Chapter 4: Li Zhen's sniper rifle

In three days, the news of Yang Zhengqing's killing had spread.

At the same time, the news that Wu Qigong was about to fight also spread.

Countless generals ridiculed Wu Qigong for not being able to measure himself, and also scolded Li Zhen for looking for death. Li Zhen didn't care at all, and prepared to face the Taiping Army wholeheartedly. This is the first time he has presided over a big battle since he crossed over, and he must fight neatly and beautifully, and he must not fail. As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will win all battles, Li Zhen sent hundreds of spies to go deep into Yangzhou to find out the situation.

Next, Li Zhen began to train the soldiers under Wu Qigong.

The soldiers under Wu Qigong's command were lazy and lazy, far from reaching the point of prohibiting them. In a short period of time, it is almost impossible for Li Zhen to achieve results in training, and it is not possible to hope for these soldiers.

Therefore, Li Zhen shifted his focus to firearms.

Li Zhen asked Wu Qigong for more muskets, but learned that Qi Shan had a better gun, so he asked Qi Shan for another one.

The Qishan guards used rifled guns, which were more advanced.

The bullet fired by the rifled gun makes a rotational motion when it is fired, which has high accuracy, long range and greater power. Although the rifled gun could not meet Li Zhen's requirements, the current technology was not enough, so it could only be used. After Li Zhen got the gun, he made rough changes to the rifled gun and reinstalled a scope for long-range shooting.

In the school field, Li Zhen is preparing to test the gun.

Carrying a crude sniper rifle, he commanded, "Prepare a target of a hundred paces!" ”

At that moment, the soldier held an arrow target a hundred paces away. One hundred steps is about 80 meters, which is not far, but it is suitable for Li Zhen to test the sniper rifle in his hand. Li Zhen waved his hand to let the soldiers get out of the way, held up the sniper rifle with his left hand, leaned the butt of the rifle against his armpit, pulled the trigger with his right hand, and aimed at the target a hundred steps away.

"Bang!!"

Pull the trigger, and a muffled sound is heard.

Li Zhen rubbed his sore shoulders, the recoil of this rifled gun is a bit large, and it must be improved. But at present, Li Zhen has no skills and conditions, he strode towards the arrow target, and looked at the arrow target that hit the red heart, but it was still a little off. Li Zhen adjusted directly next to the school yard and began to calibrate the scope.

In this way, Li Zhen can hit from one hundred steps, two hundred steps, and finally two hundred and fifty steps.

Two hundred and fifty steps, it is already nearly 200 meters.

More than two hundred meters, the scope could not keep up, and the bullets and the chamber could not keep up, resulting in the bullets fired out not being accurate, so Li Zhen's current distance is 200 meters.

"Mr. Qian, General Wu, please take a trip."

"Got it!"

Li Zhen carried a sniper rifle and headed towards Wu Qigong's camp. Li Zhen came to Wu Qigong's camp and asked, "General, do you have anything to do with the last general?" ”

Wu Qigong sighed and said, "Li Zhen, He Ming has set up a stumbling block for us." ”

"Who is He Ming?" Li Zhen asked.

Wu Qigong said: "He Ming is also a general in the army, and he and I have some grievances with each other. ”

Li Zhen then asked, "General, what exactly happened?" ”

Wu Qigong looked helpless and sighed: "I just got the news that Lord Qishan is going to send you 1,200 soldiers to help us fight the bandits. ”

Li Zhen smiled: "General, this is a good thing!" ”

Wu Qigong said loudly: "What a fart, let me tell you, the problem is here." You used to be just a centurion, with a humble official position, and you didn't know anything about what was going on inside the barracks. In the Jiangbei battalion, there is a battalion of soldiers who are extremely fierce, and the soldiers in the battalion are all brave and ruthless, and it is difficult to control. The 1,200 men you are the same unruly soldiers. ”

Speaking of this, the horizontal flesh on Wu Qigong's face trembled, and he continued: "The general of this battalion of soldiers is a thousand generals, named Huang Shihai. Although Huang Shihai is only a thousand presidents, he is unruly and unruly, and no one is convinced. Even Lord Qishan can't move Huang Shihai, and throw Huang Shihai to you, this is throwing a hot potato, and if you don't get it right, you will burn yourself. ”

Li Zhen's heart moved, and he thought of the 'he' that Qi Shan and Wu Qigong talked about, and Huang Shihai was the person the two talked to. Li Zhen asked, "General, is Huang Shihai the person you mentioned to the adults?" ”

Wu Qigong nodded and said, "It's Huang Shihai." ”

Li Zhen said: "General, although it is a disaster, it is not a blessing!" ”

Li Zhen understood that it was He Ming who persuaded Qi Shan, and deliberately used Huang Shihai to deal with him, taking the opportunity to deal with Wu Qigong. But Li Zhen felt happy, because Li Zhen urgently needed to establish his own team.

Wu Qigong saw that Li Zhen was very optimistic, and said in a deep voice: "Many generals in the army want to subdue Huang Shihai, and they have also tried, but in the end they are all disgraced. He Ming also went, at that time, He Ming swore in front of adults that he would accept Huang Shihai, but in the end he was tossed by Huang Shihai to death. ”

Li Zhen asked: "Since Huang Shihai is not subject to control, why is he still kept?" ”

Wu Qigong said in a low voice: "There is a disobedient Huang Shihai in the Jiangbei camp, like a thorn stuck in the throat, the adult must be uncomfortable. But he didn't dare to remove Huang Shihai, because there were still bandits eyeing him. If Huang Shihai is withdrawn, there will be no pillars in the army, and the adults will not be able to sleep peacefully. ”

Li Zhen nodded, understanding Huang Shihai's situation.

Qi Shan didn't like Huang Shihai, but he needed Huang Shihai to maintain the situation, so he could only hide Huang Shihai. Once there was a crisis in the Jiangbei camp, Huang Shihai was allowed to fight.

As long as it is not a particularly dangerous thing, Huang Shihai only has the role of guarding the camp.

After Li Zhen listened, he became more and more excited.

If he wants to gain a foothold in the barracks, he needs a group of henchmen.

Huang Shihai is unruly, he is an alternative to the Jiangbei camp, he can't even control Qi Shan, and he is obviously isolated in the army. If Li Zhenruo subdued Huang Shihai, he was definitely a confidant.

Opportunity!

This is his chance!

Li Zhen's heart became excited, but he said calmly: "General, you lead the army to meet the bandits, and the rest of the generals are waiting for you to defeat the battle." Especially He Ming, even more so. Now He Ming took the initiative to push Huang Shihai over, which is the general's opportunity. As long as Huang Shihai has the support and has a soldier who can fight well, the general will become the pillar of the Jiangbei camp, even if He Ming and the rest of the generals want to attack the general, it is impossible to succeed. ”

Wu Qigong showed a look of emotion, but said: "That being said, it's not easy to do!" ”

Li Zhen said: "General, leave everything to the lowly position. ”

Wu Qigong took a deep breath and said, "Okay, you just let it go." As long as I serve in the military, you will not be affected. Wu Qigong stared at Li Zhen and felt that the person in front of him was not a pawn, but a person with great ambitions.

Li Zhen said excitedly: "Don't worry, the general's humble position will not disappoint the general." ”

"Hey...... What a disappointment! ”

The curtain of the tent was lifted again, and a person walked in outside the tent. Li Zhen looked up and found that the person who came was He Ming. He Ming strode in, with a faint smile on his face, and sneered: "Lord Qishan has issued an order to order Li Zhen to take over the first battalion of soldiers under Huang Shihai. Li Zhen, adults have high expectations for you, don't let them down. ”

He Ming stared at Wu Qigong with a smile, revealing a gloating expression.

This is the end of opposing him.

Li Zhen couldn't get used to He Ming's arrogant demeanor, and said in a deep voice: "General He, please tell your lordship, just say that Li Zhen will not live up to your expectations and will complete the tasks assigned by your lord." ”

After a pause, Li Zhen said again: "I heard that General He once wanted to take Huang Shihai, but unfortunately he failed to scream. Hmph, not everyone walked in like General He, and then ran out in disgrace. I, Li Zhen, will definitely live up to the expectations of adults, and I will definitely suppress Huang Shihai and train a soldier who listens to the command. ”

"Wu Qigong, let's see."

He Ming's eyes flashed with resentment, and he turned to leave.

Wu Qigong looked at He Ming's departing back and said, "Li Zhen, you shouldn't stimulate He Ming." ”

Li Zhen said: "General, do you and He Ming have any chance of reconciliation?" ”

Wu Qigong laughed dryly, knowing that reconciliation was impossible. As soon as the conversation changed, Wu Qigong said in a deep voice: "At present, our first task is to defeat the bandits. As long as the bandits who avenged Yang Zhengqing are defeated, everything is easy to say. Li Zhen, you can't relax at this time, you have to be foolproof, understand? ”

Li Zhenlang said: "The general can rest assured, he understands his humble duties." ”

"Report!"

Outside the tent, a loud voice suddenly sounded.

Wu Qigong's body shook and he was taken aback.

Li Zhen shouted calmly: "Come in!" ”

The curtain of the tent door was rolled up, and a burly man walked in. This man is burly and tall, with temples like knives, eyes like electricity, full of heaven, a straight nose, rich lips, a beard under his jaw like a steel needle, thick and powerful arms, and a round waist and broad shoulders. Standing in the big tent, it exudes a momentum like a mountain and a mountain.

Li Zhen nodded lightly, and couldn't help but praise a good man in his heart, and had a guess about this person's identity. The man looked up at Wu Qigong, his expression was grim, and his eyes were cold, which frightened Wu Qigong to take a step back unconsciously.

Wu Qigong pretended to be calm, raised his head, and shouted inwardly: "Huang Shihai, what are you doing?" ”

The corners of Li Zhen's mouth hooked, this person is really Huang Shihai, what a tiger general!
