Bang bang!

Bang bang!

Bang dang dang!

In the staggered detonation of the pistol and the shotgun, the three armored half-body targets erected at twenty paces continued to vibrate, and the armor leaves exploded, and the fragments were scattered.

"Stop!" It was not the starter who stopped drinking, but Zhao Hunt.

As Zhao Hunt's shouting stopped, the gunfire stopped suddenly, and two faces poked out from behind the chest-high chest wall: Zhang Junbao and Grasshopper.

The two teenagers each placed the test weapons such as the revolver, anti-May Fourth, three-shot shotgun, and double-barreled shotgun at their feet on the desk next to them, strode forward, saluted Zhao Lie, and said loudly: "General Yu, Zhang Junbao and Lin Dayong (grasshopper) have finished testing their firearms." ”

"Ten shots from a double-barreled shotgun, shooting normally."

"Ten shotguns fired in three bursts, eight were normal, and two were jammed."

"Ten rounds of revolver shots, shooting is normal."

"Ten shots were fired on May Fourth, nine were normal, and one was jammed."

Zhao Lie nodded, the three-shot shotgun has advantages, such as only one barrel, it can shoot three bullets in a row, but it also has shortcomings. Due to the precision of the punch is not up to standard, the produced bolt has a slight error, and when the bolt is pulled to load, the phenomenon of jamming occasionally occurs, and it takes two or even three pulls to load successfully. This will not happen with double-barreled shotguns, so even if double-barreled shotguns will consume one more barrel and can only shoot two bullets in a row, Zhao Hunt will still make them in large quantities.

Similarly, among the two types of pistols, although the revolver has slightly fewer bullets, a slightly slower reload, and is not as powerful as the May Fourth, its shooting is reliable and will not jam - don't underestimate this, it can save lives at critical moments. Therefore, in Zhao Hunt's military industrial base, the manufacturing and production of revolvers are equally important to May Fourth.

Zhao Lie randomly selected three left guns, five four, single-barreled shotguns, and double-barreled shotguns from the fifty newly produced firearms of various types, and designated Zhang Junbao and Lin Dayong for testing. Due to the scarcity and preciousness of breech guns, the production of each gun type is personally done by Guo Dajiang and his two masters, and strive not to produce a scrap, and the pass rate is 100%. As a product of the black workshop, imitation guns and gunpowder extraction cannot be compared with later generations, and what man-machine fit and accuracy cannot be desired. It can be used normally, with less jamming or less failure, Zhao Lie said that he is already very satisfied.

Satisfied with the firearm performance test, now he wants to see the results of the shooting.

Soon, three sergeants came over with three targets and lined up in front of Zhao Lie.

The three thick wooden humanoid targets are covered with half a pig, which is the skin tissue of a simulated human, and the pig skin is covered with three kinds of armor: iron armor, leather armor, and cloth armor.

Iron armor is iron leaf armor, which is usually made of two pieces of iron that are polished and smooth, about two to three millimeters thick, stacked and strung together, and tied tightly with a silk rope, which is considered a group of nail leaves. In this way, multiple groups of armor leaves are arranged, layered on top of each other, and woven into a set of armor. Such iron leaf armor can defend against sharp arrows and long-range arrows, and can also block knives and spears, but it can't withstand heavy weapons such as hammers, axes, and sticks.

Leather armor is a hard armor made of tanned nitrate, with lower defensive power than iron armor, and has a certain protection against knives and arrows, but it can't block crossbow arrows and spear spurs, and it can't resist heavy weapons and heavy attacks.

The cloth armor is to stuff several layers of rags between the two layers of cloth and compact, which has a certain protective effect on the arrows, and when the arrows enter the body, they can also be used to pull the cloth strips to facilitate the arrows. Other than that, there is no resistance to the rest of the weapons.

These three different materials of armor are the types of armor commonly equipped in the Song and Yuan dynasties, and they are also the obstacles to the newly produced guns and ammunition of the military industrial base.

First of all, the cloth armor, there is no suspense, whether it is a pistol bullet or a shotgun buckshot, it can easily penetrate, penetrate the pork tissue, and embed in the wooden target.

The second is the leather armor, which is also pierced and penetrates the pork tissue. This time there was a noticeable difference: shotgun lead bullets were embedded in the pork tissue and did not hit the wooden target; Imitation point 38 revolver 9 mm catapult through pork tissue and embedded in wooden target; The 7.62 mm bullet of the imitation 54 pistol also pierced through the pork tissue and into the wooden target, and the entire bullet was completely embedded, and it took half a day to dig with a knife. The power of the May Fourth pistol is indeed not covered.

Finally, there is the iron armor, and this time the difference is more obvious. The shotgun lead bullet deformed and fell off the iron blade, but it failed to break it; The revolver bullet broke the armor, but it did little damage to the pork, and only scratched the skin; Only five pistol bullets pierced the armor and were shot into the pork tissue.

Zhao Lie looked at it, motioned to Zhang Junbao to take a revolver, took ten steps back, and aimed at the ironclad humanoid target is a shot.

Bang! The iron blades shattered in response, and the iron filings shot in all directions. Fortunately, the guards stayed away, otherwise they would have been injured.

Zhao Lie hooked his hand, and his own guards brought the ironclad humanoid target closer. Looking at the results, the bullet finally entered the pork tissue.

"Ten steps to kill the enemy......" Zhao Lie couldn't help but be frustrated, it was too close, a black gun was a black gun, this kind of low-end imitation was not even as good as a mature breech gun.

Jiang Fenglie, who was also looking at the results on the sidelines, had another opinion: "Such a shooting distance and power are much stronger than a bow and crossbow." Most of our opponents are the Han army and the new annexed army, and there are very few people in armor, and they can be killed and injured in thirty steps. Although the Mongol army is mostly covered with leather armor and even iron armor, but at a distance of ten paces, the Mongols will abandon their bows and clash with swords and axes, and I will shoot with guns and arrows, endlessly, how can the enemy get close? ”

Of course, the effective lethality of a firearm is more than 20 steps, and 30 steps can be fatal to an unarmored target. At this time, the new annexed troops all over Fujian and Guangzhou basically had no armor or cloth armor, and basically had no protection against guns and bullets. If you are playing against the Mongols, at such a close distance, you usually have to face an enemy who is rushing towards you with cold weapons, and the guns can show their might.

Jiang Fenglie's words made Zhao Lie wake up suddenly, yes! I still have too little battlefield experience, and I put too much emphasis on shooting distance, but I forget that a pistol is actually a melee weapon. In World War II, wasn't the pistol the best weapon to deal with the Japanese army's white-knuckle warfare?

Besides, how many people can afford to equip the new annex army of fourth-class minions with such a luxury as iron armor? And their main opponent is the new annexed army.

At that time, the layout of the Mongol and Yuan forces in the whole country was "to defend Gyeonggi with the Mongol army, to defend Heluoguan and Shaanxi with the Tanma Red Army, and to scatter the new annexed army in various parts of the south of the Yangtze River". From Jiangnan to Lingnan, there were very few real Mongol troops, basically all of them were Han troops and new annexed soldiers, and their wooden shields and cloth armor were defenseless in the face of bullets.

The new annexed army of the ninth CD is the Song army of the Yuan Dynasty, and their combat methods are also based on bows and crossbows, and after approaching the middle and short ranges, they are basically based on bows and arrows.

Thirty steps are the distance between the gun and the bow and arrow, the gun has no advantage in distance, but there are three incomparable advantages of the bow and arrow: one is concealment, the gunner does not need to make any action, can shoot after the strong protective fortifications, and the arrow must poke out of the body, exposed to the blow of the bullet. The second is lethality, the arrow misses the vital point, and the arrow is still alive after being drawn, and the bullet is shot into the body, and the warhead is almost impossible to take out with the low level of surgery in this era. There are only two consequences, either amputation or death. The third is the continuous fire, the importance of continuous shooting in battle, ancient and modern, otherwise the ancient samurai would not have worked hard to train the continuous arrows and regarded them as archers. It's just that the difficulty of the arrows is extremely high, and it is difficult to find one among a thousand archers. Anyone armed with a pistol or shotgun can fire rapid fire in bursts, easily killing the archer in seconds.

As for melee, it's all about pistols......

Of course, if I hurt the enemy, the enemy can also hurt me. With the resources at hand of Zhao Lie, it was obviously impossible to equip each sergeant with iron armor or leather armor, but it was still no problem to make a batch of heavy shields. Taking advantage of the concealment of the breech gun, it is completely possible to kill and injure the enemy without worrying about being injured by the enemy's arrows and throwing weapons.

After Jiang Fenglie woke up with a word, Zhao Lie's thinking diverged and he couldn't take it back for a while. After a while, he suddenly felt that the air was quiet, came back to his senses, and looked at the guards around him who were looking nervously at him, Zhao Lie laughed, patted the bullet-riddled pork, and instructed the guards: "Dig out the bullets, boil a few pots of pork soup, and add vegetables tonight." ”

The guards cheered.

Before the cheers fell, a messenger with a red flag on his back in the distance rushed to him.

Looking at the figure of the messenger soldier getting closer and closer and his tense expression, even if he had been mentally prepared, Zhao Lie's heart still inevitably sank, could it be that the words really came......
