Chapter 40: I Love This Era!
Bai Shusheng, who was playing with a short musket, smiled: "Young master, we are pirates, not the army of the court, so we don't need to line up to fight with people, we just fight broadside battles." ”
Liang Pengfei immediately understood what Bai Shusheng meant, the pirates don't like to use long muskets, they prefer that kind of short muskets, which is more in line with their ship-to-ship battles, and then slashing twice and then scolding the other party insidiously towards each other, so the pirates prefer this kind of short musket when fighting. However, the short musket was far inferior to the long gun in terms of range, which meant that what was suitable for broadside combat was not necessarily suitable for this kind of defensive counterattack.
"Our workshop here also makes most of the short muskets, and sometimes if the raw materials are not enough, we will directly use the long musket to transform." Monk Chen also replied.
"I think that this time we are fighting an island defense war, and it is better to be able to deal with them outside the range of the enemy. Therefore, I am afraid that the equipment of the brothers will have to be changed. Liang Pengfei picked up the long musket again and said in a deep voice.
"Young master, the musket is just a fire when we meet, if you want to change the length, it is better to use the artillery directly." Monk Chen chattered beside him with a puzzled expression, and several other pirate leaders also agreed.
"You don't like to use this long musket so much? You know, the range can sometimes determine the outcome of a war. And the truth is within cannon range. Liang Pengfei proudly plagiarized a famous quote from later generations.
It's a pity that although the pirate in front of him is not a straw bag, but most of them are the kind of guys whose brains are about to squeeze out their muscles, although after Liang Pengfei said this, they all nodded in agreement, but in fact, the disapproving expressions on the faces of one or two made Liang Pengfei really want to pick up the butt of the gun and open the brains of these violent and short-sighted guys.
In an open space outside the castle, Liang Pengfei first set a target of two hundred meters for the pirates to shoot with short muskets, but none of the ten shots hit, and most of the bullets fell on the halfway.
--------------------
Next, Liang Pengfei shot ten shots each with a long musket and a rifled flintlock musket (rifled flintlock musket) in front of everyone, at a distance of 200 meters, except for the two shots of the long-barreled musket that hit the target edge, all the others hit the bull's-eye, so that these pirates, who have always been unruly and think that Lao Tzu in the world will have to be the second in line even if they are the first, almost burst their eyes. looked at Liang Pengfei's respectful eyes, and there was a hint of heartfelt admiration in his eyes.
"Mother, the young master's marksmanship is much more accurate than ours." One of the pirates stared at the target that had been moved, and his jaw almost fell to the ground.
The farts of the pirates made Liang Pengfeile grin, and it took a while to suppress the pride in his heart and squeeze out a serious face. "Everyone should know, what is the narrowest part of the crab leg gorge on our King Crab Island? Thirty zhang and more than a hundred zhang wide, as long as we can arrange you on both sides of the suitable gorge, and with the range of this long-barreled musket, we can condescend and inflict great damage on those Western pirates, now you know what I mean, right? ”
"Understood, young master." Monk Chen was the first to answer with his head held high, at this time, no one dared to question Liang Pengfei's order, and they all obeyed the order, summoned his subordinates to replace the short guns in their hands with long guns, and began to take turns to practice live ammunition shooting in this open space.
Because time was running out, Liang Pengfei didn't have time for these pirates to start practicing from the basics of holding guns and hanging scales, he only asked these guys to be able to aim and fire, and still be able to calmly reload and shoot under the sound of guns.
The guns spraying flames and white smoke made Liang Pengfei in a trance, thinking that he was back on the battlefield again, this feeling made him both familiar and incomparably cordial, compared to the leisurely life in China, he preferred to run around the world, looking for some kind of spiritual stimulation, so that he felt full and could always find the truth of his existence.
Although he hung up on his own pocket, God gave him a new opportunity to come to this different time and space, and he can't help but say that this is God's favor to him.
Liang Pengfei puffed out a smoke ring, raised his head, looked at the seemingly endless blue sky and endless white clouds, as well as the seabirds that scattered and fled with the sound of gunfire, sniffing the charming gunpowder smoke and the deafening roar, and couldn't help but roar with emotion: "I love this era." ”
"What is the young master calling?" Bai Shusheng took out cotton from his ear and stabbed Monk Chen, who was wiping the barrel of the gun and preparing for the next shot.
"......" Monk Chen looked puzzled, and Bai Shusheng asked Monk Chen impatiently in a louder voice.
“…… What did you say? Monk Chen reluctantly put down the musket and tongtong, and took out cotton from his ear.
The black line on Bai Shusheng's face rolled his eyes stupidly: "I said that the young master was in a good mood today, and he seemed to be very excited when he shouted just now." ”
"Nonsense!" Monk Chen left Bai Shusheng with a back, and continued to practice marksmanship, a shot hit the bullseye two hundred meters away, but it was the target next to him, Monk Chen patted his head in annoyance, and continued to repeat the action of wiping the gun and loading.
"Damn!" Bai Shusheng angrily gestured a middle finger at Monk Chen's back, this gesture of contempt for people was also taught by the scum of Young Master Liang.
At this time, Liang Pengfei was inspecting the muskets that had been moved to the open space and distributed one after another, to be honest, there were so many models of these things that Liang Pengfei thought that he had come to the World Military Light Weapons Museum, and even the arquebuses had seven or eight models and hundreds.
"Your grandmother's, even if this thing is a shotgun, you don't need it." Liang Pengfei threw a beautifully styled antique arquebus aside like garbage and continued to select. "Scholar, pick up one of these guns for me and seal them up, and take all the others to the workshop for me to return to the furnace."
--------------------
"Young master, the princess of the ghost woman is here to find you." Bai Shusheng approached Liang Pengfei and reminded.
As soon as Liang Pengfei looked up, he saw Sister Maria walking here alone, and Lieutenant Colonel Jose and Brother Fernando were like two thieves, following them from afar.
"Dear Sister Maria, how did you get here? If there's anything I need to do for you, just ask. Liang Pengfei threw a gilded arquebus in his hand to Bai Shusheng and stepped forward, with a kind and pleasant smile, like a sunny boy who had just graduated from high school and was not deeply involved in the world.
The sunny smile made Maria dizzy for a while, and the modified smile on her face became a little more shy: "Hello, Captain Liang." ”
"No, you should call me Brother Liang, the believers of God don't care about their worldly status." Liang Pengfei repeated what Sister Maria had said very skillfully, and his eyes fell on Sister Maria's outfit today, wearing a low-necked blue dress and purple dress, the skirt and bottom edge were inlaid with black embroidered railings, and the cuffs were inlaid with white background full-color embroidered peony wide edges.
However, because it is a costume with a Chinese female surname, wearing it on Maria, a foreign girl, does have a unique flavor, and more importantly, because of the difference in figure between the East and the West, Maria's full chest seems to be about to burst the placket of the front chest, which makes Liang Pengfei almost whistle as a pervert.
Liang Pengfei's eyes that looked like a hungry beast still made her feel a little twisted, and she had a hint of pride, and she pulled the tight clothes on her body a little crampedly, and smiled sweetly: "Thank you for sending the clothes, but they are a little small." ”
"You're welcome, it is the responsibility and obligation of every gentleman to serve a beautiful woman like you. Don't worry, I'll ask them to reorder it for you, it's only temporary. Liang Pengfei turned around and walked side by side with Maria, regretting in his heart, he knew that he should have asked them to order a cheongsam overnight last night, preferably the one that was slit to the thighs, if this hot foreign girl wore a cheongsam with that sense of surname, just thinking about it, Young Master Liang felt that he almost spewed sparks out of his nostrils.
