Chapter 54: Ba Lao Dao Comes to Seek Revenge
"You come with me." Mo Li said, and then took Lei Luo and the others to a stone room, where there were a few craftsmen who were tinkering with something, and when they saw Mo Li walking in, they all saluted: "Lord Deputy Commander!" ”
Mo Li nodded and said, "Everyone has worked hard, go on." ”
Lei Luo saw a lot of iron sheets and iron pipes or something, as well as sulfur, charcoal, saltpeter and other things, and didn't know what to do with them.
Mo Li picked up a drawing from the table and handed it to Lei Luo.
Lei Luo glanced at it, and the main drawing on it was a long item similar to a musket, but it was very different from a musket, and a barrel-like thing was drawn on the bottom, and I didn't know what to do with it. "What is this?"
"This is a prototype drawing of a flamethrower." Moli said. Although it was developed in Jinzhou, the craftsmen who brought it over did not fully master this technique. Moreover, the flamethrower built in Jinzhou was also a bit too large and bulky, and could only be loaded on a chariot, which was a bit clumsy.
"Flamethrower? What is that? Lei Luo and Fred looked at each other, and both asked suspiciously.
"This is the new weapon I told you about. Its main principle is to spray the oil out of the pipe with pressure and ignite it with an igniter at the nozzle. Mo Li pointed to the barrel-like object and said: "This is for fuel, if the development is successful, the flames spewed out by the nozzle can reach more than ten meters away or even farther, so that in the hand-to-hand combat, a large number of enemies can be burned, and cause panic on the other side, especially the war horse, the war horse panics, the Tartar cavalry will rout." ”
"Oh! It's amazing! Mr. Moli, how did you come up with such a powerful weapon? After listening to Moli's explanation of the principle, Lei Luo couldn't help but admire.
"Hehe, this is really nothing, I still have a lot of new ideas, but the current conditions are still a little rudimentary, and you can't make ......," Mo Li said.
"I can't say anything else, but I'm still 80% sure of this thing." Lei Luo thought for a moment and said.
"Really?!" Moli is overjoyed.
Lei Luo nodded.
"Then you can study it here, as long as you make it, I will definitely have a lot of money to pay you by then." Moli said.
Lei Luo and Fred talked a few words, and the two finally decided to stay, not for anything else, but it was Mo Li who aroused their great interest, especially his training methods, and the weapon drawings he depicted, which deeply attracted them.
Seeing that Lei Luo and the others finally agreed to stay, Mo Li was in a good mood, and accompanied them to translate for a while, and then walked back to the Justice Hall.
Mo Li had just walked to the Juyi Hall, when suddenly Du Geng hurriedly walked in and said, "Lord Mo, a group of people are attacking under the mountain, and the fat man has sent someone to report that the other party has a large number of people, and asks for reinforcements!" ”
"Who is attacking?" Mo Li was also a little surprised, and hurriedly shouted: "Guan Feng, gather the brothers to copy the guys and prepare for battle!" ”
"According to Xing Laojiu, the other party is another bandit from the cottage, they are a big village, there are many people, maybe four or five hundred or even more!" Du Geng said.
Mo Li said disapprerovingly: "It's just a group of rabble! No matter how many people there are, what's so scary, go, go and see! ”
Lin Guo was practicing shooting when he heard the news and ran over and said, "My lord, I'm going too!" ”
Mo Li thought about it, anyway, her marksmanship was not much different from her own, and it was enough for self-preservation, so she nodded and said, "Bring a flintlock pistol and ammunition!" ”
"Yes! My lord! Lin Guo happily replied, he could fight with adults again. At this time, Guan Feng had already gathered the soldiers who were training, brought weapons, and dozens of people rushed towards the front mountain. Mo Li asked people to bring more than a dozen flintlock pistols that they had just obtained from foreigners, because there were not many people who could shoot now, so it was useless to bring too much.
When I arrived at the front mountain, I saw a shout of killing, hundreds of bandits armed with knives, guns and sticks were storming the fat man Wei Hong and others who led more than 20 people to guard the gate of the cottage, although the terrain of Heiyunzhai was dangerous and easy to defend and difficult to attack, but after all, the other party was overwhelmed, Wei Hong was also forced to be in a hurry at this time, almost difficult to support, and the people under his command were also dead and wounded, and only a dozen or so people were left to fight.
Mo Li saw that his brothers were killed and wounded, and he couldn't help but be furious, and shouted: "Brothers, give Lao Tzu a dog day!" His grandmother's bear dares to come to Lao Tzu's territory! ”
Du Geng, Cheng Qingzhu and others led their soldiers to join the battle.
Guan Feng was about to rush over, but Mo Li grabbed him and said, "Guan Feng, come, try your marksmanship for you today!" As he spoke, he handed him a flintlock pistol.
"My lord, I don't know how to do this!"
"It's okay, just do what I taught you yesterday, just aim at those bandits and pull the trigger, look at me." As he spoke, Mo Li also picked up a long-barreled flintlock pistol, loaded the ammunition, turned on the bolt to adjust to the firing position, aimed at a bandit who was attacking with a big knife on the opposite side, and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!" A burst of smoke rose from the gunpowder, and I saw that the stout bandit suddenly screamed, was shot in the chest, was hit with a bloody hole, and then fell to the ground.
"Good! Adults are amazing! Guan Feng shouted.
"Don't be lazy, quick!" Moli shouted, randomly reloading ammo, aiming, pulling the trigger, and the action was done in one go. Another bandit fell in response.
Lin Guo also hurriedly took off the flintlock pistol, loaded and aimed according to the method taught by Mo Li, and fired. A bandit fell in response.
"Guo'er, good job!" Mo Li shouted as he continued to shoot.
Guan Feng learned from Mo Li's appearance, loaded, aimed, fired, and banged, but instead of hitting the mountain thief, he broke a branch next to the mountain thief.
"Your sister! I told you to hit someone, why did you hit the trunk? Aim and hit again! Mo Li scolded angrily.
Guan Feng smiled, didn't dare to say anything, and continued to load and aim. This time, he hit a bandit in the thigh and beat the thief to the ground, howling miserably.
"Good! Guan Feng, just do it! Mo Li gave a thumbs up, aimed at a bandit rushing in front of him, and unsurprisingly put him down again.
Mo Li, Lin Guo and Guan Feng hid behind the stones next to the mountain road, holding spears and aiming at the nearest bandits and bandits who rushed to each other, harvesting human lives again and again. Finally, the bandits couldn't calm down anymore and didn't dare to rush up anymore.
The leader of the other party was a bearded middle-aged man, with a ghost-headed knife in his hand, and at this time, seeing that Mo Li and the others were powerful foreign guns, he hurriedly shouted: "Stop!" Stop it! Brothers of Heiyun Village, listen to me! ”
Seeing this, Mo Li stood up and said loudly, "Everyone stop for the time being!" Listen to what he has to say! ”
Everyone saw that the bosses on both sides had spoken, so they stopped fighting for a while, staring at each other quietly, glaring angrily.
The bearded man stood under a big tree, guarded by several subordinates around him, and saw that he had a bare head, a thick beard on it, and two eyes like copper bells, looking very domineering. I only heard him say loudly: "The one opposite is Huang Zhenlong, Huang Da is in charge?" My Qinglong Village and your Heiyun Village have always been well water and not river water, why did you intervene yesterday and take away the goods targeted by my Qinglong Village? And killed and wounded so many of my brothers! If you don't say a sermon today, hum! ”
Mo Li sneered in his heart, good for you bearded, you guy, will you be reasonable? If you hadn't found out that Lao Tzu's musket was powerful, I am afraid that this would have been attacked by you up the mountain long ago, and the whole village would have belonged to you! It seems that you may have been thinking about how to annex Heiyun Village for a long time, and now it just gives you an excuse. Thinking of this, Mo Li sneered: "Bearded! I'm Mo Li, but it's not Huang Zhenlong, you came to attack the mountain early in the morning, and you didn't say hello, are you still reasonable?! ”
"Moli? What Moli? Isn't Heiyunzhai Huang Zhenlong the master? The bearded man said in astonishment.
"Huang Zhenlong's collusion with the government has been taken down by me. Ba Laodao, don't you want to collude with the government? Mo Li knew from Xing Laojiu's mouth that the bearded man in front of him was the big boss of Qinglong Village, Ba Lao Dao, and Qinglong Village was in a big mountain less than eighty miles away from Heiyun Village.
"Humph! If you don't use words to bluff me, how can Lao Tzu collude with the government! Let me ask you, are you in charge of Heiyunzhai now? Ba Laodao said angrily.
"Ahem, this, you can say that." Moli said.
"Good! Then let me ask you, why did you take someone to kill Lao Tzu's people yesterday? Don't you know the rules of the way? "It turned out that the thief who pretended to be dead yesterday was from Qinglong Village, and after he waited for Mo Li and the others to leave, he hurriedly ran back to the cottage to report Ba Laodao.
Yesterday? It turns out that those bandits are from your Qinglong Village, hum. "Rules? What rules? Mo Li said nonchalantly.
"Yesterday, those foreigners were the prey we discovered earlier, and since we have already started, others can't think about it anymore, otherwise they will be surrounded and suppressed by the entire green forest, but you just intervened when we started, didn't you force us to turn our faces!" Ba Laodao said coldly.
"Ba Laodao, are you blind?"
"The surname Mo, you are looking for death!"
