Chapter 209: All the Wise Men Gather
Because Ye Tian had set a very tight time limit, they all felt that time passed very quickly.
The short day passed quickly, but the training continued.
Under Ye Tian's strict requirements, after consuming tens of thousands of bullets, the nine girls learned to use the crooked handle light machine gun and barely became proficient in using it.
Of course, their shooting skills were very inaccurate.
Even if the position was very close to the enemy, they could only conduct rough shooting, and it was difficult to conduct accurate shooting.
In addition, because of different talents and different comprehension abilities, the progress of the nine girls was different.
For this reason, Ye Tian selected four main shooters, and the other five girls could only serve as deputy shooters.
In order to cause a large number of casualties to the Japanese and traitors as soon as possible, and to prevent the situation of close combat, which would cause casualties on his side, Ye Tian had already thought of a way.
When the battle began, Ye Tian was the main shooter, and he was the most important one.
The youngest Mu Ziqi was the deputy shooter for Ye Tian.
It was late at night, and torches were lit in the canyon.
They had all taken the Tianmu Shenlu, and it was not yet effective for 72 hours.
Therefore, although the training was very hard, they were still energetic and did not show any signs of fatigue.
The training subjects did not change, and they were still loading and shooting.
In order to ensure victory, and a big victory, Ye Tian did not let them go back to rest, but continued to practice.
In addition, Ye Tian also hunted a sika deer and stewed a large pot of it.
So, their food for the whole day was this kind of thing.
Of course, the main shooter and the deputy shooter were selected, and the battle would take place in a few hours, so at night, Ye Tian changed the training plan.
Under Ye Tian's special arrangement, the deputy shooter focused on loading training, while the main shooter focused on shooting training.
It must be said that after consuming a lot of bullets, it is indeed very effective for training novices, and it is an excellent way to achieve quick success.
Although, before this, the nine girls had never used a crooked handle light machine gun, or even seen one.
At two o'clock in the morning, feeling that it was almost time, Ye Tian took them back to the dragon cave.
Seeing that the girls were sweating profusely and their clothes were sticking to their bodies, Ye Tian was considerate and gave them half an hour to wash.
After waiting for them to take a shower and change clothes, Ye Tian carried out the next training subject, which was to maintain the crooked handle light machine gun.
To be honest, during World War II, this light machine gun was the worst one.
This light machine gun has a complex structure and is difficult to operate, especially in terms of feeding.
Not to mention the ammunition belt that can be loaded with a lot of bullets, even the 30-round feed plate cannot be used with this light machine gun.
It uses a hopper to feed ammunition, and can only load up to 30 rounds of ammunition at a time, and loading is particularly troublesome.
In theory, as long as the machine gun assistant continues to press bullets into the hopper, continuous shooting can be guaranteed, but this is only a theory.
The structure of the magazine is too complicated, and there are too many parts. Each part may have problems, which will lead to failure to shoot.
Therefore, it is still necessary to oil and maintain the crooked handle light machine gun.
In Ye Tian's heart, the Czech light machine gun used in large quantities by the National Army is his first choice.
In terms of range, rate of fire, accuracy, etc., the Czech light machine gun completely overwhelms the crooked handle light machine gun.
This has created a very strange phenomenon. If the devils do not use heavy weapons such as heavy artillery and fighter planes, the National Army can barely compete with the devils, and even beat them to the ground.
However, it is not without benefits to let Ji Huiya and others learn the crooked handle light machine gun.
The Czech light machine gun is not easy to learn, and the fast rate of fire and high accuracy are also for veterans.
Like the guerrillas of the Eighth Master, because of limited training and low shooting skills, the easy-to-use crooked handle is more in line with their needs.
Therefore, in the regular troops of China, basically no crooked handle is used, but the Czech type.
On the contrary, the Eighth Master Guerrilla Army likes this light machine gun very much.
Ye Tian has already planned that when the conditions are ripe, he will equip them with Czech light machine guns.
Even if their strength reaches a certain level, Ye Tian plans to equip them with a killer weapon.
This killer weapon is none other than the German MG-34 general-purpose machine gun.
The MG-34 machine gun was finalized in 1934 and comes from the famous Mauser Arsenal.
Like the famous Mauser rifle, the caliber of the bullet is also 7.92 mm.
In addition, during the Anti-Japanese War, the Zhongzheng rifle used in large quantities by the National Army was a replica of the Mauser rifle.
The MG-34 machine gun has too many advantages, and each one is outstanding:
It can be fed by a belt or a drum magazine that holds 75 rounds of bullets, and can be used in pairs;
The MG-34 machine gun has a very fast firing rate, reaching the peak of machine guns;
It is powerful and can easily break a tree as thick as a bowl, tear off a person's limbs, and even shoot the enemy into a sieve, which is not a big deal;
It is equipped with two barrels that can be quickly replaced to maintain continuous firepower;
It is light in weight, and normal adults, even women, can easily carry it and participate in assaults;
After installing a scope, it can even be used to shoot down airplanes because of its ultra-long range;
After installing a periscope, soldiers hiding in trenches can easily shoot the enemy;
In a short time, after installing the ammunition belt, a single soldier can operate it;
…
There are many advantages, but what Ye Tian appreciates most is that it can be used as a light machine gun, a heavy machine gun, and even an anti-aircraft machine gun.
In fact, the MG-34 general-purpose machine gun is not Ye Tian's favorite.
Ye Tian's favorite machine gun is an improved version of the MG-34, which is the more famous MG-42 general-purpose machine gun.
After the 1G-42 general-purpose machine gun came out and showed its horrifying power on the battlefield, it was called a battlefield cloth tearing machine.
It has a faster rate of fire, a longer range, stronger reliability, and more outstanding suppression ability on the battlefield!
In addition, what people talk about most is that it has a wider range of use environments.
It can function normally in the ice and snow at minus 40 degrees, the overgrown jungle, the hot desert, and even the narrow pile of rocks and rubble.
Therefore, which firearm in World War II is the most powerful weapon, MG-42 dares to be second, and no firearm dares to be first.
After instructing them on the maintenance of the Type 99 light machine guns, Ye Tian checked them and waved his hand.
So, carrying five such machine guns and 20,000 rounds of ammunition, ten people hurried to the designated battlefield.
What made Ye Tian happy was that before five o'clock, more than 50 heroes from Jinjiling arrived.
As the host, the eight masters of the Sanhe Town Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army had already arrived.
