Chapter 490 CQB and Nonsense
As a veteran who has experienced hundreds of battles, the old comrade naturally knows that the tactics are different in various environments. As an encounter battle, Gao Zhendong's style of fighting is also a common one.
However, it is rare that Gao Zhendong seriously proposed "absolute speed and relative accuracy" as a tactic or training goal, and at least promoted and trained it within his own troops.
"It sounds like you've led troops into battle before?" He didn't know Gao Zhendong.
Gao Zhendong nodded: "Yes, I went abroad to fight in Northeast China and withdrew in 53."
A comrade from the nearby army whispered a few words in the old comrade's ear. Except for this old comrade and several comrades who came with him, the others were basically familiar with Gao Zhendong, and had met him at least more than once.
After hearing what others said, the old comrade smiled knowingly: "No wonder, a combat hero, hahahaha, are you joining the army now?"
"Well, after I came back, I was admitted to university, studied for a few years, and now I'm doing technical work."
"Well, great!" All the old comrades in the army disliked Gao Zhendong's experience after knowing it. In particular, everyone praised him for being able to fully integrate his combat experience in the army into equipment research.
After praising Gao Zhendong a few times, the leader looked at the target paper carefully again and nodded again: "Well, you hit well! You practice well too! It can be seen that even if you leave the army, you still have the skills you need."
Gao Zhendong smiled and said, "We have basic militia in the factory, so we have the conditions for training."
The old comrade quite agreed with Gao Zhendong's idea, but he also knew that Gao Zhendong's shooting results did not count. The main reason was that this comrade's marksmanship and combat skills were first-class and beyond the standard. What worked well in his hands might not work well in the hands of ordinary soldiers.
It's like in the hands of some heroes, one or two bullets are enough to kill an enemy on average, but if you use this data to apply to ordinary soldiers, then there will be big problems.
He pointed to a soldier who came with him and said with a smile: "Did you understand what Chief Engineer Gao said just now? If you understand, give it a try."
This comrade took on the task. It was obvious that he was also an elite soldier in the army. After being a little uncomfortable at the beginning, he got into the state quickly. Although his movements could not be compared with Gao Zhendong's skillful movements, he still performed quite well.
“Da da da…da da da…da da da…”
After a burst of gunfire, comrades in the army gathered around to see the result.
The effect is good. Although it cannot achieve the effect of Gao Zhendong who basically guarantees that every three-shot burst will hit the target, most of the time there is no problem with one or two shots.
The shooting comrades praised the gun highly: "This gun is good, it feels smooth, the jump is light, it is very comfortable to operate, and the rear sight is very special. You can shoot at close range with the large rear sight."
He didn't know that the thing was actually a protective wing. Anyway, he thought that thing was like a large rear sight when fighting at close range.
Looking at the result, the old comrade nodded and said, "Well, it's quite interesting and valuable. At least as a close combat concept, it can be practiced and tried out in some special forces."
Gao Zhendong was also very happy. Close-range combat is not the norm in battle, but it is one of the most luck-dependent combat styles. The shortened distance eliminates the gap in skills and tactics, and sometimes it all depends on who has better luck.
Not to mention promoting it throughout the entire army, if some troops that are often in this kind of combat environment can receive targeted training, I think it will be of great help.
He tried his best to develop disposable rocket launchers and gun-mounted grenades in order to weaken the geographical advantage that Zangsan had maintained for many years. If the soldiers participating in the war could have some training in this area, the chance of accidents could be further reduced.
He thought for a moment and added, "Commander, I think that besides the troops, the comrades in charge of local security and those who often come into close contact with the enemy are the ones who need this the most. In addition, this style of fighting requires bullets. The reason I dare to use this method on the battlefield is that our logistics and ammunition supply are much better than before, and we have more automatic weapons."
Any tactics must be linked to conditions. In the most difficult times, when there are only a few bullets in a battle and the conditions are hand-pulled bolts, it is naturally impossible to fight in this way.
At that time, guns were quite abundant, and although there were no defeated troops, there were still many enemy spies, bandits, and bad elements, and they often had guns in their hands. Comrades on the front line of public security often had to face the enemy's guns, and they had to engage in the most close-range combat such as street fighting, searching, and breaking into houses.
Border guards are definitely on the list of those who often come into close contact with the enemy.
The old comrade listened to Gao Zhendong's words and nodded: "Well, you are right, but we don't have to worry about the bullets. Thanks to the hard work of technical workers like you, we don't have to worry about this now."
Well, I know. I also know that there are not only a lot of bullets, but also a lot of grenades. "Bullets raining down" is an objective description rather than an exaggeration.
The old comrade looked at Gao Zhendong and asked with interest: "Are you interested in leading soldiers in the army? Train some soldiers for us and see how they perform."
Everyone was stunned by the old comrade's wild ideas, including Gao Zhendong himself.
"Commander, I just have more ideas. If we really want to talk about combat techniques and leading troops, it's better to go with the comrades in the army. They are much better than me. And my work is quite stressful right now..."
Gao Zhendong would never dare to accept this offer, not to mention the huge amount of work he had on hand. Even if he put all his work aside to deal with this matter, the 60 days since the system was upgraded might not be enough.
The old comrade thought about it and laughed at his own unconventional idea. With his style and achievements in the army, he would be a backbone of the industry and shoulder heavy responsibilities if he returned to the local area. It is impossible for him to be transferred just like that. If nothing else, just look at the attitude of the teachers and students of Beijing University of Technology towards him today and you will know that he probably has a heavy burden on his shoulders.
He thought about it and settled for the next best thing: "Then how about this, you organize your ideas and write something for me, and I'll find someone to implement it."
Well, that's fine. I've been eager to find the price cuts. As a veteran military fan + real-life CS enthusiast in my previous life, I still have some CQB stuff.
Gao Zhendong stood at attention with his legs together: "Yes!"
Seeing his energetic appearance, the old comrade liked him from the bottom of his heart: "Well, then go ahead and get busy. I'll be waiting for your materials."
Gao Zhendong turned around and continued to participate in Professor Liu and their work. When the rifle-mounted grenade was tested, the comrades in the army were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling when they heard the "boom...boom..." sound of the firing and the sight of the rifle-mounted grenade exploding on the target.
It was the first time for the old comrade to see a grenade hanging from a gun, and he was extremely happy.
"This thing is great. It can hit far and accurately, and its power is comparable to that of a grenade! It's like a cannon in the hands of infantrymen. It also carries a large amount of ammunition. Great, great. If we had this thing back then..."
He shook his head with emotion and said nothing more, his eyes shining with regret and happiness.
When we were fighting the Japanese back then, thanks to the efforts of military workers, we had some rifle grenades. The captured hand grenades could have been used in grenade launchers, so our comrades modified and imitated them and used them as rifle grenades. This rifle grenade required a launching tube to be hung in front of the muzzle of the gun.
However, the number was really small, the use was troublesome, and the performance was much inferior to the gun-mounted grenades at that time, so it failed to play a major role.
A military representative who has been stationed at Beijing University of Technology for a long time said, "Commander, this thing was also made by Chief Engineer Gao and his comrades from Beijing University of Technology."
The old comrade was surprised when he heard this: "Ah? This comrade is a versatile person. It seems that my idea just now was really wrong. I almost did something bad. Hahaha. Although he has left the army, he is still thinking about him in his heart. Good comrade! Good comrade!"
They were observing and communicating here. A comrade brought by the old comrade seemed to have discovered something. After telling his comrades, he hurried away.
He just talked with a comrade around the test site and then walked back.
He whispered a few words in the old comrade's ear, and the old comrade looked startled.
"What? It seems his security level is not low?"
"Well, yes, the comrades over there are here just for this matter."
"Which unit are you from?"
"Appointed by the Defense Work Committee."
The old comrade looked at Gao Zhendong who was busy in the field and muttered to himself: "It seems that he has more than just some guns."
Then he came to his senses again: "Then why is he wandering around on the shooting range? What a joke! Go and inform the comrades at Beijing University of Technology that today's test is over. First summarize the results of the tests that have been completed today and continue tomorrow."
The comrades around him looked embarrassed: "Commander, this is not good, right? Aren't you also hanging around the shooting range?"
The old comrade was speechless for a moment: "This...you are still talking nonsense, right? Can we be the same?"
"No, I think you are more important." The comrade curled his lips.
The old comrade glared at him fiercely and said, "Okay, okay, tell them to disperse. I'll leave too. Is that ok?"
"okay!"
After receiving the request from the old comrades, Professor Liu and his colleagues did as they were told. There were many things to do in the firearms test, and it naturally could not be completed in one day, so there was nothing wrong with this arrangement.
Seeing that today's experiment was over, Gao Zhendong said goodbye to his old comrades and left Beijing University of Technology.
The Defense Work Committee also quickly received information about the test that day.
The leader of the Defense Work Committee didn't say anything to him about the test. He had a relatively good grasp of the entire process and current status of this squad's family of guns and gun-mounted grenades. In the general direction, everything was fine and there was nothing to worry about.
