In fact, for many foreign legionnaires, they basically do not have any psychological risks.
This is the advantage of being uneducated. Only when you read a lot will you start to think wildly. The thoughts of the dog-slaughterers will be relatively simple.
In fact, Lanfang has never stopped educating soldiers, and various night school cram schools are also widely available. However, for many soldiers, it is enough to be able to recognize a few words and not ask for help when writing letters home. Many soldiers
Soldiers' understanding of culture has not yet risen to a philosophical level, so it is a bit difficult for them to consider the relationship between killing and human nature.
Huang Li was still not careless. In Lanfang's army, it can be said that no one has more experience in facing the indigenous people than Huang Li, so Huang Li is also more cautious. Despite Huang Li's normal performance, it is not
It doesn't mean that Huang Li didn't smell the roses carefully. When the war was about to begin, Huang Li still did what a commander should do.
The boys were all ready to enter the outermost bunker. Huang Li greeted them loudly as soon as he entered the door.
This is a semi-permanent fortification that complies with the Lanfang infantry drill standards. The bottom is made of thick logs as the foundation, and the keel made of high-quality steel is used as the support. The top logs are also covered with sandbags covered with protective nets. The protective nets are used
branches as camouflage.
The bunker is about six or seven square meters, and the long and narrow shooting holes can cover most of the area in front of the bunker. There are six people stationed in such a bunker, two machine gunners, two deputy shooters and two riflemen. The weapons they have are two
There are Type 20 light machine guns, four M2 rifles, two or six pistols, and countless bullets and grenades.
The Lanfang Army has no restrictions on pistol equipment. In principle, soldiers can carry as much as they want with them when they go to the battlefield. The Lanfang Military Headquarters is responsible for the supply of nine-millimeter bullets, but is not responsible for the supply of guns. All sidearms are
The soldiers prepare it themselves. Most of the soldiers use m1911. The Lanfang Military Department has obtained the production license for this pistol. After increasing the ammunition capacity from seven rounds to nine rounds, this pistol became the Lanfang Army's first choice.
Standard pistol.
When they were ready, they saw Huang Li coming in. All six young men stood at attention and saluted, their voices full of desire for battle.
The boys were indeed prepared. Just before Huang Li arrived, two machine gunners were checking the spare barrels. Each machine gun in the exploration team is equipped with three spare barrels. In principle, two are equipped with the gun.
, one spare. This time, because we are facing more enemies and the expected fighting intensity is relatively high, all three barrels have been distributed. Now these barrels are next to the shooting position, within reach of the deputy shooter.
In terms of position, once the battle starts, it can ensure that the secondary shooter can quickly change the barrel in the shortest time.
In addition to changing the barrel, the deputy shooter is also responsible for changing bullets. In the magazine box next to the spare barrel, a dozen 97-round drums are ready, which can almost supply a machine gun with burst fire for about half an hour.
.
The task of the rifleman in the bunker during non-combat time is to press bullets into the drum with the auxiliary shooter. After the battle begins, if the machine gunner is injured or killed, the rifleman must be ready to take over at any time, and must also be prepared with grenades if the enemy approaches.
The machine gun bunker is when the rifleman's grenades come into play.
In this machine gun bunker, 15 boxes of bullets have been prepared. According to Lanfang's army standard of 1,600 rounds of bullets per box, the bullets stored in this machine gun bunker alone are enough to kill half of the gathered Malagasy people.
Of course, in actual combat, killing an enemy with 100 bullets is considered a good result.
It sounds a little inefficient, but in fact this is a very good probability. Don't think that if you equip a machine gun, you will kill everyone. There are no relevant statistics during the First World War and I don't know what the specific efficiency is, but in the Second World
During the war, the U.S. military required an average of nearly 200,000 rounds of ammunition to destroy an enemy. Even the Germans, who are recognized as having the highest individual quality, needed more than 2,000 rounds of ammunition to eliminate an enemy.
Therefore, if the Foreign Legion can kill an enemy with 100 rounds of bullets, it is already extremely efficient.
Very good, please rest a moment. Huang Li expressed satisfaction with the mental state of the boys and patted the shoulder of the soldier closest to the bunker door with a smile: Your position is at the outermost edge of our defense circle, and you will be the first to be attacked by the natives.
,Are you scared
The structure of this temporary camp is a semi-circular defensive position, relying on the camp wall, with a circle of bunkers on the outside. The bunker where Huang Li is located is the outermost one.
Don't be afraid. General, please rest assured. As long as those natives dare to come, I guarantee that they will never come back. The soldiers are full of fighting spirit, the deputy representative of the squad with the rank of sergeant replied.
Sergeant is the first level of soldiers in Lanfang's military rank system. In fact, there is a sergeant major above the sergeant, but sergeants are all senior soldiers. They have not been promoted to the officer position for various reasons, but they enjoy the
The salary is not lower than that of lieutenant-level officers, and even in terms of the importance of the unit, the importance of sergeants is higher than that of low-ranking officers.
There are only two sergeants in the entire exploration team. The status of these two sergeants in the exploration team is second only to Huang Li and Wu Qing, and is more important than ordinary company and platoon-level officers.
Very good, keep your mission in mind, remember the honor of our Foreign Legion, and never retreat. Huang Li is very satisfied. Morale is an important factor in determining the outcome of a war.
All the soldiers expressed their determination with the loudest answers.
The Malagasy people did not give Huang Li too long, and only inspected less than half of the bunkers. The Malagasy figures could already be seen in the distance. Wu Qing also hurriedly came to report: That bastard from Magnum wanted to run away, but I locked him up.
.
In fact, keeping Magnum and his more than 100 men will not be of much help to the upcoming battle, but at this critical moment, Magnum and the others cannot be allowed to shake the morale of the army. If Magnum withdraws when the battle is about to break out,
Go, this will definitely cause a series of chain reactions.
Damn it, if I want to kill him, Huang Li will get angry right away.
I can't take care of him now. We'll wait until the fight is over. I'll go to the other side and leave this side to you. After Wu Qing finished speaking, he led the guards and ran towards the other end of the temporary camp.
There are more and more Malagasy people in the distance, just like the indigenous people Huang Li and the others saw a few days ago. Those indigenous people have feathers on their heads that seem to be picked from the tails of some birds, and their faces are painted with colorful paint.
There are many colorful strips with unknown meanings. Most of them are not wearing clothes. A few of them are wearing a narrow animal skin around their waists. They are not used to protect vital parts. They look more like decoration.
The weapons of these Madagascar natives are still spears and bows, but Huang Li and the others do not dare to be careless now. It is estimated that these spears and arrows have been quenched with poison. Even if they are scratched by these weapons, the military doctors will be helpless.
These natives were quite organized. They did not rush to launch an attack, but began to gather on the hills in the distance, as if they wanted to exert psychological pressure on this side.
In this case, it is actually better to use a mortar to attack. At this distance, the maximum power of the mortar can be exerted.
Huang Li still suppressed the temptation in his heart. Huang Li wanted to teach these natives a profound lesson so that they would never forget today's tragic situation. Only using mortars would not achieve the goal. Only heavy machine guns would exert the greatest deterrence.
force.
In terms of deterrence, artillery is indeed inferior to heavy machine guns.
If a person is hit by artillery, most likely they will be torn apart into humanoid shapes. Even if it is a large-caliber artillery, it may be directly vaporized. Heavy machine guns are different. If a person is hit by a heavy machine gun, most of his body will be directly beaten in two.
At this time, the person will not die immediately, but will struggle and cry in extreme pain. At this time, the torture for the companions is the most serious. Even if you save them, you will not be able to save them. And if you don’t save them, you will hear them.
Hearing those pleading voices and seeing his former companions struggling in pain, that kind of struggle can really make people schizophrenic.
Huang Li planned to use heavy machine guns to turn this place into a Shura field.
The effective range of the heavy machine gun equipped by Lanfang is about 1,500 meters, and the maximum range is more than 4,000 meters. This is almost meaningless. Basically, at a distance of one thousand meters, the bullets will not know where to fly, so Lanfang military regulations
, the heavy machine gun can only fire when the enemy is within a thousand meters.
Now that he wanted to pursue maximum results, and he was facing enemies who were not equipped with thermal weapons, Huang Li decided to place the enemies closer in order to achieve the maximum killing effect.
So when the Malagasy natives launched an attack, Huang Li was not in a hurry to order shooting. He just kept reminding the soldiers to cheer up: Be prepared, don’t panic, remember the shooting essentials, bring the enemy closer, and then attack, pay attention to the combination of burst shooting and strafing.
Be cooperative
Such words may seem meaningless, but they can effectively relieve the tension of the soldiers and let the soldiers know that their commanders are with them and that they are in a strong and efficient group. Even new recruits are in this constant situation.
They will also become calm after being reminded, while veterans will enter a combat state and enter a rhythm they are familiar with.
There was still a deviation from Huang Li's estimate. Before the Malagasy people entered the 500-meter area, the other end of the camp suddenly erupted with the sound of rapid machine gun shooting and the sound of mortar shells breaking through the air.
Wu Qing's side is already fighting.
Huang Li did not hesitate, and immediately gave the order at the loudest volume: everyone should open fire.
