Chapter 395: Recovering Southern Liaoning 10
It is indeed true that man's subjective initiative is limited by material conditions. However, under the condition of abundant materials, people's subjective initiative can be fully or even exerted.
Let's take the original soldiers of the Dongjiang Army, the original Dongjiang Revival Army, and the current soldier Zhao Changzi of the First Army of the Revival Army in southern Liaoning. Zhao Changzi, who was originally a supplementary force, a second-line army, and a member of the garrison army, spent less than two months seizing all the time and training himself with several times the time and strength of ordinary soldiers. Finally, he was discovered by a commander of the unit, and he was transferred from the Dongjiang Revival Army to the front-line troops, and the First Army of the Revival Army in southern Liaoning Province, which had been performing field tasks for a long time.
The objective reason that prompted Zhao's eldest son to become a sharpshooter was of course because the Fuxing Army provided him with bullets and firearms that could be fully trained. However, the subjective reason that allowed Zhao Changzi to devote all his strength to training was that Zhao Changzi had an unforgettable hatred for the Houjin Jurchen regime, the enemy who slaughtered his family.
In just two months, Zhao's eldest son changed from a soldier of the local warlord army of the Ming Dynasty who originally used a spear as a weapon to a Baath Army sniper who used a sniper rifle with a scope and a copy of the Mosingana sniper rifle from the Baath Party military factory.
It was the first time that Zhao's eldest son participated in the actual battle against the Jin Fu commander who was stationed in southern Liaoning with the blue banner, the Jurchen Qiding who was in charge of the five Niu Lu, the Mongolian Qi Ding who was in charge of the five Niu Lu, and the Jiala Ezhen Yue Cha Akton who was 3,000 Han people Bao Yi Aha .
Although Acton's eyesight was good, he was not much different from a blind man with no sight compared to the Renaissance Army, which was equipped with radios and telescopes.
The Revival Army, which adheres to the same military principle of "concentrating superior forces to fight a war of annihilation" as the glorious and great army of later generations, does not have the same strong marching ability and outstanding command experts as the glorious and great army of later generations, but through the advanced technology they have mastered across the era, the Revival Army can make up for its shortcomings in marching ability and command ability, and bring into play the advanced tactical thinking of "concentrating superior forces to fight a war of annihilation."
Whoever has mastered advanced communication technology, who moves fast, and who is fully prepared will be able to selectively grasp the position of the battlefield and the time of battle, and thus thoroughly gain superiority in all aspects.
Zhao's eldest son's unit only had a company, five platoons, and about 250 troops. On the Yuecha Akdun side, there was a Jurchen Niulu and a Mongolian Niulu, with a total of more than 600 people and nearly 700 troops.
In its military contacts with the Later Jin Jurchens, the First Army Corps of Southern Liaoning believed that as long as its own strength reached about 30 percent of the opponent's strength, it could be regarded as a state of balance between its own strength and an enemy three times its size.
At present, our own strength is at 50 percent of the enemy's strength, and Chu Yusheng, the company commander of the second company of the sixth battalion of the first regiment of the first army corps in southern Liaoning of the revival army, who is carrying out the task of "cleaning up," believes that his company is in a state of superior strength. This company can completely annihilate the troops of Yuecha Actun who went out of the city to investigate.
The Renaissance Army scouts constantly reported to the 2nd Company on the movement of the Yuecha Acton troops. The Second Company, which had sufficient information, set up its position early on the way out of the city to investigate in Acton.
In the Ba'ath Army, especially in the Renaissance Army's mobile units, snipers can generally be set up down to the platoon level. In each platoon of the Ba'ath Army, there are two or three snipers.
A platoon of the Baath Army generally has five squads. In general, the total number of soldiers in a platoon is around fifty. A platoon is equipped with a platoon commander, a deputy platoon commander, a teaching chief, a staff officer, and a medical chief. The chief medical officer of each platoon leads five hygienists and is responsible for the medical and health work of the soldiers in the platoon.
That is to say, in a platoon, the number of grassroots officers, plus squad leaders, deputy squad leaders, and instructors, has reached almost half of the total number of soldiers. There are 20 junior officers in a platoon, plus 50 soldiers, and a platoon with a total of 70 people is only equipped with two or three snipers.
Scarce things are expensive, which makes snipers rarer and more popular in the grassroots than machine gunners and rocketeers who use simple versions of RPGs produced by Baath military factories.
Let's take Zhao Changzi as an example, in his platoon, whether it is a soldier or an officer, everyone wears the same military coat with a gray fur collar. However, he and the other sniper were specially equipped with a white tweed cloak concealment suit with a hat.
The cloak is a thing with the fashionable and avant-garde meaning of "booming" in Hokkien, not to mention that the teaching commander and platoon commander do not have it, even the chief teaching and the battalion commander are not mixed. Even Wang Shuhui, as the general political commissar of the Renaissance Army, was not equipped with such a special and explosive thing.
But all the Snipers of the Baath Army had one of these cloaks for the sake of concealment.
Not only the cloak, but the sniper is equipped with a telescope that is not even a deputy squad leader, and only the squad leader and above commanders can be equipped with a sniper rifle. This makes the sniper especially the envy of everyone.
However, none of the fighters who can be snipers are the kind of flamboyant and unstable character. Maybe during the usual rest time, some of the boys will be a little proud and complacent, and they will be a little smug at every turn. But on the battlefield, they are often the calmest, lowest-key and most inconspicuous existence.
Zhao's eldest son may have been born with this quality of being a sniper. Unlike those new snipers who require a lot of training, Zhao Changzi, who has a lot of experience in hunting, is particularly easy to get into the state. His performance in training has been greatly admired by some veteran snipers.
The same is true of the situation now.
Through the scope, I saw that when the leader of the Jurchen soldiers on the opposite side, who was wearing blue armor with red edges and a lightning rod and iron helmet, got off his horse, unlike another sniper in the platoon, he was not like another sniper in the platoon, so he breathed too fast because of nervousness, which caused his muzzle to shake slightly, and Zhao Changzi, who had a deep hatred with the Jurchens, breathed smoothly and was emotionally calm.
The eldest son of Zhao, who was half-squatting in the trench with his waist, used his scope to firmly trap Yue Cha Actun, who was unaware that he was standing in front of the group of white-armored soldiers who dismounted with his sword and wore armor, howling loudly. As Yue Cha Actun's figure moved back and forth, Zhao's eldest son moved his muzzle steadily.
Of course, Acton didn't know that there were snipers in the Renaissance Army.
Acton knew that the archers were like this. Whether in the Eight Banners or among the Mongols, the concept of a marksman is very common. The sharpshooter who shoots accurately is usually the personal servant of the high-ranking leader. Acton, however, felt that a marksman who was only capable of archery was not as useful as a soldier who could charge in heavy armor.
Acton was still very surprised when he suddenly discovered the position of the second company.
For him, who has a lot of experience in warfare, it is very difficult to ambush others in such bad weather. The troops that can do this can be regarded as strong soldiers. Therefore, Acton immediately thought that it was necessary for him to retreat quickly with his six or seven hundred subordinates
