Compared to the cold weapons era, the rise of modern civilization and the sudden arrival of the hot weapons era, only the mode of war had changed greatly compared to the previous thousand years. The trinity of navy, army, and air force seemed to have completely entered a new era!!
The war in the Western Continent became a strong catalyst for the weapons revolution. In this world, it was always the pioneers who broke the ancient cage and the existing rules. The Germanic people would never allow the Germanic Empire to only have land and not the sea. The rapidly rising Germanic Empire launched this large-scale war against the old imperialist powers for resources, population, and markets. Coincidentally, the patrol troops were the same."For the future development opportunities, for many equality, for the entire nation and country, perhaps this ideal is too ambitious now, but you have to admit that in the changing and revolutionary Dragon Country, who can accurately grasp the future situation!!!
At this moment, Edward was looking at the two grenade launchers. This kind of heavy firepower weapon that could be operated by a single soldier had a unique advantage in small-scale battles. The shooting trajectory was curved, and it could even bypass defensive bunkers and hit the target directly. Most importantly, it was easy to carry and extremely flexible. This made Lin Zefan have the heart to equip it on a large scale. A few years ago, the war between the Fusang people and the hairy bear people used this small-caliber grenade launcher on a large scale. The effect was astonishing!
"Boss, aren't you going to try?"
Of course, Edward was also extremely curious about Lin Zefan's existence. He did not expect this young rich kid to have the same concept as him in terms of armament design, especially in terms of artillery. He was born with a wild imagination. For example, the military factory still had a few plans that had not been put into practice, such as the 60mm caliber mortar, the 88mm caliber mortar, and even the 120mm caliber mortar. These designs were due to time constraints. Due to the lack of steel, there were no results at the moment, so they could only produce 40mm grenade launchers.
"Let your assistant do it. Edward, promise me that you will train 300 qualified artillery soldiers within three months. If you can't train them, the number of cooks in the military factory will be reduced by half!!”
Edward's expression was instantly dumbfounded. Those Dragon Country dishes that he could not stop eating, if not for those Dragon Country chefs, those Dragon Country dishes that made him drool would really be in despair!!
"Good! Within three months, I will definitely train 300 qualified artillery soldiers!!”
Edward, who was eager to give it a try, did not waste any more time. The overall weight of this small-caliber grenade launcher was only about 2.5 kilograms, and its maximum firing rate could reach 20 rounds per minute. The weight of the shells it carried was about 0.8 kilograms, and its range was about 200 meters. From the data, it could be seen that such a light weapon was mainly used in small-scale battles. It was no wonder that the Japanese liked such a light weapon so much!
The bullets manufactured by the First Military Factory used a new technology to develop internal gunpowder. The effect was amazing, especially with the addition of some fragmented shrapnel. Once it exploded, it would cause a large killing radius!!
The current situation on the battlefield, after experiencing the initial chaos, the bandits of the Security Regiment had regained their Hanyang style. They fought back methodically. It seemed that the order of the royal power had some effect. However, it was unknown whether the strength of their resistance was because they were afraid or because they were only at this level. Compared to the recruits of the Second Company and Third Company, they were not even comparable…
In an era where the Dragon Country lacked firearms, even a bullet was precious. Although the Security Corps had rifles, did they have the opportunity to train with live ammunition on normal days??Only Beiyang's regular troops would have live ammunition training every month. The rest of the local troops wouldn't have the financial ability to supply bullets for training. The entire Security Regiment might not even fire a single shot throughout the year. If they used this as a basis to explain the current situation, everything would make sense…
Lin Zefan felt that the security guards were powerless to resist and shook his head. Other than sitting around and eating, it would be a fool's dream to expect them to fight against the foreign powers!
"A bunch of stupid pigs. I'll see who's unhappy with me, Lin Zefan, and my patrol unit before dawn tomorrow!!”
"Edward, open fire! Blast this bunch of trash to death!!”
Chen Cheng and Liu Bodong stared at Lin Zefan in surprise. The two of them looked at each other. The battalion commander's sudden rage was probably because the Security Corps had touched Lin Zefan's bottom line. The Security Corps had a great opportunity to develop and had a good hand, but they were completely crushed by Wang Quan and his gang... To put it bluntly, Lin Zefan's heart ached. He had invested a lot of resources into the Security Corps, but all they wanted was to sit around and wait for death.
Edward stared at Lin Zefan and seemed to understand why this young boss was holding back his energy in Germania. Almost the entire nation was rushing forward, and all kinds of rules and regulations were maintained. There were not so many useless people. Even the local security corps of a country could not withstand a single blow. If they were facing the army of a powerful country, or even the Beiyang Army, it would be forgivable to face them in such a state, but now... They were facing a group of patrol companies that had only been trained for less than a month. A group of new recruits had also been beaten to such a state.
