Jingshi, Luoyang.

"Don't tell me about Han Zhoumu. I've listened to it all day, and my ears are tired. Cao Cao waved his hand and said. When Cao Cao saw the newspaper in Xi Zhicai's hand, he knew what he was talking about. It happened three days ago. There was a large explosion in the toilet of Han Fu's mansion.

The toilet was chosen because it was relatively remote and at the same time, it was convenient for the IRA intelligence to infiltrate. Because the development of Julu's Republican Army intelligence network is not too smooth, they can only enter it through logistics, and it is difficult for them to enter the core office area of the government office. So, it can only be placed there.

The intelligence services were surprised when they received the order from above, but they immediately carried out such a mission. After all, this task is still easy for them to do in such situations.

The spy personnel thought very clearly, people must go to the toilet, and if they can blow up the other party in the toilet, it is also possible.

But for the spies, this is very difficult, first of all, their ** technology content is very low, after igniting **, they must leave as soon as possible. At most, it is put together with incense to prolong the time. Therefore, it is a big challenge to be able to accurately blow up Han Fu.

As a result, after the explosion, it only killed a few scribes in the peripheral office. Although Han Fu was not killed or injured by the explosion, he was also completely scared out of his soul. It is rumored that when he heard the sound of a huge explosion, Han Fu was incontinent for a while. The explosion paralyzed him. Can't stand up at all.

After the incident, the IRA did not admit it. Moreover, it was a matter of denying it, and the IRA spokesman only said that it was an act of personal revenge that was purely accidental. It has nothing to do with the Republican Army at all. The fact that the IRA doesn't admit it doesn't mean that others won't think that way.

When the civil officials of the imperial court, who represented the bureaucracy, heard about this, they were the first to attack. They went so far as to write a whole bunch of articles blaming the Republican Army, some of which were reasonable reasoning. First of all, individuals are not capable of getting a large number of **. Because the folk do not know the specific formula ratio. Even if you get it, the effect is very poor. Completely incomparable with the army. And the power of this explosion is huge. Extrapolating from this alone, only the IRA is capable of doing this. Because this is too easy for the Republican Army. The second is the recent dynamics, Han Fu continues to suppress the Republican Army on trade issues, and the Republican Army has a reason and motive to do it.

The third point is to proceed from some specific reconnaissance angles. For example, the spies on the periphery, the Republican Army often does this, because you don't know at all, that is the Republican Army's spy personnel, and they infiltrate very badly.

This is the result of inference, but some civilian officials, who do not care about this at all, believe that this move of the IRA is a provocation. It is an open contempt for the world's readers. Challenge.

Therefore, the civilian and official groups attacked it en masse. They insulted the IRA for its injustice.

Cao Cao's invective made Cao Cao very annoyed. I even think it's ridiculous.

"That group of civilian officials, can they scold the Republican Army to death with such abuse?" Cao Cao laughed after speaking. For the situation of civil officials, Cao Cao looked down on him very much. Because the other party did something not very good.

"This must have been done by the Republican Army." Xi Zhicai said.

"Well, that's what the IRA did, so what? Do we get to scold each other to death with spit? The republican army can put ** in the toilet of the government office, or put ** in Luoyang. Luoyang is already under immediate threat. And the IRA is the greatest threat, and in such a situation, it poses a great threat to us. Cao Cao said.

"There will be more trade frictions in the future, and the IRA is using force and trade to open up their so-called markets. Trap each other later. Difficult. Xi Zhicai shook his head and said.

The civil servants don't see that at all, and maybe they see it, but they want to be able to do something else to make up for it. They only see the contradictions that show the Republican Army, but behind these contradictions are deeper economic problems.

The republican army is constantly expanding, and the economic capacity of the imperial court is being absorbed by the republican army little by little, although there is only one blatant attack, but the contradiction behind it is the biggest problem.

That's why Cao Cao felt ridiculous. And Xi Zhicai seemed a little weak in the face of such an analysis, because he knew very well that no one on either side could change such a situation, and this was what they were most helpless about at present.

Lijiazhuang, military academy.

"Did you hear that? The IRA simply sent a large group of snipers, no more than 500 in number, to block and harass the state soldiers. A student said excitedly as soon as he sat down in the cafeteria.

"This has been studied in the classroom. Five hundred people is still too few, and besides, the firearms used are all used as soldiers, and the power is insufficient, that is, the special related firearms, the power is still insufficient, we should see that we need more powerful things, to increase the range, haven't you heard? The instructors have already said the parameters of the relevant weapons. I don't think it's enough at all. Another student said.

"Cao Ang, tell me about it. The instructor listens to you, and your ideas are all good. Let's talk about it. What do you think? A student said to Cao Ang, because every time Cao Ang came to the cafeteria, he sat on the side and ate hard. Despite the large amount of food that served as a soldier, Cao Ang was really able to eat for a long time. During meals, he rarely takes the initiative to speak.

"Me?" Cao Ang looked up and asked. He usually up his ears and listens. Seldom take the initiative to speak.

"Well, it's you, every time you're eating." The students looked at Cao Ang, Cao Ang's performance was very good, and he belonged to the kind of active and studious kind. Because of the lack of reading and the lack of a certain foundation, these students recommended by the big soldiers have a relatively poor learning foundation, which directly leads to their lack of activity in terms of understanding. Cao Ang, on the other hand, is very relaxed about his studies. It's easy to get a very high score. Not only that, but in his spare time, he was able to see many, many other books to supplement his experience. For other students, it takes a long time to complete their studies, and they don't have any extra time to read extracurricular books.

Cao Ang may not know it, but he has become a scholar before he knows it.

"Well, my opinion is that the sniper tactics are not mature enough, the tactics are good, but there must be a large force as a support, which can suppress the state soldiers and make it difficult to move, you know, the state soldiers are difficult to deal with. Their cavalry, tactics, and tactics were very experienced, and they fought against the northern nomads for a long time. There is no doubt about this. If you simply use sniper troops, first of all, the firepower is relatively weak, although it is locally powerful, but in fact, it is simply impossible to reach a favorable place, and most importantly, there are other things that need to be accomplished. For example, further advances in firearms. Cao Ang said his immature thoughts. Cao Ang was thinking about the thoughts of all parties during the meal, and it was the first time he had expressed his views like this today.

"Well, let's talk about it." The students said one after another.

"My idea is that in the case of insufficient firepower, a light gun can be used, and the firing range of the gun is enough, and the power is enough. The main use is a light small cannon, which can run when hit, or a more convenient artillery, the kind of artillery that can be fired at one time, pose a threat to the opponent, and then quickly retreat, so that the power will be very great. It is easy to cause large losses to the other party, and in such a situation, our advantage will be very large. Cao Ang said.

"With artillery, isn't it too expensive?" One of the students said worriedly.

"However, you should see that the current lack of firepower is a big, big problem, and if this problem is not solved, other problems really cannot be solved." Cao Ang also said helplessly.

The sniper tactics were effective, but not very effective, because according to the preliminary situation of the front-line response, more than three hundred people were sent out for the first time. Half of it was lost. Most of the rest survived by hiding their intentions. At first, it was effective, but soon, because of the initiative of the state soldiers, the losses were heavy, and the tactics came to a standstill.

Cao Ang's analysis is correct, sniper tactics are a tactic that can suppress the opponent's use in the case of equal strength, and at the same time, in the initial shooting effect, a lot of problems are exposed, the range of sniper weapons is too close, and the farthest is only more than 100 steps. That's a long enough distance. But it's still too close, and if it can be extended to a distance of more than 800 paces, this effect is very good.

However, of all the weapons used in the army, there is no such weapon at all, and the only way is to use artillery with sufficient range and power, and heavy artillery is obviously excluded. Because he needs more covering forces, which is obviously unrealistic. And the only way is to use light artillery, he can run fast, he has enough power, and most importantly, the distance is safe enough, which is the most important thing.

Obviously, Cao Ang saw such a point, but if they want to do this, it is still not enough, they still need to learn a lot of things. Sniper tactics are still not mature enough. After all, he just started.
