Chapter 586: Chen Ming's Gun

"Big brother, put on a show again......"

Looking at the darts on the target three feet away, several children surrounded Chen Ding. The children of the Chen Han royal family www.biquge.info did not have such a hard study life as the former Qing elder brother, and Chen Ming gave the children more freedom in their daily life. But after leaving the early childhood, that is, after the age of ten, all the children of the royal family entered the boy scout camp for a month as a boy scout.

In other words, Chen Ding has been a boy scout for three months. This skill of throwing darts was learned by Chen Ding from the boy camp with his team officers. Although the officer was a year younger than him. But in the eyes of the team officers, Chen Ding's fine skin and tender flesh, trained in the boy camp, are the children of the powerful, and their real ability is not half of that of the 'veterans' of the same age.

Sending children who have just left the early childhood stage to the children's camp for short-term training started from the royal family, and then quickly swept the top level of the entire Chen Han. Those who have just walked through the war, ascended to high positions, and enjoyed glory and wealth, no one wants to watch their children become uneducated and unskilled. It's just that they can let their children go to the semi-military management of Chengjun Public School, but no one wants to throw their children into the boy boy camp.

Chen Han has been established for three years, and it has been six years since he sat in the south of the Yangtze River, and although the scale of the boy camp has not been expanded, the system and interior are much stronger than before. In addition to maintaining a high level of military training, they have an increasing share of time in culture and art, and a certain amount of security in life, and it can be seriously said that the overall quality of a large part of these children is better than that of school students of the same age, especially those who can be captains among them. They were among the best people in the camps all over China.

Chen Ding is very proud of being alone. When he was a child, he didn't show it, although he felt that he had a lot of rights when he was a child, but it was his father and his grandfather who had greater rights. But when he grew up a little bit older, Chen Ding felt that he was noble.

This nobility is not simply embodied in power, but more in the glory of blood.

He knew what an astonishing feat his father had done, and he could realize how difficult it was to trample this prosperous alien dynasty at a time when his rule was so stable that the development of an alien dynasty was at its peak.

Chen Ding felt that his father's achievements were greater than Zhu Hongwu, who was very respected by his father, and he was the eldest son of such a founding king, and his father's closest blood flowed in his body......

Chen Ding's sense of nobility because of glory made him himself become a kind of 'arrogant' self-esteem. At that time, Chen Ding did not accept any 'inferior people', and he didn't know if the current 'boy camp training' was because of his thoughts and attitudes at that time, and directly urged his father to 'be ruthless'.

One month during the summer vacation of that year, he was thrown by his father into a boy boy camp in Weihai, Shandong Province. For a whole month, Chen Ding suffered the biggest setback since he could remember.

physical strength, he is far from being comparable to some BT; marksmanship, swimming sports, worse; The grappling fighting can only be regarded as inferior, and the reason why he did not fall to the bottom is because Chen Ding's physique is really good, and he is indeed practical when he trains at school on weekdays. His training level should be among the best in the boys' camp, but when he was fighting in battle, Chen Ding lacked ruthlessness. At that time, none of the scout soldiers in the boy boy camp knew his identity as the noble eldest son of the emperor. Then he was very serious, so serious that Chen Ding only got inferior in martial arts training.

Even in cultural classes, Chen Ding can only remain average. The children in the camp are people who have suffered a hard time, and they know very well how hard their lives are now, and cultural learning is not an ordinary effort.

Compared with the boy soldiers in the Weihai Boy Boy Camp Camp, Chen Ding's only one of the top scores was his equestrianism.

In the first month, Chen Ding's careful liver was hit unwanted, and the boy camp used the facts to make him realize a fact, he is awesome, and he himself is not necessarily awesome.

Chen Ding has seen with his own eyes that his father can play with a stone lock weighing 100 catties is the same as playing with a wooden pole, but he can't even play with a stone lock of 30 catties. Chen Ming's BT power has not been passed on to the next generation. The blows came in waves, but they also really woke up Chen Ding.

Chen Ding, a childhood memory in Lushan, has not forgotten, before the Chinese New Year's Eve, their family worked hard to rush to the mountain, kneeling down to worship the ancestral tablet of Xiaonangou, everything is very clear, their Chen family has been ordinary ordinary people for hundreds of years.

From the lessons of the first boy boy camp training, to the second winter boy camp training, and then to the wild survival training of the Hainan boy camp this summer, three months is not a long time for a thirteen-year-old boy, but it is enough to leave indelible traces on Chen Ding's life path.

Chen Ding's darts are not the game-hobby darts of later generations, but standard darts, just like arrow feathers. If it hits someone, it will kill him.

Chen Ding learned this hand with the captain, and in the assessment of survival training in the wild, he relied on the darts of this hand to hit the two-word seabird, and supported it to the end.

He didn't say much, just raised his hand casually, and the three darts had formed a standard triangle at the bull's-eye three feet away.

Not only did the children applaud at this scene, but even the smiling guards next to them had their eyes wide open.

And just when a few children were playing, in the same palace, a design built by Chen Ming after succeeding to the throne was built, and Chen Ming looked at the gun target a hundred meters away with an ugly face. His eyesight was good, so he was able to clearly see that there were only four black holes on the target from a hundred meters away. He, just missed the target? "There's definitely something wrong with this gun!" Feeling a little embarrassed, Chen Ming threw the gun on the ground in annoyance.

He's a veteran of guns, though he'd never had the luxury of hitting anything with a smoothbore before. But this time it's different, this time it's a test shot of a new gun, a rifled gun.

Fire cap rifled gun!

Chen Ming felt that he could not only hit the bull's-eye with five guns in a row, but also drag the target two or three hundred meters away, and still hit. Because his eyes have excellent vision.

But the reality made him feel quite ugly, and the highest shot of the five shots was only seven rings, and he missed the target by one ring.

Chen Ming threw the gun to the ground, and in a blink of an eye, he saw that the first and second guns had been loaded. Regardless of his level, the quality of this gun is still good.

Chen Zhongda walked off the field with an unconcealable smile on his face. I didn't expect that His Majesty the Emperor was wise and martial, and his marksmanship was not ordinary. This is a first-class gun carefully selected by the military industry department, and Chen Zhongda can shoot more accurately than Chen Ming even if he closes his eyes.

Although Chen Zhongda himself had left the front-line battlefield two years ago, when a rifled gun was in his hands, the momentum made everyone around him secretly awe-inspiring.

He was the first sharpshooter of the Chen family and the leader of the first batch of snipers.

After many years on the battlefield, he always stayed in the sniper unit. Even if the level of many people in the current sniper unit of the Fu Han Army has surpassed him, Chen Zhongda's name is destined to leave a strong mark in the history of the Fu Han Army.

"Smack!" A crisp gunshot rang out. On the top of a street lamp more than 100 meters away from the target of the gun, a small sparrow that had been knocked off its head fell down. There was also a trace of blood on the snow-white lamppost.

Then in front of Chen Ming, Chen Zhongda quickly loaded the bullet and buckled the copper fire cap......

"Eleven seconds?" Chen Ming looked at the recorder on the side to get the data.

"It can be as fast as 10 seconds. The average shooter, on the battlefield, three shots a minute is not a problem. "The rate of fire of the current front-loading smoothbore flintlock pistol is in the same grade, but the combat performance of the two sides is not the same at all.

"For a sniper, a new rifle in hand is within range of 500 meters."

And with a coverage range of 500 meters, even many small-caliber artillery pieces have to be threatened by this new rifle.

Chen Zhongda had enough of the difficulty of reloading rifled guns at the beginning, and he really loved the rifled guns that were now new rifles, and the loading speed was completely comparable to that of smoothbore guns. And the power of this new rifled gun is much greater than that of the old rifled guns of the past, in terms of penetrating power.

"Your Majesty. This rifle is now fully mature, and if it is equipped with troops, it will be unimaginably huge for the increase in the combat effectiveness of our army. Chen Quan felt that if this kind of weapon was generally equipped with troops, 10,000 people would be enough to beat 30,000 people. If you put it in the north and the great northwest, how much money can this save the country?

"What's the hurry. What guns do foreigners use? "It would be a great waste if such a good treasure did not give the enemy a 'fatal blow' at the most critical moment.

Chen Ming ordered the military system to officially launch the breech gun program last year, but the latter is obviously somewhat decoupled from the technology of the current era, even if Chen Ming proposed the concept of needle attack, it is far from fruitful in less than a year.

"Order to the Praetorian Guards, as well as to the Nanyang Marine Corps to replace the musket guns."

It was the winter of 1777, and I don't know where the mission led by Gao Yanming went. Chen Ming didn't know when the French would go to the troubled waters of North America. But his intuition told him that this point in time was not far off. Because of the victory in Saratoga, because of the turning point of the battle in the British colonies of North America on September 19, 1777. This battle was the victory of Saratoga, and more than 7,000 British troops under the leadership of Bai Gaoying rushed headlong into the hinterland of the thirteen states, and finally more than 5,000 British troops and six British generals surrendered.

This battle is defined in the history textbooks of the previous time and space as a turning point in the Thirteen States' War of Independence.

Although Chen Ming has a lot of confusion and ambiguity about the North American Revolutionary War, some things can be connected.

The French had such a grudge against England, but until now France had not really intervened in the war. But Chen Ming also knew that the Gallic rooster would eventually fight John Bull in person, and the Spaniards were dragged in the middle. So when did the French decide to go down?

Chen Ming didn't know this point in time, but he remembered the time of Saratoga. Since this war is considered to be a turning point in the North American War, it is very likely that the additional significance of it is that the French entered the war.

This is a decisive battle between the militia of the thirteen states of North America and the regular army of the British, and the thirteen victorious states of North America have shown the French their strength and given the confidence that the French who are about to move need most at this moment.

Therefore, Chen Mingcai asked Gao Yanming to lead the delegation to Europe at the end of last year, and he also connected India and the Ottomans along the way.

And in this way, a very simple reality is placed in front of Chen Ming.

Luzon for the Spaniards, Manila for the Spaniards. This piece of fat is placed in front of Chen Ming, if he doesn't bite it down and eat it at such a good time, Chen Ming is a fool.

At this time, he wants to change the equipment of the Nanyang troops, and the fire cap gun will make the combat effectiveness of the Nanyang Marine Corps increase by one or two times compared with the current one, because the Nanyang Marine Corps equipped with the fire cap gun will no longer have to be afraid of the frequent rain in the Nanyang area.

It's not that this cap gun can really continue to fire in heavy rainstorms, but compared to the resistance of wind and rain, the fire cap gun is much better than the flintlock pistol of the past tense.

……

An exploration ship from the Second Overseas Exploration Bureau is sailing on the vast sea. The weather was bad for the past two days, and I couldn't see the moon and stars at night, and I couldn't see the sun at night. Driving dazedly on the lonely ocean, if it weren't for the abundance of water and food in the boat, it would be really creepy.

In the cabin, Zhu Wu was holding a novel and reading it with relish. Today's emperors are very fond of novels, and servants like Cao Xueqin have been praised by the emperor himself because of a book of "The Story of Stones". Moreover, the rapid development of China's domestic newspaper industry in recent years has also given novels a certain market space, and China's domestic novels have also developed very well in recent years.

Zhu Wu likes to take out a novel to pass the time when he is bored. He gave up a bright future with Chen Jigong and chose to become an explorer and explore unknown places around the world. It's just a pity that the second bureau, which has the best conditions and the largest investment among the four exploration bureaus, has not achieved anything in the past few years.

Sailing on the sea needs something to kill time, and Zhu Wu has no other hobbies, which is reading books and writing letters. In his letters to the author, he would express his love or anger in an impassioned tone. Because of this, he even made two author friends.

After reading the book in front of the light for half an hour, Zhu Wu closed the novel.

"I'll see you then, it's time to go and make a round......"

As he spoke, he lit the wind lamp hanging on the side, opened the hatch and prepared to go to the cockpit. However, he had barely walked out of the captain's cabin when he saw his first mate running over in a panic.

Zhu Wu still knows a lot about his deputy, who was once a member of the Southeast Water Division, and the war made him lose three fingers, experienced a lot of things, and finally became his reliable assistant. Zhu Wu had never seen the first mate so flustered, in other words, the only thing that could make this well-informed first mate so flustered was the big thing......

A hint of foreboding rose in Zhu Wu's heart.

"What's wrong......

"Captain, we're in trouble. Lightning appeared on the surface of the sea for more than ten miles ahead, and lightning kept coming. We've been caught in a storm......" Zhu Wu's face sank, something that no one at sea wanted to touch. "Is there a way to avoid it......" Once in the storm, no one dares to guarantee whether the ship will be able to hold out.

"I'm afraid there is no ......" is too close. It's night, and it's too close when I find out. (To be continued.) )
