After Gao Jianguo finished talking about the general plan for the expansion of the army, he immediately got the support of several managing directors, and the night attack on the town of Biquge www.biquge.info made the company break out in a cold sweat. It also made them aware of the threat and the importance of military struggle.

Li Ming thought for a moment, and then said solemnly: "Military academies must also be grasped, with the continuous expansion of the troops, many platoon commanders of the troops are represented by non-commissioned officers of the teaching team, although the military threat we are facing at present is not large, and the non-commissioned officer acting platoon commander can also deal with it, but for the future development needs of the troops, we still have to follow the regularized army building concept to train grassroots cadres of the troops."

In addition, this year, we will also recruit a large number of new soldiers of various technical arms, including artillery, communications, logistics, automobile driving, medical, and logistical services, and the number is expected to exceed 2,000. These recruits will be selected from among all the Liao people, and priority will be given to those who are literate or relatively clever. The personnel of the War Department in various technical positions such as artillery positions and vehicles should be liberated. ”

Qiao Haipeng also nodded and said, "The nearly 2,000 Chinese children brought back by the Navy from Manila have completed their training. The new recruits trained last year, after the experience of the long-distance training fleet, supplemented by those Dutch captains and sailors, are enough to take up their respective posts, and the staffing of more than 20 sailing ships this year is enough.

The two sailboats have been launched, are in the process of final drying, and the personnel have been deployed and are now getting acquainted with the equipment on board. Before the beginning of winter this year, he will also go to Manila with the fleet to spend the winter. In addition, the Admiralty also diverted some personnel to form an offshore patrol fleet in each of the company's overseas territories to ensure the safety of each overseas territory.

The Navy's next step will be to cooperate with the Communications Office of the Military Commission and the company's information center. The implementation of the company's long-range wireless communication relay base station layout plan, will be completed before the winter of this year, our Far East company can achieve long-range wireless communication. ”

Li Shaokun, as the logistics minister of the Central Military Commission, also expressed his opinions.

"During this time, I have been staying at the military factory and communicating with their technical department several times. Several of the new equipment they designed and finalized are already out of the sample. Small-scale trials are being conducted in the troops to verify the reliability of these equipment. Once the design criteria are met, they are ready for mass production.

Including Type 1629 60mm mortars, Type 1628B sniper rifles, and Type 1629 82mm mortars, the new equipment is highly evaluated by the professionals of the War Department and can fully meet the current needs of the troops.

The Technical Department of the Arsenal and the Equipment Department of the War Department responded to the attack on the town of Biquge www.biquge.info. The problems exposed by the troops' equipment were discussed together. It is believed that in the face of the enemy's crowd tactics, the troops lack an effective weapon to annihilate and suppress large-area targets.

Although the D-30 122 howitzer and the B11 120mm mortar were very powerful, this time the town of Biquge www.biquge.info was attacked by many tribes and natives at night, these modern artillery. In the face of several kilometers of long defense lines, they were unable to effectively intercept the overwhelming offensive of the natives.

They have now begun to pre-develop the imitation of the Type 63 107 mm light towed rocket launcher, and the gun mount sample is almost out, but the ammunition of the rocket is a difficult point, and the technical department of the arsenal is developing and tackling key problems.

The expert technicians of the arsenal, although they knew very well the various numbers of 107-mm rockets, now the problem mainly appeared in the ignition system. The battery ignition system of the Type 63 107-mm rocket launcher, although simple and reliable. But we don't have the capacity to mass-produce batteries yet, so we have to use other ways of ignition. ”

Gao Jianguo nodded and said, "This is not in a hurry, the reliability of the equipment must be ensured." It is better to equip a few days later than to have strict technical defects and hidden dangers. The Type 29 40 mm grenade launcher is very good, and after several actual combat tests by the troops, it is well received by the fighters, but now the ammunition is still too single, if the incendiary & incendiary bombs, dart bombs, and grenade bombs are developed in the future. Then the combat effectiveness of the troops will be even higher. ”

Li Shaokun listened to Gao Jianguo's words, sighed and said, "If there are words, I didn't want to say it now." But as the head of logistics of the Military Commission, I still have to remind everyone. Although our Russian-style arms seem to be a lot, everyone should also take it easy.

With the increase of our overseas territories, the plan to expand northward, and the development of Sanstinto Sanstomo and Sakhalin in the future, in order to ensure the safety of these places, each place must be equipped with gun emplacements and machine gun emplacements. Then there is the firepower of the ships of the Admiralty. Therefore, 122-mm howitzers, mortars, 12.7-mm anti-aircraft machine guns, PK general-purpose machine guns, and twin 23-mm anti-aircraft guns have been fully exhausted, and by the time the units are allocated, there will be no more stocks.

And all kinds of ammunition have been consumed relatively much recently, although machine rifle bullets have recovered a lot of cartridge shells that can be reloaded, and 82mm mortar shells can be produced by ourselves, but 120mm mortars, 122mm grenades, 85mm shells and 23mm shells are not available for the time being. Even 14.5 mm and 12.7 mm large-caliber machine gun bullets could not be mass-produced.

Even the ammunition that can be produced now is far from being comparable to the ammunition brought by modern society, and the wear and corrosion of the barrel of the weapon is very large. Then there is not much spare barrel barrel, and the seamless steel pipe we brought, after all, is a civilian material, and its strength simply cannot meet the requirements of modern repeating weapons.

The modern ships of the Admiralty, although they have spare engines and a large number of vulnerable spare parts, will not be able to use them for several years according to our current attendance rate. In particular, three landing ships and two whaling ships, whose service life is running out, is not a problem that can be solved with spare engines and vulnerable spare parts alone. ”

Li Shaokun's words were like pouring a basin of cold water, and they immediately poured everyone cold. Everyone has always thought that these arms and ammunition are available indefinitely, so they have not thought about it.

For example, the company's 50 D30 122-mm howitzers were used for 12 of the three landing ships, 8 for Vladivostok, and 4 for the www.biquge.info town of Biquge because it had just been attacked. There are 2 gates on Ocean Island, 6 gates on Jeju Island, 4 gates on Tanegashim, and in the future, Artem, Herosíma, and Sakhalin Island, there may be no one left.

These places are also to be equipped with a certain number of 82-mm, 120-mm mortars, 12.7-mm anti-aircraft machine guns, PK general-purpose machine guns. Many ships of the Navy also need to be equipped with a large number of D44 85mm anti-tank guns, 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine guns, PK general-purpose machine guns, and 23mm anti-aircraft guns.

Everyone calculated this in their hearts, and they all showed a wry smile on their faces. Not to mention the ammunition, the machine guns and artillery alone are already very tight, but no one dares to take these places lightly, and the firepower that should be equipped really cannot be reduced.

The firepower of the ships of the Admiralty could not be reduced, and the last naval battles near Manila fully demonstrated the importance of naval artillery, so it was impossible for the company to make such a low-level mistake again.

Gao Jianguo nodded and said: "It seems that we still have to develop our own industry, only in this way can we continue to maintain the advantage of our weapons, I don't know if the Arsenal Technology Department has a plan to develop machine guns." ”

Li Shaokun nodded and said, "The machine gun plan has long been on the agenda, and it is still a matter of barrel materials. We brought a large number of 7.62 mm seamless steel tubes from modern society, but they still could not meet the needs of modern machine guns, and according to the standards of modern machine guns, they could not guarantee continuous firing for a long time.

If you change the barrel after two or three hundred rounds, as you did in World War II, it is better to use AK47. So they simply developed a water-cooled heavy machine gun, which can be regarded as solving the problem of continuous shooting, but the barrel life is only a few thousand rounds at most. ”

Qiao Haipeng frowned and said, "Water cold? We are in the Outer Northeast, can water cooling be possible in such cold weather? And the weight of a water-cooled heavy machine gun is not light. ”

Li Shaokun said with a wry smile: "The problem of cold weather is easy to solve, during World War II, we added some glycerin, alcohol or lubricating oil or something, and we added some antifreeze chemical liquids in peacetime, and once the battle began, we didn't have to think about this problem."

There is really no way to solve the problem of the heavy water-cooled machine gun, and the technical department of the military factory has designed a two-wheeled trailer, which can be towed by one person during long marches. In addition, a system of carrying equipment for horses was designed, in which a machine gun crew was equipped with two batches of horses, carrying machine guns, ammunition and the necessary cooling water. ”

Li Ming nodded and said: "The battalion-level combat unit of the army, the machine gun company is equipped with three water-cooled heavy machine guns and three 60mm mortars, and the firepower is already stronger than the battalion-level firepower of various countries during World War I.

As for the problem of the heaviness of the water-cooled machine gun, I don't think it matters. During World War I and World War II, the reason why the water-cooled heavy machine gun was criticized was that the heavy machine gun fire point would be hit by the opponent's firepower, and the water-cooled heavy machine gun was inconvenient to transfer the position because of the poor power of the heavy machine, and it was often too late to transfer and was covered by the opponent's firepower. And the enemy we are facing does not have this ability. ”

Gao Jianguo said with a solemn face: "The current equipment of the troops, in this era, is enough to face any threat. We can't always fight the world with a modern arsenal. We still have to develop our own industry, we do not lack equipment, let alone technology, what we lack is only time. The task of our military committee in the future is to escort the company and create a stable development environment for the company. (To be continued)
