Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Chapter 535 Half-track and full-track armored vehicles

In fact, it stands to reason that Yang Bing and the others only designed arrow-shaped front armor, not the so-called IS-3 heavy tank.

It is even said that Yang Bing and the others now don't even have the concept of a so-called heavy tank. Lin Yi shouldn't be so happy.

However, one thing to know is that in the information Lin Yi gave Yang Bing and the others, there was no arrowhead-shaped front armor design.

Therefore, this arrowhead-shaped front armor was made by Yang Bing and others.

what does that mean? This means that Yang Bing and the others can break away from the information he gave them and start creating on their own.

As for Ding Yi and Dong Shaoyang, in fact, until now, they are still relying on the information provided by Lin Yi for research and development.

Only Yang Bing broke away from the data and conducted independent research and development.

A small arrow-shaped armor is not worthy of Lin Yi's happiness.

But what if this arrowhead-shaped crop field means that Daxia has officially entered the stage of independent research and development?

Lin Yi felt that he still needed to celebrate more or less.

If a country or a nation wants to make progress, it cannot just copy books all the time. It must know how to create.

Lin Yi had been worried that if he gave the institute too much information, it would make the institute dependent and only copy books but not innovate.

From now on, it seems that Lin Yi can rest assured.

Lin Yi looked at the Type A IV tank in his hand, and the smile on his face never broke.

Yang Bing next to the words was a little confused. Is Lin Yi happy? Still angry and laughing.

From Yang Bing's point of view, he was holding a model that was still in the experimental stage and didn't even have a turret to fool Lin Yi. Lin Yi must be very angry.

But now it seems that Lin Yi is not as angry as he thought.

Just when Yang Bing was still thinking wildly in his heart, Lin Yi still spoke.

"Manager Yang, if there is anything else besides the chariot, please continue talking."

After hearing Lin Yi's words, Yang Bing recovered his thoughts and continued: "In addition to tanks, our weapons research institute has also designed two armored vehicles."

"A half-track armored vehicle and a full-track armored vehicle."

"Both armored vehicles have begun testing. In cross-country tests in the field, the half-track armor's cross-country performance is slightly worse, but it can also cope with various complex terrains."

"But when tested on the road, the half-track armored vehicle can run at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour. It is a pretty good armored vehicle." Yang Bing thought for a while and then said to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi looked at the two armored vehicles on the drawing and felt very satisfied.

The armored vehicles currently used by the empire were purchased directly from the system by Lin Yi, and this type of armored vehicle did not meet Lin Yi's vision for an armored vehicle.

The armored vehicle currently used by the empire is the Ehart EV/4 armored vehicle. In Lin Yi's opinion, this armored vehicle is just an ordinary car with armor installed and an additional machine gun turret.

The body is too high for concealment on the battlefield. At the same time, because it is a wheeled armored vehicle, its off-road performance is very poor.

The armored vehicles Lin Yi saw now adopted a track design.

This design not only reduces the height of the vehicle, but also improves its off-road performance and enhances its survival environment on the battlefield.

At the same time, his speed is not slow, and he can already reach a top speed of 80 kilometers per hour.

In addition to these, the front and sides of the half-track armored vehicle are carefully designed.

Looking from the front of the armored vehicle, the front of the armored vehicle has a large amount of sloped armor, which can provide additional protection to the armored vehicle.

The front of the car body looks like a hexagonal diamond, with large areas of sloping armor on both sides. This kind of armored vehicle has an extra layer of protection.

It's just that this half-track armored vehicle looks similar to the mustache armored vehicles of later generations, both of which are open-top.

Therefore, this kind of armored vehicle is almost useless for air defense.

As for the other full-track armor, it does have a roof. But the body of this armored vehicle is very low.

The height of the car is only about 1.8 meters. A normal person would have to bend down to get in.

Lin Yi looked at the three-dimensional view and found that this armored vehicle looked a bit like the later JPZ series tank destroyers.

Overall, Lin Yi was very satisfied with these two armored vehicles.

Because the emergence of these two armored vehicles not only filled the gap in the empire's armored vehicles, but another point was that Lin Yi saw a trace of a tank destroyer from the full-tracked vehicle.

If research and development continues, the armored division he has in mind can be formed.

The armored division that Lin Yi was thinking of had tanks, armored vehicles, and tank destroyers.

During the march, soldiers sat in armored vehicles or trucks.

Once a battle begins, armored vehicles carrying soldiers follow the tanks into attack.

Almost approaching the enemy position, the soldiers came out of the armored vehicles for coordinated operations.

Instead of like now, the soldiers have to charge with the chariot from a long distance away. After all, trucks have no protection.

Running with the chariot for a long distance like this consumes the soldiers' physical strength very much.

Now that there are armored vehicles, it's different. Soldiers can ride in armored vehicles, follow the tank to a place very close to the enemy, and get off the vehicle to fight.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi nodded to Yang Bing.

Yang Bing was instructed to complete the testing of armored vehicles, Type A III and Type A IV tanks as soon as possible after returning.

When the test is completed, he will go to the scene to watch.

After everything is done, the factory can be arranged for production.

Yang Bing nodded repeatedly when he heard Lin Yi's words.

Later, Yang Bing introduced Lin Yi to several new guns they had developed.

Lin Yi didn't have much interest in new guns. The main reason was that the firearms owned by the imperial soldiers were very good and there was no need to change their equipment on a large scale.

Although these new guns are better than those used by soldiers today, the excellence is limited, and the gap is not so big that it requires a comprehensive update of soldiers' guns.

Therefore, Lin Yi just asked Yang Bing to produce some and then give them to some soldiers to continue collecting opinions.

Yang Bing agreed with Lin Yi's request because he thought so too.

So when he heard Lin Yi's request, he just thought about it and agreed.

Apart from these things, there was nothing else Lin Yi wanted to see. And this meeting lasted for a full day.

Therefore, Lin Yi asked Fang Zhong to arrange food and accommodation so that these people could relax in the capital before returning to their posts.

Both Dong Shaoyang and Ding Yi were very happy with Lin Yi's request.

Especially Ding Yi, he has been in the Northwest since he took over the Silver Eagle Army.

In this era, what is the situation in Daxia Ding? To say it is sparsely populated is putting it mildly.

Now that he finally returned to the capital, of course he wanted to stay for two days.

And just when Lin Yi asked Fang Zhong to make arrangements, he suddenly saw something abnormal in Yang Bing's expression.

Lin Yi guessed that Yang Bing might have something to find him alone, so Lin Yi asked Fang Zhong to take the others away first, leaving Yang Bing alone.
