Chapter 440: Agricultural tank

After a friendly hug, the two of them walked together as if they were old friends for many years. As for Sheffield, behind them were the bodyguards who were disembarking one after another. The family manor, as the ground snake in Coahuila, Rodriguez's home has a different kind of weather.
The two also watched a Latin dance, which surprised Sheffield. It seems that the Latin dance hasn't appeared for long. Is it already so popular?
"William came to Coahuila as a guest, which made me very happy, but then it came back, I recently heard something." Rodriguez said with a smile, "I don't know if it is true."
"With our friendship across the border, of course, I will not hide it as long as I know it." Sheffield was not nervous at all, and responded with a smile.
"I heard that the Texas government has enacted a bill to build a wall along the border and let us pay for Mexico?" Rodriguez spread his hands, "I'll make it clear , Is this kind of bill too stupid? "
Not only Texas but the upcoming Arizona and New Mexico will pass the bill. But what Rodriguez said is true, Mexico really seems stupid to pay for it.
"Oh, this is the case. Some Mexicans crossed the border, causing protests from the Texans. You also know that our holding rate of guns is a little higher, and there are always borderline bloodshed incidents that are easily noticed by the federal government." Sheffield said lightly,
As for letting Mexicans pay, do n’t you know those politicians, a few words can be made into reality, just for those idiots who like to listen. I ’ll say it to you again. It is also good! "
The slave owners ridiculed Texas unscrupulously, and changed their nationality as if they had crossed the border.
"It's good for me?" Rodriguez asked, "What's the point?"
"Economic development is inseparable from the labor force. Many people come to our country, which is also detrimental to your big family. Because you control less population, and no one works for you, you will fall behind, if your competitors There are many people, but you have few people. You will increase your working hours, and your workers may resist. Stability first! "Sheffield said with a raised eyebrow." The more people you control, Poferio. President Dias will value you more, will he?
Holding Rodriguez for a moment, she nodded involuntarily. Sheffield said that it made sense. She directly drank the red wine from the glass and said, "The Tagore family also cannot do without the friendship of the joint company. We It has always been helping each other. In fact, to be honest, everything has to ask the so-called politicians for help, which is completely superfluous. "
"No, my friend, you are wrong. We need those well-dressed politicians to watch them go back and forth to study trivial things. We are in a symbiotic relationship with them. They can help us do many things." Sheffield With a smile, I think Rodriguez is still a bit patterned, "Small intellectuals are wary of the government, and big intellectuals are wary of the people. When they reach a certain position, they will only serve us, so democracy is the best system. It is indisputable."
In fact, Mexico is now a dictator, Sheffield is very disgusted, fortunately, is a permanent president. If there are really two brushes, the electoral system of the United States should really pay attention to this neighbor.
Although this life is destined for the United States, but Sheffield is fully aware of this election weakness, democratic elections are a system that no one dares to offend! As far as religion is concerned, democracy absolutely dare not touch religion, even if it is a recognized cult! The procrastination of the Aum Shinrikyo trial in Japan is not completely over yet, and the drug consumption in the United States of America will account for 60% of the world ’s total and hundreds of millions of private guns. The handling of the Fukushima nuclear accident in Japan also did not make people aware of what caused everyone to pay a little responsibility, and finally no one was responsible.
I dare not touch religion, arms dealers, drugs, or votes. In theory, Daqing of this era cannot be reformed, but if it is compared with the development of democratic elections to the end, Daqing will be full of reform possibilities. At least it is known that before the crash, it is also known that the strong army rescues the disaster and cannot do it. The absurdity that the plague ignored.
If the cost of the three-thousand-dollar test is in the Qing dynasty, at least if the Qing court knows that the situation is really serious, it will cut off the head of the medical insurance giant. If you dare to call Hallelujah, it will really let you see Hallelujah.
After staying in Tagore for a day, Sheffield went to the mining area of ​​Coahuila. Coahuila is a relatively rich resource in Mexico. It is famous for coal mines and iron ore, and has the potential of a manufacturing base. This is also the reason why the United Company operates here. In the early 20th century, Coahuila did not have a large population, far less than Texas, and it was not like the population of Mexico began to penetrate the border one hundred years later.
The joint company's factory is located among the mountains, but the slave owner did not actually come to visit the factory, but entered a more inaccessible place, and John Connor has already come to greet him.
"I hope I can see what I hope to appear!" Sheffield greeted the savior who saw him.
"After assembly and multiple rounds of testing, the situation is not bad." John Connor led in front and took his boss into the plant. There were not many people in it, but they were the absolute confidants of the United Company.
John Connor opened the canvas first, and a not-so-exaggerated water cabinet appeared in front of Sheffield. Seeing this, the slave owner smiled, and what the Sheffield Tractor Test Base claimed to be a new type of agricultural tractor was a downright tank.
And with the basic tank appearance, it is definitely not the first time the British have put into actual combat. It is like a full-duplex off-road vehicle. The tank in front of it is equipped with a Macqin heavy machine gun, and a turret has a 25 mm tank gun. The five pairs of load wheels, with a total weight of 7.5 tons, are very small compared to the nearly 30-ton tonnage of the first tank put in by the British.
It doesn't matter if it's small. There is no mistake in the general direction. It is very good if the weapon has basic features. Naturally, the simpler the better, the failure rate of complex weapons is extremely high.
"Go out and try! I hope it is easy to maintain, mainly speed. I don't think about firepower first! Look at the suspension system." Sheffield directed John Conner's forehead and said he would look at the experimental tank. failure rate.
Torsion bar suspension is a type of suspension that relies on the elasticity of a torsion spring to support the car body and absorb shock and vibration. Simply put, it is a rod that can be twisted horizontally at the bottom of the tank, one end is fixed to the car body, one end is connected to the fixed end of the swing arm, the fixed end of the swing arm is connected to the car body, and the movable end is connected to the load wheel.
When the load wheel is forced upward, it will drive the swing arm to rotate around the fixed end and tighten the torsion bar. The elastic force generated when the torsion bar is tightened reacts to the swing arm and is transmitted to the load wheel to generate a supporting force. This is the most space-saving and also the most effective form of suspension. In later generations, almost all tanks are in this way. In terms of weight, volume, active travel, reliability, cost, etc., it is well balanced.
Theoretically, this is the case. As for practice, at least there is still enough time to experiment slowly, holding a telescope and watching a dust storm. Sheffield observes the reliability of the new agricultural water tank tractor.
Every new thing is always accompanied by failure. Sheffield is ready to fail. I hope that all failures will happen during the experiment. When it is really used, it must be reliable.
"Boss, if we had this thing thirty years ago, we wouldn't lose. At least the regimental commander wouldn't die, and the bullet couldn't penetrate this water tank!" John Connor waited and watched, and only two of them were on the mountainside. As for The other bodyguards stayed in the factory, and even in the factory, they did not see the tank.
"This is a very novel angle, but we didn't have this technology thirty years ago. If it wasn't for the development of the automobile and the trust industry, the engine had accumulated enough technology. How could the tank appear?" Sheffield put down The telescope said, "I want a detailed breakdown rate of the hundred miles. At present, it seems that the basic obstacle crossing and the mobility are good. It is very suitable for the Great Plains in China."
"Boss?" John Connor was surprised, what he had just heard, Great Plains?
"Defense is indispensable. Isn't the civil war a contradiction between our plantation economy and those of Yankee's factories. In essence, we were robbed by them. I don't want to come again for a second time, just in case There was an economic conflict, and Yang Jiluo suddenly remembered the glorious deeds of his father, maybe he could not bear it, right? "
Sheffield smiled coldly. Is it okay to be white? The civil war is the cruelest and the least merciful. This is a basic common sense. Although in the publicity of various countries, it is always said that what unity and collective nationality our country has.
Those who speak casually, those who listen casually, can't take things seriously.
"If the test has no major problems, it is directly disassembled into parts and shipped back to China." Sheffield spoke and walked down the mountainside. "The testers are all confidants and the whole family is in Arlington. They also returned to Arlington to work. . Don't worry about the parts, the joint company has already standardized, and when there is something, it is directly manufactured by various departments for assembly welding. "
The site can be used directly on the tractor, and the artillery is used on the Army's orders, everything seems to be no problem.
