Chapter 166: Type 69 Tank

The sniper rifles we needed were shipped in a week, 300 SVDs in all.

This made the soldiers very happy, especially the soldiers of the third company, because they knew that these sniper rifles were used to equip the third company...... Sniper company, what else can you use without a sniper rifle?

But the orders I gave quickly failed them......

"No sniper rifles are allowed, but trained with Type 56 submachine guns!"

Why...... I knew that the sniper rifle was a valuable resource for us at this time...... You must know that this batch of SVDs are all Soviet-made SVDs, which means that each one was handed over from the Yue devils, which means that the first one was exchanged for the blood and lives of the soldiers.

Indeed, Commander Zhang said that our own sniper rifles will come out soon. But...... As far as I know, our own sniper rifles were not mass-produced until 81. That is to say...... For at least more than a year, our own sniper rifles of our own production have problems of one kind or another.

So...... If we want to maintain combat effectiveness, if we want to have sniper rifles on the battlefield...... Then you have to protect these weapons well during your usual training.

"Battalion commander!" Company Commander Luo was obviously a little itchy, so he asked more: "It's reasonable to say that other companies are not equipped with sniper rifles, but we are a sniper company, so we have to equip a few to make the soldiers familiar with it......"

"You've already seen the training subjects!" I didn't answer the rhetorical question.

"Look!" Company Commander Luo nodded.

"What are some of the training subjects at the beginning?"

"Retreat, disguise, sneak, lurk......" only then did a few Luo Company Commanders seem to realize something, so they don't say any more.

"That's right!" I said, "Now that you're practicing these subjects, what are you letting the soldiers do with sniper rifles on their backs?" Let these treasures go up and rust them? ”

So Company Commander Luo had nothing more to say.

What surprised me was. In the afternoon, another batch of new equipment arrived.

What surprised me even more was that this batch of new equipment was still a Type 69 tank......

What surprised me even more. It was a woman who came up with these tanks...... A fashionably dressed woman!

"Are you Camp Commander Yang? These tanks need to be signed for! The woman handed me a document in somewhat awkward Chinese. Then he pointed to the bottom right corner and said, "Sign here!" ”

I looked at the woman with some strange eyes, and the warriors looked at her with curiosity...... It's not because she came with a tank, it's not because she's pretty...... In fact, it is partly because she is beautiful, but even more because of her dress...... Wears gold-rimmed glasses, jeans and a pair of sneakers under white overalls.

I feel that this woman has a bit of a "modern" taste, because I haven't seen jeans and sneakers for a long time, especially women.

"You're not Chinese, are you?" I asked in passing when I signed it, and the reason I asked it was because she had a weird accent.

"I'm Chinese!" She replied, "But I grew up in the United States!" My surname is Lee. It's called Li Li...... His English name is ...... Forget it, you don't understand it! ”

As soon as I heard her such arrogant words, I couldn't help but feel a little angry in my heart, mother! This is looking at Lao Tzu...... Lao Tzu said that he also passed the fourth level of English, but he just let people take the test on his behalf!

Because my English level is indeed limited, I don't have the same knowledge as her, and then asked: "Then what ......is your job?"

"I'm here to test these equipment!" Li Li pointed to the Type 69 tanks and said, "Simply put...... It's you who use, I observe, I write, and then solve the problem...... Got it? ”

"Oh!" Li Li is not very fluent in Chinese, but I still understand it. It turned out to be a weapons specialist...... So I thought to myself: This Li Li is from the United States...... Does this mean that the United States supports China to some extent?

This is very likely...... The United States did not want to provoke the Soviet Union too much, so it let some Chinese Americans or Chinese who had lived and studied in the United States return to China with jishu. In this way, you can achieve your goal without leaving any talk...... It's a very clever trick indeed.

But I soon found out what was wrong......

"Why do these tanks still use smoothbore guns?" LOOKING AT THE LIST THAT SAYS 100MM, I ASKED STRANGELY.

"Any questions?" Li Li asked.

"Of course there is a problem!" I said, "Don't you know that the 59 we use are rifled guns?" ”

"Of course I do!" Li Li replied impatiently: "But do you know that almost all the tanks of all countries on Shijie are now using smoothbore guns, and the benefits of tank smoothbore guns are not comparable to rifled guns......"

"Stop......" I handed the document back to Li Li casually, and interrupted her with a frown: "Drive the tanks back, replace them all with rifled guns, and then drive them back...... BY THE WAY, BY THE WAY, THE GUNS OF THE T62 TANKS WE SURRENDERED WERE ALSO REPLACED, AND ALL OF THEM WERE REPLACED WITH 100MM RIFLED GUNS! ”

"How can you say that!" Li Li objected angrily: "Battalion Commander Yang, I hope you understand two points before cooperating: first, I am not under your command; Second, I am a professional, the assessment report is my business, and you have no right to interfere! ”

"Professional......" I let out a disdainful laugh.

I wouldn't have been so rude to a lady before, but I just couldn't get used to her domineering posture, so I didn't give an inch now.

"Ms. Li Li!" I said, "I also want you to understand two things: one, I am not under your command, so you have no authority for me to use." Second, I am the one who fights the war, and I am the one who goes to the battlefield, and I don't want to take such a thing to the battlefield to die, so I have the right to refuse to use it! I see? ”

"You ......" Li Li's face turned pale with anger, and she couldn't help but scold in English: "Stupidchinese!" Stupidchieseidea Chinese!

Although I didn't speak English well, I could still understand these two sentences, so my face changed and I said, "Ms. Li Li, aren't you Chinese?" If you're not, please go back to the United States and go back and tell our American allies that we don't need such stupid weapons experts! ”

"You ......" Li Li was so angry that I couldn't speak, and then quickly widened her eyes and asked in surprise: "Will you understand my words?" Do you know English? ”

"Comrade, comrade......" At this time, a middle-aged man who was also wearing work clothes came up to me and handed me a cigarette and said, "Comrade, dissipate your anger...... That's not what we mean...... It's going to take us a few days to drive this tank back and forth! And retrofitting doesn't mean that retrofitting is modified, so it's not efficient, is it? Otherwise, let's record your opinions first, and you will use the tank first, and then find other problems...... We've collected almost all the questions, and then we can modify them all at once, what do you think? ”

"Hmm!" I thought about it and felt that what the middle-aged man said was reasonable, so I nodded.

IN ORDER TO SHOW HIS SINCERITY, THE MIDDLE-AGED MAN REALLY TOOK OUT A PEN AND REMEMBERED WHILE TALKING: "SUGGESTION: THE 100MM SMOOTHBORE GUN SHOULD BE CHANGED TO A 100MM RIFLED GUN......"

I didn't want to say anything more, but when I saw Li Li laughing disdainfully, I couldn't help but feel angry again, so I said to the middle-aged man: "This suggests that you can't write like this, you should write ...... ALTHOUGH THE SMOOTHBORE GUN HAS THE ADVANTAGES OF LARGE KINETIC ENERGY, STRONG ARMOR-PIERCING ABILITY, LOW COST AND LONG LIFE, BECAUSE THE VAST MAJORITY OF TANKS IN OUR ARMY ARE EQUIPPED WITH 100MM RIFLED GUNS, IN ORDER TO AVOID THE PROBLEM OF SUPPLY CHAOS ON THE BATTLEFIELD, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE TYPE 69 TANK PUT INTO THE BATTLEFIELD BE CONVERTED INTO A 100MM RIFLED GUN! ”

As soon as I said this, the middle-aged man and Li Li couldn't help but cast surprised glances at me...... They still thought I was just a stupid soldier who didn't know anything, who knew that I not only understood the advantages and disadvantages of this smoothbore gun and rifled gun, but also put forward a very good reason why the smoothbore gun was not suitable for the battlefield.

And I raised my head at Li Li again and said, "Professional? Professionals also need to know how to fight! Tanks are for war, not for you to be professional! ”

These words only made Li Li roll her eyes in anger, but she didn't know what to say to refute me!

Seeing her angry appearance, my heart blossomed with joy, and the soldiers around me also coaxed and shouted:

"The battalion commander is doing well!"

"The battalion commander is more professional than professional!"

……

These words only made the staff look like they had lost the battle.

But I also know that this matter should be stopped in moderation, these staff can be said to be the future of weapons and equipment in our hands, and it can be said that the good or bad of the guys in our hands in the future depends on them...... So that's not something to offend.

So he waved his hand to make the soldiers under him stop coaxing, stepped forward and stretched out his hand to the middle-aged man and said: "We have accepted the tank, but it is only for training purposes, and we refuse to use it on the battlefield before it is modified, no problem!" ”

"No problem!" The middle-aged man nodded, paused and continued: "My name is Wu Zhensheng, and I am the deputy leader of this evaluation team, and the team leader is ......."

Speaking of this, his eyes glanced at Li Li, who was still sulking on the side, smiled at me a little embarrassedly, and said, "I hope we have a happy cooperation!" ”

"Happy working together!" I waved my hand, and Huang Jianfu, who had been waiting on the sidelines, rushed up to take over those Type 69 tanks.

So I knew...... In front of us is not only the training of two unprecedented classes, but also the training of "guinea pigs" to experiment with new equipment, and there may be more new equipment that will be delivered to us one after another......

With this rifled gun and smoothbore gun controversy, I really don't know if it's good or bad to have these new equipment. (To be continued......)
