Compared with Qin Jun's gunpowder therapy, it is Qi Jun's snipers that give Qin Jun the most headache
"The opponent's sharpshooter was too accurate. Many of our machine gunners were hit and some of them died directly. We have to find a way," an officer of the Qin Army suggested to his chief.
"We can only keep shifting positions and there is no good way for the time being," the officer's chief replied.
"However, I don't want the word sharpshooter to call them snipers. They are not gods, and they can be killed by our machine gunners," the officer continued.
The word sniper comes from Shangwen Shangwen once proposed to establish a special sniper because the Qin army also benefited from sniper tactics in the battle against the Yuezhi people, but this tactic has not been widely promoted.
The reason is that the opponents of the Qin army are all nomads in large-scale mobile warfare. They are very mobile and their opponents are good at group charges. It is obviously inappropriate for such enemy sniper tactics, and the role they play is not very obvious.
One shot kills one, but the enemy rushes in a group and the two sides have not entered into an equal stalemate, so in Qin Jun's view, the effect of sniping is far inferior to that of a machine gun. A machine gun can sweep the entire enemy and kill on a large scale. Kill the enemy and the sniper can only accurately kill the enemy and can't do anything else
Therefore, according to their own experience, the Qin army believed that the effect of sniping was far less powerful than that of machine guns, so they underestimated the effect of sniping. On the contrary, the Qi army started the rear harassing tactics because the weapons were not as good as the Yan army at the beginning of the war. After the introduction of muskets, especially after the two-shot entered the stalemate stage, the role of sniping began to rise rapidly and became the standard tactical sniper tactics of the Qi army, which has been recognized by the Qi army.
For example, the Qi army has such special soldiers in the general army. They may not wear military uniforms, but they must have good camouflage. This is the first army to use sniper camouflage tactics in this period. They wear irregular linen caps, which can play a role. Good camouflage because the color of the sackcloth matches the color of the earth. In addition to these, different sackcloth strips are tied on their bodies, and finally they will have a layer of sackcloth on their backs so that they lie on both sides. It is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye at a glance in the land a hundred steps away. If there is a haystack, the probability of discovery will be greatly reduced.
In addition to the camouflage, the snipers of the Qi army also used carefully selected rifles. The Qi army imported a batch of rear-pull rotary rifles without magazines from arms dealers in other countries, because the bullets used in this rifle are free. The firing range of pyrotechnic ammunition is much higher than that of valve rifles, especially Wenyang rifles. Wenyang rifles use ghost rings to aim and shoot within a certain distance, so Qi army snipers like this rifle very much.
However, the sniper rifles used by the Qi army are not professional sniper rifles, and their rifles are not specially developed for sniper tactics. On the contrary, their rifles are ordinary infantry rifles equipped by the Qin army before. There is no special lengthened barrel or other measures. The most important thing about a stable rifle is that the rifles are unified without an optical sight. On the contrary, the snipers of the Qi army like to aim with the naked eye because they can see more things. But the problem is that after using the telescope, the field of view will become narrow, so you don’t know what’s going on around you. The worst thing is that the reflection of the lens of the telescope exposes the position of the sniper, so the snipers in the Qi army don’t approve of the addition of the telescope. They think it’s installed Binoculars are a huge distraction for them so they don't use scopes instead they really like the feeling of shooting without optics because they can shoot fast
This is also the reason why Qin Army's machine gunners were hit a lot, but few were directly killed At the same time they can also eject the bullet case and reinstall a new round to design
However, Qin Jun had to be beaten passively because he did not promote sniper tactics. In terms of tactical application, the Qin army is very lacking in this aspect
On the contrary, because there is no heavy firepower to suppress the Qi army and Zhao Jun has made bold innovations and attempts in this regard, it has to be said that this is also a fair one.
In this way, the sniper of the Qi army fired a shot, and the machine gunner of the Qin army immediately used the machine gun in his hand to retaliate wildly at the suspicious target, and then another sniper of the Qi army fired a shot to attract firepower. The machine gunner of the Qin army attacked another target. In this way, the front line temporarily staged a game of cat and mouse
Behind this kind of game, the soldiers of the Qi army are digging their trenches desperately, and then approaching each other one by one. The connection will also cut off the connection with the outside world because the Qi army expands the defensive encirclement
It was only when the two sides entered a stalemate that the frontline executives of the Qi army knew what was happening here. The communication status of the Qi army was not like that of the Qin army, which could be contacted by telephone and telegram. On the contrary, the communication status of the Qi army still remained in the Warring States period. They need to send special communication personnel to carry out personnel exchanges and deliver messages and orders
"What is it that more than 1000 people on our left flank surrounded an airport of the Qin army?" The news Tian Heng got was half a month ago, but the situation has changed now.
In fact, the communication personnel of the Qi Army have worked very hard, but the very bad road conditions in Yan State and the interference of the rain and snow made it take half a month for the communication personnel to find the front-line base camp of the Qi Army.
"I'll take a look at the letter" Tian Heng took the battle report to check the situation
"Huh..." Tian Heng couldn't believe that they could meet the Qin Army's troops on their left flank, and there was a high possibility of an exchange of fire.
"This is already half a month ago." Tian Heng looked at the date and said
"A lot of things have happened in half a month and we don't know anything." Tian Heng felt very nervous in his heart. The appearance of the Qin army means that it is very likely that the Qin army has already intervened in the battle of Yan State. Tian Heng is weighing the interests of both sides. relation
But there is one thing he can't understand, that is why Qin Jun suddenly appeared, and the timing of Qin Jun's appearance is a little too early, because in his opinion, Qin is the country that is best at seizing the opportunity, and they will never intervene at the beginning War is very unfavorable to Qin, because if it intervenes prematurely, it is very likely to drag itself into the quagmire of war. Once it is dragged to death, it may cause a great loss in national strength and affect the diplomatic situation of the entire country.
According to Tian Heng's most probable hypothesis, it is very likely that Zhao Jun dealt with Zhao Jun at the earliest. It is still very unclear that the situation like Qin Jun's sudden appearance of big damage is still very unclear.
After much deliberation, Tian Heng still couldn't figure out why this happened.
The generals on the side watched the young civil servant turn around and they didn't know what to do.
"En..." Tian Heng couldn't figure it out and decided to look for any news value that could be used from the letter.
"Qin Army Airport" Tian Heng saw these words and said
"Is there a large team at the Qin Army Airport?" Tian Heng asked suddenly
"Well, there are not many people, about three or four hundred people," the communications soldier replied.
"That's right." Tian Heng finally figured it out.
"The Qin army did not intervene on a large scale and the appearance of this Qin army was an accident," Tian Heng said confidently.
"Qin has no plans to intervene at the moment, but this is an opportunity." Tian Heng thought for a while and then waved his hand to signal for the messenger to withdraw.
"My lord, the Qin army appears," a family general stepped forward and asked
"Don't worry about the Qin army. This Qin army is just an accident, but if you encounter this Qin army, you have to use it," Tian Heng said.
"Do you know why the Qin army only used planes in the sky on the front line of Yan State?" Tian Heng also learned from the newspaper that it was Qin State's plane
The generals shook their heads to express their ignorance
"Qin is not only fierce, but also cunning. They want to make a profit. Now they haven't got the maximum profit, so they only send planes to fight and are unwilling to use ground power to fight. Now our army is advancing quickly and unexpectedly encounters In other words, this is purely an accident, now we have to make good use of this accident to beat Qin State well," Tian Heng said with a smile.
"Please tell me, my lord," a scholar will ask
"If we encircle and eat this Qin army, what do you think the Qin Congress will do?" Tian Heng asked
"Wouldn't it be a great disadvantage to us if the Qin army would get involved?" the generals replied.
"No, the Qin army will not enter all at once, on the contrary, they will hesitate and their attitude is very difficult to determine," Tian Heng said.

"The harder we fight, if we can completely annihilate this Qin army, the less Qin will dare to attack us." Tian Heng said confidently, and the other generals were stunned. No matter how they thought about it, they couldn't understand this young man. Are people crazy? If the Qin State does not wipe out an army, it will definitely take revenge. At that time, the Qi State is likely to face a direct attack from the powerful Qin army.
But Tian Heng thinks that this kind of situation is impossible to happen. The Qin State will suffer from this dumb loss. The people of Qin will not use all the country's military power to attack Qin because of the loss of hundreds of troops. No matter what angle Tian Heng starts from, Qin is indeed impossible. The reason for sending troops prematurely is that Qin's national interests are not enough to take huge risks and invest in a war that cannot be profitable
This may be Tian Heng's consideration, but Qin State can use its huge economic advantages to control other countries to participate in it, such as Zhao State
Just when the front line turned its attention to how to deal with the Qin army, new changes took place in Qi State. This change came from diplomacy, which can also be said to be arms foreign trade.
With the large-scale refitting of the Qi army, especially the musket equipment, the arms trade demand of the Qi army continued to be strong, but the price of arms was extremely high, especially since Qin State monopolized the entire arms production, which undoubtedly stuck the neck of the Qi army. China's military production department began to develop its own muskets
However, the valve rifles produced by Qin State and more advanced rifles, Qi State’s military production started from imitation. The first rifles produced by Qi State were old-fashioned flintlock rifles.
Qi State can import black powder from Chu State on a large scale, so for them, black powder is not very lacking. On the contrary, as for bullet casings, Qi State does not have complete military production equipment and cannot mass-produce them on a large scale. They can only rely on manual reloading. Abandoned bullet casings, this kind of bullets often misfire when shooting, so soldiers are not willing to accept this kind of ammunition. For this, Qi can only do this.
However, on the other hand, Qi State did a very good job, that is, they successfully imitated the flintlock gun produced by Qin State. This gun is simple to manufacture and does not require very high bullets, so Qi State carried out a large-scale imitation of it. Most of the materials used to make guns come from the export of steel from Qin State, especially the export of steel pipes. However, Qi State also produces gun barrels, but its craftsmanship cannot be compared with that produced by Qin State.
Moreover, the production in Qi State is completely handmade, and usually requires a skilled craftsman to do three working days to complete the production of a barrel, and the heat resistance of the barrel is very poor.
However, it is quite enough for flintlock guns with a low firing rate, but as the production of flintlock guns is on the right track, a new problem is posed in front of Qi's military industry.
The problem is that what the Qi army needs is a rifle that can fire continuously, and what Qi can provide is a flintlock gun that is a grade lower than its large-scale equipment. Although the flintlock gun is a waste product, it is a weapon after all, and it was manufactured with a lot of resources and money. It is obviously not Qi's original idea to treat it as scrap iron.
So the military manufacturers in Qi State began to vigorously promote their products Qi-style flintlock guns, but when they sold their products on the market, they found that the share of valve rifles was far greater than their imagination, even if it was of the same level. Flintlock guns are produced by Qin State Machinery. She flintlock guns have strong and durable parts and are easy to replace. In particular, some rifles of flintlock guns have good versatility, while Qi-style flintlock guns cannot compete with Qin State’s military factories because they have just been released.
But there is still something that makes the people of Qi happy, that is, the merchants of Chu ordered a batch of [-] flintlock guns. This order is of great significance to the people of Qi. The merchants of Chu ordered it out of their own consideration
These Chu merchants are mainly engaged in the slave trade. To start the slave trade, the first thing to do is to build a ship, but it is expensive to build a ship. Even if several merchants unite, they can only finish it almost. Then there will be a lot of manpower and other costs. It is extremely costly, especially the cost of weapons. Qin’s trap door rifles are expensive. Although they are not very expensive when they are exported by Qin, they will be snatched by pirates when they sail through the Yangtze River. Therefore, it is very difficult to obtain such weapons. In the hands of merchants, the price is extremely high even if they are purchased from merchants in Qin and South Korea. Even if they buy, they can only buy a few rifles. These rifles are undoubtedly not enough for merchants in Chu.
