Chapter 208: In full swing Arquebus
Wu Xiongwei looked at Fu Tianqi, who was constantly punching and kicking not far away, and couldn't help but hold his forehead, although he couldn't get used to his bandit style, he was deeply impressed by their spirit of living and dying together.
"I'm ashamed of myself!"
Wu Xiongwei couldn't help but say softly, and he was also ashamed of his previous behavior of escaping.
After half a year, Wu Xiongwei can still clearly remember the scene of the war. Even if victory was hopeless, they still pushed forward and did not take a step back.
And now after such a big defeat, from the bandit boss to the ordinary bandits, so many people have died. Even the establishment has been destroyed, and many leaders have become bare-bones commanders. But these seemingly rude bandits have regrouped in such a short period of time. Gave himself the shock again and again, which seemed to him to be impossible at all, and it was grandly staged on the bandits that these thousands of people pointed to. Maybe I should let go of the stinky frame of the so-called official army and really integrate into this group of love-hate men!
Wu Xiongwei stood up, patted the dust on his body, and strode towards the school field. As long as there are these brothers who dare to work hard, they will definitely be able to train an invincible army for Young Master Chen.
"Brothers! What you are holding in your hands is what Young Master Chen made at a great price, and it is called the Three-Eyed Fire Gun! This treasure is amazing, although it is not as accurate as the bow and arrow, it is easy to use, and the range is not inferior to Jiannu's bow and arrow! Thousands of our people are firing together, it is absolutely earth-shattering, even if you can't kill Jiannu, you can scare their bunch of things to turn over on their backs alone"!
Wu Xiongwei shouted excitedly at the people who were fiddling with the fire hammer in their hands, and this batch of freshly made treasures has been re-improved by the young master and the craftsmen. The appearance has also changed a lot, especially the handle of the gun, which is cast with a spear head like a half-cut sword. He was holding a firearm that could be fired, and when he turned around, he was a spear that pierced people. Moreover, in the past, the barrel was short, and the accuracy and power were very worrying. But through the efforts of the craftsmen, the total length has reached two meters, and the barrel has been stretched a lot. And the bullet is also remade, the lead pellet and gunpowder are wrapped in kraft paper, which greatly increases the reload speed. It doesn't matter when the horse fights, after all, the horse is fast, and no matter how you get it, you can only play one round. But when it comes to foot combat, this advantage is even more obvious.
Compared with the three-eyed firecracker, this musket is more suitable for infantry arquebuses, and Wu Xiongwei prefers to use this three-eyed firecracker. The bird's gun exploded badly, and it was far less secure than this three-eyed firecracker. The transformation of equipment will inevitably lead to a change in tactics, this kind of god-like thing, Wu Xiongwei said it well, but there is no bottom in his heart.
If Chen Junde, who had been busy with the craftsmen for more than a month, knew that he would definitely kick him hard. We racked our brains, and we forgot to sleep and eat for so long, and you dare to question it?
Wu Xiongwei was about to demonstrate to everyone when he picked up the firecracker, lit the fire, and aimed at the target in front of him, and everyone looked intently at the firecracker that lit the fire.
"Bang bang bang"!
Wu Xiongwei leaned back, and suddenly there was a shocking sound, and clouds of smoke rose.
Even if everyone was prepared, it made those who had not used the fire gun almost sit on the ground in their hearts. I didn't expect the momentum of this thing to be really terrifying, and after being surprised, I couldn't wait to look at the target fifty steps ahead.
"Shhh
The sound of gasping came and went on the school field, and there was no target in front of it, except for a wooden stick that was still dangling, and the others were sawdust. Suddenly, everyone in the school field was smiling, carefully touching the fire gun in their hands, and no longer dared to fiddle with it as casually as before.
In fact, Wu Xiongwei knew in his heart that the effective range of this three-eyed firearm was more than 100 steps under the condition of ensuring accuracy, and it was definitely not as long as Jiannu's compound bow. But this is much better than before, but if the enemy is wearing heavy armor, the range may be shorter. But the distance is too far, and the shooting accuracy is not enough, and the horse can rush to the front with a distance of not a few tens of meters, and set fire to the gun first, and then turn around and use it as a spear. But in case it would be too much of a loss if it was a foot battle, it seemed that he would have to find Young Master Chen, and it would be best to make a batch of bird guns for foot combat, so that they could complement each other.
"You've all seen Brother Wu's demonstration, you all learn hard. Lao Tzu told you. If anyone dares to make trouble from it, Lao Tzu will have to kill him!"
Everyone is not interested in dealing with Tianqi's words, since this thing is so easy to use. Who wants to go to the trouble of Baal to learn that troublesome bow and arrow?
"Fu Ye rest assured, we will definitely practice according to Instructor Wu's orders, learn a skill, and we will fight bravely to kill the enemy in the future!"
"Good! Brothers have backbone! Brother Wu, you are familiar with the fire gun, I will leave it to you here, and I must give Young Master Chen a satisfactory answer!"
Wu Xiongwei arched his hand at Fu Tianqi and said, "Brother Fu, you can rest assured." I will definitely live up to my mission and build a team for Young Master Chen that will win every battle!"
After saying this, he said loudly to everyone in the school field: "Today, let's start to get familiar with the firecracker, at least we must be able to retract and release it freely." One will start the test firing, everyone will obey the order, and then they will line up in five columns, and they will go forward in turn to reload and fire, and the target is the boulder in front of you, when it will be broken, we will rest and move today"!
Even if it is an improved three-eyed firebolt, this accuracy problem is also more prominent. Wu Xiongwei also didn't want to have a good omen for the first shot, so he chose that stone, which was only about sixty paces away, and according to normal calculations, he would definitely be able to complete this training task before dinner.
The queue began to form in the school field, and it was a hot scene.
In Bai Yan'er's room, Sheng Sichao, as usual, came to deliver food to Bai Yan'er, who had been in a bad state recently.
"Yan'er, you have to eat something, it's all your favorite sweets. It's been half a year since you calculated it, and you don't think about it, what kind of weight have you lost. Boss Liu's death is not to blame you, you have to cultivate your spirit, in case one day Young Master Chen takes his brothers to take revenge, you have such a weak appearance, even if that bastard raises his neck and asks you to cut it, you can't hold the knife."
Sheng Sichao picked up the rice bowl and said softly to Bai Yan'er, who was in a trance, the distressed expression was not pretentious, and the words of concern were touching.
Bai Yan'er has been tormented in every way during this time, and every time she closes her eyes in the dead of night, her mind will show Boss Liu looking at Chen Junde when he is dying. I really didn't expect this to end up like this when she was reckless for a while, sometimes she wanted to die for Boss Liu, and if she died, she would die, and she would be a hundred. Why should I be so miserable, even with others grief-stricken because of myself.
After hearing Sheng Sichao's words again, Bai Yan'er's mind was chaotic. didn't have any ideas, anyway, at this time, she wanted to meet Chen Junde. No matter how he treats himself, as long as he can see him, his heart will be much more relieved.
Ignoring Sheng Sichao's true feelings, Bai Yan'er got up and ran out.
Sheng Sichao, who was cold to the side again, still helplessly scooped up the food and put it in his mouth, without asking, he knew that Bai Yan'er was going to find Chen Junde again, anyway, this is not the first time. At this time, he felt bitter and difficult to swallow the sweet meal, and shouted helplessly in his heart: Yan'er, Yan'er, what do you want me to be!
At this time, Chen Junde was studying the problem of arquebuses with the craftsmen, although these craftsmen can make bird guns, but it is really troublesome to serve this owner who has constant ideas in his head. He and the others had just finished getting the three-eyed firecracker, and before they could catch their breath, this kid ran to say what to make some arquebuses, and no one was idle at all!
During today's official delivery period, this group of craftsmen who have not slept a peaceful sleep in the past six months, and even have calculated the time to eat, are all sitting in the shed with a tired face, watching the young man in white in front of him fiddling with the short gun that he and others have just made.
"Haha, you've worked hard, that's why it's called a musket!"
Chen Junde held the musket in his hand and kept gesturing, and his joy was undoubtedly leaking. The previous gun was actually more like a small cannon in terms of appearance and usage, and it was not next to the gun. An object that doesn't even have a trigger, and the word musket itself really can't be called.
Previously, when making the three-eyed firecracker, Chen Junde proposed to build a flintlock pistol. But after talking to the craftsmen for a long time, except for shaking his head, Chen Junde did not get any effective response. And the flintlock pistol needs a spring, but in this era when the process is not very mature, it is always explosive to make a bird's gun, let alone a spring, even shrapnel cannot be made. So the only way to do this is to build a batch of arquebuses.
"Young Master Chen, this time the old man and the masters have worked hard, this short gun is made by us with great effort. You'll give it a try, and if there's nothing wrong with it, you'll be able to equip it. But if you have any other requirements, we can't do anything about it, so you might as well ask for another skill!"
Chen Junde looked at the mentally depressed Master He, his face full of guilt. At this stage, I didn't bother him less, as the steward in this shed, this little old man seemed to be tortured by himself to the point that he was about to collapse.
"Don't say that, boy, you have to rely on you a lot in the future!"
Chen Junde bowed deeply to the craftsmen, turned his head and said to Yuan Guigui beside him: "Go and arrange for the masters, they should take a good rest, and just listen to their orders." Just one thing you have to keep in mind, you can't give in to these heroes"!
Yuan Guigui nodded yes, and said respectfully to the steward beside Chen Junde: "Old He, let's go and rest."
"Well, then the old man is disrespectful. Let's go, everyone, after half a year, it's time for us to take a break!"
As if it was a heavenly sound, everyone's tired faces suddenly added a touch of brilliance. With the support of Yuan Guigui and others, he slowly left the shed.
Chen Junde watched them leave motionlessly, and sighed lightly, grateful, moved, and relieved. When he couldn't see the figures, he turned around and fiddled with the muskets one by one, like a child's favorite toy, and he couldn't put it down.
Suddenly, someone hugged him tightly behind his back, and he only heard a cry in his ear.
"Jun'er, I want to avenge my eldest brother"!
