"I'm going to the front line, are there any problems?"

"There are many problems and it's very serious! First of all, we don't have the right transport vehicles to transport the self-propelled artillery over, and I can't find enough fuel transport vehicles, so I really don't know how to transport our self-propelled artillery to the front line now."

When Rebrov said this, Gao Yang's head was so big that he immediately said anxiously: "Salim said he had been looking for a tow truck, hasn't he been delivering it?"

"Not delivered, and Salim said, it is very likely that we can't get the trailer we need!"

Gao Yang was a little anxious. Without a cart, how could he transport these five self-propelled artillery to the border?

"Fake! I will urge Salim again. If we really can't find a cart to transport our cannons, then how about driving the cannons directly? Can we hold on to it?"

Rebrov shook his head and said bitterly: "Impossible, motorcycle hours are not enough. If you drive it directly, all the self-propelled artillery will definitely break down halfway. The most troublesome thing is that we don't have accessories! We can't repair it. It's different from driving 300 kilometers every time we drive fifty kilometers."

Gao Yang was completely depressed.

In this world, tanks and self-propelled artillery are basically tracked, and there are only a few models of wheeled self-propelled artillery. The off-road performance of crawler-type armored vehicles is better, and most of the terrain can run. Wheel armored vehicles also have certain off-road capabilities, but they cannot leave the road. It is not that they cannot drive after leaving the road, but that off-road capabilities are much worse than those of crawler-type vehicles.

Tracked armored vehicles have good off-road performance and can gallop on the field when fighting, but there are also disadvantages, that is, long-distance transfers must be transported by vehicles, rather than relying on their own ability to travel.

Tracked armored vehicles are not suitable for driving on the road. It will be a trivial matter. The trouble is that long-distance driving will cause damage to the tracks and load-bearing wheels. They run happily on the road, but when they get into the battlefield, they will get stuck. How can they fight? So when fighting from a long distance, tanks and self-propelled artillery have to be pulled over with tow trucks.

Another problem is that tanks and armored vehicles are all oil tigers, and they consume forty or fifty liters of diesel for an hour. The tanks and self-propelled artillery are not designed to run on the road. Although the limit speed can reach fifty or sixty kilometers, when driving off-road, the speed can reach thirty kilometers per hour, which makes people feel lightning. When running on the road, the fastest is to run thirty or forty kilometers per hour. If you really want to run according to the designed limit speed, it will be overhauled when you wait for hundreds of kilometers to run, and the engine and transmission system must be overhauled.

Another very important and troublesome problem is motorcycle hours.

The working hours of the engine are called motorcycle hours. Heavy vehicles such as tanks and armored vehicles will be equipped with engine hour watches. After the engine works for a certain period of time, it will be overhauled.

Modern tank and armored vehicles need to be maintained after running for four or five motorcycle hours, and the most are only ten motorcycle hours, so it should be checked and maintained. Moreover, large items such as engines and gearboxes need to be maintained.

So if the self-propelled artillery was driven by itself, Gao Yang and the others would have to prepare a lot of oil and materials, and they would definitely have to undergo major repairs after they arrived at the place.

During war, self-propelled artillery is definitely more convenient and easier to use than tow cannons, and has stronger survivability. All combat systems are integrated into one car, so it is definitely better to run after fighting. However, when enjoying the convenience, you have to pay a lot of money, which is that you must usually spend more energy and cost to maintain. Therefore, although self-propelled artillery is much more useful than tow cannons, it is impossible to replace the tow cannons in full.

Now Gao Yang and the others are facing such problems. They have self-propelled artillery, but there are no transport trucks, lack of oil tankers that supply oil to self-propelled artillery, and there are no special ammunition supply trucks. If you take five self-propelled artillery, it is impossible to drive out dozens of kilometers to find a gas truck.

What's more, Yemen can't see any gas stations after leaving several big cities.

Gao Yang looked at Masiev and shouted: "Our self-propelled artillery can run for several motorcycle hours without any problems?"

Masiev wiped the black oil from his hands, thought for a while, and whispered: "It should be no problem to run all five self-propelled cannons for three motorcycle hours, but two of them need to be replaced with accessories, but we don't have accessories, so we can only use them all the time. When the time comes, it is really not guaranteed whether they can be repaired and continued to run."

There are five self-propelled cannons, and you can't throw them away and then pull the tow cannon to the front line. Gao Yang's proposed combat method is difficult to support, and it is mainly because it cannot achieve combat effectiveness while ensuring safety, so self-propelled cannons still have to be used.

Gao Yang said with some annoyance: "Why didn't you say it earlier if you lack accessories? You only told me this time."

Masiev was a little nervous and said nervously: "I thought it was useless because there were no accessories in the whole of Yemen, and these cannons were not maintained. Many items needed to be maintained within five motorcycle hours. Here are more than a dozen or even twenty motorcycle hours to be maintained. Once some parts need to be replaced, you need to wait for a long time."

Rebrov also said in grief: "Masiev has been here for too long. He is used to tinkering with life. I just knew the specific situation. However, Masiev is indeed very powerful. Without him, our self-propelled artillery should have been damaged."

Gao Yang was very helpless. What happened here is actually very common. In places like Africa and Yemen, many slightly more advanced things are directly damaged because no one knows that there is maintenance.

"You are not blamed for the situation this time, but remember, what accessories are needed in the future and what maintenance is needed. You must say in advance that I will give you everything you need, but how can we know if you don't say it."

Gao Yang was not furious, but Masiev still said tremblingly: "Yes, yes, I understand, this will not happen next time."

Gao Yang waved his hand and said to Masiev: "Create a list of accessories you need quickly and prepare the allowance. Go ahead, hurry up and don't miss it."

Masiev said in surprise: "Yes, I'll go now. Can I really get accessories? Uh, sorry, I'll go right away!"

Masiev hurriedly ran away, and Rebrov whispered: "Boss, is it too late to be so tight? I think it's better to ask Salim to find a trailer. We should pay attention to something that shouldn't go wrong."
