Chapter 158: Old Expert Li Xu'er
Looking at the back of the little princess of the White Tiger Country, I touched the little tiger on my chest, and then looked at the two tigers on the lynx next to me.
Riding out of the city, I soon came to the pond, which is a small basin, on the plain, it feels more like a crater, there is no river to inject water, only God appreciates the rain, but it converges into a lake with a small area, Yirou opened the portal, I thought about it, left the horse that sat down, and patted its buttocks: "Go back by yourself, I'm afraid you won't be comfortable when you reach the yang realm." ”
The horse neighed, really understood, turned around and ran away.
Three people and a lynx, entered the portal, this is the first time I have returned to the yang realm from the demon world, just stepped back, in front of me is a suburban road, several cars passed by, leaving a blue-black exhaust, I took a deep breath, or a familiar taste, enough!
I looked at the license plate of the car, Gan B, Jiangxi Province, but I don't know what city.
"Where is this?" I asked Shao Yirou.
"I don't know, I haven't walked through this portal in Whitehorse City." Shao Yirou said.
I look left and right, the countryside on the left and the city on the right, and it's definitely right to go to the city.
There is a lynx, can not take a taxi, it is more than two o'clock in the afternoon, the sun is very hot, I did not go for a while, I am thirsty, just right, there is a commissary on the side of the road in front, no money, but my mobile phone is still there, you can brush WeChat, this is still the mobile phone that Huang Weier stole for me before, the former owner is also big-hearted, the mobile phone has been lost for so long, I don't know to call to ask, in case I am kind-hearted, and then return it to him?
After buying three bottles of water, Meng Meng screamed for ice cream, bought three more ice creams, and the three of them sat under the big green umbrella of Snow Beer in front of the supermarket to rest.
Shao Yirou looked at Mengmeng for a while, and suddenly asked, "Do you have a boyfriend?" ”
Meng Meng was stunned: "No, Mom, why do you ask that?" ”
"Look at the way you eat ice cream, it looks like ......" Shao Yirou frowned.
Meng Meng opened her small mouth, took the cylindrical ice cream in her mouth, and sucked it: "What's wrong with this?" ”
Shao Yirou looked at me suspiciously.
"What do you think I'm doing? I didn't take your daughter with me! I smiled wryly, being a mother is always so sensitive.
After eating the ice cream, the three of them took the lynx, continued to walk to the city, not long after, there was a car from the back whistle signal, I looked back, it was an empty taxi, I pointed to the lynx, meaning that I could not sit down, but the taxi still stopped, the driver pressed the passenger window, looked at the lynx, and asked: "What is this?" ”
"Cats imported from Australia." I'm talking nonsense.
"It's almost fit, come up!" The driver said that he might be in a hurry to make money.
I adjusted the front seat back as far as possible, and let Shao Yirou hold Mengmeng in the co-pilot, and I and the lynx were squeezed in the back row, just enough to fit in.
"Where?" The driver asked.
"Airport." I said that I have to go back to the capital and return to Qin Shuyao (Shu Yao's current position is the director of the Office of the Prefectural Government in the Dragon Group).
In the process of chatting with the driver, I learned that this place was called Ganzhou, in the south of Jiangxi Province, next to Guangdong Province, but unfortunately there was no time, otherwise I used to learn Cantonese for a month, and when I went to the demon world next time, I could pretend to be more like.
Arrived at the airport, WeChat to pay the fare, I already have experience, directly to the airline counter, let her out three dragon group special tickets, but this time, no one to the flight attendant in advance to say hello, she did not dare to come out, I had to call the head of 203 to ask for instructions, three minutes later, through the Ganzhou local dragon group bureau, the two sides established contact, successfully opened three tickets for me, although the lynx has the dragon group preparation, but because it is an animal, can only do consignment.
On the plane at seven o'clock in the evening, there was still a period of time, after I completed the check-in procedures for the lynx, stuffed it in the box, and took Shao Yirou and Mengmeng to buy clothes - the clothes on my body are still the clothes of the demon world, ancient costumes, and they look weird.
After walking around, the mother and daughter changed into modern clothes, although Shao Yirou is a mother, she does not have the slightest charm that a young woman should have, but is full of youthful atmosphere, standing with Mengmeng, like a pair of twins, because they bought the same clothes, for several moments, I even misidentified their identities.
After buying clothes, eating, and eating, Shao Yirou said to me: "Otherwise, we will go back to Shengjing directly, and we are not familiar with the Dragon Group, and we will be found to be demons, and the impact will not be good." ”
"Whatever you want." I said, anyway, the Dragon Group ticket is a general ticket, and you can get on any flight.
So, they took the plane to Shengjing at six o'clock, left first, I waited until 6:40, passed the security check, got on their own flight, this time did not encounter the hijackers, two and a half hours later, successfully arrived at the Beijing airport, came out, waited for luggage, so heavy, there were too many people at the capital airport, I got the lynx out of the waiting hall, only to dare to let it out, not surprisingly, to pick us up, it was Comrade Wu and the red flag car.
Lao Wu knew that I went to the demon world, very interested, let me tell me an interesting story about the demon world, in fact, there is nothing to say, I feel that this time I went to the demon world, damn, Lao Tzu is very sad and urging, there is wood - first let the mantis's scythe cut several times, and was shot by the pursuers in Dragon City with two arrows, and broke the bones, and finally arrived in the territory of the White Tiger Country, led the troops to the battlefield, and was poked by the spear of the Qinglong Army A lot of holes, this is not over, I won the battle to visit Yaozi, was found by the princess, and rewarded me with a sword - the whole thing is an injured journey.
After listening to this, Lao Wu laughed: "The demon world, there are dangers, as an ordinary person, it would be good for you to come back alive." ”
"Tsk, how can I be an ordinary person?" I frowned, "I'm the strength of green gas now." ”
"Oh? Is it? Lao Wu was quite surprised, "How did you upgrade so quickly?" ”
"Kill a demon and gain experience." I smirked and said, "It was the carp demon in the Valley of the Dead that made me rush from the middle level of orange qi to the first level of green qi.
"Very good," Lao Wu nodded, "201 may reward you." ”
"Pull it, I went to the demon world without asking for instructions, and I also participated in the war, 201 will not punish me well." I asked tentatively, when I told interesting stories about the demon world before, I deliberately skipped the matter of me borrowing the hand of the demon spirit to completely annihilate the Blue Dragon Army, but avoided the important and trivialized, and only said: I fought with Xu'er to help the White Tiger Country, after all, this violates the principles of the dragon group, I don't know what 201 will think.
Lao Wu is an old fox, and he probably heard the hidden part of my words, so he deliberately turned around and said to me seriously: "Chen Yang, you remember, you and Li Xu'er were ordered by Qin Shuyao to go to the demon world to perform tasks on behalf of the underworld, not on behalf of the dragon group and the yang world, understand?" ”
I thought about it and nodded heavily: "Thank you Uncle Wu for reminding me, I understand!" ”
Lao Wu smiled with satisfaction and continued to drive forward.
When I got to the dragon group and got out of the car, Qin Shuyao took Xu'er, Wei'er, and the 203 chief, and the four of them were waiting at the door, I followed them upstairs, came to a conference room, and had a small meeting, and I made a detailed report to Qin Shuyao and 203, because Lao Wu had an explanation before, so I added "according to His Highness's requirements" or "according to the laws and regulations" in front of all the behavioral norms in the demon world to avoid unnecessary trouble.
When reporting, I kept paying attention to 203's expression, she didn't seem to have any abnormal attitude, sometimes bowed her head to record, sometimes looked at me, and nodded slightly, to show that she was listening carefully, but Qin Shuyao kept smiling and hugging her chest, and her appreciation was overflowing.
When I talked about using the strategy of "slow and galloping" to avoid the arrow formation of the Qinglong Army, and using the shield of the sunset and evening light to break the enemy army, Qin Shuyao was excited to hear it, put her two small hands on the side of her face, slapped it a few times, and threw me a wink, under Li Xu'er's reminder, she coughed lightly and returned to normal, because in addition to 203, there were two dragon group directors I didn't know.
"After that, in the spirit of humanitarianism, I discussed it with Princess Wu Mei, and then brought Shao Yirou's mother and daughter back to the Yang Realm, came to Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, and then returned to Beijing, that's it." Half an hour after the meeting, I finished my debriefing.
"Those two demons, why didn't they come back with you?" 203 asked me.
"They went back to Shengjing directly, Shao Yirou is still in the study stage, she is in her third year of high school, and her studies are important." I replied.
203 nodded, scribbled a few sentences on the paper, and then turned to the other two chiefs, "Is there anything else you want to know?" ”
A male director thought about it, held up a carbon pen, and gestured to me.
"Excuse me, Director." I smiled and said, I must "pass the hall", after all, the two worlds have just finished the meeting, and the resolution not to interfere in the war in the demon world has been formed, I crossed the line, which belongs to the crime against the wind, Qin Shuyao must also know this, so she can only let me attend this "hall".
The director took a sip of tea unhurriedly and asked, "Comrade Chen Yang, just now you mentioned that the Qinglong Army has artillery units, I want to know what is the caliber and power of their artillery?" ”
I put my mind at ease, there was nothing to hide, so I described the shape of the cannon of the Qinglong Army I saw to the director, who should be an expert in weapons, and after listening, he drew a picture on the paper: "Isn't that so?" ”
"You're amazing, almost identical." I say.
"Do you know what kind of cannon this is?" The Commissioner asked with a smile, and I shook my head, I didn't know much about heavy weapons.
"This is called the Franco machine gun, it is the front-loading smoothbore gun of the peak period of the mid-to-late 19th century in the Yang Realm, the so-called peak period, in fact, is another way of saying the end of the road, because from that time on, the more advanced breech-loading rifled guns have begun to dominate," the director really understands very well, and talks eloquently, looking at this for a while, looking at that for a while, showing everyone, "This shows that the weapon level of the demon world is at least a hundred years behind the yang world, and there is no need to worry at all!" ”
"Hehe, Director Liu," Xu Er sneered, "With just one artillery, you can say so many ways, if you say so, wouldn't a group army in your Yang Realm be able to sweep through the countries of the Demon Realm?" ”
"I think it's about the same." The Commissioner said confidently.
Xu Er glanced at Qin Shuyao, Shu Yao nodded, Xu Er got up, walked to Director Liu's side, picked up the cannon drawings and looked at them: "Director Liu, with your knowledge, please deduce the speed and range of this artillery, as well as the explosion power." ”
"That's called muzzle velocity," Director Liu pouted and corrected, "The gun, it's called the muzzle speed, the muzzle velocity of this kind of Franc cannon, between 300 meters and 500 meters per second, the weight of the cannonball, it should be about 30 kilograms, and the firing range is about 3.2 kilometers, as for the power, it depends more on the power of the explosives in the cannonball, the role of the cannon is to shoot out the cannonball as a terminal weapon, and it is the cannonball itself that causes damage, not the cannon itself, understand?" ”
Director Liu's words actually have a bit of gunpowder, he relied on his proficient knowledge of weapons, and ridiculed Xu Er's questions unprofessionally.
"That's the case, I really don't know much about these details," Xu Er smiled, put down the drawings, and looked at his hands, "I only know that during the battle yesterday, the Qinglong Army loaded the shells and wanted to bombard the cavalry of the White Tiger Country, and I happened to be near the muzzle, so I picked off the shells that were shot out with my hands, and it was really powerful, and I was sent flying out for ten meters!" ”
Director Liu's expression was puzzled, and he immediately sneered: "Comrade Li Xu'er, I know that you are very powerful, but I absolutely don't believe that you can block the cannonball with your flesh and blood!" ”
"It's true," I said earnestly, "I've seen it with my own eyes. ”
At that time, after Xu'er blocked the shell, she was blasted out more than 30 meters (she herself said about 10 meters, it was loading B), after landing, Xu'er was holding the black cannonball, still observing the smoking fuse, I hurriedly shouted at her: "Throw it, it's going to explode!" ”
Xu Er hugged the cannonball, turned around twice, threw the cannonball into the camp of the Qinglong Army, and blew up a dozen demon soldiers into the sky.
"Y-What do you want to say?" Director Liu asked Xu Er vigilantly.
"Hehe, I don't mean to say anything, but I just ask you Terrans not to be too arrogant, what you think is very powerful, in our opinion, may not be worth mentioning. By the way, Director Liu, let me ask you, is it difficult to build this kind of cannon, or is it difficult to build a single-shot rifle? ”
"Of course it's a cannon," Director Liu said calmly, pushed the gold-rimmed eyes, and continued to show off his weapon knowledge, "In the middle of the nineteenth century, there were already rear-loading single-shot rifles using modern copper bullets, and twenty years later, the Mauser rifle came out, with a magazine that could provide continuous firepower, consistent with the principle of modern rifles, while artillery was mainly subject to the casting process because of its large size, and was far less rapid than the rifles of the same period. ”
"You're right, completely correct," Xu Er said with a smile, and she quickly seemed to be digging a pit for Director Liu, "So, Director Liu, let me ask you, the demon world already has such advanced cannons, why do infantry and cavalry still use cold weapons instead of rifles?" ”
Director Liu blinked his eyes in confusion and shook his head.
Su'er continued to ask him, "What is the effective range of the most powerful actual combat bow and arrow in the history of mankind?" ”
Director Liu thought for a while: "It should be an English longbow, with an effective range of about 200 meters." ”
Xu Er looked at me: "Comrade Chen Yang, have you seen the bow and arrow of the demon clan, what is their range?" ”
"450 meters." I said, when I fled from Dragon City, I really calculated.
"That's right, but that's just the third-rate bow and arrow troops of the Qinglong Kingdom, the bow used is an ordinary maple material, the most powerful archer unit in the Qinglong Country, called the 'Yizi Battalion', has 8,000 top archers, and the bow they use is the precious red sandalwood of the demon world, and the effective range is far more than that of ordinary bows, up to 1200 meters, note, I'm talking about the effective range, if you don't consider the accuracy, pull the bowstring, drift with the wind, and its longest range is nearly 2000 meters. Director Liu, may I ask what is the range of your mainstream rifles in China? ”
Director Liu was out of words, she should have guessed what Xu'er wanted to say.
Although the weapons of the demon clan are backward, but their physical defense is top-notch, the reason why the bow and arrow range is so large, is not for long-distance attacks, but to make the arrow faster, the faster the arrow speed, the stronger the penetration, in order to cause damage, according to my estimates, with an ordinary assault rifle, a magazine bullet may not be able to shoot a strong demon soldier to death.
"The effective range of the rifle is 800 meters," 203 said with a smile, "only the range of a heavy machine gun and a small number of sniper rifles can reach two thousand meters, I said Director Liu, do you know that you hit the muzzle of the gun?" This Commander Li is an old weapon expert in the underworld, and she knows all kinds of weapons in the Three Realms well. ”
Director Liu looked at Xu Er in surprise, Xu Er sneered, and while walking to his seat, he said seemingly casually: "The kind of rear gun you drew is not called a Furlong cannon, but a variant of the Armstrong cannon. ”
Director Liu's face was red and white for a while, and this face made Xu Er ......
