Chapter 227
Xie Qin thought for a long time before he said to Zu Yuji: "You say, the ancient gun fighting technique is different from the modern gun fighting technique. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Yes, yes!" Zu Yuji nodded repeatedly, "The difference between ancient and modern times is due to the limited technological level of the musket. In the late Qing Dynasty, foreigners coerced the Qing court to open the port, and a large number of imported goods poured in, including muskets. The muskets of the foreigners were completely different from the muskets of the Qing Dynasty at that time, at least two generations ahead. ”
"Two generations?" said Sechin in surprise.
"Well, that's where we start with the development of muskets. Zu Yuji said, "The musket has a front-loading gun and a rear-loading gun, which means the loading position, the front-loading gun is loaded from the front of the chamber, and the rear loading gun is loaded from the back of the chamber, and the rear-loading gun is more advanced than the front-loading gun. There is also a distinction between front-loading guns, those that fire with an arquebus are called arquebuses, and those that are fired with flint are called flintlock guns. Although they are all single-shot guns, the arquebus is complicated from loading to firing, with more than a dozen steps, while the flintlock pistol is much simpler, from the rate of fire, the range to the hit rate, are better than the arquebus. ”
"Oh......"
Zu Yuji said: "During the Opium War, the British army used flintlock pistols and defeated the Qing army equipped with arquebuses. Later, the West had a pull-bolt rear-loading gun, that is, the kind of rifle that shoots one shot at a time. ”
"I know. Sechin nodded.
Zu Yuji added: "The range, hit rate and reload speed of the rear-loading gun were much higher than that of the flintlock pistol, and then later, all kinds of repeating firearms poured in, and the Perak Hall was shocked, and they realized that the musket was greatly behind the times, so they turned to the rear-loading gun, and cooperated with foreigners for this purpose. In the last years of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, a large number of firearms poured into the rivers and lakes, and more and more people in the rivers and lakes used firearms. ”
"Huh?" Xie Qin was stunned, this was not the same as what he said in the martial arts dramas.
Zu Yuji glanced at him and said with a smile: "Are you surprised?"
"yes. Xie Qin nodded, "I thought that the people in the rivers and lakes should be more resistant to this kind of thing." ”
Zu Yuji said: "Well, it's not surprising that you have this idea, but this is a misunderstanding. ”
Xie Qin said: "I'm listening. ”
Zu Yuji didn't explain immediately, but asked a question:
"Do you remember what Ah Zhong said earlier, about the Tang Sect and the elder brother?"
"Of course I remember," Xie Qin nodded, "the things of the Republic of China are right?"
Zu Yuji asked again: "Then do you remember, what kind of weapons did the two sides use?"
"Weapons?" Xie Qin was stunned, "Brother Zhong doesn't seem to be so detailed...... Huh?"
His heart moved.
“...... Is it a gun?"
"Yes. Zu Yuji smiled and nodded, "The elder brother will lead the warlord to attack the Tang Gate, and the people below the warlord are all holding guns, if the Tang Gate only uses hidden weapons, it will not be able to resist them, and at that time, not only will the four halls fall, but the Tang Family Fort may also be lost." ”
"That's ......" Xie Qin nodded, he didn't think about it when he heard Tang Zhong talk about it in the afternoon, and only now did he react.
Zu Yuji said: "This is the attitude of the people in the rivers and lakes towards muskets, the nine-stream gang is very pragmatic, they know that the killing efficiency of firearms is much higher than that of swords, and the big gangs with money and power buy a large number of firearms, and the little-known small gangs also want to get a few prestige, therefore, firearms quickly became popular in the rivers and lakes." But in this way, it has also broken Peraktang's perennial monopoly on firearms, and it is no longer a standout. ”
"You're talking about the Nine-Stream Gang, what about those famous sects?" Xie Qin asked.
Zu Yuji replied: "At the beginning, the three famous sects were relatively resistant, but they couldn't stop the torrent of the times. ”
I see, Xie Qinxin said, it seems that those famous sects of the three religions should have suffered a big loss, it is estimated that the disciples walked the rivers and lakes, disagreed with each other, drew their swords, and were shot to death by the ninth-rate disciples.
He thought about it for a while, and then said to Zu Yuji: "There is a problem. ”
"Say it. Zu Yuji nodded.
Xie Qin said: "If the people in the rivers and lakes attach so much importance to firearms, why can Perak Hall still monopolize firearms for a long time?"
"The reason is simple - because they don't spread the word. Zu Yu Ji said.
Well, Xie Qinxin said, this is really simple.
"If you don't spread the word, you can grab it. He said to Zu Yuji.
Zu Yuji smiled: "First of all, you have to be able to fight, and secondly, you have to be able to find the location of the Thunderbolt Hall." ”
Xie Qin was speechless for a moment, forgetting that Perak Hall had been low-key for a long time, and its location was probably as little known as Tangjiabao.
Xie Qin said: "That...... You can attack a lone disciple. ”
"Just for a few muskets?" Zu Yuji smiled and said, "What are you going to do when you take it back?"
What she said made Xie Qin feel uncertain, and responded: "Research, research." ”
"How many technocratic sects do you think there are in the rivers and lakes?" Zu Yuji asked rhetorically.
"Uh......" Xie Qin was speechless again, with his own understanding of the rivers and lakes, how could he know this.
Zu Yuji said again: "If it can really be developed, there will be firearms everywhere a long time ago, and the rivers and lakes are not a gathering place for scientists, most of the people in the rivers and lakes are big and coarse, and he won't use it if you give him a musket." Not to mention the method of making muskets, the refining of gunpowder alone is already difficult for them. “
"Okay......" Xie Qin was speechless, this is indeed the truth.
Zu Yuji said: "It's far away again, back to the topic just now, Western firearms poured into the country, on the one hand, there are more and more people with guns in the rivers and lakes, breaking the monopoly of Perak Hall, on the other hand, after research, Perak Hall has gradually mastered Western firearms, and improved gun fighting techniques, which are somewhat similar to the gun martial arts of "Heavy Loading Mission", through some body movements to avoid the ballistics of bullets, and then use the guns in their hands to kill and injure opponents, pay attention to fast, accurate, and ruthless. And the word 'fight' in the gun fighting technique, Perak Hall did not fall, they made a magic change to the musket, and the gun fighting master of Perak Hall is not only a master of marksmanship, but also a master of short weapons. ”
“...... That's amazing. Xie Qin was dumbfounded, how amazing it is to be able to dodge bullets? It's just like "The Matrix"!
Zu Yuji looked at Xie Qin's expression, as if he knew what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be so surprised, in fact, this kind of gun fighting technique is far less fantastical than in the movie, it can just cope with the general situation, and if you really encounter that kind of scene of random gun salvo, you can only be beaten into a sieve." ”
"Oh......" Xie Qinxin said, it is very good to be able to cope with the general situation.
"Having said that, although it's not so fantastical, it's much stronger than those people in the rivers and lakes who stand and shoot and don't even know how to hide. Therefore, Perak Hall has once again emerged in the rivers and lakes of the firearms age. ”
That is, the big horn stood and fired, which seemed to be a lot of shooting net games, and he was used to shooting against people...... Eh, there were no online games at that time...... Xie Qin shook his head secretly, no matter what, such a shot is a live target in the eyes of ordinary soldiers, let alone those masters of spear fighting?
Xie Qin accepted this setting, and asked Zu Yuji: "Then later, why did you say that Perak Hall is 'good at technology in the north, and good at tools in the south'?"
Zu Yuji said: "Because of the division during the Republic of China. ”
"Hmm. Xie Qin nodded, he still knew about this.
Zu Yuji said: "When the Perak Hall was divided, the North Perak Hall took away all the techniques of gun fighting, resulting in the incompleteness of the gun fighting skills of the South Perak Hall, and it could only be made up by improving the firearms, so there was a saying that 'the North is good at skills, and the South is good at weapons'. ”
"Why can't we study new gun fighting techniques?" asked Sechin.
Zu Yuji said with a smile: "It would be nice if it was so easy, it was a genius who improved the gun fighting technique back then, and designed a lot of exquisite moves, and in the future, the Thunderbolt Hall will never have this character again, the gun fighting technique was born from many actual battles, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it was born in blood, and it is too difficult to start all over again." ”
Xie Qin thought for a moment and said, "However, in the Southern Thunderbolt Hall, there should be masters who are familiar with gun fighting skills, right? ”
Zu Yuji said: "The problem is that when the Thunderbolt Hall was divided, there was a fire, and the spearfighting masters of the Southern Thunderbolt Hall were all dead. ”
"That's really ...... It's miserable. Xie Qin was speechless.
"Who's to say it isn't. Zu Yuji shook her head and smiled.
It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and I'm afraid that the South Perak Hall will be sluggish from now on. Xie Qinxin said.
"By the way, Xiaoyu, you said before that your gun was given to you by the seniors of the Northern Perak Hall?"
"Yes. Zu Yuji nodded, took the violin case to the table, opened it, and the strangely shaped gun appeared in front of Xie Qin's eyes again in the form of parts.
"The technology of the North Perak Hall is not as good as that of the South Perak Hall," she introduced to Xie Chin, "However, when the predecessors created this gun, they had already applied all the techniques mastered by the North Perak Hall. ”
"Oh, no wonder this gun is so weirdly shaped. Sechin said half-jokingly.
Zu Yuji smiled: "It's weird, it's a little weird, but it's quite easy to use, some parts can also be used as weapons, you see-" She said and picked up the butt of the gun and lit up at Xie Qin.
Xie Qin looked at it, and if he wanted to talk about the butt, it was indeed the shape of the butt, but he always felt that the shape was strange.
Zu Yuji said: "This is made by the predecessors after the Indian war sticks. ”
"Indian batons?"
"Yes. Zu Yuji nodded, "It's the hand-to-hand combat weapon of the North American Indians." ”
"Oh......" Xie Qin nodded, although he hadn't heard of it, but he seemed to be very powerful. Then he sighed that over the years, Perak Hall has still maintained the characteristics of magic reform, and it has become more and more internationalized, and even North American weapons have been used as a reference.
Zu Yuji said again: "You also saw it last time, this gun has many functions, such as anesthetic injections, ropes, etc., but it can't shoot bullets." ”
