Infantry is best used to hit point targets with direct aiming weapons, such as bazookas and recoilless guns, with this weapon against the enemy's pillbox veterans can solve the problem with one shot, if there are no these two weapons, the United States and other allies in World War II produced wild mountain artillery and little devil's 92 infantry artillery is also a good choice, but these weapons spy companies do not have.

The lack of weapons to deal with solid targets and armored targets is currently one of the weaknesses of the special service company, and Li Yong has no solution for the time being, and the weapons of the troops can only be captured, and the captured weapons can only be owned by others, of course, it is not as convenient as it is for him to go to the warehouse to receive equipment in the later life.

The soldiers of the brother troops, who had been suppressed by the machine gun fire in the pillbox for a long time, rushed forward in the shout, and Li Yong saw the brother troops rushing up, and ordered Gao Xiang beside him: "After helping, dismantle the artillery, let's prepare to withdraw." ”

At this moment, the commander with the shell gun on his back ran over and shouted: "Comrade, don't hurry up, we haven't thanked you yet, our chief has come to see you." ”

As he spoke, a few chief-like people came from a distance, and the commander next to him looked at Li Yong and Wang Chengde and introduced: "This is our brigade commander, what do you two call them?" ”

Li Yong and Wang Chengde hurriedly stood up and saluted: "The Special Service Company of the Second Regiment of the Second Column and the Fourth Brigade, Company Commander Li Yong, and Instructor Wang Chengde." ”

The leader on the opposite side looked at Li Yong and Wang Chengde: "Fourth Brigade and Second Regiment? Who is your leader? Li Yong replied: "The head of the report is called Zhao Jin." ”

I saw that this chief thought for a while: "The brigade commander of your fourth brigade, Chen, is very familiar with me, and Zhao Jin of the second regiment is also a bit of a resent, when did your regiment emerge as your spy company?" One company has four small steel cannons, and four heavy machine guns? I know a little bit about your regiment's family background, but there are only a few heavy machine guns in total, and they all got you into the company? So gather you together for me to see. ”

Li Yong and Wang Chengde asked Li Yuming to blow the whistle and assemble, and after a few minutes the troops were assembled, the chief came over with a number of staff commanders to watch carefully.

At present, our Northwest Field Army is not equipped with troops wearing steel helmets, and this time these people have seen it, hundreds of people are all American-style M1 combat helmets and automatic weapons, Tom-style submachine guns on their chests, Czech light machine guns on their shoulders, Makqin heavy machine guns and small cannons on the ground, gray military uniforms without patches, somewhat strange backpacks and grass-green vests, anti-fur high-top combat boots, and melon-style grenades hanging on both sides of the neck.

At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, the helmets worn by Western soldiers were mainly used to cope with the harsh combat environment, and then the bloody war completely changed people's understanding of helmets, when grenades and all kinds of artillery shells whizzed, many soldiers were killed and injured because of shrapnel flying everywhere, and in the war of 1915, 80% of the casualties on both sides were caused by shrapnel after the explosion.

In the twenties and forties of the twentieth century, due to the low industrial production capacity, almost all weapons and equipment had to be imported, and steel helmets were no exception, and after 1943, the new army, which had the strongest combat effectiveness in the Kuomintang army, began to be equipped with American-made M1 steel helmets.

At that time, the Kuomintang army was issued with the 1943/1944 model, the helmet body was slightly higher than the 1956 type that appeared later, and the Kuomintang army in the late Anti-Japanese War also issued a formal steel helmet, the so-called formal is actually an American-made M1 steel helmet, which is improved to be more suitable for the Chinese head shape.

In the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, all the helmets of our army came from the capture, so all kinds of helmets were very messy, there were Japanese soldiers, there were American, as well as British and German, the founding ceremony of our army was worn by the troops wearing the official steel helmet captured from the Kuomintang troops, that is, the Chinese version of the M1 steel helmet of the US army.

Misled by some media and some war movies, many people believe that the main role of body armor and steel helmets is to prevent direct fire from bullets. In fact, on the real battlefield, the debris from the explosion of ammunition is the greatest threat to soldiers.

Fragments accounted for 75 percent of the total casualties in World War II, 72 percent in the Gulf War, and 91 percent in the Korean War, while direct fire accounted for only 7.4 percent.

Judging from the First World War and several subsequent major wars, the limb part of the soldier was the most susceptible to injury, followed by the head, and the probability of chest and abdomen injury was the least. However, the fatality rate of head injuries was very high, coupled with the low level of medical care at that time, as long as the soldier was injured within the skull, it was basically enough, so the steel helmet was the most important protective equipment for a soldier, which is why Li Yong emphasized that soldiers must wear steel helmets.

Compared with the spy company, the brother unit next to him who wears cloth shoes with leaky toes and patches everywhere and carries a messy rifle on his back is the same as Hanako.

There is no meaning to belittle the fraternal troops here, the Northwest Field Army was very hard in those years, so bitter that the leaders of other field armies could not believe it, and it was true that the soldiers did not eat well and dress well.

After looking at the team of the special service company, these staff officers gasped and no one spoke, and the staff officers of these brigade headquarters were all people who understood, and no one gave them in vain. Only this chief coughed twice and said, "This Li Yong, how many people are there in you?" How is it compiled? ”

Li Yong replied loudly: "Report to the chief, our company has five infantry platoons, a reconnaissance platoon, a machine gun platoon, a mortar platoon, a baggage platoon, plus a cooking squad, a health team, and a police squad, the whole company has a total of 437 people, and it has just been formed and is chasing the troops. ”

After listening to Li Yong's introduction, the chief coughed a few times and said: "Da Yong, right, you see that your company has just been formed, it is not easy to chase the main force, our Northwest Field Army is now scattered in brigades, we are the third column and the ninth brigade, my surname is Liu, I am the brigade commander of the ninth brigade, I can't say where your four brigades are active, but I have an idea, do you think it's okay?" ”

Li Yong and Wang Chengde looked at each other, why is this chief so polite? There is no need to discuss anything with the two of us company-level cadres!!

I only heard Brigade Commander Liu say again: "You have to chase the troops anyway, or don't go to the Fourth Brigade, just do it in our Ninth Brigade, I will give you a battalion establishment, even if you are the special battalion of our brigade headquarters, the two of you are a battalion commander and an instructor, how about it?" ”
