Chapter 176: Don't go off topic like this
"Wakaka, you're finally going to be the emperor, it's great, it's great, I've been waiting for this day for a long time."
After hearing that Li Yongji planned to ascend the throne, Zhang Xinda actually closed his eyes and clenched his fists, making a tearful face.
"Please, I'm just going to be an emperor, do you need one or two of them to be so happy?" Li Yongji was helpless when he saw him like this, but he didn't expect even Zhang Xinda to be like this.
When Li Yongji agreed to ascend the throne in the near future, his father and brother were immediately very happy, his father was so deep and calm, he didn't even invite any outsiders for his birthday, only with his own family's low-key guys, they were all unconscious, and his brother was even more drunk and danced, and finally fell to the ground drunk.
However, before he got drunk, Li Yongchang confessed to Li Yongji, it turned out that they had been secretly doing the preparations for ascending the throne and becoming the emperor, and the reason why they were so anxious to do it in five days was that they were afraid that Li Yongji would delay it again, and it would not be good for people to be anxious.
Now how many people are staring at their Li family, if they don't ascend the throne and become emperor, at least he Li Yongchang will have a lot of things that are not easy to do, so even if it is simple and hasty, he has to let Li Yongji ascend the throne as much as possible, at least give the title.
That's not all, when the news began to spread, he immediately heard a large number of shouts outside Long live, presumably except for the soldiers on duty, all the people who heard the news, whether they were soldiers or not, rushed to Yang Xinju outside to shout long live.
After the father and brother got drunk, Li Yongji originally wanted to chat with Zhang Xinda and complain about the emperor's thoughts here, but he didn't expect Zhang Xinda to be so excited, which made Li Yongji suddenly have a kind of rush that the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is in a hurry.
"What do you know, this is called substitution, substitution, do you understand?" In the face of Li Yongji's complaints, Zhang Xinda pursed his lips disdainfully. "Although I can't be like you anymore, but when I think that almost all of your qiē is created by me, that sense of accomplishment, you know? Got it? ”
"How did you build it?" Li Yongji immediately shot back, "Please, you're a logistics captain, okay?" Without Zhang Butcher, can you still eat pork? Our family is gone, and you have someone else. ”
"Cut, that's half the credit for that." Zhang Xinda smiled, "Don't talk about that, let's take a look at the emperor's plan I gave you." I've been waiting for this for a long, long time. ”
"The Emperor's plan? That's hair? Li Yongji's mouth immediately opened wide.
"Of course, it's the costumes, the styling, the background placement, the honor guard arrangement, the music and the like."
"You know that?" Li Yongji said in surprise.
"I won't, but someone will, I bought a large wedding planning company, and then told him that I wanted to hold an emperor's enthronement celebration, and they quickly gave me a bunch of plans." Zhang Xinda smiled. "Come on, come on, I'll show you, in fact, I've removed some obviously unreliable plans for you, and the ones selected now are the best. I particularly appreciate the first option. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Xinda fiddled with the tablet, then turned around, and the big screen behind him lit up all of a sudden. Beautiful pictures began to appear.
Li Yongji looked at this picture, and before Zhang Xinda could explain, he was immediately surprised: "What the hell is this?" How is it a set of gold armor? This dress. How do I look like the gold suit in an online game? ”
Indeed, the clothes worn by the model are a gold version of the whole body armor, the whole body is full of gold shining armor, without revealing a single gap, and there are many cloaks, wings and the like, it does look more like a gold suit in an online game.
"Hehe, that's right, this is my first plan, the Golden Armor Outfit!" Zhang Xinda pointed to the picture and said, "Don't underestimate this set of armor, it's not actually a traditional armor, but something more advanced."
Let's talk about the lining first, the lining inside this thing is composed of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and carbon nanotubes, which is one of the most advanced body armor materials we currently have, compared with ordinary body armor, this material is lighter and stronger, and has better air permeability, so this is a new bulletproof material at the nano level.
Outside the lining of this layer of nano body armor material, there are nano ceramic plates, which can not only resist bullets, but also prevent the puncture attack of cold weapons, further strengthening the bulletproof and stabbing function.
As for the gold pattern on the armor, it is just a decorative color, not real gold wire, but after being painted and polished, it looks as bright as gold.
In short, this set of gold armor is almost made of new materials, much more valuable than clothes made of equal weight gold, once you wear it, not to mention the wind, but also can be effectively bulletproof and stab-proof, plus this large encirclement of the gold version of the bulletproof helmet, boots and cape are also nanofiber materials, such as the cloak contains bamboo fiber, warm and breathable, first-class protection. Well, only the wings on the helmet and boots are a bit redundant, but they're pretty and aren't they? Actually, if you don't like it, the wing wings are detachable and convenient, which I have considered a long time ago. ”
"If I want to go out in such a suit, then I won't be able to sing." Li Yongji pouted, "Besides, you are a battle armor, and you can't wear a battle armor at the enthronement ceremony." ”
"Why not, who stipulates that you can't wear battle armor when you ascend the throne?" Zhang Xinda smiled, "Of course, if you really can't accept it, there is a second outfit, which is low-key, you must like it." ”
"Okay, I'll see what your low-key outfit looks like." Li Yongji said, "Don't make gold shiny anymore, you will laugh to death if you wear it." ”
"Hey, what about my set of emperor armor, I spent tens of millions." Zhang Xinda said with a dumb eye, "I can't return it, and it's according to your size, I can't wear it." ”
"Okay, okay, give it to me, it's a big deal to wear it and pose for a picture in the future, and show you the photos." Li Yongji said, "Okay, let's take a set, your set is too scary." ”
"Alright then, the next one is the emperor's dragon robe, this time I decided to go in the ancient style, and of course add modern elements." Zhang Xinda changed a picture, and then pointed to the picture on the screen and said, "As you can see, this set of clothes belongs to the regular wear series, which is much more low-key and has no protective function." It's just simple to keep warm and breathable, to be comfortable and good-looking, and the color palette is generally navy blue and golden yellow.
Among them, navy blue is the main color, highlighting the meaning of stability; Golden yellow is the first auxiliary color, representing the royal atmosphere; In addition, there are some moon white decorations, mainly in the form of auspicious clouds and other patterns, adding some agility.
In addition to the color, the clothes are made of specially processed cashmere and silk. Structured and comfortable are guaranteed.
The whole set of clothes is divided into three layers, the first layer is the basic shirt, mainly a golden silk crewneck shirt, except that there are no small lapels, which is similar to an ordinary shirt, there is not much to say;
The second layer is the Tang costume of the Chinese standing collar, which continues to maintain the Chinese small standing collar while adding modern elements such as shoulder pads and waist pinching, and canceling the right side. It is a straight row of cloth buckles, simply put, a slim version of the navy blue Tang suit;
The third layer is the outer garment, which is also the main garment, which is actually a long set of hems. The trench coat with a large stand-up collar just combines some traditional elements of traditional Hanfu, such as a large stand-up collar and a wide belt. One of the large stand collars stands up straight to your ears. The wide belt is one hand wide, and the whole is navy blue, with various intricate golden yellow patterns on it. Of course. Padded shoulders and a cinched waist are a must to accentuate your slender figure.
Other pants and shoes are also navy blue, and then gilt and silver, which must be brilliant, and there are also a lot of ribbons, capes and the like.
Oh yes, I almost forgot the hat, which is the crown! You see, this crown is specially made by Italian designers and Chinese designers, and the overall style is the traditional Chinese emperor's crown, that is, the T-shaped crown, but the front curtain has been removed, and some wings have been added, and the appearance has become more atmospheric.
The material of the crown is all made of 24K gold silk and nano silk, and a 20-carat pear-shaped mutton fat jade is inlaid in the middle. ”
"Anything else?" Li Yongji asked again.
"Then there's everyday clothing, you can't use it for celebrations!" Zhang Xinda said, "You can't wear your daily clothes to the celebration, right?" If you want me to say, you either choose this set or the first set of armor, or you can figure it out yourself! Hmph, it's a big deal that I'm wearing these clothes myself! ”
"Hey, okay then, I'll choose the second set." Li Yongji sighed, "The second set of costumes, uh, the emperor's costume is more reliable, the first set of emperor armor is too exaggerated." ”
"Actually, it's not an exaggeration, the key to the first set of clothing is protection, if you really dislike the appearance of gold shiny, I'll just change the color." Zhang Xinda said, "But you are the emperor, the Chinese like gold, if you go to the battlefield or something, the key is to boost morale." Why did I make your armor shiny gold? It's just to be seen by more people on the battlefield, to increase protection, and to avoid damage such as stray bullets, assassinations, etc., it's a pity that you don't wear it. ”
"Okay, okay, I'll wear it in the future." Li Yongji waved his hand helplessly.
"That's it for the emperor's clothes, queen, wait until you have it." Zhang Xinda said, "Next is the Royal Guard."
The costume of the Royal Guard is still the style of the Swedish Royal Guard, all coats and leather boots, but the color of the clothing has changed to navy blue and white, such as the cuffs and collar are white, the belt is white, the leather boots are black, and the collar has become a Chinese stand-up collar instead of a lapel.
The other is the hat, in order to prevent collision with the Prussian military helmet, I will change it to a new military helmet for you, the military helmet of the Royal Guard is based on the M35 steel helmet, the background color is navy blue, and then the surface is added with a gold-plated and gold-plated pattern, such as the chrome and gold-plated plum blossom family crest in front of the helmet, it must be there, indicating that this belongs to the Royal Janissaries, which can maintain protection while increasing the beauty. Of course, now we can't talk about the Prussian military helmet, we should say the Chinese military helmet,"
"You're going to reduce your protection." Li Yongji complained, "The key to the steel helmet is concealment, the front of your helmet is chrome and gold, so shiny, you can find it from a distance, it is a reduction in protection." No matter how strong the steel helmet is, can it really prevent direct bullets? ”
"Well, with the power of the musket of the era in 1860, three hundred meters away, this helmet could definitely withstand the fire of the front-loading musket. Besides, you are a royal honor guard, and you usually rely on it, do you still rely on these people to really fight? Of course, if you really plan to fight with the Praetorian Guard, you can put a camouflage cover on the outside of the helmet, and you will be completely fine when you fight.
In short, it's a guard of honor, OK. The key is to look good and be handsome! If you really want to fight, the M56 steel helmet is easy to use, it is cheap and strong, but it looks a little ugly. ”
"Well, well, that's it for the costume of the honor guard." Li Yongji was no longer entangled, "That's it, right?" ”
"Of course not, like guns, that and that. What I prepared for me was a chrome version of the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle, a must-have gun for the Chinese honor guard. How's that, okay? ”
"Semi-automatic? It's too advanced. Li Yongji said, "The honor guard is for others to see, holding semi-automatic rifles, it's too early, right?" After all, if I ascend the throne and become emperor, foreigners will definitely come to see me, whereas in the past when I used to use automatic rifles, there were no foreigners present. ”
"Cut. What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that someone will steal your rifle and follow along? Zhang Xinda said.
"Pretty much." Li Yongji said, "In case someone steals it, the principle of firearms is very simple, and they may not be unable to do it." ”
"Yes. If they could steal a few guns to break down, they could do it. "But don't forget, it's 1860." At that time, it was still the era of black powder, and yellow powder was still something in development, and once the bullet was missing, yellow gunpowder was missing. Even if you make a gun like yours, it's not powerful at all.
What's more, in 1860, countries were still in the era of handicraft workshops and steam engines, and the real electrification industry had not yet begun, even if you could imitate your kind of 56 semi-automatic rifle, but the materials and time required to process a gun were too great, and it was impossible to mass-produce at all, and it was impossible to equip the troops on a large scale, and even if it was equipped, the ammunition could not be supplied...... The 56 semi-automatic is a copper-shelled fixed bullet! ”
"I know all of that." Li Yongji said, "I mean, is it necessary to stimulate foreigners so early? If you're armed with a Sharps rifle, you can continue to bluff people, and if you're equipped with semi-automatic, they'll know that we have more advanced weapons, and they'll look at us differently in the future, and their strategy for treating us will change accordingly. ”
"It's just a guard of honor, a guard of honor." Zhang Xinda said, "You just need to keep it secret and not let foreigners contact it?" ”
"You also said it, but it's just a guard of honor, it's for the sake of good looks." Li Yongji said, "In this case, there is no need to show off our 56 semi-automatic, just go directly to Sharps, in fact, if the Sharps rifle is decorated, it will look better as an honor guard, right?" ”
"No, whatever Sharps said, it was also done by the Americans, and your ordinary army equipment is just that, but your own royal guard, how can you have to have what others don't have." Zhang Xinda said, "That's it, since I've come to this point, then I'll give you the big killing weapon I prepared in advance, come, and see the new things I have prepared for you." ”
After speaking, Zhang Xinda changed a picture again, and it was a new rifle.
"Damn, isn't this the 38 style?" Li Yongji recognized it at a glance, "Isn't this the Japanese devil's Type 38 rifle?" ”
"No, this is not a Type 38 rifle!" Zhang Xinda said proudly.
"Hell, when I don't know it." Li Yongji pointed to the picture on the screen and said, "This is clearly a 38 cover!" ”
"Hehe, I knew you were going to admit your mistake." Zhang Xinda continued to say proudly, "Actually, this is a Type 99 rifle, to be exact, it is a 38-style structure on the outside, but it actually fires 7.7mm bullets, but the appearance and structure are the same, so it is understandable for you to admit your mistake, but this is really not a 38-style rifle." ”
"You show me this, do you want me to use this one?"
"It should be said that it is an improved version." After Zhang Xinda finished speaking, he changed another picture, the rifle on the picture is very similar to the previous one, but it seems to be slightly different.
"Look, this is the rifle I plan to use for you, and it's also the picture of the foreign gun I just tried to make." Zhang Xinda said, "The structure of this rifle is the same as that of the Type 99 short rifle, the only difference is that the caliber of the barrel is different, and it has been replaced with a new barrel that can fire 7.62x54mmR rifle bullets, so that the bullet can be directly used with modern bullets, and can also be used with SVD sniper rifles and other machine guns to facilitate logistics supply." ”
"You're going to use this as a gun for the honor guard?"
"That's right." Zhang Xinda smiled, "Don't you think this gun looks good?" Plating chrome, kill one qiē in minutes and seconds, give me a day, all for you, if there is more, three thousand chrome ceremonial rifles are still possible. ”
"Why did you think of using this rifle? Why can't you just use Sharps? ”
"The Sharps rifle is ugly." Zhang Xinda said, "And." This rifle is a new rifle I have prepared for you, and it is also a new generation of standard equipment that is ready to be reloaded for you on a large scale, with this thing, the Sharps rifle can be eliminated in the future. Since the Sharps rifle is about to be eliminated, why do you still use that thing in the enthronement ceremony? ”
"Why eliminate? The Sharps rifle is actually quite easy to use. Li Yongji said.
"It's easy to use Mao, the Sharps rifle is almost powerful, and the manufacturing cost is high." Zhang Xinda said, "Let me tell you, the Sharps rifle has a longer barrel and more places to use wood. There are also many parts, and many of them require cutting technology, and they can't play stamping, so if they are produced by large industries, the production cost of the Sharps rifle is much higher than that of the Type 99 rifle.
And you have to know that the Sharps rifle was originally made in accordance with the requirements of paper shell fixed bullets, and the process of this rifle is more complicated, and the accuracy is not good, at least compared with the 38 type. That's a lot worse. ”
"But ammunition is cheap." Li Yongji said, "The Sharps rifle can use black gunpowder, or even the silver gunpowder used for firecrackers, and paper shell ammunition is definitely much cheaper than copper shell ammunition." Why don't you consider these? ”
"But this gun is too complicated, and there are many small problems." Zhang Xinda said, "The Sharps rifle is as you say, with paper shells. Although it is cheap, it is easy to jam and dumb fire. Especially in winter when fighting in the north, the disadvantages are especially noticeable. You will definitely have to work with Lao Maozi in the future, and it will be inappropriate to use this kind of gun when the time comes.
As for the cost, I'll be honest with you, if the copper-shelled bullet is mass-produced, the price is very cheap, but the performance is not a little bit stronger. Besides, there is a lot of stock of this 7.62x54mmR rifle cartridge, not to mention our China, even the Russians have a lot of stockpiles, and their two countries basically don't need these old bullets, and it is a trouble to destroy them, but it is cheaper for me, and I can import these obsolete bullets in large quantities at the price of buying garbage.
Do you know how much I bought? China alone bought 500 million rounds of ammunition! The Russians bought 300 million, adding up to 800 million, if you don't want it, who will I use it? African? They're using the AK's mid-power ammunition, so they don't use it. ”
"Damn, who told you to buy so much, why buy so many bullets?"
"Isn't it cheap, do you know how much this bullet costs? Because they are all scrap products that no one wants, the price for me is super favorable, an average of three cents for a bullet, damn the egg, this is still plus the freight, if you remove the freight, a bullet is less than a dime! In other words, if I buy their bullets, they have to thank me for helping them clear their inventory!
In addition, I have purchased six fully automated bullet production lines from China, two of which are dedicated to the production of this 7.62x54mmR rifle cartridge. As for the production capacity, hehe, if you start at full speed, you can reach an average of one bullet every five seconds, and you can produce more than 17,000 rounds of ammunition a day, plus the ones you bought before, it is enough for you. ”
"But why is it thirty-eight, no, ninety-nine?" Li Yongji asked, "Since you are using a 7.62X54 mm rifle cartridge, you don't need anything else for Mao, so you have to use the rifle structure of the Japanese devils?" ”
"Because the structure of the 38, no, the 99-type rifle is simple and cheap." Zhang Xinda said, "I've thought about it for you, although my bullet production capacity is high, and it won't be a problem for you, but if it's delegated to the troops, there is also a transportation problem, you can't lead the troops to fight by yourself under any circumstances." Then with the road conditions in China in your time, the problem of logistics supply is a big problem for the time being, not to mention automatic rifles, the consumption of semi-automatic rifles can't stand it, so tethered rifles are the best choice.
In the tethered rifle, throughout the history of famous guns, whether it is the original Mosin Nagant rifle of this bullet, or Enfield, Mauser 98K rifle, etc., the cost is relatively high, the maintenance is more troublesome, but the accuracy is not much different.
On the contrary, the structure of the Type 38 rifle has few parts, simple maintenance, and the lowest production cost, and the 7.62 mm caliber barrel has been replaced, and the power is not weak at all.
Moreover, the Type 38 rifle has a dust cover, or dust cover, which is the biggest feature of this rifle, which can reduce the entry of dust and reduce the number of repairs, which is incomparable with other similar rifles. In the end, this rifle was the longest, which was good for fighting bayonets, and my bayonet was replaced with a Mitsubishi bayonet, which was even more powerful.
What do you think. After listening to what I said, now you understand why I want to give you this new Type 99 rifle, right? Oh, by the way, if you want to give it to you now, you can't call it Type 99, you can call it Type 1860 rifle, hahaha. ”
"To put it simply, you are engaged in this rifle because the production cost of this gun is low, and it can consume a lot of the 7.62*54mm bullets you bought, right?"
"That's right. That's right. Zhang Xinda said, "Otherwise, in fact, it is not bad to produce small-caliber 6.5 mm bullets."
I checked, in the history of the 38 rifle, there are actually three types of bullets, only the early first one is a shot with two holes, the power is small, and the later two, especially the third bullet. The power is not bad at all, after hitting the human body, it will roll, causing greater damage, and the US military can suffer a big loss back then. It's just that it's not very good against armored targets, but in 1860, there were no armored targets at all, and this bullet was perfectly fine.
Seriously. If it weren't for the fact that this 6.5mm bullet was small on my side, the stock was small, and the production line was small, so it would be too expensive to buy. I really want you to use this 6.5mm bullet, the advantages of this bullet are much better than the 7.62, save money, have a high amount of ammunition, small recoil, and the power is not bad, especially convenient for recruit training. Of course, in the future, if you can produce small-caliber rifles yourself, this bullet caliber can still be considered. ”
"Let's talk about it then, when I can produce small-caliber rifles myself, then don't think about it without a ten-year plan." Li Yongji said, "For me now, the key is to be cheap, large and easy to use...... By the way, how is the performance of your new large-cap rifle, have you tested it? ”
"Of course I've tested it, otherwise how dare I use it for you." Zhang Xinda said, "This 7.62 mm version of the new gun has a barrel length of 657 mm, a total length of 1150 mm, a total weight of 3.5 kg, a magazine that can add five bullets, four right-handed rifling, the muzzle velocity of the bullet is 730 meters per second, the scale range is 2200 meters, and the maximum range is 3600 meters."
It can be said that this new large-cap rifle is completely copied from the design of the Type 99 short rifle, but the caliber is different. From the 7.7 mm semi-flange bullet to the 7.62 mm flange bullet, in addition, the barrel is cheap because of the use of modern alloy steel used to produce the barrel of the 56 semi-automatic rifle, not to mention the cheapness, the strength of the barrel is higher than that of the Japanese devils in World War II, and the weight is of course lighter, in addition, because of the difference in charge, the bullet power of the 7.62 flange bullet is of course a little stronger than the 7.7 mm semi-flange bullet in World War II, plus the use of a three-edged bayonet, the power is more fierce when fighting.
Therefore, this rifle has the advantages of light weight, strong firepower, easy maintenance, high accuracy, etc., the only bad thing is that the recoil is much stronger, but all in all it is acceptable. ”
"Well, the most important question, can I produce this gun myself? The most important thing is, can I produce my own bullets? Li Yongji said, "I can't rely on you to support arms logistics, at least I can't rely on you to supply bullets, there must be a ...... I mean, I produce my own bullets, so I can take up less teleportation tonnage, and you can change that tonnage for something else, don't you say? ”
"Hehe, don't worry, I've thought it all over for you." Zhang Xinda smiled, "Why did I choose this kind of Japanese devil's rifle, I just had to consider producing it for you, so I planned to hand over my production lines to you from the beginning." Because I thought so, I chose the structure of the Type 99 rifle, in order to make it easier for the workers on your side to get started because the process is simple, the copy is easy.
Let's put it this way, after the production line on my side starts, I will shoot all the production processes, all the details, and the problems that will occur are also recorded in advance, so that when the production line is given to you in the future, it will be more convenient for your workers to learn how to operate the production line for production.
In other words, I bought the rifle production line and the bullet production line, which were originally prepared for you, and you have a power plant and enough workers, it is not difficult to start the production line.
As for the raw materials, you can make the wooden butt handle or something yourself, and I can provide the barrel, copper sheet and gunpowder first, that is to say, in the early stage, your side is a factory for processing materials, and I only provide raw materials, so I can also save a lot of worry.
Otherwise, my own lifeless production of bullets and rifles, even if they are old-fashioned, will make people suspicious, right? But just providing you with raw materials is different, it's much simpler and easier, and it's not easy to attract people's attention. ”
"Oh, I see, that is, when the time comes, I can produce this rifle and cartridge myself? Are you just supplying raw materials? ”
"Yes, that's it." Zhang Xinda said, "When your own industrial system is established, you will naturally not need me to provide raw materials."
In fact, the production line that I am going to provide you with is not only capable of producing this tethered rifle, but also the production line of the Type 80 general-purpose machine gun, the production line of the Type 63 60mm mortar, and even the production line of the Type 92 infantry gun, the Type 94 75mm mountain gun, and the Type 99 105mm mountain gun. By the way, grenades, grenades are also available, and what is prepared for you is an improved version of the Type 99 grenade, and there are so many weapons, which are enough for you to abuse Lao Maozi in the early stage.
Of course, these production lines can't be used by you yet, so I have to play with them myself, record all the operation processes, and then give them to you.
And let me tell you, I plan to put those production lines on the machine, and use the machine to replace some complex labor, so that it will be more convenient for you, don't you say? ”
"And what about the Sharps rifle?" Li Yongji asked, "And your revised version of the Napoleonic cannon, as well as the grenadier canister, how to deal with these molds and production lines?" Don't want it? ”
"It's not that you don't want to, you can use it for the militia troops, or for export." Zhang Xinda said, "After the new weapons will be given to the main force or the second-level troops, the Sharps rifle will be given to the militia troops, in addition, the American civil war is also coming soon, and you can export a large number of dollars to the United States at that time, not only can you exchange foreign exchange gold, but also divide the United States, what a good thing." ”
"That's right." Li Yongji nodded, and suddenly thought about it, "Hey, no, we just seemed to be discussing the enthronement ceremony, why are we talking about weapons and equipment?" Don't go off topic like that. (To be continued......)
