Double-Cut During the War of Resistance: My Wife Came from 1937

Just when Ma Hongwei and Xia Weiwei thought the video was about to end.

Da Mao started testing again, explaining, "Next up is the 5.45*39mm BS armor-piercing round. In the last video, only the 6B45 body armor stopped it."

"China's bulletproof plates have already completed today's testing; this is just an additional test. Let's wait and see!"

"Bang! Bang!"

After two more shots, Da Mao said, "From the surface, there are no bullet marks."

After removing the left-side panel, Da Mao exclaimed in shock, "I am truly amazed by the impact resistance of the Chinese bulletproof plate. You know, this plate has already been hit by many bullets."

"But it still managed to stop the BS armor-piercing rounds, which is far beyond the standard!"

Immediately, Da Mao said with a regretful expression, "It's a pity that the right-side bulletproof plate, which I prefer, has been penetrated."

"Okay, I know some people will say this experiment wasn't rigorous enough. The ceramic inside has broken by now, so I'll bring out two brand new boards next."

"My friends, this time you have no excuses or objections!"

"Take a guess, if it were a brand new plate, could it stop a BS armor-piercing round?"

"Two Chinese bulletproof plates are about to face off in a fateful showdown. Who will emerge victorious?"

"Bang! Bang!"

After the two shots, Da Mao put the two bulletproof plates together and said, "The moment to witness a miracle is about to arrive."

As he spoke, he flipped the board over on the left and said, "It didn't go through!"

The board on the right was not penetrated even after being flipped over.

"They not only stopped the BS armor-piercing rounds, but also showed very little deformation on the back, with almost no abnormalities. That's the power of the new plates."

"Both of China's bulletproof plates are really cheap!"

"But hold on, I also have a very stylish PKM machine gun here!"

"The 7.62x54mm bullet is larger than the 7.62x51mm bullet. Let's see what kind of damage the PKM can do to these two plates?"

"I'll fire a shot at each of these plates; if they can stop it, then they're the best bulletproof plates!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Hongwei and Xia Weiwei both held their breath.

Because they all knew that the PKM was a general-purpose machine gun.

Whether light or heavy, machine guns are far more powerful than rifles, and the same is true for general-purpose machine guns.

Da Mao picked up a PKM machine gun and introduced it, saying, "PKM general-purpose machine gun, 7.62*54mmR rounds. Let me shoot it standing up as a sign of respect!"

As he spoke, he held the PKM and fired two shots at the bulletproof plate.

"Da da! Da da!"

After firing the gun, he put the PKM on the ground and faced the camera, saying, "I originally only wanted to fire one shot, but the machine gun doesn't have a single-shot mode. I don't use this much, so I can't manually fire just one shot."

"Oh, this board has been knocked off."

Da Mao picked up a piece of board and said, "I used a PKM general-purpose machine gun at a distance of over 50 meters, firing powerful 7.62*54mmR rounds, and I still couldn't penetrate China's bulletproof plate!"

Holy crap!

Upon seeing this, Ma Hongwei couldn't help but swear.

You know, that was a machine gun!

Even at a distance of 50 meters, the machine gun couldn't penetrate the bulletproof plate worth 300 RMB.

That's 300 RMB, not 300 USD.

300 yuan can save your life, which is absolutely worth it.

Ma Hongwei couldn't help but exclaim, "They're cheap and practical! No wonder some American and Russian soldiers choose to buy Chinese bulletproof vests at their own expense!"

"The result is obvious and there is absolutely no room for doubt."

Da Mao laughed and said, "While luck can sometimes come in handy, wearing better bulletproof plates gives you a much greater chance of survival, Harasho!"

"You should take my advice, my friend. Go buy them right away, insert them into your bulletproof vest, and put them on immediately. They will definitely save your life on the battlefield. Each plate weighs only 1.8 kilograms, and two plates weigh less than 8 kilograms."

"They didn't give me any compensation here. I bought all the test boards myself, and I don't even know which factory produced them."

"Alright, now let's cut open the outer layer and see what's inside that can withstand today's additional test!"

When Da Mao opened it, Ma Hongwei and Xia Weiwei saw that inside were square ceramic blocks, one next to the other.

He found some bullets inside the ceramic shards.

"Oh, right!"

Da Mao said, "What I just used were 5.45*39 mm BS armor-piercing rounds and 7.62*54 mm armor-piercing incendiary rounds, but they were all blocked."

"puff!"

Ma Hongwei stared wide-eyed, feeling somewhat incredulous.

He originally thought that the Russian PKM used ordinary 7.62*54mm R bullets.

But to his utter surprise, the enemy was using armor-piercing incendiary rounds.

A standard 7.62*54mm R bullet, also known as an LPS bullet, can only penetrate 3-4mm of homogeneous steel plate at a distance of 200 meters; it can stop steel plates thicker than 5mm.

It should be noted that the 6.5mm standard round of the Type 38 rifle can also penetrate 3-4mm steel plates at a distance of 300 meters.

而PKM的7.62*54R的B32穿甲燃烧弹，则是能够在300米的距离，击穿10毫米的均质钢板。

It can penetrate a 6mm steel plate even at a distance of 500 meters.

These bullets are heavy and have enormous kinetic energy. When they hit the torso, they can directly shatter bones and tear internal organs. The accompanying incendiary agent can also burn and infect wounds.

However, a bulletproof plate bought for only 300 yuan actually stopped the bullet at a distance of 50 meters.

However, even if you can block the bullets from a machine gun, you will still get injured.

But being injured is better than dying.

The majority of the Eighth Route Army soldiers today are veterans of the Long March, and they are absolutely capable of being trained as officers to lead troops.

If these people had suffered fewer losses, the Eighth Route Army would have had more veterans and cadres in the future, and its combat effectiveness would have been even stronger.

Ma Hongwei said to Xia Weiwei, "These square ceramic tiles are already an outdated version. I remember a Chinese person in the United States tested honeycomb ceramic tiles before, which have smaller gaps and stronger protective capabilities."

"I think we can buy 20,000 of these bulletproof plates first. With the addition of bulletproof vests, the number of people who die in charges will definitely be much smaller."
