Chapter 531: Old Equipment

At this time, Qi Jiguang said again: "If there is a gap between the equipment, then it is okay to say, but because our soldiers have not fought for many years, their military strength has decreased a lot, and they are not the opponents of the Japanese Invaders."

After listening to Qi Jiguang's analysis, Liu Suifeng immediately said: "Since the general has said so, there are obviously some methods, I don't know if I can say it." ”

"I still can't hide it from Brother Liu, indeed, after coming to Longshan Institute, I will rectify military discipline and train soldiers, many people who can't use guns and cannons are also required to practice, but there will definitely be no good improvement in this period of time, only after a long time, can I make progress!"

"What's the general's plan?"

"I can't calculate it, but there is a small solution, that is, to improve the firearms, so that we can have the strength to fight! Whether it is our military ships or the firearms and artillery used by the infantry, they need to be improved. The overall problem with the firearms we are using now is that they have a short range and insufficient lethality. And the same is true of artillery, and there are some artillery pieces that are easy to blow up and bor, and this hidden danger can easily cause large-scale damage. ”

"In that case, we still have a lot to do!"

Liu Suifeng's expression was a little ugly, what General Qi said should be the real situation.

He also understood that after all, the Ming army had not fought for many years, and many of the weapons used should have been many years ago.

The same is naturally true of artillery, compared with the Dongying Wakou, the Ming army has no war all year round, but Dongying has fought a civil war.

Therefore, in terms of equipment, Dongying's should be more advanced.

Now it seems that the top priority is to strengthen and improve the artillery guns.

Liu Suifeng thought to himself if he could try it, but he didn't say it immediately.

Because he himself was not sure whether he could improve it, he immediately said: "General Qi, I am very interested in the firecracker, I wonder if you can take a look?"

Hearing Liu Suifeng's words, Qi Jiguang said directly: "The fire gun was originally an extremely confidential object, but since Brother Liu, you have joined our anti-Japanese team, then it doesn't hurt to take a look, you can come with me!"

After that, everyone left the beach and went to the lobby of Longshan Institute.

In fact, in the Ming Dynasty, firearms were already a must-have in the army.

Even if it's not a lot of it, it's definitely not going to be none.

Therefore, many armies will have their own firecracker team, because firecrackers are more precious, so the management of firecrackers is extremely strict.

If it weren't for this special time, Liu Suifeng and they wouldn't have been so simple if they wanted to see the fire guns provided by the imperial court.

When he came to the arsenal, Liu Suifeng saw that there were a lot of firearms placed here, and there were dozens of them.

However, compared to the number of defenders in Longshan, these dozens of firearms are extremely few!

There is a lot of iron sand in it, as well as gunpowder and other materials, all of which are extremely well protected.

The arsenal is guarded by a special person, so it is very strictly guarded.

Picking up a firecracker, Liu Suifeng played with it in his hand for a while, and found that the whole was a little bulky and a little troublesome to carry.

And most of the firecrackers here are a bit old, looking like they're some years old.

"General Qi, these firecrackers seem to be a little old!"

Before Liu Suifeng could speak, Hai Dashao found out about this and asked directly.

When Qi Jiguang heard this, he immediately nodded and said: "That's true, these things are all a few years ago, and even longer, many of them can't be used, and I have sent many craftsmen to repair them." ”

"The imperial court didn't pay attention to this aspect before, but now it is urgently needed, just take these old things, I really want to pinch those dogs who can only criticize others and can't do practical things one by one!"

Wang Rulong didn't seem to like these fire guns very much, and the dog things he was talking about were naturally those who managed these things in the court.

Listening to Wang Rulong's words, Qi Jiguang shook his head: "This is not anyone's sin, the entire Ming Dynasty is like this, if it weren't for the fact that the Japanese are too fierce, it is estimated that the emperor may not know about this matter! Our Ming army is indeed very weak!"

"General, if you can trust me, hand over the fire guns here to the next one, and I want to go back and study it carefully. ”

Liu Suifeng immediately clenched his fists and said solemnly.

Although he didn't know if he could, he was a little disappointed to see that these equipment were so backward, so he directly volunteered to improve it.

Hearing Liu Suifeng's words, Qi Jiguang looked at Liu Suifeng and asked, "Shaoxia, do you still understand this?"

Liu Suifeng understands that this kind of thing is not known to anyone in this era, so it is even more impossible for anyone to easily know that it is far away.

Liu Suifeng immediately clenched his fists and said half-truthfully: "I have liked things like firecrackers and artillery since I was a child, so I know a little about it, and I also want to study it and contribute to the fight against the Japanese." ”

"Brother Liu is really versatile, okay, since Brother Liu wants to try to improve the firecracker, then I will make an exception and send one to Brother Liu!

After Qi Jiguang finished speaking, he directly asked the person who took care of the fire gun to give Liu Suifeng a fire gun.

Liu Suifeng directly handed the fire gun to Liangchen, and then went directly to look at the artillery.

These cannons, like the guns, are very old.

Many of them are rusty, and the cannons are not big, and the materials seem to be of very inferior quality, far inferior to the steel of the twenty-first century.

Liu Suifeng took a good look at it, and then fused the memories of his previous life.

At this time, it was found that the firing principle of these guns had completely changed.

The principle of these cannons in front of you is similar to ordinary fireworks, extremely simple.

Liu Suifeng began to think in his heart, he didn't know the principle of advanced artillery, but he only knew some shapes.

And even if you know it, it's useless, in this era, it is impossible to have such a good process.

So, you have to start from other aspects.

For a while, Liu Suifeng didn't have a good method, so he carefully wrote down the appearance of the cannon in front of him, and then prepared to go back to find some paper and pencils, study it carefully, and see if he could find a way to improve and strengthen it.

Later, everyone went to visit the firecracker team, because the firecracker is very cherished, so the firecracker team is replaced by wooden sticks.

In normal training, real firecrackers are rarely used, and only when it is time to fight will they be taken out and used.

The number of firecrackers in this team is a bit larger than the number of firecrackers, and it seems that many people don't have firecrackers to use when they are really fighting.

Liu Suifeng sighed in his heart, I don't know what those officials in the court think, such an important weapon can lag behind to this point.

No wonder the Japanese were able to run rampant on their own territory, and the court of the Ming Dynasty was really useless.

Fortunately, now there is Qi Jiguang, a far-sighted general, and he will definitely get some improvement in the future!
