9th Five-Year Plan Weapons and Tactics - The best is the one that adapts

"If we can make a 5-6 semi-automatic, then we can also directly make a 5-6 fully automatic. It doesn't take much. If we make it with ten thousand AKs, it will definitely conquer the world. "

The biggest dream of otaku Wang Ruobin after he came to the Ming Dynasty is to "sweep the world with 100,000 AKs." In order to realize this great dream, he has been communicating with his comrades in the steel machinery field these days. However, for the time being, they have not been able to achieve the goal of making AKs.

necessary technical conditions.

"We can always make flintlock muskets. Let's make some flintlock muskets first. "

Pang Yu lowered his request, but he was immediately pointed out that he had made another amateur mistake - the previous request to directly build an automatic rifle was too high, but something like a flintlock gun was too low compared to their current technical level.

"The key point is: in Europe of this era, flintlock guns are nothing new. The earliest flintlock guns were invented in the 16th century. By the middle of the 17th century, I remember it was about 1650, in France.

Our elite troops are already equipped with a lot of equipment. If we still equip our troops with flintlock muskets, we may not gain much advantage if we fight with the Europeans in the future. "

Ling Ning touched his chin with his only moving hand and analyzed slowly:

"Of course, the Europeans are still equipped with early models, but the principles of similar gun types are always the same. Once there is a conflict with us, they will get samples from us sooner or later, and then the technical breakthrough will not be too difficult...

In contrast, if you directly use a primer to load the bullet, it will be easier to keep the technical secrets if the chemical industry is not in place. "

So a group of people began to discuss technical issues again. Various professional terms once again filled the conference room. In the end, several people in the military team couldn't stand it anymore. Tang Jian slapped the table directly:

"Okay, stop showing off your firearms knowledge!"

"No matter what type of gun you choose, the final user will be our army. Why don't we just put forward the requirements directly, and you can choose any model, or even develop it yourself. As long as it can meet our requirements!"

As he said that, the former armed police officer slapped a few pieces of paper that had been prepared on the table. Only then did a group of technical geeks suddenly realize that this should have been done long ago, and then everyone scrambled to look at the technical requirements.

The military team has obviously considered it carefully. The weapon requirements proposed are not too outrageous compared to the current collective technical capabilities, but they are by no means easy to achieve...

First of all, as a firearm used by armies with super-era technology. In terms of the most important firing speed, of course, the requirements are absolutely higher than this era. The specific data is not limited. But considering that it is likely to happen with the northern Mongolian or Manchurian cavalry in the future.

Combat conditions require that new firearms must be able to fire at least three to four rounds within their effective range when facing enemy cavalry charging at full speed.

Secondly, the bullets must have enough stopping effect. When a normal person is hit in the torso, he should quickly lose the ability to continue attacking. The situation of 38-year-old Gai who shoots two eyes but is still alive and kicking is absolutely not allowed.

.

——After reading this article, the crowd all expressed their emotional stability. This article is easy to do: expand the caliber of the gun barrel and use appropriate projectile materials and shapes to ensure that the projectiles fragment or break after hitting the human body.

Rolling around, even if there were any martial arts masters in the Ming Dynasty, they would still be knocked down with one shot.

However, the third article made many people dumbfounded - it requires that the length of the gun body, the position of the handguard handle, and the weight of the butt should be fully taken into account when designing the design. In other words, this gun, in addition to normal

In addition to shooting, it must be able to stab when held up, and it must be able to smash when wheeled. The new army will no longer be equipped with other melee weapons. They are all about long-range and close combat.

The fourth is to directly take over the previous point - the gun body needs to be strong and resistant to beatings, and the structure should be as simple as possible to facilitate disassembly and maintenance. In addition, all parts should be interchangeable on the battlefield as much as possible. Because no one can guarantee that they will be used in the final analysis.

These parts can still be used after fierce hand-to-hand combat. Temporary replacement repairs are very important.

Fifth. and the last one: it must be able to adapt to the needs of logistical support, especially the ammunition manufacturing capabilities of the arsenal - the military team specifically proposed this point. Because they have always lacked copper materials for making bullet casings, they currently rely on collecting copper

We can solve this problem by smelting copper coins, recycling and reloading old bullet casings, but this can only meet the current demand for dozens of firearms. Once new guns are manufactured in large quantities, there will definitely not be enough to use.

After reading these requests, the conference room that was noisy just now suddenly became quiet. Those copycat firearms experts who were making a lot of noise just now all became silent. After a while, Xu Hui was the first to nod:

"Yes, firearms are always born in response to the times. Under certain science, technology and production conditions, and to adapt to certain battlefield needs, the most suitable firearms will naturally appear. But the situation we are currently facing is normal in history.

The situation is very different. Those famous guns of the century can only be used as a reference. Only the firearms designed by ourselves that are most suitable for our current actual conditions are the best weapons. "

"You are absolutely right. "

Beiwei, Ma Qianshan and others laughed maliciously, and actually took out a lot of documents from their arms and put them in front of Xugong:

"As you said, only the most adaptable weapons are good, so we will cooperate with the technical department to develop weapons that are most suitable for us..."

The two documents were quite formal, with their respective contents clearly written on the cover. But after Engineer Xu took a glance, his glasses fell to the table with a clatter...

"About the experience of using landmines and grenades in the previous actual combat and suggestions for improvement"

"The actual combat parameters of the 207mm caliber mortar and the preliminary concept of developing new artillery"

The equipment meeting came to an end for the time being, and the heads of the various production teams gathered together to discuss the requirements put forward by the military team. After leaving the table, Wen Desi and others found Tang Jian and quietly asked him about their questions:

"Team Tang, judging from your requirements for weapons, it seems that the new army in the future does not intend to adopt linear array tactics?"

Tang Jian looked at them with confusion:

"What line array tactics?"

"It is to train soldiers to line up in array and fire volleys at the same time. It was still used until the 19th century. It is a quite mature tactical system. As long as we train a few thousand such soldiers and equip them with slightly more advanced muskets, we can

This era is definitely invincible. ”

"No, I don't agree with you. "

Pang Yuqia came from behind at this moment and objected directly:

"Line arrays are outdated and we shouldn't be developing them at all. "

"In this era, it is far from outdated. It is just emerging now. "

Wen Desi retorted unhappily that in his opinion Pang Yu was an absolute layman on war and war history, but the latter obviously didn't care about this contempt and still shrugged easily:

"Don't be so rigid, guys. Maybe it's not lagging behind now, but its essential shortcomings still exist. Weapons must adapt to our actual situation, and the same goes for tactics. Linear array, just like the long guns that the boys asked for earlier

The same as the formation, it is essentially a waste of manpower, and human resources are what we lack most. "

As he spoke, Pang Yu casually built a stone and drew two lines on the ground:

"In future battles with opponents, as long as the opponent is a regular army, they must have long-range weapons. If we stand in a row or several rows and approach the opponent, a group of people will definitely be unlucky. "

"With the current era of firearms technology, this kind of damage will not be too great. "

Jie Xi said confidently, but Pang Yu smiled noncommittally:

"Yeah, it's not up to us. In the ongoing Thirty Years' War of Religion in Germany, it seems that more than once the phalanx of the HRE army was broken up by Swedish artillery - there were already field artillery in this era. Even the other side

There are no cannons. The Ming or European armies all have firearms, and the Mongols or the Manchus also have bows and arrows... Moreover, don’t forget, our opponents are not computer NPCs. They can learn and make progress. War is never simple.

Regarding matters in this regard, no one can guarantee that our weapons will not be lost to the enemy in the future, or even copied by them. Even if they are not copied, Lao Ling also said just now that France is now equipped with a large number of flintlock muskets. They learn to line up and shoot.

It won’t be difficult, right?”

Wen Desi was stunned for a moment. Although it was a bit premature to worry about this now, it didn't seem to be unfounded.

"So what?"

"What? Then we will repeat the war example of the 19th century - soldiers from both sides face each other and shoot each other to see who can't stand it and escape first. Even if we can win every time, even if our casualties each time do not exceed 5%, such a victory will

'Ten fights... Awen, Lao Jie, I asked you to command such a battle, are you willing to stand at the front of the queue? If we commanders are unwilling to do such a thing, why should we ask our soldiers to work hard like this?

?In the history of China, there has never been an army like Europe that can still walk in line despite a hail of bullets. Are you so sure that you can train it?" {Piaotian Literature thanks all the book friends for your support.
