"In the future, your missions will change, search, destroy... many times you will need to go to fight farther away. The two of you will take care of each other, and the deputy shooter can also help you guard and observe the surrounding enemies..."
The officer explained.
After he finished speaking, he paused and continued to add: "Don't worry, I gave Mike the sniper training manual. He will give it to you after he reads it. You will give it to Silton after you read it."
Cao Fei nodded. He was very aware of the importance of this kind of manual. As long as he circulated it, he would almost understand what role he should play in the battle.
Datang Group's tactical manual is definitely a good thing to be combined with actual combat, and it is very confidential even internally.
Under normal circumstances, the documents corresponding to the military units will be put away after being circulated, and not a single copy will be leaked out, and the accounts must be checked clearly.
As for the use of snipers, Tang Mo, as a "experienced person", naturally knows everything. Single-person sniper teams will soon be eliminated, and sniper teams are the correct development path.
Now that he knew the correct direction for subsequent development, Tang Mo would not use his precious sniper talents to try and make mistakes. He directly took out the most standard sniper tactics textbook, the kind that had been tested in actual combat.
With such teaching materials, snipers will pay a lot less in battle and reduce their own losses.
"I said, how about that girl?" The officer seemed to be more interested in Cao Fei's bride than the sniper's tactical manual.
"Very good, she is a woman who lives a good life." Cao Fei gave a brief summary. He knew that the officer might have asked about the colorful aspect, but his answer was about another aspect.
Sure enough, the officer felt a little resentful, scratched his head and stood up: "I went to Silton to have a look. He doesn't smoke either."
Cao Fei stood up and saluted at attention with his chin held high. The officer waved his hand impatiently: "Then what are you going to do officially? You can do your business."
He turned around and left. Cao Fei knelt down and continued to organize the few remaining things of his own. In order to carry these equipment, the backpack and tactical vest were newly designed and seemed to be more comfortable to wear, and Cao Fei liked them very much.
When packing up his personal belongings, he found a photo in his ID card. It was of a very thin girl standing next to him.
In order to prevent the local gangsters from disturbing those who had just entered the city, most of the women whose husbands were soldiers stationed outside the city, and the army's methods were also very simple and crude.
They arranged to take photos of all the couples getting married, and then each person would develop a few photos and use them as temporary documents.
Women carry such photos with them so that they can show them when they are interrogated or use them as amulets when they encounter nuisance.
If there are any blind people who dare to continue to look for trouble, the army will step in to deal with it - after a few live-fire target training sessions, the bastards in the city who are looking for trouble have almost disappeared.
I heard that a woman who married a soldier was harassed by nine gangsters and showed the photos she carried with her, but they still kept pestering her.
So the woman fled to the street and shouted for help. The nine gangsters were blocked in the alley by 20 passing patrols and beaten for an hour.
The police arrived later, asked about the situation and took over the case - they continued to beat him for another half hour.
For a moment, it was impossible to tell who the gangsters were. A group of gangsters who fell unconscious on the ground even wanted to call the police... Reality is often more magical than stories.
Cao Fei did not close his notebook immediately, but looked down at the photo with some awkward girls standing next to him.
The other party was wearing a set of work clothes that didn't fit well - this was the only thing Datang Group could manage at the moment, and it was cheap and could be supplied at will.
She stood about a fist away from Cao Fei, with her eyes lowered and not daring to look at the camera. Her hands were nervously clasped in front of her chest, and her hair was a little messy.
However, because she has been eating rice dumplings for a few days, her complexion has improved significantly, and it can be seen that she is actually not ugly, at least she is above average.
Thinking of what happened after the previous collective wedding, Cao Fei blushed slightly, quickly closed the notebook and stuffed it into his breast pocket.
…
At the docks of Fengshun City and Fengshun Port, another group of pale-faced soldiers landed. Some people lay on the edge of the dock and retched into the sea water, while others supported each other and waited for new orders.
Not far away, an officer was holding a record book, standing at the place where the team must pass, and asked loudly: "Is there anyone who can swim? Is there anyone who doesn't get seasick?"
His voice was very high, but the soldiers passing by seemed completely uninterested in this kind of thing. They had just arrived here by boat from Bunas, and had been wandering here longer than they had been drifting from Long Island. Naturally, they were seasick when swimming.
Not interested at all.
But soon, someone heard a cry that interested them: "There is a subsidy for signing up! A monthly subsidy of 50 silver coins! Has anyone signed up?"
"I can swim!" Among the crowd, a soldier with a slightly better face raised his arm, and he was soon taken to the open space on the other side.
There are already cars waiting at the edge of the open space. These selected soldiers will be gathered together. They will be the skeleton of the Datang Group's Marine Corps.
Because many problems arose during the East Bay landing this time, Tang Mo and other senior executives of the Datang Group realized that it was necessary to establish a Marine Corps.
At least from the later development point of view, landing in the Zheng Kingdom and attacking the Mirage Kingdom will require the first batch of landing troops with strong combat effectiveness to expand the landing site, even seize the port, help the follow-up troops establish a safe beachhead, and ensure that the follow-up troops can
Arrive ashore in a safe environment.
When there are requirements, there must be corresponding improvements. Datang Group is preparing to draw more suitable talents from various troops and form a new combat force: the Marine Corps.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! This force is required to be more adaptable to long-distance sea transportation and be able to maintain strong combat effectiveness during sea transportation.
Everyone must master the skills required for landing, be able to use more advanced landing equipment, and be familiar with various tactics for fighting on the beach.
Anyway, Bernard, Tiger, Tang Mo and Loew, no one wants to see a group of soldiers who vomited when they got ashore, half-dead to attack the strong beachhead defense positions that the enemy may have fortified.
If the combat effectiveness of both sides is at a roughly similar level, then such a battle will pay a heavy price, and the landing may even fail!
"The pension for those killed in action is higher! There are monthly allowances, navy-level supplies, longer vacations, and faster promotions..." The officer who was planning to establish the Marine Corps waved a carrot to make the soldiers who were familiar with the sea eager to give it a try.
Not everyone is afraid of the sea. At least in port cities such as Bunas and Rewind Port, there are many people who are familiar with water and will not get seasick.
They have lived by the sea since they were young, and taking boats is a common occurrence. They can thrive on smaller and more bumpy wooden sailing boats, and naturally they can also live on free ships.
Although most of these people have become sailors and officers of the navy, there are still a few who are serving in the army. This time they have waited for their opportunity for promotion.
These soldiers who came from afar belonged to the 5th Light Infantry Division of the Datang Group. Their weapons and equipment were not even issued before they were shipped to Dongwan Island.
This unit, which had only completed basic training, did not even have light weapons issued to the soldiers. However, they soon received their second-hand weapons on Dongwan Island.
The Maxim heavy machine guns eliminated by the 1st Infantry Division were directly transferred to the 5th Division, and the 1st Infantry Division has now begun to replace them with the lighter and more powerful MG42 general machine guns.
Anyway, Datang Group has been using 8mm caliber bullets (7.92mm caliber), so Tang Mo simply used the full set of small arms.
Now, his troops have almost unified the calibers of small arms: in addition to pistols and submachine gun bullets, general machine guns, sniper rifles, and rifles all use 8 mm caliber bullets, which can probably simplify some logistics.
The performance of the MG42 machine gun is unparalleled. It was able to play a major role in World War II and naturally has its own advantages.
Naturally, there are also shortcomings. All weapons have their own shortcomings. As long as the shortcomings do not affect their use in combat, they can be tolerated.
Based on actual combat experience, the troops of the Datang Group are adjusting the weapon ratio of their own troops. The front-line combat troops who pay more attention to firepower believe that there should be about three submachine gunners in an infantry squad.
The 1st Division is changing its equipment based on this experience, increasing the proportion of submachine guns, and also equipping all snipers with G43s. A large number of continuous-fire weapons have been installed, which has indeed increased the firepower density of the 1st Division.
In order to meet the increased ammunition projection capability, the 1st Division must expand its logistics supply unit and equip more vehicles to transport more ammunition.
The same thing happened on Long Island. The 3rd Division, which took over from the 1st Division, was also equipped with more new weapons. On the contrary, the 2nd Division stationed in Bunas had not yet started to change its equipment due to the need for confidentiality.
On the 25th day after the Battle of Dongwan Island, Datang Group had transported the entire 1st Division and most of the 4th and 5th Divisions to the island.
The entire Dongwan Island has now become a large construction site, a large military camp, and a large school.
Shiploads of teaching materials and teachers were transported here. The sound of reading in Dongwan City echoed the sound of the troops training outside the city, and there was actually a sense of harmony.
It was also on this day that the construction of the first railway built by Datang Group on Dongwan Island began, and the first sleeper was laid. It was also on this day that the port in Dongwan City was connected to electricity and used electric cranes.
