Liu Jiang didn't dare to say it, he really didn't dare. He dared to offend Wang Changde, but he definitely didn't dare to offend Shi Qi! She is a caring person by Miss Wang's side!
Shi Qi looked at Liu Jiang with wide eyes. Liu Jiang blushed and said: "The first two times when the young lady discussed marriage, the man had an accident. It's all my doing. Subsequently, I also sent people to spread some rumors, which affected the reputation of the young lady. Please forgive me! ”
When Shi Qi was six years old, he was sold into the mansion by Renyazi and grew up with the young lady. For more than ten years, the two have been very close, no different from sisters. So as soon as he heard Liu Jiang like this, Shi Qi became angry on the spot!
She didn't care about the presence of Wang Changde and his wife, so she immediately crossed her waist, glared and said, "Okay! It turned out that you scoundrel did it! It made the young lady cry several times! Vile! ”
Wang Changde and his wife knew that these things were instructed by Liu Pei, but they didn't know who did it. However, when Liu Jiang reported his home just now, Wang Changde had already guessed the result. So at this time, he just snorted in his nose, and his face softened a lot. Because he could see from Liu Jiang's actions that his daughter had a very high status in Liu Pei's heart! Otherwise, Liu Jiang, as Liu Pei's henchman, would definitely not have this attitude!
So Wang Changde raised his hand and said: "Don't mess around!" All you have to do is pass the word to the young lady. The rest is up to the lady to decide. ”
Only then did the servant restrain his anger, squatted down and said, "The slave maid will go and tell the young lady now." ”
After saying that, the waiter turned around and left. Wang Changde received his wife's eyes, and began to interrogate Liu Jiang about what to do. Liu Jiang answered one by one.
As soon as a few people finished speaking, the waiter came in with a curtain and said to Liu Jiang: "Miss said, the general can't help himself." In the future, I will definitely not embarrass the general, and the matter will be stopped. ”
Liu Jiang immediately bowed his hand and said, "Thank you, Miss, for being magnanimous." ”
After speaking, he took out a small box from his arms and handed it to Shi Qi and said: "This thing is given to my sister as a meeting gift, and I will ask my sister to say a few more kind words in the future." ”
Wang Changde stretched out his hand to take the wooden box and opened it to see that it was a pearl. Wang Changde casually closed the lid and handed it to the waiter and said, "Even if it was given to you by Liu Jiangjun, you can accept it." ”
When the waiter saw the old man nodding, he happily took the pearl, saluted and left. Liu Jiang turned to Wang Changde and said, "Lord Wang, if there is anything that needs to be done in the future, your Excellency only needs to say a word, and you will do your best in the future!" ”
Wang Changde nodded and said, "Okay, the official knows!" ”
At that moment, Liu Jiang casually arched his hand and left. Liu Jiang is afraid of Miss Wang, but he is not afraid of his father! As soon as Liu Jiang left, his wife asked Wang Changde and said, "How can he apologize to our family?" ”
Wang Changde sneered and said: "He is one of Liu Pei's henchmen, and he has a lot of confidential matters. Because Liu Pei's order ruined Ya'er's marriage, I was afraid that Ya'er would hold a grudge. That's why I apologized! ”
After listening to the explanation, Mrs. also understood her daughter's status in Liu Pei's heart, and went to her daughter to talk happily.
As soon as Liu Pei returned to Jiaozhou, a guard came to inform him that the Academy of Sciences had sent someone to invite him, saying that he could go directly to the blacksmith shop, and something very important had been produced!
Liu Pei was overjoyed when she heard it! Because the things produced in the blacksmith shop are basically related to weapons and armor, there is news that there are important items produced, which means that it must be a good thing to increase combat power!
Liu Pei led the guards to the blacksmith shop. And all the people who were inside came to meet him. Liu Pei found that Bao Dezhi was also among them. After Liu Pei dismounted, he first bowed to Bao Dezhi and received the salute from everyone. After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Liu Pei said: "Mr. Bao, I don't know what good things have come out this time?" It's so grand! ”
Bao Dezhi smiled mysteriously and said, "This time is really a good thing!" A good thing that will make you dominate the world! ”
Liu Pei was even happier when he heard it, so he said: "Let's talk about it first, let's talk about it first!" ”
Bao Dezhi shook his head and said, "I won't tell you first, I'll test your eyesight later." ”
It's time for everyone to talk, and it's time to come to the blacksmith's backyard shooting range. The range has been remodeled to become longer and wider. It's about a hundred steps away. It's almost as close to 300 meters as it is in modern times.
Liu Pei was even happier when she saw the improved shooting range! It seems that there has been a major improvement in the firecracker! Liu Pei didn't know much about the history of military equipment, so he guessed that he should have made an integrated bullet! Only in this way can the rationale for the modification of the shooting range be explained.
So Liu Pei couldn't wait to say: "Come, show it, let me see what it is." ”
At this moment, a blacksmith walked up with a fire hammer and quickly began to reload the sub-medicine. The blacksmith's range was dedicated to experimenting with new weapons, and because of the fear that the new weapons would be dangerous, it was stipulated that everyone except the operator had to watch from a shed not far behind.
Liu Pei was standing in the shed at this time, and he was a little puzzled when he saw that the blacksmith's loading method was still front-loaded. This is clearly not a method of loading one-piece ammunition. Just as he was about to ask Bao Dezhi, the blacksmith had already loaded, picked up his gun and took a slight aim.
Liu Pei immediately raised the telescope to look, only to see the target in the distance shaking, obviously hitting the target! Now Liu Peike is really happy! With a distance of more than 100 steps and a distance of more than 200 meters, if you can shoot at the target at this distance, it shows that this firearm and bullet have made revolutionary progress! This made it possible for the infantry to defeat the cavalry!
With such a long firing distance, as long as the density of fire and the speed of rotation are maintained at the same time, the infantry can firmly block the cavalry from the line of fire! When the time comes, whether it is the Mongol Tartars or the Houjin Tartars, no matter how many cavalry they come, it will be useless?
Liu Pei watched the blacksmith fire five shots in a row, and it could be seen that his shooting skills were very good, and the gun was on target! Liu Pei put down the binoculars, nodded with satisfaction, and said to Bao Dezhi: "Mr. Bao, can you uncover the mystery now?" Show me what's good! ”
Bao Dezhi smiled and waved his hand, and a blacksmith turned around and came over with a small plate. Inside the plate were a few buckshot bullets and a short gun. However, the lead bullet lines are not round, but round-headed like modern pistol bullets. There are two grooves from the lower two-thirds of the head of the buckshot. Then in the tail of the determination there is a small wooden block embedded there.
Liu Pei is not familiar with the history of weapons development. So he really didn't recognize what kind of buckshot it was? He plucked the lead bullet with his fingers, looked at the roll on his wooden plate, and said, "Mr. Bao, what is this?" A new type of bullet? ”
Bao Dezhi nodded and said, "That's right, this is a new type of bullet!" Looks like you don't recognize them either, do you? ”
Liu Pei nodded and said, "I really don't know, I haven't heard of this kind of bullet." ”
"This bullet was originally called the Migne bullet, which is a transitional form of rifled gun bullets. You see, this short gun is rifled! ”
Liu Pei was overjoyed when she heard it! No matter how sluggish Liu Pei is, he knows that the fire gun has the effect of rifling! So I immediately built a short gun and looked into the pipe, and sure enough, I saw a few rifling wires winding into the depths of the pipe! And it's very neat, and at first glance it's a Seiko product!
At that moment, Bao Dezhi whispered to Liu Pei the history of the Mine. The Migne rifle was a front-loading rapid-fire rifle developed around 1849 by the inventors of the Migne bullet, Claude Edirne Migne and Captain Henri-Gustave de Vicchine, Captain of the Orleans Chasseurs of the French Army.
When the French fought against the Algerian revolutionaries in North Africa, they found that although their rifles were much better in workmanship, they could not maintain heavy firepower. Based on this, Migne and others boldly improved the French rifle. A new type of rifle cartridge was created, namely the Migne bullet, and in order to match this bullet, Migne and others developed a new type of rifle after repeated designs, which is the famous Minne rifle. The advent of the Minne rifle heralded the official arrival of the era of rifled rifles as mass equipment for infantry.
The Minne rifle uses a round-tipped cylindrical shell lead bullet invented by Migne. Since this bullet is slightly smaller than the caliber of the rifle, it solves the embarrassing situation of the old rifle's frontloading bullet that cannot be stuffed into the barrel or clogs the barrel due to the large bullet.
