Film and Television Beacon Fire: I Have an Equipment Column

Chapter 257 Debate

"Ruger P08 pistol, German standard pistol, 9mm bullet, semi-automatic shooting, can be equipped with drum magazine and butt.

It comes with a complete set of accessories, 200 pieces in total, and 100,000 rounds of ammunition. Please bid. "

After briefly introducing the pistol in his hand, Captain Hoffman allowed everyone in the banquet hall to start bidding.

"Ten thousand dollars."

"Twenty thousand."

"Twenty-five thousand."

Suddenly, the entire banquet hall became lively.

Not long after, this batch of pistols was auctioned off by representatives of the Hunan Army for $45,000.

Captain Hoffman announced with a smile that the other party had won the auction.

You must know that the purchase price of this batch of pistols with bullets was only a little over 8,000 US dollars. This change of hands would be several times the profit. How could he be unhappy?

What's more, these pistols are just appetizers, and the real good stuff is behind them.

Profits are also higher.

With a happy mood, Captain Hoffman began to organize the next auction item.

"MP18 submachine gun, I don't need to introduce it too much. There are two hundred of them, with two hundred thousand rounds of ammunition. Please bid."

"Fifty thousand dollars."

Before Hoffman could finish his words, someone spoke up.

"Seventy thousand."

"Eighty thousand."

Compared to the pistol just now, the bidding for the MP18 submachine gun this time was obviously much more intense.

Lu Feng also carefully looked at this submachine gun, which the Chinese called "flower machine".

To put it bluntly, this gun is definitely not good-looking.

The reason why it makes people obsessed with it is, in the final analysis, because China is extremely short of automatic weapons at this time.

Under normal circumstances, only those directly under the guard level in the national army can use such "flower traps".

Because of this, such a gun is bound to the words "strong" and "elite".

A lot of points for this gun.

Seeing that the banquet hall became noisy because of this batch of submachine guns, Zhang Wenbai took advantage of the situation and said to Lu Feng:

"I heard from Zhongshu that it was the Suzhou spy agency that you discovered not long ago?"

"If you must say so, that's fine."

Lu Feng nodded.

"You are not very modest."

Zhang Wenbai smiled, and then asked:

"It was also your idea to use mortars?"

Lu Feng nodded and said:

"Yes."

Zhang Wenbai asked with great interest:

"According to Zhongshu, you asked him to bring the mortar to the battle from the beginning. Did you have a premeditated plan?"

"You could say that."

"Can you tell me the reason? I don't understand. You clearly have the elite strength of two companies in your hands, which is almost ten times the advantage of the enemy, but you still seem to be the same."

Zhang Wenbai thought about it for a while and then said:

"Still not worried?"

Facing Zhang Wenbai's question, Lu Feng thought for a while.

After sorting out his thoughts, Lu Feng said:

"Mr. Zhang, in my opinion, the strength of both sides in the battle and the number of people are not the only criteria.

From ancient times to the present, there are countless examples of using less to defeat many, and using weak to defeat strong.

Such as the Battle of Julu, the Battle of Guandu, the Battle of Chibi, etc.

So, in these examples, is it really that the winning side is weaker than the losing side?

I'm afraid not? " Lu Feng's words made several people, including Zhang Wenbai, look thoughtful.

Zhang Wenbai nodded and said:

"You go on."

"Mr. Zhang, I once heard a saying: The weak never defeats the strong in this world.

The so-called victory of the weak against the strong is nothing more than the weak party finding a side that is stronger than the other party, and then using it to win the battle. "

"That's an interesting statement. Can you elaborate on it?"

Lu Feng pointed to the submachine gun next to Captain Hoffman and said:

"Mr. Zhang, to give you a simple analogy, I give you a thousand people, but they only have swords in their hands, and I only have a hundred people here, but everyone holds a submachine gun.

What will happen if you and I fight? "

"Of course I'm no match for you."

"Can Mr. Zhang say that I defeated the strong with the weak?"

"Of course not."

Lu Feng nodded and said:

"That's it. From ancient times to the present, the number of people has only been one of the criteria for measuring strength, but it is not the only one.

Mr. Zhang, you should also know very well how big the gap is between a group of rabble and a group of regular soldiers.

And how big is the difference between an ordinary soldier and an elite soldier. "

Zhang Wenbai and the people sitting around nodded knowingly.

Lu Feng gestured to the submachine guns and continued:

“And with the emergence of firearms, especially automatic firearms, as well as artillery, armored vehicles, and tanks, the gap between ordinary people and regular troops has been infinitely magnified.

Therefore, on the current battlefield, pure number of people can no longer be used as a basis for strength. More emphasis is placed on the advancement of equipment, as well as personnel training and coordination capabilities.

Going back to the original question, why am I still not reassured even though I have ten times the enemy's strength?

Because I know that those Japanese spies are carefully selected elites from the Japanese army. They are far superior to our soldiers in terms of military quality and weapons and equipment. "

Lu Feng's words made the faces of the people around Zhang Wenbai look a little ugly.

But Lu Feng continued without caring:

"Don't think I am exaggerating. Mr. Tan should be aware of this."

Tan Zhongshu nodded helplessly and said:

"Indeed, that group of spies were still able to quickly and effectively counterattack after we wiped out nearly half of their effective forces at the beginning.

Even the firepower of more than a dozen of them can suppress us in turn. "

Zhang Wenbai also looked thoughtful. It was after reading Tan Zhongshu's post-war summary report that he specially summoned Tan Zhongshu to his side.

After all, Tan Zhongshu is the only Central Army officer who has fought against the Japanese army on the battlefield in the past three to five years.

Although the scale of this battle was not large, it was still very useful for Zhang Wenbai to figure out the current strength of the Japanese army.

"Mr. Zhang, let's make an assumption. If what was on the dock at that time was not a cargo pile, but some solid reinforced concrete fortifications, and the small steamer was replaced by a gunboat.

Even if I have two mortars in my hand, do you think I can knock it down with the three hundred or so men in my hand? "

Lu Feng's assumption made Zhang Wenbai's face turn extremely ugly.

"you"

"director."

Just as Zhang Wenbai was about to say something, the person next to him gestured.

Zhang Wenbai looked at Captain Hoffman. It turned out that the batch of submachine guns had been sold. Captain Hoffman began to introduce the next auction item.

"Zundap KS600 motorcycles are all sidecar versions. There are twelve of them in total. Please bid."

"Twenty thousand dollars."

Zhang Wenbai directly asked the price.

The entire banquet hall was silent.
