"If we still use the previous infantry tactics and directly charge frontally in a dense formation, I am afraid that we will be used as a target, but now we use the ambush tactical action in the new tactics, and we can also try a small and short-distance rapid leap in addition to counterattacking, and then use the enemy's shooting gap to rush to the ditch under the cover of firepower!"

"In addition, Brother Wan does not think that when the soldiers are shot, the action of lying down and counterattacking is a bit complicated, maybe it can be streamlined a little more, for example, after being shot, you don't need to stop and then lie down, you can use the forward rush to fall directly to the ground, so that the time should be shortened in terms of time!"

"I think it's possible, but I'm afraid the specific actions will be discussed again......" The officer surnamed Wan looked excited when he heard this, and immediately talked to the officer surnamed Fang about infantry tactical movements.

Meng Enyuan on the side also heard their conversation, and was somewhat surprised by their actions, this big enemy At present, the two of you didn't think about how to defeat the enemy with specific tactics, but actually talked about infantry tactical movements, which had to make Meng Enyuan muttered again: The people in the education department under Lin Yongquan are not normal people.

The officers surnamed Fang and Wan were not Meng Enyuan's subordinates, the two of them were military attachés sent by the Education Department to observe the battle, in the name of learning and accumulating experience, but the main task of these two people was to inspect the actual combat situation of the various tactical applications used by the current Third Mixed Formation.

Because the Third Mixed Association has used a large number of new tactics to train soldiers in the past year, and these new tactics are convincing in theory, but theory is always theory, which has not been tested by large-scale wars, even Zhao Dongyun, the founder of new tactics, does not dare to guarantee that the infantry tactics of later generations will be applicable in this era.

After all, every tactic has its own uniqueness or limitations, including the theory of war, including the application of various new weapons, and so on. For example, the German infantry tactics during World War II in later generations, its core is the squad general-purpose machine gun, so before it is equipped with a similar general-purpose machine gun, it is impossible to copy the infantry tactics of the Germans.

Another example is the infantry tactics used in the United States in World War II, which paid more attention to the combat capability of individual soldiers, which was based on the premise that semi-automatic rifles and submachine guns were equipped on a large scale, and the firepower of the guide team was greatly improved, which was not better than relying on the machine guns of the team.

Even if it is more familiar to later generations and is more suitable for the backward army's three-three infantry tactics, it is also based on the premise of popularizing squad light machine guns and having a large number of 60-millimeter mortars.

The tactics of every era have their own requirements of the times, and it will be dead to copy them rashly.

The so-called new infantry tactics that Zhao Dongyun has come up with in the past two years are actually nondescript, ostensibly referring to a large number of infantry tactics during World War II, but considering the actual equipment level of the Third Mixed Association, many specific tactics are inconsistent, and even in order to concentrate infantry firepower, the infantry tactics of the Third Mixed Association still use dense troops to a large extent.

Otherwise, the stragglers without the support of light machine guns of the squad would not be able to form an effective fire strike network at all.

It is precisely because the new tactics adopted by the Third Mixed Association have many defects and areas that need to be improved, and Zhao Dongyun often only puts forward a theoretical concept, such as the defense with machine guns as the core, the attack adopts covert approach, rapid leaping, and so on, but it is many officers within the Third Mixed Association who have perfected these tactical theories, especially those members of the Education Section.

In the early days, it was specifically responsible for the training of recruits, and in the middle of the period, the affairs of conscription were also assigned to the management of the Education Section, and then the Education Section was responsible for the training of recruits, and at the same time, it was also responsible for the guidance and supervision of the training of the whole army, so the Education Section was responsible for all training regulations and manuals.

After the Third Association officially became the Third Mixed Association, the Education Section also became the official establishment and already had a number of departments directly under it, including the Conscription Department, the Recruit Barracks, and the Supervision and Exercise Office, among which the Supervision and Exercise Office had the greatest power, responsible for the training affairs of the whole army, and issued a variety of training guidance documents.

The officer surnamed Wan and the officer surnamed Fang are the members of the Supervision and Exercise Department of the Education Section, and the official rank is not high, one is a garrison, and the other is a capital division, if the field troops are released, they are at most a team officer. If you look at it from a modern perspective, it is the rank of captain and lieutenant.

However, although their officials are not high, they have very great power, and the work they do is actually no different from what Feng Guozhang did. The only difference is that Feng Guozhang, the general office of the Coaching Office of the Beiyang Military Political Department, is responsible for the training, establishment, and other affairs of the entire Beiyang New Army, while the officers of the Supervision and Exercise Office are only responsible for the internal training affairs of the Third Mixed Association.

The officers of the two supervision offices didn't care much about the current battle, but instead fell into a discussion about what tactical actions to do after the attack on the new infantry, Meng Enyuan was looking at the other officers around him, and most of them were talking to each other, although the topics they said were mostly related to today's battle, but judging from their relaxed expressions, they didn't take today's battle to heart.

For middle- and high-ranking military officers such as Meng Enyuan and Liu Fufu, there was no suspense about the encirclement and suppression of Hongjiatun, and they did not worry or even feel the cruelty of the war.

However, for the low-level soldiers, especially those on the front line of the attack, they were directly threatened with their lives, and they were all afraid.

In the face of the enemy's constant shooting, even if they didn't hit themselves, but after watching their comrades around them being hit, few people would be indifferent, although they would not panic after rigorous training, but there was fear in their hearts, and even their feet trembled and their hands were trembling.

Even a veteran like Han Duotian, who has been in the army for many years, couldn't help but have his heart beat faster, gasping for air to calm his tension, and scolding and swearing to himself to relieve the tension in his heart. Therefore, even if it is a real veteran on the battlefield, it is impossible to face bullets and shells indifferently, unlike the recruits, the recruits will forget their various tactical actions and even turn around and run away after being frightened by bullets and shells, and although the veterans are also afraid, they are afraid but do not forget their various tactical actions.

It's normal and understandable to be scared on the battlefield, and what you need is not to reject these feelings, but to try to alleviate them, and not to let them affect your actual movements.

Han Duotian, like many veterans, was also scolding, but now he was alone in the ditch, and his closest comrade-in-arms was still more than ten meters behind, and he was already clearly aware of his danger when he was fighting alone, but he was not frightened to hug his head and cry in the ditch, but scolded and kept shooting.

"Haha, I finally hit, I thought you all had three heads and six arms, it turned out that you would also have braids if you were hit, haha!" After Han Duotian finished firing two magazines, he finally made his first hit, knocking down a bandit more than 300 meters away with one shot.

Before he finished laughing, there were several clouds of smoke and dust next to him, which were bullets from the bandits' counterattack, which frightened Han Duotian to retract his head in a hurry again, and scolded in his mouth: "Dog, the reaction is so fast!" ”

After he squatted down, he began to load new bullets, and when he was full of bullets, he did not stand up directly and fight back in the same position, but bent his waist into a small gap more than ten meters away, and then cautiously poked the gun out, aimed and shot, missed, shot again, or missed, when he fired the third shot, a bandit lying on the low wall on the opposite side suddenly leaned back, the bullet not only opened a hole in the front door of his head, but also the huge impact turned his whole person backwards.

This is the era of full-power rifle bullets, and the rifle pursues a range and power of nearly a kilometer, and a mere 300 meters is enough for a rifle bullet to tear a person's body apart.

Of course, the premise is that you have to hit the enemy, for the rear-loading gun, the range and power of the rifle is no longer a problem, the main problem is long-range aiming, hundreds of meters away, without the assistance of the scope, it is difficult to aim accurately with the naked eye.

This is also the reason why the rifle range is getting longer and farther, but the combat distance of the rifle has always been maintained at about 300 meters, and it is also the reason why intermediate power bullets appeared in later generations, because people found that the combat distance of the rifle rarely exceeded 400 meters, and most of them were concentrated between 200 meters and 300 meters.

Han Duotian's marksmanship is not very good, but he is also a veteran who has been in the army for many years, not to mention the top marksmanship, but there is still a middle and upper level, and a group of people on the opposite side stand behind the low wall for you to fight, it is impossible to hit a hundred shots, but if you shoot a few more shots, you can hit a few.

Han Duotian shot a few bullets in the ditch alone, and after the bandits on the opposite side reacted, he ran to the other side of the ditch to shoot a few more shots, although his shooting accuracy was not high, but he couldn't stand him from shooting continuously, when Han Duotian hit the fourth bandit, the bandits on the opposite side had already specially dispatched more than 20 guns to suppress the ditch, because Han Duotian shot a different place, they thought that there were already many Beiyang Army soldiers in the ditch.

The bandits increased their firepower to suppress Han Duotian, making Han Duotian dangerous for a while!

Han Duotian, who had just finished a shot, only felt a chill in his ears, but when he reached out and touched it, he found that his right ear was wet and warm, and when he looked closely, his hand was full of blood!
