"However, this rifle might bring significant logistic pressure to our operations!"
Jerome Patterson was correct in pointing out that the advent of rifles, artillery, and machine guns would indeed impose a certain degree of pressure on logistics.
After all, during the era of muzzle-loading firearms, a skilled soldier could only fire twice per minute, whereas the Mauser rifle 2.0 could easily achieve 8 to 9 shots per minute.
If a magazine is added, the rate can completely multiply several times.
This means that the number of bullets each soldier carries is several times what it used to be, thus requiring logistics support of several times the original scale.
Take Crimea, for example. In the Crimean War, Jerome Bonaparte transported over 90 million bullets to Crimea.
Considering the 120,000 French troops, 90 million bullets amount to approximately 750 bullets per person.
