Chapter 309 This time, no high technology
After seeing off the comrades from the Prairie Tractor Factory, Gao Zhendong made another call, this time to the Institute of Communications. For this kind of unit, there is no need to ask for a postal mail. The leader of the Communications Committee became the operator.
Gao Zhendong has already reviewed and sent back the project "Telegraph Data Communication Machine" cooperated with the Postal and Communications Commission. The Postal and Communications Commission has approved it, and it has been officially drafted by the 17th Machinery Department. This matter is clarified procedurally.
Gao Zhendong is still the leader, and Gao Zhendong doesn’t want to be. After all, he is not prepared to invest time in this matter, and there is no need to invest any time. Everything is ready-made.
But all the technology comes from Gao Zhendong. If he were not the leader, the Communications Institute would feel that this project was a bit unreliable.
But he doesn't need to worry about the specific matters. The Institute of Communications will handle it by itself. Gao Zhendong only needs to sign.
After receiving the news, the Communications Institute immediately led a team led by Chief Engineer Feng and rushed over at a lightning speed. This matter cannot be delayed. After passing this village, I don’t know how long it will take to wait for the next store. .
They all know the grand scene of the DJS-60D ventilation meeting. The units that are eyeing this thing are not just one family or two. Even if they know that Director Gao is the leader of this project, they still have to go first. It's better to be safe. There are more than one or two projects led by Director Gao. God knows if there will be internal interceptions.
Looking at the two circuit boards that were glowing green, clean, and seemed to be leaking oil, Mr. Feng was filled with joy, full of the joy that people would often say in the future, "This year's KPI was completed ahead of schedule."
In the current environment, it is an absolutely advanced and innovative achievement. All technical issues have been put on the shelf, just waiting for integration. If this year's KPI cannot be achieved, the Institute of Communications will be closed down as soon as possible.
After seeing off Chief Engineer Feng, who was full of thanks and promised progress repeatedly, Gao Zhendong breathed a sigh of relief. With eight boards, plus the two he kept, the spoils were divided, and it was finally settled.
After he relaxed, he picked up the "Daily" and read it. This sight made him frown.
A certain page of the newspaper reported that we made solemn representations and protests to Zang San, who has been making small moves on the western plateau border, and asked the other party to stop intruding on our border.
After seeing this report, Gao Zhendong thought for a while. As a senior military fan in his previous life, he remembered it very clearly. It was still early and the real action would be more than two years later.
Looking at the wording of the report, there are no words familiar to the majority of military fans such as "stopping from the brink", "what is tolerable or intolerable", and "don't say it was unforeseen".
It was still early, and Zang San could still bounce around for a while. It was obvious that his butterfly wings had changed some things, but things like this involving dangerous wars between countries, should not have changed much.
Putting down the newspaper, Gao Zhendong could not calm down.
He began to carefully search his mind for every bit of memory about that self-defense counterattack. There were still two years left.
There is no need to think about things like Zhuge Liang in advance. Let alone whether anyone believes it. The battlefield is changing rapidly, so it can be said that it is basically useless.
But what Gao Zhendong knows is that there are casualties in battles. Apart from the unforeseen and inevitable parts, the biggest casualties come from the process of attacking fortified points.
You must know that we are taking the initiative to remove one by one the defenses that Zangsan has run for many years, especially some of them are systematic and strong permanent fortifications, and the opponent occupies almost all favorable terrain.
The front with the greatest casualties was in the southern part of the plateau. Zang San was backed by a defensive position that had been in operation for many years, waiting for work. The terrain was completely dominant, and our side was forced to forcibly advance point by point.
I have to say that under such conditions, the enemy was able to fight the war like that. It is no wonder that this side never looked down upon them.
A typical example is that on November 14th, at position No. 06 of Walong, an enemy battalion attacked a company of our army from top to bottom using superior terrain. At the same time, another enemy battalion came from bottom to bottom. They cooperated with our army from both sides and attacked our army from both sides. The final result was that instead of taking the position in 6 hours, our army counterattacked more than 1,000 meters from bottom to top. They could only hold on to Highland 07. In the end, their 11th Brigade It was divided into dumplings.
Having said that, the sacrifice of our soldiers is real. Again, it is not cost-effective to exchange the lives of our soldiers for the lives of the enemy, no matter how high the battle loss ratio is. Not cost-effective either.
People always die in war, but can we sacrifice less?
Gao Zhendong fell into deep thought.
Since the greatest casualties come from attacking fortresses, can we give our soldiers more convenient weapons so that they can complete the mission more smoothly?
It is impossible without sacrifice, but it should still be possible if you sacrifice less.
Anti-tank missile? It's probably quite expensive. No matter how cheap it is, the price of this thing is not low at this time. How much it can be equipped with is a question.
Not to mention anti-tank missiles, as far as Gao Zhendong knew, it was not uncommon to see relatively primitive attack weapons such as explosive packs and blasting tubes used in this battle.
75mm recoilless rifles are not without them, but their quantity, weight, and terrain severely limit their use. In order to give full play to their firepower and support infantry operations, our 75mm shooters even came up with a "recoilless rifle mounted on a tree" It's such a hassle, but after all, this method is not applicable everywhere.
Zang San can resist with all kinds of pre-aimed firepower in the fortifications that have been built long ago, but we have to charge against the enemy's strong fortress in an unfamiliar area. In this case, The 75 points in the establishment are either not enough or difficult to keep up with. As for weapons such as mortars, it is difficult to provide infantry with direct firepower. To put it simply, when dealing with various hard targets that suddenly fire in battle, they are neither accurate nor timely enough.
The flamethrower is a good thing, but the range is limited, and there is a risk of the oil being frozen in alpine areas.
As for bigger cannons, don't even think about it. The terrain, combined with the logistics and transportation capabilities at this time, can't make up a few. At that time, we withdrew our troops immediately after the attack, not because we did not want to occupy it, but because we simply had no conditions.
In addition to anti-tank missiles, what else?
The key problem is that this thing cannot try to change the existing firepower organization, because that action is too big and difficult to achieve in the short term. That is already It involves the scope of the military system.
Gao Zhendong thought for a while, his eyes lit up, he had it.
I blame myself for always focusing on high-tech equipment and main battle equipment, but I forgot that there is a small thing that is actually more suitable than anything else.
Speaking of which, this thing is not very high-tech, but it is really suitable for this situation, and the most important thing is that this thing can actually be used as a secondary anti-tank missile that I am currently developing with Changjian Machinery Factory. Product, because everything it uses is available on anti-tank missiles.
Another advantage is that if this thing is really developed, it will be done for the sake of cheapness, but when it comes to the effect, it is really not bad.
And once it is finalized, the production volume can explode immediately, and it is time- and cost-effective, because it is not a high-tech equipment, and the training is simple. Even if you are a cook, you will be able to use it after learning it.
No, this is an underestimation of cooks, especially the cooks of our army.
Even if there is a health worker, it would not be wrong. Our health workers are equally good at this battle, the kind who can lead the soldiers to block the attack.
Forget it, in short, just come to anyone and you can use it with practice.
The thing that Gao Zhendong thought of was a "tube" that he was familiar with in his previous life and could even be used by everyone - the PF89 disposable rocket launcher.
Of course it won’t be a complete copy, but overall it won’t be too far off.
The origin of PF89 can be traced back to the Citigroup M72 disposable rocket launcher captured by the Cochin people on the battlefield in the mid-1960s. Based on its concept (and only the concept), we developed the 70-type 62mm rocket launcher. But this thing is not really disposable, and it has a small caliber and low power, and it is not equipped with too many equipment. Then it was slowly developed into the PF-89.
A range of hundreds of meters, sufficient power, pretty good accuracy, weight of less than 4 kilograms, length of less than one meter, cheap price, does not occupy the establishment, can be used as soon as it is issued. Not to mention one per person, if two people bring one, there are 5 in one class!
It is perfectly suitable to be used in this counterattack. It does not occupy the establishment, which means that as long as it is produced, it can be sent to the troops in the name of trial. It can be used directly without the troops changing their firepower organization.
Don’t underestimate this, it can save a lot of process problems.
Although this thing was originally an armor-piercing warhead, it is not difficult at all to change it to a killing-deflagration warhead or an assault warhead. Moreover, its developmental type originally had an armor-piercing, destructive and incendiary warhead. In short, it is , this thing works well.
To be honest, with its armor-breaking power of 180mm/65 degrees, even 9 years later, it will not be impossible to defeat Lao Maozi's tanks in the Northeast.
However, judging from Gao Zhendong's current achievements and plans, it is estimated that he will not be the main force fighting tanks by then.
Gao Zhendong was excited and did what he said. He picked up the phone and made a call.
There is no need to worry about warheads or rocket engines. Just follow the anti-tank missile. Although the caliber of the anti-tank missile is larger than it, in the process of developing a large-caliber one, a small-caliber one is needed. It's also very reasonable.
What Gao Zhendong wants to solve with this call is the problem of cheapness.
The first thing to do with a rocket launcher is to be cheap, because its output will be large.
How large is our rocket launcher output? We have a type of rocket. Due to a defective charge, it is easy to corrode the projectile body and cause misfire. After discovering the problem, we investigated one by one and proactively scrapped a batch of rockets.
How much is this "batch"?
——10,000,000 rounds!
So, if a small country fights a modern war against a big country, especially against a big industrial country, regardless of diplomatic factors, there is basically no hope of winning, and everyone will pile you up.
