74 Pickup Machine Gun

After the meeting, Meri said to his apprentice Frodo: "Frodo, wait for me, I have something to say to you."

"Okay Master." Frodo quickly replied.

After a while, the two walked down the office building together and took a walk in the small garden in the center of the arsenal.

"Frodo, how do you think this garden is beautiful?" Merri asked as she walked.

"It's very good, very beautiful. Now, many ordinary people in Chuzhou envied us so much that we said that we work in the garden every day, and life in heaven is nothing more than that!"

"This was designed by me myself." Merry said proudly. After a moment, he turned his head and looked at his apprentice who was shorter than him: "Frodo, do you think that besides Chuzhou, there are other places in the world that can give us dwarves such a good opportunity? There is such a good job to do, such a high salary to get, and the most important thing is that no one has discriminated against us, and no one will take us to the black factory!"

Frodo was stunned and paused. He shook his head: "There must be no such place except Chuzhou."

"Then you say, Chuzhou is the hometown of our dwarfs, or it is our second hometown!"

"Yes!" Frodo said.

"But I can't see it from you!" Meili's tone became stern.

Frodo was stunned. After a moment, he lowered his head, dared not speak or walk around.

"Since you also know that this is your hometown, you should love him and build him with all your heart, but I have not seen anything like this in you." Meri said earnestly, and after a while, he said, "Frodo, you have changed!"

Frodo lowered his head in shame: "Master, I was wrong. After coming to Chuzhou, the human race here is very friendly to us, and the Grand Marshal is also very tolerant to us. I eat, drink and have fun every day, and gradually I am no longer motivated."

Merry looked at Frodo and said, "Frodo, ordinary people can be without motivation, but you have to know that we cannot!

We are the foundation of the Grand Marshal. If we become lazy and without ambition, the Grand Marshal's military strength will decline. If the Grand Marshal's army is weak, who will protect our safety?

Frodo, this is our last home. If it cannot be kept here, then our dwarves will really become slaves! So I work diligently every day not only because this is the job I like, but also because only in this way can we protect the last home of our dwarves."

"Master, I know I'm wrong." Frodo was ashamed of shame.

"I know you are wrong, it means you are helpless!" After a pause, Merry said, "Let's do this, tomorrow I'll let your master's wife tell you a wife!"

"Ah?" Frodo was shocked.

"There is a woman who can control you and give birth to your own child. Only in this way can you feel that this is your real home. Only with a home can you understand responsibility and mature."

"Master...that...woman, can I find my wife by myself? Don't bother with her?" Frodo said weakly.

"No! You are still young, you will only let your lower body dominate your upper body, so I will worry about finding a wife for you. I will ask your master's wife to find you a wife like your master's wife."

"Ah?" Frodo burst into tears when he heard this.

Merry patted his apprentice's shoulder: "You will thank me soon, Frodo. It's actually a happy thing to be afraid of your wife!"

"..." Frodo dared not speak.

After walking a few more steps forward, Meili asked: "I mention you as the director of the artillery R&D department. Do you have no objection?"

"No." Frodo hurriedly said, "I know that Master loves me, so he promoted me to this director."

Meili nodded: "It's good that you know! I'll promote you to the director of the artillery research and development department, not to deliberately make things difficult for you, but to cultivate you.

Let me tell you, in the planning of the Grand Marshal, the importance of artillery ranks first! For the Army, artillery is their lifeblood!

Lifeline! Do you understand what I mean?

You are also a man, so you should know that the harder your life is, and the more confident you are!

Therefore, the general attaches unprecedented importance to artillery!

Therefore, after you are responsible for the research and development of artillery, you must actively exert your initiative, take the initiative to think, think actively, improve actively, take the long-term vision, and make your thinking broader."

"Yes, Master, I remember it!"

"Do you remember how the Grandmaster asked us?"

"Remember, one generation of export, one generation of equipment, one generation of research and development!" Frodo said.

"Yes! Export generation, equipment generation, research and development generation! The drawings I just gave you are going to equip the troops immediately, so there are actually two more tasks for you.

First, we must do the development of artillery for export, from grenade launchers to 155 howitzers. Don’t think this work is very simple, but it is not easy. We must not only make the overall performance of the artillery lag behind our army’s equipment, but also be more advanced than other weapons in the world, otherwise we cannot sell it, but also reflect the combat ideas and design ideas of the commander;

Second, you also need to develop more advanced artillery. This task is not ordinary difficult, and it is difficult to make breakthroughs in the short term. My suggestion is that you should not be anxious to achieve success, but should first calm down and understand the drawings given by the Grand Commander thoroughly, and then slowly think about the research and development. In addition, relax your horizons and open your thinking. Don’t just use the cannon thinking about artillery, but use the thinking of a military strategist to think about artillery. It’s the saying of the Grand Commander, in the future

What kind of war we want to fight, we need to develop the artillery! You can try to think from the perspective of the Grand Marshal, which city the Grand Marshal will fight next, how to fight this city, how to support and attack with artillery, and thus reversely reflect what kind of artillery we need to design and produce? In addition to working hard on the stability, firepower and rate of fire, we also need to start from the perspective of artillery and think more about mobility, operation convenience, and logistics maintenance issues."

Frodo listened quietly and kept it in mind.

"Frodo, you can't go on so confused anymore. You, me, and Taona, we are the future of the dwarf clan. What kind of achievements can we make can win the future for our dwarf clan in the territory of the Grand Marshal. So, we have to work harder, do you understand?"

"Master, I remember it!"

"Although the Grand Marshal can't do anything for a while, you can't think that you can relax because of this. You must not have such thoughts, do you understand?

The Grand Marshal did not take the opportunity to conquer the city like other city lords, but instead stopped expanding rarely. This is a fact. But you cannot simply think that the Grand Marshal wants to stop, nor can you think that the Grand Marshal is satisfied. He will only stay in Chuzhou forever. On the contrary, the Grand Marshal has stabilized his pace, not only because he does not want to expand, but because he wants to expand. In the next step, he will take greater steps. Therefore, he needs the help of us military workers, so you have to work harder than ever before, do you understand?"

Frodo was stunned when he heard this. After a while, he couldn't help asking: "Master, is the Grand Marshal really planning a big move?"

"Let me give you an example. After I got the drawings of the heavy machine gun from Dashuai, Dashuai asked me, "How do you think this machine gun can be improved?" I thought about it carefully for a while, and finally shook my head and said, Dashuai, this Browning heavy machine gun is already perfect, and there is no room for improvement. But Dashuai shook his head. Finally, when he saw that I still didn't understand, he directly explained the requirements. He asked us to equip some Browning heavy machine guns with a pickup truck, a pickup truck and a heavy machine gun."

"Pickka?" Frodo was stunned.

"It's a kind of minivan with a car attached to the back of the car, fixing the Browning heavy machine gun on it, so that the bulky but powerful heavy machine gun can become a fast-moving fire support point!"

Frodo's eyes widened after hearing this: "Master, what do you mean is the handsome man...he...he..."

He can't speak directly.

Meili nodded: "Why did the Grandmaster ask us to prepare this kind of pickup heavy machine gun? It is obviously for the next step of action. It is closest to Chuzhou and suitable for fast moving vehicles such as pickup trucks, and has important strategic value. Isn't there only one that is the only one?"

Frodo returned to his deity and sighed repeatedly: "The Grand Marshal is indeed the Grand Marshal. This courage... This wisdom..."

Meili sighed with emotion, and then said, "So, your thinking cannot be limited to the current artillery category. You have to think about how to help the general better achieve his strategic goals, such as whether we can make the artillery farther, or whether we can install an engine for the shells, so that the shells can fly towards the target like an airplane, or let the shells grow their own eyes and chase the targets, such as whether we can make them.

The cannons are loaded and fired by themselves. For example, can they integrate more than a dozen cannons into one car, and fired tens of thousands of cannons at the same time, etc., you have to start thinking about these things yourself. You can’t wait until the Grandmaster is about to fight before asking the Grandmaster what weapons do you want. We are the Grandmaster’s military experts. We are specialized in serving the Grandmaster, so we must have a forward-looking awareness. What kind of war the Grandmaster wants to fight and where the Grandmaster wants to fight, we must first develop the appropriate weapons!"
