The five hundred and seventieth chapters are urgent [1]
Although the reconnaissance brigade directly under the military region had completely changed its equipment to imitate the August 1st rifle of later generations, Yang Zhen unexpectedly chose the Type 63 for the next generation rifle of the army, which was very scolded by later generations and was very unpopular in the army.
Rifles are not simply for the hand-to-hand combat that is still inevitable. [.Com text/text//
What's more, the performance of the Type 63 rifle is still excellent. Its shooting accuracy far exceeds that of ordinary rifles. Both its power and rate of fire were extremely outstanding in the era when it was designed. Its performance is far from being as bad as imagined.
Its performance is no less than that of the AK 47 automatic rifle and SKS semi-automatic rifle. It also adds burst fire, which can be used for both continuous fire and burst fire. Energy-saving ammunition.
As for later generations, the reason why this kind of rifle received such bad reviews is that this kind of rifle was born at the wrong time. When it was designed, it was catching up with the Great Leap Forward. When it was mass-produced, it was also catching up with the Cultural Revolution. It was popular in the country.
With large and small arsenals being launched at the same time, there is no one to supervise the specifications and standards during design.
In addition, in order to keep up with the schedule, various arsenals not only made shoddy products, but also simplified a large number of necessary production processes. As a result, after being issued to the troops, accidents with automatic rifles with good performance occurred frequently. As a result, almost no one in the troops was willing to take them, and even shouted
Give me back such retrogressive slogans as semi-automatic.
During the war against Vietnam, it also led to the re-equipment of the 56-type semi-automatic troops. When the Vietnamese army was exclusively equipped with the AK series and the 56-type automatic rifles that China had aided Vietnam in the early years, the individual firepower was completely at a disadvantage. Later, it was urgently replaced
A batch was produced, and a batch of relatively standardized Type 63 rifles were drawn from the inventory after disassembly, and some of the frontline troops were urgently re-equipped.
These Type 63 rifles were converted into Type 56 semi-automatic rifles, and they shined brightly in the later stages of the counterattack against Vietnam. Once, the two rifles fired crosswise, tightly suppressing a machine gun fire point of the Vietnamese army. But at this time,
Performance on the battlefield restored some reputation, but there was no way back.
In fact, the performance of this rifle is quite excellent. Its basic performance exceeds the AK 47 and M 14 automatic rifles that were widely equipped by the United States and the Soviet Union. Yang Zhen once tried the rifles produced before, during and after the Cultural Revolution.
rifle. I can only lament that this automatic rifle with excellent performance but untimely birth was not destroyed on the battlefield, but was unlucky in the production factory.
The drawings that Yang Zhen submitted to the Ministry of Military Industry were the original drawings before the Cultural Revolution that were improved by his old troops during training. It is an unforgivable crime for other troops to modify their weapons without authorization. But in Yang Zhen's troops,
You can modify the gun according to your own needs.
Moreover, Yang Zhen's army has quite a few firearms masters. The Type 63 rifle improved by these people, in addition to maintaining the original high-precision shooting level and reliable action, has long since lost the previous looseness of the gun stock and the receiver.
The barrel is easily deformed and may even emit sparks backwards when shooting.
In fact, before the Cultural Revolution, the Type 63 rifles produced strictly in accordance with the original drawings had few designs that could be changed, except that the wooden stock was easily cracked and the 30-round magazine of the Type 56 automatic rifle could not be used. If the Type 63 rifles were later produced,
The Type III rifles were produced strictly in accordance with the original drawings, and they might not have the fate they knew they would have.
When Yang Zhen's troops were performing secret missions, they found that the newly upgraded Type 88 sniper rifles had low penetrating power, and the officers and soldiers did not like to use Type 85 sniper rifles. So they installed the scope of the Type 88 sniper rifle on
The Type 63 automatic rifle is used as a sniper rifle. No matter how many shortcomings this gun has, there is one advantage that ordinary rifles cannot match. It is high accuracy at a high rate of fire.
When the Type 63 rifle was designed, the combat environment was very different from the war environment that the Chinese Communist Party had experienced. Countries in the world are generally equipped with short automatic rifles and even small-caliber rifles. Hand-to-hand combat almost no longer exists.
Under the circumstances, the Type 63 rifle, which is designed based on a semi-automatic rifle and looks similar to a manual rifle, has lagged behind the entire world trend.
But now, when fighting against the Japanese army who have received strict hand-to-hand combat training and whose close combat level is the best in the world, it is still difficult to completely avoid hand-to-hand combat. This automatic rifle designed based on a semi-automatic rifle is absolutely suitable for the current battlefield.
Especially in close combat, compared with the manual rifles commonly equipped by the Japanese army, the firepower is fierce. The lethality of its triangular bayonet far exceeds the sword-shaped bayonet used by the Japanese army.
However, although this rifle has excellent performance, it is not the most urgently needed product at the moment. For the army, the most urgent problem now is to solve the shortage of anti-aircraft weapons and choose a type that can replace the outdated Sanqi anti-tank gun.
weapons and equipment, rather than the upgrading of rifles.
Compared with anti-aircraft weapons and recoilless rifles, Yang Zhen put the replacement of this weapon one year later. Moreover, Yang Zhen did not plan to produce all of them domestically. Yang Zhen has decided to use the cash paid by the Americans.
Allocate 10 million US dollars to specifically order a batch of such rifles from the United States. In the middle of next year, all remaining deposits after the end of the contract will also be used to order such rifles.
According to Yang Zhen's estimation, this cash exchange plus the contract deposit can purchase at least 600,000 Type 63 rifles. The quantity is sufficient to ensure that the entire army can be refitted at once and maintain a certain amount of reserves. To replace the current troops
Only the imitation Bayi-type light machine gun equipped with a hybrid light machine gun and the 7.62mm intermediate ammunition used in this rifle will eventually be placed in the country.
In order to equip the direct reconnaissance brigade, the imitation Type 81 light machine gun had been trial-produced before the end of last year. It had been in production until this battle. Until the battle broke out, in order to ensure the supply of ammunition, all production capacity was
The company switched to ammunition production before finally temporarily suspending production.
Now that the war is coming to an end, once the steel materials provided by the United States such as the light machine gun and the pk general machine gun arrive, large-scale mass production will begin. When the Type 63 automatic rifle ordered from the United States arrives in the middle of next year, it will
The army collectively changed their equipment. By then, the entire army's infantry firepower will far exceed that of the Japanese army.
After this battle, except for the small-scale production of 65, 77 and other Japanese-style caliber bullets to meet the needs of the internal troops, all Japanese-style bullets will be discontinued. The daily training of the troops will temporarily use the inventory. And from the Soviet Union
Yang Zhen has decided to airlift all the imported Polish-made light weapons to Yan'an by the end of the year, together with the Japanese weapons captured in this battle.
Replace the troops within the pass, especially the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei, Taihang and Shandong military regions. In order to win the cooperation of the troops within the pass, we can open up the land passage from the Jidong Military Region to the pass as soon as possible. Yang Zhen is in great need of new reinforcements now. All the troops transferred from the pass
Not only is it costly to transport all troops by air, but it is also unsafe. Establishing land connections as soon as possible is the final solution to the problem.
Without the cooperation of the troops within the customs, it would be difficult to achieve this goal by relying on one's own strength. Now Yang Zhen's men are lacking in everything, and the most lacking thing is reserve soldiers. In just three months of battle, almost all the troops in the base area have been defeated.
All men of legal age were drafted into the army.
To open up the connection with the pass, it almost means to recover most of the Northeast. The price paid for such a battle will be even greater, and it is simply impossible to achieve it with the strength of Yang Zhen's current troops. This is why Yang Zhen disrupted the original
Plan, the reason for replacing the automatic rifle in advance.
But at the moment, Yang Zhen does not plan to produce domestically. Even if all the American equipment arrives, the construction of the arsenal will still take time. The arsenal will be fully committed to producing enough machine guns for troops to refit and have a certain reserve, and will focus on
Under the circumstances of artillery production, Yang Zhen felt that it was appropriate to order rifles from the United States.
Peng Dingjie, who returned to Chongqing with the U.S. business delegation and will return to the United States to supervise the implementation of the contract and treat illnesses, as well as recruit talents, has already taken away the original drawings of this rifle. The test here is just to come up with a solution that convinces everyone.
Data. Yang Zhen still has confidence in this kind of rifle that he "designed" by himself. After all, this is the rifle he has used before.
Moreover, in Yang Zhen's view, his own arsenal currently has neither the ability nor enough raw materials to produce 600,000 such rifles to meet his needs within a year. Except for the United States, which is easy to maintain,
There is no other country in the world that can produce millions of rifles within a year with guaranteed quality and quantity.
Although I had to pay some precious foreign exchange, I gained time to change my equipment. And for all weapons, the light weapons with the largest production volume and the largest number of equipment are the ones that least need to be kept secret, because they can be seized at any time on the battlefield.
This kind of weapon.
Although a large amount of military equipment has been ordered from the United States this time, especially a number of world-class cutting machine tools and stamping equipment. However, the growth of the military industry is a very slow process. Destroying the momentum will only make this rifle that has also traveled through time become more popular.
Make the same mistake for future generations.
Even when sending Peng Dingjie to the plane, Yang Zhen quietly told Peng Dingjie that the original design of the rifle could not be changed even a pin. How he designed it would be produced by the Americans. Although the Americans had not yet agreed to provide it to him
Export weapons, but Major Pearson has promised to let his father's family help mediate.
Because Yang Zhen has promised that half of the 600,000 rifles, that is, 300,000, will be produced by the Colt Arms Company, which his father's family holds a considerable share of. As for the others, Yang Zhen is prepared to
Order from Winchester Company.
There is already a long-term plan for the replacement of light weapons. For the Ministry of Military Industry, the replacement of the Sanqi anti-tank gun, especially the urgently needed air defense equipment when large-scale military construction is about to begin, is now available.
It has become a top priority.
Therefore, Yang Zhen is eager to urge the Ministry of Military Industry to quickly come up with a result. In order to prepare for the war after the middle of next year, he can also protect the upcoming military factories, steel plants, automobile manufacturing plants, tank manufacturing plants, and
Aircraft manufacturing plants and oil refineries. There are also a series of important targets and big cities such as oil fields and power plants planned in the future.
