Chapter Twenty-Four: The Sense of the Gun
Seeing that this guy couldn't put down this Czech-made machine gun, Li Ziyuan smiled and didn't say anything. Everyone is a soldier, and a good gun naturally likes it. It's just that the eight roads are too poor, and the number of machine guns is limited. Not to mention the squad level, it would be nice to have one machine gun at the platoon level.
The lack of firepower of the troops made them very excited. Now that he has got a light machine gun, it is normal for Liu Lianming to like it. Anyway, his Hanyang-made team doesn't have a few bullets available now. Let him carry this machine gun first, anyway, since it has been captured, he can't leave it behind, right?
Looking at Li Ziyuan who smiled at her, Liu Lianming was a little embarrassed. However, this guy held this machine gun and came to Li Ziyuan's side and said, "Captain, I want to tell you if this machine gun can be distributed to me for use." When I was in the Divisional Cadre Regiment, I wanted to be a machine gunner. ”
Regarding Liu Lianming's request, Li Ziyuan said with a smile: "Old Liu, to be honest, seeing that you like this machine gun so much, it stands to reason that there is no problem in allocating it to you." But to be honest, this is a machine gun that you will use? Don't forget what I told a few of you the other day, there is talk of machine gun use. ”
"Besides, you are Lao Tzu's squad leader, but Lao Tzu trained you as a platoon leader. Let's not talk about the past, just now you don't want to be a team leader. What is the responsibility of you, the squad leader, is to command your troops to fight. A squad leader goes to be a machine gunner, are you too many talents under Lao Tzu? ”
"Don't forget, the words of your kid to teach Lao Tzu that day. Don't criticize Lao Tzu for being the first to be the way, and when you come to yourself, you will leave everything behind? Besides, there are only a few of us, where can I find you a secondary shooter? The machine gun does not have a secondary shooter, and it is impossible for the machine gun to be used by you at that time, but now let you carry it, it is rare and rare, and there is still no problem. ”
After Li Ziyuan finished speaking, Liu Lianming's face turned red. Looking at this guy's flushed face, Li Ziyuan said: "You carry that machine gun first, and Lao Tzu will use it himself when you use it." Replace your Hanyang made first, and go and pick a Czech one among the trophies. ”
"All the rifles we got this time are Czech-made, and the bullets are all Czech-made bullets. The two bullets are not universal, and your Hanyang-made one has two bullets right now, which is no different from nothing. I know a veteran who uses a gun, and he is not familiar with it. But now there is no way, there is no Hanyang bullet, you can choose a Czech rifle first. ”
"That gun is much easier to use than Hanyang-made, powerful, long-range, and accurate. Your marksmanship is good, and a good gun will play a greater role. The small team that Lao Tzu is leading now is from a veteran with good marksmanship. When necessary, Lao Tzu still expects your marksmanship to cook. ”
Li Ziyuan's arrangement, but Liu Lianming shook his head and said: "Captain, I know that the Czech style is a good gun, but I can't use that thing." It's okay for me to use Hanyang's marksmanship, but if I change to another gun, no matter what Czech style or Chinese formal, and what Liao Thirteen, even if it is a Jin-made 79 rifle that uses the same kind of bullet, I can't hit anything. ”
"It turns out that when I was in the divisional backbone regiment, our battalion commander said that my marksmanship is not bad, which is similar to your idea, and he also plans to replace me with a good gun. But I don't know what's going on, with that medium formal rifle, I can't hit anything accurately. Last year's anti-sweeping operation, because of this incident, almost failed to bring down an ambush war. ”
Liu Lianming's words made Li Ziyuan speechless. In this case, he also knows that this kind of thing is called gun feeling. An old gun that has been eliminated may be used to be superb, but it is not accurate to replace him with a good gun. It's as if all the wings have grown and flown away.
When he was in the main force, his battalion commander had this problem. An old-fashioned Gongzao barge gun in his hand can be used to hit wherever he can within the effective range. But he changed the fast and slow machine, or the better Spain, Belgium, or the same gun produced by other domestic manufacturers, and he didn't know where to fly as soon as he fired the bullet.
Ask him why, and he doesn't know why. That is to say, as soon as you change the gun, that feeling is gone. So what Liu Lianming said, Li Ziyuan still believes. This is also the reason why many veterans, even if they have captured new guns with better performance, do not like to change them.
Because that kind of gun feeling is not something that can be cultivated in a short period of time. The gun sense is very wonderful, even Li Ziyuan, a veteran, is a little confused. On the contrary, Li Ziyuan himself does not feel this way, he prefers Japanese-made rifles. Although it is a bit bulky, it has a long range and high accuracy. In particular, with the original Japanese Type 38 rifle, at a distance of 250 meters, he can basically point where to fight.
However, this guy knew this and still wanted to use a machine gun, but Li Ziyuan was very dissatisfied. This guy is disgusted with too many bullets in the army. After Liu Lianming said this, Li Ziyuan immediately decided that this machine gun could not be used by him no matter what. But it's a good choice to let him carry it first.
Ignoring Liu Lianming, Li Ziyuan asked the soldiers to replenish the bullets immediately. Although among the seized ammunition, 79 bullets were the mainstay. There was only one box of six or five bullets, but there were only ten people, and the average distribution was enough for one hundred rounds of ammunition per person, and four grenades were distributed to each person.
Coupled with the Czech-made light machine gun, if you don't count the marksmanship and tactics, even if the puppet army comes to two squads, it will be enough to deal with it for a while. As for the remaining Czech-made rifles and bullets, Li Ziyuan hesitated for a moment and decided to return to the base first. The troops are now under-trained with weapons, and carrying these ammunition and weapons themselves is also a drag.
But the return journey was not all smooth sailing for Li Ziyuan. He didn't expect that the Japanese puppet army would bite him so quickly. I didn't expect that among the Japanese troops in Pingchuan Town, there were actually military dogs. The most important thing is that it is not a military dog.
Although he managed to kill two of them, with the help of the only remaining military dog of the Japanese army. But he never got rid of the pursuit of the Japanese puppet army. Under the bite of the Japanese puppet army, after going around a whole circle, Li Ziyuan was driven back to the shallow mountainous area east of Pingchuan Town by the Japanese puppet army.
Looking at the sun gradually sinking in the west, Li Ziyuan has never looked forward to the dark like today. The captured weapons and ammunition, except for those that could be carried, had already been buried so as not to affect the movement of the troops. But even so, the troops led by Li Ziyuan still failed to get rid of the pursuit of the Japanese puppet army.
At dusk, Li Ziyuan, who had never been able to get rid of the pursuit of the Japanese puppet army, led the first squad, although he was never bitten by the Japanese puppet army. But he was also trapped on a hill less than 500 meters east of Wang Tieshi's mysterious ancestral tomb. In fact, it's not that he was trapped, but if he didn't get rid of that military dog, it would be impossible to get rid of the pursuit of the Japanese puppet army.
After Li Ziyuan handed the telescope to Liu Lianming, he pointed to a Japanese wolf dog led by a Japanese soldier Cao who was barking at the mountain, and said to Liu Lianming: "How many bullets do you have there?" Within a distance of 200 meters, are you sure that you will knock out the dog with one shot? If we don't get rid of that dog, we will never be able to get rid of the pursuit of the Japanese puppet army. ”
Taking the telescope in Li Ziyuan's hand, Liu Lianming carefully observed the position, turned his head and said, "Captain, it's a little far." If I'm used to using the 38 style or the Czech type, there is no problem with this distance. But you also know the effective range of Hanyang-made rifles, and it is still a little difficult to go so far. ”
Liu Lianming's answer, Li Ziyuan said a little angrily: "You kid really fucking has a lot of things, if you can use Czech manufacturing, you can fight so accurately." Come on, you hold the machine gun first, and Lao Tzu will do it himself. You pressed the spare magazine for me, and I had to use the machine gun after I killed the dog. ”
After finishing speaking, Li Ziyuan did not do it immediately. Instead, two grenades were collected from each fighter, and along the northeast direction of the ridge, several tripping mines were constructed in succession. Because the Japanese puppet army pursued too closely, Li Ziyuan also sent the remaining box of grenades, and each of them carried a few on their backs. At this time, two pieces were collected in each person's hand, and it would not affect the battle.
After the deployment was completed, Li Ziyuan told all the fighters who fought that no one should move when he fired. If the Japanese puppet army under the mountain attacked and no one was allowed to shoot, they were greeted with grenades. However, after the grenade is pulled on the string, it is thrown out after checking the two numbers. Two grenades per person, and when they were finished, they retreated to the northeast. At the same time, Li Ziyuan clearly told all the soldiers that they must remember the location of the tripping thunder when retreating.
After explaining this, Li Ziyuan took a Jinzao 38 rifle from a soldier, opened the ruler and carefully locked the military dog. Seeing the other fighters flee the grenade, unscrewed the safety cover to pull the string out, and was ready for battle, he pulled the trigger that had been prepared a long time ago.
After Li Ziyuan killed the military dog that made them unable to retreat with one shot, the mountain had already determined that they were on the top of this mountain, and the Japanese puppet army that was preparing to attack reacted at once. The machine guns of the Japanese puppet army immediately fired, and the dense rain of bullets almost detained Li Ziyuan there.
And it was not only machine gun fire, but also the Japanese infantry artillery and the mortar of the puppet army. Li Ziyuan, who had escaped by quickly transferring his position, threw the rifle in his hand back to the soldier, quickly set up the light machine gun that took over Liu Lianming's arms, and sternly ordered no one in the troops to shoot.
Fortunately, the Japanese puppet army at the foot of the mountain was also worried that after dark, these Eighth Route Army would run away. After a period of machine-gun and artillery fire, seeing that there was no return fire on the mountain, they formed a battle formation and began to search the mountain. Looking at the Japanese puppet army that launched a fan-shaped search formation at the foot of the mountain, Li Ziyuan was very calm.
It wasn't until these guys were less than fifty meters away from them that the Czech-made light machine gun in their hands took the lead. And the soldiers beside him did not hesitate at all when they heard this order, and after pulling the grenade in their hands according to Li Ziyuan's instructions, they paused for two seconds before throwing it out.
Although the number of twenty grenades is not much, the shrenchel rain formed by these grenades that basically exploded in the air was enough for the Japanese puppet army to digest for a while. Just when Li Ziyuan ordered the retreat, Liu Lianming beside him rushed to the side of the puppet army who was knocked down by his machine gun, and hurriedly unloaded the bullets on this guy's body.
