An orange-red sun slowly rose, and it was another refreshing winter dawn. The forest and grass were covered with a thin layer of mist, floating in the wind like a light golden veil.

Issenhofen came to the head of state's bedroom on time and woke Xu Jun up from his sweet sleep. The warm bed was full of temptation for the head of state, but the adjutant cruelly pulled open the curtains, and the bedroom was suddenly filled with dazzling sunshine. The empire's plan to stay in bed failed before it was implemented. He had no choice but to get up, wash, change clothes and eat breakfast under the supervision of the adjutant.

Today, Xu Jun's schedule was not very full, but there was an important diplomatic meeting at 11:00 a.m. He wanted to receive the newly appointed Romanian ambassador in his office and accept the letter of state submitted by the other party, so he had to return to the head of state before 10:00. Without further details of the busy work, the head of state finally got on his own car on time and left Cuomosdorf quickly with a warm farewell from a group of officials and officers in the test site.

Seeing the silver-shining head of state drive onto the highway, Guderian put down his saluting arm and turned to look at the battle director beside him.

"Let's go, General Yodel."

"Okay, let's take my car this time, Goodrian." Yodel pointed to his Mercedes-Benz.

"No problem." The armored lieutenant general nodded and expressed no objection.

These two people did not have a deep personal relationship in the past, and this cooperation was entirely due to the order of the head of state, so of course there was no resistance.

Guderian and Manstein have many similarities. Both of them are outstanding tactical experts, but compared with Manstein, Guderian is less proud of himself when dealing with people. Therefore, in the German Command and the Army, although Guderian has not many friends, he has not established many stubborn enemies.

Xu Jun also had a good impression of this outspoken general, because he liked to speak out and speak out when he found out the problem, especially in the battle on the Eastern Front. At that time, Hitler could listen to it even once, and the ending might change.

Later generations often liked to compare Guderian with a certain fox. The two did have similar backgrounds. When they joined the army, they started as light infantry commanders. They also became armored forces commanders before the outbreak of World War II and also gained a reputation on the French battlefield.

But in Xu Jun's opinion, only Guderian is the real armored warfare expert among these two people, and Rommel only used his experience in light infantry command to tank combat command. Studying Rommel's battle examples, you will find that this marshal is better at using artillery and infantry in the battle, but often makes tactical mistakes in the use of tanks, but his opponents are often more useless, so under the halo of victory, the hero is not wrong.

Rommel is indeed good at using some effective tactical tricks. When encountering opponents who lack anti-tank capabilities or are dull in tactics, they will certainly be invincible. Once they encounter strong and hard-hitting hard bones, this fox will often be beaten to doubt his life.

Xu Jun always felt that if Rommel was sent to the Eastern Front battlefield, the outcome might be more miserable than Paulus. At least friendly support would never come on time.

Guderian and Yodel were chatting about not much nutrition all the way. During this period, all units were busy expanding their troops. Apart from the battle on the Arabian Peninsula, there was not much new things to say. Not only did a new king change there, it was said that even the country name was changed. With the promotion of the British, the peninsula regained its balance of power.

Qusiral's troops are gradually evacuating the peninsula to reduce the pressure on logistics supply. Germany consumed a lot in this war, but the harvest was much greater than the loss. It not only controlled the important Middle East trade hub, but also obtained the most valuable oil resources. After taking the peninsula, this important trade route between Asia and Europe was completely stabilized and would not be in danger of being cut off for at least a few years.

The convoy carrying the two generals soon arrived at the armored vehicle test site. Today is a comprehensive display of motor power and firepower before the equipment is finalized. Most of the equipment is prototype vehicles, so many technicians from the factory are present.

Yodel's Mercedes-Benz drove to the edge of the parking meter before stopping, only a few meters away from the nearest prototype. After getting off the car, he nodded and thanked the driver who helped him open the door. Guderian put on the military cap on his head.

"It looks smaller than I thought." He looked at the new equipment waiting to be finalized and explained his first impression.

"It's really impressive. Although I've seen the photos of it yesterday, now I don't know what words to describe it when I see the real thing in front of me." Yodel walked to Guderian, and also looked emotional.

"Good morning, General Yodel, General Guderian." A lieutenant colonel in a leather windbreaker greeted him and saluted the two generals respectfully.

"Good morning, Lieutenant Colonel Cryanberg." Goodrian took the initiative to reach out and shook hands with the project director officer.

Crynberg is not a technician, but an administrative officer assigned by the Army, responsible for the operation, contact and quality control of the entire project.

"How is the vehicle situation? Can the experiment be done normally?" Yodel then shook hands with the lieutenant colonel.

"Everything is normal, General, these Rheinmetall technicians, had been in the garage for a whole night last night." Crionberg made an invitation gesture, and then took the two generals to the test vehicle.

"Please allow me to introduce this unparalleled armored vehicle to the two generals." The Lieutenant Colonel introduced with an exaggerated expression, looking like a kitchen supplies salesman.

"We must remind you that this weapon project was formulated by the head of state himself, and both the design concept and the connotation have surpassed this era." Crionberg patted the armor plate of the prototype car with his hand.

"The Head of State personally gave it a name, Sorpion, does it feel very deterrent?"

"Scorpion Tank Destroyer, Project Number" Guderian took the technical documents from his adjutant.

"I think it should be summarized as a self-propelled artillery, what do you think?" Yodel turned his head and asked.

"I agree with your idea, but since the Head of State has decided, it must be his consideration." Guderian decided to consider whether to make suggestions to the Head of State after seeing the performance display of this weapon. For this tank expert, as long as this weapon does have the anti-armor capability described on paper, it will be recognized and welcomed by him.

Guderian carried his hands behind his back and turned around the prototype car. The chassis of the car was not unfamiliar with him. He knew at a glance that it was 38 tons of Czech Republic, which occupied half of the German light-mounted adapter.

Germany is not ready to continue to open Skoda's tank production line, not because of the so-called racial cleanliness, but purely economic considerations. The 38t is indeed a magic car with balanced performance, but it is obviously out of date in technology and it is difficult to deal with the subsequent cruel battles on the Eastern Front.

The German army will gradually replace these tanks in four years, because most of the officers and soldiers who drive this tank have been in service for more than two years and have grown into veterans with rich combat experience. They cannot lose money in the Eastern Front battlefield due to insufficient performance. Therefore, among the current German modification designs, the first choice of track chassis is this 38t.

The upper part of this 38t chassis is a special-shaped war room, and the front is a whole piece of tilted armor. I am afraid that when someone sees it, someone will definitely shout "Sursuiter", but don't be so anxious, let's move our eyes upwards.

Just on the top of this armored room that looked like a "Sursuit", six large-caliber recoilless cannons were installed. This is not a Suspensioner at all, but a US m50 Ontus self-propelled cannon modified from the 1940s.

I read too much information today and my eyes were a little blurred.
