Save steel for big undertakings in section 150

But this was not a real train cannon, but rather a beggar's version of a prototype train cannon. In fact, these C80 howitzers were all towed artillery, equipped with wheels.

Tang Mo had only produced some flatbed train cars and then simply fixed these artillery pieces onto them.

This maximized the flexibility of using these cannons but sacrificed the protective capability of the train cannon.

In theory, Tang Mo could have created an armored train by mounting cannons and various weapons on it to surprise the enemy.

However, it should be noted that armored trains consumed a significant amount of steel and also had great limitations in their use; in actuality, Tang Mo could not fully exploit the advantages of armored trains.

In comparison, conserving steel was a practice more in line with Tang Mo's current situation. After all, he now had to allocate his limited steel production capacity to more useful places.
