Zhang Youde took Zhang Renjie to his bedroom and took out a long box from the innermost wardrobe in the room. "Here, look at this!"

"What is this, Daddy!" Zhang Renjie was a little puzzled, what can this thing hold in a long and flat wooden box?

Zhang Youde suddenly lifted the lid of the box, revealing the true face of the object inside. Two guns, Zhang Renjie is proficient in firearms, and he also has an understanding of the development history of rifles, and he has a deep memory of famous gun pictures in history. The gun on the left is the Enfield 1853 rifle, a front-loading rifled rifle that was heavily equipped by both the Qing and Taiping armies when they were fighting. The other gun was the Spencer Seven-Shot --- Lever-Fire Repeater, which was the first batch of rifles to use metal cartridge shells, and it was also an earlier rear-loading rifled gun. Kejing Hou Zuo Zongtang praised it as the best weapon for the surrender of the twist and flattening, and it was purchased in large quantities many times, and is now widely used in the domestic army.

"Dad, you've also been in the army?" Zhang Renjie asked in surprise.

"Isn't it weird? Your father has been in the army, not a soldier in battle, just a scrivener under Liu Dashuai. If you want to hold a group training, you must have weapons, those big swords and spears have long been outdated, and you must buy a few guns for this gun. When I go back, I asked someone to go to Shanghai to find my old friend, and I should be able to get a dozen guns, no matter how much I have, my father can't help it! ”

"Liu Dashuai? Which Liu Dashuai? Zhang Renjie asked curiously, he knew that many people in the army would call the commander of their unit a marshal, but it did not mean that the official position was marshal.

"Liu Mingchuan is handsome!"

"Liu Mingchuan?!" Zhang Renjie exclaimed. Liu Mingchuan is too famous, Zhang Renjie, as an officer of the South China Sea Navy Special Forces, knows the most about overseas history, and overseas can also include Taiwan, and Liu Mingchuan is the first governor of Taiwan!

According to historical records, Liu Mingchuan served as the governor of Taiwan in 1885. During his tenure in Taiwan, he carried out a series of Western-style reforms, such as the formation and training of the new army and the construction of railways. The opening of coal mines, the establishment of telecommunications, the reform of postal services, the development of shipping, the promotion of Taiwan's trade, the development of education, and the development of Taiwan's modern industry and commerce have promoted the development of Taiwan's modern industry and commerce. Later, because he was fiercely opposed by the diehard bureaucrats and severely reprimanded by the Qing court for the sake of the tax issue of the treaty port, he was forced to submit his resignation to the Qing court.

"Dad, you have worked under Liu Dashuai! No wonder I heard people say that my cousin was introduced by you to the Huai Army, and he was a squad officer not long after entering. Zhang Renjie said with a twinkle in his eyes. I really didn't expect that my father, who is usually low-key, can no longer be a low-key person, and has such an experience, it is really unseemly!

"Why, look down on your father! Although your father is a book clerk, he has also braved the rain of bullets and bullets on the battlefield. Later, Liu Dashuai was ordered to enter Shaanxi and Gansu to assist Zuo Dashuai in quelling the ** rebellion, so I didn't follow, resigned and returned to my hometown to buy these family businesses. ”

"Why, Dad, if you have been in the army, you should be an official now!" Zhang Renjie held the Spencer repeater in his hand, turned his head and asked with wide eyes, puzzled.

Zhang Youde gave him a blank look: "It's not because of you kid!" At that time, not long after your mother gave birth to you, you still can't walk, can I leave your mother alone? Dad has been busy for half his life, and when he is almost fifty years old, he has such a precious son as you, even if he is a big official, it is not important to you! ”

"Hehe" Zhang Renjie scratched his scalp embarrassedly, his feelings were still delaying his father's future!

"Alas, I really miss Liu Dashuai, I haven't seen him for many years! I heard that Liu Dashuai stayed at home after quelling the ** rebellion, and he has not recovered so far, and few of the children of the Liu family continued to stay in the barracks later. I suddenly resigned and returned to my hometown without informing my righteous brother Liu Mingfang, which was indeed a little sorry for him. Over the years, I have not been kind enough to go to Hefei to meet him. ”

"Dad, you are very familiar with Liu Dashuai?" Zhang Renjie already had an idea in his heart, but he didn't have a clear idea for a while.

"I don't know each other very well, but I have eight friends with Liu Dashuai's cousin. Hey, I climbed high, but it was just one time on the battlefield that I pulled him to save him from being killed by bullets, and then he and I became good brothers, and I was eight years older than him at that time, so I was a brother and he was a brother. You ask what this is for, I tell you, it's useless to rely on this relationship, he has been out of the military camp for many years, and he can't help us! Zhang Youde seemed to know what Zhang Renjie wanted to say, so he blocked his mouth in advance.

"It's nothing, I just think that since it's your brother-in-law, I don't know it for so many years, so I still have to move around, go to relatives and relatives, and if you don't go, you won't kiss! Besides, the situation was very chaotic at that time, how could you do everything in every way! Zhang Renjie's eyes purred and he said a few times. Okay, without further ado, I'll take a closer look at this gun! ”

This gun is really an antique, in the future I just want to find a gun like this, it is basically impossible, it has been eliminated a long time ago, and there are few people who collect such guns, and in my hand, I really have to explore a little to make it. According to Zhang Renjie's understanding, this kind of gun is now backward, in recent years, gun technology has developed rapidly, foreign Enfield rifles, Mauser rifles, etc. are constantly updated, power and performance are far more than 20 years ago was invented this "old-fashioned gun".

Zhang Renjie knows most about modern rifles, and there are many kinds of rifles he used when he served in the army before, such as automatic rifles, assault rifles, light machine guns, etc., which he can disassemble and reassemble with his eyes closed. He knows the structure of every spare part well, he can recite the basic parameters, he has been playing with guns for ten years, and he knows more about the guy in his hands than he knows about his body. As for some of the more old-fashioned weapons, such as the weapons of World War II, of course, he knows all about the weapons used by the Eighth Road, after all, there is no soldier who does not know the history of his army.

"This gun is not good!" Zhang Renjie fiddled with the two guns for a while, and a classic line of Guzidi in the assembly number came out. This Spencer repeater is a rear-loading rifled gun, but the Enfield 1853 rifle in front of it is a front-loading rifled gun, and it is very troublesome to load, that is, a skilled soldier can shoot four bullets in a minute.

"What do you kid know, of course the front-loading gun is not as good as the rear-loading gun! Okay, I'll ask someone to go to Shanghai and buy as many guns as possible. Don't ruin your father's hard-earned family business, boy! Well, the box is yours to hand. Hey, no, you are very familiar with guns like this, who did you learn from? Zhang Youde suddenly asked.

"This, Tang Zhi taught me in the same year that I studied in the county, you know, the Tang family is one of the largest households in our Qinghe County, and his family's village guard team has a lot of guns." Zhang Renjie immediately explained that the Tang family did have a lot of guns, but in fact, he had never been to Tangjiazhuang.

"Okay, let's take this thing and go, but don't just run out and shoot guns, just fiddle around in the house by yourself, don't get into trouble!"

"Don't worry, Dad!"
