Chapter 438: Straighten Your Back Forever

After having one of the fighters fetch his machine gun, the platoon commander unfolded his jacket and spread it on the ground, also cleanly, disassembling the Czech machine gun he was using into parts. However, before the competition, the machine gun platoon leader said: "You are a machine gunner, and you know that you can encounter any situation on the battlefield." ”

"We are poorly equipped, and light machine guns are the main support firepower of the front-line troops. The Eighth Route Army is also good at night fighting, so it is nothing to troubleshoot machine guns during the day, but as a qualified machine gunner, you must also be able to do it at night. So, the two of us had people blindfold themselves to simulate a dark situation, and we were combining the machine guns in our hands. ”

This platoon commander put forward this condition, and even including Ma Yongcheng, everyone thought that it was somewhat embarrassing. Assembling a light machine gun with blindfolds can be said to be quite difficult to do. Only someone who knows every part of the machine gun in his opponent knows everything about it.

Moreover, the platoon commander not only offered to blindfold him, but even asked someone to bring over a Belgian machine gun, as well as all kinds of seventy-nine bullets equipped in the troops. At present, the troops have three kinds of 79 bullets, one is a round-nosed bullet for Hanyang-made and Gong-made 79-made rifles, and the other is a 79-pointed bullet for Czech, Zhongcheng, and Belgian-made rifles.

There is also a type of ammunition that is specially used for Czech machine guns, as well as the heavy machine guns captured this time. The appearance of the former 79 bullet and the latter two bullets is obviously different. However, there is basically no difference between the latter two bullets in appearance, and the only way to distinguish them is by the combination of the chamber or the feel of the machine gunner.

However, the Czech style generally uses heavy pointed bullets except that there is really no other option. Of course, it's not that light-tipped bullets can't be used, but when using light-tipped ammunition, the muzzle flame is obvious, and the accuracy is greatly reduced. As for Hanyang-made rifle cartridges, Czech machine guns simply cannot be used.

This was extremely challenging, as the Czech machine gun was very picky about bullets, despite its good performance. Only seven or nine pointed bullets can be used, and the requirements for the bullet craftsmanship are very high. Only bullets made in regular arsenals can be used, and even if the caliber of ordinary miscellaneous bullets is appropriate, as long as the accuracy is slightly insufficient when manufactured, it will cause machine gun jamming.

Before fighting, it is generally necessary to close the bullet. Bullets that can be closed are pressed into the magazine, and bullets that cannot be closed are handed over to the rifle for use. He mixes several bullets together, which means that he has to use them to close his chamber while blindfolded, which is no less difficult than assembling two different machine guns at the same time.

However, he was also a bit of a trick, and the Czech machine gun was picky about bullets. However, Belgian-made machine guns are far less picky about bullets. As long as it is a 79 caliber pointed bullet, it can be used, and even a 79 round head bullet can be used when necessary. It's just that there is a danger that it may get stuck, but the chances are not great.

After disassembling the Belgian machine gun into parts, it was mixed with the Czech parts in front of him. After mixing ordinary rifle bullets with Czech machine gun bullets, he looked at Wang Dong with a provocative eye: "If you're afraid, I'll let you take a step." You and I are blindfolded, I assemble these two machine guns, and you can just assemble this Czech one. ”

Although Wang Dong was somewhat hesitant about his opponent's provocative approach, he gritted his teeth and accepted the challenge. However, he also asked someone to take another Czech machine gun and disassemble it, mix it with his own Czech machine gun parts, and also mix several kinds of seven or nine bullets together: "I don't take advantage of you, but I haven't used a Belgian machine gun, I use two Czech ones to compare with you." ”

After that, he squatted on the ground and took the lead in letting people blindfold themselves. And the platoon commander didn't say anything, just smiled and blindfolded Wang Dong's deputy shooter. After holding his watch in his hand, Li Ziyuan, who acted as the referee, shouted to start. The two blindfolded men immediately began to quickly assemble the machine gun while fumbling for parts.

However, in terms of difficulty, the machine gun platoon commander was significantly more difficult to assemble. Because he assembled two machine guns with completely different structures except for the caliber. Although the shape of the magazines of the two is somewhat similar, the reload is 20 rounds, which can easily be confused by the feel alone.

The difference between the two can only be appreciated by groping for the subtle differences between the supply ports. And it is impossible for both magazines to be universal at all, if a Czech machine gun is equipped with a magazine for a Belgian machine gun, there will be only one result, which is to cause some damage to the gun itself. To do this, you need to have a certain amount of confidence.

But it was clear that for this platoon commander, the performance and construction of both machine guns were well understood. He didn't decide to assemble the machine gun first, but first touched the machine gun* and assembled the one first. The first thing he touched was the Czech machine gun*, and he quickly found the corresponding parts by feel.

I saw him dragging the Czech machine gun with one hand, and with his own hand alone, he constantly and accurately found the parts of the Czech machine gun among a pile of machine gun parts. The parts were then quickly assembled onto the machine gun, and the machine gun was assembled in just a few minutes.

The assembly was completed, and the parts of the Belgian machine gun remained. Then the remaining Belgian machine gun parts were used, and the Belgian machine gun was also used for a short time. After assembling the two machine guns, he removed the magazines that had been loaded for the Czech machine guns. In the midst of a pile of bullets, he accurately picked out a bullet that could be used by a Czech machine gun.

After the chamber is closed, the bullets are pressed into the magazine one by one. After filling the magazine of the Czech machine gun, he quickly removed the magazine of the Belgian machine gun, and calmly filled the magazine of the machine gun, which was not a picky eater. Then he pulled the bolts of the two machine guns separately, and listened to the crisp sound of ammunition before he stood up satisfied, signaling that he had finished.

When he was done with all his work, he took off the black cloth from his eyes. Although Wang Dong over there has completed the assembly of the two machine guns, he has not yet completed the procedures of closing the chamber and pressing the bullets. In the first game, it was undoubtedly Wang Dong who lost. By the time Wang Dong completed the last procedure, it was already a few minutes after the machine gun platoon commander had completed all the actions.

The wonderful performance of the two people made everyone present applaud. However, in order to finally test the results of the two people, Li Ziyuan also directly approved the two people to test the guns on the spot, and casually compared the shooting level of the two people. Although he was also a little distressed, Li Ziyuan also knew that this was not the time to be stingy.

After setting the target in multiple directions, according to Li Ziyuan's constantly adjusted password, the two people pulled the trigger respectively. However, the machine gun platoon commander took turns firing with two light machine guns in his hand, and there was no jamming. Moreover, in terms of shooting methods, it is also a combination of long and short shots. Compared with Wang Dong's simple use of short point shooting, the effect is much better.

Moreover, of the two Czech machine guns assembled by Wang Dong, the second one was jammed when it hit the third short shot. Undoubtedly, Wang Dong's gun was pressed into a bullet that did not fit properly. By the time he got rid of the jammed bullet, he had already missed Li Ziyuan's three commands and missed three targets.

By the end of the whole game, although the two of them were basically equal in the accuracy of short point shots, Wang Dong lost in the previous link. After both of them put down the machine guns in their hands and stood up, Wang Dong's face was somewhat unnatural.

People assemble two different machine guns, and they assemble the same machine gun, which in itself is their own advantage. Not to mention that his movements are still slow, there are still problems in the most critical bullet loading link. Otherwise, the machine gun in his hand would not have jammed.

With this result, Wang Dong, who originally thought that the machine gun was very good, felt that his face was a little dull. There was also a certain blow to his self-esteem. The waist that had always stood straight in a standard military posture also seemed to be bent down somewhat.

Seeing that the competition between the two was completed, Li Ziyuan walked up to Wang Dong, patted him on the shoulder, turned to Ma Yongcheng and said, "Old Ma, we got a good machine gunner again." Although this kid is still a little immature, he does have a set of machine guns. This kid didn't brag before, and the level of this machine gun is indeed high. ”

Speaking of this, Li Ziyuan turned his head to Wang Dong and said, "Although your machine gun shooting level is very high, your experience is still a little worse. Only know the use of short point fire, in fact, the combination of long and short light machine guns in use will be more conducive to giving full play to the power of machine guns. ”

"Just like the second command I gave to the two of you just now, is it more appropriate to shoot long points when the enemy is already close to a 100-meter skirmish line? If I'm not mistaken, this is your first time in combat after completing the training? The accuracy is good, but it still makes the mistake of inexperience. ”

"Don't be emotional, though. Your opponent has been a soldier for four years, and he has fought dozens of battles, big and small. In this regard, naturally you are much more experienced than you are. Our troops are equipped with miscellaneous equipment, so naturally we will use whatever weapons we have. Sometimes the captured weapons are incomplete, and they have to find a way to get them right, which has developed some unique skills. ”

"As long as you study hard, you will catch up in the shortest time. Also, your psychological quality is a little worse, and the bullet that stuck is that you are in a little anxious after hearing that your opponent has completed all the procedures. If it weren't for the anxiety in your heart, I don't think you would have made this low-level mistake. ”

"As a veteran who has been in the army for almost ten years, I am here to share with you a word of experience. Remember, the more calm you are on the battlefield, the better your chances of survival. Also, the real skills are not learned on the training ground. What is taught on the training ground is only the most basic thing. There are more things to learn on the battlefield. ”

"Only those who learn quickly will survive on the battlefield. In addition, you must always remember that you are a soldier, and now a soldier of the Eighth Route Army. Have faith in yourself, one failure does not mean eternal failure. As a soldier, your waist should always be straight. Even if you fail once, don't bend your back. ”

Hearing Li Ziyuan's words, Wang Dong, who was originally a little ashamed, stood up straight in front of Li Ziyuan and said: "Please rest assured, sir, I will definitely learn from that commander and promise to be the best machine gunner, and kill more devils on the battlefield to be ashamed." ”
