Now that he had the manpower, Wang Xuan naturally intended to make full use of them. Equipping these battle-hardened men with nothing more than machetes would be a terrible waste.
Although he could not obtain a complete set of special forces equipment, basic gear was still no problem.
Apart from Zhang Zhi, the people at Wang Xuan's side included the old platoon leader, Qi Qian, and Fatty. After discussing matters with them, they settled on the details of the equipment they needed.
Kukri knife: its proper name was a Gurkha knife.
Taurus PT92 pistol: a semi-automatic pistol with a single- and double-action trigger (SADA), a detachable double-stack magazine, and a short-recoil operating system. It fired 9×19 mm and .40 S&W pistol rounds.
Type 56 semi-automatic rifle: overall length: 1,025 mm; unloaded weight: 3.85 kg; barrel length: 521 mm; rifling: four grooves, right-hand twist; magazine capacity: 10 rounds; ammunition: Type 56 7.62 mm cartridges; muzzle velocity: 735 m/s; effective range: 400 m; maximum range: 1,500 m.
SVD sniper rifle: China's copies of the SVD were the Type 79 sniper rifle, finalized in 1979, and its improved version, the Type 85 sniper rifle. Overall length: 1,220 mm; barrel length: 620 mm; ammunition: 7.62 mm rifle rounds; magazine capacity: 10 rounds; muzzle velocity: 828 m/s; scope: PSO-1; iron sights: 1,200 m; night-vision scope: 300 m; effective range: 800 m; maximum lethal range: 1,300 m.
Of course, all of that was the ideal scenario. In reality, the only thing Wang Xuan was certain he could obtain was the Kukri knife. He did not even know where to get a Type 92 pistol, so he would have to ask Baki for help.
He gave the big shot so much money every month. That money could not be spent for nothing.
For that reason, Wang Xuan
