They had to be careful with their choices because these guys had fewer bullets and artillery shells. Once they were used up, there would be no place to restock. Once they were used up, they would become scrap metal.
Furthermore, French weapons and Japanese weapons were different in terms of caliber, range, and firepower. Not only were they troublesome to use, but they were also complicated to maintain. Before the monkeys could figure out whether to use them or not, the Americans entered the fray!
This time, they provided more and more complicated toys. Not only were there guns and cannons, but there were also cars, airplanes, warships, submarines, and other difficult toys! The ones who were most excited about the new weapons were the 17th City Defense Division and the Special Mixed Forces Brigade. The 17th City Defense Division mostly used the French semi-automatic rifles, 47mm French repeating steel cannons, Japanese grenades, and M60 machine guns left behind by the French when they retreated.
The Special Mixed Forces Brigade used French submachine guns, Japanese grenades, grenades, and flamethrowers. It wasn't that I didn't give them American-style equipment. However, most of their officers abandoned the weapons in the warehouse after they received them.
Their officers believed that the best way to use weapons was to achieve the best results in battle. American-style weapons were good in terms of firepower and range, but it wasn't an easy task for the short soldiers. Many of our soldiers didn't go to school and weren't physically fit.
Compared to the Europeans and Americans, it was more difficult to use American-style weapons, especially the M14 rifle. Many soldiers felt that the M14 was big and clumsy. Although it fired fast, it was too long and heavy. As a light machine gun, it wasn't worth it because there were too few bullets.
If it was a new soldier, they could finish it in two or three hits. The M60 had enough bullets, but it was too heavy. Patrolling with a machine gun and a full body full of bullets, including grenades, would be as tiring as a dog.
The training of cannons, armored vehicles, airplanes, warships, and submarines wasn't progressing quickly either. As far as I knew, the cannons had already fired more than 3000 rounds, but their accuracy was average and their coordination wasn't good. As for the training of other high-tech equipment, it was moving at a snail's pace.
Alright, I don't want to listen to your nonsense anymore. Tell me the truth. How many combat troops can you give me?
Li Xiucai's expression was unnatural when faced with the president's question. He thought for a while and decided to tell the truth. There were about 50,000 combat troops. Excluding the cannon fodder, there were only slightly more than 20,000 combat troops. Why are there so few of them? Can't you order more? Hearing this, the president was a little anxious. Little Brother, we're a family, so we have to say what we want. I'm sure I won't say those words to you. If it was for external publicity, then I would definitely exaggerate and say something irrelevant!
For example, with the support of the American military, the strict guidance of the American instructors, and the hard work of our soldiers, the NY Army now has 300,000 soldiers, 100,000 soldiers, and 50,000 soldiers. These troops will support and defend our sacred country. This kind of pleasant-sounding but deceptive words can make outsiders think that we already have a mighty army of a hundred battles.
