Chapter 68: New Equipment
After five battles, China's top leaders finally realized the importance of weaponry. So he visited the Soviet Union many times to seek new weapons and equipment from the Soviet "big brother" for the volunteer soldiers.
Weapons, the Soviet side could have supplied, but none for free!
After Commander Peng took charge of the daily work of the Central Military Commission in July 1952, when reviewing the internal documents of the army, whenever he saw such words as "expressing heartfelt gratitude for the selfless assistance of the proletarian internationalist friendship" of the Soviet Union, he always crossed out the word "selfless" without giving any explanation. It was not until the late 50s that the reason for the cross-out of the word "selfless" was gradually understood by middle-level and above cadres inside and outside the army.
After the end of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, Commander Peng briefed the leaders of some Eastern European countries on the situation of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, saying: "It is absolutely not that we want to fight this war. We just stood up, with an annual output of only tens of thousands of tons of steel? I haven't caught my breath yet. It was out of necessity that we fought this war that we could not afford to fight, and we were not very sure of it! We use human heads to resist the superiority of other people's weapons. But this battlefield, which has planted countless Chinese heads, has left us with a debt of a butt. The Soviets gave us some weapons, most of which were used in the Second World War and leftover, but the price was not low, and they took the opportunity to take advantage of us, to rub oil on our brother, who had not yet established ourselves, and we endured the pain and did not speak, for the sake of the unity of the internationalist family......"
Commander Peng hoped that the Eastern European countries would also tolerate and sacrifice for the sake of unity, but at the same time, he could not control his anger at the Soviet Union, which only tolerated and sacrificed others. He said this in a paradoxical mood.
The second company of the third battalion of the 354th Regiment of the 118th Division also began to change new equipment, Shi Chen also reassigned a Jieg Galev light machine qiang, and the others were also replaced by the 38 big cover to Mosin Naganbu qiang, as well as ** Sha Charge Qiang. Shi Chen said: "Come on, come on, let's all see how our new equipment is." ”
Guo Lin said: "In my opinion, there is not much difference between these qiang and the weapons we used before. ”
As soon as Zhigang heard Guo Lin say this, he asked, "Brother Guo, why do you say that?" ”
Guo Lin explained: "The equipment we use now is basically the old equipment used by the Soviet Union during World War II. ”
As soon as Cai Dong next to him heard that it was old equipment, he asked again: "So, is it the weapon we use, it is the old qiang used by Lao Maozi!" Can we still use it? ”
Guo Lin said: "Of course, it can be used, and when I was studying in the lecture hall, an instructor told us that when the Soviets made weapons, they would consider the reliability of the weapons and whether the production could be efficient. So their weapons are characterized by a simple structure and are suitable for mass production. Because the results are simple and there are few parts, the reliability is generally very high. ”
As soon as Shi Chen heard that Guo Lin was so knowledgeable, he was also interested, so he took out the newly dressed Jiege Galev light machine qiang, brought it to Guo Lin and said with a smile: "Deputy squad leader Guo, you are so educated, then give us all more popularization and popularization of this qiang's knowledge." Let's take this turntable qiang, and let us learn and learn more. ”
Guo Lin smiled, took the Jiege Galev light machine and said, "En, good!" Since the squad leader has said so, then I will make a little ugly. Let me tell you about this qiang, and everyone should listen to a commentary. After speaking, Guo Lin took Shi Chen's Deg Galev light machine qiang {hereinafter referred to as turntable qiang}.
Guo Lin held the turntable qiang in one hand, pointed to this qiang with the other and said: "This qiang, the scientific name is dp light machine qiang, I saw it before when I was studying in the martial arts hall, and I put such a pair in the armory of the martial arts hall." ”
"Uh-huh, and then what?" The more Shi Chen listened, the more fascinated he became, and the soldiers of the Jiqiang squad around him also gathered around to listen to Guo Lin's speech.
Guo Lin continued: "Generally speaking, this qiang is usually called 'Deg Galev Light Machine Qiang'. This is the main light aircraft that the Soviet Red Army was equipped with in World War II. The structure of the Jiege Galev light machine qiang is simple, there are only 65 parts in the whole qiang, and the manufacturing process requirements are not high. Even an apprentice can build it, making it ideal for mass production. Moreover, the mechanism of qiang is reliable, the qiang has a total length of 1270 mm, the bullet specification used is 7.62 mm, and the ammunition feeding method is 60 rounds of ammunition. Of course, this qiang has a 60-round cartridge, and there are others with a 30-round magazine and chain. The qiangqiang tube is 605 mm long, there are a total of 4 right-hand rifling wires in the qiang tube, the fire line is 276 mm high, and the total qiang mass is 9.1 kg. It is the working principle of the air conduction type in the front and middle firing mode, and the locking mechanism is the intermediate part type locking card iron brace type, commonly known as the gill brace plate type. When locking, rely on the QIANG frame to re-enter the left and right clamps to open the left and right pieces of the QIANG machine and lock the QIANG machine. ”
"Good! That's a good point! Everyone applauds! After Shi Chen finished speaking, he clapped his hands warmly. The others applauded.
"Brother Guo is really literate and understands so many things." Baochuan said happily on the side.
Shi Chen asked Guo Lin again: "Then Deputy Squad Leader Guo, is there anything else interesting about this qiang?" ”
Guo Lin said: "Of course! This qiang was fought during the Great Patriotic War of the Soviet Union from 1941 to 1945. Deggarev Light Machine Qiang has participated in almost every major military operation with the Soviet Red Army, and has made great contributions and has been praised by the soldiers of the Soviet Red Army! ”
"Uh-huh, what else?" Shi Chen nodded and said.
Guo Lin said: "It is also very interesting to talk about the story of this qiang, it is in 1926, Soviet engineer lieutenant general Vasily? Deg Galev designed a light machine with a simple structure. It was finalized and manufactured by 1927. In 1928, it was officially installed in the Soviet Red Army. ”
"It was installed in 1928, so this qiang has been almost 20 years now. Older than me," Zhigang said.
"Not necessarily, because the production batches are not the same. So the lifespan of the qiang body is not the same. Guo Lin responded.
"Then what is that Jiege and what husband is so old, can make such an interesting play!" Shi Chen said with a smile.
Guo Lin nodded and said, "But the advent of the Jiegalev light machine has also gone through a very tortuous process. According to the requirements of the combat regulations of the Soviet Red Army at that time, the army squad light machine qiang must be able to lie down, kneel, and stand like a foot machine, and shoot in any posture such as intermittent qiang or hijacking, and can suddenly open fire and sweep the enemy with fierce point fire or continuous fire, so that it is necessary to improve the mobile combat capability of the light machine qiang. ”
Everyone nodded after hearing this, and hurriedly asked, "What else?" ”
Guo Lin continued: "In accordance with the requirements of the ordinance, the designer Deg Galev volunteered in 1923 to start the design of the light machine qiang. However, at that time, the General Ordnance Department of the USSR underestimated the role of light machine qiang, and they believed that for infantry, the weapon that played a leading role would always be heavy machine qiang. Light machine qiang is destined to be a flash in the pan. Therefore, they were not satisfied with the design of Deg Galev. Thanks to the discernment of the Red Army's Small Arms Committee, headed by General Kuibyshev, a famous general of the Soviet Army, this classic weapon pearl was not dusted. ”
After Shi Chen heard what Guo Lin said, he said: "Then this belongs to Maxima and met Bole." ”
"Isn't it! Maxima is a Maxima if he meets Bole, and when he meets someone else who doesn't understand, it is a group of ordinary horses, and sometimes even a mule is not as good. Baochuan said. Baidu takes a look at the latest chapter of "Men's World Masterpiece Literature" to read for free for the first time.
