Chapter 1372 Ammunition
"Director Meng, I see that your soldiers eat raw rice, is there anything special about this?"
Meng Chuan glanced at the soldiers who ate raw rice, "Oh, it's not particular, just eat when you're hungry, rice is always better than grassroots." ”
The commander of the first battalion then asked, "Are you conducting wilderness survival training?" ”
Meng Chuan shook his head, "No, but their wilderness survival training should be carried out all the time, and the special forces go out to fight in a single squad, I would rather them bring two more bullets than an extra cookie." ”
"Food is too easy to replenish, and if you destroy the enemy, you will naturally have food, but ammunition is difficult, especially in war-torn areas, where bullets are too inferior, even if it is a bullet of the same caliber, it is difficult to fit into a gun."
Meng Chuan has personal experience here, when he was on the battlefield, because his weapon ran out of bullets, he picked up a 7.62 mm caliber bullet used by the enemy.
It stands to reason that bullets of the same caliber, especially AK rifle bullets, have the same length, but even so, after Meng Chuan loaded the bullets, there were still many bullets that could not be fired, and even some bullets could not be loaded into the magazine, and you could even see with the naked eye that the bullet was crooked.
Such an inferior bullet, let alone aiming at a long distance, even if it advances to the distance of fighting with the enemy's bayonet, aiming at someone's head may be crooked, this is really an exaggeration.
And all this is Meng Chuan's personal experience, in fact, even if it is the most basic thing like bullets, the manufacturing technology is still only in the hands of a few big countries.
Even the three countries of Afghanistan, which ranks fourth in the world in terms of military strength, cannot make good bullets.
The military power of the three countries ranks fourth, and many people will think it is an exaggeration, you are a country that can't even make bullets, and the military power can be so strong?
In fact, objectively speaking, the military strength of the three countries is not weak, and in terms of his military spending, his military spending even exceeds that of country E, the second military power in the world, which is very exaggerated, but this is indeed a fact.
However, the fact that they spend a lot on military expenditure does not mean that they are worthy of the name that they rank fourth in military strength, because they like to buy weapons, from aircraft carriers, air force fighters, to bullets in the chamber of a gun, but in any case, money can indeed buy a lot of good weapons.
At least people's air force aircraft are not weaker than our country's basic J10, of course, our latest J20 can not take them into account.
But we don't have many J20 aircraft, because the more sophisticated the weapon, the higher the maintenance cost, and the army always has to consider military spending.
But in such a military power, the performance of the bullets produced by the bullet production line is very poor, so that it has to be imported in large quantities all the time.
Not to mention the bullets made in those small workshops in the war-torn areas, not to mention accurate shooting, when you pull the trigger, you can hear a sound, this bullet is considered a good bullet.
This is also why Meng Chuan must bring more bullets with them, because bullets are really things that can kill people.
The commander of the first battalion could not experience this feeling, because he had the backing of the country, and every bullet fired was a bullet produced by a high-precision production line.
The military strength of country M is recognized as the first in the world, but in this way, people still have to import bullets from our country, the reason is very simple, that is, because our country's bullets are cost-effective, and people are not countries with poor money, so the natural quality must keep up.
After all, how much is a bullet? A NATO standard 5.56 mm medium-power bomb is less than $0.7, and even if it buys hundreds of millions of rounds a year, it is only an expenditure of $100 million, which is not money at all in the eyes of country M.
The commander of the first battalion could not experience the impact of inferior bullets, and Meng Chuan had personally felt it, so he had to start from the actual combat and pay attention to all kinds of small details, so that they could survive on the battlefield as much as possible.
After hearing Meng Chuan's theory, the commander of the first battalion was really surprised, no wonder the soldiers brought out by Meng Chuan were so strong, all his training was from the actual battlefield and then summed up, and the experience obtained in this way must be much stronger than his own blind prediction.
In fact, he also thought about extending this kind of training to the training of his own troops, but after thinking about it, he still felt that it was not in line with the actual situation of his troops.
The special forces trained by Meng Chuan are going to fight outside, but their own troops don't need to, they have such a powerful motherland as a logistics force, and the bullet problem is not a problem at all.
"Director Meng, I want to ask you a question, have you been injured after so many years on the battlefield abroad?"
Meng Chuan laughed, "In the war-torn areas where bullets are flying, injuries should be commonplace, even if we are training in our troops, injuries should be common." ”
The first battalion commander hurriedly waved his hand, "Director Meng, the injury I am talking about is not a small bump, but a gunshot wound." You also know that even though our brigade is a special operations brigade, it has never participated in a battle, and it is said that a gun hole is more rare than a military merit medal, but after so many years of peace, how can there be any gunshot wounds. ”
Meng Chuan looked at the first battalion commander in surprise, "It seems that you really want to fight?" ”
The first battalion commander said in a firm tone, "Soldiers are born to fight!" ”
Meng Chuan pointed to his chest, "I was shot through the lungs by a Parabellum 9mm pistol bullet, although I am recovering well now, it is impossible to return to the original peak." Soldiers should go to the battlefield, but soldiers should survive on the battlefield, those who die are recruits, and those who survive are elites, and our training is to let them survive as much as possible. ”
"Okay, don't talk about these digressions, I'll take the soldiers for a ten-kilometer armed swimming crossing later, if you're interested, you can come over and take a look at the difference between our two troops and armed swimming training."
The commander of the first battalion heard that Meng Chuan had been wounded by a gunshot, and his attitude towards Meng Chuan was even better, and any soldier had to admit how powerful a wounded veteran was.
What's more, Meng Chuan is also a wounded military commander, this kind of highly educated, on the actual battlefield, and injured talents, it is impossible for the soldiers brought out not to be strong.
The commander of the first battalion immediately agreed: "Okay, I'll go over and see what difference your armed swimming training is." ”
