The fire caused by the musket far exceeded Zhen Qian's original expectations, and Zhen Qian originally planned to send a hundred muskets and some training guns to the recruit barracks, planning to train a thousand musketeers and put them into the battlefield to temper when the opportunity was right.

The plan was good, but Zhen Qian didn't calculate that after Zhen Jiu and the others saw the muskets, the scorching light in their eyes seemed to be endless, as if anyone who wanted to take the muskets away from his face, they would never die, and even put forward a bunch of unreasonable demands to Zhen Qian, insisting that the first batch of muskets be left in the military camp on the North Main Island.

"Master, this first batch of muskets must be left in the garrison camp on the North Main Island, if such a sharp weapon is not equipped with the garrison camp first, it will make the soldiers in the garrison camp feel cold?"

"Yes! The significance of this batch of muskets is too important, and now the strength of the North Main Island is not enough, if there are these 100 muskets, the strength will be greatly improved, and it can really protect the safety of the North Main Island? ”

“……”

Zhen Qian couldn't laugh or cry, these people were preparing to equip all the muskets with the garrison battalion, I am afraid they wanted to find an opportunity to divide the first batch of muskets.

The strength of the North Main Island is indeed very weak, but the safety of the Goho Islands can still be guaranteed, and the surrounding Silla and Wa kingdoms will not notice the existence of the Goho Islands for a short time, and the threat is already sensational.

But Zhen Qian had to consider the feelings of these people, everyone around him was very important to him, their existence was his foundation, compared to the musket seemed insignificant, just a little hesitation, he had already given up the idea of training musketeers immediately, and it was really worth delaying for three or four months in exchange for the loyalty of these people.

"In this case, these 100 muskets will be left in the garrison camp first, and now there are only 50 people in the garrison battalion, and the strength is indeed too weak, so let the recruit training camp select another 50 people with excellent training results to supplement the guard battalion and establish the first musket team ......."

"The master is wise!"

Zhen Jiu was holding a musket in his arms, although he was not a thousand households in the guard battalion, but this guard battalion was temporarily under the command of Wang Tianxing, and he could come and go at will, which was equivalent to having the opportunity to get close to him.

At this time, Zhen Sandao, who was standing on the side and watching coldly, said: "Master, the Suzaku II riding spear has also been successfully developed, and this time I brought ten, please check it out?" ”

Zhen Qian's face showed a look of ecstasy, and he was suddenly more excited than when he saw the Huaxia Type 3 musket before, and only he understood what the appearance of the cavalry spear meant for cavalry combat.

A qualified cavalryman not only has good horse control skills, but also has the skills to fight with a bow and arrows on the horse, and it is impossible to train a cavalryman who can ride a horse and shoot arrows without five years, and it takes ten years to become an elite cavalryman.

The herdsmen on the steppe have lived on horseback since childhood, and their natural riding and archery skills in daily life are higher than those of the Han people who cultivated in the Central Plains.

No matter how many times in history the Han people crossed the Great Wall to attack the grassland, they could not really defeat the Hu people on the grassland, that is, they lagged behind the herders in overall mobility.

With the cavalry lance, the training time of the cavalry can be shortened to two years, the number of Han cavalry can be expanded countless times, and the advantage of the herdsmen can be suppressed with the advantage of weapons and equipment.

Riding a gun is a sharp weapon for Zhen Qian to prepare and plan to pass through the grassland!

The riding gun in Zhen San's hand is a bit big, the length has reached seven inches, and the appearance falls in the eyes of others, which is completely different from the Huaxia Type 3 musket, the barrel is short and slender, and there is a runner in the back, under the eyes of the people around him, Zhen San unhurriedly added projectiles and gunpowder to the runner, and a total of four Mini bullets were stuffed into the front and back. This piqued everyone's curiosity.

"This is the newly developed Suzaku II cavalry gun, also known as the Suzaku II pistol, which can shoot with one hand, but the power and shooting distance are much smaller than the Huaxia III musket", Zhen San handed the loaded cavalry gun to Zhen Qian, and continued to install projectiles on another cavalry gun while introducing the cavalry lance.

Zhen Qian took the riding gun, and the appearance of the riding gun fell in Zhen Qian's eyes, and the appearance could only be described as rough, but this riding gun was already the limit with the industrial technology of the Tang Dynasty, and it could even be called the top high-tech of this era.

"Hmmm! This riding gun is really well designed! ”

Hearing Zhen Qian's praise, a smile appeared on Zhen San's expressionless face, and he continued to explain the performance of the cavalry gun to the people around him: "When designing the musket, the master said that the appearance of the musket could be reduced to be more suitable for cavalry combat, so I made the first cavalry spear, and considering the inconvenience of ammunition for cavalry in combat, the Suzaku 1 cavalry gun is designed with two barrels, which can fire two projectiles ...... back and forth. ”

Zhen Qian nodded unscrupulously when he listened, in fact, Zhen San's first cavalry gun had been designed very well, and the appearance was very similar to the double-barreled shotgun of later generations, but unfortunately this gun was found to be not suitable for cavalry combat after the experiment, and because of the complex process, the manufacturing difficulty was not small, and the double barrel also increased the weight, and the cost was also high, which was not suitable for large-scale production.

At this time, Zhen San put forward several design plans for riding guns, including the prototype of the current Suzaku II type, and the design concept absolutely surpassed this era.

The barrel of the Suzaku II is hexagonal, not the round shape of the barrel of the musket, and the magazine is not the kind that can hold six bullets in later generations, but can only hold four projectiles, and the effective shooting distance is only less than thirty paces, but such a gun is already the limit of the wolf's den.

"Because the length of the barrel of the rifle is less than one-fifth of the barrel of the musket, the processing difficulty is reduced by ten times, so the rifle has derived a lot of models, but because of the lack of manufacturing capacity, it has not begun large-scale manufacturing, but this time I brought some samples, let you experience it for yourself, and put forward some suggestions for improvement?"

Saying that, Zhen San took out a few riding guns with similar appearance from another wooden box, but these riding guns can no longer be called riding guns, they can only be called pistols.

The riding guns that Zhen San brought this time are all samples, there are single-shot riding guns, and there are also double-shot riding guns, compared with real riding guns, they lack a runner that can install four-round projectiles, which is very similar to the most primitive pistols in later generations in Zhen Qian's eyes. However, these alternative riding guns have one thing in common, because the revolver structure is canceled, and the airtightness is better when firing, so the firing distance is farther than that of the real riding gun, but it is lower than that of ordinary muskets, but it is easy to carry and use, and it is Zhen San specially shot for some high-ranking officers.

Of course, there is also the purpose of testing the performance of these guns in practical applications.
