Anti-Japanese War: I have unlimited assistance

Chapter 457: Gun name, Type !

Like Yoshio Shinozuka, Sugiyama Gen did not delve into the authenticity of the incident in which the Eighth Route Army's artillery and tank units were severely damaged.

He needs these military achievements.

The 14th Division was severely damaged and its commander, Lieutenant General Ioseki, was killed, which was enough to cause an uproar on the home front.

If it weren't for these military achievements, the group of old officers in the headquarters would not have forgiven him, and neither would Tianhuang.

……

At the same time, at the Southeast Shanxi headquarters, the leader also received Li Yunlong's telegram.

Compared to the disbelief and solemn expressions of the North China Front Command.

In stark contrast, the Eighth Route Army headquarters was filled with smiles and laughter.

"Great!"

The chief praised him generously, saying:
"Li Yunlong has set another record for the fastest enemy annihilation. In less than 14 hours, he annihilated the main force of the Japanese th Division."

"Yes." The Chief of Staff crossed his arms, smiling broadly. "But Li Yunlong is really lucky. The main force of the Japanese from the 14th Division planned to retreat into the city to engage in street fighting with the New st Regiment, but who knew that the civilians in the city had dug tunnels."

The division commander pushed up his glasses, a smile on his face: "Street fighting? We need alleys!"

"Ha ha……"

All the staff members at the headquarters burst into laughter, and the headquarters was filled with a happy atmosphere.

……

three days later.

Ping'an County in northwest Shanxi.

The new regiment headquarters.

Outside the north city gate, Boss Lin finally arrived after Li Yunlong and other people from the regiment were eagerly waiting.

After completing the statistics of yesterday's battle results and losses, Li Yunlong sent a telegram to Lin Feng.

Raymond Lam replied that he would come today and bring a new semi-automatic rifle.

"Haha, Boss Li, Boss Zhao, congratulations on your prosperity."

Walking closer, Lin Feng bowed to Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang.

"Happy together."

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang immediately responded by bowing.

Chief of Staff Zhang Dabiao and Li Yunlong's bodyguard Dong Dahai were there to accompany him.

"Brother Lin, are those semi-automatic rifles behind you?"

Then, Li Yunlong looked at a cart behind Lin Feng with an expectant tone.

This time, Boss Lin did not come empty-handed.

Instead, he brought a large mule and a cart with dozens of weapons and ammunition boxes on it.

Zhao Gang and Zhang Dabiao also looked at the cart.

"Yes."

Lin Feng nodded to a burly man, who immediately pried open a weapon box and took out a rifle that Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and the others had never seen before.

"Is this a semi-automatic rifle?" Li Yunlong took it and touched the new rifle with a look of joy in his eyes.

"The gun is called the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle." Lin Feng said, "In addition to the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle, there are also the Type 56 submachine gun and the Type 56 squad machine gun."

Immediately afterwards, under the burning eyes of Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and Zhang Dabiao.

Lin Feng took out a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle and a Type 56 squad machine gun from the weapons box.

"Brother Lin, why are there three types of guns?"

Li Yunlong's tone was doubtful, but his eyes became more and more burning.

"Not counting three guns, they're from the same series," Lin Feng introduced. "They're the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle, the Type 56 submachine gun, and the Type 56 light machine gun."

"Boss Lin, this gun is a bit short," Dong Dahai said. "If we fight the devils hand-to-hand, our troops will probably be at a disadvantage."

The Type 1117 semi-automatic rifle is 1.26 mm long, and even with a bayonet it is only meters long.

The Japanese's Type 1.7 rifle plus bayonet was meters long.

As the saying goes, an inch longer is an inch stronger. The Japanese Type 0.44 rifle is a full meters longer than the Type .

"Comrade Dong Dahai." Lin Feng smiled slightly: "Have you ever heard of this saying?"

Dong Dahai asked, "What?"

"From seven steps away, the gun is fast." Lin Feng smiled slightly and said, "Within seven steps, the gun is fast and accurate. Even if it's a hand-to-hand fight, can't we just shoot with the gun?"

Li Yunlong glanced at Dong Dahai unhappily and said, "Who would want to fight hand-to-hand with such powerful firepower? This guy doesn't understand the power of a semi-automatic rifle. Please forgive me, Brother Lin."

In fact, Li Yunlong didn't understand it either, but he had read the information about semi-automatic rifles that Boss Lin had sent him in advance.

"It doesn't matter." Lin Feng said, "How about we go directly to the shooting range?"

"Okay." Li Yunlong smiled broadly, and everyone headed straight for the New 1st Regiment's firing range. On the way to the range, Li Yunlong took out the bullets for the new series rifles and looked at them. He asked, "Brother Lin, are these bullets... the same as the ones we were equipped with before?"

"That's right." Lin Feng nodded. "The caliber of the new gun is the same as the previous one, both are 7.92×57mm pointed bullets, which are very powerful."

Although in another time and space, the rifles used in the domestically produced Type 7.62 series used 39×mm pointed bullets.

However, in order to reduce the logistical pressure of the new regiment, the system made some modifications to the Type 56 when it was released.

Otherwise, if the new regiment fully replaced its equipment with the 7.62 caliber Type 7.92 series, Li Yunlong would have wasted the more than million bullets.

Of course, since the caliber has been changed, there is not much difference except for the appearance.

Compared with the original Type 7.92 series of firearms, the barrel of the new Type 7.92 has become mm, and the magazine has been replaced to accommodate full-power bullets, but the feeding method is still gas-operated.

The sights were adjusted and replaced to suit the new range and accuracy requirements.

In addition, a rail for installing a scope is added, which can be used by snipers.

After using 7.92mm bullets, the recoil is larger than the original version, but it is within an acceptable range, and the corresponding power and range are greater.

It still has the advantages of light weight, high shooting accuracy, reliable mechanism operation, and is equipped with a folding bayonet and a Mitsubishi bayonet, allowing for hand-to-hand combat.

Although the German G43 semi-automatic rifle also uses the 7.92×57mm Mauser rifle bullet, it is too heavy, with a combat weight of 4.7 kilograms.

Moreover, the German army did not have the G43 submachine gun and G43 light machine gun.

"good."

After listening to Lin Feng’s introduction to the advantages of this series of guns, Li Yunlong nodded with satisfaction.

Soon, everyone arrived at the shooting range of the new regiment. Many new recruits were shooting there. When they saw the regiment commander and political commissar coming, they ran over to salute.

"Let's practice our shooting skills too. You guys go do whatever you need to do."

After sending the new recruits away, Li Yunlong picked up the Type 200 semi-automatic rifle and aimed at the target meters away.

at the same time.

Zhao Gang also held a Type 56 submachine gun and walked to Li Yunlong's side, aiming at the target next to the target Li Yunlong was aiming at.

Zhao Gang became interested: "Old Li, how about we have a shooting competition?"

"Let's compete." Li Yunlong laughed. "Old Li was a famous sharpshooter in the Red Fourth Front Army. I can't say I could hit a target at 400 meters, but at 200-300 meters, every shot hit the target. Just raise your hand and it will hit the target."

"Whether it's a mule or a horse, take it out for a walk."

Zhao Gang inserted the magazine into the belly of the gun, aimed at the target in the distance, turned on the safety and pulled the trigger.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang..."

The bullets were fired in a scattered manner, and bullet holes suddenly appeared on the target, distributed irregularly.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang..."

Looking at Li Yunlong, he controlled the gun very well, and almost every shot hit the target, and some even hit the nine and ten rings.

After the two men fired 10 shots, Li Yunlong immediately picked up the telescope and looked at the target.

"Old Zhao, your shooting skills are not that good either. How come several bullets missed the target?"

Li Yunlong was immediately happy.

Zhao Gang tried to save his dignity, "Nonsense! I'm firing in bursts, and you're firing single shots. How can the accuracy be the same?"

"Commissar Zhao, your gun can also fire single shots." Lin Feng reminded, "Here, turn on the single-shot mode."

"Let's compete again."

Zhao Gang's eyes lit up and he asked the guard to load 10 bullets into the magazine.

"You lose again if you do it again."

Li Yunlong confidently loaded 10 bullets and shot at the target.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang..."

After the shooting range staff replaced the target, the two men immediately raised their guns, aimed at the target and opened fire.

"Captain, 98 rings!"

"Political Commissar Zhao, 100 rings!"

The soldier in charge of reporting the target shouted loudly from a distance.

Li Yunlong's 8 bullets hit the 10-ring bull's eye, and 2 bullets hit the 9-ring circle.

However, every one of the 10 bullets Zhao Gang fired hit the bull's eye.

"Nice gun."

Zhao Gang sincerely sighed that their marksmanship was important in achieving this result, but it was also inseparable from the high quality of the gun itself.

"The accuracy is damn high."

Li Yunlong was not angry. Instead, he looked at the semi-automatic rifle in his hand with a look of joy.
