The golden eyes and black pupils looked at each other for a long time, Ouyang Yu couldn't see the fear and hatred in the eyes of the inhabitants of the North American continent from the girl's eyes, and the girl's eyes only had indifference and indifference from the gods looking at mortals.

"Aren't you afraid of me?" Ouyang Yu became extremely interested in the green-haired girl, and took the initiative to talk to her, hoping to understand the other party's inner world.

"Why should I be afraid of you?" the girl looked away, and began to fight with the pizza in front of her again, her voice was good, but her tone was as cold as her temperament.

Ouyang Yu crossed his hands to support his chin and continued: "I am the commander of the British army that occupied Petersburg, just a few days ago, I killed many freedom fighters in the New World who died for independence, aren't you afraid of such a person?"

"There will definitely be a lot of casualties in a brutal war, and the person who picks up the gun must be prepared to be killed with a gun, and after the war, you did not mistreat the prisoners, but also treated the prisoners and wounded equally, and after occupying the city, you still restricted military discipline and did not allow soldiers to enter the city at will, which shows that you are not a brutal person, so why should I be afraid of you?"

The girl's tone of voice always seemed unusually calm, neither sad nor joyful, very similar to the Taoist description of the Taoist master.

In order to get to know the girl better, Ouyang Yu continued: "Maybe this is just an illusion I made in order to buy people's hearts, in a place where you can't see, I may be abusing the captives, making them work in the mines, working sixteen hours a day, only giving very little food, and not treating the captives when they are sick, and letting the captives die." ”

After Ouyang Yu finished speaking, the girl's cold expression finally changed, she glanced at her like an idiot, and then spit out a sentence, "Boring, are you still a child? Or do you treat me as a child? Think you can scare me with such words? If you really want me to be afraid, please put away the smile in your eyes, and then take some practical action, such as pulling out your pistol and pointing it at my forehead." ”

Perhaps bored with Ouyang Yu, the green-haired girl finished the small amount of pizza in three or two bites, and then left the restaurant quickly.

"Cut, what an unlovely girl, be careful that no one will dare to marry you in the future. ”

Ouyang Yu, who was taught a lesson, was a little depressed, she decided to turn her grief and anger into appetite, and eliminate some more steaks to avenge herself, and the result of this willfulness was that Ouyang Yu ate herself, her stomach bulged slightly, and she couldn't walk, and finally called a carriage to go.

handed over the troops to the deputy commander to train Ouyang Yu, who had nothing to do, because he was really fed up with the accuracy of firearms in this era, he rushed headlong into the arsenal in Petersburg to improve firearms.

Because the front-loading smoothbore flintlock pistol has no rifling, the fit between the bullet and the barrel is not high, so the accuracy is poor to death, and the flintlock firing rate is only 60 to 70 percent, plus the scientific and technological level of this era is impossible to improve to the level of the 20th century, and the above shortcomings can only be improved in a targeted manner.

Ouyang Yu considered a variety of improvement schemes, at first wanted to change to the Dresser M1841 needle pistol that was fired backwards, but the firing pin of the needle pistol was difficult to manufacture, and the air tightness was difficult to ensure without a rubber seal, and the hot gas leaked during shooting was easy to burn the shooter.

It was easier to change the smoothbore rifle to the Mini gun, which was also a front-loading rifle and used the round-tipped cylindrical shell lead bullet invented by the Mini. Since this bullet is slightly smaller than the caliber of the rifle, it solves the embarrassing situation of the old rifle's frontloading bullet that cannot be stuffed into the barrel or clogs the barrel due to the large bullet.

Mini rounds can be easily pushed into the chamber with a strip, which greatly increases the rate of fire. The bullet is threaded around the body to match the rifling, and the middle of the thread is stuffed with animal oil. When fired, gunpowder gases hit the cork, and the cork was hit by an instantaneous impact, and then the bullet was violently propped up. Because the bullet is stretched, the bullet itself can be relied on to complete the sealing of the chamber at the moment of firing without leaking gunpowder gases and causing the kinetic energy of the bullet to be lost. This solved the problem of airtight chambers of the old front-loading guns, which greatly enhanced the rate of fire, range and safety of the guns.

The most important thing is that the production technology of Mini guns and Mini bullets is very simple, and mass production can be carried out in this era, Ouyang Yu only took a few days to trial produce the first sample gun, and achieved excellent results in the shooting range.

The Mini rifle, the whole gun weighs 4.8 kilograms, the caliber is 17.8 mm, each bullet weighs 32.4 grams, the killing distance can reach 918 meters, and the accurate hit can be guaranteed within 550 meters.

In addition to the rifle, the grenade that has become an infantry artifact will naturally not be forgotten by Ouyang Yu, although there is no high explosive charge in later generations, but after being wet and then dried in the shade, the granular black powder that burns at a rate three times that of ordinary black powder is also a good explosive, after a series of experiments, the grenade containing five hundred grams of particle explosives and prefabricated fragments began to equip Ouyang Yu's troops, and the developed grenade can effectively kill the enemy within a radius of ten meters.

To this end, Ouyang Yu specially dispatched more than 200 soldiers with large arm strength to form the world's first grenadier unit, each grenadier is equipped with a Mini gun named M1781 rifle, but also equipped with eight M1 grenades, as long as the distance is forty meters, these strong men will let their enemies know what is called grenade hell.

Thanks to the strong industrial base of Petersburg and the bayonets of Ouyang Yu's soldiers, fifty M1781 rifles are produced every day, and the output will be higher as the proficiency of the workers increases, and the number of simple M1 grenades produced is even more.

At the same time that Ouyang Yu changed weapons for his troops, General Montgomery also led his troops to repel Washington's troops at Yorktown and rescue the besieged British troops there, Admiral Nelson's fleet also expelled the French fleet from the relevant sea areas, Washington was forced to lead the troops to retreat, and General Montgomery took the opportunity to chase and fight fiercely for a while, and Washington's troops lost their armor and suffered heavy losses, if it were not for the timely reinforcements of the French Army, I am afraid that the whole army would be wiped out.

The Continental Army, which had lost a great deal of its weapons, was in dire need of replenishment, but the other arsenals were far from the current front, and the only closest arsenal was Petersburg's, so Washington set his sights on Petersburg, hoping to destroy or repel the British troops stationed there, and reoccupy and restore the armament of his own troops.
