Chapter 321 Pretend
The first thing to be equipped is the Bobosha submachine gun.
These submachine guns were urgently produced by Sisoi according to Katukov's request and equipped with the 1st Guards Tank Brigade.
You must know that this is not a small number. Each squad is equipped with two to three tanks, and an infantry regiment needs thousands of tanks. In addition to the necessary reserves, the equipment of the logistics force and the anti-aircraft artillery battalion, it is the number one tank for the guards. The brigade produced two thousand.
This can be said to be very difficult when the war situation is tense and factories across the country are rushing to produce strategic materials.
Shulka also tried this gun, and it was not much different from the previous ones in the laboratory.
In fact, Shulka believes that even if it is equipped in batches in half a year, the difference will not be very big... Its performance has already been formed, and the reason why Spakin has not put it into mass production is that it wants to Its structure is designed to be simpler and more convenient for mass production.
So in terms of firepower, Shulka thought there would be no problem. One squad machine gun plus two or three submachine guns, this firepower could suppress the German army without any pressure.
Where Shulka thinks there is still room for improvement is with the riflemen.
"Rifling at close range is not so important!" Shulka said: "So I think it is necessary to pick two from the riflemen as snipers!"
"sniper"
"Yes!" Shulka said: "They can stay in the second echelon and have more freedom to choose any favorable terrain to be responsible for killing more important or distant targets, such as enemy machine gunners, officers, and forced troops." Gunner wait!"
"We may not have that much time!" Katukov said: "This cannot be done in a short time!"
"We can choose from rifles with good marksmanship!" Shulka said: "They just perform different tasks and don't need to be as strict as training snipers!"
Katukov nodded. After all, the situation is indeed as Shulka said. If the battle on the front line is at a distance of about 100 meters, then the long-range range of the rifle cannot be used. There's nothing wrong with fighting.
So a temporary sniper unit was quickly formed.
This unit also did not disrupt the original unit formation, but selected two experienced fighters with good marksmanship from each squad of riflemen for intensive training... Of course, there are exceptions, although Antipunov, who is religious, did not The experience and marksmanship are not very good, but Shulka named him as one of them.
The training was organized by Shulka himself.
"The first thing you have to consider is not to kill the enemy, understand?" Shulka said: "How to hide yourself!"
These words made the soldiers look at each other in dismay, it was different from their usual education.
"Why, comrade captain?" Antipunov asked.
"Because the invisible enemy is the most terrifying, Comrade Antipunov!" Shulka replied: "I think you know this too, it needs you to find it, it will make you feel like a thorn in your back, it will make you dare not Expose yourself easily, so the combat effectiveness is greatly reduced, although you only occasionally shoot a few shots and kill a few targets!"
The soldiers nodded in agreement.
On the battlefield, they occasionally encountered German snipers, especially when the two armies faced each other, and that feeling would make people crazy.
Therefore, the focus of Shulka's training is not "sniping", but camouflage, finding commanding heights, and controlling the battlefield, that is, to distinguish which are valuable targets.
Among them, camouflage is actually very easy to achieve.
The camouflage of the soldiers before was just a piece of white cloth as a cloak, which was barely enough for positional warfare and defensive warfare, but it was not suitable for offensive and marching.
So Shulka asked someone to design a white snow suit. This kind of snow suit is relatively large and can be worn outside the military uniform. There is even a big hat connected with the clothes. put it on.
Then all the equipment such as bullet bags, belts, engineering shovels, rifles, etc. were all wrapped in white cloth, so that the whole body was white and almost blended with the snow, and it was difficult for the German soldiers to find them as long as they lay down on the ground.
While the 1st Guards Tank Brigade was undergoing intensive training, the situation on the front line also underwent some changes.
A German armored regiment has broken through the defense line and has reached the Red Polyana area.
The Red Polyana area is only 27 kilometers away from Moscow, and it only needs to set up a cannon here to bomb Moscow.
Stalin immediately hung up a phone call to the headquarters of the 16th Army.
"General Rokossovsky!" Stalin said, "I have received information that I am trying to bomb Moscow with large-caliber artillery in the Red Polyana area! Although it will not cause much substantial damage to Moscow's defense, it will But it may affect the confidence of the people and the whole world, so we must drive them out!"
"I agree, Comrade Stalin!" Rokossovsky replied: "But we can't spare any troops. If the 1st Guards Tank Brigade can be reinforced..."
"They still need time to prepare!" Stalin interrupted Rokosovsky: "What measures are you going to take to repel them?"
"I need more troops, Comrade Stalin!" Rokossovsky replied: "Then I'll get Red Polly back!"
Stalin hung up the phone without saying anything.
At this time, Stalin did not want to use the Far East Front Army, because he did not want the German army to know that the Soviet Union had the strength to launch a counterattack. He hoped that the German army would continue to be consumed like this, and the Soviet army would launch a counterattack when they were exhausted.
But now, the Red Poli area is too close to Moscow, so close that even shells can hit Moscow...
After thinking about it, Stalin ordered: "Send reinforcements to the 16th Army!"
"yes!"
The reinforcements Stalin sent to the 16th Army this time can be said to be generous. It has an artillery regiment, four "Katyusha" rocket battalions and two infantry battalions.
Two of these infantry battalions are not too many, and one artillery regiment is considered normal, but four "Katyusha" rocket artillery battalions... these are 48 rocket artillery, and these rocket artillery are enough to drive the entire Hongboli area back and forth. Boomed several times.
This made Rokossovsky ecstatic. You must know that the front line has always been short of equipment, especially things like the "Katyusha" rocket launcher, which have always been short of guns or ammunition.
If there were so many rocket launchers before, the 16th Army would not be passive in the face of enemy armored forces.
But now, Moscow has reinforced 48 rocket launchers in one go... This made Rokossovsky realize that reinforcements may have arrived.
