Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 304 Rocket Company
Artillery scouts are Wang Xuexin's most important thing. They not only require high mobility but also good psychological quality and cultural quality.

This is somewhat different from the modern army. In the modern army, every scout or even an ordinary army has these capabilities. When they find a valuable target, they will immediately use the radio or telephone to contact the rear artillery unit to knock it down.

In modern warfare, this kind of infantry coordination can only be regarded as a basic requirement for troops. Every unit is required to be the eyes and ears of artillery. In addition, reconnaissance aircraft, drones, and artillery radars can also be used to complete these tasks.

In fact, at this time, European and American troops have basically been able to do this.

But the Eighth Route Army at this time was still far behind. Most of the soldiers did not know how to guide the artillery, and there was no radio station to contact them. Even the scouts were no exception, so they could only organize artillery scouts to guide the rockets.

The artillery reconnaissance team has ten people in each team, and all of them are required to be able to ride a horse or ride a side for three rounds.

This is due to the consideration of high mobility. Some places are suitable for horse maneuvering and some places are suitable for side tricycles.

In fact, you can go to most places with three wheels, and you can also put the radio in the side bucket and communicate while maneuvering. It is a veritable mobile communication base station, which is very convenient and fast.

The disadvantage is that it is easy to be misunderstood as a devil by friendly troops, especially at night.

For this reason, the chief of staff also specially issued instructions to the entire army, including the guerrillas, to pay attention to the small flags on the front of the car to distinguish the enemy from the enemy when they see the three rounds, and not to fight indiscriminately.

The psychological quality requires them to be calm in the face of danger, and to be able to lurk in front of the enemy and calmly guide the artillery.

This aspect is a matter of training, but it is not difficult.

The difficulty is in terms of cultural quality...

Laojiu and the others did learn ballistic knowledge before, but now they are rockets with more complex calculations and even uncertain factors. More importantly, the four teams plus a gun finger require excellent calculation capabilities, which makes it difficult. Level up.

Laojiu complained to Wang Xuexin: "I'm talking about Xiaodongbei. There are four classes with ten students in each class. In addition, there must be a gun finger. How can we say five or sixty people? But our group is connected with 60 small students. There are only this number of gunners for the guns, so change them all to the rocket launcher company? Then no one will shoot the other guns?"

"Old wine!" Wang Xuexin replied: "Who said that all 50 people have to be gunners? Do you need two drivers for the three-wheeler? Do you need two or three radio soldiers, and a few fighters in charge of cover? Just two or three?"

Laojiu let out an "oh" and replied, "This can be arranged!"

Wang Xuexin confessed: "But to put it this way, these people are artillery scouts. We need to require them to have many skills. For example, drivers must be able to fight, and soldiers must also be able to ride bicycles and horses. It is best to have a few people who can learn Report the coordinates to calculate the distance, once a soldier dies, you won't be in a hurry!"

"That's the reason!" Lao Jiu nodded.

This aspect can't help him, who in the army can't fight?You can learn how to ride a horse and ride a three-wheeler, and it's not a big deal.

The vehicle-mounted rocket launcher was installed two days later. Wang Xuexin did not require it to automatically turn and aim like a modern rocket launcher, but simply fixed the rocket launcher on the rear of the car.

This is not too difficult, first remove the rear bucket guardrail of the truck, then weld a few metal strips to the rocket launcher mount to fix the screw holes, and finally screw it tightly on the rear of the chassis.

The reason why it is installed at the rear instead of the center is for the convenience of loading... If the rocket launcher is installed in the center, there will be a process of climbing onto the car for loading, and the tail flame of the rocket may burn the rear of the car.

But it was easy to say, but there was still a little problem in this process. The reason was that Su Xin found that when the rocket launcher was steering, the gunner sometimes had to jump on top of the car and sometimes jumped under the car.

This will obviously cause trouble, so Su Xin simply added a few pedals to the gunner so that the gunner can rotate with the gun body.

After the refitting was completed, the car was covered with canvas to pretend to be delivering goods and returned to Zhaojiayu first.

Qilian received the order to return to Jian the next day.

On the one hand, the seventh company has completed their mission, and on the other hand, Wang Xuexin is going back to take charge of forming the rocket launcher company.

The order was issued by the chief himself. He called Wang Xuexin to the headquarters and said happily: "Comrade Wang Xuexin, we have summed up during this period, and believe that the gap between us and the enemy is mainly in three aspects: one is the plane in the sky, and the other is the ground. tanks, and the other is the enemy's artillery!"

There is no problem with the Chief Executive's summary.

If we talk about other gaps, of course there are gaps, such as rifles and machine guns.

But the gap is not so obvious. Airplanes, tanks, and artillery can almost be said to be owned by devils but not by the Eighth Route Army.

Among them, although the Eighth Route Army has artillery, the range, quantity, and shells are out of proportion, and it is not much better than none.

"Our previous way of thinking was wrong!" The chief raised his head to the chief of staff beside him, and said, "We always thought that if the enemy has tanks, we should also build tanks, and if the enemy has artillery, we should also build artillery. Devils defeated. But now, Comrade Wang Xuexin has taught us a solid lesson!"

The chief of staff nodded and said: "Comrade Wang Xuexin, the chief said that he has learned a lot from you during this period, such as using rocket launchers to deal with tanks, and using rocket launchers to deal with enemy artillery. Fighting guerrillas and passive defense has transformed into the ability to fight the enemy head-on! This is a great improvement!"

Wang Xuexin was a little emotional. The words said by the chief and the chief of staff, such as "taught a lesson" and "learned a lot", are not something ordinary leaders can say, even if it is true.

But the chief and the chief of staff spoke very naturally and frankly, as if it should have been like this.

"So we think we should pay more attention to the rocket launcher!" The chief continued: "Its significance to us is not just a kind of equipment, but a strategic weapon, which has great strategic significance!"

Wang Xuexin understood the meaning of the chief's words.

In modern warfare, strategic bombers, nuclear bombs, and nuclear submarines may play a role at the strategic level.

But now, in the Huaxia battlefield at this time, the rocket launcher is enough to rise to the strategic level to change the situation between the enemy and ourselves.

"We've thought about it for a long time!" said the chief of staff, "I think you're familiar with all aspects of rocket launcher performance, and also understand its function and significance, so we decided that you will form this rocket launcher company. Is there any problem?"

"No problem!" Wang Xuexin stood up and replied: "I promise to complete the task!"
