Chapter 129 Chapter 129 Changes in Tactics

He threw the chalk into the groove under the blackboard, patted the chalk dust on his hands and said, "So, digging a trench is a reasonable way... What is a trench? A trench is a series of such tunnels."

While talking, he picked up a teaching aid that was carved out of wood in advance.There are also some small wooden figures carved inside, which look vivid.

While talking, Tang Mo walked off the podium with teaching aids.He put the teaching aids in front of the students and asked them to watch more carefully: "Soldiers hiding in this trench don't have to worry about most of their bodies being exposed to the enemy's guns, and the survival rate is higher."

Pointing to the heads of the soldiers exposed in the trenches, he said to all the officers who surrounded him: "The enemy can only measure the heads of our soldiers, and the hit rate will be lower. The trenches can also avoid more than [-]% of the enemy troops." Cannon fire is more effective than city walls."

"I'm not joking. To attack such a trench, the enemy may have to pay ten times the price to achieve the results." He looked at the dozens of commanders who were humbly listening, and seriously warned: "As long as you don't plan to leave immediately, you must dig trenches! This is the best way to save your lives!"

Everyone in this classroom can be said to be Tang Mo's or Fishero's confidants.They were selected here, which in itself represents a kind of glory.

Those who can sit in this classroom, Tang Mo's direct troops are all officers and soldiers who have made meritorious service. They all performed well in the last Battle of North Ridge. The rewards include gold coins and coming here opportunity to attend lectures.

No one will give up such an opportunity, because everyone knows that as long as they walk out of this classroom, they can stir up the wind and clouds in this world.

"As long as we are fully prepared, we only need to deploy 500 people in one position, and we can withstand the enemy's attack of 1 people!" At this time, Tang Mo was still there introducing his concept of defensive positions.

He wants to instill the relevant tactics into these officers as soon as possible, and then let them become outstanding figures ahead of this era.

So, he walked around the classroom while talking, and then walked back to the podium: "Gentlemen, the times are advancing! If you are not willing to follow the progress of the times, then you can only be regarded as stupid pigs in the future , was eliminated by history!"

"In the future, soldiers will be equipped with more powerful weapons, including grenades, rifles, and bayonets. In order to better arrange the line of defense, they should also be equipped with engineering shovels!" He wrote the words "engineering shovels" on the blackboard.

"Not only do we need engineer shovels, but we also need lunch boxes and spare socks..." He filled the entire blackboard with his beautiful handwriting.

In terms of defense, there are still many tactics that he has not taught, because the Maxim heavy machine gun has not yet come out, and the defense system built around the machine gun is not complete.

With such things as machine guns, attacking will become very difficult. Both sides will enter a state of positional warfare, and it will take a lot of courage to launch an attack first.

Just like the First World War, when attacking the enemy's solid defensive positions, it is necessary to mobilize heavy artillery to destroy all the enemy's defense systems with overwhelming firepower, and then use soldiers to attack the enemy's already incomplete line of defense.

But even so, this kind of attack is no different from suicide: even if most of the enemy's defensive positions are destroyed, they can still hold out for a long time.

During this time, the attacking soldiers were divided by the enemy's dense barbed wire and mines, and then easily slaughtered by machine guns.

After destroying these machine gun positions and completely capturing the entire position, these exhausted attacking soldiers will be pleasantly surprised to find that in front of them is another defensive position of the enemy, which is exactly the same as the line of defense they just broke through before.

Therefore, before tanks appeared, before large-scale mechanized troops and high-performance bombers became popular, the entire war could only be presented in the form of positional warfare.

Everyone has no good way, everyone can only use the most clumsy way to test each other.This is trench warfare, and this is war like a quagmire.

After a pause, he continued to say to these eager students: "We will continue to discuss the defense part in the next class, and now we will outline the offense. After the soldiers have more powerful rifles and grenades, their Attacks have also become sharper."

"Squads, that is, small units of squads and platoons, already have the capital to compete with the enemy's original battalion in terms of firepower." Tang Mo narrated seriously, and what he emphasized made these commanders Mose suddenly understood.

Indeed, their previous tactic was that the two sides took steps, kept the phalanx close to each other, and then used flintlock volleys to defeat the opponent.

Being able to win depends on precise tactical judgment on the one hand and strict military discipline on the other.The two sides salvoed each other for two rounds, and the side that collapsed first lost the battle.

But now, the phalanx is definitely an outdated tactic, because the firepower density of soldiers has obviously increased to several times the original.

If the two sides use the original tactics at this time, the scene will be very bloody, and the two troops will almost face their own disaster in an instant.

The two sides fought with K2 lever rifles at a distance of tens of meters, and few of them survived a few rounds of volleys.

It only takes a few seconds for two phalanxes approaching each other to kill each other because their weapons are too good.

If more than half of the soldiers are lost in an instant, most of the troops will collapse immediately and lose their combat capabilities.Such a loss, regardless of whether the war is won or lost, is impossible for both sides to accept.

Soldiers who are well trained on weekdays must not be so easily wasted on the disorderly battlefield where they are lined up and shot.So taking the initiative to change is the common cognition of almost everyone.

Just imagine, if the Northridge troops faced the enemy's attacking phalanx, and it was a phalanx using needle guns or lever rifles, would they have to use the same tactics to meet them?
Obviously not, as Tang Mo introduced, this defensive tactic of digging trenches to hide oneself so as to destroy the opponent more safely and conveniently is obviously a more suitable choice.

That kind of tactics of one life for another should be swept into the dustbin of history.The tactics of forming a human wall in order to increase the hit probability must also be eliminated.

Tang Mo simply outlined some terrain markers on the empty space on the blackboard, and then simply drew a few arrows: "In this case, spreading the attack is more reasonable than marching in parallel, and it can also reduce casualties."

While talking, he wrote the unit of the squad behind those arrows, marking 12 people: "Experiments have shown that using the squad as a unit, covering each other and advancing alternately, is more in line with the combat environment... This will require everyone to fight in the future. You can experience and explore by yourself, and there are no hard and fast rules here.”

After tapping the blackboard twice, Tang Mo warned again: "I hope all students take good notes! These theories are very important, do you understand?"

Hearing what he said, all the officers lowered their heads and began to record the content of this lesson.

Many of them have already studied Tang Mo's artillery tutorial, and some of them have learned the basic drill movements of the troops.

And these veterans who had learned the previous courses realized at this time that the fighting and crawling taught them by Tang Mo were actually prepared for the current tactics.

In the face of the bullets fired by the enemy's densely packed lever rifles, it is obviously a wiser choice to lie on the ground than to stand there.

Tang Mo walked back to the desk, clapped his hands, and began to sort out his lesson plans: "Now, everyone knows why our Datang Group's security forces are equipped with these functional equipment, right?"

"Understood." All the students nodded.

Tang Mo picked up the book and held the teaching aids in his hand, "After you go back, you must try your best to ensure that your troops have the ability to build fortifications in the field. At the same time, I also hope that you will purchase the supporting equipment from our Datang Group."

"Okay, we'll stop here for this class, get out of class is over! Goodbye, classmates!" Tang Mo nodded slightly, and walked out of the classroom with a bunch of odds and ends.

"Goodbye, teacher!" All the students stood up and saluted Tang Mo.They watched Tang Mo walk out of the classroom with adoring eyes.

"Who would have thought that there is a rifle that can fire continuously..." When Tang Mo walked out of the classroom, an officer from North Ridge said in amazement.

"Let's not talk about rifles. If we don't know it and are suddenly attacked by troops equipped with revolvers, don't we lose too?" Another officer was full of emotion.

Whispers were whispered, and some people gathered to talk about the lever rifle that might very well be built in the future.

Even if this thing has the defect of short range, everyone is still more interested in it.Because compared to the paper data, it is obvious that the lever rifle is more attractive than the KAR98K.

"Each unit needs to bring at least three more carriages..." Redman complained to Loew beside him, "The rate of consumption of ammunition must be faster than before."

"Three carriages? I don't think it would be enough to bring five more carriages." Lu Fu said with a bit of pain: "People eat horse chews, and counting the consumption of many carriages and people, five...is just a lot! "

The other officers from Datang Security Force packed up their things without saying a word, because there are other students who will use this classroom later.

They all knew that, no matter what, the situation of the next war would definitely change.They just don't know when the next war will come.
