Papen and his entourage into the living room, and then sat down in two distinct rows.

There is a long table in the living room, Yang Xin and Earl Papen sit side by side at the front of the table, one side is full of Earl Papen and his party, and the other side is Ma Er, Liang Kuan, Huang Feihong, Sun Wen, Lu Haodong, and Thirteenth Aunt sat at a small table behind Yang Xin, acting as the secretary of the meeting.

When the two parties were seated, Yang Xin asked straight to the point: "I don't know why Earl Papen traveled thousands of miles to the Far East, why?"

Earl Papen not only did not express his displeasure with Yang Xin's directness, but expressed his satisfaction. Soldiers should be straightforward and said directly: "Under the order of the Kaiser, I will purchase from you the right to make, use, and own military uniforms. And the ownership of the Warsong Mith, which also includes the ownership of the Deutschlandsong."

"What price are you willing to pay for business?" Yang Xin asked.

"Ten thousand Mauser 1874 rifles plus 100 million rounds of ammunition." Count Papen directly stated his base price.

Although these are not even a drop in the bucket for the country of Germany, Yang Xin felt the sincerity of the Kaiser. If the Kaiser ignored Yang Xin and directly used military uniforms and battle songs, Yang Xin would have nothing to do. However, since he came No matter what, Yang Xin has to dig out more benefits from them.

"Not enough, not enough!" Yang Xin looked at Earl Papen quietly, then took a deep breath and said, "I want a rifle production line, a bullet production line, two machine tool production lines, two internal combustion engine production lines, and a steel production line, a tractor production line, a shipyard..."

Count Papen also listened quietly to Yang Xin's words, took off his glasses and wiped them, and said slowly: "You want me to help you build a mature industrial system from scratch. I am just a soldier. Not God."

"Yes, but not only the industrial system, but also the army, navy and other military systems, political systems, economic systems, etc., I am ready to review all of Germany. At the same time, I also hope that you can send instructors to help us train the army." Yang Xinyun Danfeng said softly.

Yang Xin's calm words made Earl Papen stand up with a "huo~", and Earl Papen stared at Yang Xin closely, and said word by word: "What you said is true?"

After the unification of Prussia, it was determined to compete with Britain for the world, and also determined to open up the Far East market, but the Far East was the sphere of influence of the British, and no other country was allowed to get involved. Germany worked hard for a long time, but there was no chance at all.

Now, the opportunity has appeared.From the perspective of Germans, it is not difficult to judge from Yang Xin's words and deeds that Yang Xin is not only pro-German, but also worships Germany extremely. Otherwise, he would not comprehensively review Germany from all aspects.

"It seems good to support such a Qing people who admire Germany and Italy so much, and help us open up the Far East market." Earl Papen made a decision in his heart in an instant.

"You are just a small sixth-grade military attache, and you are not worthy of such a large investment." Count Papen shook his head and said.

"A sixth-rank military officer is just my status, and it can't reflect my value at all. My value lies here." After Yang Xin finished speaking, he handed Earl Papen a few pieces of paper.

"What is this? A blueprint for a rifle?" Earl Papen took a look at the papers.

"This is a more advanced rifle than the Mauser 1888 committee rifle that you are about to produce. You can show it to a professional." Yang Xin said quietly, and the drawing on the paper handed to Earl Papen was during World War II. , the 98K rifle used by the Germans.

Among Earl Papen's entourage, there were indeed people who knew about rifles. After seeing Yang Xin's drawings, they all called out geniuses, and were shocked by Yang Xin's genius creativity.

Yang Xin accepted their praise without changing his face or heartbeat.

Earl Papen is not a firearms expert, but he is also a soldier. He has some knowledge of firearms, and he also understood the advanced nature of this rifle under the explanation of professionals. He couldn't help but praise: "Your Excellency is a genius! Let us make such a big investment."

Yang Xin was not in a hurry, still smiled slightly, and handed Count Papen another pile of paper.

"What kind of gun is this?" Earl Papen frowned.

At this time, the Maxim heavy machine gun has only appeared for two or three years, and countries have not paid attention to it. The MG34 general-purpose machine gun that Yang Xin took out is indeed a bit beyond the times, and it is also a bit beyond their understanding. A little confused.

So, Yang Xin clapped his hands, and immediately four guards brought in a Maxim heavy machine gun. After Yang Xin introduced the Maxim heavy machine gun to him, he said emphatically, "This is more advanced than the Maxim heavy machine gun." If the Maxim heavy machine gun is to be put into actual combat, there must be six to eight people, one main shooter, one deputy shooter, four gunmen, one for the ammunition, and one for the gun. Delivering bombs."

"As for the MG34 general-purpose machine gun, first of all, it is light in weight, with a total of 7.92 kilograms. It can be carried by one person, and the gun frame is only 98 kilograms. With the physique of the Germans, it should not be too easy to carry; secondly, this machine gun The 1mm caliber bullet is used, which is the same caliber as the 600K bullet, and can be used interchangeably; besides, the firing rate is not slower than Maxim, but faster, with a theoretical firing rate of [-] to [-] rounds per minute; the feeding method , you can play both the chain and the drum, which is extremely convenient.”

"Finally, let's talk about the cost. The cost is far more economical than that of the Maxim. The money used to build one Maxim can produce two or three MG34 general-purpose machine guns..." Yang Xin talked eloquently.

Through Yang Xin's explanation, the accompanying weapons professionals carefully looked at the design drawings and compared them with the Maxim heavy machine gun. Their eyes shone brightly, and then they excitedly explained to Count Papen the advancement of the universal machine gun.

Earl Papen drank his tea calmly after hearing this, and asked Yang Xin slowly, "Why don't you make it and use it yourself?"

"Because I can't make it, our country's industrial system does not allow such a machine gun to be made." Yang Xin said directly.The Jiangnan Manufacturing General Bureau of the Manchu Qing Dynasty might be able to make such a machine gun, but Yang Xin would only find the Jiangnan Manufacturing General Bureau to build it when his head was pumped.

"Such firearms are certainly advanced, but for us in Germany they are just the icing on the cake and cannot be used as capital for us to fully support you." Count Papen still shook his head.

Yang Xin didn't care, but took out a piece of paper on the spot, wrote a set of chemical formulas on it, and handed it to Earl Papen.

"what is this?"
