Chapter 82: This First Snow Is Really Late
This arsenal was established by Gu Tingyu after he completely captured Lucheng.
His requirements for weapons are very high, so the equipment and personnel here are the best, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the top two among the major warlords.
"Overseer, this is the weapon made from the wooden gun you sent last time."
As soon as Gu Tingyu came over, someone immediately came over with the design drawings and the guns and weapons that had been modeled.
When Adjutant Zhang saw the weapon, his eyes immediately widened, "This gun is really strange, where is the bullet loaded?" β
The gunsmith who made the weapon also frowned, puzzled, and pointed to the strange gun, saying, "Overseer, I've studied this weapon carefully, and it's strange that it doesn't have a magazine. β
The gunsmith was a young man, in his thirties, with a pair of thick glasses, who didn't look very good, but at the same time had an air that people couldn't help but believe.
"What if, here, it's not a bullet?"
Gu Tingyu's fingers slid over the gun, and between his eyebrows was a thoughtful look, he raised his eyebrows, and there was a clear look in his eyes that he couldn't put down this gun.
"Not a bullet?" The gunsmith was stunned for a moment, then laughed, as if he thought it was funny, but after laughing twice, his smile gradually retracted.
Then, he took the gun back from Gu Tingyu's hand and put it in his hand to look at it carefully.
His eyes lit up at this glance, "Yes, Overseer, yes, there must not be bullets here." β
But is a gun without bullets still a gun?
The gunsmith is very good at physics and good at weapon manufacturing, at this moment, he vaguely seems to have some ideas in his heart, but this idea is vague, there is no accurate concept, at this moment, he feels that his mind is full of paste.
"You study and study again, if you can't find anything, just put it first, what happened to the weapon corresponding to the previous design draft?"
Gu Tingyu is not good at these, and he is not ready to say more, only asking what he cares about the most.
The latest foreign weapons on the design drawings are the most suitable for mass production of powerful military supplies.
"It's going very well, the parts are being manufactured, the first batch of weapons has been made, Overseer, please accept the test guns!"
The man's eyes lit up with interest.
The arsenal is huge, and there is a large open space outside the warehouse, and there are many targets in the open space.
A small soldier came with a newly created weapon.
"This is a weapon smuggled from country D, and we made it ourselves according to its drawings, you can try it and feel it."
The gunsmith is full of confidence.
Gu Ting weighed and observed the difference between the two.
'Bangββ! When the guns rang out, the birds in the forest flew with them, and there was a sound of fluttering wings.
Gu Tingyu then fired several shots in a row, shooting at different targets, aiming at standard flags, shooting perfectly, Adjutant Zhang didn't need to look too much to think that this must be the ten rings of the ten rings.
I have to say that this gun of country D is really good, the recoil is stable, the firing range is straight, and the speed is fast, if this kind of gun is matched to every soldier in a large area, it is the smallest pediatric matter for his Gu family army to plunder the next few counties.
He tried the gun made by his own people again, and it was heavier in weight, and the rest was no different.
Wei Long's weapon-making skills, he said second, really no one dared to say first.
"Very good, just like this, mass production, by March 18th, I want to see all the Gu family troops stationed in Lucheng equipped with guns."
Wei Long rubbed his hands, excited and happy, and nodded in response to this matter.
Adjutant Zhang accompanied Gu Tingyu to check the operation of the warehouse workshop, and from this warehouse to that warehouse, he had to come out of the warehouse.
The goose feathers and snow that fell in the sky fell on the two people at once.
Adjutant Zhang's most hated thing in previous years was snow, and when it snowed, the snow fell on the ground, and if it was deep, it would be extremely difficult to walk.
He knew that the Overseers hated snow the most, so when he saw it falling, he immediately had an umbrella come to him.
"Overseer, it's snowing."
Adjutant Zhang held an umbrella and walked at the door of the warehouse to spread it, and most of the umbrellas were tilted towards Gu Tingyu.
Snowing?
Gu Tingyu raised his head and looked out, his eyes were cold and gloomy, and the white goose feather snow seemed to come down as if he was taking a picture, lining his face with a little more poetry and softness.
He raised his hand and went out to fetch the snow, and the black wind gently tugged at the movement of his hand, followed by the movement of his hand, and smiled again.
"The Overseer is really a golden mouth, so he told Miss Xiao that it would snow, and this is snowing."
Adjutant Zhang is the king, as long as it is done by the overseers, he can boast of anything.
"What is she doing?"
Gu Tingyu suddenly spoke, which made Adjutant Zhang unable to catch the conversation, and after a while, he remembered that the overseer was talking about Miss Xiao.
He rubbed his nose, a little honest, a little innocent, "The Overseer asked me this, I'm not a roundworm in Miss Xiao's stomach, how can I know something that the Overseers don't know?" β
Gu Tingyu looked at the six-petal snowflake that fell in the palm of his hand, his narrow eyes flickered, and he suddenly reached out and clenched it.
The snowflakes were small, but the strange coldness that melted in his palm made his mind clearer.
Last night, he almost asked for Xiao Meiren, but he couldn't help it, just tortured her to massage herself, pour cold water, and wipe her back.
Venting and tossing hard.
But he didn't want to face a cruel outcome for him, he didn't want to know that she was one of the ordinary people to him, he didn't want to know that they didn't fit together.
She was so well-behaved last night that she didn't resist a word obediently, which is really strange.
Gu Tingyu looked at this snow and was slightly distracted.
"Overseer, this is the first snow of the year, and this first snow is coming late." Adjutant Zhang sighed.
Gu Tingyu suddenly retracted his thoughts, "Prepare the car." β
He turned around and left, his pace was very fast as he walked, and the wind was blowing, and Adjutant Zhang was puzzled, but he still hurriedly followed him.
After getting into the car, the car immediately drove away from the arsenal and drove in the direction of the city.
Half an hour later, he returned to the Overseer's Mansion, knowing that Xiao Meiren and Chao Xuemei had gone out, Gu Tingyu ordered Adjutant Zhang to pass the word down, and the whole city was on guard to find Xiao Meiren.
And he himself sat in the car and asked the driver to drive around Lucheng to look for her.
The atmosphere in the cafΓ© is very good, with Western-style snacks, bitter coffee, and music playing on the record player.
Xiao Meiren lowered her head, stirred the coffee with the coffee stick, and did not speak.
"Xiao Xiao, you have a marriage contract with the Overseer, and you should often see the young marshal in the Overseer's Mansion, right?"
Chao Xuemei finally couldn't help it, lowered her head, and seemed to ask a little shyly.
