The waves beat against the huge hull of the Galen, and the wind roared.
In the distance, a black cloud was approaching, which indicated that a storm would come soon.
"Bah, your highness doesn't need the support of you people with ulterior motives."
Yue Yun spat at the words of the translator.
Now it is very clear that the king of Chu has become the running dog of the Dutch. No wonder the king of Chu has become more and more domineering over the years, and he has been fearless for a long time.
"What to do?" The translator looks at Yue Yun.
"According to the plan just now, let his companions take things to exchange him back. They and the Dutch are not good people."
Looking at the sea dyed black by dark clouds, Yue Yun is heavy hearted. Whether he is Dutch or British, this confirms what Xiao Ming told them in school.
Now the Western powers have delimited their sphere of influence to the state of Dayu, and according to Wilson, the flint gun is a common equipment in the west, and the sail warship sails around the world.
In the state of Dayu, the Dutch had already introduced the torch into the fiefdom of the king of Chu. The news was very important enough to give the king of Chu a fatal blow in the court.
With a sigh, he looked at Qingzhou on the chart, hoping that now the king of Qi had produced the flint gun.
……
Qingzhou, military workshop.
After a burst of firecracker like sound, a burst of cheers sounded on the test firing field of the military workshop.
On the test field, Xiao Ming holds a brand-new flint gun, and the muzzle of the gun is still smoking.
The butt of the suifa gun is made of brown mahogany. There is a bayonet on the barrel. The position of Xiao Ming's finger is the shining silver movement. The whole suifa gun barrel is 107 cm long, 0.75 caliber and weighs 4 kg, including a 60 cm long bayonet.
While busy planting cotton these two days, the first barrel was also officially produced. Zhang Liuma sent the barrel to the military workshop without stopping.
Song Changping, who had completed the assembly of the rest of the accessories, then assembled the barrel, and a flint gun was officially born.
And the news of Xiao Ming also rushed to the military workshop, Lu Tong also brought ammunition.
"Your Highness, where did the bullet go?" Chen Qi looked ahead, did not know where the target of Xiao Ming's round of shooting was.
"I don't know." Xiao Ming happily played with the flint gun in his hand. "The precision of the flint gun is very poor. It needs concentrated fire to exert its power. Just now, the bullet didn't know where it was flying."
Although song Changping and others made the flint gun, they couldn't use it at all. They didn't know it until Xiao Ming came. It was almost the same as the artillery.
The only difference now is that the back of the gun is flint firing.
"So bow and arrow are inferior?" Chen Qi looks strange, "why does your highness produce this thing? It's better to let song Changping follow me to produce artillery. "
Song Changping pulled a group of people to produce muskets, which Chen Qi was distressed by. Now seeing that muskets are inferior to artillery, he took the opportunity to say that he wanted to recover the loss.
"You can make artillery, but you don't understand it when you march and fight. This flint gun is much more important than artillery. I can count on it to drive the barbarians away." Xiao Ming gently stroked the suifa gun.
The flint gun was finally produced, and Xiao Ming felt relaxed. At least Qingzhou once again reduced the generation gap of Western weapons.
All of them were talking about the firearm in high spirits when suddenly a horse's hoof sounded outside the military workshop.
Niu Zhen and Lu Fei appeared in front of the crowd.
"Your Highness, are flint guns produced?" Niu Zhen looks forward to it.
Xiao Ming nodded and took the other two flint guns, one of them missing.
"Your Highness, this guy is worth a spear." Luffy had a flint gun, and the first thing he noticed was the bayonet on the wall.
Niu Zhen nodded, "no wonder your highness said that the long spear soldiers would be disbanded. Now the musketeers are the long spear soldiers."
"The old general now understands that this firearm is not only a long-range arm, but also a short-range arm. In the face of the iron charge of the barbarians, the firearm can shoot in the distance and fight hand to hand. It won't be killed so easily by the cavalry."
Niu Zhen's eyes were excited. This flint gun was very magical in Xiao Ming's mouth. He said, "Your Highness, how can I use this gun?"
Xiao Ming smiles and says to Chen Qi, "take a set of plate armour and hang it 80 meters away."
Chen Qi got a set of plate armour and hung it on the target 80 meters away. At this position, it was almost the maximum effective range of the flint gun.
Then he said to Niu Zhen and Lu Fei, "you stand on both sides of the king and learn from him."
While speaking, Xiao Ming gives the ammunition of the flint gun to them.
Although Niu Zhen and Lu Fei were strange, they did as Xiao Ming said.
At this time, Xiao Ming put the flint gun on the ground, bit open the ammunition, poured the gunpowder and the projectile into the barrel of the flint gun, then used the strip to compact the gunpowder and the projectile, and scattered some gunpowder in the gunpowder pool, lifted the flint gun up and aimed at the plate armour.Niu Zhen and Lu Fei, like others, also took up the flint gun.
"Fire!" At Xiao Ming's command, he pulled the trigger. There was another shot and smoke, and there were two shots on both sides of him.
It's just that Niu Zhen and Lu Fei's gun raising posture is not right, and their guns are almost unstable.
"It's quite powerful." After seeing the artillery, Lufei was not as shocked as he was when he first saw the artillery.
And like Chen Qi, he thinks it's a smaller gun.
"Hit?" put down the gun, Luffy said excitedly.
Niu Zhen also showed a look of expectation. They all had high expectations for the flint gun.
It's just that the person who went to explore soon came back and didn't hit.
"I shouldn't have. I'm aiming right." Niu Yu didn't believe it.
Instead of responding, Xiao Ming said, "second round shooting."
Niu Zhen and Lu Fei scratched their heads and had to load ammunition and shoot again.
"Shot." The person who went to explore brought back the plate armour.
After two rounds of shooting, Niu Zhen felt that the flint gun was not as accurate as a bow and arrow, but when he saw the hole in the plate armour, he was silent, and the bullet penetrated the plate armour completely.
"Old general, now you certainly disdain the accuracy of this flint gun, but I'm not here to show you this." He said to Chen Qi, song Changping and others, "you three should come again."
Chen Qi, song Changping and Zhang Liu nodded excitedly, immediately took the flint gun and stood in the position of the three just now.
"The veteran general has experienced the battlefield for a long time, and his archery skills are unparalleled. Naturally, he can go through all walks of life. But with the flint gun, even Chen Qi, who never touches the sword, can kill an experienced barbarian cavalry at such a long distance."
"Bang Bang..."
He is saying, Chen Qi and others have opened fire.
"Yes
The detective came back to report soon. Niu Zhen's face became heavy when he heard the speech.
