The flintlock pistol is not the best, but it is undoubtedly the most suitable firearm for the current situation of the Great Han.

Although the manufacturing cost is slightly higher than that of arquebuses, the difficulty of manufacturing is not much higher, and more importantly, flintlock pistols are more convenient to use than arquebuses.

If the fixed ammunition is really come up and is directly in place in one step, then there will be another problem in front of Liu Ponu.

The barrel must be made of high-strength steel, and at the same time, the problem of rust needs to be considered, and it must be a seamless steel tube.

There is no problem in using the engine to make a set of lathe system, but the efficiency and technical requirements of production will be improved a lot, and it is difficult to find so many corresponding talents now, in other words, the current Dahan technology is not enough to support the needs of large-scale troops.

On the contrary, flintlock pistols are different, flintlock pistols do not have such high requirements for the barrel.

If you have the conditions to get a steel barrel, you can also make a living if you don't have the conditions to get a cast iron, and you can directly use casting and post-polishing the gun chamber to solve this problem.

Even if the technology is in place, even the later polishing can be omitted, because the flintlock pistol does not have such high requirements for the chamber.

Who made this thing rely on area kill, not precision shots!

The mass production of firearms is not as simple as imagined, and now it seems to be a success, but it will need to go through a lot of tests to ensure its reliability.

So Liu Ponu asked them to make ten more of the same guns for testing, and this time the test was not just to see if they could fire it.

To test the limit data of the lighter, this includes tests in various complex environments.

The overall test process is very similar to that of later generations, although it is not as fine as that of later generations, but after the test is completed, at least we must know how far the effective range of this gun is, what is the maximum range, how many steps can ensure the accuracy of shooting, how many times the barrel wears out after shooting to affect the accuracy of shooting, and how many shots to clean the chamber is the most reasonable and so on.

Don't underestimate these inconspicuous data, with these, the troops will operate in accordance with the requirements when they are used, maintain the maintenance that should be maintained, and replace the replacement, and only in this way can the combat effectiveness be guaranteed to the greatest extent.

……

It has been two months since Liu Ponu proposed to form a new army, and Han Yannian has also followed Liu Ponu for two months, and has been the commander of the light pole for two whole months.

Li Ling has nothing to do every day, and his mood is so low that he can only use alcohol to kill his sorrows every day.

I didn't let myself do it, let myself be a county lieutenant of Lantian County, and if I became a county lieutenant, I would be a county lieutenant, but after a few days of being a lieutenant, I let myself be a lieutenant of Shu Kingdom.

It can be said that he fell from heaven to hell in one step, and then returned from hell to heaven, and Li Ling can be regarded as a day trip to hell.

thought that he would be able to recruit and train as a lieutenant of Shu State, but the result made Li Ling full of depression.

What is the captain of the country?

Because he did not agree with Chen Zhong's opinion, he decided to recruit and train, but he was sued, and then he was removed from his post and transferred back to Chang'an.

For Li Ling, who is bent on going to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions, the experience of the past year is unacceptable to him, which is a complete waste of life.

And found Liu Ponu several times to express his attitude, but never got a response, which also made Li Ling's mood fall to the bottom, so that Li Ling had to start complaining about Liu Ponu in his heart.

And today, Liu Ponu suddenly called Li Ling and Han Yannian over, although Li Ling's posture was respectful enough, but in fact, he didn't take Liu Ponu too seriously.

Liu Ponu's attitude towards himself over the past year made him feel a little chilled.

Li Ling really wanted to escape Liu Ponu's control, but now Liu Ponu is the crown prince, and he will be the emperor in the future, unless Liu Che can change the platform again, otherwise he has almost no way to escape, no matter how he escapes, he still can't escape from Liu Ponu's palm.

"You've been in a hurry for so long, aren't you?" Looking at the two people in front of him, Liu Ponu asked as if nothing had happened.

"If Your Highness wants to form a new army, all systems and training methods need to be reorganized, and it is also appropriate ......to wait," Han Yannian responded very honestly.

"Hmm......" Li Ling nodded painlessly, as if he agreed with what Han Yannian said, and also seemed to be responding to Liu Ponu He was really anxious, and even a little impatient.

Li Ling's dissatisfaction with Liu Ponu was known, and even if he didn't send someone to investigate in depth, Liu Ponu could detect it from Li Ling's attitude.

Li Ling is indeed a talent, whether it is the current performance or the performance in history, it can prove Li Ling's talent.

But Li Ling's biggest problem lies in his mentality, or because of his family background, because he grew up too smoothly, which led to his miserable ending.

It's okay for a person to want to prove himself, but to fall into a state of madness in order to prove himself is going to be a big problem.

Liu Che transferred Li Ling to Lantian as a county lieutenant, which inevitably did not mean to temper him.

Later, he was allowed to serve as the lieutenant of Shu alone, which also meant tempering his will.

But it turns out that Li Ling was quite honest when he was in Lantian, but after he arrived in Shu, he began to let himself go a little.

Liu Ponu repeatedly explained that he was not asked to go to Shu for the purpose of rearmament and warfare, and even made it clear that he was brewing the reform of the new army, so he asked him not to do those useless work, and even delayed the normal pace of construction.

But Li Ling was stunned and chose to pretend not to hear, you Li Ling has a temper, is it true that I, Liu Ponu, have no temper?

"Although my father agreed to give me a quota of 20,000 new troops, the palace has no plans to recruit 20,000 people now, so in the next period of time, the two of you will first recruit 2,000 people as the first batch of new army training, and after this batch of people meets the requirements, they will be expanded according to the situation!" Liu Ponu's mood was originally very good, but looking at Li Ling's attitude of ignoring him, his heart instantly became angry.

Originally, I wanted to talk to the two of them about some things about the New Army, but now I am even more lazy to talk about it.

"Your Highness, two thousand people only need to say hello, and when the time comes, all parts of the country will send the personnel who meet the requirements over, and there is no need for the two of us to do this at all!" Li Ling said unceremoniously.

"Well, what you said makes a lot of sense, since you don't want to participate, then you can go home and rest!" Liu Ponu squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Li Ling.

What's wrong with talent?

What's wrong with a deep background?

Is the training very good?

The big man is so big, could it be that Li Ling wouldn't be able to do it without you?

Generals are indeed very important, one soldier is a bear, and one will be a nest, but that is on the premise that there is not much difference in the strength of the enemy and us.

Li Ling is important, but Li Ling is not important at all.

What's wrong with you?

Is it because you're awesome that you can be angry with your superiors?

Why don't you see your own problems, but others see it and want to help you get rid of your stinky problems, and you don't appreciate it, but you still throw your face to others?

What others think is someone else's business, but in Liu Ponu's place, we are not used to your stinky problem!

In the future, you will go with whomever you want, anyway, one day when I Liu Ponu is here, don't think that you will have the opportunity to lead the troops to the battle.

"You can go back!" Liu Ponu also said unceremoniously towards Li Ling.

"Humph!" Li Ling snorted softly and coldly, and then turned his head and left here.

It's so good as I said before, but now come with me here?

You don't want me here? I don't want to come yet!

"What about you?" Liu Ponu set his sights on Han Yannian, although there was nothing wrong with Han Yannian's performance, and he never complained or was dissatisfied, he was a very diligent person, but with the precedent of Li Ling, Liu Ponu felt that it was better to ask.

"Your Highness will do whatever the minister asks him to do......" Han Yannian trembled in his heart, he didn't have Li Ling's background and identity, so naturally he didn't have the confidence to do the kind of thing Li Ling did.

Although what Li Ling said was really reasonable, it made sense, and he couldn't just do it against the prince so clearly.

So, it's one thing to be awesome, but no matter how awesome you are, you have to learn to be tactful.

"It's just that since the founding of the Han Dynasty, the recruitment of troops is not the responsibility of the main general, according to the past practice, the imperial court will directly issue the task requirements to the counties, and then from the counties to the counties, by the county lieutenant and others according to the requirements to assemble the troops, sent to the designated place to assemble, the main general generally rarely wait for the troops to be in order before leaving, most of the time they go their own way, agree on a place to wait for the front line together, of course, His Royal Highness's new army may not be the same, the minister is dull, and please ......make it clear to His Highness"

Han Yannian's attitude was very sincere, first talked about the recruitment system of the Han Dynasty, and then said that he was too stupid to understand, and looked at what people said, the meaning was exactly the same as Li Ling's meaning, but the feeling was completely different.

Of course, Liu Ponu also knew what Han Yannian's words meant, but he didn't care at all, this was the art of language.

The same words, different statements, can reflect different attitudes.

"The new army is different from the previous recruitment model, the new army for the age of the requirement is between twenty and thirty, in addition to the requirement that every soldier must have a son, in the past, it was a slack conscription, and everyone who joined the army for the first time had to go through two years of military service, but the new army is different, the new army's service period is five years, that is to say, after coming, they can't go home for five years, but the army will find someone to help them write letters to their families to contact."

"In addition, the new army will also pay military salaries, fifty dollars per year for the first year, and ten dollars per year after that, if there is a war merit, the military salary will be doubled according to the actual number of days on the expedition, and then tell them that after the completion of the five-year service period of the new army soldiers, they will decide to stay according to the actual situation, and the treatment of staying will be announced separately at that time, and if there is a war in those who choose to go home, they will be called up according to the situation within five years, and those who exceed five years will not be conscripted!"

"Nonsense!" There was a sudden angry roar outside the door, Liu Che had been staying at the door for a while, and even Li Ling was honestly standing behind Liu Che.

"If you do this, I'm afraid it won't be many years before there will be no one suitable for conscription......
