Beiyang 1917

The original goal of the National War Army created by Wang Geng was to assign one sniper to each squad. However, in more than a year, the army has expanded from the 16th mixed brigade to nearly [-] reorganized divisions. The expansion of the army made the training of snipers far behind the original idea.

Wu Peifu's Third Army, as the most elite front-line main force of the entire participating army, only managed to deploy snipers to the first level of the platoon. Whether it is an armored division or a mixed brigade, each platoon of the Third Army has a two-man In the sniper team, one is responsible for observation, command and protection, and the other chief shooter is equipped with a field-style rifle with a 4x optical sight and an optical sight. Geng's participating army became a flash in the pan, because of the appearance of the M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle, the main equipment of the Chinese participating army was the field-style sniper rifle equipped with an optical sight, which was useless for the Chinese participating army.

Although Li Fugui is a cavalry battalion, the cavalry are equipped with M1 Garand semi-automatic cavalry rifles with short barrels, but the snipers in each company of the cavalry battalion are equipped with Garand semi-automatic sniper rifles with standard barrel lengths. And the power has not been reduced at all.

At this time of the First World War, the snipers of various armies had begun to take shape, but only the armies of Tsarist Russia and Japan were not equipped with full-time snipers and sniper rifles. Tukhachevsky's Soviet Russian Red Army First Army This is the case, so the sharpshooters of the army can only be mobilized to use ordinary Mosin Nagant rifles to make cameo appearances. Fortunately, Tukhachevsky made an impromptu move and ordered the telescopes of the commanders at all levels in the army to be collected and temporarily deployed to the sharpshooters to observe the target. Use it, hoping to make them display their shooting skills.

Tukhachevsky's requirements are not high. Even if each of these 200 sharpshooters kills only one enemy, the opponent's coalition cavalry battalion will lose one-third of its troops. Wake up, the enemies in the town have been wiped out by sharpshooters.

Tukhachevsky became the fastest-promoting young general of the Eastern Front of the Soviet Red Army, which is closely related to this guy's military talent. Although his troops have not conducted sniper operations, this guy has a very active mind. In order to protect A sharpshooter and save the physical strength of the shooters, he sent a battalion of infantry to serve as shields for the 200 shooters, and each shooter was equipped with two infantry fighters. Hundreds of engineering shovels were given to these soldiers to dig individual bunkers on the front line, trying to protect the shooters from threats.

The sharpshooters of the Soviet Russian Red Army all used the Mosin Nagant rifle, the model m1891 infantry rifle, the production year 18911926, the full length of the gun was 1308mm, the total length of the bayonet was 1738mm, the empty gun was heavy, the barrel length was 800mm, and the gun The muzzle velocity is 615ms. The m1891 infantry rifle is the first smokeless rifle in Russia. It has a simple and rough structure, but it is reliable and has good shooting accuracy. The nickname of "Water Lianzhu".

In Wang Geng’s previous life, the Soviet army used the m1930 Mosin Nagant rifle that was put into production in 189130 as the base gun, lengthened the charging handle and changed it from a straight shape to a downward curved shape, and installed a sight mount on the left side of the gun. In the 30s, the shape of the receiver was changed to a circular shape, which made the sight mount more robust.

The magnification of the scope is 4 times, and the diameter of the objective lens is 30 mm.The "Mosin Nagant" sniper rifle equipped with pe-type 4x scope Russian Пe, which is actually an imitation of German Zeiss, weighs several kilograms, while the pu-type Russian Пy scope with a simpler structure, smaller volume and lighter weight is used. At this time, the whole gun weighs kilograms.The protagonist Vasily in the movie "Armageddon" uses the "Mosin Nagant" m189130 sniper rifle.

Also in Wang Geng's previous life, Zhang Taofang, a special hero of the Volunteer Army on the Korean battlefield, used this rifle to kill 442 enemies with 214 rounds of bullets, setting the highest single record of the Volunteer Army's single-handedly killing the enemy.Moreover, the gun that student Zhang used at the beginning was the m1944 Mosin Nagant rifle produced in 189130, without an optical sight.

At this moment, I still don’t know in which time and space in 1918, the latest model Mosin Nagant rifle in the hands of the newly created Soviet Russian Red Army was just the M1891 Cossack and Dragoon rifle, both of which were issued to cavalry troops. : Cossack rifles are issued to cavalry; while dragoon rifles are issued to mounted infantry to use horseback maneuvers in normal times, and the difference between the two is not large when dismounting and shooting in combat: dragoon rifles are protected by handguards around the ruler, and equipped with There is a bayonet; while the Cossack rifle does not have a bayonet, there is an inscription on the chamber part of the Russian ka3akn? The abbreviation of Cossack

In order to pursue the shooting process, these sharpshooters selected by Tukhachevsky are not only the original infantry, but also the sharpshooters in the cavalry have also switched back to the m1891 infantry rifle. The barrel is short, and its muzzle velocity and range are slightly inferior to infantry rifles.

The effective combat range of the Mosin Nagant rifle of the Soviet Russian Red Army using a mechanical sight is 400 meters, and if an optical sight can be installed, the effective range will reach 800 meters.Of course, it is not ruled out that a master like Zhang Taofang can kill enemies within a distance of 600800 to [-] meters by using only the mechanical sight of the Mosin Nagant rifle.

As the snipers of the Mixed Cavalry Brigade and Cavalry Battalion of the First Armored Division of the Allied Forces, they are equipped with M4 Garand sniper rifles equipped with a 1x optical sight. The effective range is also 800 meters, but don't forget the Garand The German rifle is the world's first semi-automatic rifle. It only needs to pull the bolt once to load the bullet, and it can shoot eight times in a row without pulling the bolt again. In terms of the continuous firepower and the response of the second shot Much better than a manual rifle.

The muzzle velocity of the m1 Garand semi-automatic rifle is as high as 853 m/s, much faster than the Mosin Nagant's 615 m/s, and the field rifle is weaker. Tian sniper rifle has become the standard equipment of coalition snipers.

In the life-and-death precision shooting and sniping battlefield, not many snipers have the opportunity to pull the bolt under the enemy's muzzle to load a second bullet. In this regard, the M1 Garand has an unparalleled superiority.

The five companies of the Li Fugui Cavalry Battalion, except for the company of the 12rd Ural Cavalry Division, which is not equipped with professional snipers because it is still a Russian army, the other four national cavalry companies have a total of 24 sniper teams and 1 chief and deputy shooters. All of them are M[-] Garand semi-automatic sniper rifles.

This morning, when Chapayev's dismounted cavalry regiment attacked for the first time, Li Fugui did not let more snipers go into battle, but a company of three sniper teams concealed themselves on the second-line position and cleared out those waving soldiers like birds. It is very easy to identify the political commissars of the Soviet Red Army charging with guns. First, almost everyone’s military uniform needs to be updated and darker. Second, almost everyone is carrying a leather briefcase. Third, this When the political commissars were attacking, they waved and cursed at the Red Army soldiers around them more often.

Because the regiment that Chabayev attacked in the morning was almost lost in the end, the power of the snipers was concealed by the tragic battle situation. At least 1200 or more, but the Soviet Red Army killed more than 90 people in front of the position in this morning's battle, and more than [-] people died from the precise shooting of the opponent's sniper, which is not eye-catching at all.

Seeing that the opponent sent a sharpshooter to fight, Li Fugui waved his hand and ordered 12 sniper teams from the entire battalion to enter the position, ready to teach the opponent a lesson. You must know that for shooting with only mechanical sights, 150 meters can Hitting the target is a good shooter. Being able to hit a target at a distance of 200 meters can already be regarded as a sharpshooter. At a distance of 300 meters, it is definitely a top-notch shooter. You must know that at a distance of more than 200 meters, a person lying on the ground The head of the shooter here is even smaller than the front sight on your rifle in the shooter's field of vision.

The snipers of the cavalry battalion were in good spirits, and they were very excited about being able to take the lead on their own. The machine gunners took all the limelight in this morning's battle. It is not true that cannons and machine guns are the kings of infantry in this era. False, in the face of group charges and crowd tactics, snipers really can't stand alone, but now our mortars and light and heavy machine guns have stunned Tukhachevsky on the opposite side, this kid sent sharpshooters I'm afraid we want to get rid of our machine gunners, how can this be done, let the mortars rest for a while, let's see the capabilities of our snipers, the shooters of the 12 sniper teams almost all think so.

Tukhachevsky led the division commander's political commissars to stand on the hill in front of the command tent 2000 meters away, using binoculars to watch his sharpshooters, in groups of three with the cooperation of a battalion of infantry, slowly approach each other. The position moved, and I was nervous and excited. The idea of ​​cutting wood and shielding the shield was also his genius. Of course, it is hard to say whether it can really block the opponent's bullets, but the mortar fragments may really be able to resist it. The key is psychology. The suggestive effect of the above can not be underestimated in boosting morale.

This is the same as the infantry helmet. Everyone knows that the helmet can't block the opponent's rifle bullets even at a long distance. It can only protect against the shrapnel and stray bullets of the shell explosion. Obviously, it is more confident than a soldier who only wears a Red Army soft hat. This is the effect of psychological suggestion, and the wooden shield that Tukhachevsky tossed out plays more of this role.

Of course, the 200 sharpshooters of the First Army of the Soviet Russian Red Army were not stupid enough to think that they had the ability to shoot the enemy with a rifle without an optical sight at a distance of 800 meters, so they took it for granted that as long as the opponent's machine gun did not Open fire, before advancing to 500 meters from the opponent's position, it should be a relatively safe distance. What they are worried about is only the heavy machine guns and mortars of the coalition forces. The platoon covered itself, which made everyone's tense mood slightly relaxed.

"Pass down the order, and the other party is not allowed to shoot until they climb 600 meters!" Li Fugui ordered vaguely while gnawing on a baked potato while watching the situation on the battlefield with a binoculars.

"Don't snipers shoot? They brag that they can hit targets 800 meters away!" asked Xiao Ma, the correspondent.

"It means that snipers are not allowed to shoot! Except for the scarecrows and the fake machine gun positions on the front line, everyone else should lie on their stomachs and hide. Isn't the squad leader of each squad equipped with trench periscopes? Tell them to be honest. Now, don't show your head, let alone fight back without authorization, when the enemy has entered 600 meters, I will see where they will go!" Li Fugui said fiercely.

The reply from the Ufa headquarters just now commended him for his victory, but also regretfully told him that the air force could not provide air support to him temporarily because of the thick clouds and strong winds, and encouraged him to hold his breath and hold the enemy down as much as possible. As long as you persevere to the end, once the weather improves, the air force can descend from the sky and show their talents. Victory belongs to the cavalry battalion, and victory belongs to the coalition forces!

Nima, you have to delay, try to delay the time, and beat Tukhachevsky slowly, or else this wave of three attacks, five divisions and two attacks will be over, and I will send him a division to charge. I really don't know if I can hold it!Li Fugui thought to himself.
