Chapter 242: The Battle Between Fast and Slow Machines
After visiting these self-designed automatic rifles and general-purpose machine guns, and getting familiar with the Tokarev Type 33 pistol that had just been shipped from Jiangbei, Yang Zhen hung up the special bullet belt specially produced for that kind of automatic rifle, and put it on his leg.
Pinned on the pistol holster that had just been produced, he inserted the pistol he was familiar with diagonally. Then he picked up the 1939 version of the August 1st rifle. [.Com text]
When Zhang Zhenhua, Liu Yandong, Li Mingrui and Dong Ping were not sure what Yang Zhen was going to do, he had already performed a wonderful tactical exercise according to the memory of later generations, including shooting drills during the exercise.
, gave Li Mingrui and Dong Ping a vivid lesson on what real special forces tactics are.
Seeing Yang Zhen's accurate rifle fire and dazzling tactical movements, Zhang Zhenhua and Liu Yandong didn't care, but Li Mingrui and Dong Ping, who were half-experts, were dumbfounded. They finally understood why the commander always called
They have half bottles of water.
Although it is true that my own weapons are not suitable for these tactical applications, in terms of the accuracy of shooting while moving and the combined use of the two weapons, I and my reconnaissance battalion are still far behind.
Yang Zhen's wonderful tactical drills let them know for the first time that pistols can still be used in this way, and that the magazine of this type of automatic rifle can be replaced with one hand. It turns out that you don't have to pull the trigger to load bullets.
The inertia of the gun can also be used to load the bullet.
After completing the tactical drill, Yang Zhen took off the bullet belt on his body, threw the rifle back into Li Mingrui's hands, and said to the two of them: "Did you see clearly what I did? I told you before, this automatic rifle
It is specially designed for your reconnaissance camp."
"Our troops are currently unable to equip all of our troops with the ammunition consumption of this weapon, so the limited equipment produced is only provided to your reconnaissance battalion. This combat pistol is also specially imported for you, as your scouts need to use it at close range.
Used for precise and rapid fire."
"These weapons are hard to come by and cost a lot of money. So you must cherish them and master and use these equipments as quickly as possible. The situation is tense, I can only give you seven days. Within seven days, you must master them skillfully.
Although weapons may not necessarily be produced, we would rather have people wait for equipment than equipment wait for people."
At this point, Yang Zhen took off the pistol holster tied to his leg and threw it to Dong Ping along with the pistol inside: "As for this holster, it is not necessary to tie it to the leg. It's just how can you make it as fast as possible?"
Just draw the gun and use it. You have also seen the speed with which I draw the gun. You must practice this technique as soon as possible in a short period of time. Because in many cases, the speed of drawing the gun directly determines whether you can survive.
"
Dong Ping took the holster and pulled out the pistol inside, tested the feel, fired two more bullets from the magazine, and said with a grimace: "Commander, this pistol has a simple structure and reliable action, but its magazine
The ammunition load is only eight rounds, which is incomparable to the 20-round ammunition load of the speed-slow machine we are used to. Its firepower is simply incomparable, and its fifty-meter range is even more incomparable to the speed machine."
"And the rate of fire in close combat is even different. Look at this kind of pistol. We already have speed machines. Do we still need to equip it? Why don't we equip cadres with battalions and above as self-defense pistols?
, I think it’s still better. Also, the 7.62mm pistol bullet used in this gun is not compatible with the 7.63mm bullet used in our speed machines.”
"Our individual soldiers each have a speed machine. Together with other weapons and ammunition, the load is already very heavy. Isn't it necessary to equip this kind of pistol, or is it better to continue to equip it with a speed machine?" Dong Ping's meaning is obvious.
I simply don’t want a pistol that has a rate of fire inferior to that of a speed machine and an ammunition load that is even inferior.
Yang Zhen shook his head as this guy made it clear that he didn't want it. He didn't explain, but told Dong Ping through actions what the benefits of this kind of gun were.
Yang Zhen took out a 20-round magazine from the speed machine from the guard beside him, unloaded the bullets in it, and put it directly into the empty magazine of the Tokarev pistol that Dong Ping had just fired.
Loading started immediately. And the accuracy was not significantly reduced.
After emptying a magazine, Yang Zhen threw the pistol back to Dong Ping and said: "The 7.62mm Tokarev bullet used in this pistol is itself a Mauser 7.63mm bullet.
The improved bullets can be used interchangeably. This bullet inherits the advantages of the Mauser pistol bullet's high penetrating power, but the chamber pressure is slightly lower and the accuracy is slightly worse. However, within the effective range of fifty meters, the accuracy is still the same.
Enough."
"The reason why I got you this relatively excellent combat pistol is specifically to deal with the shortcomings of the Mauser pistol and the needs of your troops for the pistol. Although the Mauser pistol has high accuracy, its firepower far exceeds that of ordinary pistols. When connected to the holster,
It can eventually become a small carbine. However, the muzzle jump is serious when firing continuously, and the weight is too large."
"We have been equipped with a large number of submachine guns, and after this automatic rifle was put into production, the situation of poor close combat firepower has been changed. Weapons like speed machines that are neither high nor low enough have no place to be used. They are completely
It can be eliminated.”
"Although the accuracy of the speed machine is good, its rapid fire can be completely replaced by an automatic rifle, and its accuracy of continuous burst shooting cannot be completely compared with this kind of pistol. And this kind of pistol is for you who need high accuracy in close combat.
It is used for precise continuous burst shooting. In this case, the advantage of the speed machine turns into a disadvantage.
Speaking of this, Yang Zhen suddenly thought of the old-timers of later generations who had used these two weapons one after another, their love for speed machines, and their obviously disapproving comments about the Soviet-made Tokarev pistol. After all, Dong Ping and the others were the ones who
Long-term users have a relatively deep understanding of which weapon is more suitable for them.
Thinking of this, Yang Zhen hesitated for a moment and then said: "In this way, some of these pistols will be allocated to you according to the number of people. As for which one to use in combat, you decide for yourself. But you have also seen my tactical actions just now, what do you think?
Is it appropriate to use a speed machine, a weapon with poor continuous shooting accuracy, in this tactical mode?"
After Yang Zhen's words fell, Dong Ping, who was a little dissatisfied with this pistol just now, was silent. He and Li Mingrui both understood the advantages and disadvantages of speed machines. This short, powerful weapon is very difficult to use when close combat requires intensive firepower.
Suitable. This is also the reason why the Chinese ** team has a large amount of equipment.
However, when continuous high-precision burst shooting is required in close combat, the uncontrollable upward jump of the muzzle is the biggest shortcoming of this weapon. Unless the holster is attached and used on the shoulder, even if it is fired rapidly,
No matter how experienced the veteran is, the first bullet can hit the target, but the second bullet has no idea where it will hit the target.
The combat pistol that the commander just practiced was capable of firing accurately and rapidly while moving. It is impossible for a speed machine to do it. Even veterans who have used it for a long time cannot do it. It is not that the single shot accuracy of the speed machine is not enough, nor is its firepower insufficient.
Fierce, but when it fires continuously, the uncontrollable muzzle jump cannot guarantee accuracy at all.
Those who so-called accurate shooting with speed machines almost always did it without any requirements on the rate of fire. If it is required to ensure both the speed of fire and accuracy, speed machines simply cannot do it, even if they have experience.
Even experienced shooters can't do it.
Looking at the expressions on the two people's faces after listening to his words, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "Every weapon has its necessity for existence. But this necessity is based on the overall tactical requirements of an army.
The speed machine is powerful and has high single-shot accuracy, but why does no army in the world except the Chinese Army use it as standard equipment?"
"For the European and American powers, their firepower is enough to avoid close combat and hand-to-hand combat as quickly as possible. They mainly use ground and air firepower to kill their opponents. Moreover, they have the ability to mass-produce submachine guns that have a longer range than speed machines and have twice the melee firepower. Speed machines
This kind of weapon, which is neither high-end nor low-end, but also relatively cumbersome, has no use at all."
"For the squadron with weak firepower, close combat is the best choice to avoid the opponent's firepower advantage. In the case where submachine guns are expensive, self-production cannot be guaranteed in terms of quantity or quality, especially the large amount of ammunition they consume.
Only then can weapons with fast firing rates such as speed machines spread."
"For us now, there is almost no need for this kind of weapon. Not only you, but also the general troops have begun to replace submachine guns on a large scale. Our melee firepower is no longer comparable to when we only relied on speed machines.
.In other words, with the advancement of our equipment, it is inevitable that this kind of weapon will be eliminated."
After all, Yang Zhen stopped talking to the two people. He knew that the change of ideas requires a process. It takes time for a person to give up his favorite weapon and replace it with another weapon that is completely unfamiliar to him. In fact, for these
All the weapons that were so well made that they could be said to be works of art were withdrawn from the army, and Yang Zhen was a little reluctant to part with them.
But he knows that as a large number of submachine guns with simpler structures and easier control are put into production and equipped with troops, it is inevitable that weapons with complex structures and serious impact on accuracy when the muzzle jumps up during continuous shooting will be eliminated. Otherwise, there are so many weapons in the world.
How come no country in the world uses it as a standard weapon? Not even Germany, its country of origin.
Putting aside these two people who were so partial to speed machines that they didn't care about the advantages and disadvantages, Yang Zhen asked them to think about it carefully. He turned around and picked up a fine steel weapon placed next to the Deshka anti-aircraft machine gun.
The built combat hand crossbow was carefully examined. In the absence of the ability to produce silenced pistols, this hand crossbow, which is relatively easy to produce and silent when used, has become an excellent weapon choice in sneak attacks.
.
Yang Zhen tried this hand crossbow equipped with a VP-type sniper rifle special scope with a quadruple scope imported from Jiangbei. He felt that although it was incomparable with the hand crossbows he used in later generations due to the huge gap in production materials and processes.
Comparative, but it at least partially meets my needs. At least the basic accuracy and penetration are enough.
Speaking of the sight on this kind of hand crossbow, it is a joke. The sight on this kind of hand crossbow is disassembled from the Mosin Nagant sniper rifle imported by Yang Zhen. Only some of the sniper rifles provided by Jiangbei are
A new product is the new PE sight. The rest are still old products using the VP sight which has a great impact on reloading.
On the contrary, the additional scopes provided at Yang Zhen's request were all the latest PE models. In order to prevent the old scopes from affecting the loading of the sniper rifle, Yang Zhen used those imported scopes to modify the old ones in the style of new products.
The goods were modified. The disassembled sights were used on these hand crossbows.
And it is obvious that Liu Yandong worked hard when producing these hand crossbows. Although the tension of the crossbow strings is still somewhat different due to the raw materials, he really worked hard on the production of the crossbow arrows.
The hand crossbow is powerful enough to penetrate a five centimeter thick pine board at a distance of twenty meters.
After Yang Zhen played with this hand crossbow for a while, he said to Liu Yandong: "You must have suffered a lot in the production of this hand crossbow. This thing looks very simple, but the requirements for craftsmanship are very high. No
With certain techniques, it may not be easy to produce qualified products.”
In response to Yang Zhen's inquiry, Liu Yandong smiled bitterly and said: "Commander, you are really insightful. In order to produce qualified products, we have indeed suffered a lot and wasted a lot of materials. If it were not for the quantity you requested,
There are only 100 pieces, so I have to apply to stop producing this thing."
"The production of such a hand crossbow requires enough high-grade alloy steel to produce an automatic rifle. Based on the standard that each hand crossbow is equipped with twenty crossbow arrows, it would only take half of the production of two thousand crossbow arrows.
Tons of steel. This does not include the enormous amount of effort that goes into making a crossbow string with the required tension."
In response to Liu Yandong's complaint, Yang Zhen laughed and said: "Anyway, you still made it, didn't you? And these weapons, didn't you all make them? Just because you produce these excellent weapons, you can't get any rewards.
It's too much. It's just that as a commander, I am very poor and have nothing. Even if I want to give you some rewards, I can't come up with any."
Hearing Yang Zhen's praise, Liu Yandong smiled a little cautiously and said: "Commander, this is not the result of me alone, it is the result of everyone's hard work day and night. I don't want this reward, Commander, I only have
A request. If the regulations are met, could you please award some meritorious personnel in the arsenal with medals, even medals?"
"You don't know, when some of our personnel go to the troops to repair weapons, they are very envious of the medals and medals on the chests of the soldiers. I also know that there is no way we can compare with the soldiers who are fighting on the front line. Their medals and medals
It’s all in exchange for life.”
"You also know that our conditions are difficult, and the food and use are incomparable to those in the Puppet Manchukuo arsenal. But everyone also knows that the army has done its best to take care of the arsenal. This material supply
No one has thought about rewards, but should we give some spiritual rewards? After all, it is good to encourage workers’ enthusiasm for production.”
When Liu Yandong cautiously expressed his thoughts, Yang Zhen laughed and said: "What's the point? I have no right to award high-level medals without the approval of the Military Region Standing Committee, but the third-level Medal of Independence and Freedom and the Red Flag Medal are still acceptable.
.”
"You take the time to write a report and give it to Political Commissar Li. I will go and talk to him. You and the political commissar of your factory come up with a list of meritorious service. I will ask the political commissar and Director Gao to study it and solve it for you. But there is one thing. This medal
Medals and medals should be given to front-line workers and technicians."
