Cleaning up his mood, Chen Xiao walked out of the house and strolled through the streets of Heiyan Village.

The houses on both sides of the street were requisitioned by Chen Xiao to house these slaves.

Five thousand slaves were all housed in the small village of Black Rock, and the houses in the village were simply not enough.

Many people lay thatch, sheets and clothes directly on the street and sleep on the ground.

Black Rock Village, a small village, is now full of people inside and out.

Luckily, it was a good harvest month, and the weather was dry, and there was not much rain at night, except for the cold wind.

In addition, Chen Xiao had purchased a large number of fur quilts and other materials before, which came in handy now.

With Wu Tong and these guards guarding the whole village, maintaining order and vigilance, Heiyan Village seemed very calm, like a paradise forgotten by the night.

Chen Xiao walked over to a slave who kicked the quilt away and pulled the quilt on her.

He noticed the woman's slightly trembling body and smiled softly: "Don't be cold." ”

It wasn't until Chen Xiao left that the woman opened her eyes and looked at Chen Xiao's distant back.

She was scared to death just now, thinking that Chen Xiao, the new master, would be furious and would do something shameful with her.

However, Chen Xiao left quickly, and did not force her to do those shameful things, she couldn't imagine that the new owner just pulled the quilt for her, and told her not to be cold.

Her eyes couldn't help but be covered with tears, and a warm feeling rose from the bottom of her heart and drove away the cold.

Chen Xiao came to the house where Lux was housed and knocked on the door.

Lux's vigilant voice sounded inside: "Who?"

"Chen Xiao. It's been a long night, and I've missed you. ”

Chen Xiao turned on the flirting mode and said with a hippie smile.

He was in a happy mood tonight and wanted to find someone to share his joy with.

Lux is a good candidate.

After returning from Storm City, Lux's attitude towards him has improved significantly, and Chen Xiao feels that the iron should be struck while it is hot, and the relationship with Lux should be enhanced to better capture the hearts of beauties.

Since there is no point in appearance, Chen knows that he has to rely on cheekiness and flirting with his sister.

It's a pity that the fireworks made have been used up at the Dragon King Festival.

Otherwise, Chen Xiao will find an opportunity to be romantic.

You must know that Chen Xiao's trick of flirting with girls with fireworks has conquered all the village girls in Rodri Village and become the public lover in their hearts.

Chen Xiao visited late at night, and Lux suddenly panicked.

There was a rustling sound and a whisper from inside.

After a while, Lux opened the door with her clothes on, her face flushed.

Chen Xiao looked into the room, and when he saw that Audrey and Lashana were also in the room, he was also confused.

Has anyone told me why Lux is in the same house as Audella?

Also, why did Audrey and Lashana have a shy expression?

Groove ...... Am I just saying something wrong?

Without waiting for Chen Xiao to figure it out, Lux gave Chen Xiao a slap.

Syllable!

Crisp and loud.

"Don't bother me!"

Lux slammed the door shut and hung Chen Xiao outside the house.

A reassuring voice came from inside the house: "A bastard like Chen Xiao, let him die!"

"Be discerning with your eyes, and do not be deceived by him. ”

......

......

Chen Xiao looked confused.

What the hell did I do?

When did I lie to you!

Chen Xiao seemed to have been hurt by 10,000 points, and his heart was so depressed that he vomited blood.

He shook his head and left the place with a lonely expression, going back to think quietly.

When Chen Xiao walked away, Audella's voice came faintly: "Lux, don't you like him too?"

Like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, Lux jumped up, covered Audella's mouth, and hurriedly said, "No!"

Audrey expressed her incomprehension of the human mind.

She has a straightforward personality and does not like to deceive others, nor does she like to deceive herself.

She had heard many stories about human princes and princesses since she was a child, and the happy ending always touched her.

She sometimes thinks about when she will have a passionate love affair and be with the prince who loves her forever or something.

Audrey still doesn't know if her feelings for Chen Xiao belong to love, or if she simply likes it.

But Audrey likes to stay by Chen Xiao's side, and this feeling can't fool herself.

Rashana looked at Audella's confused look and sighed secretly.

Can elves really unite with humans?

She had never heard of a human union with an elf that would have children.

Belch...... What the hell am I thinking!!

It's just so filthy, so shameful.

She didn't think about such a long-term situation.

It's impossible to talk to Chen Xiaosheng monkey or something!

To hide her shame, Rashana joins in the frolic between Audrey and Lux.

Chen Xiao, who had been injured by 10,000 points, sighed for a while after returning to the room, and felt that it was a very distressing thing to be unable to sleep after a long night.

So he took out paper and charcoal, lit an alcohol lamp, and wrote down the training methods and training items of the Women's Army.

Physical training is a must.

Fighting skills are also necessary, although there is no need to train the women's army to be a big master like Lux, but the fighting spirit cultivation project also needs to be added.

He has now collected some low-level Dou Qi cultivation methods, and if he popularizes them, maybe some talented people will be born.

In Chen Xiao's plan, the most important training item of the Women's Army is shooting training.

He wants to build the Women's Army into an invincible musket team.

As for muskets and bullets, he has no way to make them now.

But it doesn't matter, when his steel mill is completed, none of this will be a problem.

The gunpowder formula of the bullet he understood.

The construction of the musket is also well known to a military enthusiast.

As long as the materials and personnel are ready, it is not too easy to draw a musket.

On a whim, Chen Xiao drew the size of the bullet and the design composition of the bullet gunpowder by the way.

In terms of muskets, Chen Xiao gave up making primitive flintlock pistols and arquebuses.

The arquebus, in fact, is very similar to the original shotgun he made, that is, the musket, although the appearance is different, but the working principle is the same.

The use of the fire rope to ignite the gunpowder chamber is not only slow to fire, but also complicated to load, and has great flaws in battlefield operations.

The flintlock pistol was also directly eliminated by Chen Xiao because of the rate of fire.

If he wants to make muskets, he has to make the most powerful and advanced.

In the end, he opted for a semi-automatic rifle!

Fully automatic rifles, for the time being, do not need to be considered at all, the process is too complicated.

Compared to fully automatic rifles, semi-automatic rifles combine the advantages of Mauser rifles and carbines, with short barrels, long bayonets, self-reloading ammunition, and relatively simple manufacturing.

The filling of bullets with gunpowder requires the use of nitrified gunpowder and oxidant, among which the manufacture of primer, Chen Xiao decided not to use the substance of mercury thunderate, which is not only explosive but also highly toxic, and if it is not good, he will blow himself up, Chen Xiaozhen doesn't know who to cry with.

He chose to use safer chemicals such as nitrocellulose, potassium chlorate, and antimony trisulfide to make the primer.

Although the sensitivity is not as high as that of mercury thunderate and sodium azide, it is better to be safe, with the current level, Chen Xiao can only do this, if he can improve in the future, he will also improve, but at least not now.

After the primer is designed, the size of the bullet also needs to be formulated.

He needs to prepare a vernier caliper, this world has a uniform size, he only needs to use a ready-made ruler, plus two vernier calipers are ready-made vernier calipers.

After the design of the bullet was completed, Chen Xiao traced the various ingredients of the semi-automatic rifle according to his memory.

The length of the barrel, the key points of production and the material are all listed one by one.

Components such as firing pins, spring clips, stock and grip, receiver rails, reentry springs, transmitter plates, etc., also require detailed data.
