"This is our musket? How can it be so much more delicate than the officers and soldiers? ”

Everyone in the Long Xiang team took a few Lu Mi guns and passed them around, Mu Jing was careful, and he found the difference as soon as they reached him.

"Even if you kid has a vision, this is designed by me personally, all the riveting and iron hoops are hidden in the butt, and the outside naturally looks very exquisite."

Liu Ximing stood behind the crowd with a smile and said, seeing that everyone looked over, he took a gun and continued to explain: "I call this gun 'Longxiang style', this gun weighs five catties, is four feet five inches long, and comes with a bayonet with the gun. ”

"When this gun shoots, first stuff the gunpowder and the gun through the muzzle, then use the attached through strip to poke it tightly, and finally pour the ignition powder at the fire door, pull the trigger and ignite it with the fire rope, and then the flame ignites the gunpowder in the gun, and finally shoots the projectile."

"Bang"

Liu Ximing explained while operating, and finally launched the ammunition directly.

"Wow, good fellow, it's far enough."

Liu Xixian ran over to look at the traces of the bullet fired by Liu Ximing, and after a while, he ran back with an excited face, and shouted: "Second brother, where did you learn the marksmanship, and you hit it so accurately, you just knocked down the fruit on the tree." ”

Liu Ximing calmly blew the smoke from the muzzle of the gun, and said sadly: "You can learn to ride and chop for a few years, and maybe you can even draw a bow." ”

Liu Xixian rubbed his nose and said suspiciously: "Why haven't I seen this one named Qi Kan." ”

Hahaha, Liu Ximing was very happy, and the sadness in his heart was also diluted, but he didn't expect the spatial mutation to strengthen his body so much, could it be that he got the shooting mastery skill?

He shook his head vigorously, turned his head to look at everyone and said, "Since everyone is interested, let's try it everyone, and let's test the range of this gun by the way." ”

"I'll come first"

"I'll come first"

A group of people immediately rushed to grab the remaining guns, and tried them out with guns.

Liu Ximing set up a number of targets at a distance of 15 zhang, 30 zhang, and 50 zhang, and specially called the blacksmith workshop to create several thin steel plates to test the armor-piercing effect of Long Xiang.

Originally, in all years, "steps" were used to estimate the shooting distance, but Liu Ximing thought that there were too many length units, which was easy to confuse, and planned to use zhang, ruler, and inch as the length unit in the future, and one zhang was about 3.33 meters.

In the end, the relevant shooting data of Long Xiang was obtained, the maximum range was 120 zhang, and the effective firing range was 50 zhang, but the hit rate had dropped to 30% outside 30 zhang, if you consider the battlefield operation, I am afraid it is only 10%, if you want to break the armor, you must also put it within 30 zhang.

The shooting distance of the Long Xiang style is not as good as that of the Lu Mi Gong, and that thing is a fierce guy with a maximum range of 180 zhang, which is basically comparable to some modern firearms.

This is because Liu Ximing did not completely follow the production method of Lu Mi Gong, the Lu Mi gun is about six feet long, that is, about two meters, which is still too long for a group of teenagers, not to mention that the charge is inconvenient, and it must be supported with a fixed bracket.

He directly set the length of the gun at four feet, that is, about one meter five, plus the casing bayonet, which was enough to stab some enemies with swords.

Fortunately, Liu Ximing used his own black technology, due to the steel and internal processing of the space, the quality of the barrel is higher, and the charge is also increased, so although the range of the reduced version of the Longxiang No. 1 has been slightly reduced, it is still much stronger than the bird.

"Second brother, with this sharp weapon, what else do we have to fear", Yu Yongkai took Long Xiang and looked left and right, and said to Liu Ximing happily.

"Hahaha, don't be too complacent, you kid, although our gun is much better than the official army's bird gun, but do you know that the heavy bow used by the Northeast Jurchen savages has a similar killing distance to our gun."

According to the bird gun that the Meng army is equipped with now, it may be able to break the armor within fifteen zhang, which is a complete victory for Long Xiang, but if it is compared with the bow and arrow of the Manchu Dynasty, Liu Ximing is not too sure in his heart, thinking about the thick wolf tooth arrow in the Forbidden City, Comrade Liu is still a little chilled.

"Besides, I don't know if you have found it, Long Xiang also has several big problems, one is to use the fire rope, it cannot be used in rainy days, and the other is that the shooting speed is slow, there are too many steps to load the musket, and the ignition powder at the fire door is very easy to spill, so you must be careful when shooting."

Xu Wei immediately raised his hand and signaled, "Is there a solution?" ”

Liu Ximing explained with a smile: "The problem of the fire rope can be solved by flint firing, setting a vertical iron sheet on the ignition powder, changing the fire rope to flint, and then connecting the plate machine and the flint with a spring. When the trigger is pulled, the flint can use its force to strike the iron plate on the ignition powder to produce a spark, which ignites the gunpowder in the gun. ”

Liu Xi'an suddenly stretched his head over and asked, "This method sounds better than the fire rope, don't you use it, second brother?" ”

Liu Ximing touched his head and smiled bitterly: "I don't know the firing device of this flintlock pistol, but I heard that Bai Di of Taixi has already invented a flintlock pistol, and maybe you can buy a few to imitate in the future." ”

"As for the problem of firing speed, flintlock pistols can solve the problem of ignition powder, as for the rest, we can only solve it when we develop more convenient bullets. At present, we can only wrap bullets and gunpowder paper into small packets, so that when charging, we don't have to worry about whether the gunpowder is too much or too little, so that the shooting speed can be slightly improved. ”

Liu Ximing finally reminded loudly: "You remember, the most important thing for muskets is reloading speed and shooting accuracy, which require our accumulated training to ensure that from now on, we will add shooting courses to our training subjects, and we must train every day, and we must practice diligently." ”

"Whoa"

~~~~~

Crackling, crackling.

On July 28, the sound of firecrackers in the village resounded in the sky, and the construction of the Liu family's collective dormitory was finally completed, and the 500 people also had a place to stay, and they no longer had to sleep outside as they did in the previous two months.

I saw that along the Liu family's mansion to the north, a slip of blue brick houses surrounded a large rectangle, and several large houses were built on the vacated land in the middle of the dormitory as a canteen, a bathhouse and a classroom for the Longxiang group, the canteen is a large building built according to the scale of 3,000 people, and it can also be used as a meeting place at present.

The entire dormitory area is 160 meters long and 80 meters wide, and in order to facilitate the practice of Longxiang Qu, Liu Ximing also set aside a part of the space to build a small grandstand and circular playground.

A total of 200 dormitories have been built in the village, each dormitory is about 20 square meters, according to Liu Ximing's new algorithm, that is, 1.8 square abbots, equipped with wooden beds, which can accommodate almost four to five people.

Because the meals are all arranged uniformly, there is no need to build a kitchen in the dormitory, and in the corner to the west, Liu Ximing also specially built four large men's and women's toilets, so that these people will not have to defecate everywhere. An entrance and exit gate is set up on the east side of the dormitory, and the lintel is written with the words "Liujiacun Collective Dormitory".

That's right, Liu Ximing, who is shameless, took this opportunity to finally change the name of the village, and in the future, this will be the village of the Liu family, he shouted.

As for the government, it is easy to say, the official place names in these years are recorded according to the capital and A, for example, Zhengyuan Township should be called the seventh capital of Nanchong County, and those who are called villages and townships are common names of the people, and they have changed if they have been changed.

"Tonight's banquet, two more pigs will be killed, and everyone will celebrate together."

Liu Ximing took this opportunity to announce a celebration party in public to celebrate the completion of the dormitory.

"Hooray"

"The Proprietor is Righteous and Righteous"

The villagers boiled all at once, and the rest was better to say, mainly because there was meat to eat.

That night, the lights in the canteen of Liujia Village were brightly lit.

"Hahaha, the big guy eats and drinks well."

"Thank you for your help these days."

When it came to the banquet, Liu Ximing took Chen Yiding and a few others to walk around the crowd, and when they saw familiar faces, they exchanged a few words, and the atmosphere in the whole courtyard was very lively.

"Ahem, everyone be quiet, and listen to my brother."

Liu Xihe gave full play to the autonomy of the dog's legs, and when he saw Liu Ximing sitting down at the table, he hurriedly beckoned everyone to listen to Liu Ximing's instructions quietly.

Liu Ximing glanced at Liu Xihe approvingly, jumped to the chair all of a sudden, took a megaphone and shouted: "Old and young masters, today is a happy day, the dormitory is completed, and we finally have a home." ”

Roar, roar, "It's all the grace of the young master", a few nurses in the crowd followed and made a few words, driving everyone to cheer together.

Liu Ximing waved his hand proudly, and when the villagers were almost screaming, he continued: "In the past two months, everyone has been diligent, forgetting to sleep and eating, and I, Liu Ximing, have seen it all in my eyes, and I thank you all here." Next, our family will continue to build a large number of buildings, and strive to let every family live in a single-family house as soon as possible. ”

There was another burst of excitement in the crowd, Liu Ximing kept nodding and smiling, and said after a while: "In order to encourage everyone to work hard, I announce two things, the first is to commend the ten work activists who have been working since this time, and the people who heard my name come to me, Shao Rong, You Gao, Li Qin, ......"

The ten people who were called by their names looked dazed and a little at a loss, Yu Yongkai hurriedly walked to Shao Rong's side, gently pushed him and said, "Go quickly, this is a good thing." ”

Shao Rong saw that his captain was coming, so he hurriedly ran to Liu Ximing, and the other nine people who had a head also gathered.
