The two-person sniper team is not just what Thomas and Sun Erwei see.

Another advantage of them is their complementary firepower.

Wang Xuexinchao and the two of the Cat and the Hoe standing in front of him raised their heads and explained: "The characteristic of a sniper rifle is that it has a long range and high accuracy, and the disadvantage is its slow firing speed. If it is besieged by the superior enemy, it is difficult to suppress the enemy from a long distance in a short time and then fall into a passive position..."

Major Thomas nodded in agreement.

This often occurs in actual combat. An excellent sniper does not have much advantage in facing more than three rifles at a distance of one or two hundred meters.

The reason is that the rifle hits a high hit rate at a distance of one or two hundred meters, and the gap between the rifleman and the sniper in this regard is not big, but the enemy has a large number of people, so the battle is one-sided.

If, like Hawkshop, both snipers are equipped with sniper rifles, they often have the option of retreating when facing an enemy of a squad at close range.

But if these two people were equipped with sniper rifles and assault machine guns, the result would be completely opposite.

Although the charge machine gun is not very accurate, it has the advantage of firepower. A charge machine gun can easily suppress a squad of rifles. This can complement the distance and distance of the sniper rifle, making it impossible for the enemy to be eliminated by the sniper rifle one by one at a distance.

Major Thomas was a little surprised. He asked Wang Xuexin: "How do you know these tactics?"

Wang Xuexin replied half-jokingly: "Because I'm timid, Thomas!"

"What?" Thomas doubted whether he had heard it wrong.

The word "cowardly" is a humiliation to a soldier, and Ying Jiang is no exception, so he couldn't believe that Wang Xuexin would use this word to describe himself.

"You heard it right!" Wang Xuexin explained: "Because I was timid, I racked my brains to live longer in this world. So..."

Wang Xuexin spread his hands, and Thomas and Sun Erwei laughed at the same time.

From then on, Major Thomas, to be precise, all the Eagle Sauce soldiers put away their contempt for the Eighth Route Army.

Major Thomas sighed to Sun Erwei several times afterwards: "I always thought we were at the top of the world, but today I realized that we were already behind!"

This is not Thomas's self-deprecating statement.

At this time, the Eagle Sauce was indeed very powerful, as mentioned before, economic strength, industrial ability, science and technology... are all at the forefront of the world.

But this is true at the national level, which does not mean that it is the case in war.

Their army, especially the army, was still deeply involved in the stereotype of World War I experience and could not extricate themselves... In fact, during World War II, most countries were in the mindset of the Great World War, the most typical one was Gaul, and they formed a famous Maginot line of defense.

This line of defense is a joke in modern times, but it is extremely popular in this era.

For example, Hans also has the corresponding Ziegfeld defense line, and there are Atlantic barriers in the later stage, and the Bear is no exception. These are all passive defenses, and Macino is just the fastest collapse among them.

However, Wang Xuexin put modern tactics in front of Thomas... This is not a problem of generation difference, but a gap between generations.

No wonder Major Thomas couldn't understand it at first. When he remembered the swearing saying that the Eighth Route Army would not be able to come back alive with this tactic... he felt ashamed.

A few days later, the mountain company's rock climbing equipment was delivered, so the mountain company's training became more perfect.

In addition to survival in the wild, physical training and platoon tactics, training subjects have also added subjects such as rock climbing, swimming, sneak attacks, and blocking positions.

Among them, rock climbing and swimming are relatively new. Other subjects are actually the basic skills of soldiers, but they have been slightly adjusted due to changes in the environment.

Because time is tight... the reason why I feel time is tight is because the headquarters constantly learns from intelligence personnel that the Japanese are gathering troops on the north bank of the Yellow River for mountain training.

It is necessary to conduct mountain training for troops accustomed to plain combat or mechanized combat.

Because many of them even have problems marching in the mountains... Plain marching is different from mountain marching, and the muscles used are different, just like people who can run may not be able to do squats.

Therefore, the headquarters can't wait for the independent group's mountain range to be perfected.

The leader said this: "We also want to train the most elite troops step by step to fight the enemy, but the battlefield does not wait for people. The enemy will not wait for us to prepare before attacking! We can fight and learn while fighting, at least we will not be unprepared!"

The Chief of Staff also nodded in favor.

Therefore, Wang Xuexin's method and training subjects for forming mountain troops were quickly compiled into a booklet and distributed to various troops to study... These tactics are actually not just used to form mountain companies, because the Eighth Route Army fought against the enemy more in the mountainous areas, so many ordinary troops were also studying.

Two of the sniper teams were suitable for all troops and spread throughout the army.

The integrated grenades were transported to the first batch of fifty units in two weeks.

This integration method is very primitive, which is to simply integrate the grenade launcher under the m1 rifle guardrail, and then install a pistol-like magazine and trigger... At this time, the launch method of the Eagle Sauce grenade is to fire the grenade by firing empty packages, so the bullet cabin needs to be installed.

Wang Xuexin tried this gun, and it was indeed as heavy as he had imagined before, and it was inconvenient to operate... The gun that integrates grenade launchers is generally a lightweight assault rifle. If integrated with the m1 Garland, which is not light, its weight will increase to a comparable to a light machine gun.

But there is no way to do this, the transition type in the middle will be used!

But a few days later, Ying Jiang found a solution, and they shipped the second batch, which was integrated with the m1 carbine.

The m1 carbine is much lighter, less than five kilograms, and the grenade launcher is only a little heavier than the empty space of the m1 Garland rifle. (Note: the m1 Garland empty weight is 8.7 kilograms)

Another thing that made Wang Xuexin very satisfied was that the m1 carbine still used 15 round magazines, and this firepower is a very good equipment for self-defense defense.

(Note: The purpose of the development of the m1 carbine is to be used for self-defense by officers and logistics personnel)

Sun Erwei explained: "Wang, we have not finalized this gun. It is a new weapon. It was temporarily put into use in order to meet your requirements. I hope it will satisfy you!"

"Thank you, Sun Erwei!" Wang Xuexin was very satisfied with the modification of this gun. Although the m1 carbine had the problem of insufficient power and insufficient range, the grenade shooter only required defense and self-defense in terms of guns.

If there is any disadvantage, it is that the bullets of the m1 carbine are quasi-intermediate power bullets between pistol bullets and rifle bullets... This complicated the logistics of the troops.
