Although the new slow-fire electromagnetic rifle was quickly issued to the
army, and it quickly reduced the consumption of ammunition, for Chen Xin, he
would obviously not be satisfied with it.
The bullets that can be saved by electromagnetic rifles that reduce the rate
of fire are mainly those that are shot out without letting go of the trigger.
For example, some elite veterans or soldiers with sufficient experience will
adjust the rate of fire to three bursts. , In order to save ammunition.
So although the huge base number has allowed the new electromagnetic rifle to
quickly reduce ammunition consumption after it is installed, in general, this
part of the reduction accounts for not much of the overall logistics
consumption.
Compared with the entire line of defense, which requires tens of thousands of
tons of ammunition to be shot out every minute, saving one or two rounds of
ammunition each time it fires is indeed not so eye-catching.
So Chen Xin quickly turned his attention to other aspects.
In addition to the electromagnetic rifle, what Chen Xin pays most attention to
is the anti-aircraft gun, or high-level dual-purpose gun, which is widely used
on the front line.
This small-caliber rapid-fire gun was originally used for air defense, but
after being flattened in World War II, it was used to fight infantry and
destroy vehicles such as tanks and achieved good results. Therefore, this
weapon was also designed into A style that can attack the ground.
When this weapon is in the air, it mainly relies on the high rate of fire to
form a barrage to block the aircraft. Because the barrage needs to be formed,
the natural rate of fire must be fast.
Especially with the advancement of modern military technology, the anti-
aircraft guns are basically out of reach when the jets fly higher and higher,
so they are more used to shoot drones and ground-attack missiles.
Therefore, the rate of fire is required to be higher and higher.
In the past, this was naturally a very correct way of thinking, but now it is
a bit wasteful.
After all, you can destroy an enemy with three or five shells. As a result,
because the rate of fire is too fast, you can shoot out more than ten or
twenty shells at once, which is completely overactive.
Although there is no gap when the aliens attack, even if they keep shooting in
one direction with their eyes closed, they can continue to destroy the enemy,
but the excessively high rate of fire will still hit the same target multiple
times, causing firepower. excess.
And these high-level dual-purpose guns were the main weapons capable of
effectively killing alien creatures on the battlefield before the aid of Yan
Nation arrived. Therefore, a large number of these weapons were deployed on
the entire line of defense. They used small-caliber artillery shells. It is
also the bulk of ammunition consumption.
If this part of the consumption can be suppressed, Chen Xin believes that it
will be very meaningful for reducing logistical pressure and reducing resource
consumption.
Just when Chen Xin started to try this, news came from China, and the senior
management ordered him to end his work in Europe and return to China as soon
as possible.
"What happened, why do I suddenly have to return home in China?" Chen Xin
frowned when facing the political cadres who had come to inform him.
"Academician Chen, you have been in Europe for almost a year, and the domestic
side has always had the idea of letting you return to China." Facing Chen
Xin's inquiry, the political cadre quickly explained to him: "This time the
country hopes you will return to China as soon as possible. It is because the
military has entered the stage of a full-scale counteroffensive, and the
country needs you, so you will be allowed to return home as soon as possible."
The reasons stated by the political cadres are of course very reasonable.
After all, Chen Xin still has a lot of work in China, and his long stay in
Europe has delayed many of his work in China.
If it were not for the fact that the war situation in Europe has not
stabilized, the country would have long wanted to transfer Chen Xin back.
Now the situation in Europe has gradually improved, and everything has
stabilized. Although it is still far from the situation where the domestic
counterattack is already possible, what the domestic thinking is at first is
to allow Europe to maintain the line of defense. It will not completely
collapse.
Even when Chen Xinlai was at that time, both China and Lucia were constructing
the Eastern European defense line. What prevented it was that after the
collapse of Europe, it was able to continue to resist the attacks of alien
creatures.
Chen Xin came to Europe at that time, and the minimum goal given to him in
China was to support the European defense line at least until the construction
of the Eastern European defense line was completed.
Now, Chen Xin has overfulfilled the task. Not only has the European Defense
Line persisted until the construction of the Eastern European Defense Line is
completed, but also the entire European order is stabilized. The situation has
improved in all aspects, and the defense line has also turned from precarious
to secure.
In the absence of accidents, there is no fear that there will be a total
crash.
Even the Black Sea area, which Chen Xin had been worried about before, has now
established a solid line of defense, preventing alien creatures from breaking
through here.
Even in the European aid fleet, a large amount of materials will be shipped
back to China every week, which has increased the number of three cargo land
cruisers on this route to seven, which is almost the density of one shift per
day.
So it is not very strange that the domestic side recalled Chen Xin at this
time.
But Chen Xin still heard some problems from the words of the political cadres,
so he asked the political cadres: "Is there something wrong with the domestic
counterattack?"
This is what Chen Xin has been worried about.
Chen Xin has been paying attention to this matter since he learned that the
domestic counter-offensive was launched. Although he has not received any
information about major problems, there are indeed problems caused by poor
offensive and insufficient preparation during the counter-offensive. Small
problems such as unnecessary losses.
Chen Xin is not very worried about these small problems. Since the country is
preparing to counterattack, naturally it has made plans for these problems. U

Furthermore, in terms of Yan Nation's current strength, these small problems
are within the range that the country can bear.
Exposing the problem will help solve the problem, make timely adjustments, and
avoid bigger problems.
But this does not mean that there are no other hidden dangers.
Know that the biggest problem with alien creatures is that they are hidden
deep underground, and what appears on the ground is nothing but cannon fodder
that is not important to them.
It is indeed not difficult for humans to clear the alien creatures on the
ground, but if we want to completely eliminate the threat posed by these alien
creatures and eradicate them, we must fight deeply underground.
This part is where Chen Xin worries the most, because humans have not really
designed weapons for use in underground caves so far.
And there is no experience in conducting large-scale operations in this
environment.
Whether we can achieve the desired result is a very unknown thing.
It was also out of worry about this. After thinking for a while, Chen Xin
still handed over the work on hand, and then left for China.
