"General, please forgive my offense. Are these the real parameters? How could the French increase their firing rate to such a high level?”Major Carl questioned after his surprise.

In the eyes of most people, it was almost impossible for a cannon to fire 15 rounds per minute.

"Major, this is absolutely true. The reason why the French M1897 75mm field cannon could have such a terrifying firing rate was entirely because they used a special device called the hydraulic recoil mechanism. This greatly reduced the recoil of the cannon and increased the firing speed!”

"A hydraulic recoil mechanism?" Major Carl muttered to himself.

"If it's possible, I can simply draw this device.”

The eyes of Major Carl and Minister Harhausen lit up.

If he could get the blueprint of this device, with the industrial strength of the country, it would be easy to replicate it.

However, Yuan Baocen did not start writing. Instead, he looked at them with a smile.

Minister Harhausen immediately understood.

"General, as long as this device is proven to be useful, the country will provide you with free aid for the weapons you purchased this time!”Minister Harhausen immediately said.

Even though he wasn't a soldier, he knew what it would mean for the German army if the French were equipped with a large number of field cannons with such terrifying firing rates. When the German army attacked, they could use concentrated artillery fire to tear the brave soldiers of the country into pieces.

"Very good, I believe in Your Excellency!”

In his previous life, as an artillery staff officer, Yuan Baocen was very interested in these devices.

He picked up the pen and drew a simple hydraulic recoil mechanism on the paper.

"This is just a simple blueprint. I haven't marked out some parameters. When the firearms I need arrive, I will mark the parameters one by one.”Yuan Baocen also held back.

"Minister, it should be true.”

" Yes." Minister Harhausen nodded." General, I will report to the country immediately." The firearms you need will arrive in a month at the earliest.”

Minister Harhausen hesitated for a moment and nodded.""No problem at all!"

"Then we'll have a good cooperation."

Yuan Baocen's face was full of smiles. To be able to exchange the technical specifications of the French M1897 75mm field cannon for weapons and equipment worth 20 million marks was undoubtedly a very cost-effective deal.

The money he got from Wang Pinqing could be used in other areas.

If the French could grasp the performance parameters of the weapons and equipment of the French army before the war, then they would have a huge advantage. It would even allow the German Empire to defeat France at the lowest cost.

Then, Yuan Baocen sold all the specifications of the various types of rifles, machine guns, and artillery of the French army to the people of Dé. He hoped that after the outbreak of World War I, the country would be able to make a breakthrough in France. In that case, the European powers would be able to shed more blood in the war. Not only would this allow China to make more money from the war in the future, but it would also further weaken the European powers and create an opportunity for China to rise.

However, this time, he did not ask for money or weapons. Instead, he hoped that the country could provide equipment and technology to help him build a medium-sized arsenal that could produce rifles and artillery.

Buying weapons from outside was always controlled by others. It would be best if they could produce and develop their own weapons.

Minister Harhausen agreed in principle to Yuan Baocen's request, but the specifics had to be decided within the country.

He believed that the French side would not refuse. This would give the country an advantage in future wars.

Yuan Baocen was also very satisfied. If he could build an arsenal with the help of the Germans to satisfy his own weapons and ammunition consumption, it would be a great improvement!

In the future, he could expand the scale. This way, not only would they not need to buy weapons and ammunition, they could save a lot of money and would not have to be held back by the foreign powers.

When a war broke out in the future, they would have the confidence to continue fighting.

"The people of the country are so easy to talk to. Should we trick them again and get more benefits from them?”Yuan Baocen suddenly had this thought.
