Chapter 344: Dissenting Opinions
After Yang Yuanzhao told Feng Yuxiang what he knew in detail, he especially emphasized the coordination of infantry and artillery and the barrage Xu Jin, Feng Yuxiang looked at Yang Yuanzhao's expression a little strange, he didn't expect that Yang Yuanzhao actually knew so much, in Feng Yuxiang's view, Yang Yuanzhao is a scholar, or a very strong researcher, he is a good hand at researching things, and his business ability is also very strong, otherwise he would not have created such a good career in Baotou, Baotou In his opinion, the scale of the city and the level of science and technology, I am afraid that it is no worse than the traditional industrial cities such as Shanghai and Tianjin, and even larger than the other two cities in terms of vitality and scale, especially after the construction of the Qiji factory and the steel plant, which has also become the backing of the new army, and the strong economic strength can support the training of the huge army.
The commercial and scientific capabilities are strong enough, on the other hand, the military aspect, he only knows a half-understanding, at most there is a theory of winning by firepower, everyone knows this, automatic weapons and artillery, this thing, all know well, the 1900 Eight-Nation Coalition Army clearly shows this, 20,000 cavalry shocked the team of thousands of people, was defeated by automatic firearms and artillery, he is also a witness to this battle, attaches great importance to this, as long as there are conditions, it will enhance vitality.
But now, Feng Yuxiang is a little impressed by Yang Yuanzhao, and the radio calls for artillery fire and radio command, which is really unheard of. As long as you think about it for a moment, you have military talent, and it is also clear that the role of this timely call, the fire support in the rear, a certain distance, is only a mechanical attack, often before the opponent occupies a position, or before the attack position. In an attack that suppresses a certain amount of firepower, artillery fire is generally not used in battle, or when the enemy or friend is unknown, otherwise it is easy to be injured by mistake.
After knowing the actual situation in front of me. For example, the distribution of troops, the density of dรน, and even after some firepower is pointed, let the artillery fire under the command of the radio, and clear at a fixed point, which represents the power of the artillery. I don't know how much bigger it is than before, in itself, the firepower of the new army in Baotou is already the best in the whole world, once this is added. On the basis of fierce firepower, coupled with accurate guidance and bombardment, the strength of the Baotou New Army has not only doubled, but also been reborn.
Feng Yuxiang turned countless thoughts in his heart, and finally said, "Yuan Zhao, like this." I will prepare a group of people, even most of the officers above the battalion level, to take time. To study radio, there is no need to talk about those basic, transmitting knowledge, just focus on the role of radio, and we will discuss his tactics in groups. โ
Yang Yuanzhao nodded, this was exactly what he wanted to see. New technology, only the real one. Recognizing his power, he thoroughly used the new technology. In order to really play his role, then this thing for Feng Yuxiang to see, is to let him pay attention, as the commander of the new army, let the officers understand, master, and even discuss, is the fundamental to play the important role of radio, he is a layman, at most to play the role of on-demand or reminder, to really play the role of radio systematically, really need the army itself.
After notifying Feng Yuxiang, Yang Yuanzhao also put his mind at ease, the newly made radio station was still taken back, and if it was placed here by Feng Yuxiang, no one would use it, it was just an ornament, it was better to take it back and do a simulation or cover-up. After bidding farewell to Feng Yuxiang, he also returned home and summarized some rough knowledge of information warfare, as well as what he knew, the role of radio and information in the modern army.
For example, with the help of scouts, or special forces, go deep behind enemy lines, use optics or other advanced means, accurately detect the opponent's military strength and firepower arrangement, and then use radio to guide the artillery behind to attack, if it is 75 guns, this is nothing, his attack range is a few kilometers, in this case, directly with the help of telescopes or direct aiming, you can achieve the goal, but 105 howitzers and 155 heavy artillery, this is an absolute strategic weapon, The firing range is much higher than that of the 75 guns, in this case, it is still the way to attack with the previous 75 guns, and the advantages of the 105 and 155 battlefields covering a large area and long range cannot be brought into play, but if it is too far, the 155 guns are very powerful, but compared to the war zone of several kilometers, or even more than ten kilometers, it is nothing.
Radio command, in a certain range dรน above, solves this problem, 105 and 155, can be distributed in stages, arranged in a wide area, even the rear, once the front needs heavy fire support, within a few minutes, it can be reached, in terms of power, than before, I don't know how much larger, the security performance is also much stronger, not to mention China, even if it is the great powers, more than 100 mm army artillery fire, is also quite expensive and important things, once the enemy's artillery group finds an opportunity to destroy, There is no need to fight the battle, and it can be prevented from being farther away from the battlefield, and it can be prevented from the past, and now it has almost reached the extreme.
After Yang Yuanzhao left, the more Feng Yuxiang thought about it, the happier he became, and almost immediately, he called Shi Congyun, Wang Jinming and Yan Xishan to inform them of the situation. The three of them listened to Feng Yuxiang's introduction, Wang Jinming and Shi Congyun, didn't say much, they were used to seeing Yang Yuanzhao's magic, more powerful things, they have seen Yang Yuanzhao do it, for example, 2 years ago, Yang Yuanzhao told them that they wanted to build China's Ruhr in Baotou, and they didn't understand what the meaning of the Ruhr represented, or Yang Yuanzhao explained it before he understood, and now Yang Yuanzhao has done this with his practical actions, perhaps, it is a little worse than the German Ruhr, but in a sense, Already on the way.
Among the four division commanders, the only one who had not had a positive deal with Yang Yuanzhao was hearsay, and even in many aspects, it was hearsay that Yan Xishan had put forward some different opinions after listening to Feng Yuxiang's story.
His fourth division, itself is a new division, the number of veterans is the least among the four divisions, with the help of his training and command, the combat effectiveness is not low, Lu Shi's training is good, Yan Xishan himself, is also very spiritual, for the basic things are relatively tight, but in the training and tasks, Feng Yuxiang found a problem, Yan Xishan is obsessed with Lu Shi's education, and therefore, it is difficult to accept new things, according to him, Lu Shi has no similar training, It is not possible to conduct targeted training on this, the radio is fine, if it is really useful, it is used well, the radio directs the artillery, this is not a joke with the safety of the soldiers.
Looking at Yan Xishan, Feng Yuxiang was slightly speechless and asked, "How strong is Lu Shi's support firepower?" How powerful! โ
As a professional soldier, Yan Xishan still knows about some Japanese artillery, and briefly introduces that Japan also has heavy artillery, at least more than 100 mm, but it is not arranged so much, most of them are similar to the 75 guns in Beiyang, with unique and even strict operating procedures, which is a relatively large gain for Yan Xishan in Lu Shi, and the Fourth Division has also become one of the four divisions of the New Army because of these foundations and strict management.
Listening to Yan Xishan's words, Feng Yuxiang patted his head, according to what he understood, Japan, although it is one of the emerging powers, but in terms of technology and equipment, especially heavy artillery, has always lagged behind the powers, the same caliber artillery, Japan's not only weighs the largest, the stability is not good, it is prone to problems, and the firing range is also the latest, the range of the 105 guns is even about the same as the range of the original German 75 guns, there are very few 155 guns, and I am afraid that there is at most one heavy artillery wing in the country, It is impossible for a military academy that trains ordinary non-commissioned officers and low-level officers to come into contact with these at all.
The 105 and 155 guns that Yang Yuanzhao got were either naval guns, and the British may have been more strict with China in terms of army weapons, but naval weapons, especially second-rate cruisers like the Haiqi, didn't care at all, so they took out first-class guns, with excellent quality, Yang Yuanzhao started from the British and German two aspects, with the help of the field of vision, they were modified, and on the basis of the British and German 155 heavy guns, they were modified, the barrel was strengthened, the pipe-to-body ratio was improved, and the firing range was improved. It is at least one section stronger than the 155 guns of the same kind, and within a coverage range of 10 kilometers, it can accurately shoot at the target with a very small error, even if it exceeds 20 kilometers, it has a certain accuracy.
The difference in range of 5 kilometers will make a big difference in power, not to mention the layout and battlefield control ability of 10 kilometers and more than 15 kilometers, so that the 155 gun really has a strong deterrent power and becomes the king of army artillery.
These, it is really inconvenient to explain to Yan Xishan, do you want to take the Japanese 155 heavy artillery, and make a longitudinal comparison with the northwest, 155 heavy artillery, are all important weapons of the country, if it is not for Baotou to have channels, it really can't be obtained, Feng Yuxiang smiled bitterly, solemnly looked at Yan Xishan, and said: "I don't care how many problems you have, you will know when you go, what do you think, keep them all, and study them seriously when you go, I know that this is a thing that changes the structure of the army, if there is any problem, come back and talk about it!" โ
Yan Xishan was a little disapproving, but the duty of a soldier is to obey orders, he obeyed Feng Yuxiang's order, according to Feng Yuxiang's statement, anxious about the personnel above the battalion, and in the artillery unit, the cadres above the platoon level were transferred, and the personnel were gathered together, waiting for a special lecture tomorrow, but in his heart, he was thinking about how to pierce Yang Yuanzhao's diorama, so that he could also see that professional soldiers were not something that these officials could afford.
