"Okay, now that's the part about the new pistol." Jiang Yucheng said, "Now, it's time to start the highlight of this test"
In the middle of the shooting range, there were two sets of wooden stakes arranged in a rectangular shape - each stake was equipped with an Imperial Army amulet. Things like magical amulets were supposed to be produced by hand-enchanting cloth by a wizard or sorcerer. Under normal circumstances, the amulets produced by spellcasters above the trigonometric level have the most basic practical value. Under the same level conditions, the quality of amulets produced by mages is better than those produced by warlocks.
The amulets of the Imperial Army's battle infantry are mainly produced by the huge team of sorcerers in the Imperial Army. Although the cost is not high, the protective capabilities are really limited, so it must be used by battle infantry lined up in columns to form an array shield to have actual combat value.
Although the Republican Army itself did not have the ability to produce this thing by manual enchantment, the advanced ideas brought by Jiang Yucheng enabled the Republican Army's research and development power to find its own production method - inspired by Jiang Yucheng, The Jin Jia La trio successfully found a special way to deal with it.
Through this method, they can use low-cost magic potions similar to bleach commonly used in the textile industry on Earth to complete the enchantment work on items. At the same time, under Jiang Yucheng's guidance, they replaced the original fabric with a hard board based on aluminum oxide ceramics. According to the test results of the Jin Gaola trio, this new type of magic protective board can not only be mass-produced, but its defensive power is much stronger than the original mass-produced products from the empire.
In this test, the improved protective plate of the Jin Gaola trio is also one of the targets to be tested. The group on the left uses "original" amulets captured by the Imperial Army, while the group on the right uses knockoffs produced by the Jin Jia La trio.
In fact, after obtaining detailed information about the Type 04 infantry fighting vehicle, Quasimodo, a mechanical expert, innovatively proposed a method to enhance protection - equipping the infantry fighting vehicle with this magic protective plate .
If a row of protective plates is installed on the side of the infantry fighting vehicle and behind the turret, a small array-type shield can be constructed on the infantry fighting vehicle. Although the protection capability of this shield is not as good as the huge array shield deployed by the Imperial Army's battle infantry, it can at least enhance the protection capability of the infantry fighting vehicle's side and rear to basically the same level as the front - and the cost is It is very low, and the increase in vehicle weight is so small that it can be ignored.
According to Aria, most of the warlocks in the regular army of the empire use fireball. This kind of lethality is roughly equivalent to the magic of RPG. Although it poses no threat to main battle tanks, it still poses a great threat to infantry fighting vehicles. Moreover, this kind of array shield-type tank armor can also be installed on Jiefang Xiaoka and Dongfeng Mengshi high-mobility vehicles that have almost no protective capabilities. In this case, these vehicles that originally had no armor can also obtain stronger protection. bulletproof capability.
"This world is really wonderful" Seeing the ZBD-04 infantry fighting vehicle improvement plan jointly proposed by Captain Dongxian and Quasimodo, Jiang Yucheng couldn't help but sigh, "The fusion of technology and magic It looks like something interesting is going to happen"
"Then let the test begin now." Jiang Yucheng waved to the soldiers of the Guard Flag Force who had been waiting for a long time - now the 7th Steel Company is nominally a subordinate combat unit of the Guard Flag Force.
"Okay, sir!" The guard flag officer in charge of this test saluted Jiang Yucheng, and then made a gesture to the soldiers behind him. Then, amidst the roar of the diesel engine, a ZBD-04 infantry fighting vehicle slowly drove into the attack position.
"The first thing to be tested is the Type 04 infantry fighting vehicle. The first weapon is the 100mm smoothbore cannon." Adjutant Onion Niang said through the broadcast system.
"Attention test vehicles, please enter the No. 1 firing position now and fire once at the target area."
After hearing the order, the 04-step tank began to drive forward slowly and entered the No. 1 firing point 800 meters away from the wooden pile area. The infantry fighting vehicle turned the turret, and the muzzle of the 100mm low-pressure smoothbore gun was aimed at the wooden piles in front.
"Teng!" "Boom!!!!"
Something unexpected but reasonable happened - the 100mm shell only penetrated a layer of shield - more accurately, it penetrated. Although a little disappointed, Jiang Yucheng did not feel surprised.
After all, this 100mm low-bore pressure smoothbore gun is used to destroy enemy fortifications and firepower points and provide support for infantry. Therefore, only high-explosive shells can be used (the bore pressure is not enough, and the effect of armor-piercing shells is not good). The current array-type magic shield is obviously more like tank armor in nature. Therefore, this kind of high-explosive ammunition has a poor effect on it. Naturally?It's just a reasonable thing.
However, the 100mm smoothbore cannon is not the only weapon for infantry fighting vehicles - the next step is to test another important weapon on the infantry fighting vehicle turret - the 30mm rapid-fire cannon.
Unlike the smoothbore cannon, which only has high-explosive shells, the 30mm rapid-fire cannon can be equipped with incendiary and armor-piercing shells. The test results show that under continuous firing conditions, every five shells can destroy a layer of shield. Although a single layer of shield can be regenerated after being broken, it takes time - in other words, during this period, if a row of infantry can be defeated in one fell swoop, the first layer of shield can be completely disabled, and then the shield can be regenerated. It cannot be regenerated either.
Finally, the Type 04 infantry fighting vehicle also used the temporarily reinforced vehicle-mounted Hongjian-73 anti-tank missile to conduct a tentative attack. The result was slightly better - the armor-piercing warhead of the missile successfully penetrated three layers of shields (out of ten layers in total).
However, if the number of missiles carried and the rate of fire are taken into account, its actual combat effectiveness is not much higher than that of armor-piercing projectiles. After all, this first-generation wire-guided anti-tank missile that should have been eliminated, even if it is continued to be used by the always frugal Chinese army, is only used as a large RPG, used to attack enemy defenses, rather than the main force. Heavy armor targets such as battle tanks.
"Second Lieutenant, prepare to record." Jiang Yucheng said to Adjutant Onion Niang - next he will put forward the key points that should be paid attention to in the new version of the combat doctrine of the National Guard:
"When a mechanized infantry squad encounters an Imperial Army battle infantry array, if it cannot receive air support, artillery support or main battle tank support, and does not have mortars and other direct fire weapons, it can use a 30mm rapid-fire cannon in conjunction with a 100mm smoothbore cannon. ¡ª¡ª
First, use the 30mm cannon to fire armor-piercing projectiles, and break the shield through continuous attacks. If conditions permit, you can use anti-tank missiles to break the multi-layer shield. Then use the 100mm smoothbore cannon to fire high-explosive grenades. First, defeat some enemies, and use a method similar to stripping. Onion way to eliminate enemy infantry. Once the enemy infantry queue is defeated, the lone enemy infantry will lose the protection of the shield. At this time, each unit can use light weapons to hunt down lone infantry on their own. "
"Okay, the record is completed." Adjutant Onion Lady quickly replied, "By the way, sir - the system just sent you a lottery opportunity. You only need to spend 2,000 energy points to participate in a lottery - the prizes are very generous. .Do you want to give it a try?"
"Okay, let's give it a try." Jiang Yucheng said casually - now, the territory in his hands has expanded a lot, and he earns tens of thousands of energy points every day. Although the expenses of expanding armaments and training troops have to be deducted, there are still a few thousand left. Still no problem.
Next, the Type 04 infantry fighting vehicle left the launch position, and the next "appearance" was the AFT-9 vehicle-mounted anti-tank missile launch system.
The vehicle is equipped with advanced observation and sighting equipment and launches the "Hongjian-9" third-generation heavy anti-tank missile independently developed by China. This advanced anti-tank missile has powerful armor-breaking capabilities - the vertical penetration thickness of static armor penetration can reach 1200 mm, while the vertical penetration thickness of static armor penetration of the American "TO"-2a heavy anti-tank missile is only 1040 mm mm. This armor-piercing capability can destroy any active main battle tank on the planet, which can be described as "one-hit kill."
¡°Target confirmed¡ªlaunch!¡±
¡°Whoosh¡ªboom!!¡±
Compared with the backward Hongjian-73 missile, the killing effect of the cutting-edge Hongjian-9 heavy anti-tank missile is obviously one level higher - the high-temperature metal jet broke through a total of 6 layers of shields and ignited the wooden piles along the way. . If this is in actual combat, then the Imperial Army soldiers will experience the feeling of "eternal life in the fire"
"In actual combat, it is recommended that the commander strengthen the anti-tank missile launch vehicle to the mechanized infantry unit when the infantry fighting vehicle is allowed to act alone." Jiang Yucheng wrote such a line again.
Finally, the finale is the ace cavalry - the Type 99 main battle tank. After the tall and powerful main battle tank entered the firing position, it turned its muzzle and aimed at the wooden pile array in front of it. Then, there was a loud "bang!" and a tongue of flame more than four meters long was sprayed from the muzzle of the tank's 125mm main gun.
"Wow!"
After a sound like breaking glass, the entire array shield was penetrated from beginning to end by a 125mm tungsten alloy stabilized-wing sabot armor-piercing projectile, just like a punctured membrane.
"Haha, the effect is really good" Jiang Yucheng said very happily - at the same time, he wrote the last note in the new version of the combat doctrine about the chapter against the imperial army's battle infantry:
"For the commander of the armored forces, if there are enemy infantry who are overestimating their capabilities and dare to block our progress with their arms, then youThe only thing we need to do is to use the main gun to blast them into pieces! "
