The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

The Qi army actively stepped up preparations. Although the soldiers of the Qi army were somewhat exhausted, they still had a lot of fighting spirit to fight. In other words, they far surpassed the main force of the Yan Army in terms of fighting will.

"Place the machine gun over there, there may be a large-scale charge over there. Remember, cover me with thatch." A Qi army veteran commanded a machine gun squad to push the machine gun to the preset machine gun shelter. .

Qi Jun seized a large number of revolver machine guns discarded by the Yan army. This machine gun was an old-fashioned machine gun to Qin Jun. First of all, his rate of fire was limited by manpower and it was impossible to achieve automation. At the same time, manpower was the biggest shortcoming of the gun. The rate of fire of this machine gun is very limited. For example, manpower is uncontrollable. In the battlefield environment, the revolver gun can maintain a high shooting speed at the beginning. This is because people are still in a rational state at the beginning and can self-control the rotation speed of the barrel. Upgrade, people's self-control ability declines rapidly. This results in a rapid increase in the speed of the machine gun. And here is the fault with this machine gun. The rapid rotation of the machine gun makes this manual revolver machine gun unable to withstand the overheated barrel, and the heat of the barrel directly causes the detonation of the bullet. This is a flaw common to all guns.

When using this type of firearm, the Qin Army usually has two shooters, and one shooter needs to intentionally control the rate of fire on the side so that the machine gun can maintain continuous firepower.

The Yan Army did not have such a configuration. They usually ignored the hidden danger of the rate of fire of the machine gun in the early and mid-term defensive phase. Faced with the assault operations of the Alignment Army, the machine gunners often shake their gun handles frantically, desperately. The consequence of this is that some machine gun bunkers are inexplicably misfired. The reason is that their machine gun exploded. Not only did the Yan army suffer a certain amount of casualties, but even the blockade effect of the machine guns in the counter assault operations collapsed.

Now, this machine gun is in the hands of Qi Jun. Qi Jun naturally knew the great role of machine guns, especially when facing group charges. The huge lethality of the machine gun is amazing.

But Qi Jun didn't know that the machine gun still had such a safety hazard. After all, they had not found this problem in long-term use. But they know how to use machine guns. For example, in a relatively wide area, the Qi army usually intentionally hides the machine gun in a position with a wide viewing angle. This position has a good viewing angle. If possible, the machine gun will be placed on a high point that the assault must pass. In this position, the machine gun can be the largest Play its killing effect.

Qi Jun also learned from Yan Jun, no, it can be said that Qin Jun learned a particularly crucial role. That is the firepower crossover. When dealing with a few barbaric nomadic tribes, the Qin Army often placed some machine gun positions, or two artillery guns, or three groups of guns, on the traffic arteries. In one group, the machine guns protected each other at the same time. The machine guns in a group give full play to their firepower advantages and cross fired each other to form a terrible killing overlap area. In the firepower overlap area, the enemy will be shot at twice the density of machine guns. It was precisely this arrangement method used by Qin Jun that caused heavy losses to the barbaric nomads.

But now, this tactic is applied to Yan Jun. War is a place to learn from each other. Qin Jun has a good place, and Qi Jun still accepts it. For example, the firepower was placed on the commanding heights, and at the same time, the importance of the commanding heights was fully realized by Qi Jun. In the age of firearms, the commanding heights were given a special meaning. Sometimes, in order to control the commanding heights, a special battle can erupt on a large scale. For example, the most famous battle of the Three Emperors in history was launched around the commanding heights. Napoleon used the commanding heights as bait to use the central breakthrough tactics to achieve the goal of the campaign.

The rapid upgrade of military weapons has also led to rapid changes in military tactics. The biggest change in the Qi army is not to dig fortifications, extending from the surface to the ground, but they are studying a skirmish assault tactic. In fact, this skirmish assault tactic has been developed in the State of Zhao, but their combat opponents are Nomadic tribes, therefore, infantry tactics have not been effectively used.

The Qi army was on the offensive side. During the offensive, they found that only by spreading the soldiers in a certain area could they effectively avoid this mass killing. The Qi army had been slaughtered by machine guns. This is a profound lesson for the Qijun.

Now is not the time to start the fight, and the Qi army is cautiously arranging their defensive positions. Several important commanding heights and traffic arteries around were controlled by the Qi army, but the Yan army still had nothing to do.

The trenches at the commanding heights are being excavated, and the barbed wire fence has been initially erected. The cavalry and infantrymen have fully considered the cost of passing from here. The Qi army kept pushing machine guns and artillery up to the commanding heights, or placed them nearby on the path that the Yan army must pass. Everything is in a tight arrangement.

The Qi army’s caution is a manifestation of the combat quality of an army. If an offensive is launched rashly, it is not advantageous for the Qi army, even if it is launching an offensive. Nor can it completely annihilate the opponent's vital forces. Launching an offensive prematurely will only result in a rout war. In that case, the Qi army will be chased, and the army's rapid advance may not be a good thing. For example, their logistical supplies cannot be afforded.

At the same time, the army may encounter a rapid counterattack from the opponent's powerful force. At that time, the army could not stop even if it wanted to stop. And it is easy to be surrounded by opponents and annihilated with vital power.

When the Qi army stopped at this time, it can be said that it was very clever to slow down the army's rapid advance. Not only that, the Qi army can use effective fortifications to achieve the goal of completely annihilating the opponent's vital forces.

Great changes have taken place in combat during the Warring States Period. That is from the defeat operations in the Spring and Autumn Period to large-scale mobile encirclement operations. This huge change in the way of combat means a huge upgrade in the theory of war, from defeating the enemy in the past to the elimination of the opponent's viable military force. Such annihilation means directly attacking a country's entity. That was the case in the Changping War that year. The Qin army used a favorable retreat opportunity to completely surround the opponent's viable military force, and then caused a great loss of Zhao's national strength. Shocked the entire Kanto for a while.

This kind of encirclement war has obvious Eastern characteristics. Western warfare likes to use the tactics of defeat, but the East likes this kind of roundabout attack from the flanks, and the minister has a huge encirclement war effect. In comparison, the Eastern method of tactics can solve the problem more thoroughly. But a lot of risk needs to be paid, and this risk can influence a battle and even the outcome of a war.

When Qi Jun laid out the fortifications, Yan Guo didn't think about it. Qin Guo and Zhao Guo joined forces to defraud the remaining financial funds in Yan Guo's hands.

The Yan army purchases military weapons on a large scale in Qin, and Qin is also very interesting. Military orders are almost fully liberalized except for some heavy artillery and special combat aircraft. At the same time, Qin's bank arbitrarily borrowed money from Yan. Yan Guo received a large number of military loans from Qin State Bank, and these loans soon returned to Qin State’s military production, while Qin State’s factory owners flowed the funds back to the bank, because only with deposits can they make money. Large-scale borrowing, and then expand the scale of production, grab more orders.

The State of Yan was not a free purchase. The State of Qin wanted to send a special military observation and training team to help the State of Yan train a new type of Yan army capable of fighting. Because there was already a new army before Yan State. If a new type of army emerges, it may be difficult to highlight the special significance of the newly formed army.

In this respect, the people of Yan Guo would think more about it than the people of Qin, because most of the funding was the Yan Guo Tai Zi Dan, because the foundation of the Yan Guo New Army was established on the basis of the special armored mobile regiment just established by Yan Guo. Prince Dan not only purchased a full set of Qin armored combat vehicle battalions. At the same time, a number of tracked and wheeled motor vehicles were also purchased. These vehicles can tow some light artillery. Strong maneuverability. On this basis, Yan's armored mobile regiment was established.

Then this regiment needs to be equipped with artillery regiments and engineer battalions attached to the infantry regiment. It is then organized into a divisional unit. The brigade command was cancelled because it seemed too cumbersome.

Taking into account that the investor and the right to use the new army are in the hands of the prince, Qin Jun called it the prince army. The news of Qin Jun spread across the ears of Prince Dan. He screamed.

"Prince prince! Prince prince...". Prince Dan whispered to himself.

"Very good. I will call the Prince Army from now on. Although there is only one division now, there can be a second division and a third division in the future." Prince Dan exclaimed excitedly.

"According to Qin's organization, this can form an army." The pros and cons on the side echoed in a low voice.

"En, yes. Yes." Prince Dan said excitedly.

"According to the establishment of the State of Qin, it should be called the first division of the prince, the second division of the prince. the third division of the prince."

"Then set up the First Army of the Prince." Prince Dan said excitedly. In fact, Prince Dan considers that if he follows this development, then he will have new military power. And it is very likely to become the backbone of the Yan Kingdom. So Yan's military power actually fell into the hands of Prince Dan during the war. Thought of this. Prince Dan was naturally more excited.

In fact, the Qin State also had such considerations. Is such a bold support for a country’s prince to set up an army to arouse the sensitivity of the country’s king? Qin also had such considerations, but Qin quickly ignored the existence of this problem. Because the emergence of a large number of military orders has stimulated Qin's military production, and at the same time has brought great demand for the country's economic growth. These pulls are enough to allow Qin State to obtain considerable taxes and prosperity. For others, it is not Qin's consideration.
