The First Warlord of the Republic of China

.

Sorry for the late spn update!Something was delayed today, so I had to stay up all night to code.

----

Jiang Yu had always struggled with firearms.

That is the problem of medicine caliber.

Because Jiang Yu can connect to the Internet of later generations, and can understand English, French, and German at the same time, he can browse overseas websites, and some open online libraries are unblocked. [

It is even easier to find the blueprints of some classic weapons. The blueprints of the classic firearms of World War II can be easily found.

But the problem is that not every excellent firearm is suitable as a standard weapon.

For example, in terms of rifles, the M1 Garand is very good, but the M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle uses 762mm muzzles, and Jiang Yu is very envious of the mg42 general-purpose machine gun, which uses 42mm muzzles.

If both types of firearms are equipped with troops, the supply of medicines will become more messy, which will increase the logistical pressure.

In terms of submachine guns, the performance of the mp18 is not mature enough, and the manufacturing cost is not low enough. It has not yet reached the ideal range of Jiang Yu. The more famous submachine guns in World War II are the Red Bear's Boposa submachine gun, the British Sten submachine gun, and the American Thomson submachine gun. submachine gun.

The Thomson submachine gun was first excluded by Jiang Yu. Although it is a submachine gun with excellent performance, the problem is that the structure is complicated, the cost is higher than the mp18 submachine gun, and the pistol is not an international general pistol.

The Bobosha submachine gun of the red bear was also excluded by Jiang Yu because its son was not a general-purpose pistol. The only choice was the British Sten submachine gun.

The submachine gun used by the Sten submachine gun is the same as the mp18 submachine gun. They are all pistols and have a strong stopping ability.Although the Bobosha submachine gun is also very good, its stopping ability is obviously not as good as the submachine gun using pistols.

Moreover, the manufacturing cost of the Sten submachine gun is low, and the manufacturing cost of each gun is only 9 US dollars. If it is produced in China, and the US dollars are more valuable these days, the cost may only be 7 US dollars, which is less than 15 silver dollars.

The parts of this weapon can be produced in small shops. Once a full-scale war breaks out, not only parts can be produced in factories, but also workshops for the whole people can be produced.

The Sten submachine gun also has a German relative, that is, the German mp3008. This is the result of Germany stealing the teacher in the late World War II. An issue where a fire could escape when dropped has been resolved.

And because the mp3008 uses German manufacturing technology, it is not as easy to jam as the Sten submachine gun.

"Obviously using the mp3008 is more cost-effective than the Sten submachine gun, and there is no risk of misfire." Jiang Yu decided to use the mp3008 as the standard submachine gun after consideration.

After obtaining the blueprints on the Internet, Jiang Yu hid in the study alone and began to modify the mp3008. At this time, Jiang Yu already had a solid foundation in mechanical design and firearm design, and learned knowledge beyond this era on the Internet. Design way.

What Jiang Yu changed was the bursting device of the mp3008. The mp3008 can achieve single-shot firing by controlling the speed of pulling and releasing the trigger. Jiang Yu canceled this function to further simplify the design.The reason why the Germans added this design is probably to give the submachine gun to untrained civilians.

And if it is used by professional soldiers, this design is completely unnecessary, so Jiang Yu canceled this design to further reduce the manufacturing cost.

From this came a new version.

In the end, mp3008 was determined to be two versions, one is the military version modified by Jiang Yu, and the other is the civilian version before modification.

The civilian version is more suitable for untrained civilians, while the military version requires a certain amount of training before it can be used better, but the cost of the military version is lower. [

The clip capacity of mp3008 is 32 rounds, which can ensure more accurate shooting within 110 meters, and it will deviate up and down by about half a meter beyond this distance.

As a close-range shooting weapon, it is rarely necessary to shoot at targets 110 meters away.

Then Jiang Yu designed the silencer, making the mp3008 the world's first silent submachine gun.

As for rifles and machine guns, Jiang Yu considered for a long time, and finally chose the 50 NATO, which appeared in the 762s. It is different from the current American Springfield 030-06 rifle, but it is relatively similar.

Of course, today's Springfield 030-06 rifles have not yet appeared pointed, so 762 NATO is definitely the first.

Then Jiang Yu modified the drawings of the M1 Garand rifle again, and changed it to use 762 NATO specifications.

After the defeat of Germany in World War II, the mg242 general-purpose machine gun appeared as a mg762 general-purpose machine gun using 3 NATO. The structure is basically the same as the mg42, and the rate of fire is also very impressive.

For the mg42 machine gun, the advantage is that the rate of fire is extremely fast. Just pull the trigger and five or six shots will fly out.

Of course, the biggest advantage of mg42 is also the biggest disadvantage. It takes only ten seconds to shoot 75 rounds, and when it is used as a heavy machine gun, it only takes 300 minute to shoot 1 rounds. This is a combination of burst and strafing on the battlefield. Subsequent consumption speed.

This is a machine gun that only industrial powers can afford.

However, Jiang Yu has this self-confidence. With a population of [-] million in China, it is still very simple to produce medicine.

The M1 Garand, MP3008 submachine gun, and mg3 general-purpose machine gun were produced, and the infantry equipment basically reached a very luxurious level.

Then Jiang Yu found the blueprint of the flamethrower from the Internet. The flamethrower is the most effective weapon against the enemies in the fortification.

Of course, the flamethrower is also the shortest-lived, with an average battlefield lifespan of only 10 minutes, because the flamethrower is what the enemy fears most.

Then Jiang Yu took the drawings of anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns, mainly for air defense.

There are also anti-tank mines, anti-tank machine guns, and anti-tank guns, which are planned to be used against tanks in future wars.

These equipment are not too large equipment, so the technical difficulty is not high, and it is easy to develop them.But in order not to spread the technology in advance, even if these equipments are developed, they will not be equipped with troops for the time being.

On the contrary, the throwing canister used by Japan in the war of aggression against China was not bad, and it was the only Japanese equipment that Jiang Yu could look up to.

These throwers are cheap to manufacture and have an effective range of 500 meters. They are miniature mortars, and in the hands of experienced infantry, they can cause considerable damage to the enemy.

The disadvantage is that it relies too much on experience, and the method is widely used in the entire army. Therefore, Jiang Yu only intends to use throwing canisters as a weapon of choice for soldiers, and does not necessarily require soldiers to learn to use this equipment.

If all these equipment are developed, there will be no problem in using them until the end of World War II.

In addition to these equipment, it is heavy equipment. [

Such as tanks, self-propelled guns, aircraft, warships and other equipment.

Jiang Yu searched for the blueprints of these equipment for several days, then packed them and sent them to the military weapons research base in Huai'an.

At this time, Jiang Yu established a large military weapons research base in Huai'an, covering the army and air force. The number of technical researchers has exceeded 1000, and the scale is still expanding.

In order to manufacture these equipments, Jiang Yu established many research groups, and the recruitment of personnel began in Europe and the United States.

These days, countries don't pay much attention to the control of scientists' activities, which gave Jiang Yu a chance.

Jiang Yu sprinkled money on these technicians in order to attract them to come to China for research work.

……

The weather in September has entered a very hot season, and the Northwest National Defense Forces have begun to march into the Northwest Region one after another. In the provinces of East China, the Northwest National Defense Forces are recruiting troops everywhere.

At the same time, the troops marching into the northwest also began to recruit Han soldiers in Shaanxi, Gansu and other places.

"When one person joins the army, the whole family is honored."

"Join the army, defend the country..."

These banners were painted on the streets and alleys of the provinces in East China, and even every town and village had these slogans. The local propaganda teams organized by the Lianghuai Administration were working very hard to promote it.

For many young people, the future is full of unknowns to go to the Northwest Agricultural Reclamation. However, in order to put on a mighty military uniform, many young people resolutely sign up.

Compared with the previous recruiting requirements of the revival army, this time the recruiting requirements are much lower.

The recruitment requirements of the previous revival army were astonishingly high, and even the method of physiognomy was introduced into the recruitment process. This time, the scale of recruitment is relatively large, so although the method of selection of troops still exists, it is not so strict, as long as it is not a sign of death That's fine.

The recruiting scale in the first phase was 30, with 15 people forming a production corps, and each production corps was responsible for reclaiming an area.In other words, in the first phase, [-] production corps will be established, which will be distributed in Xinjiang, Gansu, Inner Mongolia, Outer Mongolia and other places.

Among them, the commercial grain base in the Hexi Corridor in Gansu and the cotton production base in Xinjiang are the top priorities.

The soldiers of the Production Corps only received three silver dollars a month, which was similar to the compulsory military service system, but it is really not easy to implement the compulsory military service system these days.

The common people are generally relatively poor, and half-children have to start working to support their families.

Therefore, military salaries still have to be paid. At the same time, Jiangyu has established more and more factories. As long as those military families have the ability to work, they can be recruited into the factories as workers.

If the family members are unable to work, they will be supported by the military.

The soldiers of these production corps only need to serve for three years, and those who perform well will be transferred to professional soldiers, while those with average performance will be transferred to reserve service, and will be assigned by the military department to work in factories.

These reserve soldiers could all be mobilized should an all-out war break out.

At the same time, a group of officers will be retired every year and transferred to reserve officers.

Reserves are very important, and Jiang Yu has already begun to set up a reserve system in a planned way to deal with the outbreak of a full-scale war in the future.

In contrast, Yuan Shikai's training of model teachers in Beijing was also in full swing. Yuan Shikai also established a Baoding military academy in Beijing and began to train military talents on a large scale.

The original headmaster of Baoding Military Academy was assisting Jiang Yu at this time, helping him lead the Huaian Military Academy.

The opening of Baoding Military Academy was not very smooth, and the power struggle between Yuan Shikai and Duan Qirui was staged very fiercely in Baoding Military Academy.

The instructors of Duan Qirui's school are not of high quality and their style of work is not very good, which has historically caused dissatisfaction among students.Jiang Fangzhen had no choice but to shoot himself in front of the students because of funding constraints, but the suicide failed.

China's two major military camps were formally formed in the year of Renzi. Yuan Shikai began to borrow money from East China Bank continuously, and East China Bank also readily provided Yuan Shikai with loans.

Yuan Shikai's continuous expansion of his troops may not be for a showdown with Jiang Yu, but it is largely out of self-protection and defense.

The two sides not only have a certain degree of preparedness, but also have close cooperation.

For example, the equipment of Yuan Shikai's expanded Beiyang Army was purchased from the East China Group. At the same time, Yuan Shikai also began to form an air force, which was also provided by the National Defense Forces, and the National Defense Forces also helped the Beiyang Army train pilots.

In terms of the army, Jiang Yu also sent a group of officers to Yuan Shikai for military guidance, and the guidance was more attentive, which made Yuan Shikai's model division training very smooth. Improved with more advanced tactics.
