    ??

    "Reduce the rate of fire of weapons and increase damage of weapons? Isn't this just changing the assault rifle back to an old-fashioned rifle?" Listening to Chen Xin's explanation of his ideas, the political cadres he brought to the discussion couldn't help but think of old-fashioned rifles.

    Hearing what the political cadre said, Chen Xin actually laughed: "This is normal. The war between us and alien creatures now is just like trench warfare on the battlefield of World War I? It's just that our fighting is fierce.  The intensity was far more intense than World War I. Both the steel delivered and the materials consumed were far more than the two world wars combined.

    do you know?  Nowadays, huge amounts of materials and ammunition are consumed on the front line every day. Just for the defense line I inspected last time, their three battalions destroyed one ton of ammunition an hour on average. This is just the consumption of ordinary soldiers.

    As for the ammunition consumed by explosives and rear artillery support, although it is not that much, it is not much less. The ammunition consumed by the entire defense line at every moment can only be calculated in units of 10,000 tons.

    So even if I just reduce the rate of fire of the rifle by one round per minute, the amount of ammunition I can save is an extremely huge number.  "

    "But having said that, the workload of replacing the entire frontline equipment is too large, and the investment will not be small at all." The political cadre only made a slight estimate and understood that this was by no means an easy task to be completed.  .

    Chen Xin also agreed with this. He nodded and said: "So I don't intend to solve the problem all at once, and isn't things like changing equipment done step by step? Even during World War II, new equipment from various countries emerged one after another.  Aren¡¯t there many weapons developed in the middle of the war that can¡¯t be generally equipped with troops until the later stage or even near the end of the war?¡±

    Hearing what Chen Xin said, the political cadre nodded with confidence. Although he did not have the power to stop Chen Xin, he could still dissuade Chen Xin from any random thoughts he might have.

    Since Chen Xin has no random thoughts, he will naturally not talk too much.

    "What are you going to do, Academician Chen? Do you have any specific plans?" the political cadre asked Chen Xin curiously.

    Chen Xin thought for a while and said: "I don't have any good ideas in a short period of time. I plan to start with the electromagnetic rifles that we are equipping troops in European countries. This is a weapon that is being replaced, and the effect can be seen more intuitively.  "

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    A small land carrier carrying supplies gradually landed, and the officers on the ground who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly led people to greet it.

    As the hatch of the land speeder opened, several Yanguo staff members walked down from it.

    "Hello, I am Major Marvin, the commander of the xx stronghold of the xxx line of defense. I have been ordered to come to receive the supplies." The officer took out a document from his body and handed it to the Yanguo staff and explained to him,  The attitude was very respectful, even a little bit flattering.

    No wonder Major Marvin has such an attitude, because his troops are stationed in a remote location. So far, his troops are still using the old equipment and have not enjoyed the benefits of replacing the new equipment provided by Yan Guo.

    This time it was finally his troops¡¯ turn to receive supplies and install new equipment. Major Marvin was very excited. Naturally, he also wanted to please the staff of Yan State and strive for better benefits for his troops.

    Although it is not his turn to replace the equipment provided by the Yan Kingdom, Major Ma Wen has already heard that the Yan Kingdom people will provide better weapons and equipment and better logistics supplies. If he can get more supplies from them, what else can he do?  It is said that his attitude is to please, even if Major Marvin is asked to call the Yanguo man in front of him his father, he will not refuse.

    Of course, the Yanguo staff did not have a special hobby of asking people to call them daddy. After taking the certification documents handed over by Major Marvin and checking them with the list in his hand to confirm that they were correct, the staff member asked people to start  Moving supplies.

    "According to the numbers on the list, the equipment is a total of three battalions of electromagnetic rifles and exoskeletons, as well as a platoon of power armor and a company of new high-level dual-purpose guns." The staff showed the list to Major Marvin.  , and explained the quantity of supplies to him: "You can get two basic amounts of ammunition, as well as a regiment's standard one-week standard supply of supplies. I won't read out the specific contents. You can look at the list yourself. Everything is  It¡¯s packed, you can count the quantity.¡±

    Hearing what the staff said, Major Marvin said thank you and hurriedly asked the people he brought over to help count the quantity of the supplies, while he stayed with the staff, hoping to get closer to each other.

    ¡°This batch of electromagnetic rifles is a new model, with greater firing power than the previous ones.The ?? number has been improved, and like the previous model, it is compatible with the NATO standard ammunition you are currently equipped with. However, because this type of electromagnetic rifle has reduced the rate of fire, it is still recommended to use it with the new ammunition issued.  "The staff didn't pay much attention to Major Marvin's relationship-building behavior, but they still explained the equipment to him.

    Major Marvin heard that the rate of fire of this type of electromagnetic rifle had been lowered, but he didn¡¯t think there was anything wrong. He even thought it was a good thing.

    Because his troops have not been re-equipped for a long time, and the location where they are stationed is relatively remote from the supply point, supplies often fail to be delivered in time, so Major Marvin is particularly concerned about the consumption of ammunition.

    In fact, even if the battle was very fierce, in order to save ammunition, Major Marvin's troops fought with three consecutive bursts of fire as much as possible, instead of holding the trigger and not letting go, finishing one magazine directly.

    After all, it¡¯s great to pull the trigger and empty the magazine directly, and the killing effect is also very good, but this consumes too much ammunition.

    For troops like Major Marvin¡¯s troops, whose logistical supplies may not always be delivered on time, every bullet needs to be saved.

    So regarding the rate of fire of the electromagnetic rifle, Major Marvin thinks this is good.

    "What is the rate of fire of this electromagnetic rifle?" Major Marvin asked curiously. According to his estimation, in fact, a rate of fire of 300 to 400 rounds per minute is a relatively ideal rate of fire.  , which can not only ensure firepower, but also reduce ammunition consumption to a more acceptable level.

    The answer given by the staff did not exceed Major Marvin's expectations: "This electromagnetic rifle has a firing rate of 350 rounds per minute. It has three shooting modes, single shot, three consecutive shots and continuous shots. The magazine can hold 40 rounds."  Bullets." (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
