Chapter 672: Is Your Country Declaring War on the Empire?

This Type 5 rifle is also in accordance with the old rules, in addition to the standard version, there are also cavalry versions with short barrels, and naval versions for different troops.

The Fuyuan Type 5 rifle began to be equipped on a large scale, so a large number of Roan Type 4 rifles in active service in the army also need to be slowly retired and mothballed, but because the bullet caliber of the new gun and the old gun is not universal, the army did not save too much idea of the Roan Type 4 rifle, but prepared to slowly dispose of it in the future.

Now the Roan IV rifle has also made a name for itself in the world, and over the years, millions of units have been sold to the outside world, and the number of Roan IV rifles purchased by the Orr Kingdom and for the two younger brothers alone has reached nearly 500,000 units.

It has also sold a lot in other countries, so the Luoan IV rifle is still very easy to sell, with good accuracy, cheap price, simple and reliable, and can get nine bullets in one go, which is very popular with other countries.

The army is also preparing to slowly dispose of a batch of rifles, and then increase the production of Type 5 rifles, and finally achieve not only the army's active equipment with this rifle, but also the strategic reserve to make this kind of rifle, so as to realize the unification of active and strategic reserve weapons, reduce the cost of reserves, logistics supply, and so on.

At the same time, not only rifles, but also machine guns are included in the reloading plan!

The Army will upgrade the existing heavy machine guns, eventually introducing an 8mm heavy machine gun that fires the same bullets as the rifle.

The army has already formed a plan for the replacement of all light weapons, and even artillery is steadily advancing 'smokeless', such as designing and replacing 75 mm 30 times the caliber field guns.

Because of the invention of smokeless gunpowder, in fact, the Daheng Empire, whether it is the navy or the army, has entered a period of comprehensive rearmament, which also means that the Daheng Empire can provide a large number of retired spot weapons to the Orr Kingdom.

For example, those 200,000 rifles!

A country that can directly take out 200,000 rifles for sale in one go and deliver them on the spot, looking at the entire Blue Star, only the Great Heng Empire at this time can do it.

Not because of how powerful the defense industry of the Daheng Empire is, but because the Daheng Army just happens to be in a large-scale rearmament.

If these Orrs had come to buy 200,000 rifles in stock a few months in advance, the Great Heng Empire would not have been able to come up with them...

In fact, the Orr Kingdom itself does not need so many rifles, they have already completed a comprehensive reloading of the Roan IV rifle in recent years, and have a number of Roan IV rifles and Roan III rifles strategic reserves, and they have also rifled their own smoothbore guns in the early years.

This is enough to arm their army, even if it is enough to mobilize another 500,000 troops in the future.

Now purchasing so many rifles, it is to continue to arm the two younger brothers of the Orr Kingdom, that is, the Venabe Kingdom and the Andel Kingdom, the two younger brothers of the Orr Kingdom do not have so many advanced equipment, and there is no money to change the equipment, anyway, over the years, the weapons and equipment of these two younger brothers have basically been provided by the Orr Kingdom.

Seeing that a war was about to start, the Orr Kingdom simply purchased a large number of weapons at their own expense to arm their two younger brothers.

The Orrs waved the gold purchase on the side of Daheng and did not make a big fanfare, and in order to avoid the detection and interference of the Krull Kingdom, both countries chose to keep it a secret in this matter.

Although it is said that the Daheng Empire is not afraid of the protests of the Krull Kingdom or anything else, but it really provokes the Krull Kingdom, and people make a fleet of battleships to swing along the coast of the empire, and the weapons that the empire sells to the Orr Kingdom are afraid that they will not be able to be shipped......

This has to be announced for people to see, and it must be announced so that these ordnance weapons and warships can successfully arrive in the Orr Kingdom!

Therefore, when the two sides reached an agreement, many weapons and ammunition were loaded from various military ports, and these cargo ships then quietly headed south.

At the same time, a total of second-class battleships and two cruisers, including the Unification, Luohe, and Pingbo, also left Daheng Military Port and quietly headed south under the banner of ocean-going navigation training.

Just a few days later, after these warships secretly arrived at the port of the Orr Kingdom, the officers and men of the Daheng Navy on board disembarked directly and handed over these warships to the Orr Kingdom Navy, and then they would return home by passenger ship.

Wait until the cargo ships carrying other weapons also arrive in the Orr Kingdom.

The Great Heng Empire and the Orr Kingdom let out the rumors, saying that the two countries had reached a number of new trade agreements, and the Orr Kingdom had purchased a batch of ordnance, weapons and warships from the Daheng Empire.

After this news was announced, it caused great dissatisfaction on the side of the Krull Kingdom.

The Minister of the Krull Kingdom in Beijing was furious and demanded to meet with Jiang Wanye, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Great Heng Empire, and protested!

Imperial Foreign Minister Jiang Wanye said: Please queue up for protest!

There are several ministers in front of you who want to protest against the Empire because of all kinds of, I'll look at the timetable, well, I'm free tomorrow at five o'clock in the afternoon, and you can protest again.

In the afternoon of the next day, the minister of the Krull Kingdom arrived on time to lodge a serious protest, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs Jiang Wanye listened to the protest nonsense of the minister of the Krull Kingdom opposite, and said what kind of trade freedom is crackling, explaining the legitimacy and rationality of the empire in this trade, in short, it is our business to sell weapons!

At the same time, he was muttering in his heart: What use do you have to be a diplomat of mine, have you ever seen my Great Heng Empire pay attention to the verbal protests of other countries?

If you really want to force us to give in or give in, you have to declare war!

No matter how bad it is, you have to play with its trade sanctions and so on.

What the? You don't dare to declare war, cut off trade between the two countries, you have lost more than us!

Then you protest!

Things were as Jiang Wanye expected, and the Krull Kingdom made a serious verbal protest, and then ......

Then what should everyone do, the Krull Kingdom can't declare war on the Daheng Empire just because the Daheng Empire sold some weapons to the Orr Kingdom.

Besides, it's not once or twice that the Daheng Empire sells weapons to the Orr Kingdom, and the army and navy of the Orr Kingdom are all Daheng ordnance warships, and the Krull Kingdom has also protested before, but it's basically useless.

There are few countries on the Blue Star that can resist the pressure of the Krull Kingdom, and unfortunately, the Great Heng Empire is one of them.

And as soon as your tone was urgent, and one side said cruelly, the people of Daheng immediately put on a straight face and asked in a very serious tone: "Is your country going to declare war on the empire?"

Usually at this time the protesters are scared silly!

Those who are not stupid will be angry and vomit blood: declare a fart war, you constant barbarians know about fighting a war every day, this is just ordinary diplomatic protest, this is diplomacy, not war!

As soon as you protest something, you will declare war or not, according to you, we diplomats will not all be unemployed and laid off!

Not to mention, Jiang Wanye, the foreign minister, is really not a career diplomat, he was still the vice minister of industry and commerce at this time last year, and he is good at international trade......
