146. "Gun gas" kills
Later, in the later stage of the Anti-Japanese War, some of the three dogs and their classmates were able to survive and grow into middle and senior commanders, so they had the opportunity to realize this defensive and offensive tactics.
The tactics of the offensive Lao Hei will talk about in the future, what kind of shield can be made, you can make a cracked spear, and Qin Yuanshan will have the opportunity to use it in the 36th Division in the future, for example, when he participated in the expeditionary force, he participated in the battle of Songshan, and used these advanced defense-breaking tactics.
And Sangou, in the subsequent Battle of Songhu, was initially applied to the small single positional defense tactics, although it had no impact on the entire battle situation, but finally in the place of the flesh mill, it was very successful to be able to survive with a group of brothers.
It's just that, in the eyes of Lao Hei, the top brass of the military is too stubborn, and if he had adopted his theory of a large-depth defense system earlier, he would have built a defensive position in depth that stretched for hundreds of miles between the water towns and hilly areas south of the Yangtze River from Shanghai to Nanjing.
And gradually retreat, step by step attrition, the introduction of the powerful Japanese army into a large depth of intricate defense of multiple defensive positions composed of each other, even if it cannot be killed, drag the Japanese army to death, and finally repel the Japanese army is not impossible.
It's just that, in the eyes of our readers' times, belong to an afterthought, but for that time, Lao Hei was indeed a very high-level tactical expert, but unfortunately he didn't meet Huai Cai.
In the middle of the Anti-Japanese War, because of Lao Hei's suggestion, it brought inspiration to the later General Xue Yue, and also brought the pinnacle of General Xue's military career.
General Xue commanded, and the three dogs participated in the Wanjialing victory; There are also several successes in the Battle of Changsha, known as the "Heavenly Furnace Tactics", which are similar to Lao Hei's tactics; Hindsight is also powerful.
……
Because it was necessary to talk about the course of firepower equipment and cooperative protection of defensive positions, Lao Hei, who was the chief instructor and tactical instructor, also called Li Zhenxiong, an instructor of firearms, to intersperse the teaching of weapons.
Weapons, as the name suggests, are weapons.
As an infantryman, the most common weapon is the rifle, which belongs to the standard configuration of the infantry, and the rifle has been explained in detail at the stage of enlistment education, and everyone has also been trained to disassemble and wipe the gun, shoot and stab.
In addition to rifles, there are also pistols, as the second year students who have passed the assessment and entered the sub-study, they are at least a second lieutenant after graduation, which is considered the lowest level of officer, and if it is a combat unit, it needs to be equipped with a pistol.
A pistol, first and foremost a hand-to-hand weapon of self-defense (mostly with an effective range of 50 meters), or a last-ditch weapon, is also a status symbol, as ordinary soldiers are not issued with pistols.
In the hands of junior officers, the pistol is also a tool when commanding, similar to a baton or something, in the position of four or five hundred meters or even thousands of meters away from the enemy, the pistol has almost no killing function, just an ornament.
Note: In film and television dramas, there are many scenes, in positional battles, those officers or protagonists with pistols and shell guns or something, together with soldiers, shoot at the enemy with rifles and machine guns, and kill the enemy one by one, which is very stylish.
In fact, there is a great irrationality in this, first of all, the effective range of the pistol is 50 meters, and the rifle reaches 400 meters away, how to shoot? Pistols are used unless they are encounters, trench battles, melee combat, etc.
In normal offensive warfare, once the infantry moves or charges into the 50-meter area of the enemy, it is almost immediately about to throw grenades, and the grenade does not need to be accurately aimed, and a large area is thrown and exploded, who still uses a single-shot rifle to hit a moving target? Unless there are infantry with repeating weapons such as submachine guns, machine guns, etc.
After throwing the grenade, you are almost face to face, and you will soon have to use the bayonet to stab, who has the time to press the bullet, aim, and fire, and when you have not finished these actions, you have already been pierced in half by the enemy's bayonet.
In positional warfare versus offensive battles, shooting at each other with a pistol and a rifle, this person either has a problem with his brain or does not understand the performance of the pistol (is it possible that a soldier with a pistol does not even know the performance of the pistol?). Or they are cowardly and shoot themselves to be emboldened.
It's like in ancient times, you held a one-foot-long short sword, and someone else held a two-meter-long spear to stab, others stabbed countless guns, but they couldn't stab you, your one-foot-long short sword, but the sword killed people, could it be that you have superpowers, or extraordinary internal strength, and use sword energy to kill?
In modern film and television dramas, a soldier takes a pistol and shoots the enemy one by one in a positional battle three or four hundred meters away from the enemy, which can only be explained as having superpowers and can kill people with "gun gas".
……
In the hands of senior officers, pistols are more of a tool for self-sacrifice (suicide), and senior officers no longer need to go into battle to fight, and they are basically useless for self-defense, because they are equipped with guards.
Why a self-cutting tool? Because senior officers belong to one of the souls of a certain army, representing the honor and symbol of this army, if all senior officers are required to use pistols, the situation is already very critical.
At the last critical moment, he would rather die under his pistol than be captured by the enemy, which is not only his greatest shame, but also the greatest shame of his own troops, and also the shame of the military circles.
The honor of a soldier, the honor of a senior officer, and the honor of the army are often above everything else, even higher than their own lives, so it is necessary to equip senior officers with self-made pistols in case they are not needed.
Similarly, officers who graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy will have a short sword given by the principal, called "Zhongzheng Sword", also called "Chengren Sword", and some officers committed suicide on the battlefield with this sword, which was later called "military soul".
During the Anti-Japanese War, many soldiers would end up leaving a grenade or bullet for themselves, which was called a "suicide bullet", and the pistol of a senior officer could be called an "honor gun".
Of course, many times this is just wishful thinking or thinking, and in the War of Resistance, there were very few high-ranking officers who committed suicide, but there were many high-ranking officers who defected to the enemy.
There are not many soldiers who commit suicide, but many of them die in battle with junior officers, and some of the senior officers do not retreat, relatively speaking, very few.
……
There were many kinds of pistols in the army, but in the warlord era, they went their own way, and the procurement of weapons was also varied, and the import of pistols alone was very diverse.
The more common ones are: German Mauser 1896, 1910, 1914, 1934, Belgian Browning 1900, 1910, 1922, Browning Strong, Spanish Astra 1921, American Colt 1903, 1911, 1917, American Savage 1907, 1917, etc.
Imitations include Hanyang imitation rupee pistol, No. 32 revolver (imitation of the American .32 gun), imitation of the American .38 gun, imitation of the Browning 1900 type, etc., and some warlord arsenal imitation pistols that I don't know where or unknown.
There are a lot of home-made ones, many of which can't be named, and most of them have poor performance, such as solo pistols, old guns that can only break the pressure bullet after one shot, and unrifled smoothbore guns, and often blind fire without sound; This kind of pistol is more often used by the peasants in the armament.
