Chapter 131 Another character

Because of Captain Gomi's loss of contact, including Lieutenant Colonel Lundstein, all instructors and special training trainees who had contact with Captain Gomi were questioned by the Special Investigation Team of the Military Intelligence Department. Despite this, Weiss and others' special training courses at the Delefiger Advanced Staff College were successfully completed.

As Lieutenant Colonel Lundstein said before the start of the special training course, the five students with the best performance in the comprehensive will be given the opportunity to visit the Federal Norman Empire on behalf of Ulster. The final winners are Igor Nice from Northnod Military Academy, Moussa Marus Emmonland from Lagson Military Academy, Winners Coverill from Hadils NCO, Long Klumber Heisen and Otto Lundes from Baston Military Academy.

After announcing the list of five people, Lieutenant Colonel Lundstein also revealed that a total of 12 military academy students were selected when the Norman Empire visited, so the federal side was also preparing to send 12 military academy students during this return visit. According to the visit plan established by senior military leaders, the five selected from the special training classes will participate in the exchange of military tactical capabilities. In addition, major military academies will also be organized to hold a joint assessment, and five of the best military basic skills will be selected from the many students, specifically responsible for the exchange of military basic skills. In other words, students who failed to get the opportunity to visit through the special training classes will have another chance to stand out in the joint military basic skills examination.

As for the two places besides 10 people, Lieutenant Colonel Lundstein said that the military has made other arrangements to prevent the embarrassing situation of losing a large score in this visit and exchange.

After the special training camp, the trainees returned to the military academy. When Weiss and his companions arrived at the Baston Military Academic, the holiday was almost over. Some trainees had returned to school early to prepare for the upcoming new semester.

Before receiving the special training mission, Weiss planned to go back to Somsonas City for two or three weeks to help plan the expansion of the family industry. As early as half a year ago, the circulation production of standard sniper rifles had been successfully launched, with monthly output easily reaching the 500 required by the military, and the production capacity was still surplus. It is obviously not cost-effective to make this circulation production line purchased at a high price in a semi-idle state. However, some steps of the production of traditional craft rifles must be handmade and cannot be fully circulation production. And the OEM for the factory under the Fat Vice President has neither profitable nor any development prospects for the Klumber Heisen family. Therefore, it is imperative to seek new bulk orders and make the Klumber Heisen family's industry move forward steadily.

It was too late to go to Somsonas City, so Weiss sent a telegram and asked the technical director Jose to come to Ao City to discuss countermeasures in person.

Two days later, Jose came and brought chief gunsmith Wicks and two young technicians, and there was a "little tail" that could not be shaken off - the jewel of the Lord and his wife, Bella Clumber Heisen.

After not seeing each other for half a year, the little luoli grew taller, and her words and deeds became more steady and shy than before. When Weiss and Jose and others were discussing the matter, she stayed quietly aside, either reading or staring blankly, without causing trouble for them at all.

From a political and diplomatic perspective, the visit of the Norman Empire to the Federation has undoubtedly played a positive and significant role in easing the international situation and improving relations between the two countries. Affected by this, the federal Congress rejected the military's plan to replace standard weapons in a large scale within three years, and only approved limited technological improvements to existing equipment. The Military Procurement Committee has officially notified the Klumber-Hisen family that although the delivery of new sniper rifles to the army has a good response, due to the failure of the special military budget, the second batch of 6,000 new sniper rifles that had previously signed an intention agreement may be postponed indefinitely.

José told Weiss that at the current production speed, in another 7-8 months, the first batch of new sniper rifles orders will be completed. If there are no new orders at that time, the production line will have to be transferred, otherwise it will suffer huge idle losses from shutdowns. The Lord's idea is to obtain the consent of the military to launch a simplified version of sniper rifles in the field of civilian firearms, and to market demands such as target shooting, hunting, and collection. It is estimated that 20,000 to 30,000 units can be sold, which can not only make up for the gap in military orders, but also bring relatively generous returns.

In Weiss's view, the Lord's idea is correct in the general direction, but launching a simplified version of military supplies can only attract mid- and low-end civilian users. If the technology of military sniper rifles is combined with the traditional craftsmanship of the Klumber Heisen family, it will launch simplified versions, enhanced versions, and luxurious versions to meet the needs of various consumer levels. In addition, considering that the military is likely to deny the request of the Klumber Heisen family to launch a civilian version based on standard sniper rifles for technical confidentiality, Weiss felt it necessary to make plans and develop a new gun with a structure different from the standard sniper rifle.

The new gun model in Weiss' head is the 3.2pir, that is, the 16mm caliber Mauser sniper rifle! The bolt-type structure, three round ammunition compartment, does not pursue the rate of fire, the medium and long range shooting accuracy must be high, and the absolute power is great enough - when hitting the key part, it can instantly kill various ferocious beasts in the wilderness. Unlike the caliber of the standard weapon, it can not only avoid suspicion, but also play the role of the ammunition production line, and achieve additional profits.

In the cooperation agreement reached by Weiss on behalf of the Klumber Heisen family and Fat Vice President, Fat Vice President provided huge funds for the Klumber Heisen family to renovate and expand the factory and purchase a flowing weapon production line. Now, the funds in the first and second phases have been in place, the renovation and expansion of the factory facilities have been completed, and the first weapon production line is operating well. As long as the order problem is solved and the later fund injection conditions are met, the plan to purchase the second weapon production line can be officially put on the agenda. In view of the federal Congress rejecting the military's large-scale dress-up plan.

In addition to maintaining conventional armaments, limited military expenditure can only be used to purchase new technical equipment. In Weiss's view, infantry rapid-fire weapons and mobile air defense weapons are the two new weapons that are most likely to be favored by the military. Once the installation is determined, the demand should not be a small amount. However, the problem is that the current external situation is loose and military expenditure is reduced. If you want to get a military order, you must first create samples with excellent performance and also gain the opportunity to show them to military officials. Even if you pass the layers of tests, it will ultimately depend on the ideas of senior military leaders.

In the Ulster Free Federation, the patent system has been relatively complete. In view of this, Weiss drew the famous Maxim heavy machine gun technical drawings, and asked José to hand them over to the Lord, and he personally organized the sample gun production. As long as the trial production is completed, the filing will be immediately filed with the patent management department to ensure that the Klumber Heisen family enjoys the patent rights of this new weapon. In terms of caliber, Weiss set two calibers for this automated weapon, 1.4pir and 3.2pir. The former is matched with the 9mm pointed bullet of the new sniper rifle, and 2 soldiers can carry and operate it, while the latter is matched with the standard cone bullet of the Grumman M3.2 rifle, which is large in size and powerful, and requires 3-4 soldiers to carry and operate it.

After communicating with Jose and others about the above matters, Weiss was able to take Bella out for a walk. In a typical industrial city like Ao City, where there is more or less, there is less. The two first went straight to the amusement park, took a Ferris wheel, rode a hot air balloon, watched circus performances, and played various games for a long time. Then they switched to the Grumman Building, where they had a delicious dinner, and then went shopping in the commercial area. This time, Bella did not be polite to Weiss, and spent two thousand yuan in food and buying, and gave him all the scholarships he received last semester.

After a pleasant purchase, Bella jumped in front, and Weiss followed behind in big bags and small bags, and was about to leave the Grumman Building and return to his residence when he met an acquaintance... Bella's vocal teacher Gunnievil Grumman, and the "Baston Goddess" who was dressed in casual clothes and could not hide his heroic posture - the field combat instructor Octavell Grumman.

"Miss Grumman? It's really you!"

"Oh, it's Bella! The holiday should be very pleasant!"

"Well, it's not bad! By the way, this is Long Klumber Heisen, my brother, you've seen it!"

"Yes. Mr. Klumber Heisen, I'm glad to meet again."

"I'm glad to see you, Miss Grumman!" Weiss put down his things and greeted the Miss Grumman politely, then saluted the female instructor beside her in an attentive manner: "Hello, instructor, student Long Klumber Heisen pays tribute to you!"

A year ago, it was also in this Grumman Building that Weiss met the two Miss Grumman for the first time in an unexpected and embarrassing way. A year has passed and he has gone through a lot of hardships to achieve a gorgeous turn from a poor student to a top student, and has changed from a notorious "storm" to a famous celebrity. In Octavell Grumman's field combat course, Weiss has repeatedly performed outstandingly and won excellent results with indisputable strength. Because of this, he was able to stand in front of the two Miss Grumman with his head held high and talk to them in a full tone.

Octavell glanced at Bella, who was wearing pink: "No wonder Joseph said during dinner that he sent someone to the Baston Military Academy to find you today, but he couldn't find it. So that's it."

Joseph Grumman is the name of fat vice president. It is not surprising that he looks for himself in private. What is strange is that this time is obviously out of "business". Therefore, Weiss said curiously: "Look for me?"

Octavellily replied: "The Norman Empire's Industrial Alliance Visitors will arrive in October City tomorrow. Egweed took a telegram at noon today. He contacted the visitor with the official federal reception team. One of the three major industrial giants of the Norman Empire, the Karenbis Group, whose main business is military manufacturing, is interested in cooperating with us to develop a new generation of firearms and artillery. Therefore, Egweed suggested that we gather the group's best gun artillery designers to see what results can be found with the Karenbis Group. Then, the president named your name, so you should understand!"
