My girlfriend is from 1949

"Isn't this... not a good idea?"

Commander Jiang frowned slightly, a conflicted look on his face.

He seemed to want to give it a try after hearing the suggestion, but looked troubled as if he couldn't.

Upon seeing this, Chen Huai'an smiled knowingly.

Anti-aircraft guns are extremely powerful; in addition to their anti-aircraft capabilities, they can also fire at tanks in direct fire.

If you hit someone directly, it won't just leave bruises everywhere, it'll be all over the place, it's too brutal.

That's why there's the saying that firing anti-aircraft guns horizontally should be subject to a military court.

Seeing the troubled look on Commander Jiang's face, he whispered words of comfort: "There's no need to feel sorry for the enemy; as long as you can kill them, that's enough!"

The voice was seductive, yet tinged with coldness.

The key is to patiently guide and break down the "good old boy" mentality.

No matter what method you use, as long as you can kill the enemy, it's a good method.

For a modern person, there is no psychological burden whatsoever.

Moreover, with changing trends, modern people nowadays admire Jia Xu, the strategist of the Three Kingdoms period, even more!

No matter how ruthless the scheme, as long as it kills the enemy, it's acceptable.

Many promising young people have even surpassed Jia Xu in their ability to devise treacherous schemes.

He's a modern-day living Yama!

When Chen Huai'an purchased the anti-aircraft guns, he never intended to use them to shoot down airplanes.

Because for low-altitude fighter jets, there is the QW-1 portable air defense missile.

The main purpose of anti-aircraft guns is to attack infantry and bunkers.

Like the modern JZ-171 heavy machine gun, it uses 12.7 mm bullets.

Even if there's a wall in front of you, it can be destroyed under continuous fire; a car can be blown up in minutes.

If replaced with the larger caliber Type 74 37mm anti-aircraft gun, the direct firing range against ground targets is approximately 940 meters, within which precise aiming and firing can be carried out.

Its dual-barrel parallel design enables it to fire at a rate of 440-480 rounds per minute, creating a dense barrage to suppress bunker firing ports or exposed firing positions.

The Type 74 37mm bullet can even hit tanks, let alone people.

Commander Jiang frowned deeply. As a professional soldier, he was very familiar with anti-aircraft guns.

In particular, after taking charge of air safety in Shanghai and becoming the head of the flight unit, he specifically checked his qualifications.

That's why I shook my head, feeling it wouldn't work.

He pondered for a moment and said, "This anti-aircraft gun is equipped with radar and a fire control system, and the ammunition is expensive."

If they are deployed to the front lines, they are easily exposed and countered, and their cost-effectiveness is not as good as dedicated anti-tank guns.

Moreover, the anti-aircraft gun carriage is too high, which makes it difficult to conceal when firing horizontally and also makes it difficult to maneuver.

... "

Commander Jiang, being a professional, immediately pointed out several reasons why anti-aircraft guns were unsuitable for direct fire.

However, the issue of the excessive brutality of the attacks on soldiers was not mentioned at all.

Chen Huai'an asked doubtfully, "Don't you think beating someone is too brutal and might lead to a military court-martial?"

Commander Jiang paused, then shook his head and said, "As long as we can kill the enemy, why would we need to go to a military court?"

They looked completely at ease, showing no remorse whatsoever for their brutality.

On the contrary, I feel that as long as we can kill the enemy, any method is acceptable!

The reason why anti-aircraft guns are considered unsuitable for direct fire is not out of humanitarian considerations, but because they are considered impractical!

Of course, impracticality does not mean it is useless.

Commander Jiang explained with a smile, "Isn't it just anti-aircraft guns firing horizontally? Other countries have used it before."

In fact, the German and Soviet armies did this in Afghanistan during World War II, and the US military did it in Vietnam. There is no international convention that prohibits anti-aircraft artillery from firing at infantry.

Only those who violate the laws of war by attacking civilians or using prohibited weapons will be held accountable.

The idea that anti-aircraft guns could be fired at the International Court of Justice is just a joke.

Even during the counterattack against Vietnam, our army struggled to move anti-aircraft guns up the mountain to bombard the enemy's positions.

In the spring of 1979, on the front lines in southern Xinjiang, the offensive of the 371st Regiment of the People's Liberation Army was firmly pinned down by dense artillery fire in front of Hill 316, which was held by the Vietnamese army.

The regimental commander glanced anxiously at his watch, but his own artillery had not yet arrived due to the difficult mountain roads.

But time was of the essence for the final assault, and in this suffocating stalemate, an unbelievable scene unfolded.

On Hill 316, the Vietnamese army's arrogant fortifications and hidden strongholds suddenly exploded one after another, with precise and devastating blows.

The guns were fired from a small forward hill that had just been captured by the infantry, by soldiers of the 3rd Company of the 371st Regiment!

The defenses of Hill 316 collapsed rapidly, allowing our army to successfully capture this strategic location at a relatively low cost.

He was later awarded a first-class merit and the honorary title of "combat hero" for his outstanding contributions.

Therefore, Commander Chiang had no psychological burden regarding the direct firing of anti-aircraft guns; he simply felt that they were not usually needed.

If it really comes down to a tough challenge, we will definitely move it up without hesitation!

Commander Chiang was overjoyed and summoned his soldiers, who took away some of the HQ-2 air defense missiles and some of the QW-1 portable missiles.

It wasn't that he didn't want to take more, but rather that the allocation of this equipment wasn't something a division commander like him could decide.

Even a response from the central government is needed to decide how to allocate the funds.

His authority was limited to arguing his case and trying to get as much as possible.

Although they argued for a long time and agreed to split the money in half, that was just the figure on the report.

If you can actually get one-third of it, that would be pretty good.

However, given the situation in Shanghai and the need to safeguard the 306th Bureau.

Dividing it into one-third should be a safe bet.

As for the rest, it depends on how Beiping and other troops allocate them.

The two people who were taken away were also granted special permission by calling Secretary Deng.

According to historical records and intelligence reports, the Kuomintang reactionaries will bomb Shanghai tomorrow.

If we can't familiarize ourselves with the new weapons and equipment tonight, how will we protect the lives and property of the people when enemy planes attack tomorrow?

If the enemy bombing cannot be repelled, Shanghai's power infrastructure will also collapse.

The entire city will regress to the era of using candles.

If factories shut down, society will descend into chaos!

To be realistic, in order to ensure the safety of Chen Huai'an and Lin Wan and to prevent them from being injured in the air raid, it would not be unreasonable to leave all these air defense weapons in Shanghai!

Therefore, the higher-ups gave special permission to take him back for training, so that he could master how to use it as soon as possible.

However, this point has also been considered in modern society.

Therefore, a detailed instruction manual is provided, and you can operate it by simply following the instructions.

It's just that I'm not familiar with the operation at first.

There are absolutely no problems using it.

Commander Chiang Kai-shek also loved the Type 56 submachine gun, especially after emptying a magazine. He felt he had never used a submachine gun with such superior performance!

Compared to today's internationally manufactured products, its performance is absolutely superior!

Although it is a copy of the AK47, after decades of detailed optimization, its performance is more stable than the original version!

Commander Chiang originally wanted to take some with him, but unfortunately, this time it didn't involve air defense, so he couldn't take them even if he wanted to. He could only wait for the central government to allocate them.

However, given the importance of the air force, they will be able to receive these new guns very soon!
