When Lin Hanlin met at the Governor's Palace, Lin Haijiang almost turned the backyard of the Lin Mansion into a small arsenal, from the old-fashioned Shaba breech arquebus, to the British Cortry breech musket, to the French Mossen rifled rifle, and even the most advanced Henry linkage rifle and Henry lever rear loading metal cartridge rifle.

Yang Tianhua, Wang Dongxu and others accompanied Lin Haijiang After completing several rounds of test firing, Lin Haijiang listed the advantages and disadvantages of each gun one by one, and the old-fashioned Xiaba breech arquebus was directly eliminated by Lin Haijiang.

Lin Haijiang knew that due to the Crimean War, the breech-loading rifled rifle rifle was bound to become the mainstream firearm in the future.

The Henry rifle was fed with a cartridge stick, and the bullet was embedded with a propellant and a mercury primer, and its effective range was only 150 yards, which was much worse than the 220 yards of the Terry breech rifle pistol, and it would be a suicide to play against the 410 yards effective range of the French Mawson rifled rifle.

In Lin Haijiang's memory, the world's first rear-loading gun, the Dreiser firing pin rear-loading gun, was invented by the Prussian ordnance worker von Dreiser. This gun is at the same time a firing gun. As soon as the trigger is pulled, a long firing pin passes through the bottom of the cartridge, inserts the explosive, pierces the **, triggers the explosive explosion, and fires the projectile. The rapid loading of the breech and the high rate of fire brought about by the firing of the rifle made the Drezer a superior weapon, and in 1840 it was equipped with the Prussian army.

The appearance of percussion thunder caps was made possible thanks to the discovery of a compound called mercury thunder acid or mercury ray. The chemical formula of the compound is Hg(onc)2, it is composed of mercury, nitric acid, and ethanol, the explosive surname of mercury thunderate is very strong, and it is very sensitive to shocks. A quick impact or even a hard push with your fingers can cause it to detonate. A small amount of mercury thunderate is placed in a prefabricated cap (about the size of a rubber, metal cap), and the cap is attached to the nozzle and the tube into the barrel, which ignites the gunpowder in the barrel.

Historically, during the American Civil War, both the Northern and Southern Confederates used ramming thundercap guns extensively, because the breech loading rifle was expensive, and the southern states with agriculture as the main and the northern states where the arms industry was still starting, so it was natural that the American Civil War became a hypermarket for obsolete weapons in countries around the world, so in most American Civil War movies, by 1863, the main rifle used by the northern and southern states was still a front-loading rifled rifle.

In the end, the only surname can have an advantage in all aspects, and the only thing that can satisfy Lin Haijiang for the time being is the Henry Rear Metal Bullet Shell Rifle.

Historically, the warring parties began to install some rear-loading metal cartridge firing rifles in the late Crimean War, but they still could not effectively prevent the opposing cavalry from concentrating on the assault.

On the plains, it would have required at least twice as much cavalry and a considerable amount of artillery, but these were only theoretical figures, and it was not until the advent of the hand-cranked Gatling machine gun, which was really close to the modern machine gun, that the role of the cavalry was sharply reduced, until it was withdrawn from the main combat unit sequence.

But in Lin Haijiang's memory, all the movies or TV series that involve the Second Opium War of the British and French Coalition Army, the British and French troops in it are all crossed with two white chest straps on their chests? Armed with a breech-loading pistol? Lin Haijiang knew that the actual use of the white chest strap on the chest of the British and French troops was a bullet pouch, and there were a total of 52 firing metal bullets on it during the battle? Why do you use a front-loading pistol without a cartridge with a metal bullet pouch?

Moreover, Lin Haijiang didn't think that the Anglo-French army that only relied on the front-loading pistols could withstand the 20,000 iron cavalry of Seng Lingqin? The only explanation is that after the Crimean War, the Anglo-French troops were all reequipped with rear-loading metal cartridge firing pin rifles, and only with the high rate of fire of the rifle can it be possible to stop the counterattack of the last brave and warlike Mongol cavalry unit of the Qing Dynasty.

Lin Haijiang was a little helpless, he was misled by those shoddy film and television works and distorted historical knowledge in China.

You must know that the so-called well-known modern Chinese history has been 'meticulously' revised, and what people know is also some extremely one-sided things that they know about it, and it is normal to be misled by one-sided things and form inherent erroneous concepts.

In the middle of the 17th century, in the early years of the Qing Dynasty in China, the Chinese inventor Dai Zi invented a kind of bead milling that resembles the sepa, the gunpowder and projectiles of the bead are stored on the back of the gun, a total of 28 rounds, opened and closed with two wheels, when the first machine is triggered, the gunpowder and lead projectile automatically fall into the barrel, and the second machine rotates randomly, rubs the flint, ignites the gunpowder and launches the lead projectile. The principle of this kind of machine gun is actually very similar to that of modern mechanical machine guns, a full century before the mechanical machine gun later invented by the American Gatlin. However, due to the extreme conservatism of the Qing Dynasty's political axe and the lack of trust in the Han people, this major invention was not promoted and adopted, so it had to be hidden at home

Lin Haijiang was very cautious in choosing individual weapons for his soon-to-be-expanded Marine Corps, although the Henry Rear Mounted Cartridge Rifle was very advanced, its cost was high, and its service life was only about 700 rounds, and now this rifle had been approved for production in Britain, and he could not obtain and train equipment in batches.

But no matter how difficult it was, Lin Haijiang had to equip his troops with the most advanced weapons, because in his memory, on July 3, 1866, in the Sadoa area west of the Elbe River, an unprecedented major battle in modern European history, the Prussian army and the Austrian army fought for the leadership of Germany with 500,000 troops, under the command of Moltke, the chief of the general staff, the Prussian army defeated the Austrian army that had always dominated Europe with clever tactics and fierce firepower.

In this thrilling war, the Austrians suffered 45,000 casualties and prisoners, while the Prussian army lost only about 10,000. Prussia's victory over Austria created the conditions for the final reunification of Germany, although there are many factors that determine the victory or defeat of this war, but this factor cannot be underestimated, the Prussian army is equipped with a large number of advanced weapons represented by the rear loading pistol, while the Austrian army still uses front-loading flintlock pistols, although the advanced weapons can not represent combat effectiveness, but at least can reflect a part of the combat effectiveness, reduce the number of troops and losses invested by their own side.

However, there is one point that Lin Haijiang is also very headache, that is, the expensive price of the rear-loading firing needle rifle, the life of the barrel of several hundred rounds, and the ammunition, even a big country like Britain and France in the Crimean War is still unable to equip it in large quantities, and the barrel life may only be improved after the Prussians get a large amount of manganese ore and smelt a high manganese alloy.

Cooperation with "Germany", which has not yet completed complete reunification? Lin Haijiang had a headache, although Prussia invented the earliest Dresser firing pin rear loading gun, but at this moment the overall strength of Prussia is still weak, unless he can provide them with more advanced gun drawings, as an exchange chip, he provides Prussia with the industrial raw materials it needs, manganese, tungsten, calcium, copper, potassium and other raw materials that Prussia lacks, but modern industry is indispensable.

Moreover, he can also bring a large number of ship orders to Prussia, and this kind of capital circulation is believed to be the result that Prussia is most willing to see.

"Young master, Madame called you to eat!" A pleasant sound of orioles brought Lin Haijiang back to reality, looking out the window at the sun that was still at noon, Lin Haijiang was stunned?

After testing the gun, I dreamed like an idiot for most of the morning? Lin Haijiang looked at Yang Tianhua, Wang Dongxu and others with strange expressions at the door, coughed awkwardly and said, "It's okay, you all go to eat!" ”

The crowd that had been smirking at the commander for half a morning was immediately relieved and disappeared like a puff of smoke.

Lin Haijiang glanced at Zijuan, and suddenly he found that Zijuan's eyes were actually red? The clothes on the body also have traces of wrinkles? Looking at Zijuan's deliberately evasive gaze, Lin Haijiang snorted coldly and said, "Zijuan, you have something to hide from me!" ”

"Huh?" Zijuan, who was caught off guard, was slightly stunned, and then knelt down with a puff and said, "Young master, no!" ”

Lin Haijiang slowly sat back in the chair, picked up a book very casually and said, "I'm not in a hurry, I'll wait for you here, tell me directly when you want to say it." ”

Zijuan suddenly cried like rain with pear blossoms, Lin Haijiang frowned slightly, thinking that this woman was really made of water, and tears came down at every turn.

Lily, who had been outside the door, rushed in, knelt on the ground and helped Zijuan and said, "Sister, what are you afraid of?" Now that the young master is back, let him call the shots for you! ”

Zijuan pulled the lily and said, "Don't make trouble for the young master, don't say it!" ”

"Smack!" Lin Haijiang suddenly slapped the book in his hand on the table and said, "Who are you?" You know? ”

The two frightened little girls shook their heads blankly, and Lin Haijiang said loudly with anger: "You are young master's people, bullying you is equivalent to slapping me?" You can show me, is my face red? ”

Zijuan, who had no idea, looked at Lin Haijiang pitifully, and Lily, who had always been bold, said angrily: "Young master, you don't know, after we came back with Steward Zhao, my cousin took a fancy to our two sisters and asked Mrs. for it, but we refused to die, and the matter was over." ”

Later, the cousin inquired about Zijuan's family working in Shancaizhuang, so he used his identity as the chief of Delong Pavilion to embarrass Sister Zijuan's family, either fined silver or hit the board, and also released a word to ask Sister Zijuan to get back from him, otherwise it is not over, we thought that the young master would be over when you come back, but this morning the cousin drank wine and pestered Sister Zijuan, and dragged it into the bamboo forest with his hands and feet, Steward Zhao saw it and blocked it, and as a result, Steward Zhao was exempted from work and was packing up his things!

Lily's words are equivalent to pouring fire oil on Lin Haijiang, who is full of fire! Lin Haijiang, who was furious, slowly stood up and said to Lily: "Cousin is that?" Where are the people now? ”

Lily thought for a moment and said, "It's called Lin Jieyu, and the person is now estimated to be on the side of Pepsi Hall." ”

Lin Haijiang said loudly to the two guards outside the door: "Gather the troops and send someone to the dock to bring me that guy Charlie." ”

As soon as he turned around, Lin Haijiang said to Lily: "Go and tell Steward Zhao that you don't need to pack up your things, he is my person, even my father can't fire him, you all go to Pepsitang!" ”
