Chapter 128: 128 Tactical Course



Hadn\'t Tang Mo previously taught Tagg and several veterans from Northern Ridge some courses on artillery theory? It was these veterans who played an important role in the battle of Northern Ridge.

Under the command of these veterans, Tang Mo\'s cannons—whether in choosing positions, precise shooting, or covering fire—terrified the Suthers troops.

It could be said that the six unassuming cannons played a more significant role in the war than even Fisheo had anticipated.

After the war, those veterans who had attended the courses immediately became artillery officers in Fisheo\'s troops, and their status rose dramatically.

After hearing these veterans talk about how Tang Mo had previously trained them in cannon firing calculations and artillery tactics, Fisheo immediately became interested in this mysterious school.

Consequently, Fisheo reached an agreement with Tang Mo, sending officers to Brunas for tactical training courses with Tang Mo, while Fisheo helped gather 2,000 immigrants to help Tang Mo expand his factory once again.

In the newly built, spacious and bright classrooms—still tinged with a faint smell of paint—the conditions looked much better than those in Tang Mo\'s office.

Apart from the chimneys, this might have been the tallest building in Tang Mo\'s factory. It had three floors with six classrooms in total.

The other rooms included teacher\'s dormitories, a multi-functional dining hall, and some chemical laboratories. In this age, it was indeed a commendable architecture.

Tang Mo addressed a room full of young people, passionately lecturing, "Now, everyone, take a look at Tang\'s K1 Quick Gun. Was its creation merely a simple matter of changing the loading method?"

He picked up a K1 Quick Gun, pulled the bolt, and showed all the students the entire structure of the rifle.

Those seated below were officers from Northern Ridge, officers from the Great Tang security forces, and some of the most academically achieving students from the cadet corps.

Everyone was looking up, listening attentively to Tang Mo\'s lecture, occasionally taking notes, and the only voice in the classroom was Tang Mo\'s.

After discussing the K1 Quick Gun, Tang Mo began to introduce some new tactics, the performance improvements of the K1 Quick Gun, and a series of technological innovations that had changed the battlefield situation.

He hastily drew a square on the blackboard to represent an infantry formation and then sketched an improved long column formation used by Northern Ridge with the K1 Quick Gun, comparing the fire density: "In fact, the battlefield situation has become very complex now, and the fire density on both sides is set to increase."

"New weapons have made traditional formations ostentatious and impractical, seriously wasting the increased fire density provided by the new weapons! This needs to be discarded! It\'s also an issue we need to pay attention to in the future!" He tapped on the blackboard to emphasize the point, then returned to his desk.

At the desk, he picked up the Great Tang Group\'s latest weapon design: "This is an improved bullet created by our factory. We refer to the rifle that uses this bullet as the K3 model rifle!"

As he spoke, he demonstrated how the new weapon operated: "The K3 rifle has an improved firing pin and a magazine that can hold five bullets... It\'s a brand-new type of individual weapon that our factory is preparing to put into production."

"This weapon can provide a simpler way of attack for the soldiers, as they don\'t need to reload frequently, allowing them to remain concealed while lying on the ground." As he spoke, he put down the weapon and picked up a metal bullet from the table.

The bullet was made of brass, shiny and sleek, and despite its small size, it felt chillingly formidable in Tang Mo\'s fingers.

All present had seen bullets before and had seen many types of bullets, but they had never seen such a sharp bullet head or bullets that appeared so sturdy.

In their eyes, the bullet\'s appearance alone conveyed an impression of invincibility. No one on the battlefield would wish to be hit by such ammunition.

"Believe me, its improvements are the result of a series of advancements, starting with a full-metal cartridge case for a faster reloading process, making the bullet more safe and reliable," Tang Mo said, holding the bullet and explaining its strengths.

Everyone present in the classroom had been carefully handpicked by Earl Fisello himself, as well as being the core backbone of the Tang Group.

Tang Mo didn\'t have to worry about the secrets here being leaked, or to put it another way, he didn\'t worry about this content being leaked at all.

The students in this school, in theory, were seeds sown by Tang Mo into this world; wherever these seeds might sprout in the future, the harvest would always be his.

Make no mistake, in the not-so-distant future, Tang Mo would even intentionally let these people leave him and go to every corner of the world to establish their own careers.

And wherever they were, they would become elements influenced by Tang Mo. They would unconsciously use the knowledge system established by him and ultimately join his circle with full consent and satisfaction.

When purchasing weapons or buying equipment, they would, consciously or unconsciously, favor Tang Mo.

Moreover, in their subconscious, they would fear Tang Mo, revere him as a deity, and inherently resist any behavior that challenged him.

"Furthermore, it uses smokeless powder, which greatly increases the concealment of a soldier after firing and also clears the vision of one\'s own side," Tang Mo continued to explain, while the students below dutifully recorded and listened, their eyes filled with admiration and confidence.

They were confident that they had mastered the future; they knew that if they left this classroom and faced the fools who had not heard this lecture, they would have an absolute advantage.

Although these students weren\'t sure whether they could beat their classmates, they were certain they could defeat anyone outside this room!

So, they were proud, they were confident. What they had learned here was more than they had in the past decade, and was more useful than everything they had learned in the past decade.

Tang Mo pulled the bolt open and pointed to the simple structure inside while introducing the advantages of this new rifle, "Also, after improving the firing pin, this weapon has become more reliable, simpler, easier to maintain, and almost malfunction-free."

"Finally, with this weapon, commanders can boldly change existing tactics to achieve better combat effectiveness," he said, putting down the gun in his hand and looking at the students who were watching him.

Everyone was amazed by Tang Mo\'s new weapons, for they had previously encountered the K2 lever-action rifle in earlier classes, and now in this class, they encountered another new weapon.

What Shireck had failed to improve upon for decades, Tang Mo effortlessly brought to life in a variety of forms in his hands.

Even though the lever-action rifle had its flaws, when faced with Shireck\'s rifles, its terrifying rate of fire could shine like a beam of light, covering all its shortcomings.

Just one charge was needed to use a storm of bullets to completely collapse the enemy, which likely was the dream of almost every commander.

This truly was their dream, and some had already begun to envision in their minds how they would form regiments using these new weapons.

The attacking troops should be equipped with as many K2 lever-action rifles as possible to tear through the enemy\'s defenses with fire density. In contrast, the defending troops should be equipped with as many K3 rifles as possible to leverage the range advantage and crush the enemy\'s attacking troops in advance.

Similar combinations had more or less taken shape in many people\'s minds—they were also considering whether rifles should be divided into two functions, into attack and defense rifles, and distributed to different troops for use…

At that moment, Tang Mo\'s continued words brought these trainees back to reality, "Next, let\'s take a look at this B1-type hand grenade. It is a throwable weapon, providing close-range suppressive firepower for the infantry."

"Just pull the cord, strike the primer fuse, and this weapon can be thrown to kill the enemy," he said, picking up an unloaded model from the table and demonstrating the use of the grenade.

Then, he drew a circle on the blackboard, annotating a number on its radius, "With an explosion radius of more than 5 meters, this thing is quite dangerous. However, it can immediately take out enemies in front of you, making it a very effective attack or defense weapon."

Just one precise throw could kill swathes of enemies in front of them; despite the throwing range being less than 30 meters, this weapon was clearly another means to counter the enemy\'s group charges.

Looking at this new weapon, virtually all the officers took notes, recognizing the hand grenade as an advanced weapon to be added to the procurement list for their future troop composition.

"Firstly, with the emergence of new weapons, we need to change our existing tactics for both offensive and defensive operations," Tang Mo continued, drawing a U-shape on the blackboard to represent the side of a trench, "Defense has become easier to effect and requires prearranged setups; our soldiers need better concealment in the face of enemy fire, rather than foolishly standing in the open waiting to be killed."
