Chapter 481: Run, Head of State (Part 2)

Highway No. 700 is surrounded by lush forests, surrounded by military-controlled areas. Although private vehicles are not prohibited from passing, they are absolutely not allowed to stay here at will. There are irregular motor patrols on the highway. Once they are discovered by them, the drivers who violate the rules will have to suffer a little.

It seems that the road is not very busy. At least Xu Jun and the others have not encountered many vehicles along the way. Except for the army resting on the roadside, they have only seen two ordinary car transport teams so far. The trucks are hung with German car transport corner flags, and the doors are painted with the 10,000-word gear signs of the German Labor Front. The carport is covered tightly, and I don’t know what kind of cargo is transporting.

Xu Jun was not interested in exploring these boring problems. Whenever the vehicles intersect, he would retract back into the turret to avoid unnecessary chaos, because the shiny tank alone would have stunned the drivers. If he saw the head of the empire sitting on the tank again, there would definitely be a danger of causing a car accident.

I don’t know what went wrong, until they drove out of the military zone, the tank did not encounter any patrol team. In the eyes of others, this was obviously another miracle that accompanied the head of state. However, Xu Jun judged that there might be his own reasons behind this, but in general, not encountering trouble is always a physical and mental pleasure.

"Pull over." Xu Jun pressed the call button in the car and issued an order to the driver. A y-shaped intersection appeared in front of the highway, and a dirt road broke out from the intersection and extended to the northeast.

Tank No. 4 pulled over and stopped the car in front of a street sign. Randolph leaned back from the cockpit and turned his head to look at the head of state standing in the command tower.

"Is there any problem? My head of state." Randolph asked.

The head of the empire sat on the chariot seat, holding his jaw with one hand.

"I was wondering where we should go now." Xu Jun didn't expect to actually get rid of the large army. At this time, he decided to indulge himself. He could have imagined that the future would be in chaos, and after he returned, he would definitely be preached by a group of generals and marshals. Weirle would not let him go first, let alone Blauchic, who was put on a pigeon in front of him.

"Before they were caught back, I want to relax and experience the pastoral scenery of Germany. Can you help me realize this wish?" Xu Jun looked at his adjutant group members with a sincere expression.

"Of course, your wish is our mission, and we will do our best to help you fulfill this wish." Colonel Daogen still had the cold expression. When the head of state asked him for help in person, the passion in his heart began to boil.

"As for orders, my head of state." Randolph grinned and raised his hand to salute.

"This is my honor, my head of state." Dieshenhofen stroked his chest and bowed his body to greet him, with a hearty smile on his face.

"Thank you, I'm very happy to have you subordinates and close friends." Xu Jun nodded slightly, and the sun shone through the hatch on his handsome face, and the smile on the corner of his mouth looked particularly dazzling.

"The Head of State just now seemed to have talked about his best friend, Colonel." The SS lieutenant colonel said in a low voice.

"You definitely don't include Lieutenant Colonel Randolph." Daogen kicked Randolph fiercely from the slit of the radio.

"Walking from the road on the right, I recognize this path leading directly to Vincedorf. There are many small lakes around it, hidden among the woods. I have been there for camping. The scenery around me is very beautiful, especially when the fog is fogging in the early morning, the faint mist covers the lake, making people feel like they are in a fairyland outside the world." Since the decision has been made, Daogen immediately shoulders his own responsibilities. He has been here many times and is very familiar with the nearby roads and environment.

"General Weiller must have sent people to look for us everywhere. We have already exposed our whereabouts in front of many people. Taking the path is a good way. They must have thought we would follow the road to Berlin." Diesenhaufen agreed with Dogan's arrangement.

"Oh? Aren't we going to Berlin?" Randolph felt a little regretful. He also wanted to show off on the streets of Berlin. Not every time he had the opportunity to drive a tank, nor every time there was a head of the empire sitting on it.

"Shut up, Randolph, let this thing move immediately." Colonel Dogen was struggling with the transmission and radio equipment between the two, otherwise he would have asked that subordinate to taste the sanctions from the SS Colonel.

"As for orders, Colonel, start immediately." Randolph quickly let go of the handbrake and held the joysticks on both sides with both hands.

The tank that Xu Jun was riding in was actually a brand new model. The overall configuration and performance were relatively close to the historical Type 2. It also adopted some designs that were only available in G, such as the thickened side wall captain and the single-piece hatch cover.

The car was designated as the R-type, which is the beginning letter of Reinhardt. In private, Rhine Steel designers called it the "head of the head", which means a special model specially designed for the "head of the head of the tank regiment".

The R-type 4 tank retains the hatch on the side of the turret, but it has been changed to a single armored door that opens to the rear. The observation window on the loader side has been cancelled and a roof periscope that can be operated internally. Usually, the interior of the cabin is folded upward and placed on the top of the turret. When needed, it can be quickly lowered for the loader to observe the situation outside the vehicle.

The turret side door on the side of the captain was cancelled. In order to maintain the appearance of the appearance, the designer inlaid an additional steel plate in the same position as the left hatch door and also installed a set of rotatable periscopes for the captain to use when observing the external situation.

On the commander's command tower, Rhine Steel experts also historically equipped the tank with a set of perimeter periscope set. The commander can see a panoramic view of 180 degrees in front of the camera. When viewing the angle parameters marked below the camera, you can instantly understand the target's position. The periscope can turn to both front and rear at will, making it almost impossible for the German chariot to have blind spots in the perspective of the German chariot, and it is difficult for the enemy to launch sneak attacks and attacks from the side and rear like before.

However, this system is relatively complex and sophisticated. The top hatch must be closed when used, so it can only be placed in the storage box at the back of the turret, and will only be placed on the side wall of the command tower during combat.

Xu Jun believes that this system needs to be greatly improved. Although it has good performance, it is too troublesome to use. On a battlefield with complex situations, any delay or error will have fatal consequences. If the operation and maintenance are too complicated, it is better to let the captain lean out from the hatch to check it out.

The No. 4 R tank is more like a new technology test vehicle. Technical experts in the German machinery field are stacked with various latest R&D results. The most impressive one is perhaps the new muzzle retractor installed on the 43-diameter 75 mm main gun.

Originally, Rhine Steel designed a single-hole spherical muzzle retractor for the long-body main gun. In the eyes of the head of the empire, this thing was ugly and inefficient. Now, under the guidance of Xu Jun, Rhine Steel has developed a regular double-chamber muzzle retractor in later generations, effectively reducing the rear seat distance of the cannon. The disadvantage is that the muzzle shock wave may damage the infantry accompanying the tank, but only the step-tank coordination regulations need to be modified, and this danger should be avoided.

At present, this medium-sized main tank, which combines the advanced German technology, slowly drove off Highway 700 and drove slowly towards a forest in the distance along a dirt road opened on a verdant lawn.

"General, we are too fast!" Guderian's adjutant grabbed the handle in front of the back seat of the motorcycle with one hand, and pressed the military cap on his head with the other hand.

"They just passed ten minutes and we can catch up with the head of state soon." Guderian skillfully switched gears and then continued to increase the throttle.

"What should we do after chasing you? Sir." The adjutant shouted loudly in the wind.

"Stop that tank and ask the Head of State to stop his game. We have more problems that need him to solve." Guderian turned his head and replied loudly.

"We want to stop him before something happens to him. He has the mission of leading the entire country and must make him clear about this." Kluge said loudly in his seat.

"I agree with you, Your Excellency Marshal." Guderian nodded quickly and agreed.

"Can you still stick to it? Anders." Klug turned his head and looked at his adjutant. The colonel sat at the back of the standby, clutching the spare tire under his butt with both hands.

"It's absolutely fine, Your Excellency Marshal." The major nodded vigorously, indicating that he was very strong.

Condapu tricycle roared forward, and the armored lieutenant general hid behind the goggles and stared at the road ahead. He believed that he was walking on the right road, carrying the head of state, and might appear in his vision in the next second. The heavy three-wheeler rushed through the y-shaped intersection and chased towards Berlin, because the speed was too fast, so no one in the car noticed that there were two conspicuous track marks on the dirt road on the side.

"Go to the right and pay attention to shifting gears. You are driving a tank, not an ice cream van. Just run over, it's just a puddle." Daogen's radio radio poked out of the hatch door and directed Randolph forward loudly.

"I can see the road, sir, I'm not blind." Randolph poked half of his head out of the cockpit and muttered to express his dissatisfaction.

"Don't talk nonsense, look at the road ahead." Daogen mercilessly swung the rifle in his hand and hit Randolph's helmet on his head.

"It will be broken, sir." Randolph shrank his head into the cabin.

"If you break it, change it to another one, it will be a sound anyway." Dieshenhofen couldn't help but complain that this once innocent young officer had obviously been damaged by the head of state and the guys around him.

"Hey, you must notice that you are talking to an officer with a higher rank than you, Major." Randolph accused.

"Thank you for your reminder, I also noticed, Lieutenant Colonel Randolph." Dogan continued to jingle Randolph's helmet.

"Okay, don't make a fuss, listen quickly, I seem to hear some birds singing." Xu Jun stood in the conducting tower, squinted his eyes slightly. Although there was always a smell of engine oil mixed with exhaust gas in his nose, being surrounded by green nature will naturally make people feel refreshed.

"Stop quickly and turn off the engine!" Daogen swung his wrench and knocked down the stop button with a "clang".

"It seems like a cuckoo?" Dieshenhofen poked his head out from the side door of the turret.

"Maybe it's a grouse. I just saw several grouse. My head of state. Let's go hunting, and then you can go to the lakeside picnic that the colonel said. I remember bringing a set of folding stoves in the stock box." Randolph happily made a suggestion.

"Why didn't I know that there are such prep items in the tank?" Daogen looked at his subordinates in confusion.

"Because I put it in with my own hands." Randolph replied proudly.

"Clang!" The sound is crisp and loud.

This is the largest artificial forest planting area around Berlin. At that time, few people knew how many military institutions were hidden in this large jungle. Judging from the map, Xu Jun's car crew is now out of the area between Vincedorf and Lukenwald, with many natural lakes dotted around here.

"Randolph did make a good suggestion, but I don't know if it's a hunting restricted area nearby." Xu Jun rubbed his chin, and Randolph's proposal really made him moved.

"There were many hunting grounds here before, and many of them were private territories near the west, but now this area has been acquired by the state. I don't know if hunting is prohibited, so there should be no big problem. Because when I came here two years ago, I also ate roasted grouse from nearby restaurants, which is said to have been hunted by villagers from the woods." Daogen quickly replied.

"Okay, park the car next to the woods, let's go around the woods and see if you have any good luck." Xu Jun patted the roof of the turret and issued an order loudly.

ps: Things went smoothly, so I updated it in advance, which is a great congratulation.

In addition, I will still have to take a day off tomorrow. I will send another notice tomorrow. I hope everyone can understand.

After the time is over, the update will be restored to normal. (To be continued.)
