The role of artillery is very obvious to the generals of the Qi army. Artillery can destroy any enemy's firepower. In a strong formation, it will become vulnerable to the bombardment of artillery. Then, it is true that the infantry musket formation can completely win the battle. It was this idea of ​​firepower that made the generals of the Qi army believe that the key factors of victory were all on the artillery, and the supply of artillery shells would have a great relationship with the length of time for the shells to be suppressed. This is why the Sima Department of the Qi army was specially established and It is aimed at the logistics supply of firearms, especially the supply of shells, because whether the front line can exert the maximum firepower to suppress intentionally has a great relationship

Wars always allow war machines, especially the army, to do some efficient things for the Qi army. This is the case. The Qi army is also constantly learning and learning, especially about some tactics and tactics after the era of firearms warfare. The Qi army not only Only to learn, but also to constantly create ideas, because no one has such experience before

Qin State itself is constantly improving and learning things. The two powerful countries are constantly exploring firearm tactics. The Qin army relies too much on their advanced technology, while the Qi army continues to accumulate experience in tactics. At the same time, they also While learning the Qin Army's advanced concepts in overall management, such as the Qin Army's staff department system and other management methods, some generals of the Qi Army believe that they should also set up a military rank system like the Qin Army, but the establishment of this system is related to the Qin Army's economic foundation. related

The national foundation of Qin State is that when the industrialization era opened, people were free and equal in their work, and good corporate management made Qin Jun pay more attention to individual performance and the consistent play of collective effects, which is the reason for motivation. Qin State’s corporate management is Those who don't pay much attention to other personal reasons, such as what they did before they were born, what they value is their current ability

But Qi State is different from Qi State, which has a strict hierarchy system. Civilians are civilians, officials at the level of officials are officials, as for those scholars, they have their own circles, and although this boundary has become blurred for a while, it still exists. Existence makes it impossible for the Qi army to have such a military rank system that is conducive to promotion at the bottom

". The Qi Army's Sima Department is used to manage the Qi army's ammunition and logistics supplies. In the age of firearms, ammunition and logistics supplies are as important as a large amount of logistics supplies. Frontline soldiers not only need to consume a lot of food, clothing, fuel and other materials. guns and ammunition, and guns and ammunition are the largest consumables of weapons after replacing cold weapons

However, after all, the Qi army is an army that has not accepted the construction of the new army. Some problems still exist.

"Store all the ammunition there and hurry up," a man who looked like a Qi army officer shouted loudly and pointed the direction with his fingers from time to time.

"Here," some soldiers agreed weakly.

"Those officials are crazy, what should we do with so much ammunition?" A Qi soldier complained full of complaints.

"Moving one by one," replied an older veteran

The recruits had no choice but to carry those bulky ammunition boxes. About half of these ammunition boxes were bullets, the other half were shell propellants, and the rest were gunpowder.

"Put it there," said a Qi soldier with a gun on his back

Following the direction pointed by the soldiers of the Qi army, the soldiers finally saw what they saw. A simple tent was half exposed outside. In order to prevent the ammunition from being wet by snow, the Qi army also specially built some thatched roofs outside. This design is a solution. The problem of wet ammunition

But in fact, the Qi army has not completely solved this problem. Qi has to import a large amount of ammunition from Qin and South Korea every day. These ammunition are continuously transported from Qin to Qi through South Korea and Wei.

When importing in Qi State, some officials of Qi State also knew to keep the ammunition dry, so the scrap rate of ammunition was not very high, but the long-distance bumpy transportation and some improper handling often caused the ammunition to trigger a major explosion, but these did not cause Qi. The emphasis of Chinese officials is still on the quantity of ammunition needed by the frontline, and these ammunition must be transported as soon as possible.

This kind of transportation requirement that only seeks quantity but not quality has led to the whole country of Qi not paying attention to the quality of the ammunition transportation process. Even the storage situation at the front line is very bad, and it is extremely bad.

Most of the ammunition depots in Qi State are built in this simple way. The ammunition depot is dug half a foot high on the ground, and then a tent is built on this foundation, and then a thatched shed is built. Such a simple device has the lowest safety factor. You must know that thatched sheds and tents are flammable substances. These things are just a little bit, not to mention that there are a lot of ammunition stored in them. Doing so will pay a heavy price

However, another problem made the frontline soldiers of the Qi army complain that the bullets used in their weapons were very large. After shooting a few bullets, one bullet would fail to hit the fire. At this time, the soldiers of the Qi army had to manually open the valve to take out the bullets. When it is difficult to take it out, it is necessary to use a bayonet to pick out the ammunition and complete the manual installation, which brings great inconvenience to the combat effectiveness of the Qi army.

During the several battles launched by the Qi army against the besieged Qin army, some soldiers of the Qi army died from loading bullets or poor shooting. They often complained that their bullets were fake and inferior products. They even cursed the Koreans as unscrupulous profiteers.

In fact, during the transportation and storage of these bullets from Qin State to South Korea, the probability that these bullets are very good stink bombs is basically at a rate of only a dozen bullets for every [-] bullets. The gunpowder used in the valve rifle is still black powder. Gunpowder itself is prone to moisture, especially if Yunshun is not stored properly

However, Qi State’s pursuit of transport quantity regardless of transport quality has greatly increased the probability of such stinky bombs, especially front-line storage. There are big problems. For example, this simple ammunition depot is due to continuous snowfall, especially half dug The ground in the ten-foot-deep tunnel is already damp, and the Qi army did not take any moisture-proof measures, so they stored the ammunition inside. The soil contains a lot of water, even in winter, the effect of this humidity is very considerable. When the ammunition is used, the appearance of some bullets There is still copper rust on the copper surface, which shows how much the effect of this humidity is

The officers in charge of ammunition storage in the Qi army are very aware of this, but even so they still store it in this way

"It's okay, these bullets can definitely hit loudly. Besides, these bullets are all bought with money. Wouldn't it be a waste to use them?" The officer actually said like this

Under such management, soldiers using damp bullets to fight will greatly affect the operations of the people of Qi. This happened in a surprise attack by Qi on the besieged Qin army.

"Boom" The artillery in the distance made a roar, "Boom" There was a huge explosion, and the shells exploded around the Qin army's position

"Whoosh" Qin Jun responded by firing a flare to illuminate the entire dark night.

"Whoosh" a flare hit the sky and the position was suddenly illuminated into daylight

Flares with a parachute slowly landed on the ground quietly

"Pliers" a Qi Jundao covered in burlap

"Here" said another Qi soldier wrapped in burlap and handed a pair of pliers

There was a "bang" sound as the metal wire was snapped. "Boom" at this moment, a shell exploded just in front of the Qin army's position. The explosion well covered up the sound of the barbed wire being destroyed. The Qin army's guard post knew nothing about it The shelling drowns out this small sound

"Xi Xi Suo Suo" at this time, the soldiers of the Qi army cut several wires in succession, and another soldier of the Qi army on the side carefully grasped the wires, because there were cans hanging on the wires, and these cans would make a "crash!" The sound of these sounds is enough to expose the Qi army's sneak attack

"Hurry up, hurry up!" a man who looked like a military officer in the Qi State whispered, and those behind him crawled over carefully, without exception, all their attires were made of burlap. A good camouflage effect is close to the color of the land. Although there is snow on the ground, the land has been excavated and bombarded uninterruptedly into an irregular terrain of black and white. This terrain creates a visual sense of indiscriminateness. One of the great advantages of the Qi army's surprise attack is that the soldiers of the Qi army used this primitive camouflage to quietly approach the forward positions of the Qin army.

"Hurry up," said the officer.

"Uproarious" At this time, a soldier's cloth strip was hung by barbed wire

"Hush," the officer hissed softly.

"Don't make any noise," said the officer

And the soldiers around just nodded

"Be careful not to hang your clothes," the officer reminded carefully

Then the commandos of the Qi army crossed the gap in the barbed wire fence that had just been opened one by one, while two or three soldiers in front continued to cut the barbed wire to create a good offensive environment for the commandos behind.

At the other end, the soldiers of Qin State were curled up in the trenches without even daring to stick their heads out.

"Damn the Qi people, it's dark night and they fuck their mothers and don't let them sleep." A soldier of the Qin army cursed loudly, but the sound of the artillery was quickly covered up. Life in the trenches is boring plus being besieged Soldiers have been in a state of tension for a long time, desertion and lax vigilance are common occurrences, the officers of the Qin army have repeatedly emphasized this, but there is still no way because the soldiers are already in a state of exhaustion. This state makes it difficult for soldiers to maintain a high level of vigilance.

"Did you hear something?" A Qin soldier asked

"We couldn't sleep because of the bombardment," said another soldier.

"Oh, well, I misheard," the Qin soldier had to say.

"Be careful and pay attention to the barbed wire," the officer said. After cutting the barbed wire uninterruptedly, the soldiers of the Qi army finally opened the way to enter the forward position of the Qin army.

The commandos of the Qi army not only cut the barbed wire, but also another thing. They also learned how to remove this thing. The more deadly thing is the land mine. They use bayonets to remove it carefully, and then they will advance to where they want to advance to fight.

"The front is the Qin army's trench, we must enter carefully," the officer said.

"Yes, I understand." Several soldiers of the Qi army nodded silently, and then they began to crawl forward carefully, approaching the trenches of the Qin army.

"Look at it," said a soldier of the Qi army, while another soldier carefully approached the trench of the Qin army, and then quickly stretched his head out to check.

The soldiers of the Qi army saw nothing in the trenches, not even the soldiers of the Qin army on duty. This is usually a little bit because they know that the vigilance of the Qin army is relatively high, and their soldiers are rarely able to desert. The continuous artillery strikes reduced the morale of the soldiers of the Qin army to a low point. The Qin army did not want to happen, but it had to happen.

The soldiers of the Qi army took a look, made a gesture, and then quickly turned over and entered the trench

"Hurry up" said the officer directing another soldier into the trench

Just when the soldiers of the Qi Army entered the trench one by one, the Qin Army soldier felt that something was wrong. He thought that there was no problem with his hearing. So he walked out of his tunnel

"Who?" The soldiers of the Qin army gave a scare

"Shhh" Officer Qi signaled to keep quiet and everyone stopped talking

"People from the state of Qi" at this time, the soldiers of the Qin army shouted loudly
