Chapter 61: The Comprehensive Reorganization of the Liangguang Army
In the office of Li Yi of the Golden Eagle Battalion, there are two rifles with a high degree of similarity, as well as a design drawing, which is a design drawing of a mortar, and the text on it is all in German, which indicates that this is a design drawing from Germany.
There were only Li Yi and Phantom in the office, although no one spoke, but the atmosphere in the entire office was quite depressing and heavy.
I couldn't see anything on the phantom's stone-carved face, but Li Yi's expression was very dignified. If the Mauser 98K rifle was born because of its own butterfly effect, then this rigorously designed mortar drawing completely shows that there is indeed a cross-over man in Europe, and it is in Germany.
The phantom blamed himself a little, he thought that his intelligence work was not done well, and the design drawings of his arsenal were lost to Germany, although Li Yi knew that it was not the responsibility of the ghost, but he couldn't tell him that someone had traveled through time and came to this time and space. If that were to happen, it would be a big problem.
"It's nothing, the progress of science and technology needs to compete with each other, demand has given rise to the emergence of advanced technology, we need to develop new weapons, and other countries will also develop new weapons, this is just a coincidence, not a mistake of your ghost organization." Li Yi said comfortingly.
"In any case, after more than a year of rapid development, our ghost organization has grown a lot, but I feel that it is necessary to carry out a thorough inventory, and we must prevent problems before they occur." The phantom did not relieve himself of self-blame because of Li Yi's comfort, in addition to being a little grateful to Li Yi for his trust in him, he felt even more that his work had made some mistakes and he had to improve it as soon as possible.
Li Yi has no way to take the phantom's more serious attitude, he can't explain all this to him directly, although Li Yi disagrees, the phantom likes to review the internal review from time to time, but this is a point that must be cautious in intelligence work, the confidentiality of intelligence work is very important, and there is no need to stop this cautious behavior, but find something for them to do, and distract the phantom's attention.
"Phantom, the New Year is coming soon, our main task is to reorganize the army, and the review of those foreign officers is the most important thing for you now."
"You can rest assured of this, among the more than 300 foreign instructors, more than 200 have already sworn to renounce their nationality and secretly join us, and those who have not joined us will be dismissed before the New Year." Looking at Li Yi's somewhat surprised expression, the phantom did not have the slightest smugness, but said lightly: "In two days, the families of those foreign officers and scientific researchers who have sworn to join us will come to Guangzhou, and you can appoint them with confidence, they are already our own people." ”
As soon as the phantom left, Jenna sent over the list of foreigners who had joined her, only saying that they were joining her, because they recognized Li Yi, not the country of the Qing Dynasty, and they were equal to losing their nationality when they joined her, and Li Yi also knew very well what they were looking forward to.
Li Yi couldn't help but sigh, calculating the time, he has been in this era for two years, and the time is about to enter 1887, at the beginning, he was busy but did not make any achievements, now whether it is the army or the huge business empire he founded, he has entered a benign development, and he is a lot more leisurely, listening to reports every day, signing a few documents, the court has Zhang Zhidong and Bao Nian to cover themselves, and there are Jenna, Phantom, Marcus and so on for themselves.
Li Yi looked at the two rifles on the table, and the mortar design drawings, and pondered in his heart. Now that it is certain that the traveler is a German, then Germany's military development can be said to be certain that it will surpass Germany in another time and space, and the outcome of the First World War is debatable.
The emergence of mortars can be said to be a major progress in military development, and Germany in World War I, another time and space, used heavy artillery to assemble and use indiscriminate bombing tactics to block the advance of the British and French forces, but in the end it still failed.
At that time, Germany mobilized more than 600 heavy guns, the largest caliber reached 220 mm, even such a powerful artillery group bombardment did not stop the advance of the British and French forces, you must know that the number of shells fired at the beginning was more than 30,000 shells, this number was unimaginable in World War I.
The reason for this is that the heavy artillery is too heavy, and it takes a lot of manpower to arrange the position, and then there is that after being discovered by the enemy, the artillery group is too slow to move, and the artillery group is blown up by the enemy before the transfer is completed.
But now with mortars, these can be changed, and in another time and space, the ** teams have mastered the use of mortars, and the ** squadrons are equipped with a large number of mortars.
The mortar is the most powerful weapon for the army's fire suppression, and it can fire any type of ammunition except for armor-piercing shells. One of his biggest characteristics is that it is light, and the 60 mm caliber mortar equipped with the squadron weighs only 3.6 kg. With such a weight, a soldier can carry it for a five-kilometer speed, so its maneuverability is unparalleled.
Although the current material technology cannot produce such a light mortar, the weight of a 60mm mortar is only 11 kilograms, and Li Yi's own arsenal weighs only 8.6 kilograms due to the use of high-strength steel plates produced by American steel mills.
Although the two rifles on the table are very similar in appearance, this is the most strange question for Li Yi, to say that he is a traverser, it is impossible not to know the importance of the miniaturization of bullet caliber.
The rifle brought back from Germany is called the MS86 rifle, which is already the standard weapon of major Western powers, but it uses 7.62 mm large-caliber bullets, while Li Yi's own military factory uses 5.8 mm caliber bullets.
Gun fans who are familiar with firearms know that large-caliber rifles are heavy, unstable in shooting, and have low continuous firing accuracy, while small-caliber rifles are lightweight, have high continuous firing accuracy, and have much less recoil, which will greatly reduce the burden on soldiers.
Anyone who shoots targets knows that firing five bullets in a row with those old-fashioned large-caliber rifles will make your shoulders hurt a lot, and if you fire dozens of bullets in a row, your shoulders will hurt and you can't sleep at night.
Li Yi didn't understand why he didn't design the rifle according to the small-caliber as a crosser, the small-caliber rifle does not mean that the lethality is low, and the tumbling bullet will tear a large wound area after entering the human body, which is much more powerful than the famous 38 big cover in later generations, and its continuous shooting accuracy is twice as strong as that of 7.62 caliber within 600 meters.
