"Do you have anything to say?"

Liang Hong pointed at Wu Peifu. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Report to the commander, I just lamented the large number of machine guns, and the 15,000 people of the Wuyi Army only have two machine guns."

Wu Peifu learned from others to call Commander Liang Hong, and wondered in his heart whether this manager of a foreign bank would personally command the garrison? After listening to Wu Peifu's words, others also knew that the last person to join the teaching team turned out to be from the Zhili Huaijun.

"I think Nie Dashuai must have incorporated machine guns into artillery."

"Yes," Wu nodded.

"Then tell me about the pros and cons of doing this", Liang Hong also brought a bit of school examination.

"Compared with artillery, machine guns have a short range and require direct bullets to be lethal, and they are almost useless when integrated into artillery. When it comes to profit, the only benefit of doing so is to save money. ”

"Very good, this is a vicious circle, the army is poor, and they are reluctant to use weapons for normal training and operations, and as a result, the soldiers will not be able to use them, and in the end, the effectiveness of weapons in actual combat will be even worse, and in the end they will be abandoned altogether."

Next, Liang Hong explained the role of machine guns in actual combat one by one, such as fire suppression, fire interception, cross blockade, long-range transcendence shooting, and so on. Pose the machine guns on the ground in different postures, and draw positions and firing curves on the blackboard.

"The long-range transcendence shooting method is to use the Maxim machine gun as a cannon, and the muzzle of the gun is at an elevation angle to the ground, so that the machine gun bullets can shoot a longer range and scatter in an oval shape over the enemy's position. This way the machine gun could be placed behind cover and used, and on the enemy's position, bullets rained down from the sky. The various concealment measures in individual tactics, such as crawling and lying down in front of this tactic, have no effect, and even if they hide in trenches, they may still be hit, so that there is almost no safe place in the rear of the enemy. Therefore, in addition to the actual killing, it also causes psychological pressure on the enemy. In order to achieve this effect, firstly, the machine-gun shooters must undergo sufficient training, and secondly, the coordinates of the enemy's position must be calibrated in advance, and forward observation posts must be set up, even if the impact point is corrected. ”

The unbelievable tactics made the team members drunk and fascinated.

"Report to the commander, may I ask if a lot of bullets are needed for such a shot."

Zhou Zirong looked over, and it was Zhao Dahu, the third squad leader, who raised the question, and he couldn't see that the guy who looked five big and three thick would think about it so carefully, it seemed that this was another character who needed attention.

"That's a good question, and there's a question involved, the cost-effectiveness ratio of weapons. That is, what price are we prepared to pay to achieve the desired effect. From the perspective of cost-effectiveness, which weapon is the most economical? ”

"Sharpshooter"

Wu Peifu was the first to answer, and the others were still recalling how many kinds of weapons they had learned.

"Yes, the sharpshooter probably killed and wounded an enemy soldier with just one or two bullets. But an army composed entirely of sharpshooters is likely to be defeated by an ordinary army equipped with a variety of weapons. Why, because weapons can restrain each other. Against sharpshooters, you can use artillery bombardment to kill, or it can be more complicated, under the suppression of machine-gun fire, cover the soldiers rush in front of the sharpshooters. ”

"In terms of the use of machine guns, long-range beyond shooting, the most cost-effective use case is the assembly area of long-range shooting of the enemy. But sometimes, shooting is not just about killing the enemy, such as harassing shooting, short and irregular shooting, to cause psychological pressure on the enemy. Another example is the support overshoot shot, when the friendly position is critical, the firepower output is increased by overshooting the shot, and all the cost-effectiveness ratios become insignificant in the face of repelling the enemy and holding the position. ”

"Don't think that the positions of friendly forces have nothing to do with you, that war is a team, and there is no such thing as a one-man war. No matter how strong your own defense line is and how powerful your firepower is, when the positions of friendly forces are breached, you will face the fate of being surrounded and annihilated by the enemy. Therefore, helping friendly forces in war is also equivalent to helping oneself. ”

Liang Hong crammed to teach the concept of war in later generations, hoping that these future officers would remember it and truly melt it into actual action. Suddenly, he saw a small head flashing at the door of the restaurant, and Shen Yue's pretty face was full of anger, pointing at him outside the door. This girl usually has a very gentle temper, who provoked her, it seems that she has something to find herself.

Hurriedly announced the end of class, just went out to see the little girl jump out, she has experience in boating, and she has some resistance to seasickness.

"Hey, there's your telegram on it."

Shen Yue pouted, "The person in charge of the telegram is not allowed to take it out, hmph, look down on people, can I still lose the telegram." ”

Only then did Liang Hong understand why Shen Yue was angry. That's not because I'm afraid of losing it, but because I'm afraid of being seen by others. For the sake of this telegraph room, he made a special negotiation with Captain Davis, and the telegraph room was closed to the crew, and there were guards with guns at the door. However, these are not easy to explain to Shen Yue, and it is not appropriate to say deep and shallow, so I simply changed the topic.

"You've been here a long time ago?"

"But no, I heard you talk about guns and cannons in it, aren't you engaged in technology, these people should eat food and become soldiers?"

"That can only show that I am smart, technically capable, and I can become a soldier after eating food, and I will definitely not starve in the future." Liang Hong bragged to himself very stinkyly.

At the door of the telegraph room, two guards stood straight, their Mauser rifles and bayonets shining. They were all the escorts of the temporary base at the mouth of the Yellow River, and after they got on the boat, they were changed by Liang Hong into his personal guards.

"Brother Liang, I didn't expect your equipment to be so advanced, the telegram should have been sent from Shanghai."

As soon as he entered the door, Shen Mingxuan was full of praise, "It's hundreds of kilometers away, but the electrical signal is still quite clear, and it's almost time to catch up with the cable telegraph." ”

Liang Hong set the rules for the telegraph room in advance, it was okay to participate in sending and receiving telegrams, but it was not allowed to take the telegram out, let alone mention wireless telegraphy to the outside world. The telegraph room is managed by Spy 2 Zero, and there is no password translation, and others only have access to encrypted messages.

Liang Hong took the telegrams, one was a summary of local information in Shanghai, and the other was the requirements of the base that were forwarded, both telegrams were encrypted, and the base messages were double-encrypted, and outsiders looked like just groups of Arabic numerals.

"I'll go out first."

Liang Hong said hello to the people in the room, went out with the message, and wanted to go back to his room to translate it. walked to the door of the room, but saw Shen Yue following behind like a little tail.

"Is there something wrong?"

"Isn't that thing of yours secretive, can I go into the telegraph room again in the future?"

Shen Yue asked a little timidly, except for their mother and daughter, all men on the boat were men, and the bumps on the sea were very uncomfortable and boring.

"Absolutely."

Liang Hong reacted, daring to love that the confidentiality measures he arranged scared the little girl. With a roll of his eyes, he shook the message in his hand and asked.

"Do you want to know what it's about? Otherwise, you can be hired as a special assistant to a foreign bank, and you can earn a salary and have the messages translated by yourself. ”

"Really? I have been studying in a women's middle school for three years, and I have no problem with Chinese and English, and the salary cannot be too low. "If it's too low, it hurts your self-esteem.

Liang Hong saw that Shen Yue's eyes were shining, and knew that the temptation was almost successful.

"How much do you think is appropriate?"

"There should be no less than ten silver dollars a month, and the mechanics in Shanghai are higher than this."

"Haha, of course it won't be so low, first according to the treatment of school students, fifty silver dollars per month. However, assistants have rules, at least they must learn to keep secrets. ”

"Of course, I won't tell anyone who asks."

The girl looked excited.
