Chapter 248 Testing Tanks and Training Tank Soldiers
Meng Debiao turned around and said to the technicians behind him: "You guys go drive the tanks to the test site."
"Yes, Director." Several technicians responded in unison.
Five technicians quickly ran to the side of the tank and climbed in nimbly. Their movements were skillful and smooth, as if they had done this countless times.
As the driver ignited the engine, the tank's engine instantly burst into a violent roar, the sound like a fierce thunderstorm.
The sudden loud noise startled everyone present. Their heartbeats quickened and they stared at the huge vehicle.
Under the gaze of everyone, the driver skillfully released the clutch and gently stepped on the accelerator.
The tank's tracks began to turn, making a low friction sound, and slowly moved forward.
Although the speed is not fast, the huge body and powerful power still make people feel an irresistible majesty.
The huge tank slowly drove out of the factory and headed towards the test site.
Its figure looks particularly majestic under the sunlight, and its metal shell shines with dazzling light, as if it is an invincible steel behemoth.
Meng Debiao led the Gundam team to the testing site.
Along the way, everyone was looking forward to the tank performance, which was a scene they had never seen before.
Their hearts were filled with anticipation, imagining the tank's wonderful performance on the test field.
Ten minutes later, the tank slowly arrived at the test site outside the arsenal.
The test site was vast and flat, as if it was a stage tailor-made for tanks.
As the test began, the tank driver stepped on the accelerator deeply, and the tank engine instantly burst out with powerful power and rushed forward.
The huge roar resounded throughout the entire test site, as if announcing its power to the world.
The tank accelerated wildly on the test site, easily breaking through all kinds of terrains and obstacles.
Its tracks rolled forward, as if nothing could stop its progress.
Everyone's eyes widened as they watched the tanks running wildly around the test site.
There were expressions of shock on their faces, as if they had seen an incredible miracle.
"Oh my God, this tank is too powerful. If it were put on the battlefield, there would be a killing spree. The Japanese would have no way of stopping the tank's charge." Li Yunlong said in shock.
"It's too powerful, it's simply invincible. In my opinion, a tank can easily kill a small squad of Japanese devils." Kong Jie said with emotion.
The battalion commanders of the various regiments at the scene whispered to each other and said, "Wow, this tank is so powerful!"
"Yes, if such a tank were driven onto the battlefield, the Japanese would be scared to death!"
"I really want to equip our troops with these tanks as soon as possible. Wouldn't it be more fun to fight in this way?"
Everyone was full of expectations and yearning for the tanks in front of them.
Gundam stood aside, staring at the tank in front of him with bright eyes, his heart filled with joy.
He knew very well that although this tank could not compare with the advanced tanks of those developed European countries, it was undoubtedly an invincible existence on the battlefield in China today.
With the mobility test completed, the next test is the tank's firepower.
The concrete bunkers built on the test site are strong and thick, as if challenging the power of the tanks.
The tank slowly drove towards the bunker, aiming its gun at the target.
With a loud bang, the tank gun opened fire.
The shell hit the bunker like a flash of lightning.
The concrete bunker was blown to pieces by the tank gun's bombardment and turned into a pile of ruins in an instant.
The powerful force was astonishing, and the bunkers could not stop the tank guns at all.
The two machine guns mounted on the tank also fired wildly, with countless bullets flying towards the abandoned truck ahead.
The gunshots rang out like a rainstorm, full of power.
Almost in an instant, the trucks on the test site were turned into sieves.
Everyone at the testing ground was watching with their blood boiling and their eyes shining.
Everyone was impressed by the firepower of the tank and wanted to drive the tank back to the camp immediately.
After all the tests were completed, the tank slowly drove up to the crowd and stopped.
Its huge body looks particularly majestic in the sun, like a hero returning victoriously.
Five technicians climbed out of the tank, their faces filled with pride and joy.
They quickly came in front of Gundam and saluted.
"Reporting to the commander, all tests on the tank have been completed and no problems were found."
Gundam walked up with a big smile on his face and shook hands with the five people one by one.
"Director Meng, I am very satisfied with the tank. Thank you for your hard work during this period. On behalf of the independent column, I would like to thank you for your hard work."
Meng Debiao said loudly: "It's not hard, Commander. We are all happy to be able to do our part in the war of resistance."
Gaoda nodded in satisfaction and asked, "Director Meng, how long will it take to manufacture a tank with the current production capacity of your arsenal?"
Meng Debiao pondered for a moment and replied, "Commander, the arsenal can now produce one in half a month. The main problem is that there is not enough personnel and space."
"Director Meng, the production of tanks must be increased as soon as possible. I will arrange to solve the problem of the factory building as soon as possible. As for the problem of workers, I can transfer a group of nimble soldiers to you, and you have to train them yourself." Gundam responded.
Meng Debiao nodded and said, "No problem, Commander. Just get the people here, and I'll take care of the rest."
"By the way, Director Meng.
Now that the tanks have been manufactured, I am going to train a group of tank soldiers. I don’t want the tanks to be produced and no one knows how to drive them. That would be ridiculous.
I will select a group of people from various units and give them to you for training." Gundam continued.
Meng Debiao nodded slightly in agreement.
Driving a tank is very simple. You can become proficient at it after a period of training.
Gaoda turned around and walked in front of Li Yunlong and others, saying: "Comrades, you have just seen the various tests of the tank. I believe you can't wait to get the tank now."
"Everyone, rest assured. In the future, each brigade will form a tank battalion. Tanks will become our important assault force."
After hearing Gundam's words, everyone at the scene smiled happily.
Li Yunlong couldn't wait to ask: "Commander, when can we use the tanks?"
Gaoda looked at everyone and replied: "Comrades, the arsenal's production capacity is limited. The troops will have to wait for a while before they can use tanks. During this period of time, what we need to do is to train enough tank soldiers.
After you return, each brigade will select 300 people and send them to the arsenal for training."
"Yes, Commander."
Everyone responded in unison.
After the observation, everyone began to return to their respective units.
