Chapter 494: 494 Simple Countermeasures
Chapter 494494 Simple Countermeasures
“Boton sent a strange telegram.” When Loew found Tang Mo in a hurry, Tang Mo was having lunch with Leer.
After You Lin left Long Island, Tang Mo naturally felt that he was capable again, and it became his little hobby to tease Le'er who was studying.
Tang Mo helped Leer cut the beef, stuck a piece of it with a fork, and put it into Leer's mouth. Then he looked at the somewhat embarrassed Loew and asked, "What's going on?"
"Gobl has invested a kind of tank!" Loew answered Tang Mo's question worriedly: "Dorne's southern defense line is in danger!"
"Huh? Tank?" Tang Mo was slightly startled. He really didn't expect that the new weapons that Datang Group was still keeping secret would actually be developed by Cyric.
Don’t underestimate the heroes of the world! Thinking of this, Tang Mo shook his head slightly and smiled bitterly: Since he started to organize his own country, he seems to have really relaxed a lot about the control of the world's weapon technology.
Although it is absolutely wishful thinking for the enemy to surpass Datang in terms of weapons technology, it can be done by bullying the younger brothers of Datang Group who cannot keep up with the times in the technical field.
“Interesting, really interesting.” Tang Mo said with a smile, stroking his hands: “It seems that I really underestimated Sophia’s opponent.”
Datang has his own secrets, and it is impossible for Sophia to know them all. Obviously, Sophia also has her own little secrets, and she has no intention of letting Tang Mo know...
“Our spies deployed in Gobol saw a large number of airships being transferred to the front line, more than 50 in number.” Loew continued to add.
Airships are different from tanks. Tanks can use canvas shields and station security to maintain secrecy, so the probability of being discovered is slightly smaller.
However, airships can only fly in the air. Even if they are out and about during the day, they can still be easily detected.
Hence, the spies deployed by the Tang Dynasty in the Gobel Kingdom immediately discovered the army of airships rushing to the front line, and also sent an alarm to Tang Mo.
“Let’s find a way to help Bolton settle Pingke’s matter first... After all, if Bolton is lost, there will inevitably be problems with the rubber supply in the direction of Yucheng.” Tang Mo’s biggest concern now is actually the special industrial resource of rubber.
There is no other way. He can import oil from the Ice Empire, the Pinewood Kingdom, the Susas Kingdom, and the Nanla Empire. Even the oil fields reserved on Long Island can supply it, and the production capacity is still very high.
Steel and rare metals, given the vast territory of the Tang State, are actually not a big problem to be self-sufficient, and they can also be imported everywhere.
This rubber can only be produced in the south, and it is an indispensable resource, so Tang Mo pays special attention to it. This is also an important reason why he placed both Burton and Strauss in Donne.
"We only have one infantry division in the direction of Yucheng... It is still a newly expanded unit, and its combat effectiveness is not very strong... If we go south..." Loew reminded Tang Mo nervously.
At present, the Kingdom of Tang Dynasty has not completed the expansion of its troops. Although there are 20 divisions, there are not many that can fight at full strength.
Furthermore, according to Nangonghong's design, the main troops are all within the Kingdom of Tang Dynasty. The troops placed in Yucheng and Bunas and other places are actually second-line divisions, and their combat effectiveness is not enough.
Even in the world, the second-line troops of the Tang Dynasty are definitely very capable, but Tang Mo may not be willing to take them out to really waste their money.
In the past, he would sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers. Seeing the two groups of people fighting desperately, Tang Mo naturally didn't think it was a big deal. But now it's a different matter for him to set out on his own.
"Are you kidding? Why do we have to get involved ourselves?" Tang Mo glanced at the nervous Loew and quickly waved his hand.
Loew also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he did not push unprepared troops to the front line and let precious soldiers die, he felt that there was nothing to be nervous about.
"Since Cyric has not ended, we will continue to watch the show! But we have to give Bolton some support, at least so that he can withstand Gobel's attack." Tang Mo took Leer's hand with his mouth The beef that came over, swallowed it in one bite and said.
Ever since Tang Mo’s caravan brought back spices from all over the world, the food on Long Island can really be said to be the best in the world.
In order to make his stomach more comfortable, Tang Mo really took great pains. He likes to cook, but he is a noob. He is also the type who loves to play more the more he cooks. He doesn't know how much high-quality ingredients are wasted.
Although he is not very good at cooking, Tang Mo is definitely a gourmet. His eating skills are unparalleled in the world and he is at the level of a first-class foodie.
He has dozens of chefs under him, and they basically work for him alone every day. This life can definitely be regarded as luxurious to the extreme.
But no one would think Tang Mo was extravagant and wasteful, because he is really the richest rich man in the world. Although the amount of gold under his feet has not increased much recently, it still remains at a terrifying amount.
Let alone having something to eat and drink, frankly speaking, even if he goes gambling, the family fortune will be enough to lose for a while.
The taste of black pepper stimulated Tang Mo's taste buds. This Western meal, or Tang's dinner called Bunas Black Pepper Pan-fried Steak, really tasted good.
The kitchen has a full set of grilling equipment, the chef has delicate techniques, and Tang Mo’s precise recipe reference makes this meal very reproducible. Being able to taste familiar flavors in a different world still made Tang Mo miss it very much.
"Temporarily produce a batch of special bullets. Just follow the previous drawings... and send them to Bolton first! In addition..." Tang Mo paused, then continued to add: "Tell Bolton to directly modify some anti-aircraft guns to shoot flat, first Make do.”
When Tang Mo said this, there was a faint smile on his face: Rommel's ultimate move is the old skill of the 88mm anti-everything gun. It depends on whether Bolton can make this tactic popular in other worlds. Glorious.
Lew was stunned. He didn't expect that Tang Mo really didn't take the opponent's tank seriously. In fact, he wrongly blamed Tang Mo. In fact, Tang Mo even overestimated the performance of the opponent's tank.
Since there were no photos, the text describing the opponent's tank in the telegram sent by Burton was not very precise, so Tang Mo thought that the tank produced by the opponent was quite complete.
If Tang Mo knew that what the other party made was junk like the A7V, he might just ask Burton to make a few anti-tank guns and use them as a makeshift.
However, Loew didn't say anything. He just nodded: "I understand, please call Bolton back immediately!"
Tang Mo had no intention of keeping him as a lightbulb. If Loew didn't come in to deliver the telegram, Tang Mo and Le'er might have ended up in the bedroom.
Unfortunately, his interest had been interrupted, and Tang Mo had no intention of dragging this novel into 404 anymore, so he told Loew who was about to leave: "Stop by Roger's office and ask him to come to my office..."
"That's right!" After he finished speaking, he remembered the matter of the airship, and then added: "Give Bolton the information about the airship as well! Since he has suffered a loss, you must help him make up for it, otherwise he will If we lose, wouldn’t the invincible golden body of our Datang graduates be shattered?”
“Yes!” Loew responded immediately after hearing this.
Dragon Cave is now very large, with many offices on the periphery. The prime minister’s office is not far from the core building of Dragon Cave, so it is also a good idea for Loew to pass on a message.
Soon Roger came to Tang Mo's office, and Tang Mo just had someone take Leer back to school.
Wiping the lipstick on his cheeks, Tang Mo threw the silk scarf aside and said to Roger who came in: "Cyric's new tanks have joined the war. On the southern front of Dorne, they have caused a lot of damage to Bolton. Trouble."
Roger was slightly startled after hearing the news, and then realized the crux of the problem: "I didn't expect that they would take the lead!"
"Yes! With this war as an advertisement, their tanks will definitely sell well for a while. We still suffered a loss after all." Tang Mo said to Roger with a smile: "But the problem is actually not big."
"We are now backed by a country, and we cannot sell advanced weapons as unscrupulously as Cyric..." Roger said with some regret.
Many senior officials of Datang were accustomed to their previous status as businessmen and had not yet transformed, so Tang Mo's reaction to Roger was not surprising.
"Every advantage has a disadvantage. This is inevitable." Tang Mo waved his hand: "And we haven't really been surpassed by others, so there is no need to worry."
He glanced at Roger and paused for two seconds before continuing: "I have asked someone to send a telegram to Harry. Let the automobile factory in Yucheng and the tractor factory in Longcheng produce a batch of tanks as soon as possible. Let’s seize the market!”
"Using our tanks to compete for the market? Isn't it overkill?" Roger is still planning to make the Tang Dynasty cavalry a blockbuster in the next war.
"Of course it's impossible to use our No. 4, isn't that crazy?" Tang Mo waved his hand with a sinister look on his face: "Mark1...or mark4...that's about it."
For this world, the technology used by the Tang Kingdom was still too advanced and advanced. Tang Mo felt that he could make enough money from a group of big investors as long as he used some backward technology to fool people.
As for technical suppression, this kind of thing is only suitable when his own troops are attacking others.
"Mark 1? Mark 4?" Roger is not in charge of technical matters, so he was confused when he heard these weird code names - this is a code name that is full of ambiguity even in the 21st century. Who knew you were talking about the British War? Water tank or Iron Man's alloy suit?
"You don't have to worry about it. Just leave this matter to Harry." Tang Mo looked confident.
