“Fourth point.”

Yuan Lang glanced at Chu Yunfei, and it was a slap in the face when he said this.

"In fact, the Chinese people overestimated the role of the big sword in hand-to-hand combat, which has a certain relationship with the propaganda in the early stages of the War of Resistance.

During the Rehe War, the "Xifengkou Victory" of the 29th Army's Big Sword Team attacked the Japanese position at night was actually a tragic victory that killed one thousand enemies and suffered 800 of them.

However, under the propaganda policy of the National Government's "morality can be boosted but not released", it has been unlimitedly raised and has reached the height of "serving the country with a big sword".

The military and civilians in the rear had unrealistic expectations for the role of the big sword in the war, and they even created a farce of donating money to create a big sword to send it to the front line.

The front-line troops were hard to refuse, and they could not refuse, so they could only accept them and then abandon them.

Is the big sword useful? If you don’t have a handy weapon, you can of course use the big sword. But if you have the conditions, even if you have a spear, it is easier to get started than the big sword.

It is an irrational behavior to blindly advocate the great sword."

These words put Chu Yunfei and Li Yunlong in.

Chu Yunfei also said before that the 29th Army's Big Sword Team is so powerful, so the Big Sword is powerful.

Now that Yuan Lang said this, his face was a little uneasy.

Chu Yunfei explained: "There is no way to promote policies. The country is poor and weak, and the Chinese people lack confidence. If you win a battle, you will naturally have to promote it. This is undoubtedly true.

What you said makes sense about the advantages of bayonets over big swords. But I still have a question. Since big swords are not as good as bayonets, why does the 29th Army still have to form a big sword team?

Your army also has many troops, and has formed a team similar to the Big Sword Team. Why is that?"

It’s still the cultural person who can say that although Li Yunlong can’t speak for outsiders, it depends on Yuan Lang’s explanation.

If you can't say it, it's that big swords are better than bayonets.

Yuan Lang smiled bitterly, "Why are we equipped with big swords? It's because we are an agricultural country and our industry is too underdeveloped.

Whether it is the Twenty-Ninth Army or the Eighth Route Army now, many of them are equipped with big swords as fighting weapons. They do not think big swords are good.

Instead, bayonets are difficult to make, and require better steel, and the requirements for machining and heat treatment are also relatively high.

This is why our army's rifle bayonets are often damaged and cannot be supplemented after being damaged.

On the contrary, the large knife has low requirements for steel, so it can be made by hand-made ironworking, and it is easy to supplement in quantity.

Having weapons is better than not having weapons, and no big sword can kill the enemy no matter how hard it is."

The sorrow of agricultural countries meeting industrial countries is that even qualified bayonets are difficult to create, and they have to use a big knife... What else is more frustrating than this?

Li Yunlong said nothing after hearing this, and he knew that this was indeed the truth.

However, since the arsenal was established, some machinery have been collected one after another, and the steel rails that pry railways have also solved the steel problem, and the Eighth Route Army can also produce bayonets.

It may not be as good as the Japanese, but there is still one, and it can be used.

Even if production conditions are limited and the quantity of production is limited, each unit needs to line up if it wants to get bayonets.

As for the Central Army, after the Battle of Shanghai and the Great Wall War, it also discovered that the Japanese bayonet skills were difficult to deal with.

Therefore, in the three or five years of formal rifles, special attention is paid to the use of bayonets and increase the length, in order to compete with Japanese Type 38 rifles during hand-to-hand combat.

Many bayonets have been produced in recent years and have successively equipped the Central Army units.

Of course, the Chairman did not want to shoot the Eighth Route Army at a time, and this bayonet was certainly not as good as the Eighth Route Army.

All the questions were explained, and Chu Yunfei had to admit that his view at the beginning might be wrong.

Chu Yunfei raised his attention to Yuan Lang, who was clear and meticulously studying the advantages and disadvantages of big swords and bayonets.

Zhao Gang saw that the matter had been concluded, so it was not easy for friendly guests to come out of Taiwan, so he came out to smooth things out: "

In fact, big swords and bayonets have their own advantages and disadvantages as weapons. Weapons are important factors in war, but not decisive factors. The decisive factor is people, not objects.

No matter how good the weapon is, it depends on who is holding it. A hero is the sword that kills the enemy, while a coward is at best, just killing a chicken and chopping meat.

As the trump card of Commander Chu, the 358th Regiment of Commander Yan, cannot be controlled by a hero!”

If Chu Yunfei doesn't have some ability, he will not be able to sit firmly in the 358th Route.

Zhao Gang's ability to praise people has really not fallen behind, so he praised it directly to the point.

Chu Yunfei's expression was not obvious. Captain Sun Ming, who was following him, had a proud look on his face, as if he was saying: You are right, our Captain Chu is a hero.

"It's too much." Chu Yunfei did not feel gloomy because of some praise.

On the contrary, he thought that he had no praise for his firm position as the leader of the 358th Regiment.

That's what he should have done.

He saw his confidant from Zhao Gang's words: "What Political Commissar Zhao said is very reasonable, and the people who take weapons are the decisive factor in the war.

Whenever you encounter an enemy, you will draw your sword, and blood will splatter seven steps. Either you die or I die!

A soldier with such courage can kill the enemy no matter what kind of weapon he holds."

The meaning of the words is meaningful.

To put it bluntly, the country is poor and weak, and whether it is weapons or material supplies, it is far from comparable to the Japanese army.

But even in this case, soldiers must take up weapons and fight the invaders to the death, even if the blood splatters seven steps and drains the last drop of blood.

To put it bluntly, Chu Yunfei first met Li Yunlong, which was the battle at Cangyunling.

The new group was extremely weak and surrounded by the powerful Sakata United team.

Chu Yunfei thought that this Eighth Route Army was going to be over, but he didn't expect Li Yunlong to make a decision.

Just like a swordsman who is not as good as an enemy's martial arts, he draws out his sword and fights against a powerful enemy head-on.

What's important is that you win.

This kind of brave and fearless spirit is what Chu Yunfei admires the most.

At that time, he thought about meeting the commander one day to see what kind of person this person was.

I finally saw him today, and it should be said that Li Yunlong is a character.

Yuan Lang continued Chu Yunfei's words: "To train the courage and courage of soldiers, the best way is to fight a hand-to-hand battle.

The most effective way to test a strong army is to see if he dares to launch hand-to-hand combat against the enemy and defeat him.

A soldier who is afraid of bayonets is not a qualified soldier."

Li Yunlong looked at Yuan Lang, his eyes full of questions: Is this appropriate for you, a guy who doesn’t hold a bayonet and fights with the enemy?

He often takes the lead in charge and fights with the enemy in close combat. It is obviously more appropriate to say this!

Of course, he agreed with Yuan Lang's statement very much.

"Hand-hand combat is a battlefield for testing a soldier's quality. A coward will only be despised, and only a brave and fearless person will be praised.

Face to face the enemy, bayonets against bayonets, fighting to the death. If a warrior dares to show the bayonet, it will be in vain for the name of a warrior."

It is rare for everyone to reach an agreement on this point.

The difference between hand-to-hand combat and ordinary combat mode lies in its huge impact on the soldiers' psychology.

Remotely controlled the drone several miles away, pressed a button to kill people, and snipers could see clearly from hundreds of meters away, and shot the enemy with bayonets facing each other.

The psychological impact of the three on soldiers on the battlefield is completely different.

In the cruel hand-to-hand combat, the soldiers could clearly see the opponent's hideous face, the blood sprayed out, and the intestines flowing out from the wounds on the abdomen.

Hearing the roars and screams of the enemies and comrades, as well as the despair of the dying person.

Under this huge psychological pressure, soldiers on the side with low training level and poor psychological quality are likely to collapse in hand-to-hand combat.

Therefore, the casualties caused by hand-to-hand combat are one aspect, and more importantly, the psychological trauma to the soldiers is very huge.

In hand-to-hand combat, the defeated soldiers who escape may leave a psychological shadow and are unwilling to get involved in hand-to-hand combat in the next battle, or simply escape before the hand-to-hand combat begins.

Therefore, hand-to-hand combat has a huge effect on hitting the opponent's morale, which is much more valuable than causing casualties.

The Japanese army attached importance to hand-to-hand combat, and there were also factors in this regard.
