“…… On the other hand, at the time of Xiao Lang's later assassination. ”

The topic of northern latitudes has suddenly shifted to another category.

"The two Assassins had winding crossbows in their hands, but the more vigilant guards should have reacted in time before they raised their crossbows and pulled their swords, if they had been armed not with bulky rifles, but with light pistols."

"Xiao Lang himself is wearing an imitation May Fourth pistol."

Feng Yufei said, but Beiwei shook his head:

"Xiao Lang's attention at that time must have been on dealing with the opposing commander, and only the guards could pay attention to the surrounding situation in time - but for a long time, our security personnel did not have special weapons, and they all used Qionghai rifles directly. This is no problem on a regular battlefield where the situation between friend and foe is clear. The range advantage of 400 meters makes it difficult for the enemy to get close to us, but when the shape becomes complicated, the identification of friend and foe is not so obvious, and we cannot shoot from a long distance, the range advantage of the rifle cannot be brought into play. ”

"Yes, since the dispatch of troops to Dengzhou, our soldiers have encountered various sneak attacks many times, most of them disguised as civilians or with the help of terrain, dark ...... Wait until you get closer before you start - the advantage of the Qionghai rifle in this case is not obvious. Even if it is changed to five or six halves in the future, it is estimated that there will not be much improvement in this regard. ”

Ao Sayan next to him also interjected, and Beiwei nodded and added:

"As our power expands, the situations we encounter will certainly become more and more complex, and the weapons we need cannot be limited to being dominant on the battlefield, but need to be more flexible, small, and powerful. Or to put it more bluntly - our military wants to have such a weapon: it does not require a lot of range, but it must shoot fast, and it can be used as a supplement to the Type 5 or 6 semi-automatic rifle. It allows our fighters to have more rapid and powerful firepower than ordinary rifles at a range of 100 meters. At the same time, it is also required to be relatively lightweight and easy to carry to meet the needs of special operations, for example. security, secret fronts and other needs. ”

Feng Yufei has been recording Beiwei's requirements, and when he heard Beiwei say this, a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I think I know what you're thinking, that's what you need......"

She worked on the computer connected to the projector for a few moments, finding the corresponding illustrated book from the database and projecting it onto the big screen. And everyone in the room laughed when they saw the image - even the least concerned about military affairs could easily recognize the weapon in the picture, because the square-headed iron guy was all too familiar to the Chinese in the twentieth century. Whether it is a film or television work or a literary record, as long as it involves "before liberation". All the things that have to do with war will inevitably mention such weapons.

-- Self-deed, fast and slow machine, twenty shots, pot-bellied box, barge gun, box gun...... The people who played it out of the flower gave it all kinds of nicknames, so that not many people knew its real name - the Mauser military pistol, a born in Germany. In the end, it was the immortal youth on the battlefield in China, and the battlefield evergreen that was used from the Xinhai Revolution to the Korean War was the same as AK47 and Colt 1911. It is also a classic in the firearms industry that "because the design is too perfect, it almost does not need to be improved at all, so that it can be used for decades".

As soon as this gun was proposed, it was unanimously approved by almost all the members of the military group present. Everyone believes that having such a weapon capable of automatic burst fire in close combat can indeed greatly increase the firepower and safety of soldiers. In a sense, its practicality is even greater than that of five or six rushes -- it is impossible for a soldier to carry five or six halves and five or six rushes to the battlefield at the same time. But equipping elite troops with five or six semi-automatic rifles and twenty automatic pistols at the same time is normal. There is no conflict between the uses of each other. In any case, the Joan Navy soldiers were almost immune to enemy attacks from a distance of 100 meters, and they could calmly aim and shoot with their rifles at long distances. Wait for the enemy to approach or enter a complex environment, and then switch to automatic pistol to sweep - the two can form a good complementary relationship.

"The only trouble is the need to carry two types of bullets...... But it's not a big deal. In addition, the muzzle jump problem of automatic pistols is relatively strict, and if it is not used well, it will not hit people at all. It takes a lot of practice. ”

Zhao Lide talked with great interest about the advantages and disadvantages of automatic pistols, and his intelligence department needed this weapon more than the military -- it was impossible for intelligence officers to carry rifles to swagger through the market, and in the past they could only rely on a small number of imitation May Fourth pistols to support the field. However, the eight-round ammunition capacity and the semi-automatic mode of pulling the trigger and firing one shot are often ineffective in an emergency. And with the common clothing of this era, hiding a twenty-ring in the robe, it is completely impossible to see the clue. If necessary, take it out and sweep a shuttle, and any court master and hero will only have the life of hitting the street.

Feng Yufei and Xu Hui muttered and discussed for a long time, and finally decided that Xu Hui would stand up and pour a little cold water on everyone - automatic weapons are good, but with the current processing capacity of the industrial group, it is still a bit reluctant to mass-produce this kind of fully automatic firearm.

"How so? Aren't we even able to build a five- or six-punch imitation AK47? The box cannon is a much older weapon than the AK47, so why can't it be produced? ”

Ye Mengyan jumped up when he heard it, but Xu Hui was not in a hurry, pulled Huang Jiancheng, and gave everyone another technical lesson. talked about many detailed problems such as steel performance, machining accuracy, etc., and listened dizzily to a technical layman like Ye Mengyan, and finally finally heard a general meaning from a large number of technical terms:

-- With the current level of technology of the Qiong Navy, it is only about the same as the technical processing capacity of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Then, the matching weapon research and development should be almost the product of that era - artillery is basically like this, and firearms should have gone through the old road of bolt-action rifles first: for example, Mauser 98K, Enfield, Mosin Nagan Water Lianzhu, 38 big covers, etc., pull the big bolt and rebound, and then slowly move to automatic/semi-automatic weapons that use the principle of piston gas conduction.

However, who let the group of people in the Qiong Navy be hanged, their technical reserves far exceed their actual processing capacity. The future development path of firearms and weapons is also extremely clear, plus there are two ready-made five or six halves as imitation templates. Therefore, in the selection of firearms, the industrial group directly skipped the bolting stage, and did not blindly pursue the pursuit of high-speed and long-range full-power ammunition, but directly walked on the path of only medium range from the beginning, while trying to pursue shooting accuracy and ease of use.

So what Feng Yufei said by "one-step" essentially means that their firearm design has been ahead of its time, beyond the current technological production capacity. Of course, since the industrial team dared to put forward this plan, of course, they also weighed and considered it repeatedly, Xu Hui and Huang Jiancheng felt that they were sure to solve the difficulties in the production process, so they agreed to go directly to five or six halves.

However, semi-automatic weapons can be appropriately used to advance in design, and automatic weapons may not be the same -- it is indeed very pleasant to pull the trigger and shoot it out, but the reliability requirements for the firearm mechanism are far from being comparable to those of semi-automatic weapons with one shot. Especially in the barrel and bolt mechanism, the fatigue of metal will far exceed that of semi-automatic weapons, and the probability of failure will naturally increase greatly.

"Then how can five or six punches be produced?"

Ye Mengyan still remembered his AK47, and Xu Hui also gave him a very clear response - because AK47 was designed by Lao Maozi! Mao Zi goods are rough and solid, do not pick materials and do not pick technology, only use the most ordinary materials, the simplest process, but can achieve a better effect, this characteristic is vividly reflected in the AK47 weapon. Therefore, even with the current rudimentary technology of the Qiong Navy, it is still somewhat certain to imitate Maozi goods. However, they did not dare to manufacture in large quantities, so they only agreed to produce small batches first, and then slowly improve in practice. In fact, the choice of five or six and a half copies of the former Soviet Union's SKS rifle is also considered in the same way, and the reliability rate of semi-automatic rifles is higher, so they dare to directly enter the stage of mass equipment.

But now the Mauser automatic pistol demanded by the military group - it was a product of the Germans! German goods have always been known for precision and the pursuit of perfection. The historical Mauser pistol was created in 1895, but at that time there was only a semi-automatic version. Later, after some "small" changes, it has a fully automatic rapid-fire capability, and can even be used as a submachine gun after barging a wooden case holster, which is the weapon that the military team needs.

But how much time did the great German military-industrial complex take to complete this "small" change? -- Thirty-five years! It was not until 1931 that a rapid-fire version of the Mauser military pistol with a fast and slow machine appeared. Of course, there are various reasons for this, such as changes in operational thinking and battlefield needs, but the delicate and difficult to change characteristics of German goods are also reflected here.

"Of course, if the military team must ask for it, we can also make it. However, the life of the barrel, bolt and various other parts may not be comparable to that of the historical original. The finished product will certainly be fine at first, but after a period of use, the chance of jamming is likely to increase significantly. And for an automatic weapon, this will be the most fatal flaw. ”

Xu Hui's truth-telling made all the members of the military team who were excited just now fall silent. It would be nice to say that I didn't mention it before, but now that there is such a good thing in front of us, it is unpleasant to hope for some "technical reasons". (To be continued......)
