Tomorrow's Ark, the journey of hardcore and ruthless people

The fighters of the integration movement seemed very clumsy. It was difficult for the hands holding hoes and mining picks to adapt to weapons, and it was a long way to become a qualified private soldier.The simplest way to align to the right requires instructors to teach for a day.After the exercise, they have to go to the company to check the internal affairs and communicate with the soldiers.There is an unshakable five-kilometer training every week, and there is "support construction" every month-as a style that everyone is too familiar with, it is often hallucinated into the existence of another army. The People's Federation Armed Forces often use labor for Assist in social production and construction work.

The reality uses the most straightforward method to educate the "special consultants" who have a sense of superiority because of time travel: a strong army can only be built up through hard and meticulous work, rather than relying on a few advanced weapons, Tell your subordinates that there are several new tactics that will make them invincible.

Therefore, when Comand asked everyone for advice on the small arms configuration of the integrated movement infantry unit, there was a frenzy of excitement all at once.In this boring environment, this is somewhat entertaining.Soon Comand collected more than 100 various documents in his e-mail box, and he looked at the reviewers with embarrassment.

The most widely used light weapon of the People's Federation Army is of course the laser rifle.These things only weighed more than two kilograms, and with a battery pack the size of a 150-round magazine, they could output the killing effect equivalent to 113 to 35 rounds of full-power rifle ammunition, with almost no recoil, and extraordinary accuracy.In order to limit the spread of technology and control the development of the indigenous power of Terra, the 98th Division cannot directly use standard laser rifles such as the M[-] "Galaxy" or Lucius [-] to arm the integration movement-so they must provide them with a batch of chemical weapons Can light arms.

到底给什么枪？人们各抒己见。从汉阳造、莫辛纳甘等拉大栓到M1加兰德，SVT40，G43和56式半自动等半自动步枪，又到“在乌萨斯不用这个还该用啥”的AK步枪党和紧随其后出现的AR步枪党（后者的主力是HK416派），再到M14、G3、FAL这些打7.62X51NATO弹的自动步枪……

There are also many side-by-side proposals, such as the Type 63 automatic rifle, the M109 carbine that uses the SS5.7 28X1MM high-speed pistol ammunition, and even the idea of ​​using a revolver rifle, which is a "black hole above the neck".Everyone's bad taste in rifles is collected.

Choosing the right infantry weapon is a problem that cannot be sloppy. The rifle itself is not expensive, but it can be equipped with the army, paramilitary organizations and stock reserves, and the overall cost becomes quite astonishing.What kind of firearms to choose is a very serious and costly matter, and the national industrial level must also be taken into account.Since this matter has attracted the attention of the general public, and it has a far-reaching impact on human life, it is natural for Comand to make no claims.He convened a hearing from the integration movement and the 113th Division, with representatives from the military, scientific research and industry, to review and discuss all plans.

The first is "full exchange of views."

The gun is used to hit the enemy, so we must first figure out the enemy's situation.

The situation is very interesting. Before Renlian intervened, this universe began to deviate from the familiar Arknights - such as the appearance of black powder and guns.One of the characteristics of muskets is that their armor-piercing ability far exceeds that of bows and crossbows.This made the soldiers on "this land" go to two extremes in stacking armor.

Most people are shot down when they put on armor, so why wear that dead armor?Therefore, in the current Ursus army, apart from shield guards and warlocks, the rest of the "Assault Crossbowman", "Assaulter", "Imperial Vanguard", and "Hundred Battle Elite" are just unit titles or honorary titles—now Everyone is a rifleman.

A small number of people are desperately stacking armor, stacking thickness stacking technology stacking origin stone skill "enchanting", stacking to the point where the shotgun of the six-pound gun and the lead ball with a diameter of more than ten millimeters of the musket will only ricochet in a fancy way—— For example shield guards.The average physical fitness of the people of Tyraya is quite strong.Even the elite special forces from various countries in Rainbow Six next door can only be evaluated as "standard" and "normal" in terms of physical strength.

And their equipment is also very strong. According to the test of the samples provided by the Patriot Guerrillas by the 113th Division, these shields and armor pieces will be effectively penetrated by full-power rifle bullets and cause the wearer to wear them when the distance is shortened to 100 meters. Disability.

You must know that these armors and shields have been used for a long time and lack high-level maintenance, and their design ideas are also quite backward-currently, the countries of Terra have not formed a systematic theory in the disciplines of armor protection and armor-piercing mechanics, and there will be no Things like composite armor bulletproof plates.These protective equipment have achieved such a powerful effect based on the material properties and physical thickness alone!

Judging from the narrations of Patriot and other Ursus veterans and the Ursus army combat manuals provided, Ursus and other Terran armies have never lacked coats and heavy armor, and they can wield big swords, Giant axes, chain hammers, shouting "Demacia!", "For the Horde!", "Ulla!", "Waaagh!" Super hunks and sluts who charge and even jump up and down, parkour and disco.Of course, even among the Tyrayans, the relative and absolute numbers of such heaven-defying characters are not very large.

However, there were only five infantry regiments in the first batch of planned armies of the integration movement, but Ursas had eight armies!Even if ten enemies are exchanged for one of our fighters, such a beautiful exchange ratio will make the current integration movement feel unbearable.The enemy piled up a path with corpses, protected the warlocks and rushed in. They used various spells to kill the machine guns within the optimal distance to ensure the hit rate and casting speed, and then swarmed them with crowds and shield guards. This kind of result is what the integration movement does not want to see arrived.

It was also easy for the 113th Division to arm the entire Soviet armed forces during the "August [-]st Military Exercise" in one year.However, it was only a backward agricultural society that supported the integration movement, and there was basically no military education system.The problem of the quality of soldiers also makes some of the "low-level" heavy weapons manufactured in advance by the League can only eat ashes in the warehouse.

Since the integration movement can only build part of the foot infantry that has realized mules and horses, and can only rely on the infantry combat system to overwhelm the massive infantry of Ursus, it is necessary to organize infantry firepower with sufficient density, range, and lethality. .The conclusion, then, is obvious.

"Non-automatic weapons can be given up." Comand spread his hands regretfully to the big bolt enthusiasts, "Rifles must be at least semi-automatic."

The generals in the infantry squad have the task of organizing the firepower network and covering the machine gun team together with the machine gun.This kind of task is difficult for slow-fire manual rifles and limited-range submachine guns.Moreover, the machine gun cannot be a squad machine gun equipped with a heavy barrel and a large-capacity ammunition supply for an automatic rifle. A general-purpose machine gun fed with ammunition belts must be assigned to the infantry squad.

Finally, mule-horse transportation has limited the number and ammunition load of light artillery such as mortars, rocket launchers, grenade launchers, and recoilless guns in infantry companies.Therefore, the rifle must also have a certain anti-shield guard capability.

Further refine the requirements, that is: automation, good firepower continuity, long range, powerful ammunition, better accuracy, low failure rate, moderate weight and easy to carry and move on foot.The problem then becomes one of many semi-automatic and automatic rifles.

As representatives of the troops (Party A), the military cadres of the Integration Movement and the instructors of the People's Federation immediately specified several requirements:

Can adapt to the extreme low temperature of the Northwest tundra, resistant to dust and water ingress: if one or two sources of stone powder or snow dust enters, the mud will freeze on the gun, and the bolt will still be rattling; it is also required to face other possible problems in the future. Reliable even in harsh environments;

It is required to be resistant to rough use, smashing the door, hitting the wall and throwing it on the ground, which basically does not affect the performance; it is also required to be simple to operate and maintain, and easy to repair to reduce maintenance pressure. degree of complete assembly;

It is required to be light to reduce the physical requirements in the conscription conditions, and the mechanical action is required to be absolutely reliable, and the failure probability is low enough to be acceptable under the premise of low maintenance or even no maintenance.This is already a concession, and users who want to use it to their lives do not want to accept any failure probability;

It is required to be safe and reliable to avoid accidents, and its insurance is required to be easily removed so as not to be unable to respond quickly;

It is required to be short in length for easy portability, and it is required to have a long barrel to ensure ballistic performance and penetration;

Require……

You can't see the expressions of the space marine tech sergeants in helmets and the mechanical priests in red robes.Therefore, the representatives of the military industry also began to make demands:

The production performance of the new gun is required to be excellent enough, not to exceed the processing capacity of most of the production lines in the future industrial planning of the integrated movement, and the supply cannot be guaranteed by just a few very good arsenals during wartime;

It is required that it can use the hundreds of millions of rounds of military ammunition that have recently been dug out from the corners of the warehouse of the 113th Division;

The request cannot involve any strategically scarce supplies, which should require no explanation;

Ask for it to be cheap enough...

The scientific research representatives were amused by this group of Party A. Their leader, a group of friends in red robes, the sage Cybernica roared: "Zinima, use Sten! Use it if you like it, don't go away!"

The army representatives also scolded: "Damn you, you just lost your hair, I might lose your head with this thing!"

The representative of the industrial department is caught in the middle: the industrial department of the 113th Division has just started to teach the integration movement the "primary industrial gift bag", and the integration movement is even difficult to repair firearms...

Comand coughed twice, got up to smooth things over and changed the subject:

Look at the gun and watch the bullet first.Ammunition directly determines the range, penetration and accuracy of a firearm.Therefore, the type of ammunition for integrated sports infantry weapons should be selected first.

But this brings up another problem: to determine the suitable rifle ammunition for the people of Terraya.Although the physical fitness of the Tyrayans is generally stronger than that of the human naked apes on Earth, it is impossible for them to use 12.7×108mm as a rifle bullet, even if the physique is strong enough.Because the body surface area of ​​Terra natives is so large, the amount of ammunition they carry is similar to that of naked human apes.

However, it is not necessary to use intermediate power bullets and small-caliber rifle bullets like the assault rifles on the earth.In any case, these two types of ammunition are not as penetrating as full-power rifle ammunition with a large bullet.Their appearance is to a considerable extent to accommodate the weak physical fitness of naked apes on earth, reduce the recoil of firearms and increase the amount of ammunition carried and the rate of fire.People in Tailaya can fully adapt to the recoil force caused by a larger charge, popularize 7.62×51 NATO fully automatic, and all employees are equipped with Russian standard six-level bulletproof inserts, and they can walk like flying.

"However, there is still room for improvement. First, the lethal performance of standard rifle bullets must be at the same level as full-power rifle bullets such as 7.62x51 and 7.62x54R. Otherwise, individual soldiers cannot effectively fight against heavy armored infantry such as shield guards. .Second, on the basis of ensuring the first point, it is necessary to choose light and small ammunition as much as possible to increase the ammunition capacity and ensure the continuity of firepower." Comand finally drew the range.

After removing the various options one by one according to the requirements, the answer finally began to emerge——

"start".

The representatives of the troops, scientific research representatives and factory representatives from the People's Federation have moved their chairs together to form a circle and began to conduct feasibility analysis on technical details.

"Our first goal now is to have ammunition with the penetration capability and range of full-power bullets, and the second goal is to reduce weight, so we should do subtraction on the basis of full-power bullets. It may not be appropriate to strengthen small-caliber or medium-power bullets. .”

"What is our batch of leftover ammunition, 7.62X41? Wait, what is the ballistic coefficient model for military rifle ammunition? Oh, G7. What is the G7 coefficient of this thing... Let me figure it out."

"No need, I brought the technical information of that kind of bomb. It's not bad, not much worse than 54R."

"What do you guys think about the warhead issue?"

"The conventional copper jacket steel core is almost the same. If you want to further adjust the density, you can rely on the blank bullet and the steel-lead composite bullet core."

"What about the caliber and aspect ratio?"

Participants who were not from the People's Federation found the topic completely incomprehensible.For them, such words are too professional.

Tallulah looked at the tables, curves, and formulas played in the air with stereoscopic projection, and covered her forehead, as if remembering something unbearable to look back on.

As the representative of the troops, the patriots were confused by the "ballistic coefficient", "bore pressure", "external ballistics" and "muzzle velocity" that swarmed in. Bozhuokas felt that these terms were completely beyond the scope of personal understanding. He could only politely keep silent: "..."

Shuangxing scratched her head with a bitter face, and finally gave up her plan to ask.Regarding the sentence she just heard, she can only understand that it refers to herself: "It's nonsense to shoot full-power bullets with short barrels, but AK and AR with a support configuration and a full-size barrel can be more than one meter long. .Do you have any opinions about the special warfare group of snow monsters and the future mechanized infantry?"

The final result came out.

康曼德大声念着结论：“可以使用库存7.62X41MM通用弹，用于装备新式自动步枪、通用机枪和狙击步枪。该弹可以用接近M43型7.62*39MM中间威力弹的尺寸达成接近7.62*54R全威力步枪弹的弹道性能、射击精度和侵彻能力。”

The discussants looked at each other, and the onlookers felt a subtle change in the atmosphere.

Someone murmured: "Why did we go back after we pulled a lot..."

"..."

Comand clapped his hands: "Okay, whatever it is, the ammunition specification has been settled. Anyway—"

He turned around and pointed at the representatives of the integrated movement forces who were bewildered: "They can handle this gun."

**

Scientific research and industrial units worked together and quickly produced samples.

The representatives of the integrated movement were amazed by the new weapons, but Command just glanced at the new automatic rifle and general-purpose machine gun, then turned to ask the Cybernica sage who was about to introduce: "No wonder you took out samples so quickly. Have you paid homage to Kalashnikov?"

The sage replied confidently: "Sing in unison, praise Kalashnikov!"

Comand rolled his eyes, looked back at the whole row of 7.62*41MM caliber automatic rifles and general-purpose machine guns of different models on the table, and rolled his eyes again—the first two, at first glance, looked like AK and PKM...

Frost Xing picked up the automatic rifle in the sample gun and gestured a few times: "The barrel of the rifle is too long."

Since the special warfare unit is very dissatisfied with the gun length issue.So Cybernica took out an automatic rifle with a non-steel and non-wood body and a magazine mounted behind the grip from the sample gun on the table.

Frost Star seems to be very interested in this strange material and structure; Comand is also very interested in——

"You also paid homage to Duo Yingxian?"

Well, although at first glance this gun has a flat top receiver with long guide rails, Picatinny M-LOK, and the charging handle is also on the right side of the gun body; but on closer inspection, it is clearly the 95-1 heavy barrel version Changed the details and changed the shell...

The red-robed mechanical guy is confident: "What's wrong with the fried rice? In our hometown, Midi has used the AR15 configuration for 60 years, and Maozi has used the AK configuration for almost 80 years. The performance is stable! The fried rice is so stable! This is called 95 changed!"

Command gave the engine oil guy a middle finger: "Ah, this... okay. Are there any more?"

Cybernica pointed to the pile of large and small tubes at the far end of the long table: "80MM disposable rocket launcher, 40MM gun-mounted grenade launcher, automatic grenade launcher and sniper grenade launcher, 120MM heavy-duty rocket launcher, 12.7MM lightweight large Caliber machine guns. Everything."

Comand nodded, walked all the way to the end of the table, and picked up the Ursus-issue "Berdan" rifle; he looked at the opponents who had placed this thing on the table.Not far away, there are some infantrymen of the People's Federation under him doing the work, showing the excellent center of gravity design of the new gun to the representatives of the integration movement: this soldier without power armor is holding a 95G hip shot in one hand...

"Then I will mourn in advance for the Ursus army."

Today's fun:

The general group of friends actively responded to the call for a big discussion on light weapons yesterday, from the unpopular full-power high-speed rifle bullets on the eve of World War I to the interwar period when countries explored assault rifles, and then to the appearance of Maozi M43 and American 7.62NATO. The intermediate power bullets, and finally there are various experimental ammunitions that have been adjusted by various countries during the transition to small caliber.The concentration of its military powder is high enough to suffocate outsiders.

Finally, we preliminarily finalized the plan of the "7.62*41MM Universal Bullet". This is a kind of ammunition with a historical prototype. For details, you can go to the official account "Xiaogun" to check.Then a group of friends said (roughly): Maozi didn’t use this ammo back then because the cost of switching from the M43 ammunition was too high, and the 113th Division didn’t have a bunch of old ammunition, so if you don’t use it, just scrap it.

Me: Ah, this...

Group friends: Heh heh ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!Why is it so different from the universe and still need to use M43!

In the end, I simply set this batch of leftover ammunition to this 7.62X41.

Chapter 8 The Tundra Suppression of Bandits

This chapter is also called: Teach You How to Suppress Bandits.

"Saber" Fuming walked past a few bandits under him, and those ugly voices couldn't stop burrowing into his ears:

"You half bottle of vinegar... stupid thing, what did you do? I told you - I want to chop off my head!"

"I'm going to die! If you keep tossing around for a while, she will die... You should turn her head up! Otherwise, she won't be able to get off. Hold her hair and lift it up. Okay, hold her now."

The gangster who grabbed the padded jacket from the dying woman said to himself: "My hands are too soft, so she didn't die immediately. Okay, let go... still panting? Please tell me, what's going on?" That's right. I nearly chopped off the big bone in her neck..."

Another gangster spread his hands and spread out the padded jacket that was stripped from the peasant girl: "The left side is stained with blood...it's still sticky, bah, this dirty thing!"

——The girl's village really couldn't hand over the food that the bandits extorted, so the bandits went from door to door to pull out women, "shop around", and took away the most beautiful one.After finally getting tired of playing, they cut her with a saber: bullets are precious!

Now, they began to take off the cotton-padded jackets from the dead: in the northwestern tundra, this thing is very precious.And even though the Unification Movement is their sworn enemy, their stuff is all good stuff!

"It deserves it! Who told her to wear the clothes of the integration movement!" One of the gangsters who stripped his clothes didn't seem to have a completely necrotic conscience. They do it with the peasants who hang out with them!"

But the gangsters all knew that the village had only been in contact with the caravans and scouts of the integration movement a few times, and this padded jacket was just bought, and had nothing to do with the uniforms of soldiers or civil servants.

"Good morning, Kaparin." Fuming greeted the "chief of staff" of his gang of less than 100 people, "How do you feel?"

"Our team is good at chopping up civilians and captives, and is also very good at stripping dead people." Kaparin replied coldly.

Fuming rubbed his face swollen from alcoholism and said, "Look at how they fight. My people are all veterans, that's unambiguous."

"Then how did we end up in this situation?"
