Appearance:

The flintlock pistol could have been made by Lu Yuan a long time ago.

How to say this thing, not to mention that in the different world of the Lieqian Dynasty, there are spirit stones and stamping lathes.

Even if it's the Ming Dynasty on Earth, this thing can be made.

There is a saying that someone studied it at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

But Da Ming is gone, and this thing has not been developed and installed.

Then there is the Qing Dynasty that is officially installed.

Of course, it doesn't matter when it was invented, the important thing is that it was made at that time.

Not to mention in the Lieqian Dynasty.

Then why didn't Lu Yuan build it before?

How can I really say it, Lu Yuan doesn't like this thing a little.

After all, how to say that Lu Yuan is also a traverser.

This is not only a traverser, Lu Yuan is also a traverser with "Ingenuity".

To be honest, from the very beginning, Lu Yuan didn't look at these arquebuses, flintlock pistols or anything.

It's really unnecessary.

Wait for the latest machine tools, stamping machines, and pull up the bolt rifle directly, isn't it?

And there won't be a lot of time in between.

A new machine tool or something is coming out soon.

By the time Lu Yuan came back from Gansu this time, it had already been built.

You say you get a flintlock pistol, an arquebus or something, and after you get it, it's in full production.

All kinds of money to spend money in it.

And then half a year later, when the real modern rifle comes out, all these things will be eliminated.

It's useless at all.

It's really useless.

Things like flintlock pistols are really troublesome to maintain, and it's actually quite difficult to fight.

Fill it with explosives, then take a slender iron rod and tinker with it.

In fact, there is really nothing more convenient than the firecracker.

Of course, the shooting is more accurate and farther.

However, immediately after that, Lu Yuan made a serious rifle, and this flintlock pistol is garbage.

Then why is Lu Yuan tidying up now?

This is not waiting for modern rifles to come out, at least half a year later.

I, a member of the military academy, is about to go to the border.

This is naturally to upgrade these people's weapons.

In fact, there are not many people who go this time.

In the past two days, I have discussed it with my grandfather, the military department, and the cabinet.

Sixteen of these important fortresses were fortified.

One fortress went to two tanks, three armored vehicles, and the number of combatants alone was almost seventy.

There is also logistics or something, almost more than 100 people.

These more than 100 people are basically equivalent to the establishment of a company.

There were sixteen forts in all, and counting all the combatants, plus the reserves, was almost more than a thousand flintlock muskets.

This little bit of gun, that can still be wasted.

With the strong industrial productivity of Luxi's side, these more than 1,000 flintlock pistols were all produced in a few days.

The main thing is that there is really no technical stuff in this flintlock pistol.

At this time, the station is lively here.

Everyone was curious and stretched out their heads to see what kind of thing this was in the hands of the prince.

Why is this so powerful?!

What is this, it can shoot so far and so accurately?!

The point is, it's powerful enough!!

It's like a modified firebolt that everyone is using now.

It's just twenty meters longer than the normal firecracker

In the case of ordinary firearms, the firing range is about seventy or eighty meters.

But range doesn't mean accuracy or power.

The maximum power of the firebolt is about thirty meters.

Fifty meters is weak.

The maximum range of seventy or eighty meters, hitting the enemy in heavy armor, is to hear a sound.

The most important thing is that if you really want to hit seventy or eighty meters away, then the accuracy will be long gone.

If you beat Zhang San, you may go to Li Si.

But the one that the prince is fighting now is different.

That's too far, and it's so accurate!

However, Lu Yuan did not show much affection for this flintlock pistol.

That's pretty much it.

Anyway, it was the transition between the generals and soldiers who went to the border in the past six months.

Then, Lu Yuan picked up another gun from the table.

Click.

A crisp pull.

The man heard the voice that couldn't be done directly.

Subsequently, Lu Yuan opened fire.

Bang bang bang.

Smack.

Bite~

Eight gunshots.

The last gunshot was accompanied by an extremely crisp, ding~~

Anyone who has fought in World War II knows what this thing is.

The main battle of the U.S. military in World War II semi-automatic rifle, M1 Garand!

Commonly known as the Big Eight Grain.

Lu Yuan said before that real guns are simpler than some toy guns.

Lu Yuan does not make bolt rifles, semi-automatic rifles, automatic rifles,

It's not the guns that are difficult.

Even the rifling inside the gun is easy to make.

Either directly hand-forged, or directly broached.

Either way, the Lieqian Dynasty can get it.

It's the bullets that are hard!

But this bullet is difficult to make, not impossible to build!

How to build?

Hand rub!

That's right, it's hand rubbing!

Brass is refined, poured into abrasive tools, and then fed into stamping machines.

The steps ahead of this are the same as in the manufacture of modern rifle cartridges.

And the follow-up is completely different.

Because the stamping machine tools of the Lieqian Dynasty were extremely simple, there was no way to produce them accurately.

The size of this bullet casing, the bullet head is too difficult to precise.

Therefore, there are simply no conditions for making bullets.

If you force it, you can only rub it by hand!

The bullet is measured.

If the error is too large, it will be reworked directly, thrown back to the furnace and directly smelted into copper water, and then poured into the abrasive tool, and then into the stamping lathe.

If the error is not large, you have to rub it by hand!

Take a file and roll the bullet case into a 7.62 specification.

Among them, there are also those who have been rubbed by hand.

There is more rubbing here, less rubbing there, the bullet casing is directly biased, crooked, and the quality is wrong.

Such a thing is also scrapped and returned to the furnace.

Continue to repeat the first step, copper water, abrasives, stamping machine.

The scrap rate of such hand rubbing is extremely high.

And then this is just bullet casings, and warheads, too.

There is also a reload of propelled explosives and primers.

There is no machine for this, so it can only be filled by hand, and the worker takes a small funnel and fills it in.

In this way, you may not be able to directly feel the difficulty.

Let's just put it this way, from the night Lu Yuan decided to go to Gansu, the next morning Lu Yuan asked Li Er to go to the factory where he rubbed bullets.

3,000 people were directly transferred.

Five days, day and night, shifts.

Guess how many bullets were made in five days?

60,000 rounds!

Looks like a lot, doesn't it?

But in fact, 60,000 rounds of ammunition on Earth, that is, the number of ammunition used in a day of training for a reinforced company.

With 60,000 rounds of ammunition, a reinforced company was really lost in one day.

In particular, it took 3,000 people to make such a little bit in five days.

In total, a worker can make four compliance bullets in a busy day.

You just say how expensive this thing is.

Especially......

The quality of these bullets is also poor.

Look at the eight shots Lu Yuan fired just now.

Eight guns jammed twice.

What the fuck is this quality?

Rotten to death.

But it can't be helped.

It's not like these people are going to the border, Lu Yuan has to give these people some hole cards or something.

This is like cultivating immortals, fantasy.

This protagonist goes out to fight with others, doesn't this have to hide some hole cards?

Don't talk about cultivating immortals, it's fantastic.

Let's just say that the countries of the modern earth, not all of them are advanced, I hide them, and what they show is backward.

Therefore, even if it is expensive, even if it is made and does not meet Lu Yuan's psychological expectations, it will have to be rectified!

And at this time.

The entire garrison of the Han Wang's army was trained here, and there was silence.

This semi-automatic rifle is not up to par in Lu Yuan's eyes, because of the problem of bullets.

After all, eight shots jammed twice.

What the hell is this?

This is only the case in modern times that the gun is about to be scrapped.

But in the eyes of others.

This...... This is an artifact!!

This......

What the hell is this?

Five or six seconds, eight shots directly?!

Guns so far?

Guns are so powerful?

This??

Yes??

Ahhh

This is not to mention the fire guns that everyone is now equipping.

Let's just say that the flintlock pistol that can be held in both hands and fired directly by pulling the trigger.

From loading ammunition, then holding a small iron rod to tinker inside, and then putting iron eggs.

Then you can lift the trigger and pull it, which will take at least a minute.

As for the firecracker.

That's not to mention.

The one had to hold the ignition and light the fuse or something, even slower.

And this ......

Eight shots in five or six seconds??

This?

What kind of artifact is this??!

When everyone was stunned, and the entire shooting range was silent.

Lu Yuan picked up another iron box and stuffed it into this Garand.

Hey~

I didn't get my fingers pinched~

Then, Lu Yuan raised his gun again and shot.

Bang bang bang.

Syllable.

Bite~

Lu Yuan can see it.

That's all this hand-rubbed bullet does.

Eight launches, no matter what, you have to get stuck twice, three times.

Lu Yuan didn't bother anymore.

I don't try it anymore.

These bullets are so expensive.

Anyway, it's definitely enough in this era.

And the soldiers at the scene were stunned again.

I gasped.

Hiss~~~

This?

This reload is so fast?!!

Holding a palm-sized piece of iron, he threw a pestle into it, and it didn't take more than three seconds.

This...... That's it?!!

In the stunned eyes of everyone.

Lu Yuan turned around and greeted people.

These individuals took off boxes and boxes of things from the trucks.

To be precise, it belongs to quad bikes.

It's like a self-propelled cannon, but it's actually a quad bike in front and a Hongyi cannon in the back.

The truck is also a quad bike in front and an oversized compartment in the back.

Then Lu Yuan looked at the thousands of people around the shooting range and greeted:

"Don't be stunned, line up, get guns, get ammunition."

Those who can come to the shooting range today will set off with themselves tomorrow and go to the major fortresses.

Among them, two hundred people from the Military Academy.

These two hundred people were originally the squad leaders and above generals of the Han Dynasty's army.

Continuing studies at the Military Academy.

The remaining 1,400 people were ordinary soldiers of the Han Emperor's regiment.

Now, of course, it's ordinary.

As long as you don't make any big mistakes in the future, it's not too stupid.

Basically, they will eventually be selected for further study at the Military Academy.

In the end, the lowest is a squad leader.

When the guns, ammunition is distributed.

Each soldier present was given two guns.

One is a flintlock pistol.

And then there's the M1 Garand.

Of course, it can't be called Garland here, so Lu Yuan changed his name.

It's called Celestial.

At this time, Lu Yuan stood in the center of the crowd and shouted loudly:

"Later, I went to the border and used this flintlock pistol.

This dragon is kept in a uniform wooden box every day, hidden in your armored vehicles, tanks.

Remember!!

Tianlong should be taken out every day to wipe and maintain.

But!

Don't use it for shooting, don't use it for training, don't use it for ordinary warfare! ”

Hearing this, everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and the expression of disappointment on your face is overflowing.

This everyone also wants to be like the prince just now.

Bang Bang Bang Crazy pull the trigger.

Especially the last ding.

It's so good, too.

And Lu Yuan is not over here, but continued:

"Only in a critical moment, an emergency military situation, or a specific situation, can it be used!

Also, it's okay to shoot inside the car, but when shooting outside the car, remember, after the battle, be sure to recover the cartridge casings!

Do you understand everything? ”

After Lu Yuan's words were finished, everyone around him with two guns immediately responded loudly:

"Got it!!"

And Lu Yuan nodded with satisfaction and smiled:

"This is usually training or something, just use a flintlock pistol, this flintlock pistol does not limit ammunition, just order."

This flintlock pistol is actually the prototype of the modern rifle.

Training with a flintlock pistol, it's almost enough.

It won't appear, there is really an emergency military situation, and everyone suddenly activated the Celestial Dragon only to find out that this thing will not work.

Of course, there is a slight difference between the two.

But I can't help it.

This bullet is so expensive.

Each of these fortress teams, excluding the logistics personnel, distributed to the soldiers in battle, had a total of about fifty or sixty rounds per person.

One person is seven or eight magazines.

You can only listen to it seven or eight times.

That's the amount of a battle.

This battle can't be big yet.

Anyway, it's a critical moment to save your life, or something.

Lu Yuan also saw that everyone was a little disappointed.

When even if it is the Tao again:

"This dragon is for everyone's life, because you have only recently negotiated going to the fortress.

We didn't have that many bullets for you.

And these bullets are extremely difficult and precious to make.

But this prince is here to assure you, and when our technology matures in the future.

All of us only use the Heavenly Dragon, and there are endless bullets! “

After Lu Yuan's words were finished, everyone instantly cheered.

Lu Yuan also grinned and said:

"Okay, the squad leaders of each squad teach their soldiers what insurance is and what is loading.

If you encounter a stuck, how to troubleshoot.

How to maintain the gun oil at ordinary times, how to disassemble and repair.

Teach it all in one day, and then put it away, and don't let anyone know about it.

This is our secret weapon, our means of saving our lives.

You get it, right? ”

Immediately, the crowd shouted:

"Understood!!"

……

Following.

In the early morning, the sky was bright.

The open space in the west of the city of Russi is here.

It's already overcrowded.

Rows and rows of tanks, armored vehicles, transport trucks.

The Emperor's guard of honor, the people.

The soldiers who went to the fortress, the family members.

The open space in the west of Luxi City is already overcrowded.

There are tens of thousands.

The most numerous of them are the common people.

These people are not fooled by Lu Yuan, they are willing to come.

The soldiers on Lu Xi's side are different from the rest of the Empire.

The other soldiers of this empire belong to the tiger in the eyes of the people, the military master.

But the situation on Russy's side is different.

The soldiers here are deeply rooted in the traditions of our army.

For example, when I came back from going out to practice, I saw that the people were pushing wooden wheeled carts in the field, so I helped to push them.

When I saw a child waiting for an adult in the field, I got out of the car and gave a piece of instant noodles and a little candy.

In particular, it is now an urban area of Lusi.

The vast majority of the people went to the city of Russi.

There are many, many deserted villages in the surrounding area.

But not all deserted villages have been moved, and none of them have been left behind.

There are many lonely and widowed elderly people in some villages.

They had no children or daughters, and they couldn't go to Luxi City by themselves, so they had to stay in the village by themselves.

For example, the soldiers on the side of Luxi City will go to help carry water and food every day.

Of course, these people who do good deeds are not the elite of the Han Dynasty's pro-army corps.

After all, these elites are practicing and training frantically every day.

There is no time to engage in military-civilian friendship, and the most they can do is go out to train and come back and help people push carts.

Most of the people who engage in these military-civilian friendships are ordinary soldiers of Luxi.

But in the eyes of the people.

What kind of pro-corps are you, and what kind of ordinary soldiers, aren't they all Luxi's soldiers, the same.

Therefore, these individual soldiers of Luxi are very loved by the people.

Of course, the reason why this can be done is naturally the strict military discipline set by Lu Yuan.

Whoever dares to take the people on the front line will be immediately expelled from the army.

It is forbidden to drink alcohol or smoke outside wearing military uniforms.

and so on.

There are even inspectors, who wear civilian clothes every day and wander around Luxi City.

If you see anyone who dares to wear a military uniform and behave misbehavingly in Luxi City, if you are caught, you will be severely punished.

And this series of measures down.

The soldiers on Lu Xi's side, this style of action is almost no different from our army on Earth.

And the good result is that the people knew that the soldiers of this Luxi were going to the fortress to defend their families and the country, and they all went out to see each other off.

At this time, Emperor Yongle, the crown prince, the king of Han, the king of Zhao, and some officials stood quietly and solemnly looking not far away.

It seems to say that a star awarding ceremony will be held before this expedition.

Emperor Yongle didn't know what it meant, so he watched it first.

But that's what it seems.

"This Lussi's soldiers...... It's really different......"

Emperor Yongle looked around and couldn't help but suddenly sigh softly.

You know, it's not just Lussi's soldiers here.

There are also many honor guards of Emperor Yongle, as well as Jinyi Guard, Jin Wuwei, Yulin Guard, these guards.

These soldiers are the most elite of the Lieqian Dynasty.

When I looked at these individuals before, I felt that these individuals were really powerful and domineering.

Especially those who follow the emperor.

They were all tall, strong, and good-looking.

But now you're looking at it like this......

Compare it to the soldiers on Russy's side......

It's as if he's suddenly become a ragtag......

This grows tall, grows strong, and becomes stupid and big......

Emperor Yongle felt that he was a janissary or something, and he didn't have the ability of his grandson.

Although it is said that the military ability of this soldier is not just based on appearances.

But...... Emperor Yongle just felt that his grandson's soldiers were better......

It's really strange, just my grandson's group of soldiers who are going to guard the fortress are not tall, and they don't look mighty.

This is especially the head ...... It's really not very high.

Because this armored car or something, it is more suitable for short people, and short people have an advantage.

Therefore, the soldiers of his grandson are generally a head shorter than his own guards.

But right......

Emperor Yongle just felt that his grandson was a soldier, and one could fight his own Praetorian Guards......

The prince on the side also knew the meaning of his father's words.

When even if it is the Tao:

"Maybe it's the clothes they wear, they look very energetic.

Unlike those of us who have tassels on the top of their heads and robes on their bodies, they make a mess when the wind blows, and they don't look neat. ”

Emperor Yongle looked into the distance and nodded slightly:

"This is really, don't you see, they seem to be particular about how to wear this helmet and that rope.

This station is also exquisite, as if this hand must be placed somewhere, everyone is the same, neatly aligned. ”

The crown prince nodded, and before he could say anything, Emperor Yongle was curious again:

"That's the coat they're wearing today......

Aren't they wearing leather clothes, how can they wear this again? ”

This prince also knows that the prince has not done anything else these days.

It's not for my dad to force me, I have to make a city like Lucy in the south.

Now this prince wanders around this Luxi City every day and inquires about things.

The prince really knows a lot about this matter in Luxi City.

Immediately, the prince immediately said:

"They seem to call it regular clothes, and this is a regular coat outside, a regular clothes in winter, and a regular clothes in summer.

The leather clothes I saw before were combat suits.

There is also a kind of training clothes, which are worn during training and rolling in the mud. ”

When Emperor Yongle heard this, he nodded and smiled:

"Lu Yuan, this kid, is really a bit of a doorway, and he has come up with so many things.

A soldier has three sets of clothes alone, and you don't want to wear this set of regular clothes alone.

Plus the leather shoes, and the black leather gloves, it looks really neat. ”

When the prince heard his father's words, he quickly glanced at his father.

What does this mean?

Wouldn't my father also want the other troops of the Lieqian Dynasty to wear such three sets of clothes?

Don't!

This Luxi is now rich in flowing oil, and all kinds of industrial products from several provinces are all from Luxi.

As long as it is produced by Luxi, it is immediately sold out everywhere.

In addition, Lu Yuan is in the south, and several important cities in the north have large factories.

His Lu Yuan's current net income for a year is several times the annual tax revenue of the entire Lieqian treasury!!

With so much money and raising so many thousands of soldiers, it is naturally casual.

You can afford to raise ten times more.

But that's not the case elsewhere.

Your own dad must not move this crooked mind.

Fortunately, what the prince was worried about did not happen.

Soon Emperor Yongle was diverted and said:

"What are they doing now?

What do you put on your neck and shoulders? ”

Mobilization before the war or something, Emperor Yongle naturally understood.

That's what I'm doing now, Emperor Yongle doesn't know much about it.

And after the prince glanced at it, he immediately said:

"It seems to be a star awarding ceremony, and among the generals who went to the border fortress this time, the supreme commander conferred it ★.

Minor generals ★.

☆ of the squad leader or something. ”

When Emperor Yongle heard this, he said with curiosity:

"Oh?

Offices?

Didn't the Ministry of War seal them before this? ”

The crown prince shook his head slightly and said:

"I don't know much about that, but I guess it's their own internal medal of honor or something, right?

The imperial court sealed it by the imperial court, and this was awarded by their military academy itself.

It's some kind of honor within themselves. ”

When Emperor Yongle heard this, he nodded slightly and smiled:

"It's kind of interesting."

……

At this time, Lu Yuan and Lu Wenqing were giving the generals of 200 people one by one, personally deducting the collar badge and don't have epaulettes.

★ These are finely carved from spirit stones.

It is particularly beautiful than jade and diamonds, and the key is the characteristics of the spirit stone, which will shine.

Of course, this is just a flash of the regular clothes.

Combat uniforms or something, they are embroidered with ordinary gold thread.

The highest of these is Lu Wenqing's, ★★★★ and the others are ★ the highest.

After the two of them awarded stars to two hundred generals.

It was all the same that turned around and walked on the high platform behind them.

Lu Yuan and Lu Wenqing stood together, facing two hundred generals and more than 1,400 soldiers.

Both of them raised their right hands at the same time, raised their fists in front of their eyebrows, and shouted at the same time:

"I swear!"

The 1,600 soldiers below raised their right hands in unison, neatly like robots.

shouted in unison:

"I swear!!"

The 1,600 soldiers shouted in unison, resounding through the sky.

Originally, there was some noise in the open space in the west of the city, but everyone fell silent for a moment.

The guards who stood at the scene to maintain order all turned their heads in a bit of astonishment to look in the direction where the voice started.

Lu Yuan, Lu Wenqing:

"I am a soldier of the Han Emperor's Legion of the Lieqian Empire!"
