Zhou Quan asked casually: "Why don't you see the Ying 77 rifle? I see that the enemy on the opposite side has a lot of equipment."
Esiqi hurriedly said: "Yes, that is in the list of seizures. Our National Army did not purchase this kind of rifle, but captured some from the enemy's warehouse after capturing Guide and Liuhe, and they were all new, but No one in our army wants it.
First, the short bayonet of the gun is difficult to install, and it is easy to fall off when stabbing. Second, we don’t have much inventory of these 7.7mm bullets, so logistical supply is difficult. "
Zhou Wen was overjoyed after hearing this. If others don't want it, I want it. Now all the spearmen can be replaced. Bullets are not a problem. Just because no one is using them, why are there tens of thousands of bullets in stock? It is more than enough to supply dozens of people.
I have already finalized a list of outfit changes in my mind, but some of them still need to be selected personally.
I asked Esiqi to take him to the warehouse.
As soon as we arrived, we headed straight to the artillery warehouse. Opening the door, rows of bright mortars filled the warehouse. Xu Dacheng's eyes were so wide that they almost fell out of his eyes. The members of the artillery team cheered even more. They all kept swallowing their mouths, touching this and looking at that, wishing they could run away with one gun on their shoulders.
Zhou Wen glared at Xu Dacheng and smiled at Ai Xiqi: "I'm sorry, brothers have never seen the world and made Director Ai laugh."
"No, no, this is the nature of a young man, it comes naturally."
Zhou Wen said, without even looking at the Shanghai-made 81mm mortars in the front row, he walked directly back and finally saw his target.
Xu Dacheng knew Zhou Wen's vision and knowledge, and he had followed closely to this row of mortars that was different from other mortars.
This row of ten mortars is yellow-green in color and has a caliber of 81 mm. However, the entire artillery appears more refined, and the barrel, mount, and base are all more compact than the Shanghai-made cannon next to it.
Now the mortar used by Xu Dacheng, Lao Maozi, is even more incomparable. Xu Dacheng seemed to have seen his favorite lover, so stupid that he didn't dare to touch it.
Director Ai smiled and praised: "Captain Zhou really knows the goods. This is the 81mm Brandt mortar that the Nationalist Army just purchased from France. Only 200 were purchased in the first batch, and our East Route Army I gave them ten, and I heard they are the most advanced mortars in the world."
Zhou Wen felt secretly happy, this would make a lot of money.
You must know that the French 81mm Brandt MLE 27 mortar is the world's first truly portable mortar. Because it is composed of three decomposable parts, the first part of the barrel weighs 20 kilograms, the second part of the support frame weighs 19 kilograms, and the third part of the base weighs 20 kilograms, with a total weight of 59 kilograms. Anyone in the artillery team can use it in combat Pick it up and move the gun position flexibly.
Each part can be carried by a soldier during the march, and the entire mortar can be operated by three people. The mortar uses two types of 81 mm caliber ammunition, a "light" shell weighing 3.25 kg and a 6.9 kg "Heavy" artillery shells. The range of light artillery shells is 2.8 kilometers and the range of heavy artillery shells is 1.2 kilometers, with approximately 18 rounds fired per minute.
The emergence of the Brandt mortar had a profound impact on mortars from all over the world. At that time, countries around the world introduced the technology and copied it. During World War II, mortars from the United States, Japan, Italy, Germany and other countries were all modified on the basis of it.
This cannon is simply tailor-made for the transport team. They work in groups of three, all of them are as strong as cattle. Each of them can carry 20 kilograms of components and still run fast. Installation and disassembly are simple and quick.
The killing radius of heavy artillery shells is nearly 50 meters. Hey, small-scale fighting is just a cruelty.
Zhou Wen made a big stroke on the acceptance list and took away two of them, including 100 rounds of heavy ammunition and light ammunition. Wait, there are actually training bombs. Why are there still training bombs in this battlefield?
Oh, the rear transportation was wrong. Well, take away all 300 rounds of training ammunition. The other troops can't use it anyway, right?
The group of rustics in the artillery team headed by Xu Dacheng were left hesitant and undecided in the multiple-choice question of two out of ten.
Zhou Wen came to the officer equipment warehouse again. Director Ai was in a dilemma - and had to - half-pushed and half-off, and took away 20 big-eyed pistols with holsters.
What? Irregular?
Zhou Wen took out ten small yellow croakers from nowhere and knocked Director Ai unconscious. He also took away the third pair of German Zeiss telescopes.
The Czech-made and DP machine guns were replaced with new ones. It was not difficult for Director Ai to maintain 6 machine guns. It's not that Zhou Wen didn't want more, but there were only six people in the machine gun team, but they took away a lot of bullet trays and magazines.
I received 20 English 77 long guns, and exchanged old machine guns and shell guns for new ones, all made in Germany.
There are 300 German long-handled grenades and countless bullets of various types. Anyway, Director Ai finally sent a truck, and a full truck was brought back to the transportation team station.
The next day, at the training ground specially approved by the command headquarters for the transportation team, all the team members changed their uniforms and assembled to line up.
Zhou Wen looked at the equipment of the team members with satisfaction. From a pure infantry perspective, the weapons of the transport team are already the strongest in the world.
The reconnaissance team each has one German flower-making machine and one shell gun, which can use 9mm bullets.
The action team has no guns, and each has one Thomson and Big Eyed Luzi, which use 11.43mm bullets.
In addition to Zhang Xiaoping, the long gun team also has a brand new Ying 77 and a brand new German-made shell gun. Zhang Xiaoping still uses a German-made G98 standard rifle, because it is the best sniper rifle in Zhou Wen's mind, laying the foundation for future replacement with the famous 98K. In addition, he is also equipped with a big-eye filter and a pair of German Zeiss telescopes.
The artillery team is equipped with two French 81mm Brandt mortars in groups of three. The main gunners are Xu Dacheng and Cui Dayong, who has the best training performance. Each person has a big-eyed gun as a melee weapon. Xu Dacheng is also equipped with a pair of German Zeiss telescopes.
The machine gun group is equipped with three new Czech ZB-26 light machine guns and three old Maozi DP light machine guns, integrating intensive shooting and precise burst shooting. Each person is also equipped with a big-eyed gun.
Zhou Wen and Gao Xiaoshan both changed to a brand new Yingqi Qiqi, a big-eye binoculars and a pair of Zeiss telescopes.
Miao Hua and Ti Jing are both Thomson with a big eye. Miaohua wears an old wife's telescope.
I'm sorry, senior brother. It's not that I'm reluctant to give you the Zeiss telescope, but that as a commando, I really don't have any use for ranging, so I have to feel wronged.
Tieniu is currently only equipped with a shell gun, which must be equipped according to his characteristics after training.
Speaking of Tieniu, it's really interesting. At first, he was not willing to come to the transport team because he couldn't bear to leave his squad leader. When he came, it was his squad leader who sent him here. When he said goodbye, he cried so sadly!
Such a simple-minded and affectionate young man was deeply loved by Zhou Wen, who decided to train him personally. He also rejected Miaohua's suggestion to teach Shaolin Kung Fu, and ingeniously taught Tieniu Wu to be careful. Now every morning and evening, I use Prajna energy to guide his luck in the palace.
