When Lin Fei heard this, he immediately said excitedly: "Great, hurry up and take me to have a look." After Lin Fei finished speaking, he followed Chen Jingui to the factory area.

Lin Fei came to the rifle processing workshop, only to see a rifle lying quietly in the middle of the crowd, everyone was amazed around it, Lin Fei walked into the crowd, picked up the rifle, the butt, grip and handguard are made of trees on the island, and the barrel and magazine are made of steel.

Since Lin Fei did not calculate the ballistic characteristics, the crosshair and gauge have not yet been installed. In order to facilitate the use of the Spaniard's bullets, Lin Fei designed the caliber of the rifle to be the same as the Mauser M1893 7 mm, and the length of the breech, the angle of the slope, and the rifling winding were also designed according to the specifications of the Spaniard's bullets.

The magazine of the rifle can be loaded with 30 rounds of ammunition, and there is a fast and slow machine on the gun body to adjust the rate of fire, and the rate of fire is divided into three types, point fire, three point fire and long point fire, because the accuracy of three point shots cannot be guaranteed, so Lin Fei decided to try to let everyone use point fire in future battles.

Lin Fei said to everyone: "Let's go, let's try the gun." As he spoke, he led everyone to the shooting range, opened the safe, pulled the bolt, and put it into a magazine, which used bullets produced by himself, adjusted the fast and slow machine to the point firing state, aimed at the target about ten meters away, pulled the trigger, and the bullet fell on the target with a whistling.

Lin Fei pulled the trigger one after another, and quickly finished a magazine, there was no problem with the body of the gun, and everyone let out a cheer, Lin Fei secretly thought in his heart, in my time, a type of rifle needs to go through a lot of tests before it enters service, but now there are no conditions and resources, so it can only be put into service first.

Lin Fei decided to put this type of rifle into service, so he thought about the production capacity, and he turned around and asked, "How is the production speed of this gun now?" ”

An old craftsman replied, "You can produce fifteen sticks a day." ”

Lin Fei frowned and asked, "Why is it so slow?" ”

The old craftsman replied helplessly: "Captain, we have done our best!" In the future, as everyone is familiar with the process of making guns, it should be faster. ”

Lin Fei thought to himself that the current conditions were simple, and it was okay to produce slower, but I should speed up the calculation and design the ruler and crosshair.

At this time, Li clearly said: "Captain Lin, should we give this rifle a name?" ”

Lin Fei nodded and said, "That's right, it should be a name, about the name." Lin Fei said and took out a piece of paper full of words from his pocket and said, "Names are taken according to this standard." ”

Li Mingming took the piece of paper and glanced at it, only to see a line of large characters written on the top of the paper -- the national military standard GJB-1894-001, the army weapon naming standard. Although Li understood that although he didn't understand Chinese pinyin, he also understood some English letters under the influence of the sailors of the Zhiyuan ship, so he also saw "GJB", and he asked with a surprised face: "Captain Lin, isn't it just a name?" Why is there so much exquisiteness? ”

Lin Fei said with a smile: "Although we only have one type of rifle now, but in the future, we will definitely have more and more weapons, and if there is no unified naming standard for these weapons, it will inevitably cause great confusion, so I have formulated a naming standard for all army weapons, according to this standard, army weapons start with the letter 'L', followed by the name and number of the weapon, so this type of rifle should be called LBQ-1 rifle." ”

Li understood that Lin Fei returned to his residence, invited Yu Xier and other people who knew mathematics to come over, and helped him calculate the ballistic characteristics, and it took a day and a night to finally reluctantly solve the ballistic characteristics, although the results were not very accurate, but they were barely enough, and made some real ones with live ammunition, and finally determined the relationship between the gauge and the front sight, so that this type of automatic rifle can be used.

Lin Fei was relieved to see that the development of the rifle and bullets was going well, but before he could relax for long, something big happened again!

Early in the morning, Su Yunzhao came to Lin Fei in a hurry and said, "Captain, something is wrong!" ”

Lin Fei was taken aback and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Su Yunzhao said: "We don't have enough saltpeter. ”

Lin Fei was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Didn't Chen Fu and Yu Xier buy back a lot of saltpeter?" How can it not be enough? ”

Su Yunzhao sighed and said: "These days, we are making nitrocellulose, nitroglycerin, and mercury thunderate, and saltpeter is consumed very fast, and what they bought back is no longer enough!" ”

Lin Fei thought to himself that saltpeter is the raw material for making nitric acid, and nitric acid is a necessity for making fire explosives. In my time, nitric acid was made from synthetic ammonia as raw materials, but now I don't have the conditions to synthesize ammonia!

If you don't have saltpeter, you have to buy it, and as the production of bullets increases, the demand for nitric acid and saltpeter will definitely increase, and it will definitely not work to rely on outsourcing alone, if only there was saltpeter on this island!

Lin Fei thought of this and said to Su Yunzhao: "Old Su, go back first, I'll figure out a way to deal with saltpeter." ”

Su Yunzhao frowned and said: "Captain Lin can be faster, the current saltpeter can only be used for five days, if there is no ore, we can only stop production." ”

After Su Yunzhao finished speaking, he left, Lin Fei was secretly anxious in his heart, there were only five days, where to find saltpeter? This matter had to go to Ling Xue, and only she and her craftsmen knew if there was saltpeter on the island.

Lin Fei came to the construction factory, walked to the outside of Ling Xue's room, knocked lightly, the door opened, Ling Xue stood at the door with a cold face, Lin Fei thought to himself that something was wrong, she usually saw me with a smile, why was it cold today?

The matter of saltpeter was very urgent, so Lin Fei didn't ask in detail, and asked directly: "Xue'er, ...... on the island?"

"Wait!" Ling Xue directly interrupted Lin Fei's words and said, "There are a lot of people here, don't call me 'Xue'er'!" ”

Lin Fei was taken aback, thinking that she was also very happy that I used to call 'Xue'er' in front of many people, what happened today? When the matter of saltpeter is solved, this matter must be asked clearly, so Lin Fei asked: "Miss Ling, do you know where there is saltpeter on the island?" ”

Ling Xue nodded and said, "There is one on the barren mountain." ”

Lin Fei was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "It turns out that we have saltpeter here!" Great, can you take me to Bumao Mountain? Time is tight, and I'd like to go now if I can. ”

Ling Xue hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, you wait for me for a while, I'll go change my clothes." After Ling Xue finished speaking, she closed the door, and walked out in a man's clothes after a while, with a short knife at her waist, showing her heroic spirit.

Lin Fei smiled: "I didn't expect Miss Ling to look so good in men's clothes." Lin Fei originally wanted to make her happy, but who knew that Ling Xue actually glared at Lin Fei fiercely, didn't say a word, turned to the back stable, took out two low ponies, threw the reins of one of them to Lin Fei, and walked away on his own.

Lin Fei followed in confusion, and waited until he got out of Yanhuang City before Lin Fei asked, "Xue'er, are you in a bad mood today?" Who messed with you? ”

Ling Xue pursed her mouth, snorted coldly, and didn't speak, Lin Fei knew that she didn't want to talk more, so she hurriedly changed the topic: "No hairy mountain? It's a strange name, why is it called that? ”

Ling Xue said: "Because the mountains are full of saltpeter, and there is no grass, it is called Bumao Mountain." ”

Lin Fei heard Ling Xue's tone with a thorn in it, and asked with a blank expression, "Xue'er, have I offended you?" You're so weird to me today. ”

Ling Xue turned her head and threw down a sentence coldly: "What's so strange?" After saying that, his legs knocked on the horse's belly, urging the horse to run out, Lin Fei had to beat the horse to keep up, people can't talk when the horse is running fast, because the horse's back is very bumpy, and the tongue will be bitten off if he is not careful, so Lin Fei didn't ask again.

After running for about ten minutes, turning a forest, Ling Xue pulled the horse and asked the horse to stop, Lin Fei came to her side, Ling Xue pointed to the mountain with her hand and said, "That's the hairy mountain." ”

Lin Fei looked in the direction of Ling Xue's finger, only to see a bare mountain in front of him, Lin Fei felt a burst of excitement in his heart, and said, "Let's go up and have a look." ”

Ling Xue glared at Lin Fei and said, "You seem to be very happy?" ”

Lin Fei said excitedly: "Of course, with saltpeter, there will be fire explosives!" ”

Ling Xue sneered and said, "Okay, you can go up by yourself, I'll go back first, we didn't go around in circles when we came, you will definitely find your way back." After Ling Xue finished speaking, she left, Lin Fei looked at Ling Xue's back and shouted, "Xue'er, be careful." ”

Ling Xue turned around the woods without looking back, and disappeared in front of Lin Fei's eyes, Lin Fei sighed, secretly thinking that the little girl's mind was really difficult to understand. Lin Fei got off the horse and led the horse to the mountain, he wanted to see the storage depth of saltpeter and the trend of the mountain, and then determine the mining plan.

Lin Fei had just walked less than fifty meters up the mountain, when he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, Lin Fei looked back, and saw the red horse that Ling Xue was riding running over, and there was no one on the horseback, Lin Fei wondered in his heart, thinking why only one horse came back? Where did Ling Xue go?

Lin Fei hurriedly went down the mountain and came to Ling Xue's horse, only to see that Ling Xue's short knife was still hanging on the saddle, Lin Fei was even more strange, thinking that Ling Xue had brought this knife to defend herself, why did she throw the knife down and the person was gone?

Lin Feizai carefully inspected the harness and the body of the horse, there was nothing wrong with the saddle, bridle and belly belt, and when he picked up the reins to take a closer look, he suddenly found a trace of dark red on the reins, Lin Fei put the dark red traces under his nose and smelled it, and his heart trembled violently, it turned out to be bloodstains!

What happened to Ling Xue? Lin Fei's heart hung suddenly!
