PS: there's another chapter. It's around eleven o'clock.
Qingzhou military camp.
It was lunchtime when the soldiers in Qingzhou were sitting in the dining hall.
Since the reform of the Qingzhou army, there has been a special canteen in the Qingzhou camp. After the recruitment of logistics soldiers, the logistics soldiers are responsible for the food of the soldiers in Qingzhou.
"Oh, it's fried locust again. I can't eat enough." Lu Fei sat down on the chair, took a bite of the steamed bread and went to pick up the fried locust.
Although the conditions in Qingzhou are much better now, the soldiers of Qingzhou army mainly eat steamed bread, cakes and other staple food. It's good to have two or three courses of vegetables to eat, not to mention meat. After all, 20000 mouths are not so easy to feed.
However, after Li Kaiyuan brought the fried locust, the Qingzhou army finally had a good meal every three to five.
"Our highness is really talented. Lufei, how do you know that this locust can eat like this? Ah, I'm really impressed every three days." Rosin sighed as he ate the fried locusts.
Niu Zhen shook his head. This time, he felt a little ashamed.
When he was in the military camp, he always ate and lived with the soldiers, which was also the requirement for the generals. He thought he was already happy with the people, but he didn't expect Xiao Ming to go deeper into the people than him.
This time, I personally fried locusts in Dongshi for the common people. Now this has become a good story in the mouth of the common people.
While they were eating, suddenly a guard of the camp came to report, "governor, your highness is coming."
After hearing the speech, Niu Zhen quickly took a few mouthfuls. So did Lu Fei and Luo Xin. They hurriedly took a few mouthfuls of rice and walked out of the camp.
"It must be the first flint guns." Luffy said excitedly.
Luo Xin was a little jealous. Lu Fei was going to change his equipment soon. He muttered: "no matter how powerful the flint gun is, it's better than the gun."
"Bah!" Lu Fei gives Luo Xin a white look.
When they arrived outside the camp, they saw Xiao Ming followed by a number of carriages with one box after another.
"Your Highness, is the suifa here?" Niu Zhen was the first to ask. He was more anxious than Lu Fei, waiting for the firing gun to be loaded.
Because Xiao Ming said that this flint gun is a sharp weapon against barbarians.
"Five hundred. This is the first batch. The military workshop says that it can provide 2000 flint guns next month. It is estimated that the Qingzhou army will be able to replace them all in one year." Xiao Ming said with a smile.
"Haha, that's great, your highness. There's no problem with the discipline of the Qingzhou army, and there's no problem with the battle array. The soldiers just need to learn how to operate the flint guns." Lu Fei laughs.
Xiao Ming nodded, "commander Niu, these five hundred flint guns are all equipped in the vanguard camp. When the soldiers have dinner, let the vanguard camp gather. I'll show you how to operate the flint guns."
"Your Highness, the last time you taught in the military workshop, you need not bother your highness." Lu Fei was eager to try and wanted to show off in front of the soldiers.
Xiao Ming said with a smile: "that's not good. Last time it was just a test shot, but Wang just packed the ammunition in it. This time it's a regular training, but we can't follow the last one."
Niu Ling and Lu Fei looked at each other, and suddenly their faces were red. They also boasted with the soldiers that it was a non standard order.
Five hundred brand-new flint guns were all unloaded, and the soldiers moved the guns to the school yard. At this time, all the soldiers of the pioneer camp gathered in the school yard.
They were all red with excitement when they learned that they were going to use brand new weapons today.
The whole box of flint guns was moved in front of the soldiers. At this time, Xiao Ming was not in a hurry to fire the flint guns, but was ready to explain to the soldiers.
As in the military workshop last time, Xiao Ming gave Lu Fei and Niu Zhen a flint gun each.
"In front of you is suifa gun. In the future, suifa gun will become your weapon and your life on the battlefield. Therefore, after you get suifa gun, you must cherish the gun in your hands, because you can only rely on them if you can survive from the battlefield. Now, I'll explain the structure and function of suifa gun to you."
Facing the soldiers, Xiao Ming explained every structure of the flint gun and its function.
The soldiers concentrated on each other for fear of missing a word.
After the explanation, Xiao Ming was facing the soldiers from the side. This time, he demonstrated the normal operation standard of flint gun.
First, Xiao Ming picked up the flint gun, tilted it 45 degrees, and put it in the loading position. Then he said, "watch my movements. First, open the lock, open the cover of the medicine pool, then take out the bullet, bite it open, pour the powder into the powder pool, close the cover of the medicine pool, then pour the powder in the remaining paper shell into the barrel, and plug the bullet into the barrel with the paper shell. At this time, the strip will be removed from the gun Take it out from under the tube, insert the strip, insert the strip into the barrel and tamp the ammunition back and forth. "
After this action, Xiao Ming continued: "after loading ammunition, put the strip back, lift the flint gun on his shoulder, and wait for the order to shoot."
At this time, both Lu Fei and Niu Zhen posed in the order Xiao Ming said. Then Xiao Ming said, "open fire!""Bang bang!"
Two shots, accompanied by a burst of white smoke suddenly puffed.
All the soldiers in the vanguard camp were stunned. The huge sound of the firegun was enough to frighten people.
"Hey, hey, how about that? This flint gun is very powerful. I tell you, 80 meters away, one shot pierces the plate armor. When the time comes, the barbarians will not be afraid that they will wear armor!" Luffy said excitedly.
Seeing the muskets, Luo Xin was a little jealous and said, "Your Highness, should our artillery also be equipped with flint guns, or who will protect us on the battlefield?"
"Don't worry about this captain Luo. I'll send several people to protect you at that time, but you'll listen to me and fight wherever you want." Lu Fei holds a flint gun, a kind of abandoning others.
Rosin answered him with a disdainful look.
Xiao Ming ignored the bickering between the two men. Instead, he said to Niu Zhen, "commander Niu, let's fire this flint gun."
Niu Zhen nodded and said to the soldiers, "come in line and lead them one by one. Don't move when you get the flint guns. All of them are under command."
"Yes The soldiers gave a shout.
The five hundred men in the vanguard camp were all equipped with flint guns. The soldiers stood upright one by one with their flint guns standing on the ground. The five hundred men gathered together and looked very powerful.
Looking at the Qingzhou army like a modern army, Xiao Ming suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of security in his heart. Then he roared: "stand tight and follow my orders."
With these words, Xiao Ming and Niu Zhen stood beside the soldiers.
Then Xiao Ming asked the soldiers to stand in a column. After everyone stood up, he gave a series of orders and finally called out, "open fire!"
