Lu Hong stared at the boxes that had been opened and wrapped with straw, and pondered carefully one by one for a long time, and pulled the little official in charge of the warehouse over, "This is the Makqin machine gun?" ”

The little official was tortured by these hundreds of bandits for a long time, and he was already a little numb, and now he was caught by the bandit leader Lu Hong, and looked at the box in shock, but he didn't understand what Lu Hong said about the magic horse "Makqin machine gun", pondered for a while, and then replied cautiously: "Lord Lu, this is a British electric gun imitated by the Jiangnan Bureau and the Jinling Manufacturing Bureau, but it is not a horse...... Gun! ”

"Race the electric gun......" Lu Hong smacked his mouth, the Makqin machine gun was indeed called this strange name when it was introduced into China, he immediately shook his hand, "Move away...... Move them all ......"

Ouyang Hao responded loudly, "Okay...... Quick, unpack the box and drag it out! ”

However, then Lu Hong remembered a serious problem, and grabbed the little official again, "This stun gun won't be a defective product, so throw it in the warehouse...... Also, what about the bullets of this stun gun? Why didn't you see it? ”

"Lord Lu, there are bullets...... Yes, but ......" The little official stopped talking, with a panicked look.

"But what!" Lu Hong immediately asked viciously, and with his teeth and claws, he was ready to dismantle the little official and transport it away.

The little official's expression was even more panicked, "Lord Lu, it's just that the bullets that are prevented are not easy to use, so ...... So...... The stun gun was put in the warehouse! ”

Well...... Lu Hong was angry at the time, we finally found this magic weapon, but was told that there was no suitable bullet for the gun alone, and his expression changed at that time, "Why is it not easy to use?" This is a bullet made by that bastard, it must be huge greed, Lao Tzu immediately went to check the evidence of corruption of his ancestors for three generations! ”

The little official fled in a panic, this uncle under the Qin mission is really not good to serve, Lu Hong snorted, waved his hand, "Move away...... Moved...... It's about those bullets, not about the broken guns! ”

There were so many things that Lu Hong robbed from the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau that day, so that the 20 carriages originally called from the machine factory could not be moved in a day, Lu Hong was not polite, and called the little official in charge of the warehouse to the side, and stretched out his hand to a silver ticket of 50 taels, "Little brother, this is today's hard work, the goods here, save them in the warehouse first!" ”

Then under the crowd of enthusiastic bandits, Lu Hong's group of people came out of the official warehouse of the Gaojing Temple, and the little official here flew to report to Liu Qixiang, the general office of the Manufacturing Bureau, and heard that this minister had such a big appetite, Liu Qixiang frowned for a long time, there has always been a bad habit of reselling military funds in the army, and he is naturally very clear...... It seems that this Lord Lu's appetite is really not small!

"Lord Liu, the one surnamed Lu, listen to him, he will come to move the ordnance another day, you see how to deal with him!" The little official's face was bitter.

"Stupid, you just let him move, he represents the Qincha, and the Qincha represents the emperor, remember to register the account carefully, and if there are some losses, they will be recorded in his hands...... The more you move, the more natural empty consumption! Liu Qixiang immediately taught the little official in a kind tone, and the one who could take charge of the warehouse for him was originally the children of his Zhang family who had such an opportunity!

Among the ordnance that Lu Hong moved back, the main ones were the Habekaisi machine guns, the 120mm imitation Armstrong rapid-fire guns that had just been put into storage by the Jiangnan Artillery Bureau, and the whole box of Mauser rifles...... Of course, this thing is not the famous Mauser 98 at all, nor is it a domestic-made pseudo-Mauser 1888 commission rifle, but a serious German imported Mauser 1871 modification.

On the list of ordnance of the manufacturing army, these rifles have only one name - Mauser rifles, and there is no model at all, but after Lu Hong opened the magazine, he immediately knew that these brand-new rifles are definitely the quality and surname of German-made rifles, but they are far better than the old sleeves that have just been produced in the Hanyang Arsenal today, the same double-row magazine 5 rounds of ammunition and smokeless ammunition bullets, but just looking at the quality of this imported firearm, it is obvious that his choice is extremely correct.

And this time, the biggest receipt is undoubtedly the imitation Makqin heavy machine gun that has now been disassembled and assembled by several engineers and apprentices...... In the year of the First Sino-Japanese War, the British had just been in the colonial campaign in Africa, so that the power of the Maxim machine gun was completely revealed, and a British infantry company, with 4 Maxim machine guns, broke the indigenous siege of nearly 20,000 people in one fell swoop, killing more than 5,000 of them...... The British really don't have a surname!

However, he was about to cheer for the arrival of the sharp weapon, and soon realized another big trouble, after the assembly of an 11mm Makqin machine gun was completed, it was installed on two all-iron, 70 cm diameter large wheels, next to Ouyang Hao and Du Wenlan, who had long been eager to try, ran over happily, and when they were about to drag the big iron lump dozens of meters away, they were immediately stunned.

The two of them are also considered to be strong, but the heavy machine gun clamped on the iron wheel is almost like a snail crawling when pushed, and the two of them used all the strength to eat milk, and only pushed a short section, and lifting this heavy guy, seven or eight soldiers came up, it was also extremely difficult...... As a last resort, two horses were brought in, and this heavy guy was slowly taken away!

Seeing this situation, Lu Hong couldn't help but grin, although this thing is a bull x extreme product, but a heavy machine gun fire that does not move in place is not bad if it is arranged in a dark bunker, but in other cases, a field gun with a far longer range than a heavy machine gun can easily bring a machine gun crew to the pot!

Mobile surname...... Mobile surname...... Lu Hong walked back and forth frantically, and suddenly, a series of patterns suddenly appeared in the super industrial line that had been rarely reacting, and after he closed his eyes and thought about it carefully, he immediately had an idea...... However, compared to reducing the weight of the Maxim machine gun, another more important problem was in front of him.

This old antique, to be honest, Lu Hong has never fiddled with it, but in his previous life, he had seen this type of machine gun rusty in the Museum of the Revolution, but his military career made him know one thing, this thing has never been something that one person can play with! Moreover, so far, I have not figured out how this batch of Maxim machine guns could be stuffed into the warehouse of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau waiting to rust!

The test firing at the shooting range that day made Ouyang Hao, Chen Huan, and Du Wenlan almost quarrel with the captain of the pig-headed squad, and they asked to configure this weapon to their own team one by one, completely ignoring Lu Hong's black line and looking at this heavy machine gun.

However, Ouyang Hao first observed Boss Lu's expression, and asked with some confusion: "My lord, this Maxim machine gun is really a sharp weapon of the army, have you found any problems?" ”

Lu Hong looked at these people, just now he had only spit out dozens of bullets, but the black smoke coming out of the muzzle of the machine gun had completely blurred his vision, and he couldn't even see the target 50 meters away when he stood behind the machine gun...... In wartime, it really became a blind fight!

He immediately dismantled the bullets in the ammunition box, and he was dumbfounded that what came out of the copper cap turned out to be old-fashioned black powder...... No wonder even if this machine gun was successfully imitated, it could not be promoted in the army, so it was put in the warehouse waiting for rust...... Lu Hong immediately understood the reason! In contrast, the multi-barreled Haggaeus cannon, because of its larger caliber and relatively low rate of fire, is more suitable for supporting firepower, but this thing is called a cannon, and it is obviously inorganic at all.

Lu Hong did not hesitate to reprimand a few pig-headed squad leaders fiercely, "You guys, you have to use your brains in this battle, as soon as this heavy machine gun is fired, the enemy can still be seen in the entire position...... You want to equip this thing, do you think this thing is good? How many of you understand the principle of this heavy machine gun? It's a delicate thing! ”

This question naturally stopped a few stunned young people at once, indeed, as long as this thing released the bolt, it immediately emitted a rhythmic "da-......" sound like a machine, and the bullets were quickly fed into the machine gun along with the canvas bullet belt...... But how is all this done, how can a few of them, who have studied Gezhi physics for a few days, understand?

Finally, Du Wenlan, a thorn in the head, said with some unconvincing: "My lord, I really don't understand how this Maxim machine gun was made, but I understand a little, the back and forth movement of the barrel and the bolt should be an important reason why this machine gun can shoot continuously!" ”

Although the two sentences of this product failed to answer Lu Hong's question, they can be regarded as talking about the key points, which shows that this guy's observation ability and judgment ability are really good, which makes Lu Hong suddenly quite impressed with Du Wenlan, but this bit of insight of this guy obviously happens to be a stepping stone for himself to establish a supreme and wise image......

"Du Wenlan, what you said is a little interesting...... However, compared to the truth, it is 108,000 miles away! The corners of Lu Hong's mouth raised, and he suppressed this subordinate without hesitation, and he pointed to the canvas Maxim machine gun bullet belt at the mouth of the bullet, "As soon as it is loaded, after the bolt is released, the ammunition in the cartridge case is ignited, and the bullet passes through the barrel under the huge impact force after the ammunition burns, and the barrel and bolt move backwards under the recoil force of gunpowder......"

Speaking of this, Lu Hong pointed to the position behind the barrel of the Makqin machine gun and in front of the ammunition port, "The barrel and bolt are recoil here, and the bolt is unlocked...... When unlocked, the bolt will continue to recoil, and with this force, the sliding front of the bolt will pull the empty cartridge case from the chamber and remove a new bullet from the cartridge belt......"

Lu Hong explained this, the expressions of several pig-headed squad leaders next to him were already as shocked as a pilgrimage, and their eyes widened, staring at Lu Hong's gesture on this cold machine gun......

"At this time, the bolt will also recoil, driving the cam in the receiver, and the movement of the cam makes the bolt magically turn into a downward posture, so that the bullet just removed from the bullet belt is aimed at the bolt, and the empty cartridge case at the front end of the bolt enters the shell throwing position, and the new bullet is firmly grasped by the claw after the shell is thrown and sent into the chamber ......"

This on-site teaching class lasted for an afternoon, although Lu Hong could not completely disassemble the Maxim machine gun, but to explain that this is almost the working principle of the Maxim machine gun in the mode of a small internal combustion engine, the whole of China, it is estimated that the engineers who practice imitation of this heavy machine gun may not have his eloquence!

And in private, the fanatical worship of Lu Hong by these officers of the Military Discipline Battalion has obviously been greatly improved again, and for Ouyang Hao and others, this Lord Lu is already a complete legend!

After the simple training that day, Lu Hong immediately sent an extremely important task, and asked a few of them to go out immediately, first to visit the engineers of the machine factory, to find out what kind of fortifications were involved in the imitation of the Makqin machine gun in the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, and now he urgently needs to recruit these engineers...... The first generation of the Maxim machine gun is undoubtedly a legend, but the real legend should obviously have its own creation!

Soon, a series of lists were sent to Lu Hong, and the technical elites of Cheng Daqi, Sun Cairen, and Zheng Xuanhong were called by Lu Hong. (To be continued.) )
