Chapter 2272

If you only learn from historical records how many wars Haihan has participated in and how many opponents he has defeated in the past ten years, it may be difficult to have an intuitive feeling, but seeing these dazzling displays of trophies in the military museum with your own eyes

, it is easy to understand why the Haihan Army is regarded by all parties as an invincible powerhouse.

"You may have noticed that most of the exhibits you see here are actually from the Army. So why are there relatively few exhibits about the Navy?" Yan Chujie paused deliberately when he said this, attracting everyone.

After paying attention, he continued: "That's because our naval fleet often inflicts devastating blows to opponents at sea. The ships are sunk, so naturally there is no loot. You can't just grab a few ship planks.

If we come back and put it here, people who come to visit will definitely think that we are bragging!"

There was a burst of understanding laughter all around. Of course, these invited guests could tell that Yan Chujie was deliberately showing off the navy's achievements, but from the perspective of Haihan citizens or allies, they were also happy to support Yan Chujie.

.

Haihan's military operations in overseas areas are basically carried out in coastal areas or islands, so the navy is almost without exception involved, and the results achieved by the navy are not inferior to those of the army. However, it is a pity that Navy Commander Wang Tom is currently

Still in the north, if he were present, he could do a good job of publicity for his troops.

Due to limited time, the officials did not allow the guests to walk around the entire museum leisurely. They only took a brief tour, then went to the pier and boarded the boat to watch the windsurfing competition scheduled for the afternoon.

The structure of this single-person sailboard is extremely simple, with only one board, one mast and one sail. The driver needs to stand on the board, which is only more than one foot long, to operate the sail. The focus of this project is to test the driver's judgment of the wind direction.

and the ability to use the sea breeze to push the windsurfing board forward. After starting from the starting point near the shore, the contestants need to go around several set buoys on the sea to complete the designated sailing route, and the one with the fastest speed will be the winner.

As a future ship commander, of course, you must master how to control a sailboat on the sea according to the planned route, and this small sailboard is the primary prop for training related skills.

The sailboards used for naval training are naturally not as easy to operate as the single-person sailboards used for sports competitions in later generations, so the driver has to spend more effort to adjust the sails and maintain the balance of the sailboards among the waves, which is harmful to physical strength.

It is also a huge test, and it is not easy to successfully complete the race schedule.

But this competition is a bit boring for those spectators who don’t know much about sailing skills. The windsurfing chase on the sea is not much fun for them to watch. They are only thinking about what will happen later.

The weapons display event held may be more interesting than the competition in front of us.

The only people who really care about the event at hand are probably the parties participating in this event. However, everyone knows that Xu Jiajun has strong strength in water events, so it is basically a situation where the other teams compete for second place.

Because this project is conducted in open water, there are no obstacles between the various buoy markers, so there is no shortcuts on the route, and there is no chance for the North Korean team to steal chickens in the last stage yesterday.

Already.

In the end, Xu Jiajun won the first place without any suspense, and dominated all today's projects, once again proving their strong strength in the naval field. Although Xu Yuxing remained calm when thanking everyone for their congratulations, the smile on his face

Yi still proved that he was very satisfied with his team's performance.

Returning to the dock later, Yan Chujie, on behalf of the Haihan Ministry of National Defense, awarded commemorative medals to the winners and then announced that the competition was over.

In fact, for most of the audience, the content of this martial arts competition was not as exciting as they expected before coming. There was no fighting between masters, no shock of guns and cannons, and no offensive and defensive drills.

It's really a bit boring. The only highlight is probably the scene where the snipers showed up yesterday, but it was still too short, and most people would find it unsatisfactory.

Only a few insiders can understand Haihan's real intention in arranging these competitions. But it doesn't matter if you don't understand. Being invited to such an event is a symbol of social status in itself. In addition to getting to know people from all walks of life here,

In addition to making connections, you can also get acquainted with senior officials in your country, which is already worth a visit.

Regarding the situation of this martial arts competition, there will definitely be relevant reports in the official newspapers published in the next few days, and these people present will be able to show off their own experiences. After all, they are the ones who have experienced it, and they will definitely be able to describe it.

More detailed and credible than newspaper articles.

After a short rest, the guests were taken to the shooting range at the foot of the mountain, and then Baikes introduced them to the next weapons and equipment display.

"Dear guests, this time we want to take the opportunity of the competition to show the outside world the latest achievements our country has made in the field of military industry. Yesterday we demonstrated the combat performance of grenades and sniper rifles, and there are still a few more today.

A variety of weapons and equipment are unveiled, and everyone is invited to witness their combat performance."

Bai Kesi's introduction was concise and concise. After a few words, he ordered someone to present the first piece of equipment to be displayed.

"Some guests may know that our army has begun to install a rifle that can fire continuously. What we are going to show today is an improved model of this rifle." Baikes picked up the rifle for display and said: "This

This kind of rifle can be loaded with seven bullets at a time. After each shot, you only need to pull the trigger to unload the bullet and reload it before firing again. The effective killing range is more than 150 feet, and it can penetrate ordinary iron armor within 100 steps.

.In addition, the maintenance and repair of this kind of rifle is also very convenient. All parts are detachable and replaceable. I don’t need to say more about the convenience it can bring to the troops during wartime."

After Bai Kesi finished speaking, he called a Haihan soldier and asked him to give a target shooting demonstration on the spot. Seeing that the rifle fired seven shots in a row without stopping to reload ammunition, many people at the scene were stunned.

After firing seven rounds and changing the ammunition, I saw him flipping a small mechanism on the back of the gun handle, pulling out a thin round tube about a foot long from the gun handle, and then stuffing another identical round tube into the gun.

He turned off the machine, pulled the trigger, and fired seven more rounds in this manner. The speed of changing ammunition was so fast that many people at the scene did not even realize that his action was changing ammunition at the first time.

This repeating rifle is imitated from the historical Spencer M1685 rifle. Originally, it would not come out until more than two centuries later. However, after the Haihan people successfully trial-produced it in small batches, they have already equipped it to Haihan in advance.

Among the several ace units of the army.

After a period of actual combat use, the ordnance industry department also made some improvements to this era-changing weapon to further enhance its combat performance based on various problems that emerged during use and actual combat needs.

For example, the spring of the ammunition supply mechanism uses new materials to ensure that there will be no jamming during the process of pulling the trigger to retract and reload. In response to the problem that ammunition cannot be fired due to moisture during use, the cartridge case has been changed to

Brass material. In addition, the new ammunition supply tube can replace seven bullets at a time, which also greatly reduces the time required for reloading. This may become the key to the outcome of a battle on a battlefield where fighter planes disappear in an instant.

However, although these improvements have effectively improved the combat performance of this rifle, they have also increased its manufacturing and use costs. Originally, the production capacity of this rifle has been unsatisfactory due to the complex manufacturing process. These changes have also

This will lead to a decline in production capacity, and I am afraid that the Ministry of National Defense’s plan to install this rifle on a large scale will have to be pushed back.

Of course, now they are just showing the combat performance of this rifle to the public, and Baikes will not take the initiative to talk about the issues of cost and manufacturing process. He only needs to let the audience focus on the performance of this rifle.

Let them think that Haihan will install this rifle in all combat troops in the future, so as to maintain a sufficient sense of awe for Haihan's military strength.

In fact, the allies who have the closest military cooperation with Haihan are all more or less aware that the elite units of the Haihan Army have installed such powerful individual weapons in small batches.

The military has never disclosed information about this rifle, and it remains an extremely mysterious weapon to them.

After seeing the shooting demonstration, almost everyone can immediately conclude that this is definitely the most powerful standard rifle in history. If all the Haihan Army is equipped with such individual weapons, it will be even more powerful, and it will be even more powerful in the future.

There is an opponent who can match him on the battlefield.

As for the cost of making and using this weapon, it will obviously be much higher than that of an ordinary rifle, but no one will doubt whether Haihan has enough financial resources to equip this weapon. If even Haihan cannot afford this weapon

, let alone other countries. Of course, the premise is that we can buy this thing from Haihan.

But now that Haihan had shown it, there were naturally some people who were silently calculating the price of this weapon. But what Baikes said next immediately shattered their little thoughts.

"This kind of rifle will not be sold to the outside world in the near future. The purpose of our display here is to hope that all countries can fully trust our country's military strength and continue to maintain the same opinions as our country on international affairs. And our country will also use these advanced weapons.

, to safeguard our common interests!”

Although they had guessed that this rifle was not for sale, many people couldn't help but sigh after hearing Baikes' announcement, regretting that their country's army could not be equipped with such a powerful weapon.

Of course, not everyone wants to buy this thing back and equip it for their own troops. There are also some people who secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Bai Kesi's words. For example, Su Keyi and Fei Cexian all have this mentality.

one of the people.

They know that even if Haihan is willing to provide such advanced weapons to the outside world, it will never be the turn of their own camp. And once other countries and forces are equipped with such weapons, it will most likely pose a direct threat to themselves.

Even more dangerous than Haihan.

Haihan sells it to no one across the board, which will not break the original balance of power. This is actually a good thing for Ming Dynasty and the Netherlands who cannot obtain such weapons.

Then Bai Kesi explained the performance data of this rifle in detail. Even a person like Zhang Jinbao, who knew nothing about weapons, listened with interest and was afraid of missing even a word.

According to the data provided by Baikes, after the troops are equipped with this kind of rifle, they can withstand an enemy force about twenty times their size on the frontal battlefield. If there are strong bunkers and artillery fire cover, then this number will be even greater.

.And such data is not groundless. Haihan has had many actual combat experiences on the Liaodong battlefield, which is enough to verify such deduction conclusions.

While everyone was still lamenting the power of this weapon, Bai Kesi had already brought up another explosive topic: "In addition, our country has initially successfully developed a firearm with more powerful firepower, which is also characterized by rapid and continuous firing of bullets. We will

It’s called a machine gun!”

After that, a Haihan soldier rolled out a two-wheeled cart. The weapon mounted on the cart looked like a small cannon at first glance, but upon closer inspection it was not a cannon because the opening at one end was much smaller than the diameter.

It is obviously impossible to shoot a cannonball from such a small opening.

Bai Kesi continued to introduce: "The so-called machine gun refers to the mechanism, the meaning of machinery. Don't understand it wrong. As for how to use this weapon and its combat performance, please take a look."

The machine gun on display is a replica of the Maxim machine gun. The structure and processing technology of this machine gun are no longer a problem for Haihan. The biggest problem is making bullets. If you really want to equip this thing with

Troops, let alone combat, even in normal training, the amount of ammunition consumed is enough to give the military heartache.

And judging from the current situation, there is no need to install such heavy weapons on a large scale for the time being. As long as the manufacturing process is mastered first. The display of this weapon is also to make countries realize that Haihan's weapons

The level of craftsmanship far exceeds theirs, and the weapons they can create are beyond what they can withstand.

Baikes once again used slaughtered pigs as targets, but this time he also had the pork covered with a layer of chain mail produced by Haihan to simulate a target with certain protective measures on the battlefield.
