"If our troops want to achieve mobility, the previous bicycles must be eliminated. Therefore, we must vigorously develop military motorcycles." Looking at the neat workshop and the assembly workers on the production line, hilrick and the people around him said.

Here is the famous BMW company in the future!

German craftsmanship is not for nothing. It can be found that many of the world's famous automobile manufacturers are German! At the same time, many famous people were born.

For example, Gottlieb Daimler and Carl Benz founded Mercedes and Mercedes Benz respectively, and recently merged into one company. Auguste Horsch is the founder of Audi's predecessor automobile alliance, Ferdinand Porsche, and the founder of the famous Porsche company.

However, BMW, one of the three luxury brands, rarely mentioned its founder.

If you studied thermodynamics in college, you can clearly know "Otto cycle", which is the most common form of internal combustion engine cycle. And this Otto is the name of the person, the name of the founder of BMW!

Gustav Otto is the greatest aircraft manufacturing expert in German history, and his father Nicholas Auguste Otto is the famous inventor of Otto internal combustion engine. In 1876, he produced the first four stroke cycle engine in human history!

In 1913, Otto and his son established a Bavarian engine manufacturing plant in Munich. At that time, they mainly produced aircraft engines. A few years later, BMW was registered and established. The symbol of blue sky and white clouds has been used in future generations and has become an artifact to flirt with girls.

Unfortunately, after World War I, according to the Treaty of Versailles, Germany will not be able to produce any military aircraft, let alone aircraft engines. Therefore, BMW can only change.

In 1922, BMW began to produce motorcycle engines. In the early days, they only supplied engines for British motorcycle brands such as Victoria.

A year later, the first BMW motorcycle was born, which is the cross era R32!

This kind of motorcycle was successfully developed in only five weeks. It has the world's first horizontal opposed engine, and it is also the world's first motorcycle with shaft transmission!

Since then, the shaft transmission design has become one of the most famous features of BMW motorcycle!

The maximum speed of R32 can reach 90 km / h. compared with motorcycles of other manufacturers, it may not be very fast, but its durability is quite strong. Especially in many competitions, it can win by virtue of durability, because other motorcycles break up before completing the competition!

Now, although BMW has entered the field of automobile production, its motorcycle production is still its main business. Now, with the development of the army, BMW's motorcycle development will also enter a new stage!

Now, as a colonel, he works in the weapons and equipment department and can be responsible for almost all the weapons and equipment of the German army, which is also related to his previous bedding.

Panther tanks, battleships, aircraft carriers, all started with the intervention of Shrek. Therefore, it is most appropriate for Shrek to take charge of these.

After taking up this position, Shrek put forward many other ideas in addition to the assembly line production of panther tanks.

For example, about getting motorcycles into the army!

After World War I, Germany became a defeated country. In addition to the significant reduction in the size of the army, due to the deterioration of the national economy, the equipment renewal of the German army is also quite slow, so that many armies are still equipped with bicycles as a means of transportation!

Of course, bicycles can not really be used as military equipment. Think of the German army conquering Moscow by bicycles. Sirik is absolutely drunk. Therefore, we must develop new means of transportation to replace bicycles!

What's best?

Motorcycles, of course!

In later films, you can usually see German soldiers galloping on the field on pianyuzi. Motorcycles also play a great role in the army.

Before each attack, the motorcycle reconnaissance unit is often the forerunner of the whole attack sequence. The motorcycle shape is smaller than other vehicles, which is easy to hide. Carrying machine guns on the pianyuzi also gives it good combat performance and can provide fire support to its own infantry. Among all kinds of mechanized armies in Germany, motorcycles are heavily equipped, which is cheap after all.

At the same time, the motorcycle can also be used for various other purposes. For example, it is an important equipment of the German communication force. Riding it, you can quickly convey battle orders among the moving combat forces.

When the radio equipment is loaded on the vehicle, it becomes a communication command vehicle; In the war front, it is an ideal vehicle for rapid rescue and transportation of the wounded.

The heavy military motorcycle has large traction force and is equipped with a special tractor. It is an ammunition / supply transport vehicle; If necessary, it can also act as a tractor and tow some light artillery!

It can be said that one car can do more.

Of course, the off-road capability of motorcycles is not as good as that of tracked vehicles. However, at this stage, it is necessary to equip various armies with a large number of motorcycles.

Shrek takes this seriously.

For BMW, this is a good development opportunity!

After receiving the above order, BMW quickly carried out the corresponding research and development. It took two months to manufacture the BMW R75 motorcycle in front of us!

"Colonel Shrek, this is the latest military motorcycle developed by our BMW company." Next to Shrek was Fritz, the chief engineer of BMW. He introduced the motorcycle to Shrek.

"According to the original mechanical indicators, our motorcycle has a displacement of 746 ml, a power of 26 HP, a two cylinder air-cooled engine, a four speed gearbox, reverse gear and a maximum speed of 95 kilometers per hour."

This motorcycle looks quite rough. The first thing that attracts people's attention is not the steel pipe frame, nor the spoke wheel, not the powerful exhaust pipe, but the seat.

Yes, from the perspective of future generations, the first thing to see is the seat, because it is the most primitive bicycle seat!

It certainly doesn't look as comfortable as the foreskin of later sponge seats, but if you sit on it

In the eye of everyone, Shrek stepped up and felt the same as riding a large row in later generations.

Yes, this is an absolute large displacement!

Although it doesn't look very good, when you sit on it, you can feel that it is still very ergonomic. In addition to the brake above the front handle, the rotating shaft is outside.
