Chapter Nineteen Gunner Training
After a period of test firing, the scope vibration that Zhao Hu was most worried about did not occur. This is also because the recoil of the 6.5 bullet is relatively small, and even the muzzle flash cannot be seen, so this gun is considered a success.
Then, he test-fired targets at distances of 700 meters and 800 meters. Zhao Hu found that he could basically aim at targets within 600 meters, but at 700 meters, he had an 80% hit rate. At 800 meters, it depended even more on his character.
At most half, probably because of the strong wind today. Anyway, this rifle is considered successful. Most of the firefights on the battlefield are within 300 meters. If it exceeds 500 meters, that is the shooting range of the heavy machine gun.
With the sharpshooter, of course all the troops wanted to grab it, but Zhao Hu refused. Instead, he asked them to gather all the sharpshooters in the army and select fifty or sixty people to practice with him first. The main reason is that this gun can only
If you can make fifty or sixty rods, you will have to buy additional raw materials for the rest.
However, Deputy Section Chief Liu gave a surprise: "Xiao Zhao, is it okay if the barrel of this gun is shorter? I think you still have dozens of small mirrors. If you make another batch with this 6.5 barrel, even if the range is
It would be good to be closer, five hundred meters away."
"Where is the 65mm barrel?" Zhao Hu was thinking about the barrel like crazy. The original plan was to officially imitate a certain number, but now that the materials could not be collected, he had to use the money in his warehouse.
"In the last expedition, hundreds of weapons were seized and equipped with troops. The bullets I gave you were also taken from that batch of supplies."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'm going crazy for the gun barrel now."
"But the guns have been sent to the troops..."
"Exchange the gun for a newly made 79 gun. It is best to use a 6.5 caliber sniper rifle. It has small vibration and accurate shooting. It will not be durable with 79 bullets."
"Okay, then I will immediately bring over dozens of them and find those kinds of bullets for you to use for training!"
As long as he had bullets, Zhao Hu fired all the prepared sniper rifles and let these more than a hundred sharpshooters practice targets every day. Every time they fired a shot, they pointed out their own shortcomings. The two supervised each other and inspired a sense of comparison.
, allowing them to take every bullet seriously, and their shooting performance improved by leaps and bounds.
It has been a week since the last few guns were manufactured, and there is no way to build a semi-automatic in the future, mainly because the poor chromium-nickel steel in the warehouse has been used up. If the gas tube of the semi-automatic rifle does not use chromium-nickel steel, it will soon be
will be ablated.
After Zhao Hu observed everyone's shooting, he began to take time to teach them how to hide on the battlefield and find sniper points. He also asked each of them to be equipped with a deputy, and he also distributed all the watches and binoculars that he had been keeping.
Minister Ye was immediately furious when he heard that Zhao Hu had equipped more than a hundred shooting deputies with watches and telescopes. Many commanders and soldiers did not have these things yet. The soldiers had to wear them first, and they immediately came to look for them in a hurry.
When he found more than two hundred soldiers standing neatly in front of him, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak. Is this an ordinary soldier? Everyone was wearing colorful clothes, yellow or not.
, gray or not, and carrying fishing nets on his back, with green grass, dead vines and other things stuck on the nets.
Look at the deputies again. Not only do they have telescopes hanging in front of them, but each of them also carries a Thompson on his back. If this company is taken out, it will be an elite soldier!
Seeing how extraordinary this unit was, Minister Ye endured it and said nothing, just watching them train.
Just listen to Zhao Hu say: "In the Japanese army, not only are the commanders graduated from military academies, they also have a large number of non-commissioned officers and grassroots command personnel. Even if their commander is killed, someone will automatically replace him, and his level is no less than
Senior commanders, so the first target is not these squad leaders, squadron leaders and others."
Minister Ye was surprised: "There are so many commanders in this Japanese army, so the academic qualifications of their soldiers may be ridiculously high."
Just listen to Zhao Hu continue to say: "Their grassroots soldiers have a very high level, most of them can recognize and draw a map!"
"Hiss..." There was a sound of inhalation. There was no army in the whole of China with such a high level of knowledge. We were not afraid of the enemy being powerful, but we were afraid that the enemy was educated.
"But they also have shortcomings. These veterans have been trained for many years. Each one will be killed and one will be killed. The land of small Japan is small. When these veterans are all gone, they can only let the old boys go to the battlefield. Therefore, in our early stage
You must be careful and don’t have any careless thoughts.”
"Next, let me first talk about the targets that our sharpshooters have to deal with: First of all, in the Japanese combat team, the most dependent ones are the small artillerymen. They charge with infantry and sweep with machine guns in order to cover these small artillerymen and get shooting opportunities.
Once these small artillerymen succeed, then I'm sorry, the light and heavy machine guns on our position have been used up!"
"Ah? So powerful? Is this possible?"
"How is it impossible? Within one to two hundred meters, they can hoist small artillery shells into the trenches with just a glance, and the hit rate is as high as 80%!"
"Buzz..." More than two hundred people suddenly became confused. This little artilleryman is too powerful. He won't be able to hide even if he hides in the trench. Isn't this a humanoid mortar?
"But one thing is that these grenadiers are veterans who have been trained for many years. Each of them is as good as ten infantrymen. As long as four of them are killed, the combat effectiveness of the entire team will be reduced by half!"
"No wonder, why did I say this guy wanted to train sharpshooters? It turned out to be to deal with these small artillerymen. No, I can't keep this telescope, and these sharpshooters must be strictly protected." Minister Ye had already made up his mind.
"Then, the second one is the Japanese heavy machine gunners. They normally provide fire cover about 700 meters away from the position. Although the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun is bulky, it also has a sight on it. Once it is attacked by them,
Keep an eye on them, the gunfire will kill you!"
"Ah? So powerful? Even Maxim is not so accurate!"
"Yes, not only are their heavy machine guns accurate in shooting, but even their deputies are equally accurate. But as long as these two most important ones are eliminated, the others won't have anything to worry about."
"Next let's talk about the Japanese light machine guns. Their light machine guns have at least two people, who are located on both sides of the squad to provide fire support for the entire unit, so that the squad can advance. When the squad advances within 300 meters, the Japanese riflemen start to shoot accurately. This
At this time, their hit rate can reach 80%, and they can alternately cover attacks for machine gunners."
"Don't think that you can sit back and relax just by placing the Japs within a hundred meters. Their shooting accuracy is beyond everyone's imagination, and once they are suppressed to more than fifty meters, the Japs will charge in groups, and they will even throw weapons within thirty meters.
We need to carry out grenades, so we need to conduct targeted training for the Japanese."
A soldier said: "You are so powerful, how can you target me?"
"The first thing I want to say is that their light machine guns are very bad. How bad are they? If there is even a little bit of dust, they have to strike. If we use small cannons to deal with them, even if they can't hit anyone, as long as they blow up the dust, their
The machine gun is mute."
"Haha, I don't want this machine gun if it's given to me!"
"Yes, so, after we kill the grenadiers, if we can't find the heavy machine gunners, we can shoot the Japanese machine gunners. As long as their machine guns don't fire, even if they kill the Japanese, they won't dare to attack our machine gun defenses."
"Oh, it turns out that the enemy's weakness is here, now it's easy to fight."
"Yes, the machine gunners who fight the Japs are the second or third targets. The next target is obvious, that is, the squad leader and others in the Japs team. They usually have a small flag hanging on the bayonet of their rifles. As long as the little flag is there, the Japs will
They will automatically gather there and listen to the orders of these commanders and five commanders. They are the souls of the Japanese. If they are destroyed, the entire Japanese army will be paralyzed and will no longer be able to organize an attack."
"Comrade Zhao Hu, how do you know so much? After listening to your words, we will know what we are going to do on the battlefield. If we kill these people in the Japanese troops, we will then use machine guns to shoot at their infantry. The Japanese will
Even if you are undefeated, you are defeated.”
"Yes, this is the basic tactic for meeting a Japanese squad, but as sharpshooters, you should also pay attention to one thing. Once you encounter a Japanese squadron, you must immediately change positions every time you fire one or two shots, because there are always people around their squadron leader.
There are a few good shooters hidden, that is, sharpshooters, who are rarely used, but once they come on stage, they will attack important targets of our army, so these people are our main enemies, we must eliminate them!"
Minister Ye, who was listening to the training, took out a pen and paper and recorded Zhao Hu's speech one by one. After closing the notebook, he sighed: "Only by knowing this and knowing the enemy can you be victorious in every battle. It's just this other that can't be defeated."
