The meeting lasted almost the entire day and didn't end until dark. [Read the latest chapter] There are still many matters to be resolved - down to detailed operations and planning arrangements - but at least they have reached a preliminary division of labor, established a rough framework, and determined the direction of preparations. Everyone also roughly knows what to do.
Even so, an excitement filled everyone's heart. The committee made it clear that no further discussion about the crossing was allowed outside the office building, but in fact, small groups of people walking along the grassy playground track were still whispering about the meeting and different opinions. There are also some like-minded people who are enhancing their relationship through conversation - of course, mainly talking about their dissatisfaction.
The reasons for dissatisfaction can vary: the direction of an industry, a list of equipment, or just the way someone looks. But as long as there is dissatisfaction, the intimacy between people will increase. There is nothing in this world that everyone can be satisfied with. Small dissatisfactions began to accumulate from the beginning of the career.
The Executive Committee, immersed in the atmosphere of "victorious conference, united conference, successful conference", naturally did not realize this. At this time, the members of the executive committee were having secret conversations with the key players of the sports team alone.
The so-called sports group, although it is currently responsible for the physical training of time-travelers, is actually the prototype of a violent organization for future time-travelers. It is only given such a harmless name to deceive people.
Throughout the meeting, the sports team basically said nothing. In fact, this was also a special greeting to them by Wen Desi, one of the three heads of the executive committee, before the meeting. The scope of the sports group's operations is too sensitive to be discussed openly, even among the core staff of the Travelers.
The current leader of the sports team is a sales manager - of course, he did not become the leader of the sports team because of this profession - he was an officer in the army, graduated from the infantry school, and served as a company in the field army. Chief, he also worked as a staff officer in the agency. They are currently the best military team in the world.
He has a very cool name, Xi Yazhou.
Most of Xi Yazhou and his colleagues in the sports team are retired military personnel. There are not many people, but the military temperament brought by their military experience can still be clearly felt.
"Mr. Wen, this is Bei Wei, the former reconnaissance brigade of the xx Military Region has been transferred."
"This is Zhao De, the former Navy xx Marine Police District has transferred his job."
"This is He Ming," Xi Yazhou introduced the oldest one with a bit of reverence. "He once participated in the two-mountain battle as an infantry company commander and was honored in the battle..."
This introduction left everyone present in awe. This old comrade, who is nearly fifty years old, has dark skin, a slightly gray short figure, and sits with his back straight.
Hearing Xi Yazhou's introduction, He Ming waved his hand: "Xiao Xi, what are you talking about? What's so great about soldiers fighting in war?"
It seems that there are still many honest people among the older generation of soldiers. Xiao Zishan thought.
"Most of the time-travelers are amateurs in the military." Wen Desi considered his words, "Many of them know a lot about weapons and equipment and military theories, but after all, they are just talking about military affairs on paper. They have actually been a soldier and have experienced it. There aren’t many people with guns. So I want to hear what the sports team thinks. You are professionals after all.”
"Well, I want to confirm first how many people will participate in the time travel? What is the ratio of retired soldiers and basic militiamen?"
"It's hard to say at the moment. There may be 500 to 600 people in the end. There are about ten people with the qualifications you mentioned."
"Then we still have to take the route of using all the people as soldiers." Xi Yazhou said, "It is impossible to maintain a sizable specialized armed force with such a population base." He paused, "Fourteen people, even if they are all blue Waves are not enough. We need comprehensive military training. Everyone participates."
"Even women?"
"Yes, even women, but Aunt Tian doesn't need it. Men are regardless of age, and women are under forty."
"What are you training for?" Xiao Zishan wondered if it was the content of university military training.
"We will make a training plan for this." Xi Yazhou thought for a while, "After all, the environment we have to face is completely different. So some subjects need to be deleted and modified. Initially, they will be queues, simple soil work, long and short light weapons. Disassembly and assembly, live ammunition shooting, and simple fighting skills.
"First form a team of 15-20 people, mainly veterans, to be responsible for early warning and reconnaissance work - this is our standing army. The sports team will then recruit some young people with better physical conditions to do more comprehensive military training. The size is about fifty people, serving as the basic militia.”
"These people can't be out of work."
"Of course," Xi Yazhou said, "So it is a basic militia. It has more training content and will serve as the backbone of the force in battle."
"Where's the time?"
"Basic training is thirty days, and basic militiamen are ninety days. If there are good seedlings, I want to keep training until crossing." Xi Yazhou took a pencil and calculated, "In addition, physical training must be carried out all the time - at least long-distance running every day. Sports The team is specifically responsible for doing these things, that is, weapons disassembly and live ammunition training have to be found in separate places. Are there many shooting clubs here?"
"It seems that there is one in this county, which is specially designed to attract Hong Kong people to come and play."
"That's good. It's a pity that guns are hard to use." Xi Yazhou sighed, "The bullets in the club are too expensive. They can only let everyone get familiar with the feeling, but they can't help you practice at all."
Xiao Zishan moved uneasily. He had a premonition that some extremely sensitive issues were going to be discussed below. For a moment he wondered if he should sneak out on the pretext of going to the bathroom.
"It's really difficult to deal with weapons. They're so sensitive."
"Can I get a real gun?" Wang Luobin didn't give up. Although he claimed to have made n guns, they were all made of ordinary steel after all, and they were still very different from the guns from real arsenals.
Modern guns use a wide variety of materials, including more than ten different types of steel.
"Okay." Xi Yazhou knew a little bit about this situation, "But don't use your mind like this. There is a high possibility of something happening."
"Then we can only count on the industrial group to build it themselves." Wang Luobin was a little disappointed.
"Is it created in this time and space?"
"We have the equipment and talents, and the materials are not difficult to buy. The things we make are not inferior to those made by Hualong."
Wen Desi shook his head repeatedly: "This is too dangerous. Black guns are the key target. If it really happens, the police will come to your door in a few days."
"So what? There's no way we can get weapons."
"How about exchanging the dog for some real iron from the shooting club?" someone thought whimsically.
"Then you might as well just go steal the military department!" Xiao Zishan had to strongly object.
"Mr. Wen, please give me an idea of how many weapons we can get now. I know very well."
Wen Desi hesitated for a moment. He might be sued even if he hid a dog, let alone such a real person. However, Xi Yazhou is the future military team, so this level of trust is still needed.
"There are very few things." Wen Desi never wrote down these numbers in his notebook or notebook, he only recorded them in his head.
At present, there are more than ten shotguns of different brands, calibers and models that can be confirmed. There are old-fashioned single shotguns and the fifth company that is often in the news. The calibers include No. 12, No. 16 and No. 2o. They are all old domestic brands, such as Dove, Eagle, Flying Dragon and Double Ring. They are all retained by hunting enthusiasts in the past. They have complete accessories such as cartridge cases, primers, and bullet loaders. However, the guns are generally older and have Some even have a history of more than thirty years.
What can really be regarded as rifles are two Emei brand small-caliber sporting rifles. They are in good condition and have all accessories such as competition sights, as well as a small amount of ammunition.
A rifled shotgun made in East Germany of unknown brand, using an 8*57mm bullet, with several shells but no ammunition.
There are also several Shanghai brand and I-brand air guns. One of the Shanghai brand air guns is a competition gun and has a sight.
"There is no real gun." Some people were disappointed.
"It's very good. The shotgun shell can hit 35 meters, and the single-point bullet has a range of 70 meters. It is not inferior to the flintlock, and it is more than an era ahead of the matchlock. And the shooting range is our advantage." Asia is obviously not disappointed with these messy weapons. "Small-caliber sporting rifles have good accuracy and have sights. They can be used as sniper rifles to suppress important enemy targets from a long distance. I remember that the effective range of small-caliber rifles is 2oo meters. .”
"It's not very lethal, right? Most of the enemies are in full body armor."
"There's so much armor, just a broken uniform."
"That was the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty was not so shabby..."
Someone started to argue about the issue of armor and immediately brought it up in a very uninteresting way. When they started talking about it, a low-pitched voice came from the corner:
"Just hit the head."
This is Bei Wei, a stocky former scout who has been sitting there expressionless since the beginning of the meeting. At this moment everyone shuddered.
Xi Yazhou nodded: "What kind of equipment level the enemy has is for history buffs to verify. The intelligence team will give us a table of the armed forces of all parties in the late Ming Dynasty: including their respective combat power, weapons and equipment, tactics and warfare. Laws, classic war cases, etc., so that we can make targeted plans."
"No problem." The people from the intelligence team agreed immediately.
Then everyone went over the details again. The weapons matter was more complicated, so we decided to collect some intelligence first and then consider a solution.
