Chapter 461: Army Fine-tuning (I)

When Wang Guorui took out this new type of rifle and general-purpose machine gun of the Chinese gun family and showed it to those officers, those officers obviously couldn't put it down. Because this firearm is not only powerful, but also designed by his own people, this feeling is not ordinary. Any soldier wants to use weapons produced in his own country, and this is not only related to the security of national weapons logistics, but also personal emotional pride. Previously, Taiwan had always used foreign weapons, with German Mauser rifles for rifles and Maxine for machine guns. As for the grenadier and the Stern submachine gun, they were designed by themselves. However, at present, the rifles mainly used by the troops are foreign goods, which makes many officers uncomfortable. Now that I've finally designed my own rifle, that's obviously a great thing.

"Lord Wang, this is great. I didn't expect this rifle to be semi-automatic, and you can continue firing without pulling the bolt for a shot. Even, if the fast and slow machine is removed, it can be used as a submachine gun! Hu Wei said.

And Zhao Xi, commander of the Taiwan Theater, immediately said: "No, no, no, after dismantling the fast and slow machine, not only is it not a submachine gun, it should be called an automatic rifle." Although our current Stern submachine gun seems to be able to fire continuously, this Stern submachine gun actually uses pistol bullets, so the range of the pistol bullets is too close. The effective range of the pistol bullet is only fifty meters, and every time you want to suppress the enemy, you must let the soldiers charge in front, otherwise there is no way to suppress the enemy. And with this automatic rifle, the soldier can completely suppress the enemy very well, as long as the fast and slow machine is dismantled, this can be completely solved. ”

However, Li Fusheng, director of the General Office of the Central Military Commission, immediately said: "No, no, no, haven't you heard?" Lord Wang demanded strict control that the soldiers could not be allowed to dismantle the fast and slow machines at will, and that they could only dismantle the fast and slow machines with the permission of the squad leader. Because once you use an automatic rifle, I'm afraid that the next bullet consumption will be a huge amount. Our shipping capacity simply can't keep up. If a soldier gets into the habit of wasting bullets, it's a terrible thing for us. Bullets can't be wasted, especially since we can't keep up with our productivity at the moment. In addition, the transportation capacity cannot keep up, and our transportation capacity is not enough to be able to transport bullets to the front line in a timely and effective manner. If we don't save some bullets in the front, then I'm afraid we will all lose a lot in the future. Firearms without bullets. It's better than a knife! ”

However, although there are such and such shortcomings, everyone still recognizes it very much, because this is a rifle designed by themselves. If nothing else, the army will gradually replace these rifles of their own design, and they will adjust the army.

"Guys, now that we've designed this rifle, we'll be able to produce it in mass production soon. And then, our army will be heavily equipped with these new weapons. We have complete intellectual property rights for these weapons. Don't worry about being controlled by foreigners. And the parameters of all abilities are significantly better than those rifles designed specifically for Westerners, and are more suitable for the physique of our Easterners. And the power of the bullet will not only not become smaller, but will be very powerful because of the good braking ability of the bullet, so the tumbling caused by it. So, what do you think of the plan to fully equip our weapons and troops? Wang Guorui asked.

"No problem, I don't have any opinions, I think our soldiers will love this weapon very much!" Zhao Xi said immediately.

"Yes. As long as there are no serious quality problems, then the army will definitely like these weapons very much. I think we're going to have to get the soldiers to use these weapons. Then use our own weapons on the battlefield to kill the enemy, so that their morale will definitely be higher. Li Fusheng also replied.

Everyone agreed with everything, because then everyone recognized the importance of these weapons, and the weapons were all good. As long as these weapons can be equipped in the hands of soldiers, the soldiers will be more effective and more powerful.

"Still. After equipping ourselves with these weapons, we will inevitably have to make certain fine-tuning in the establishment of our armed forces. If we don't fine-tune it, then we will definitely not be able to handle the next military duties. Therefore, I decided to discuss the fine-tuning of the army, especially the fine-tuning of the low-level establishment. First of all we have this universal machine gun. We can bring the machine guns down to the platoon level, so that each platoon adds a machine gun squad and uses two general-purpose machine guns, which strengthens the firepower advantage of the lower army. Wang Guorui said.

Generally speaking, according to the standards of later generations, there should be at least two machine guns in a class, that is, there are two machine guns in a class of ten people. But Wang Guorui can't do this, not to mention that the army in this era doesn't need to be so "extravagant", let's just say that Wang Guorui is not willing to spend this unjust money. Even if Wang Guorui is willing to spend this unjust money, he can't transport the bullets he buys! In the case of insufficient transport capacity, it would be insane to let the soldiers have such extravagance two machine guns per squad. Therefore, at present, Taiwan's army also says that there is a machine gun squad in the infantry platoon, and such a platoon has two machine guns, which is the only scorpion in the world.

At present, although the use of machine guns has increased all over the world, even wealthy countries such as Britain, France, and the United States have begun to equip submachine guns in large quantities. At this time, the submachine gun was no longer a rare weapon because of Wang Guorui's butterfly effect. All countries with a little money have also begun to equip themselves with submachine guns, so that they can be replenished with firepower. As for the Russian old Maozi, if you don't mention this, their infantry can't afford to use a rifle per person, and as for the submachine gun, I'm afraid only the Tsar's Guards can use it.

However, people used submachine guns, and they immediately used light machine guns, and this level has really improved more than a notch! Therefore, maintaining the strength of firepower is the basis for maintaining the strength of Taiwan's army. At present, Taiwan's armed forces are also relying on weapons to win, but there will be no problems. In this day and age, it's about weapons, not about individual willpower. So the human body was nothing at all before steel and fire. With these weapons, it must rely on weapons!

"Two machine guns in a platoon, this lesson is really good." "Yes! There are two machine guns, and there are semi-automatic rifles used by the infantry, and the firepower at the bottom has increased by more than five times! "Yes! The firepower has increased so much, it can be said that it is invincible in the world. "Whoever dares to bully us, we will clean him up!"

These officers all felt extremely excited, it has always been foreign countries that have used their weapon superiority to bully the Chinese army, and now they finally have more powerful weapons, and they can completely bully the gringos in turn, this feeling is really refreshing. So everyone started talking about it.

"Okay, since the firepower at the bottom is so strong, we can make up the firepower that is equipped with support. I intend to abolish the large establishment of machine-gun battalions in the future, and in the future the infantry division may consider abolishing the establishment of machine-gun battalions and then use the soldiers elsewhere. ”

"Also, we have consolidated the machine gun company and artillery company under each infantry battalion into a new machine gun company. The machine gun company was subordinate to two mortar platoons, as well as two machine gun platoons. However, the machine gun squad here used Maxine large-caliber heavy machine guns with a caliber of eleven millimeters. In the future, this heavy machine gun will be used to attack the enemy's equipment, as well as light cover, and provide long-range cover, so it will not generally be used to suppress the enemy's infantry. Their duties will undergo a series of adjustments to allow them to train and change their mindset before they can adapt to their new duties. ”

"The machine gun platoon and artillery platoon under each infantry company will also be combined into a new machine gun platoon, consisting of two machine gun squads and two mortar squads respectively. The machine gun squad uses a general-purpose machine gun with a tripod to carry out shock attacks against the troops in the medium and short range of fire support and to suppress the enemy's living forces. ”

Wang Guorui planned to abolish the establishment of the machine gun battalion, and in the future, all units would not use such a large machine gun unit as the machine gun battalion. Because the fire at the bottom of the soldier was already fierce enough, there was no need to use such too many machine guns. The various units below will also take on the task of fire support, and the machine gun company and artillery will be combined to reduce their strength. After all, the firepower at the bottom was already fierce enough, and there was no need for them to continue to have so much support firepower. If you continue to maintain such heavy firepower, it will not be used at all. According to the experience of later generations, the firepower at the bottom is sufficient, and these combat fire support units are often not needed. The soldiers at the bottom of the problem have been solved, and there is no need for the fire support of the troops from above. So since there is no need for it, what should we do with them, quickly abolish the establishment and let them go to other units to transfer to other units. The army is definitely not a place to eat empty salaries for the elderly, everyone must have their own role, otherwise let them eat empty salaries here, then they will have to get it?

"Lord Wang, I want to talk about it next. Since our firepower is so strong, do our special forces still exist? Our special forces don't seem to need it, these units have enough firepower in a dream, and there are light fire support weapons such as general-purpose machine guns, so what use is there for our special forces? Hu Wei asked. (To be continued......)
