The cadets of the senior command class have not yet graduated, and they still lack Li Yi's last class, and all the 50,000 soldiers trained in the entire base have changed their uniforms, and even the 30,000 child soldiers of the military academy have changed their camouflage uniforms.

The army school has also been approved by the imperial court, and after the construction of the new military school in the eastern suburbs is completed, it will be merged with the Guangzhou Navy Academy to form a navy and army school.

The scale of the Eastern Suburbs Military Academy is very large, and Li Yi's plan is to make the headquarters of the new army also hidden in the military academy, so that those yellow-haired, big-nosed foreigners can also have an explanation.

The Logistics Department has already begun preparations for the establishment of a logistics headquarters and the reorganization and training of troops. The armament department is also urgently practicing new tactical tactics, and everything is on track, but only the arsenal is not very strong and pulls back.

Sihai Trading Company Industrial Park in the southern suburbs of Guangzhou, which is the industrial base of Sihai Group in China, is hidden in the mountains, and dozens of kilometers within a radius of dozens of kilometers have been bought by the trading company.

Many factories have been put into production in the inland area of the industrial park, but he is not known to the people of Guangzhou, and even Zhang Zhidong is deeply mysterious here.

Forty percent of the people in the industrial park are foreigners from all over the world, that is, the workers recruited in China are secretly recruited from all over the country through the Ghost Society, and the guards of the industrial park are even more strict, and all the 3,000 musketeers of Zuolong were stationed in the industrial park as security guards.

On the hills around the industrial park, under the cover of trees, there are dense outposts and forts. The defensive force here is a little light, and this is the foundation and hope of Li Yi in the country!

In the arsenal, the factory director's office was crowded with people, and Li Yi's frenzy just now made everyone's faces not look very good. Although everyone's faces are not good-looking, but no one has spoken out to refute Li Yi, although they think that Li Yi's idea is very naïve, it is simply a scientific white, the success of any technology needs to be accumulated little by little, and a handful of technology is not called technology, it is called a unique skill!

Everyone came from far away Western countries to this Qing Dynasty, which is like a desert island for the scientific community, because there is a person like Li Yi who attaches great importance to scientific research, and there is such a boss who burns money without scruples, let alone heard of it, there is no direct one!

Parker just wanted to stand up and explain, but was stopped by Merkel: "Boss, we all understand your feelings, you are a very generous person who attaches great importance to scientific research, but I still can't help but say a word about you, you have a genius imagination, but you are a scientific white!" ”

Li Yi was commented on by Merkel so bluntly, the corners of his mouth twitched, this bastard didn't save face for himself at all, he was also their boss anyway, and seeing everyone's smiling expressions, he felt that his face was hot, "It's okay, if you want to laugh, squirt out, don't hold back, I'm still counting on you!" ”

There were really a few people who couldn't help but burst out laughing when they saw Li Yi being deflated, but it was okay to laugh, and the tense atmosphere in the office was reduced a lot.

Merkel also felt that she had not saved face for the boss, and smiled: "Boss, you are the best boss we have ever met, and you can see how much we like you!" ”

Li Yi hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head: "No! No! No! I'm a normal person! ”

Everyone laughed, and Parker stepped up, "Boss! Let me tell you what we like about you, you also understand that we people did not come to the Qing Dynasty for money at all, we came here purely because we were attracted by the advanced theoretical knowledge you gave us, and after coming here, we were shocked by your generous investment in scientific research, and rejoiced! ”

"I think you are the only person in the world who can support scientific research regardless of the cost and investment!" Everyone nodded in agreement.

"But scientific research is not achieved overnight, in just over half a year, our entire scientific research team has achieved remarkable results, if we make it public, I believe it will cause a sensation in the whole world!"

"In the United States, we built 200,000 tons of refrigerated ships last year, this year is now the world's first large ship installed with heavy oil (diesel) engines, if successful our engine technology will lead the world, our new ship also has a big feature, that is, the application of welding technology, although the welding effect is not as ideal as you say, but as a commercial ship the application has been completely OK. Alternating current has become widely used in the United States, and telephones have also made great progress. ”

"In the Qing Dynasty, we have carried out a new ratio of gunpowder, and the bullets produced in the future can be reduced by 20% under the condition that the indicators are not reduced, and the shells are made much more powerful after the use of new explosives. The mass production of new rifles and mortars, the success of repeating heavy guns, the achievements of various scientific research departments, etc. As soon as Parker's words fell, the applause of the crowd rang out.

Li Yi usually doesn't pay attention to this place at all, and he didn't expect that in a year, the scientific research institute has achieved a lot of scientific research results, "Okay, I apologize to you, I'm a little anxious." Li Yi said sincerely.

"Boss, it's not your fault, we also understand you, and we are also attracted by the scientific research materials you give us, such as the kind of plane that can fly in the sky, the kind of car that can speed on the road car, the kind of steel fortress that can go on a rampage, etc., are the goals that our researchers strive for!" Merkel said with a look of yearning.

"Yes, I hope that all these great inventions can be invented from our research institute, from your hands!" Li Yi said.

"Haha!" Merkel smiled and said seriously: "The mortar you require should weigh less than six kilograms, which is impossible for us to achieve now, and it is impossible to achieve these requirements of yours without the birth of corresponding new materials, although we are facing great difficulties, but we still limit the weight of the 60-mm mortar to ten kilograms, which I am sure is at least one kilogram lighter than the mortar on the German drawings you handed me." ”

"We have controlled the weight of the repeating heavy machine gun within sixty-five kilograms, which can no longer be lighter, and the barrel is also actively improving, and the current barrel has been able to support two hundred rounds of continuous fire, which is still far from the continuous shooting of a thousand rounds of barrel you require, and the light machine gun within ten kilograms is even more out of reach. It is impossible to forge a barrel of steel at once, there are so many things involved in it that I can't explain to you in detail, but our arsenal and the entire scientific research team will guarantee that they will be ready within twenty years. ”

"Twenty years?" Li Yi was a little disappointed, Li Yi didn't mean that he couldn't wait for these twenty years, but that he was afraid that he couldn't wait for these twenty years: "Parker, Merkel, I want to ask you, is it possible for Europe and the United States to develop these things of ours in advance?" ”

"Europe can't be!" Parker and Merkel both said confidently: "America? It would be even more impossible, the Civil War there had just ended, and it was very chaotic, and to say that they were just a bunch of peasants at best, no better than the Qing Dynasty. ”

"Well, I agree with you to produce double-layer tubular steel cannons for artillery, but require that the cannons you produce cannot be worse than those in Europe." Li Yi said a little helplessly: "No matter what method you use for the steel pipes of the heavy machine guns, you have to guarantee to me that they can withstand the firing of three hundred bullets in a row!" ”

In fact, there is now a heavy machine gun, that is, the Makqin water-cooled heavy machine gun, its caliber is 11.43 mm, the gun weighs 27.2 kg, the barrel is short recoil automatic mode, water-cooled barrel, the use of 333 rounds of 6.4 meters long canvas cartridge belt feed, the cartridge belt can be continued, the theoretical rate of fire is 600 rounds / min, can be single, continuous shooting; It can also be adjusted to a slow rate of fire of 100 rounds per minute via the rate of fire regulator.

"Boss, you can rest assured of this, we guarantee that the heavy machine gun produced will be much more advanced than the Maxim machine gun, because our materials are not up to standard, miniaturization can not be produced, but we decided to redesign a heavy machine gun, we use 12.7 mm caliber, or adhere to the development of air-cooled, the use of rubber and plastic belt to feed ammunition, other data we do not know, but we guarantee that its weight is controlled within 20 kilograms, plus the base bracket will not exceed 50 kilograms." Merkel said confidently.
