In the next four days, not only the commando team members, but Kong Jie also joined them to train together and become familiar with the newly captured standard equipment of Yamamoto's special agent team and others.
With Kong Jie’s experience, he is naturally more knowledgeable than the team members. He introduced to the team members the structure of each part of the German-made MP38 gun...a magazine loaded with 32 bullets, a continuous shooting method, and a nine-millimeter pistol bullet. Supply ammunition.
"This German-made MP38 submachine gun is a fully automatic submachine gun. When the trigger is pressed, the bullets will fire continuously until all 32 rounds of bullets are empty. Everyone has seen its rate of fire when we fought with the Japanese. , quite scary.”
"Also, I don't know if you have noticed that although the rate of fire of this submachine gun is terrifying, when the enemy is fighting, most of the time they still shoot in bursts."
"Press the trigger briefly, then quickly release it. Three or two bullets are fired, which is considered a burst shot. The shooting accuracy of the first few bullets of the submachine gun is still quite high. The accuracy of continuous shooting will be greatly reduced, even if it is a gun-pressure technique. Even if you are skilled, you may not be able to control it, so except for face-to-face close fire exchanges, everyone should try not to use continuous shooting."
Just theoretical teaching is not enough. Kong Jie also led the team members into the mountains to test-fire the German-made MP38 submachine gun.
This made the team members secretly lament the generosity of their regiment leader. If it were left to other Eighth Route Army regiments, there would not be such a waste of ammunition. Training with live ammunition is a luxury enough.
"How can there be a return without investment? If we waste three to two hundred bullets now, we can seize ten times or even dozens of times the number of bullets later."
"This is called a business that is sure to make a profit without losing any money. Please open your horizons a little bit."
Kong Jie explained that his personal charm is constantly increasing, and every move he makes seems to have a convincing magic power.
The team members nodded like chickens pecking at rice to show their understanding.
"Insert the magazine, hold the handle with your right hand, and pull back the submachine gun handle with your left hand. The bullet will be loaded and ready to fire."
“After all the bullets in the magazine are empty, it needs to be reloaded. Press the magazine release button with your right thumb to remove the magazine, pull the handle back and place it in the hanging slot on the receiver to confirm the empty chamber. Load a new magazine, then press the lever to release it from the receiver’s mounting slot, and you’re ready to shoot.”
Kong Jie said it in detail, and the reason was sad. Submachine guns, such extravagant expendable weapons, were simply unaffordable for the Eighth Route Army.
There are only a few Jin-made submachine guns in the entire independent regiment, and their performance is quite poor.
So even the commando members don't know much about submachine guns.
………………
Four days flew by like this.
When the twenty-six members of the commando team, including Kong Jie, a total of twenty-seven people, were equipped with the sophisticated equipment of the Yamamoto special agent team, they gathered together again. After four days of running-in with these equipment, everyone was already quite familiar with it. familiar.
Kong Jie was ready to take action in advance and rushed to the Japanese prisoner-of-war camp in Niutoushan.
After checking the equipment for the last time before setting off, Kong Jie looked at the commando members standing neatly in front of him.
This time when we went to rescue Wei Dayong and the Chinese prisoners of war, we naturally couldn't go there in ostentatious uniforms of the Eighth Route Army. That would be too ostentatious, so the team members put on the clothes of ordinary people.
Kong Jie said: "This operation is of great significance to our commando team. In addition, I might as well tell you that our opponents are likely to be the Japanese we encountered at night."
"How's it going? Do you have confidence?"
Cao Zheng, the leader of the fire team, said in a deep voice: "Captain, we sacrificed many comrades in the battle at Yangcun. My fire team member Di Gua was also seriously injured. It was all the work of these idiots. If we really could have collided with each other, Kill these devils to avenge the sacrificed comrades, we are too late to be happy!"
The other team members also responded.
"good!"
Kong Jie nodded solemnly, "Let's go kill a group of Japs and collect some interest for the sacrificed brothers first."
He continued to give instructions: "This time our goal is Niutoushan, which is twenty or thirty miles away from our base. The distance is too far. The terrain on the road is complicated, and there are various forces involved. The Shanxi-Sui Army, The Central Army and the Japanese and puppet troops may collide at any time."
"Although I have planned the route to Niutoushan in advance, the battlefield situation is changing rapidly. No one can guarantee whether there will be any accidents on the way. We must not be exposed before reaching the destination."
"This sortie is light and simple. As for the equipment, do you have to worry about not capturing it after killing the Japanese? Except for the sniper team members who bring the equipped rifles, others don't need to bring rifles. They only need to bring shell guns and submachine guns. .”
"If the caliber of the shell gun is not nine millimeters, bring some pistol bullets. As for the submachine gun, there is no need to bring bullets. A fully loaded German MP38 magazine has 32 rounds of bullets, and each person is equipped with 6 fully loaded ones. Without the bullet magazine, this is 192 rounds of bullets, which is enough."
The magazine of the German-made MP38 submachine gun is absolutely sufficient.
The Japanese special agents who attacked Yangcun also played this way.
Although a Japanese soldier is only equipped with a German-made MP38 submachine gun, he carries five or six magazines full of bullets.
After severely damaging the Yamamoto Special Forces, Kong Jie seized 42 submachine guns, 10 of which were damaged, but the magazines were still usable, plus the number of magazines seized from the Japanese far exceeded the number of submachine guns.
The commando team in front of us can also be equipped in this way.
"I have put on the bulletproof vest. The craftsmanship of these bulletproof vests worn by the little devil is very high. Some of the embedded steel plates block the vital points, and other parts are connected with some special lightweight materials. They are very flexible and It’s not bulky. Although under direct fire at close range, not to mention rifle and machine gun bullets, even submachine gun bullets can’t be blocked. However, if the distance is far enough, the defense effect against small-caliber pistol bullets and fragments is still very good. of."
In addition, Kong Jie also asked the team members to bring one or two days' rations each, mainly some high-energy compressed biscuits seized from the little devils, which did not account for much weight and volume.
After finally checking the commando's military appearance, in the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Kong Jie waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"
As for the Independent Regiment, Kong Jie temporarily handed it over to his three battalion commanders, and told him to pay attention to strengthening vigilance in the past few days while he was away, and not to conduct any military operations for the time being.
If the brigade commander calls, he will say that the regiment commander Kong Jie has taken the soldiers into the mountains for training.
Another battalion commander, Wang Leihu, will lead his troops one day later to wait at the outermost edge of the independent regiment's defense zone to meet Kong Jie and his party.
……………………
Yamamoto Kazuki's life has not been easy recently. The accusations, questions, and ridicules from various departments of the Japanese army have made him somewhat breathless.
The beheading operation against the headquarters of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army failed.
The special agent team was even severely damaged by the Eighth Route Army troops in Yangcun. Although Yamamoto made up for his lost time, he sneakily attacked the 57th Regiment of the Shanxi-Sui Army and killed the 57th Regiment headquarters. His outstanding performance shocked the entire northwestern Shanxi.
However, many people from the top brass of the Japanese army still spoke with disdain and ridicule.
Most of them were Japanese Army officers from the middle and senior levels. These arrogant and conservative guys had always scorned Yamamoto, a crazy person who tried to use special operations to revolutionize the military field and even break the deadlock in the North China War.
In the end, Yoshio Shinozuka, the commander of the Japanese First Army in Shanxi, who had high expectations for Yamamoto, fought against all odds and got Yamamoto a chance to join the special agent team to prove himself again...
