Vol 2 Chapter 2056: What the Army has, we should have it too

The current Qixiang Automobile Company seems to be living a good life, but their sales in the civilian market have been unable to increase, which has led them to rely more on orders from the military.

Seeing that the army's mechanical brigade was formed, and there were no other plans in the short term, the people of Qixiang Automobile Company did not sit still.

They sent representatives to find the Navy and the Guards.

The opening is that the army has engaged in mechanized troops, why don't you?

Just kidding, how can you not do it!

After the navy surreptitiously saw the mechanized brigade of the army, several senior generals of the marine corps directly sent the report of the establishment of the marine corps mechanized unit to the senior navy.

Looking at the top of the navy, the army has it all, and it seems to be doing it in a decent way, and then the Marine Corps just wants to create a mechanized regiment.

It's just a regiment, how much money can be spent, it is estimated that there is no expensive frigate yet.

As a result, Admiral Sun Fumin, the head of the Navy's core naval command, directly approved the plan.

But not long after he learned that the Marine Corps had purchased a lot of cars in one go, he was a little dumbfounded!

"These prodigal things are just a group. Why do they need so much equipment?"

"One hundred Type 31 detachable side three-wheeled vehicles, three hundred two-wheeled vehicles, fifty Central Plains Type 42 trucks, and five Type 41 West Lake vehicles! Fifty sets of corresponding maintenance equipment."

"Bastard, it's almost a million, that **** gave them the approved funding!"

The subordinate who was sprayed didn't dare to speak, he could only muttered: "It's the funding approved by you bastard..."

The Military Command under the Datang Naval Command is responsible for strategy and organization affairs. Like the General Staff, it belongs to the most important department of the Navy. Without the approval of the Military Command, there is no way to set up a new mechanized marine corps. group.

The various departments of the Datang Naval Command and the Military Command are responsible for naval development and strategic planning.

The staff is responsible for specific operational command matters;

The Ministry of Military Affairs is responsible for the daily administration of the navy, such as affairs;

The Ministry of Ship Administration is responsible for equipment research, procurement, etc.;

The Logistics Department is responsible for logistical affairs, naval base construction, coastal defense, and river defense facilities construction.

The newly formed mechanized regiment of the Marine Corps has let the navy bosses know why those guys in the army only have one mechanized brigade.

This stuff is too expensive!

When it is compiled, it will not burn money, and the follow-up maintenance costs are also high. These ordnance equipment needs to be maintained, and the maintenance cost is not small.

At the same time, the training cost is also high. The daily training of ordinary troops is only ammunition money, but this thing burns oil, and the mechanical equipment has a service life. After this intense exercise, a lot of mechanical equipment can often be scrapped. , and the rest will have to be overhauled...

After all, the current car technology is still relatively primitive, and the service life of the car is not high. If it is used violently, the service life will be even lower.

This is the case with the navy, and the guards side also encountered a similar situation.

The Guards have always shown themselves with good money.

When the army and navy could only use the United Type 1 rear-loading rifle that fires paper-shell bullets, the guards have already started to use the Li Fu rifle with a unit price of more than fifty Tang yuan to fire metal bullets and use the magazine.

Even the improved model of the Li Fu rifle currently in use is far more expensive than the United Type II rifle.

The army did not dare to use mortars on a large scale, but their guards were equipped with the entire army, and they were equipped to the company.

Every infantry company of the Guards is equipped with a 60mm mortar.

The mortar itself is not expensive, but it consumes too much ammo.

Other advanced equipment, the guards are generally equipped first, and their equipment level far exceeds the army and marine corps.

But when the Guards also began to try to engage in this kind of mechanized army, they also felt a lot of pressure.

This thing is too expensive. The Guards also wanted to create a mixed brigade just like the army, but after reaching a regiment, they found that it was a bit unbearable.

In the end, he was forced to form a regiment with the navy.

The Army, Navy, and Guards all saw the prospect of mechanized troops, but they did not dare to do it on a large scale.

After all, this thing is too expensive.

After deceiving the navy and the Guards successively into mechanized units, Qixiang Automobile Company's car orders increased again.

The orders for these units are enough for them to produce for a long time, and these units will definitely wear out these equipment in the future, and if they need to be overhauled or replaced, they can continue to make money at that time.

Relying on the military's orders, Qixiang Automobile Company has gained a firm foothold.

But they know that relying solely on military orders is not a long-term solution.

The military has no enemies, and there is no urgent need to equip these advanced and expensive equipment at all. It is okay to let them keep up with the times with a little equipment, but if you want them to popularize the equipment on a large scale, then don't count on it.

If you really want to develop Qixiang Automobile Company, you still have to rely on the civilian market.

After tossing with two-wheeled and three-wheeled vehicles, Li Yubo, the general manager of Qixiang Automobile Company and also the owner, stayed in the laboratory with his technicians every day, tossing with the engine.

The core pillar of their Qixiang Motors is the small twin-cylinder gasoline engine.

Although this small double-sided gasoline engine has low horsepower, it is light in weight, small in size, and more importantly, low in production cost.

Compared with those two-cylinder engines of other car companies, their engines are actually easier to achieve industrial production in structure, and the cost is lower.

And Li Yubo hopes to make an engine with higher horsepower on the basis of this engine, while controlling the cost, volume and weight.

Do it for what? Naturally, to enter the four-wheel vehicle field.

In the past period of time, UU reading www. uukanshu.com made him realize that relying on two-wheeled vehicles as a foundation can open up a way for him, but if he wants to continue to grow and develop, it is not enough to rely only on two-wheeled vehicles, and side three-wheeled vehicles are not very reliable. .

If you really want to grow and develop, you still need a four-wheeled vehicle.

His company has already established a four-wheeled vehicle R&D center, and is preparing to design and develop a more market-acceptable personal car. The appearance and interior design of this car need to be elegant.

In line with the elegance of the Tang Dynasty, it is the kind that is very low-key at first glance, and very pretentious when you look closely.

At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to certain posture and feelings. Nowadays, driving a car is too troublesome and tiring. After those rich people buy a car, none of them are driven by themselves, and they are all driven by special drivers.

At the same time, the price should not be too high. Qixiang Automobile Company will develop a private car whose starting price can be controlled at around 2,000 Tang Yuan.
