Warlord: Red Alert Base, I challenge the whole world alone

Chapter 19: The shock that brought Jiang Jingrui

This camp does not belong to the First Division of the Red Alert Corps, but to the newly formed Second Infantry Division. Currently, many troops of the Second Division are gathered here.

Once the soldiers recruited from the Red Alert base are organized, they will gather in this large camp, complete their reorganization here, and then set off to the front line.

Now that Jiang Jingrui is here, let’s take him to see the camp.

As for the equipment, there is nothing to hide, and there are no high-tech weapons. Everything can be displayed openly.

He also used this method to tell Jiang Jingrui that his cooperation with the Saibei Army was definitely not climbing above his station, but that he had absolute strength and would not be in trouble if he left the Saibei Army.

Only by demonstrating sufficient strength can we win enough respect and take the initiative in subsequent cooperation, rather than passively accepting cooperation.

There is a big difference between active cooperation and passive cooperation.

There are already tens of thousands of soldiers stationed in the camp, and in a few days the Second Division will be fully staffed.

So the camp is now bustling with activity, and several training grounds are full of soldiers undergoing restorative training.

The first training ground they came to was the infantry company's training ground.

The dense gunfire could be heard from far away.

When Jiang Hua brought Jiang Jingrui and his party to the training ground, Jiang Tianming, who was from the Second Infantry Division.

He was originally the chief of staff of the 1st Infantry Division. Due to his outstanding abilities and the fact that Jiang Hua lacked capable senior officers, he was promoted to the commander of the 2nd Infantry Division.

The former commander of the first regiment, Zhao Qi, took over his position and became the chief of staff of the First Infantry Division.

"commander!"

Jiang Tianming came to Jiang Hua, saluted respectfully, and then looked at Jiang Jingrui and his group.

"Commander Jiang, I'll take them on a tour of the camp. As the host, you can act as a guide for our guests."

"Yes, Commander!"

After saying that, Jiang Tianming made a gesture of invitation, indicating that everyone should follow him.

Jiang Jingrui nodded and followed.

“This is our No. 1 training ground, a large shooting range dedicated to shooting practice.

The 4rd Battalion of the 3th Regiment is currently undergoing training here."

As a shooting range, there are still many training subjects.

There are seven training subjects in total.

So it is divided into five shooting ranges.

They are 100 meters in prone position and relying on circular targets.

200-meter prone, kneeling and standing shooting.

Medium and long range fixed target shooting.

Sport target shooting and combat shooting subjects.

There are also three training subjects for machine gunners.

Soldiers from the four companies of the third battalion of the 4th regiment are lining up here to take turns training.

The group arrived at the first training target, which is also the 100-meter target shooting training site.

“Bang…Bang…Bang…”

"Ding!"

Gunshots continued to ring out, and from time to time a crisp clinking sound could be heard.

This is the unique sound of the M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle.

When this sound occurs, it means that the bullets have been used up and the magazine needs to be changed.

This training scene was very ordinary, but Jiang Jingrui noticed something different.

"Hey, how come your rifles can fire continuously without having to pull the bolt after each shot?"

Jiang Jingrui looked at a row of soldiers lying on the ground training with surprise. They kept pulling the trigger without pulling the bolt at all.

Jiang Hua looked at him in surprise. Could it be that the young marshal of the Saibei Army had never even heard of a semi-automatic rifle?

This is not because Jiang Jingrui is ignorant, but because this thing is not well-known internationally.

Although the United States has already started the development of the M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle, it is still in the testing ground and will not be put into service for several years.

As for semi-automatic rifles from other countries, there is no sign of them yet, and the mainstream rifles are still this bolt-action, full-power, single-shot rifle.

Obviously Jiang Hua underestimated the power of semi-automatic rifles in this era.

"This is the first semi-automatic rifle we were equipped with. Its special design saves the step of pulling the bolt, thus achieving continuous firing."

"Can I try?"

Jiang Jingrui's eyes were immediately caught by the Garand semi-automatic rifle.

Jiang Jingrui then lay down directly on the shooting position. After being corrected by an old soldier, gunshots were soon heard.

After he had finished firing an eight-round magazine, he reluctantly returned the gun to the veteran.

"That's a really good gun."

The shooting just now was still very shocking to him.

I also have a clear understanding of this weapon.

If you are equipped with such a rifle, when facing an enemy equipped with a single-shot rifle, you can easily suppress the opponent and beat him so hard that he cannot raise his head.

After all, today's wars are all about firepower delivery. The greater the density of your firepower delivery, the greater advantage you will have in the war.

"Brother Jiang, are all the rifles your troops are equipped with this type of semi-automatic rifle?"

Jiang Hua nodded and said, "Yes, this rifle is our army's current standard rifle."

"hiss!"

If all of Jiang Hua's troops were equipped with this type of rifle, the firepower of the rifle alone would be extremely brutal.

One person can suppress several opponents.

"Can you sell this gun? Our Saibei Army also needs this kind of rifle."

Jiang Jingrui looked at Jiang Hua and asked with anticipation in his eyes.

If their Northern Frontier Army could be equipped with this type of rifle, then their combat effectiveness would be directly improved to a higher level, which is not an exaggeration at all.

"Want a semi-automatic rifle? You're overthinking it!"

Jiang Hua would definitely not sell Garland to them. It can be said that he would not sell any of the Red Alert Corps' active standard equipment.

Of course, he also knew how profitable arms were, not to mention that the Saibei Army was a big customer.

But he can't just sell off his current weapons just because he's short of money.

First, it will cause the leakage of active equipment, and second, it will be a disguised aid to the enemy.

Although the Saibei Army is their ally now, it is hard to say what will happen after their common enemy Yuan Shicheng falls.

Moreover, the identity of the other warlord destined that there would be a war between the two sides in the future.

However, the fact that current weapons cannot be sold does not mean that more outdated equipment cannot be sold.

These equipments, which he considered backward, were definitely advanced in the ancient country, or at least contemporary.

Of course, the M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle cannot be sold, but another semi-automatic rifle can be sold, and it also meets the needs of the Northeast Army very well.

This semi-automatic rifle is the ZH-20 semi-automatic rifle produced on a small scale by the Czech Republic in the late 29s. It uses 7.92 Mauser rifle bullets and can even be fed by the 20-round magazine of the Czech light machine gun.

However, this gun also has some major shortcomings, namely, it is unreliable in harsh environments, has high requirements for users, and can only be equipped in small quantities by elite troops.

But for Jiang Hua, every penny earned is a penny earned.

“This rifle has just entered mass production, so production is extremely limited at this time.

However, I have a semi-automatic rifle that I can sell to your Saibei Army. It uses 7.92 Mauser rifle bullets, which you can produce yourself, making it easier for you to resupply.

Jiang Jingrui was a little disappointed when he heard that he couldn't buy it, but when he heard that there was also a semi-automatic rifle, he became interested.

"Okay, as long as the performance is not worse than this gun, I will definitely purchase a batch."

This was a pleasant surprise for Jiang Hua.

You can take Jiang Jingrui to visit the barracks and sell arms at the same time.

So he became interested in the next trip and was already thinking about which weapons to sell that would bring higher profits and make money faster.

At present, it would be more beneficial for him to strengthen the northern border army to a certain extent, as it would be able to share more of the military pressure from the northern border.

So he didn't mind selling some weapons to the Saibei Army.

After visiting the four venues, Jiang Jingrui made some great discoveries.

These soldiers are very accurate with their marksmanship and possess high combat skills. They are obviously an elite force.

He also secretly compared his own guards with them. In terms of the quality of the soldiers alone, he might not be able to compare with these soldiers.

He couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Where on earth did Jiang Hua find so many elite soldiers?

It left him puzzled.

Next, the group came to two shooting ranges for training light and heavy machine guns.

These two light and heavy machine gun training ranges are used to train the MG34 general-purpose machine gun and the M2HB large-caliber heavy machine gun respectively.

This shooting range once again gave Jiang Jingrui a great shock.

He stared in amazement at the MG34 general-purpose machine gun firing at full power among the machine gunners.

"This...is this your light machine gun?"

The machine gunner used a bipod and also used a 75-round drum magazine.

With full firepower, all 75 bullets were fired in a few seconds, and the wooden target was smashed to pieces.

There is also an MG34 machine gun equipped with a tripod next to it, which uses a large 200-round ammunition belt.

"To be precise, this is a light and heavy dual-purpose machine gun, which is currently widely equipped in our grassroots troops.

This thing is just like a semi-automatic rifle, with limited production and cannot be sold."

Jiang Hua blocked his mouth in advance, which made Jiang Jingrui, who was about to speak, take back what he wanted to say in disappointment.

After walking around the camp, Jiang Jingrui looked at Jiang Hua.

"Brother Jiang, I heard your artillery is very powerful. How about taking me to see it?"

Want to see a cannon? That's easy, the profit of a cannon is much higher than that of a small weapon.

Large-caliber heavy artillery cannot be sold, but there is no problem with small and medium-caliber artillery.

Although the Saibei Army is now able to manufacture cannons on its own, their artillery steel is all imported from outside and the output is relatively low.

So Jiang Hua took him to the camp where the artillery unit of the Second Infantry Division was located, which shocked Jiang Jingrui even more.

On the flat ground where the cannons were parked, heavy artillery of various calibers were neatly arranged. At first glance, they were all long-barreled cannons.

火炮主要就三款,分别是M1938式122毫米榴弹炮、A-19型122毫米加农炮以及ML-20型152毫米重型榴弹炮。

The artillery has been produced, but the number of artillerymen has not yet been gathered, so these cannons are placed here, waiting for the troops to come and take them over.

The scene before him had a huge visual impact on Jiang Jingrui.

You can imagine how shocking it would be to see hundreds of cannons neatly placed in front of you.

"This is the location of our division's artillery unit. The artillery pieces of the two artillery regiments of the entire division are all here."

As the commentator, Jiang Tianming's shocking words once again shocked Jiang Jingrui, the young marshal of the Saibei Army.

"Your division is equipped with so many artillery pieces?"
