Chapter 812: Queen Zhangxi

Dai Zi!

Li Xiao muttered, searching for the name in his mind. It seems that there is a vague impression, as if he was exiled by Emperor Kangxi during the Kangxi Dynasty.

It was such an unlucky guy who created China's first alternative "machine gun". This is easy to explain, others can't make MG34, he definitely can't do it. The head of a genius can never be described as common sense.

It's like Kalashnikov, no one thought that a hairy young man could design a gun that kills the most people.

"Let's go, go out and have a look." Li Xiao was very interested, and ordered to take the Xu family brothers out of the hut. Dai Zi followed behind with MG34 on his shoulder, and after walking out of the door, he waved into the distance, and two apprentices carrying ammunition boxes ran in.

After walking a short distance, Li Xiao gave a thumbs up and looked at it, pointing to a tree about three hundred meters away. "That's your goal, and I wonder if you can break that tree."

The tree was bigger than the millstone, and at a distance of more than two hundred meters, it was not easy to shoot it.

Unexpectedly, Dai Zi nodded without hesitation, and without speaking, he lay down and set up a tripod, and a boy who looked like an apprentice next to him also lay down and pulled out the bullet chain from the ammunition box.

Dai Zi took a deep breath, aimed at the tree that Li Xiao was pointing at, and pulled the trigger.

A sound of tearing linen rang out, and Li Xiao listened to it with his eyes closed. This kid said that the rate of fire of 300 rounds per minute is definitely not blown, at least Li Xiao, who has studied newspaper affairs, can't hear the number.

Raising the telescope in his hand, the tree in the distance was scattered. The green smoke was scattered with wood chips, and it was determined that the impact point of the gun was very small.

Dai Zi opened one eye and closed the other, the expression on his face was a little hideous, and the flesh on his cheeks kept shaking with the shot.

A chain of 600 rounds of ammunition quickly ran out, and the apprentice reached for another magazine and quickly put on his gloves and began to change the barrel. At this time, Dai Zi also put on gloves and began to press the bomb.

After continuous firing, the temperature of the magazine is alarming, and it is estimated that you will be burned without gloves.

Soon the sound of tearing linen sounded again, and I don't know how many bullets were fired, and the big tree that Li Xiao pointed out collapsed with a bang.

Li Xiao opened the magazine and found that there were not a few bullets left in it. With more than 500 bullets, it is not easy to shoot at this distance, mainly at a distance of more than 300 meters, which will make the bullets spread over a large area. In fact, the fact that the tree can be broken with these bullets under continuous fire is a testament to the high stability of this gun.

"Hmmm! The gun is good. Li Xiao nodded with satisfaction.

"What's the range?" Li Xiao suddenly remembered that he seemed to have ignored an important parameter.

"Theoretically, you can shoot 800 meters away, but you have to be within 500 meters to shoot accurately." Talking to Li Xiao, Dai Zi was obviously still a little nervous.

"Five hundred meters!" Li Xiao nodded again, the shooting distance of 500 meters is very good. Five hundred meters away is a grenadier, eight hundred meters away is a mortar thing.

On the tactical battlefield, each stage has a corresponding weapon. As a general-purpose machine gun, Li Xiao will certainly be satisfied with this performance.

"I saw your gun, and a lot of the parts are cuts. This not only wastes man-hours, but also wastes materials, which in turn increases the price of the whole gun.

Fighting a war is very costly, and we have to think about the cost. Don't we have a press? If you can make these parts into stamped parts, not only will you save money, but you will also be able to adapt to harsher environments. ”

"Uh......! Got it! Dai Zi didn't expect that Li Xiao, who was a handsome, actually understood this kind of craftsmanship.

"Don't thank you yet!" Xu Ermo pushed Dai Zi in the back, and Li Xiao said this means that Li Xiao officially recognizes this gun. At the same time, it also means that as long as this gun is improved according to Li Xiao's requirements, it will enter the Liao Army's procurement list and become the official weapon of the Liao Army.

It is a great affirmation for anyone who designs a gun to be able to fight with a weapon designed and manufactured by himself.

"Thank you for your support! Thank you, Dashuai! Dai Zi fell to his knees on the ground, his head slamming on the ground.

"Alright, go down with your gun. If it really changes, come to me with a new gun. "Geniuses need a chance, and Li Xiao decided to give him this opportunity.

This genius is only seventeen years old, and there are still many days to come.

Dai Zi left with his partner and machine gun, and Li Xiao looked at Dai Zi's back with his hands behind his back.

"In the future, he will be in charge of the research of firearms and artillery. You have more things to do in the future, and you have recently come up with something new, come with me. Figured out a charter and began mass production. Li Xiao did not forget the purpose of looking for the Xu family brothers.

"No!" The Xu brothers bowed their heads and promised, not knowing what new things Dashuai had come up with.

**************************************

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Majesty!" Midori bowed to a woman dressed in a luxurious sari.

Queen Zhangxi, a woman who became a queen by marrying an old man. For this kind of woman, Green Bead is very disdainful. Especially when I saw this woman wearing a sari made of gold thread, this feeling became more and more intense.

When I came to Zhangxi Luzhu, I saw skinny old men and children with big heads and big bellies. Her people were starving, but she was still living in such luxury.

Speaking of living a luxurious life, Lu Zhu feels that Li Xiao is more qualified than the woman in front of him. But Luzhu more than once, I saw Li Xiao eating fried noodles with garlic cloves. Li Xiao has a million tigers and wolves under his hands, and this woman only has tens of thousands of armed peasants in his hands.

"You are the envoy from the Ming Kingdom? If I'm not mistaken, our country and yours are in the midst of Jazhan. Lots of men have died on the battlefield, and you are the murderers. Queen Zhangxi glanced at Lu Zhu, very interested in this woman who could speak fluent English.

The British have occupied India for many years, and the Indian aristocracy basically communicates with each other in English, and not being able to speak English has also become one of the symbols of the aristocracy.

Unexpectedly, this woman from an enemy country can also speak English and speak it so fluently.

"Her Majesty! Da Ming did not think of being an enemy of the Indians, and Da Ming's enemies were the British. They attacked our Ming warships in Daming, and attacked our Daming cities. They provoked the war, and all we did was revenge.

I regret the Indian casualties, especially the Zhangsi casualties. But this is all caused by the British and Wu Sangui, you know, Wu Sangui is a traitor to the Ming Dynasty, and we must arrest him back to the Ming Dynasty for trial.

Therefore, it was the British and Wu Sangui who really caused the casualties of the Indians. They regarded India as the front line against the Ming Dynasty, and used the flesh and blood of the Indians to block the Ming Dynasty's revenge on them. Her Majesty! You have been used as a gun. ”

"Huh!" Queen Zhangxi sneered.

"That's what you say, I just know that we are enemy countries. I think...... If I hand you over to Wu Sangui, he will be happy to talk to you about revenge. Queen Zhangxi's eyes were cold, and she looked at the green beads as if she was looking at the prey in a trap.

"Of course, you can hand me over to Wu Sangui, and maybe Wu Sangui will also exempt you from some of Zhangxi's taxes. But Her Majesty! You have to think clearly, if you hand me over to Wu Sangui, Zhang Xi or the whole of India, you can only live in war and hardship.

Not only will you have to suffer the wrath of the Ming Dynasty, but you will also have to be exploited by the British for many years, generation after generation. Do you want your descendants to pay a lot of taxes to the British every year, just like you?

On the way here, I saw that the Zhangxi were starving, but they had to pay heavy taxes to the British. Your people are starving to death, you won't be unaware.

It was easy to hand me over to Wu Sangui, but you personally destroyed the hopes of Zhang Xi and the Indians. ”

"Give you to Wu Sangui, Zhang Xi will be retaliated against by Daming? As far as I know, Wu Sangui had just defeated the Ming army on the east coast. ”

"He defeated the Tamils, the Tamils who were so oppressed by him that they had to resist. I believe you know better than me why the Tamil, who has always been mild-mannered, took up a gun against him. We, Daming, just provided them with equipment.

If you are willing to stand up and lead the Indians in battle against Wu Sangui and the British, then you are the master of the future India. ”

Lu Zhu saw that when she finished saying this, Queen Zhangxi's eyes lit up significantly. Sure enough, this woman's desire for power transcends everything. She just said that the people were starving, which seemed to her to be nothing of a big deal. Anyway, those mud-legged people are always starving, and it doesn't matter how many years they starve.

"The master of India, hehe! The most powerful Mughal dynasty, nor did it unify the whole of India ......"

"Because the Mughal dynasty did not have the support of our Ming dynasty. Today's Ming Dynasty has surpassed India in terms of science and technology, military, industry, and culture. With the support of our Daming, you will definitely become the master of India. Lu Zhu interrupted Queen Zhangxi very rudely.

"But only our Zhang Xi, our strength can't compete with Wu Sangui." Queen Zhangxi's tone was obviously loose.

"With Zhang Xi's power alone, it is true that he cannot compete with Wu Sangui. However, we contacted others, and Tiepu Sultan has agreed to join us. ”

"You're talking about, Karnataka, son of Sultan Haidar Ali, Tiepu Sultan?" Queen Zhangxi asked in surprise.

Tiepu Sultan excelled at equestrianism at the age of seven. As an adult, he took over the position of the elder Sultan Haidar Ali, with a greater emphasis on cavalry. In Karnataka, a well-trained cavalry was trained. It is said that his cavalry came and went like the wind, and that he reaped the heads of men with his saber as if he were harvesting crops.

In the war against the Afghans, this cavalry single-handedly defeated the main force of the Afghans, so that the Afghans did not dare to set foot in Karnataka for 20 years.

After this battle, the Tiepu Sultan received the nickname of the Iron Rider Sultan. Unexpectedly, he would also fall to Daming.

"That's right, it's Tiepu, who is known as the Iron Rider Sultan."

"If the Ironhorse Sultan joins you, then I, Zhangxi, can also join you. However...... you have to provide us with weapons, ammunition, and training. And of course, it's better to have ...... available! ”

"We will provide you with everything you need, but there is no such thing as a free lunch. This is a famous proverb of our Daming, if you want our Daming to make a move, you have to pay the price. ”

"At what cost?" Queen Zhangxi frowned.

"Coal mines, iron mines, gold and silver mines, copper mines! The coal mines of Lajianur in Zhangxi, as well as the iron mines in Akdana, must be mined by the Ming Dynasty for 50 years. Fifty years later, these deposits will still be yours. Of course, to thank Her Majesty for her kindness. We will give Her Majesty 20% of your shares, and I assure you that your earnings from the shares will be greater than your current gains.

Belch......! It should be noted that these proceeds are for Her Majesty the Queen, not for the Zhangxi or the Indian court. "Women who love power are usually greedy for money. The reason is simple, she needs money, a lot of money to buy people.

The king who summons people to work for nothing will not last long, and the king who often gives people money can keep his rights forever. Queen Zhangxi is a smart person, and she knows this.

Sure enough, Luzhu's plan moved Queen Zhangxi. According to India's current strength, the mined mineral deposits will also have to be provided to Wu Sangui free of charge. The other party only paid a small amount of food.

Watching the mountains of gold and silver slip away at home every day, but she didn't have any benefits to reap, Queen Zhangxi had long been dissatisfied.

Daming's conditions are very tempting, he doesn't have to do anything, he has 20% of the benefits. And these two percent of the income is not for Zhang Xi, but for herself.

Green beads could be seen from the upturned corners of Queen Zhangxi's mouth, and she was very satisfied with this condition.

"What's your name?" Queen Zhangxi stepped down from the throne and enthusiastically held Luzhu's hand, like an old friend who had not seen her for many years.

"You can call me Green Bead, Your Majesty!" Green Bead did not seem flattered, but accepted it all generously.

"You are truly a messenger from Heaven to us in India, come, prepare a feast, open the best and wine, and I will have lunch with my guests." Queen Zhangxi turned to her personal maid and commanded.

The maid said yes and hurried out. Almost at the same time, Midori noticed that the shadow behind the screen was also gone.

"Your Majesty, I will let you know that you have made the right choice. In the future, this land will belong to you, and to your children and grandchildren. And Da Ming will also become India's eternal friend. As long as India encounters difficulties again, Daming will lend a helping hand without reservation.

Because we're friends! ”

"Oh! Oh, my God! Luzhu, you are the person sent by God to save our Zhangxi. India will also be a friend of the Ming Dynasty forever! Queen Zhangxi hugged the green beads cordially.
