5. Poison guns, improved bird guns

(Let's roll around all over the floor for favorites and subscriptions, thank you for your support!! ）

And Tie Pingliang was also very happy about Li Zixiao's attention, which made him very grateful to Li Zixiao, but also felt that there was light on his face.

Man! In addition to food and clothing, in fact, everyone subconsciously wants to be respected.

Artisans like them have never been looked down upon before, but now when they come to the White Dragon Army, they are valued so much by Li Zixiao.

This alone made them happy, so they naturally tried their best to do their work, otherwise they would also feel sorry for Li Zixiao's appreciation.

From the moment these blacksmiths entered the White Snake Village, the blacksmith shop on the mountain behind the White Snake Village did not stop for a moment.

The clanging sound of striking iron throughout the day was never stopped, and batches of three-edged spear heads began to be created continuously, and then they were replaced among the pikemen of the war barracks.

Some new soldiers. For this kind of black and seemingly simple gun, he was quite unimpressed, but experienced veterans saw the mystery at a glance.

The shape of the triangular spearhead is actually similar to the arrow of the triangular armor-piercing arrow used in the imperial army, but it is more sharp, and there are blood grooves on three sides.

In terms of shape alone, this kind of gun tip is more conducive to assassination, and cannot be used for other purposes, which also restricts the assassination action from being deformed.

If the action is deformed and swept away, it is basically like a stick, so it can only be used for assassination, which is why Li Zixiao's pikemen are practicing the stabbing technique.

In Li Zixiao's opinion, the most lethal attack of the pikeman is the direct stab, which is simple, direct and fast.

The straight line between the two points is the shortest, and the two armies are close to each other, and those who can attack each other first must account for sometimes, and a straight stab is much faster than a split.

And after getting these gun heads and replacing them with the gun barrel, Yan Chongxi immediately used this kind of gun head for a comparison test.

In order to make all his subordinates clearly understand the power of this three-edged thorn in his hand.

Li Zixiao asked a fat pig to be tied to a tree, and ordered two sturdy soldiers to use a spear equipped with an ordinary spear head and a three-edged thorn at the same time, and at the same time struggled to stab the fat pig.

Although both guns were successfully and deeply pierced into the body of the fat pig, the fat pig let out a terrible howl.

But when the soldier withdrew his hand and drew his gun, it was obvious that the three-edged gun head was used, and the gun was pulled out more smoothly.

And with the pulling out of the triangular thorn, the wound of the fat pig immediately spurted out a large amount of blood.

The ordinary willow leaf-shaped spear head, although it also caused a lot of damage to the fat pig, but when the gun was withdrawn, it was very laborious.

The fat pig did not die for a while, and the muscles contracted immediately, and tightly "sucked" the willow leaf-shaped spear head, which made the soldier with the gun draw the gun slowly.

In the end, although the spear head was also pulled out, the willow leaf-shaped spear head was obviously deformed after being pulled out, and the fat pig's wound obviously bleed as much as the bleeding caused by the triangular lance head.

At this time, even those inexperienced recruits naturally immediately saw the advantage of the triangular spearhead.

The three-edged tip has the advantage of such a comparison, not only is it much stronger than the willow leaf-shaped tip, but it is also not easy to break when the tip is pierced under normal circumstances.

And because of the three blood grooves on its body, the action of piercing and pulling the gun is smooth, and there is no sticky feeling, which is very important.

When a pikeman fights against an enemy, he often stabs the opponent with a single shot, but the opponent often does not immediately lose combat effectiveness.

The muscles of the enemy's body will contract violently because of the injury, which can often jam the tip of the opponent's gun, and then counterattack at the moment when the opponent is unable to draw the gun, which may often cause a lose-lose situation.

On the battlefield, life and death can often be decided in an instant, don't look at such a slight effort, but it may determine a person's life, so this alone, the three-edged gun head occupies a great advantage.

The onlookers immediately crouched down and carefully examined the wound of the fat pig on the ground.

Everyone immediately discovered that the wound caused by the three-edged gun head was obviously a triangular wound, and such a wound could not close on its own at all, resulting in greater bleeding.

The damage caused by the three-edged spear head was obviously much higher than that of the willow leaf-shaped spear head, which made everyone gasp.

"What a poisonous gun!" This is a thought that flashes through the minds of everyone who participated in the experiment.

So, the people who don't think about the three-edged gun head suddenly don't dare to underestimate the guy in their hands, this guy who is not good-looking, everyone can't put it down, and they all take the newly issued gun head to maintain and polish the blade.

Li Zixiao proudly watched these people do comparative tests, all of which could be said to be in his expectations.

Although later generations dare not say that they are smarter than their predecessors, the amount of information they receive is definitely not comparable to that of their predecessors.

The science of traumatology in later generations has been quite developed, and what kind of weapons will cause greater trauma to the human body, and the common sense known by later generations is probably far greater than that of ancient doctors.

When he saw that the soldiers were about to polish the three-edged spear head in their hands and sharpen the blade, Li Zixiao stopped them with words: "You don't have to do this, as long as you keep the tip of the spear sharp, you don't have to open the blade at all."

That would be much more effective to the enemy than after the blade was opened, and it would be better to have a little rust on the back of the spear head. ”

After saying that, Li Zixiao left a group of confused fellows from the second monk, ordered them to continue practicing, and turned back to work in the blacksmith shop.

Of course, Li Zixiao won't tell them what tetanus is, and even if they do, these people won't understand.

However, with what Li Zixiao said at this time, these people would still listen.

In the following week's White Snake Village, Li Zixiao inspected the cottage every day, supervised the training of recruits, and expanded the cottage at the same time, one thing after another, so that Li Zixiao couldn't stop.

At this time, the White Snake Village is no longer the previous White Snake Village, after the second expansion and repair of Li Zixiao's mobilization of thousands of people, the White Snake Village at this time has a new look.

The whole cottage is building a second walled wall on the periphery, this walled wall on the periphery is completely made of bluestone, and the whole walled wall presents a semi-arc, up to more than 200 meters, which is not a small project.

However, after thinking about it for a while, Li Zixiao decided to build this outer stone wall, because with this wall, they could enclose a larger piece of land into their cottage.

Expanding the area inside the cottage can be used to build more buildings, otherwise the size of the cottage at this time simply cannot accommodate so many people, as well as the construction of new blacksmith shops and other buildings.

In order to speed up the construction of the outer wall, Li Zixiao happened to use the thousands of displaced people outside the mountain pass.

Li Zixiao not only promised the displaced people who participated in the outer wall of the cottage that they could provide three full meals a day, but also told them that they would be given land to each of them afterwards.

Provide them with seeds, ploughing cattle, etc., and they need to pay 30% of the field rent to the White Dragon Army every year, and 40% for the first three years, and use it to compensate the White Dragon Army for the seeds and ploughing cattle provided to them.

As soon as this news was released, the countless homeless people outside the mountain pass went crazy one by one, and countless young men flocked to the White Snake Village to scramble to do labor.

Even, many young women also came to join in the fun, and in the end, Li Zixiao easily recruited enough people to build the outer walled without delaying the training of new recruits in the cottage.

Of course, Li Zixiao would not let those women and children do the rough work of these old men, but Li Zixiao still arranged work for these women.

Because spring is coming, the soldiers of the White Dragon Army should also take off their winter clothes and change into spring clothes, and Li Zixiao is now full of cloth in his hands.

Just took out a part of it and asked those women to make spring military uniforms for his soldiers, and even the first military uniform of the White Dragon Army was designed by him himself.

Nearly 5,000 men, young and able-bodied, began to build walls and other buildings outside the cottage day and night, and the work was in full swing.

And Li Zixiao has asked Qian Guangyuan to send people out to choose some suitable locations to prepare for the arrangement of these displaced people.

Anyway, at this time, the landlords in the entire Yongcheng County were either killed by him or ran away, leaving a large amount of land, and even a lot of wasteland that was not mined.

happened to be used by Li Zixiao to arrange these displaced people, at this time he did not lack land, what he lacked was population, otherwise he would not have used this way to attract more displaced people to come.

Li Zixiao only needs to send a supervisor to manage the work and food of the laborers on the construction site, and the man is responsible for cooking.

As for the construction of the White Tiger Village on the other side, Li Zixiao asked Zhou Dazhu to lead a team of soldiers, three hundred recruits, to be stationed there, and the White Snake Village happened to be a corner, echoing each other.

As for Qian Guangyuan, he was still busy working everywhere at this time, busy organizing people in various places to redistribute land, resettlement of displaced people, etc., and was even busier than Li Zixiao.

At this time, in Yongcheng County, except for the surrounding areas of the county, almost all other places were decided by the White Dragon Army, and it was in this way that Qian Guangyuan's work could be rolled out smoothly.

As for the stone materials for the construction of the outer wall, they are simply ready-made, and there are several stone yards in the mountain that Li Zixiao has selected to drive the stones, which is not a problem at all.

The raw materials and labor have been solved, and the outer cottage wall was designed by Li Zixiao himself, using a fortress-style design, and the defense is absolutely powerful.

Li Zixiao took a bird gun that had just been improved and repaired by Tie Pingliang, took it in his hand and tried to aim, so he said: "This kind of gun handle has been changed well, and it is much more comfortable." ”

Hearing Li Zixiao's praise, Tie Pingliang also smiled, he was very happy that his efforts were recognized by Li Zixiao.

"These are all modified by me, the handle of this gun can be held in the right hand, the left hand is flat-ended, all rely on the strength of the arm, the handle has been reshaped, and the butt has been lengthened.

When the musket is held to aim, there can be a support point on the shoulder to form a more stable support, so that it can be aimed more accurately, and it can definitely improve the hit.

All this is thanks to the idea provided by the big boss, I have to say, so that the modified bird gun is much more comfortable to use, and more convenient and practical.

The big boss is really familiar with our industry, when I heard Brother Sun say before, I didn't believe it, but now my subordinates really believe it. ”

"Haha, I just know a little bit about it, I just know a little bit about it." Li Zixiao snorted and said with a smile.

Nonsense, Lao Tzu is completely based on the design of the rifle of later generations, to tell you, of course it is easy to use, otherwise those weapon designers in the future will not all be waste!

In fact, Li Zixiao had discovered before this that there was a disadvantage in the bird guns they were using now.

It is the stock of the bird gun they use now, which is just a curved handle, which is very different from the shape of the rifle butt of later generations, and it is very primitive.

While the Musketeer can also place his face on the curved handle and aim with the door and crosshair, he can only use two hands to stabilize the gun.

It is far less stable than the shoulder stock of later rifles, and the hit rate is not as good as that of a gun with a shoulder stock.

So after that, Li Zixiao took the initiative to find Sun Tong and Tie Pingliang and put forward suggestions to the two of them for improving the bird.

Then Tie Pingliang improved the bird gun according to Li Zixiao's idea, so a bird gun with the current rifle look reappeared in front of Li Zixiao.

Li Zixiao handed the bird gun in his hand to a few bird gunners and others next to him, so that these users in the future team could also experience it for themselves.

Then, he walked up to Tie Pingliang and said earnestly: "Craftsmen don't have to stick to the old rules, if everything is sticking to the old rules, then you can't improve your skills."

In particular, when creating weapons, it is necessary to consider how to improve the effectiveness of the use of weapons, and I hope that in the future, I hope that the Iron Master will continue to improve the bird gun and even design better firearms.

I'm still thinking about one thing, Master Yang, come and see, although this bird gun is sharp, lead bullets can kill the enemy dozens of steps away.

However, the operation is very complicated, and often only one shot can be placed in battle, and it is too late to reload the second shot.

If a bird is on the battlefield, if you can only fire one shot, then it is too wasteful, once the bird is bullied by the enemy to get close, the bird gun will become a burning stick.

The Bird Gunner has no melee weapons at all, and can be said to be powerless in the face of the enemy, either they can only retreat behind the formation, or they can only be slaughtered by the enemy.

We also tried equipping the Bird Gun with a waist knife, but it was too much of a hindrance to the Bird Gunner's movement and shooting, so in the end we had to cancel it.

I figured that if we could put a short sword or a three-edged spear on the bird's gun, it would be a simple version of a spear!

Once the Birdman is no longer able to reload and kill an enemy before being in close proximity, the Musketeer can load the dagger at the point of the gun.

In this way, the bird gun can be used as a short bayonet, and the length of the bird gun and the short sword is about the same as the bayonet gun, and it should not be a loss to deal with an enemy army with a single knife.

In this way, the firecracker can also engage the enemy in close combat, and will not be powerless to fight back, Master Yang wonders if he can make this kind of short sword that can follow the tip of the bird's gun? ”

Tie Pingliang pondered, this is really the reason, after the bird gun is equipped with a short sword or short knife, it can indeed be used to fight the enemy.

In this way, the firecracker has an extra layer of protection for his life, and Tie Pingliang has to admit that Li Zixiao's idea is very unique.

Many times, some things are just thought of by people, and often as long as they are thought of, some things are very simple and thorough.
