Bab 319: Chapter 8 Look at this cannon, it's thick and long

General Sergey shoved a brick-like object that reminded Wang Zhong of an "encyclopedia" into his hands, "For you."

Wang Zhong looked at the book, pondered for a moment, and then set it aside, saying to Sergey, "I'll take a copy of this back with me for a detailed review. Could you recommend some excellent artillery pieces?"

General Sergey replied, "Isn't the 57mm gun used on the current ZIS-30 good enough? We were actually planning to shut down the production line for the 57 and switch to mass-producing the 76mm ZIS-3."

Wang Zhong responded, "That piece is indeed good, but the barrel is a bit heavy."

The Ante Army actually had two calibers of 76mm guns: one was the ZIS-3 anti-tank gun, generally equipped in the Anti-tank Battalion, and the other was a 76mm infantry gun equipped by the infantry troops—this gun used the carriage of a 45mm anti-tank gun.
