The convoy was taken before they could get close to the city walls, and although they had equipment comparable to that of the regular European army, they still couldn't adapt to the special operations team's style of playing that suddenly came out of the calm rice fields. No one was killed, but the entire team was pressed to the ground in an extremely uncomfortable position.

A foreigner shouted hoarsely, but his Chinese was so poor that no one in the special operations team could understand what he said. Still, he confiscated all their belongings, tied them up into hairy crabs, and then took their strange weapons and went to report them to Goxinga.

Guo Xing'a was a little stunned when he saw the weapons captured by the special operations team, and this kind of chicken rib weapon is a famous weapon in the history of the revolver rifle. In the years when there was no metal fixed ammunition and it was impossible to get a rear-loading gun, the revolver weapon was undoubtedly the best choice to increase the rate of fire,* as the best proof of this. But the enlarged version of the revolver is not as good as the penis, there are too many faults with this thing, and whoever uses it is unlucky.

Jamming bullets and exploding chambers are trivial matters, and the most terrible thing is the explosion. Because of the problem of craftsmanship, when firing, the * in the runner may ignite all six bullets at once, and all six rounds will be out after firing one shot. The left hand in front of him must be useless, and his face and eyes cannot be saved. * The most injured hands in accidents, but the rifle has to be put on the face, and it is light to become a one-eyed dragon.

During the American Civil War, the army was armed with thousands of Colt revolvers, which were bought for forty-two dollars, and sold for forty-two cents after a while. This thing is too bad, and if you fire a volley at the enemy, you will lie down on your side, and no one can stand it.

Although the gun is a bit of a chicken rib, you can tell who is coming by looking at this guy, Peter's cousin has arrived. Guo Xinga immediately ordered the release of the people, and at the same time prepared a condescending banquet.

Big Peter, who was released, didn't react in any way, as if he was used to such treatment. Maybe this arms dealer has also been arrested by the Taiping Army before.

After a simple courtesy, Peter the Great showed his sincerity.

"Dear General, thank you for rescuing my brother Francesco, and to prove his identity and to express my gratitude to you, I have sent you a modest gift, I hope you will enjoy it." Big Peter's accent is uncomfortable, but his smile is very bright.

"Here's a hundred *, American-made, Remington-branded goodies you want, and ammunition for this car." Guo Xing'a set up a banquet in the city gate hole of the Drum Tower, and Big Peter could directly pull his carriage to introduce it to Guo Xing'a.

"Thank you, your gift makes me very happy, and when you leave, I will also let you bring a gift that will make you happy!" Guo Xing'a picked up a few pistols and looked at them, they were much better than the rags he was using now.

"Can Colt get it? I heard that it was the best! Goxinga asked.

"Honorable General, praise you for your erudition, but this Remington pistol is the latest product, better than Colt." Big Peter didn't expect Goxinga to know about Colt.

"What's so good?" Goxinga had already picked one for himself and put it in his holster.

"First of all, the Remington pistol has a magazine back plate to ensure that you are safer when you use it. Moreover, Remington's body and barrel closure design are stronger than Colt's open, and the loading position opening is also more convenient than Colt. And it has a more important design, you know that it is almost impossible to reload the revelor in battle, and the soldiers can only carry multiple guns to solve the problem. And Remington is arguably the world's first pistol with a quick revolver, and as long as you are familiar with the action, it can definitely surprise you with its replacement speed. "Big Peter is definitely a qualified arms dealer who knows his products well and understands the disadvantages of competing products.

"Yes! Not bad! "Guo Xinga tried to change the wheel, and it was very convenient.

"The boxes here are all spare wheels given to your soldiers, all of them are original, and there is no cutting corners in the slightest." Big Peter pointed to several other boxes.

"Thank you!" Goxinga now looks at Big Peter, how to look at it, how pleasing to the eye.

"Of course, I need to apologize to you, I didn't find the metal cartridge you wanted, and if you don't mind, I'd like to take the liberty of asking, what's the use of that thing." Peter only focuses on what's hot.

"Ugh! …… That's all I heard! "The current mainstream weapons can't be loaded with metal ammunition, and Guo Xing'a is actually going to study it, and he can't tell Big Peter that this thing is the trend of the future.

"But to make up for it, I bring you this, this is our latest Italian product, and of course we are imitations of the Spanish brainchild." Peter the Great opened the boxes on the last two wagons.

Looking at the whole two trucks of revolver rifles, Guo Xing'a didn't know how to face it, this thing is not a pity, it is dangerous to use, it is indeed a chicken rib.

"I've heard that this thing doesn't have a very good airtight and is very dangerous to use! I heard that there is a Henry rifle in the United States, and if you can get me a batch, I have a good price. "Goxing Ah doesn't want this thing, but he wants a rear-loading bead gun. Guo Xinga knows that Henry has a gun after loading, but this thing is relatively unpopular, although Guo Xinga remembers that it is a recent product, but whether it is there or not now, it is really hard to say.

"Dear General, please don't believe the rumors, I am willing to shoot all the weapons in front of your interview to prove to you that they are safe." Big Peter also spelled.

These guns are made in Italy, but the design drawings are Spanish, and only God knows whether Spain copied the American Colt. In Italy, a batch of small quantities was only produced as an experiment, and Peter the Great, who was specially tinkering with strange weapons in East Asia, naturally wanted to purchase some of them.

But once practiced, this thing was similar to Colt's performance on the American battlefield, and death squads had to be set up to test guns, and Big Peter naturally couldn't sell it in his hands. But the merchant must not suffer such a bitter fruit, and of course Big Peter did not give up. There happened to be a batch of damaged Remington pistols, and Big Peter made a major rebuild. After dismantling the damaged Remington, he began to add parts to the revolver, and after some tossing, although the amount of work was almost equivalent to redesigning the rifle, the problem was finally solved. It's a pity that the reputation of this baby is too stinky, and no one wants to fix it. After pondering and meditating, Big Peter found a buyer who wanted everything—the Taiping Army.

When he saw the messenger, Big Peter almost cried to death, his lovely brother was caught, and the cuter buyer was also killed by the government army. However, after hearing that Goxinga was also going to buy a gun, Big Peter instantly wiped away his tears. Add pistols to the list of goods of the Taiping army and continue to set off, otherwise how could he have rushed over so quickly. And those reels are not giveaways, they are removed from those bad guns.

"Can't you handle the Henry rifle?" Goxinga didn't want Big Peter to die with these chickens.

"The Henry rifle will be available, but please take a look at the boutique in front of us first!" Big Peter couldn't give it up, and these chicken ribs were equivalent to a quarter of his fortune.

"Okay!" Goxinga couldn't bear to refute the face of this potential supplier.

Big Peter has put a lot of effort into these chicken ribs, first installing all the magazine backplates to solve the problem of air leakage at the rear. Then all of them were replaced with fixed ammunition to avoid the occurrence of explosions. However, his fixed ammunition is not the kind of all-metal cartridge case, but a waxed paper cartridge case with a metal primer, which is removed and fired directly into the primer.

Although it seems that Big Peter has creatively solved all the problems, the transformation results are not very satisfactory. * The mouth was replaced with a back plate that had little impact, but the already small caliber was changed to fixed ammunition, and the power was reduced not a little. Originally, the range of the revolver was much lower than that of the closed rifle, but the Great Peter changed it even lower, and now the effective range of these rifles is about 15 meters, and the cost of those paper ammunition is not low. On the battlefield, if someone shoots 800 meters and you shoot 15 meters, you will definitely be suppressed by the other party. If someone pays five cents a shot, and you shoot six cents a piece, even if you win, you will have to go bankrupt.

After watching Big Peter toss around, Goxinga noticed the problem with these guns, but he didn't care. These guns can't be used as rifles, but they can be very good*. Goxinga is not ready to equip the whole army with this thing, only the special combat team, the guard squad, the assault company and other melee units are equipped. Long-range combat has infantry on top, and what they need is weapons with a high rate of fire, mobile and easy to carry, and these modified chicken ribs are just right. And because it was changed to fixed ammunition, the charge was much smaller, and it was not very harmful even if this thing really exploded.

Of course, Guo Xinga can't be optimistic, so he eats it in one bite, of course he has to take a handful. Guo Xing'a is not very knowledgeable among the Chinese, but this foreign profiteer obviously cannot do anything to the Chinese in this regard. After some bargaining, Goxinga saw the face of his precious friendship with Big Peter, and took the tattered in Big Peter's hands at cost price.

Big Peter, who was finally able to get out, was excited and gave Goxinga twenty remingtons of his escort, anyway, these guns were confiscated by Goxinga, and God knows if Goxinga would return them.

After the banquet, the guests and hosts of both sides enjoyed themselves, and determined the intention of long-term cooperation in the future. Peter the Great actively sells a large number of unsalable rifles in Shanghai to Goxinga, but the whole army is already equipped with rifled guns, and there is still a surplus of Goxinga in the warehouse, and he is not interested in the tatters of the Napoleonic era. Goxinga was willing to pay a high price for the breech gun, but Big Peter couldn't get it, and the next step of cooperation between the two sides was difficult for a while.

"General, you love the rate of fire of weapons, I can help you get some more rifles with such excellent rate of fire." The more than 200 revolver rifles he bought for Goxinga are only part of Big Peter's inventory, and he still has a lot of unmodified revolver rifles in his warehouse!

"Mr. Peter, I don't want it, this thing is not practical, I accept this for the sake of our friendship!" Goxinga toasted Big Peter with a glass of wine, which was a bit enough.

"What more can I do for you!" Big Peter saw the money that Goxinga paid him, boxes of real money that Goxinga had snatched from the Taiping army, and Big Peter had already listed Goxinga as a VIP customer.

"I think we can continue to develop our friendship on artillery!" Goxinga couldn't get a gun, and of course turned his attention to artillery.

"You like advanced weapons, and advanced cannons, it's not so easy to get." Big Peter had a bitter face, he could get artillery, but the antiques of ten or twenty years ago, Guo Xing'a would definitely not pay. He had already discovered that Guo Xing'a knew a lot about weapons, and there was basically no way to sell them to him.

"Nitric acid, glass powder, fire pipe...... Guo Xing'a proposed a plan for basic items.

"That's fine!" Big Peter agreed.

"You seem to have a younger brother...... After the business was negotiated, Guo Xing'a remembered that the arms dealer in front of him seemed to have come to ransom people.

"Really?" Big Peter, who was thinking about profits, also remembered that he seemed to have a younger brother.
