Chapter 178: The Triangular Thorn (Part II)
It's no wonder that Lao Ge would behave like this, but the victory in this battle also made him really turn around......
Since the official establishment of the Type 50 automatic rifle, the related supporting equipment around the gun has also begun to be gradually developed, such as grenades for surface killing, as well as related components for firearm maintenance. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
As the most relied on melee combat equipment of our army, the bayonet is naturally indispensable, but this seemingly inconspicuous cold weapon equipment has made the developers of the Type 50 automatic rifle such as Ling De Baiyi very troubled, you must know that our army has attached great importance to white-knuckle warfare since the establishment of the army.
After more than ten years of summary and improvement, to the Liberation War period, our army according to the traditional Chinese martial arts, combined with the Japanese army's stabbing skills during the Anti-Japanese War, created a set of unique bayonet fighting techniques, and played an important role in the later stage of the Liberation War, not to mention that fighting bayonets not only means the final determination, but also the courage of an army to dare to face a strong enemy, so in the army often a sentence "bayonet sees red", is a symbol of daring to fight, good fighting.
Because of this, the small bayonet has become an important weapon no less than firearms and grenades, so in the development process of the matching bayonet of the Type 50 automatic rifle, it has received unanimous attention from the military leaders, and Bai Yi and others are naturally clear about this, so they have invested a lot of experience in the development of this equipment.
Originally, according to Bai Yi's original plan, the new bayonet should be a multi-purpose bayonet, which can not only be used to fight, but also to chop and saw, and if necessary, it can also be used as a construction tool for field fortifications.
This set of ideas was good and in line with the development trend of bayonets, but when it was actually implemented, it was found that this program did not work at all in China in the early 50s of the 20th century, for no other reason than that it could not meet the requirements of multi-purpose bayonets either in terms of materials or manufacturing processes.
To know that the reason why the multi-purpose bayonet can be multi-functional, super hardness and unparalleled durability are indispensable basic indicators, but to achieve this hardness and durability, the selection of materials, the processing of smelting, the fineness of forging and the exquisite treatment of heat treatment can be said to be indispensable, otherwise the knife made is not easy to break, or easy to rust and corrode.
All in all, a bayonet contains more than 10 disciplines and techniques, there are no less than 10 items, take the most basic materials, the steel used is basically low carbon alloy steel with high hardness, if not, the bayonet is easy to break when stabbing, the usual training is good, if you really go to the battlefield, the end of the bayonet is likely to be the casualties of your own soldiers.
Because of this, the steel used by the major military powers for the manufacture of bayonets is not the steel model with outstanding performance in the country, and even some countries simply take the cannon steel or armor steel for the forging of bayonets, while China at this time is not to mention the advanced performance of artillery steel and armor steel, even the most common low-carbon alloy steel can not be mass-produced.
What's more, there are also refining and forging in the later stage and complicated heat treatment, it can be said that every process is like a roadblock, becoming a mountain that China looks up to at the moment, so the multi-purpose bayonet has not yet been implemented, and it is stillborn under one bottleneck after another. So Bai Yi decisively gave up the multi-purpose bayonet plan, and then proposed a new plan that was more suitable for the period, that is, today's three-edged military stabbing plan.
Compared with the multi-purpose bayonet scheme, the triangular military stabbing scheme has a very good overall structural strength due to the unique triangular conical deconstruction, which can reduce the quality requirements of the steel. The slender shape of the spur and blood groove is convenient for forging and saves valuable steel.
In terms of the manufacturing process, thanks to the reduced quality of the steel, forging and heat treatment have become correspondingly simpler. As for the most important lethality, thanks to the unique structure of the triangular blood trough and the addition of arsenic during heat treatment, the lethality of the triangular military thorn is not weaker than that of ordinary bayonets, but in some aspects it is much stronger.
In particular, the wound caused by the stabbing of the army seems to be small but it is square, and the sides of the wound cannot be squeezed against each other to achieve a certain hemostasis and healing effect, and it is not in the harsh field environment, once the front-line troops lacking professional medical equipment encounter the bayonet wound, they cannot be bandaged at all.
What's more, in the usual stabbing, it is not that the bayonet is pierced into the opponent's body and everything is fine, and it is often rotated hard, and this process can easily cause the rupture of the tendon tissue in the opponent's body, the collapse of blood vessels, and the damage of internal organs, so that even if the broken wound can be sutured, the internal damage is still very fatal, coupled with the cavity effect of the triangular blood trough and the poisoning interference of arsenic, the lethality of the triangular military thorn is still quite amazing.
It's just that such a "big killing weapon" with scarce materials and simple craftsmanship but full of lethality attracted a lot of criticism at the beginning of its development, for no other reason, just because this kind of three-edged military stab simply subverts ordinary people's understanding of bayonets, and many military cadres think that Bai Yi's three-edged military spur cannot meet the basic principle of the army's bayonet seeing red.
In this regard, Lao Ge has always supported Bai Yi, as for the reason is simple and simple, that is, every thing that Lao Bai has made is useless, because of this, when Baiyun Factory transported a batch of triangular army to the front line, and the other troops disdained it, Lao Ge tried his best to override public opinion and put it in his own heavy firepower company.
The soldiers of the heavy firepower company did not have no objections to this, but they were pressed down by Lao Ge, who has always been strong, but the pressure is under pressure, and Lao Ge has no bottom in his heart about the actual combat effect of the three-edged army thorn. It wasn't until this raid on Feiyunling that Lao Ge was greatly relieved, only to feel that his choice was too correct, so Lao Ge, who was a little carried away, laughed so loudly that he was about to crack to the root of his ears, and the pressure all over his body was irrepressible.
This is also the old Ge who loves to show off, if Bai Yi is here, it will definitely not be like this, because he, a graduate student of military equipment who has traveled through his previous life, has long expected this result, joke, this kind of three-edged military thorn is the most classic cold weapon equipment of our army, which has not fallen down after more than 20 years, and has become a classic that future generations worship.
With such an artifact in hand, coupled with the kind of stabbing skills honed on the battlefield by our army at the moment, it is not an exaggeration to achieve a one-sided victory over the Turkish army.
It's just that the modest Bai Yi is not here, so he can only let Lao Ge vent his anger well, but just when Lao Ge was complacent about his correct decision, a telegram from his superiors swept away his compulsion, and replaced it with an indescribable decision, because the real battle of life and death had just begun......
