Red Alert 1895

Chapter 130: Military Cooperation (Part 1)

The Germans took a fancy to Wang Guorui's Sten submachine gun and the so-called light artillery, that is, mortars and grenades. And these two weapons are actually Wang Guorui's good things in trench warfare, weapons that can kill enemies accurately in large numbers. But now there is no need to keep it secret, because the war between Wang Guorui and the Japanese, in fact, these weapons have been made public to the world, and there is no need to keep it secret. Now I am afraid that almost the whole world knows what kind of weapon and tactics Wang Guorui used. The devils are not fools, they are so stupid and not making progress. Since the Japanese devils were able to "learn" so much from Wang Guorui, other countries can also follow suit. Moreover, the Japanese paid the tuition fees at the cost of three divisions, while other countries can learn directly without paying any price at all.

But if you want to use certain tactics, you need to use certain weapons. The Germans know that the core of trench warfare is to use firepower to prevent the enemy from attacking people, and then form a state of attrition. As for trying to crack this tactic, Wang Guorui has also demonstrated it, that is, using a lean army with a full range of weapons to directly break through the joint between the enemy's two armies, so that a big gap can be formed. From it, the enemy's position was gradually torn apart and encircled. The Germans have also learned this method, but their biggest headache is that they don't have those submachine guns, shotguns, flamethrowers and so on. These weapons are what the Germans want. Now that they cannot obtain patents for production, they can only ask Wang Guorui.

"Minister Hai Jing, I think we have so many weapons, we might as well exchange them. We use these advanced weapons to carry out cross-authorization with you, and then I authorize one thing to you, and you also authorize your latest rifles to you. Me, so we don’t have to pay any patent fees to produce each other’s weapons, what do you think?” Wang Guorui asked.

Wang Guorui also hopes to come up with one thing, so that he can cross-authorize with the Germans, so that he can obtain the right to produce German rifles. Although Wang Guorui can always rely on the red alarm system for production. But that doesn't mean it's worthless. Doing so is disrespecting patents, which will definitely do great harm to Wang Guorui's scientific development in the future. If the leader himself doesn't respect other people's patents, isn't it true that the subordinates are not upright and crooked? At that time, those domestic scientists have worked hard to research the same invention, but it was finally stolen. At that time, there was no respect for patent and copyright awareness at all, which really hit the country's innovative thinking.

Therefore, Wang Guorui chose to pay for a new type of weapon in exchange for the Germans' right to produce rifles. This is not considered a violation of the patent law, and it can be regarded as mutual respect for patents. As long as this patent issue is resolved. Then there will definitely be more scientists to invent and create in a steady stream.

"Governor Wang, I'm afraid you are making us Germans suffer? Your new weapons are only used by some special small troops, while our rifles are used by the entire army. You said you are doing this Didn’t it make us lose too much money? What’s more, you only took out one weapon as a cross-authorization, and the value between the two is not equal. Why should we authorize you our most advanced rifle? So, you If you want us to license our most advanced rifles to you, then you must give us the patent licenses for submachine guns, light artillery, flamethrowers, and shotguns, so that we can license the rifles to you!" Hai Jing said.

The Germans can be said to be very looking forward to the submachine gun, because this submachine gun has fierce firepower. One person can exert the effect of a machine gun. The only pity is that the range of the submachine gun is a bit short, because the pistol bullets are used, so the effective range is less than 50 meters. But these are also very good things, the production cost is cheap, and as long as a few submachine gunners can rush to the position, then the alternate cover is not at the level of being unable to shoot machine guns. Therefore, the Germans have an abnormally morbid obsession with firepower. As long as they can increase the density of firepower, they will all want it.

As for mortars, flamethrowers, and shotguns, these are good things for cleaning up enemies in trenches. With these kinds of weapons, it must be very convenient to clean up the trenches next. It is not as efficient as in the past to carry out battles in the trenches with too slender rifles. With the addition of shotguns, submachine guns, flamethrowers and other weapons, the number of enemies in the trenches must have been cleaned up, so there is no need to worry about it. Therefore, these weapons must be patented.

But the Germans are not stupid, because of course they know that their rifles are the mainstream. After all, these weapons of Wang Guorui are also used by small troops, not weapons for the entire army. The weapons that are truly equipped by the entire army are still mainly ordinary rifles, so the Germans must have suffered a big loss in terms of output, and naturally they are unwilling to exchange their own rifles for one of the weapons. What they have to think about is cross-licensing the whole set of weapons together so that they don't feel like they're losing money.

Wang Guorui has really learned a lot about the greed of the Germans. He actually wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail himself and obtain the patent authorization of all weapons. But Wang Guorui really has no good solution, because Wang Guorui knows that with the industrial strength of western countries, these weapons can be easily produced. After all, the technical content of these weapons is not high, especially the Sten submachine gun, which is even more cheap. Therefore, it is easy for those Westerners to imitate them through their own industrial strength. After all, many weapons are just a conceptual problem. As long as you can think of it, there is no problem in producing it. This kind of conceptual stuff has been pierced by Wang Guorui, so Westerners can learn these things without any cost, and then make their own imitations.

Therefore, Wang Guorui had to sell these submachine guns and the like now, and try to sell them at a good price, so as to get the maximum benefit. If in two years, or even within a year, Western foreign devils soon develop corresponding substitutes, they will also be imitated by foreign devils. At that time, the patents for these weapons in their hands will be in their hands. . It is not without reason that the German lions opened their mouths. After all, their industrial strength is strong. If you really want to study them, you can really study them very quickly.

So on the whole, in fact, Wang Guorui's hole cards are not many, and the German lion's big mouth is really helpless, but he has to pinch his nose to admit it. Anyway, that’s what the Germans mean. If you like to do it, do it. If you don’t like to do it, then I will study it by myself. Anyway, it can take as long as a year, or even less than half a year. Why pay so much for it? In exchange for it? Anyway, they thought that it was a foregone conclusion for Wang Guorui to produce their most advanced rifles. Since this was the case, they might as well extort some good things from Wang Guorui, which might have a lot of benefits.

"In the final analysis, our industrial strength is too weak. If Lao Tzu's industrial strength is stronger than yours, and you directly use new weapons and new materials from later generations, how can you research them? Don't you have to beg me obediently? " Wang Guorui thought helplessly in his heart.

In the final analysis, this is because my own industrial strength is too weak. If I can have enough strength to develop those weapons of later generations, those weapons of later generations have higher requirements on the country’s industrial strength. At that time, even if the Germans want to imitate, then Neither can be imitated. This will definitely be of great benefit to him, but all this can only be crooked in Wang Guorui's heart, and it is of no use. Since my current industrial strength is very weak, I hope that I can gradually become stronger so that I can have enough strength to bargain with Westerners. Although it seems that Wang Guorui's strength is good~lightnovelpub.net~ Even the British dare not insult him lightly, but this is based on the fact that the British beat Wang Guorui.

The reason why the Western powers did not attack Wang Guorui was because Wang Guorui was powerful, and even if they fought Wang Guorui, they would not gain much benefit. But if once Wang Guorui touches their core interests, and several of their countries attack together, Wang Guorui will not be able to stop it. Therefore, to strike iron, you have to be **** your own. At present, your own strength is not strong, and you can only be equal to others giving you peace, not forcing others to give you peace. Now it is actually the western powers giving peace to the kingdom, so Wang Guorui really can't be too arrogant.

"Minister Hai Jing, you want us to cross-authorize, but I also want to reach one thing with you, which is about some military cooperation. As long as these cooperation projects can be achieved, then we can also cross-authorize these military affairs. Weapons. At that time, we will license our new weapons to you free of charge, and you will license our rifles, so that neither party will have to pay patent fees. But the prerequisite is that our next cooperation can be achieved, so that we can achieve it This condition." Wang Guorui said.

"Oh? What conditions does Governor Wang have? Please tell me, as long as it is within my authorization, I can agree!" Hai Jing said. (To be continued.) xh118
