The waves crashed against the huge hull of the Galen ship, and the wind howled. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In the distance, a black cloud is approaching, signaling a storm to come.

"Phew, our Highness doesn't need the support of you people with evil intentions."

The translator's words made Yue Yun sip hard.

Now the facts are very clear, the king of Chu has become a lackey of the Dutch, and it is no wonder that the king of Chu has become more and more arrogant over the years, and he has long been fearless.

"What should I do?" The translator looked at Yue Yun.

"Do as planned, let his companions get something and exchange him back, neither they nor the Dutch are good people."

Looking at the sea dyed black by dark clouds, Yue Yun felt heavy, whether it was a Dutch or a British, this confirmed the knowledge that Xiao Ming said to them in the school.

Now the Western powers have divided their sphere of influence into the country of Dayu, and according to Wilson, flintlock pistols have become a common equipment in the West, and sail warships sail around the world.

And in the Great Yu Kingdom, the Dutch had already introduced the arquebus into the fief of the King of Chu, and this news was extremely important, enough to give the King of Chu a fatal blow in the court.

Sighing, he looked at Qingzhou on the chart, hoping that now King Qi had produced the flintlock pistol.

……

Qingzhou, military workshop.

After the sound of firecrackers exploding, there was a burst of cheers from the test firing range of the military workshop.

On the test firing field, Xiao Ming was holding a brand-new flintlock pistol, and the muzzle of the gun was still smoking.

The butt of the flintlock pistol is made of brown mahogany, the barrel is covered with a bayonet, the position of Xiao Ming's finger is the position of the silver shining heart, the entire flintlock barrel is 107 cm long, 0.75 caliber, weighs 4 kg, and contains a bayonet 60 cm long.

While busy with cotton planting in the past two days, the first barrel was officially produced, and Zhang Liuma sent the barrel to the military workshop.

Song Changping, who had already completed the assembly of the rest of the accessories, assembled the barrel at this time, and a flintlock pistol was officially born.

And Xiao Ming, who got the news, also rushed to the military workshop, and Lu Tong also brought ammunition over.

"Your Highness, where did this bullet go?" Chen Qi looked ahead, not knowing where Xiao Ming's target was in this round of shooting.

"I don't know." Xiao Ming played with the flintlock pistol in his hand with satisfaction, "The accuracy of this flintlock pistol is very poor, and it needs to concentrate firepower to exert its power, and I don't know where this bullet flew just now." ”

Although Song Changping said that he had made a flintlock pistol, he would not use it at all, and they didn't know until Xiao Ming came over, which was almost no different from artillery.

The only difference now behind the firearm is the flint fire.

"So a bow and arrow are not as good as a bow?" Chen Qi looked strange, "Then why did Your Highness produce this thing?" It's better to let Song Changping follow me to produce artillery. ”

Song Changping pulled a group of people to produce muskets, this Chen Qi was distressed, and now seeing that the muskets were not as good as artillery, he took the opportunity to say, wanting to recover the losses.

"You can make artillery, but you don't know how to march and fight, this flintlock pistol is much more important than artillery, and this king can count on it to drive the barbarians away." Xiao Ming gently stroked the flintlock pistol.

The flintlock pistol was finally produced, and Xiao Ming's mood suddenly relaxed, at least Qingzhou once again narrowed the generation gap between Western weapons.

Everyone was talking about the musket with joy, when suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves outside the military workshop.

Niu Ben and Lu Fei appeared in front of everyone.

"Your Highness, has the flintlock pistol been produced?" Niu Ben looked forward to it.

Xiao Ming nodded, and threw one of the other two flintlock pistols into one.

"Your Highness, this guy is worthy of a spear." Lu Fei was holding a flintlock pistol, and the first thing he noticed was the bayonet on the wall.

Niu Ben nodded, "No wonder His Highness said that the pikemen were going to be disbanded, and the musketeers that are now equal to the formation are pikemen." ”

"The old general understands now, this musketeer is a long-range soldier, but also a short-range soldier, in the face of the barbarian iron cavalry charge, the musketeer can shoot from a distance, close to the hand-to-hand combat, will not be so easily slaughtered by the cavalry."

Niu Ben's eyes were full of excitement, this flintlock pistol was very magical in Xiao Ming's mouth, and he said, "Your Highness, how to use this gun?" ”

Xiao Ming smiled, this is to Chen Qi said: "Take a set of plate armor and hang it eighty meters away." ”

Chen Qi got the order and took a set of plate armor and hung it on the target eighty meters away, which was almost the maximum effective range of the flintlock pistol in this position.

Then he said to Niu Ben and Lu Fei: "You stand on both sides of this king and follow this king's learning. ”

As he spoke, Xiao Ming handed the flintlock ammunition to the two.

Although Niu Ben and Lu Fei were strange, they still did what Xiao Ming said.

At this time, Xiao Ming put the flintlock pistol on the ground, bit off the ammunition and poured the gunpowder and projectile into the barrel of the flintlock pistol, then used the through strip to compact the gunpowder and the projectile, and sprinkled some gunpowder in the powder pool, and raised the flintlock pistol and aimed it at the plate armor.

Niu Ben and Lu Fei did the same, and also picked up the flintlock pistol.

"Fire!" Xiao Ming gave an order, pulled the trigger, and there was another gunshot plus green smoke, and there were two gunshots on both sides of him.

It's just that Niu Ben and Lu Fei's posture of raising the gun is a little wrong, and the gun in their hands is almost unstable.

"That's pretty strong." After seeing the artillery, Lu Fei was not as shocked by the flintlock pistol as he was when he first saw the artillery.

And like Chen Qi, he felt that it was a shrunken artillery.

"Did you hit?" Putting down the gun, Lu Fei said excitedly.

Niu Ben also showed a look of expectation, and their expectations for the flintlock pistol were very high.

It's just that the people who went to investigate came back soon and didn't hit.

"No, I'm aiming at it." Niu Ben was a little unconvinced.

Xiao Ming didn't respond, but said, "Second round of shooting." ”

Niu Ben and Lu Fei scratched their heads, so they had to load their ammunition again and shoot again.

"Shot." The men who had gone to investigate brought back the plate armor.

After two rounds of shooting, Niu Ben felt that the flintlock pistol was not as accurate as a bow and arrow, but after seeing the hole in the plate armor, he was silent, and the bullet completely penetrated the plate armor.

"Old General, you must disdain the accuracy of this flintlock pistol now, but this king is not here to show you this." He said to Chen Qi, Song Changping and others: "The three of you will also come again." ”

Chen Qi, Song Changping and Zhang Liu nodded excitedly, and immediately took the flintlock pistol and stood in the position of the three of them just now.

"The old general has been on the battlefield for a long time, and his archery skills are unparalleled, so he can naturally penetrate Yang in a hundred steps, but with a flintlock pistol, even a person like Chen Qi, who has never touched a sword, can kill a seasoned barbarian cavalry at such a distance."

"Bang Bang ......"

As he was talking, Chen Qi and the others had already opened fire.

"Hit!"

The investigators soon came back to report, and when Niu Ben heard this, his face suddenly became heavy.
