[1187 Motorized Rifle Division]
"Why, Grand Duke, is there any problem?" Hua Huang smiled slightly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Carol I listened to it in a fog, but said with a smile: "No, no problem, Huaguo is really advanced, I have a long experience today, this kind of car, if it can hit the thick armor and artillery, it is an ironclad ship on land, right?" ”
"Ironclad on land? Well, that's what it means. President Meng smiled and said to the driver in front of him, "Drive." ”
The driver starts the car and the engine starts twice.
The sound was a little loud, which couldn't help but make the emperor a little embarrassed, but fortunately, this is the most advanced car in the world, and besides, Grand Duke Carol I and his wife have never sat in a car! Naturally, they couldn't hear the problem.
President Meng held Jiegege's hand and looked at the nervous Carol I and Mrs. with a smile, "Grand Duke, madam, don't be nervous, this is the sound of the engine." ”
Both Carol I and his wife nervously forgot to nod their heads, and looked at the driver in front of them in a daze.
As soon as Hua Huang finished speaking, the driver drove away.
Fast and steady, if it weren't for the small Bucharest, the streets of Bucharest are indeed relatively narrow, even if it is a European city, at this time, it is the same as the third-tier cities in China, and it is absolutely impossible to compare with the large cities in China.
Carol I's wife covered her mouth nervously.
Jie Gege's English was not good, but he still smiled and said in English: "Madam, don't be afraid. ”
Carol I forced his uneasiness, "Your Majesty, this is amazing. ”
Hua Huang smiled: "How is it?" It's good to be on it, right? After a while, I had one sent to Romania as a gift from me to the Grand Duke. ”
"This gift is too expensive, and Europe doesn't have it yet!" Carol I rejoiced: "Thank you, Your Majesty. ”
"You're welcome, the Grand Duke is my friend! We Chinese people are very friendly to our friends and very friendly to them. "Huahuang said generously.
Carol I's wife's nervousness at this time went down, but there was another problem, a little motion sickness.
Fortunately, the city is not big, and with Carol I's guards riding horses in front of them, they will soon arrive at the palace, otherwise, Carol I and his wife may really not be able to bear the pain of motion sickness and will vomit.
"It's amazing." Carol I, who got out of the car, circled the car like a pilgrimage this time, "It's amazing." ”
President Meng and Jiegege looked at each other and smiled, and both of them were thinking in their hearts, will this Grand Duke Carol I be able to say this line?
When entering the palace, you can't take a car, at least, you can't take this kind of car, and you can change to a horse-drawn carriage.
When Emperor Hua talked to Carol I about the development of modern infantry, Carol I listened to it with relish, and no longer thought that Emperor Hua was bragging.
Although the Emperor does not have a mechanized army for the time being, this does not affect the Emperor's boasting.
Moreover, the Chinese Emperor really already has a semi-mechanized army!
The 1st Field Division of the Chinese Army, the 2nd Field Division of the Chinese Army, the 3rd Field Division of the Chinese Army, the 4th Field Division of the Chinese Army and the 5th Field Division of the Chinese Army, as well as the 18th Field Division of the Chinese Army and the 19th Field Division of the Chinese Army garrisoning Beijing, these seven divisions are already equipped with cars and semi-automatic artillery, which can be regarded as semi-mechanized troops!
Although the number of Chinese troops is not as exaggerated as rumored in other countries, the quality of the Chinese army is indeed very good, until now, the British, the French, these countries that have fought with the Chinese army, do not have a clear concept, they think that the last defeat is just because they are out of the ranks of miscellaneous troops, not that their weapons are inferior to China!
The reason why President Meng wants to bring a car to Europe is purely to pretend to be forced, in order to let other countries see China's industrial progress, mainly to prepare for economy and trade!
Of course, the Chinese Emperor was not here to show off his strength.
With cars, gasoline generators and diesel engines, now the Chinese army and Beizhong, there are no obstacles to the development of tanks.
Beizhong is actually developing tanks at the same time as developing cars, but Huahuang does not require immediate promotion, but just silently develops and upgrades!
Because, on the most important aspect, China does not have such a strong industrial strength to supply a mechanized army! How much fuel does this cost?
Not to mention the mechanized army, not to mention the armored forces, it is still far from China, if in 1879 there is an armored army with unlimited fuel and unlimited ammunition, it can really push the whole of Europe within a year!
Motorized infantry mainly uses infantry command methods, such as passwords, flags, and infantry radio.
On this basis, mechanized infantry mainly adopts vehicle-mounted radios and infantry-tank cooperative radios.
Comparatively speaking, the organization and command of mechanized infantry and tanks are more complicated.
In later history, due to translation and historical reasons, the "motorized infantry division" or "motorized division" on the number does not necessarily refer to motorized infantry.
But in Hua Huang's opinion, there is no difference.
"Motorization" does not mean either motorcycles or trucks, but rather motorized and motorized.
President Meng's Hua Guo, let alone a mechanized infantry division now, even the construction of a motorized infantry division does not meet the requirements and cannot meet the necessary conditions.
At least, at this time in 1879, the Emperor of China has not been able to form a motorized infantry division, and even the 1st Field Division of the Chinese Army, which is the most well-equipped, can be regarded as half a light motorized infantry division at best.
The 2nd Field Division of the Chinese Army, the 3rd Field Division of the Chinese Army, the 4th Field Division of the Chinese Army, the 5th Field Division of the Chinese Army, and the 18th Field Division and the 19th Field Division of the Chinese Army, which are directly responsible for the security of the president and the capital, are simply equipped with a few trucks.
The differences between a mechanized infantry division and a motorized infantry division are:
1. Distinguish from the means of loading. Motorized infantry mainly travels in cars and motorcycles;
Mechanized infantry mainly rides in mechanized infantry fighting vehicles, referred to as infantry fighting vehicles.
2. From the point of view of the way of fighting. The motorized infantry usually maneuvers to the range of the opponent's small-caliber artillery, generally 3 to 5 kilometers away, and enters the offensive starting position after getting off the car, and the car is hidden at this time, and in the artillery fire support stage of artillery fire support (generally 30 to 50 minutes), then the rear movement, the side is expanded into a row of battle formations by the company battle formation, and finally expanded into a group battle formation, at the edge of the distance from the effective range of the enemy's machine guns (generally 400 to 600 meters), it is deployed into a shock battle formation, and the front line of the enemy's defense is attacked at high speed. Implement the final breakthrough.
Mechanized infantry in the above distance, in the march between a little rectification, usually take the tank in front, infantry combat vehicle in the rear of the coordinated action mode, to achieve the "while rushing" requirements, when necessary, can also take the infantry to get off the vehicle to support the tank battle, foot to support the tank impact of the coordinated action mode, to complete the impact breakthrough task.
In addition to fighting on foot, mechanized infantry generally adopts the mode of fighting by ride according to the terrain and enemy situation. When the terrain is not conducive to high-speed assault by mechanized infantry and tanks, foot combat is used.
The distance for mechanized infantry to get off the vehicle is 100 to 150 meters, that is, when the mechanized infantry and the tank are at a distance of more than 100 meters from the front of the opponent's defensive position at high speed (having crossed the minefield before the opponent's front), the mechanized infantry will get out of the vehicle, and then break through the opponent's front line at high speed.
3. The weapons of the battle are different. Motorized infantry mainly uses individual weapons; Mechanized infantry, on the other hand, mainly uses vehicle-mounted weapons, such as artillery, anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles, vehicle-mounted mortars, grenade launchers, etc., while individual weapons are secondary.
4. Communication command is different. Motorized infantry mainly uses infantry command methods, such as passwords, flags, and infantry radio.
On this basis, mechanized infantry mainly adopts vehicle-mounted radios and infantry-tank cooperative radios.
Comparatively speaking, the organization and command of mechanized infantry and tanks are more complicated.
For infantry, mechanized infantry is at its highest stage of development.
2. Characteristics of heavy mechanized infantry divisions:
1. It has a strong firepower strike capability. It is composed of a variety of firepower units, forming an all-round firepower strike system with long range, high power, and high accuracy.
2. It has the ability to maneuver quickly. In terms of mobility capabilities, it can be divided into two types: strategic maneuver and tactical maneuver.
3. Have accurate and real-time intelligence reconnaissance capabilities.
4. Have the ability to provide smooth communication support;
5. Have effective electronic warfare capabilities.
3. Characteristics of light mechanized infantry divisions:
1. The weight of the equipment is relatively light, which is convenient for rapid delivery in air, sea and land modes, and strives for the initiative on the battlefield;
2. The ratio of the number of people and vehicles is relatively reasonable, which is convenient for carrying out combat missions of different intensities and various non-war operations;
3. It is a vehicle-mounted weapon with strong optionality, which can be equipped with different weapons according to different combat styles and different main attack targets, so as to give full play to the maximum comprehensive benefits of the vehicle;
4. It is a model with good versatility, which is convenient for the development of a variety of variant vehicles to meet the different needs of combat and support, and usually has better water performance without transformation;
5. It is highly maintainable, usually adopts modular design and unit assembly of components, which is easy to repair in case of failure, and the spare parts are light and easy to store and transport, so that the equipment can have a high battlefield regeneration rate.
Since the beginning of the new century, light mechanized units have been more and more favored by all countries in the world. In the modernization of the armed forces of various countries, the construction of light mechanized units has come to the fore and is unique, adding a strong current to the tide of military reform on a global scale.
4. Characteristics of motorized infantry divisions:
1. The motorized infantry division is mainly equipped with wheeled vehicles;
2. The Russian army is collectively referred to as motorized infantry, and Europe and the United States are collectively referred to as mechanized infantry, in fact, the meaning is the same.
Our army divides them, and those that ride on tires in the formation are motorized, and those who ride in the armored tracked vehicles in the formation are mechanized.
Motorized infantry refers to a type of unit that carries out maneuvers on vehicles and fights on foot. It is characterized by a high speed of movement before the start of the battle, adaptation to various terrain conditions, and flexible maneuverability.
But there was no necessary cover when conducting battles, and the pace of development of the battle was slow. This is a transitional establishment adopted by economically underdeveloped countries.
Usually, motorized infantry divisions are composed of tank regiments, motorized infantry regiments (such as **** regiments, air defense regiments; The motorized infantry regiment is composed of motorized infantry battalions (if **** barracks; The motorized infantry battalion is composed of a motorized infantry company (if **** soldier company; The motorized infantry company consists of a number of infantry platoons and a motor squad.
From the point of view of the mode of combat, the motorized infantry usually maneuvers to the range of the opponent's small-caliber artillery, generally 3 to 5 kilometers away, and enters the offensive starting position after getting off the car, and the car is hidden at this time, and in the artillery fire support stage of artillery fire support (generally 30 to 50 minutes), then the rear movement, the side is expanded into a row of battle formations by the company battle formation, and finally expanded into a group battle formation, at the edge of the distance from the effective range of the enemy's machine guns (generally 400 to 600 meters), unfolded into a shock battle formation, Storm the front line of the enemy's defense at high speed and implement the final breakthrough.
According to the terrain conditions, tanks and armored vehicles can be used to cover, infantry tailgating, or infantry cover, tanks and armored vehicles tailgating and other coordinated action methods to jointly impact the enemy formation, if necessary, the tank in front and the armored vehicle in the rear can be used to coordinate the formation, with the tank mainly covering the armored vehicle and impacting the enemy formation.
Mechanized infantry in the above distance, in the march between a little rectification, usually take the tank in front, infantry combat vehicle in the rear of the coordinated action mode, to achieve the "while rushing" requirements, when necessary, can also take the infantry to get off the vehicle to support the tank battle, foot to support the tank impact of the coordinated action mode, to complete the impact breakthrough task.
Unlike motorized infantry, which basically fights on foot, mechanized infantry usually fights on horse, depending on the terrain and enemy situation. When the terrain is not conducive to high-speed assault by mechanized infantry and tanks, foot combat is used.
The weapons of the battle are different.
Motorized infantry mainly uses individual weapons; Mechanized infantry, on the other hand, mainly uses vehicle-mounted weapons, such as artillery, anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles, vehicle-mounted mortars, grenade launchers, etc., while individual weapons are secondary.
On this basis, mechanized infantry mainly adopts vehicle-mounted radios and infantry-tank cooperative radios.
Comparatively speaking, the organization and command of mechanized infantry and tanks are more complicated.
In the Hua Huang's military progress program, the number of troops was not forced, but mainly relied on the quality of the army.
With the modernization of the military, the small number of people is not the main aspect.
Equipment comes first!
"The President 1878 rifle that our country is now equipped with, has the Grand Duke seen it?" Hua Huang asked.
"I've seen it, it's very good, although the quality still needs to be strengthened, but the performance is very good, and it is already the most advanced rifle." Grand Duke Carol I was honest.
