After the three of them sat down, Zuo Guigui asked with a smile: "Chairman, I heard that Dashang can produce a high-grade cavalry gun that can shoot both single shots and bursts, I don't know if it's true or not?" ”

The king nodded a little, and he also knew that this kind of thing could not be hidden. Then he called Chu Yuan to his side and said, "Chu Yuan, go and give the equipment brought by the brothers to the two adults with long eyes." ”

It was the first time that Qi Yuan and Zuo Guigui met Wang Yi's orderly, Chu Yuan. Seeing that this guy is one meter and eight big, with a thin waist and a fan-faced figure, and his facial features are also handsome, Zhao Zilong, who has changed into a Western military uniform, Zuo Guigui couldn't help but praise it secretly in his heart.

Wang Yi is now traveling in the province, and the entourage is one hundred and twenty people, which is also a forced arrangement of the two girls. In addition to the regular Bo-1 carbine, there are six Bo-1 sniper rifles and six Bo-1 general-purpose machine guns.

"Forgive me, two adults, I also had to start making guns in order to clean up the Russians." Wang began to find reasons for making firearms privately.

Qi Yuan and Zuo Guigui just smiled and nodded, probably no one believed it.

Gossiping, Chu Yuan walked in, followed by several of Wang Yi's personal guards, holding two strange firearms in their hands - the Bao 1 carbine and the Bao 1 sniper rifle.

"Chu Yuan, explain the performance of the two guns to the two adults."

After some talking, Zuo Guigui picked up the Bao 1 carbine with a look of liking, and said with a smile: "This gun is good, but it consumes a lot of bullets." ”

"Lord Zuo, I really let you say, our bullets are all copper-shelled. This time I started a war with the Russians, and in less than a month, I entered a small three million silver dollars, and after an extra ten days and a half of a month, my big business would go bankrupt. ”

Zuo Guigui ignored him, picked up the Bao 1 sniper rifle again, and said: "This gun is chic, it hits far, and it hits accurately." ”

"Do you know how many silver dollars this gun costs?"

"How much?" Qi Yuan picked up the teacup and was about to drink water, and casually answered.

"Three hundred silver dollars! Nothing more, no less! If you include bullets, accessories, and the cost of training a sharpshooter, it costs more than 2,000 silver coins a year. ”

Gimoto almost lost his temper after hearing this, and squirted out a mouthful of water that he drank into his mouth.

Zuo Guigui reluctantly put the two guns on the table at this time, and Qi Yuan gave Wang Yi a look for a long time, but Wang Yi pretended not to see it. Later, Qi Yuan really had no choice, so he had to preach: "Xiaoyi, since General Zuo likes these two guns so much, why don't you give them to adults?" ”

Wang didn't think about it and said, "This can't be done!" ”

This kid refused so thoroughly that Qi Yuan and Zuo Guigui were stunned. Because he was afraid that they would misunderstand, Wang Yi hurriedly explained: "These two guns are owner's, and Lord Zuo has no way to do it if he wants to." In order to prevent the team members from being unscrupulous, I secretly sold firearms. So all the guns were printed with numbers, and once the guns got into their hands, they were registered. If the gun is lost, the person who lost the gun will be locked up first. Then there is a special person to track down the whereabouts of the lost firearm. As long as it is found that there is a violation of military discipline, the insurance team will not be polite. And we must recover the lost gun, and the relevant personnel will not end well. ”

Wang Yi smiled at this time: "Actually, don't talk about losing the gun, even if the parts in the gun are damaged, the bad parts should be replaced with good parts." To put it simply, it means that you have to see people in life, and you have to see dead people in death. The person who manages the logistics will also record all the situation and send it to the logistics headquarters every six months for a summary. There are people there to summarize and classify all the problems, see if it is the problem of the guns themselves, or the problems of the use of personnel, and then have experts to analyze and solve them. ”

"I didn't expect it to be so strict." Zuo Guigui praised. In fact, the Qing court's firearms management is also very strict, but it is a little unprofessional compared with the big merchants.

"This gun is all the guns of my subordinates, and it affects the whole body, and there are too many departments involved in it, and it is very troublesome to change. I hope Lord Zuo will forgive me. ”

"A gentleman doesn't win people's love, Zuo understands."

Wang Yi said again: "But don't worry, my lord, I will send someone to send two new guns for your lordship to play with." There are only two requirements under it, and I hope that the adults will agree. ”

If Wang Yi didn't talk about this bunch of nonsense, Zuo Guigui might not be able to love the two guns so deeply, and now he cherished it even more for no reason.

"Please!"

"First of all, these two guns must not be lost, even the ammunition they are equipped with! This can condense the countless hard work and sweat of my big businessman! If it is lost, it is better to say that it falls in the country, but if it is taken away by the enemy country, it will be very disadvantageous to our country! ”

"The chairman can rest assured that Zuo is also a person who loves guns, and he will never be like this. Today, the chairman handed over the two guns to Zuo, and Zuo will inevitably intersect with his life! ”

The king nodded his head and said, "I believe in you!" ”

"I wonder what the second point is?"

"The second point...... Just don't copy it! Although these two guns look simple, the craftsmanship requirements of each part are very high. If it's not good, it's a gun that kills people. Besides, these guns are all patented, and if others rashly copy them, I will definitely not agree to them. ”

Qi Yuan and Zuo Guigui glanced at each other, and said in their hearts that this play was performed in vain, and everyone knew everything.

"Since it comes to guns, the juniors have one more thing to mention to the two adults. When the arsenal was built, the younger generations had no choice. Now the war with the Russians has come to an end temporarily, but with the nature of the Russians, they will definitely not give up after suffering such a big loss! Therefore, the trend of long-term resistance is inevitable. Therefore, I plan to relocate this arsenal in Mukden to the Northeast Republic. ”

Qi Yuan and Zuo Guigui were stunned for a moment, and Wang Yi continued: "However, Wang has already promised Jilin General Ming'an to provide some equipment to his Jilin Manufacturing Bureau. In fact, it is better for adults to build a Fengtian Manufacturing Bureau, which will also save them from being controlled by others. ”

In fact, this is the purpose of Wang Yi's visit to the Shengjing General's Mansion today, first, to explain the affairs of the arsenal clearly, and secondly, to build Fengtian and open the Fengtian Manufacturing Bureau. Qi Yuan couldn't do this, because it wasn't long before he was going to be transferred to the rank of Chengdu general, but Zuo Guigui could.

"My lord, the current Russian threat in the northeast has been temporarily alleviated, but our neighbor to the east is getting stronger and stronger, if we don't take precautions as soon as possible, there will be endless troubles!"

The two nodded.

"Although my Wang Yi doesn't have much ability, I have a heart to protect my family and defend the country, so if my lord is willing, my Dashang is willing to provide loans and technology to help the Fengtian Manufacturing Bureau be established as soon as possible."

"Seriously!?" Kimoto asked.

"Really, it's better than grinding a needle with an iron pestle!"

The three of them looked at each other and smiled. Later, because Wang Yi wanted to rush back to Dashang, after eating, he took people away.

Sitting in the flower hall and leaving the two of them, Qi Yuan asked, "Guanting, what do you think of Wang Yi?" ”

"It's not a thing in the pool!" Zuo Guigui thought for a while and said: "The means are extraordinary, and the actions are extraordinary. Patriotic...... But ......"

Zuo Guigui didn't say half a sentence left, that is, Wang Yi loved the country, but he was not necessarily loyal to the king.

Qi Yuan nodded, obviously agreeing with Zuo Guigui's opinion.

"Do you think Wang Yizhen will move the military factory?" Zuo Guigui asked in a low voice at this time.

Qi Yuan shook his head with a smile and said very firmly: "Absolutely not!" It's still possible to build a new one in the northeast! ”

"I think so, too!" Zuo Guigui laughed. "He has a great cause in the Fengtian family, how can he give up the force in his hands? By that time, he would not be able to cut the fish on the chopping board and let others slaughter him. ”

"Having said that, he can be regarded as having given us enough face in General Shengjing's Mansion! Besides, he also sent such a big gift to the Fengtian Manufacturing Bureau, if he provoked him again, he might cause a lot of trouble! ”

Zuo Guigui also understands that Wang Yi sent a gun today, and then talked about the internal system of Dashang, which is actually a disguised show of force. And the establishment of the Fengtian Manufacturing Bureau, Wang Yi provided loans and equipment, which was also regarded as the face of General Shengjing.

Now it is an extraordinary period for Dashang, and eighty percent of the troops are in the territory of the Northeast Republic. Dongning, Daqing, plus the total strength in Mukden, if you don't count the new recruits who have not yet completed their training, there are less than 10,000 people. The troops in various places are scattered, and the mobile troops that can be used in Wang Yi's hands are only 2,000 cavalry, plus 1,000 infantry, and now even the logistics troops cannot be withdrawn, let alone the artillery.

Not long after returning to Dashang, the Russians suddenly sent a message to the old scorpion, saying that negotiations with him were suspended. Later, Wang Yi inquired carefully and learned that the Russian Tsar Alexander II was suddenly assassinated! They shook the nation!

On the opposite side, Wang Yi did not like Alexander II, after all, he brought too much suffering to our country. But from a historical point of view, Alexander II is also a generation of enlightened monarchs, and no matter how you look at it, he is ten thousand times stronger than the rulers of the Qing Dynasty.

The capitalist reforms he carried out greatly promoted the rapid development of Russian society, greatly enhanced Russia's comprehensive national strength, and put forward plans and opinions in line with the trend of social development in many aspects such as social, military, judicial, administrative, and transportation. And his investment in education has provided good mental support for the transformation of Tsarist Russia from an agricultural country to an industrial country.

During the reign of Alexander II, the Museum of Russian Art, the famous Tretichyakov Gallery, was officially opened to the public (1856), the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg was inaugurated and opened (1860), the Moscow Zoo was opened to the public (1864), the Moscow Conservatory was inaugurated (1866), the Russian Telegraph Agency was founded (1866), the Moscow Museum of History was opened (1875), the first power station in Russia was completed and put into operation (1879), St. Petersburg began the era of electrification. In addition, during this period, a large number of social groups in the fields of art, medicine and education appeared, the first social charities appeared, and a large number of writers and scientists appeared.

In contrast, in addition to building gardens, the old ladies in Beijing are building gardens...... Nima, how fucking old are you to build so many gardens?

However, reform is often accompanied by many negative effects, and it is inevitable that vested interests will strongly oppose it. And with the deepening of the reform, the difficulty will increase more and more!

With the increase in the liberalization of political and social life in Russia, coupled with the emergence of other social institutions, some underground revolutionary organizations actively carried out terrorist activities, trying to change Russian society by means of assassinating tsars and dignitaries. During this period, it was the people of the People's Will who were in the underground state who actively advocated the assassination of the Tsar. Alexander II was the victim of several assassination attacks, but was well defended and remained unharmed.

On March 1, 1881, Alexander II was about to sign a decree announcing the reorganization of the State Council and the initiation of the political reform process of the Russian constitutional monarchy, but on this day he was assassinated again. The first bomb dropped by the Assassins injured Alexander II's guards and coachmen, and Alexander II insisted on getting out of the car to check on the guards' injuries, despite the dissuasion of the left and right, only to have the second bomb thrown by the Assassins explode at his feet, breaking both of Alexander II's legs and dying on the same day.

After Alexander II, the original successor to the throne should have been his eldest son Nicholari, but because of an accident, the crown prince died early, so there was later Alexander III on the throne. However, in terms of ability, Alexander III is far from being comparable to his father, but relying on his father's shadow, Tsarist Russia still maintained rapid development during this period, but for Wang Yi, this is obviously not good news.

In May, the old scorpion was invited by the British Minister Wittoma and the American Minister Angeli to hold talks in Yingkou to discuss the status of the two countries in the Northeast Republic.

Because of the defeat of the Russians, the attitude of these two countries towards the Northeast Republic remained respectful for a certain extent, and the conditions proposed by the old scorpion were simple.

The opium trade was banned, the two sides were on an equal footing, tariff autonomy and trade was free. Of course, this is Wang Yi's attitude!

After some consultations, the three sides signed a memorandum of understanding, and Britain and the United States announced the establishment of diplomatic relations with the Northeast Republic, but this was immediately strongly opposed by the Russian ambassador to China, Yevgeny Karlovich Butzer! And on this issue, the French ambassador to China, Bao Hai, and the Japanese ambassador to China, Takehiro Enomoto, are silent.

Negotiations between Russia and the Northeast Republic have been going on, and the two sides have serious differences. It was only because of the death of the Tsar, the turmoil in Russia, and the ascension of the new emperor to the throne that the Russians did not threaten war.

However, on this issue, the old scorpion's attitude was very strange, and his appearance was very atrophied. As long as Butzer's attitude is tough, he will take a step back and then show a posture of entrustment. But when the two sides seem to reach some kind of consensus, the old scorpion will suddenly become tough, and then overthrow Yiqiē. But at this time, as long as Bu Ce releases cruel words, the old scorpion will return to the original point again and become weak again.

This feels like the master of bed work that Wang Yi met when he visited Fenglou, and at the beginning, the girl would always show a gentle posture, speak softly, and her body was also soft. Then in the middle of the battle, she will suddenly go wild, just a little tiger who does not admit defeat, and launch just the right counterattack. But when the climax is repeated and the song is over, the girl will be gentle like water again, and use her charm and body to inadvertently express a kind of willingness to be conquered by the majestic wind. Of course, the result is welcome to come back......

Bu Ce was tossed by the old scorpion and Zhao Liewen behind him, and later found that after talking for a long time, it seemed that nothing had changed.
