i remember them.Poland made them after ww1,and Russia mass produced 152mm version.fun thing - after german help,they developed it into new soviet 152mm howitzers used during WW2.The 155 were French schneiders built for imperial Russia I'll have to be home in order to actually pull the specifics but they're very good guns
Practically all soviet guns were french construction improved by germans after WW2,yet they still claimed it as their own weapon....
Well,not all,37mm and 25mm AA were copies of Bofors,and 46mm AT gun copy of german PAK 36 with bigger caliber.
Only oryginal construction was 40mm automatic grenade launcher - who was not produced,becouse engineer who made it was killed in purges.
your China could do the same - buy french 155mm howitzer,develop them using Krupp ideas/longer barrel,bigger chamber,etc/ and get modern 155mm howitzer for WW2.
