Chapter 414: Visiting (3)

When the German students asked about the method of demining, Wang Guorui replied that the method was based on the methods of later generations. The use of gunpowder ropes for demining is not only more controllable than artillery shells, but also the efficiency is acceptable. The impact of gunpowder explosion is enough to detonate all kinds of mines, which is the consequence that current mines simply cannot resist. However, the German student obviously did not know how to throw this gunpowder rope far away, after all, manpower is limited, and manpower alone cannot throw this gunpowder rope far away. Even manpower can't make or have to throw too straight, and if it's not straight enough, the effect will be greatly reduced. So that's what they're most concerned about.

Actually, it's a very simple question. Why do you have to throw it by manpower, you can use machinery! Wang Guorui said.

"Machinery? With what machinery, do we have such machinery now? Do we need to design a machine that throws ropes? The students asked.

Wang Guorui asked rhetorically: "Why do you have to use modern machinery, can't you use ancient machinery?" ”

"Ancient machinery? What the? ”

"Ancient machinery, such as bows and crossbows. You can tie this powder rope to the top of the bow and arrow, and then fire it directly with a crossbow, so that the route of the shot is almost straight and much farther than a human throw. As long as there are two people to draw the bow, you don't need to shoot accurately, as long as you can shoot out. At that time, the gunpowder rope was cut from behind, so that once it was detonated, a safe passage of about one or two meters could appear. As for the next step, we will continue to expand the area of the safe passage. Whether to let the soldiers pass is up to your specific judgment. ”

Hearing Wang Guorui's words, those German soldiers didn't expect that they could use bows and crossbows to fire. This is something they hadn't thought of before. Because war is already a modern weapon in their minds, they didn't think that the bow and crossbow could actually be used. Of course, Wang Guorui knows very well that on the surface, it seems that the bow and crossbow have withdrawn from the battlefield, but Wang Guorui knows that some special forces in later generations are still using cold weapons such as bows and crossbows. Although the bow has such and such shortcomings, some of its characteristics are still very good. In particular, he has a characteristic that bullets do not have, that is, he can carry things during the firing process. In later life, crossbows can be used to fire ropes or various hooks, which are not carried by firearms. So. Weapons such as bows and crossbows are quite popular among special forces.

In fact, there is no best weapon in this world, only the most suitable weapon, this is for sure. If you weapon in advance. Then you don't fit into this battlefield at all, it's all for nothing. So it doesn't matter if it's a white cat or a black cat, it's a good cat if it catches a mouse, as long as it can adapt to the needs of the battlefield. Even cold weapons can be used.

"Alright. You know how powerful this king is, right? He invented this trench warfare, and he was not only a politician, but also a powerful military strategist. The most basic tactics of our countries in the world are also from his hands, so you should not underestimate the military talent of Governor Wang, he will be a very great military strategist in the future. Said the instructor of the Berlin Military Academy in Germany.

However, one of the students then asked, "Governor Wang, what do you think the army of the future should look like?" What should the establishment of the army be in the future? How is it compiled? What is the method of warfare? ”

And hearing the words of this German student, Wang Guorui also felt a little surprised. Someone would take the initiative to ask themselves about the future army and the mode of war. This war model is actually related to Wang Guorui's future killer feature, he also masters the future war mode, which will be able to walk in front of all armies. And now that someone asks him about the pattern of future wars, Wang Guorui is a little worried about whether to tell them.

"In fact, the mode of war determines the weapons of the army, and the weapons of the army determine the tactics, and the tactics determine the establishment. In that case, let me share my thoughts. The mode of warfare in the future must be to emphasize the coordinated operation of multiple arms of the armed forces. Wang Guorui said.

"Concerted operations? Is it a finger gun synergy? A military professor asked.

Wang Guorui replied: "You can say that, but it's not all. Infantry and artillery coordination is only the most basic coordination, it only involves infantry and artillery. In the future, coordinated operations will require a large number of arms to join forces, not only infantry and artillery, but also many engineering troops, communications troops, automobile troops, and so on, ranging from more than 10 arms to dozens of arms. In the future, there will even be joint operations of the navy and the army, which is also a joint operation of the army and navy. In the future, it will be a completely joint operation of multiple services and arms, rather than simply a separate command of one branch of the armed forces. ”

Wang Guorui knows that it is popular in all countries to separate the command of different arms of the army, the infantry belongs to the infantry, the artillery belongs to the artillery, and even their command organs are divided into different institutions. And this is actually to allow them to command effectively and avoid confusion. However, Wang Guorui knows that it is very important for the army to coordinate operations in the future, and these various troops will be gradually assigned to the following troops, and then multiple arms will be established to fight together in the future, which is a great test of the commander's command ability and the coordination ability of the staff officers. Military command in the future is becoming more and more difficult, and the demand for the quality of commanders is getting higher and higher, and ordinary commanders simply cannot assume such positions.

"What should the future army be like?" Immediately a German staff officer asked.

Wang Guorui continued: "In fact, the future military establishment will also follow this combat method, for example, we must let the army be mixed. For example, in the infantry battalion, there must be not only infantry as an assault force, but also artillery for fire strikes, and even all aspects of medical treatment in the future. The higher-level establishment is even more complicated, and the regimental-level troops must have reconnaissance, artillery, engineering troops, and many other branches of the army. ”

When Wang Guorui finished speaking, a staff officer immediately said: "Isn't the establishment of the bottom of the army too complicated?" We all concentrate artillery, machine guns and other weapons at the division level to use, which is convenient for management, and can also be effectively used on various battlefields! ”

"You have centralized management because you don't have enough artillery, if you have enough artillery and other technical troops, do you still use centralized management? It's like our army in Taiwan, one battalion has 18 machine guns, while one of your divisions has 24 machine guns, and one of our infantry divisions has no machine guns, plus submachine guns and other automatic firepower, do you think it is still necessary to centralize management? If it is still centralized, it will not only make effective use of it, but will also reduce the fire support at the grassroots level. Therefore, once the machine guns and other fire support strike forces are sufficient, it has become inevitable to decentralize the use of these troops. Therefore, at that time, the establishment of troops that will certainly be able to raise the level will become more complex, and in more complex cases, it is necessary to let the commander have better command quality, because in the future, it has become inevitable that the multiple arms of the army will cooperate in combat. ”

And everyone heard Wang Guorui's words, and everyone also had an experience of this multi-arm coordinated operation, in fact, it is also the tactics of a local tyrant in the final analysis. The firepower of the Taiwanese army is enough to make countless people envious, jealous and hateful, and the firepower of a battalion of infantry of the Taiwanese army is enough for a reinforced regiment of the Germans, and the firepower of a division is no worse than that of a group army of the Germans. Therefore, this is also because there are too many technical arms in Taiwan, and the cost of these technical arms is not small, compared with the same size of troops, it will cost more money to form, even the rich British are very rare in the technical arms, after all, the technical arms are too expensive. So in this case, Taiwan is also a biting hedgehog, which makes everyone very hesitant to fight Taiwan. If Taiwan is defeated, not to mention whether it can be defeated, even if it can be defeated, it will inevitably face the end of a country's decline. Even the British did not dare to come to fight a desperate battle with Taiwan, because once the British defeated Taiwan, there would not be much benefit, and the British would eventually decline.

Therefore, in this kind of situation where Western foreign devils have their own ghosts, of course they do not want to be the first to fight Taiwan, but hope that others will come forward. The British hoped that the French would come forward, but the French were not stupid and knew that the British were uneasy and kind, so they would not take the initiative to attack Taiwan. Taiwan has become a "poison pill", and whoever dares to come to eat Taiwan will inevitably die of poison. Don't look at Taiwan's small territory, but once you really have to fight hard, even if the British eat Taiwan, they will have to lose a lot, and the accumulation of the past 100 years will be exhausted. This is the reason why foreign devils dare not fight Taiwan, they all cherish the current achievements, and there are too many pots and jars in the house, but they are afraid of breaking them.

"Therefore, in the future, there will be more and more technical arms, and there will be more and more opportunities to use them. The gradual decentralization of the use of technical arms will be a huge change in the establishment of your armed forces. Your future commanders are all compound talents, and only such talents can command mixed operations of various arms, and the establishment of the army is becoming more and more complex. So, think about it! Wang Guorui said. (To be continued......)
