If an armed force wants to develop step by step, the first step is to have soldiers, the second step is to have equipment, the third step is to have training, the fourth step is to have ambitious goals, and the fifth step is to have modern nationalism
and the awakening of the modern national spirit. The sixth step is to have the military literacy of modern soldiers and a sense of collective, national, and national honor. The seventh step is to have a holistic military combat theory.
In this series of development steps, the seventh step is the most critical point in determining whether a unit is first-rate. To be precise, a first-rate unit must have first-rate military theory, as in "The Science of Victory"
It is to the Soviet Red Army and the PLA what "On War" is to the German army, just as "Sea Power" and J.F.C. Fuller's "War Guidance" are to the US military.
Speaking of pla alone, during the War of Liberation, Alexander Vasilyevich Suvorov's military theory of "observation, rapidity, and fierce attack" and concentrating superior forces to quickly and violently annihilate the enemy were implemented into every detail
After that, in the Korean War, the self-defense counterattack against India, and the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, pla continued to implement this theory.
The military theories that Song Biao admired most were "The Science of Victory" and "Introduction to the Art of War" by Antoine Henri Jomini. As for Clausewitz's "On War", Song Biao both agreed and also
I don’t completely agree, but this is probably because Clausewitz refuted Sun Tzu’s idea of “attacking the enemy with an army and subduing the enemy’s army without fighting” in the first sentence of his argument.
Song Biao felt that he was very lucky. He had formed his own armed force in such a short time and had sufficient weapons and equipment to expand. He thought that the problem he had to solve now was training and goals. He must give this armed force
Find a suitable stage and value and let them prove themselves. Only in this way can they gradually develop, otherwise they will still become bandits and second-rate warlords.
Considering the short-term combat goals and development direction of this armed force alone, Song Biao has two options at the moment. One is to find a way to contact the Tsarist Russian army and ask for a sum of aid to fight traitors and Japanese. If he is lucky, he can use it at a critical moment.
, maybe it can kill thousands of little Japans; the second is to base on the current foundation, continue to recruit people, develop slowly, and not be eager to go head-to-head with the little Japans.
The second method is more appropriate, because the people on his side have not yet undergone formal training, and their combat quality is not as good as that of the bandits. They are definitely no match for the Japanese army. In just a few rounds, they will be defeated by the Japanese army.
Song Biao has four Maxim heavy machine guns in his hand. If the Russians help, ammunition will definitely not be a problem. After all, he has some money, so buying a few more is not a problem. What's more, he also has four hundred Winchester M1897s.
Shotgun.
During World War I, Germany already had its first-generation submachine guns, but the first-generation submachine guns had no advantage at all against the m1897. Because U.S. soldiers used the m1897 in large numbers, Germany even requested restrictions under international law and international treaties.
The use of this weapon on the battlefield.
You can actually buy more of this kind of gun, and the price is not expensive. At least it is much cheaper than the Maxim, which costs 5,000 or 6,000 silver dollars each.
If we only talk about family background, Song Biao knows that he is actually capable of following the Russians, but he has absolutely no intention of changing the outcome of the Russo-Japanese War. At most, he hopes that the two sides will fight more fiercely. Although Japan wins, it will win.
Even more tragic.
Then again, he himself has been a soldier for three years, and he can honestly say that if the new recruits join the army without training for a full year, they will basically be used as cannon fodder when they are sent to the battlefield. If the war is as brutal as the counterattack against Vietnam, half of the new recruits will survive.
It's pretty good after the first month.
Even if it is a one-year training period, it depends on how you practice. People with training levels like those of the People's Liberation Army, the People's Liberation Army, and the Communist Army in the early to mid-term are still a bunch of waste after three years of training. Basically, they can only dig a trench and lie down in it and shoot.
, as soon as the charge horn was blown, they rushed forward to block the machine gun holes.
The snow has been falling in the dark, and the north wind is so cold and fast that even peeing outside the cave will make a pillar of ice. No one can leave the cave, so we can only save firewood.
In the past few days, Song Biao has been teaching everyone in Erlang Cave to familiarize themselves with the characteristics of modern rifles and practice shooting with the Japanese Thirty Rifles. The rifles of this period generally have the same aiming method and the adjustment method of the rifle sight.
It's basically the same. Once you master one rifle, you can operate other rifles at will.
Being a soldier is a technical job, and training is even more so.
The training of modern infantry is roughly divided into four aspects, namely basic training, physical training, combat training, and tactical training. Basic training is mainly to train soldiers' organization, obedience and basic combat capabilities. As a soldier, physical training is
The basics, while combat training is the beginning of professionalism, and tactical training can effectively improve the combat capabilities of soldiers and troops.
If formalized Communist Army recruit training procedures were adopted and the basic education level of these caravan brothers was taken into consideration, it would have taken Song Biao at least three months to hone them into shape.
Faced with this cruel reality, everyone is now a horse bandit. Song Biao designed a quick shooting tutorial. In addition to a small part of basic formation and tactical standard training, he also taught standard shooting movements and explained the principles of basic fortifications.
Most of the rest of the time is for everyone to practice firearms, not only practicing the Type 30 rifle, but also other Nagant revolvers, Winchester shotguns, Maxim machine guns and grenades. There is no need for perfection, just asking everyone to practice.
Knowing how to use it, we strive to turn everyone into qualified bandits and horse thieves in the shortest possible time.
Song Biao also practiced horseback riding in the cave. If you want to be a mountain master in the Northeast, it is a sin not to be able to ride a horse, just like a traffic policeman who cannot drive. These horses in the caravan are hard-working types, and they are not difficult to ride.
, most suitable for novices like him.
In his spare time, through his own observation and chatting, Song Biao gradually gained a deeper understanding of these brothers in the caravan.
The Guandong caravan generally only has about ten people. The team is too big to manage, and it cannot receive so much big business. The caravan Song Biao encountered was put together temporarily. The business was taken over by Zhao Tingzhu from the Russians.
However, Zhao Tingzhu only had a few horses and could not handle such a large business, so he went to discuss with Lao Jintou and Lao Guotou, and they formed a large horse gang to transport goods together.
Therefore, Lao Guotou's serious injury and Guo Erdong's death were the key to Song Biao's rapid formation of a team, because Lao Jintou could not control Zhang Yahu and Yang Tiesheng's gang at the time. When the situation was established, everyone wanted to join the gang.
After splitting the cash, Lao Jintou really had no choice but to fall out with Song Biao and the new bandits.
Song Biao guessed that Lao Jintou was afraid that he would pull all those horses away in one go. After all, he had just started his career and might not follow the rules of the road, and these horses were Lao Jintou's capital and all his property to support him until his death.
People are very realistic.
The team has been pulled together, but after all, this is not a revolutionary team. It has no revolutionary appeal. In addition to making a living and making cash and benefiting from benefits, everyone also has some ideas of their own. Only by analyzing everyone in place can we
Controlling everyone, this is Song Biao's feeling.
The five people in this gang, Lao Jintou, Lao Guotou, Zhao Tingzhu, Yang Tiesheng and Zhang Yahu, are very critical. The first two are the old gang leaders, and the last three are people who are usually responsible for doing practical things. They are popular and young and energetic.
, has appeal.
Once Guo Erdong died, Lao Guotou's life and death were uncertain again. Lao Guotou's people basically followed Zhang Yahu and Li Ergou, and Lao Jintou's guys all followed Yang Tiesheng and Zhao Tingzhu. When Song Biao asked everyone to elect the captain, the three of them each
There are more than ten brothers supporting me.
People still need some special nutrition and supplements at critical moments. After slaughtering two dead horses to make soup, the dying old Guo Tou and the several Russian wounded gradually improved, and their complexions became increasingly clear in the past few days.
good.
Nutrition is important.
This morning, everyone continued to take out the frozen horse meat sealed in the snowdrift to make soup. They cooked a big pot. Song Biao wore a gray woolen army coat and a pair of trousers that the Russians called "uly".
Rough sheepskin snow boots, sitting by the fire and thinking.
Li Dahan was still responsible for cooking the soup, Yang Sangui was responsible for taking care of the injured, and the others followed their captains and played with various firearms.
Sitting next to the fire, Song Biao fiddled with the flames with firewood, silently thinking about things in the underground reservoir area. It had been snowing heavily these days, and he had never had the chance to deal with this problem. He hoped to go there early and not take anyone with him.
, even if it takes four or five days, the corridors in the reservoir area must be filled in.
That place was originally extremely remote, hidden deep in the old mountains. This was the reason why we chose to build the storage area and launch silo here. If we buried it and covered it with soil, it would be safer and we should not be discovered.
Even so, Song Biao feels that he must always be vigilant because he is the last sentinel of the base in this era.
He always feels that there is a mission entrusted to him. He must protect the reservoir area and ensure that it does not fall into the hands of the Japanese and Russians. If the Japanese discover it, it will be a disaster for the entire world.
.
Think about it carefully, what a terrible thing this is. There are so many things in the reservoir area, including nuclear warheads, intercontinental ballistic missiles, computers, fiber optic technology, guidance technology, guidance technology, integrated circuits, relay protection, low voltage
Electrical cabinets... If there is a strong technical team responsible for reverse research on these things, the effects will be extremely terrifying.
Apart from anything else, the few gates in the reservoir area alone are real hard industry. Once we understand the homogeneous armor technology of the gates, the problem of tank protection will be solved.
"Guarding the Hunjiang River" is the mission given to Song Biao by history, because he is the only one who knows how important this mission is.
Song Biao thought about all this sternly.
Lao Jintou came over a little uninterested, sat next to Song Biao and smoked a dry cigarette, and reminded Song Biao: "Master, I think the snow is going to stop. It will be almost gone in the afternoon. It will probably stop."
For a while, do you think you should send a team of people out to look for the Russians who ran away? Those people know nothing about the area. If they encounter such heavy snow in the wild, they will definitely freeze into icemen.
After all, there are more than a dozen guns, and maybe I can even get a small amount of cash out of it. If I remember correctly, there is a pretty big official there!"
Song Biao raised his eyes and thought about it. Among the Russians, there was indeed a man wearing a tulup-style black military coat. This black coat was made of bear leather and black sheep wool. Only in the Far East were there cobblers.
It's worth a lot if it can be made, and not every Russian official can afford it.
According to Zhao Tingzhu, this kind of military coat can only be made to order in Vladivostok. One piece costs several hundred rubles, and basically only the officers of the Tsarist Russian Far East garrison in the Vladivostok area will buy it.
Song Biao nodded and said: "Let me take Zhao Tingzhu there. If we encounter a battle, we are not at the level to deal with it."
Lao Jintou smoked a dry cigarette and puffed out smoke, and replied: "Master, you have to be careful! This is a big deal. I guess the Japanese are still watching. They have killed so many people, and they might even send someone here."
Found it."
Song Biao thought for a moment and said: "I will look for it, but I won't do a large-scale search. After all, we are at war with Russia. At most, it will be a small team going out. I think the Japanese will let the bandits help. This
Besides Liu Tongpao, what other bandits are there in the area?"
Lao Jintou said: "That's too many. There are four or five famous ones in Hunjiang and Tonghua, and there are countless ones without names. As long as you have a gun, five or six guns can be used in Guandong.
A village master, even a mountain master with the strength of Liu Tongpao, there is also Guo Siye of Hongtuya in Hunjiang, and he has a team of more than 70 foreign guns, so he is not easy to mess with!
"
Song Biao said oh, but did not take this kind of team too seriously and said: "Okay, I understand."
He also got up and walked outside the cave to take a general look at the weather. The light was better than the previous two days, and the snow was lighter. The key was that the wind was lighter, which meant that the cold wave was about to pass, and he could really go out for some activities in the afternoon.
