Longevity Begins with Jinyiwei

Chapter 202: Heavyweight of the country

"Success!"

"It was a success!"

Jintaifang Camp, an open space on the northwest side, followed by a burst of fire, and a burst of cheers suddenly filled the open space.

In the field, a dozen or so men dressed as craftsmen were all happy at the moment.

"This gun should be the most important weapon of the country!"

"Niu Guanshi, you have done a great job this time!"

Yan Shun fondly held a fire gun, as if he was holding some kind of treasure.

"Everything depends on the trust of Lord Hou, and the little one just did what he should do..."

Having said that, Niu's five expressions seem to be unloading a heavy burden, and his face is full of joy.

A little gift from a superior, for a low-level craftsman like him, it is a great kindness.

The same is true for the Ordnance Department, which was almost forgotten by Li Xiu.

When they were transferred from the Inner Court War Bureau, Li Xiu didn't hold out much expectations after learning that the Fusilien gun could not be developed overnight. behind the head.

But his words are like a mountain of military orders in the Yongwei Camp. This Ordnance Division has taken root in the Yongwei Camp, and as time goes by, it has expanded little by little.

Especially in the Yongwei Camp, when there is no shortage of money or materials, the people below naturally dare not neglect the things he personally ordered, and the investment in the Ordnance Division is naturally not small.

Niu Wu naturally doesn't know what Li Xiu is thinking, but in his opinion, this Marquis treats them with the utmost kindness and honor!

People at the bottom, naturally, can see it very naturally.

Although it is impossible to say that the sergeant died for the confidant, he lived a life that other craftsmen could not even imagine, and had a status that other craftsmen could not even imagine, let alone that month, he was comparable to other craftsmen. The household’s salary for several years…

Everything is too dreamy.

No one wants this dream to be shattered!

If you don't want to, you can only keep your business and make some achievements to make this dream more practical.

Fortunately, now, it has finally been achieved, and this dream is much more practical!

"Credits are credits, you can't say no to a refusal. You should prepare quickly, Mr. Niu, and I will report it to the general, and you can wait for the general's reward!"

Yan Shun was also full of joy, as a general, how could he not see the benefits of this flintlock gun in front of him!

Just the fact that the flint was fired completely changed the role of the fire gun in the war!

In the war, there is no need to worry about the fire guns being unable to be fired due to the influence of the weather, and thus losing their effect!

Not to mention the other advantages of the flintlock!

Once this gun is released, it will greatly enhance the status of the fire gun in the army!

Even, when necessary, it is not impossible for the fire guns to form an independent army!

"The Guard Battalion should be the first to install this flintlock gun..."

After muttering to himself, Yan Chuan happily walked towards the Beijing army camp outside the city.

"Flint gun?"

Seeing Yan Shun with a happy face in front of him, Li Xiu was also stunned. Since the craftsman said that the flintlock gun was not a one-time job, he really forgot about it, and he never thought of it. And suddenly gave him such a surprise!

"Walk!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Xiu got on his horse, waved his whip, and galloped. Seeing this, Yan Shun also hurriedly mounted his horse, followed closely behind, and went straight to the Jintaifang camp.

"Can this gun be mass-produced?"

Turning over and dismounting, Li Xiu's first sentence was like this.

"Can!"

"As long as the scale is expanded and the raw materials are sufficient, mass production can be done at any time!"

"it is good!"

Li Xiu nodded, his eyes fixed on the craftsmen holding flintlock guns: "Let them demonstrate!"

Compared with the matchlock gun, the firing of the flintlock gun is undoubtedly much simpler.

Charge, pull the trigger, fire!

The tedious ignition procedure of the matchlock gun is omitted. Of course, the most important thing is that the influence of the weather on the firearm is greatly reduced, and the process from charging to shooting is also much simpler.

The simple firing procedure means that the same firing, the flintlock firing, takes less time.

On the battlefield, a flintlock formation, even if it is only fired one more round, will obviously have a predictable impact on the situation of the battle.

After watching the demonstration of the craftsman, Li Xiu couldn't hide his joy. When he was planning how to change the war form changed by the flintlock gun, he immediately stopped the craftsmen and called a few relatives beside him. Wei, let a few people take the flintlock gun and demonstrate again.

"Immediately, with the order of this marquis, go to the war station and transfer a group of craftsmen!"

After the demonstration, Li Xiu played with the flintlock gun in his hand, and the order was also given.

"Niu Wu, go with you, what do you need, tell the people in the war bureau!"

"Be sure to expand the size of the Ordnance Department as soon as possible and mass-produce flintlock guns!"

"Also, Niu Wu, you can look farther. For example, how to improve the flintlock gun and how to improve other firearms can all be put on the agenda."

"If you have free time on weekdays, go for a walk in the army and listen to the opinions of the soldiers..."

After speaking, Li Xiu recovered from the plan in his mind and looked around the craftsmen in front of him.

"You guys did a great job this time!"

"The flintlock spear, the most important weapon of the country, is a great achievement, and it should be rewarded!"

"Everyone in the Ordnance Department will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver, and the monthly salary will be doubled!"

"Niu Wu, you prepare a list, summarize the meritorious people and hand them over to this marquis, and this marquis wants to report to His Majesty, please seal it for you!"

As soon as these words came out, not only Niu Wu, but the expressions of the craftsmen present were all uncontrollable.

At this moment, Li Xiu obviously didn't care what these craftsmen thought. At this moment, his mind was all on this flintlock gun.

Flintlock, plus cardboard bullets!

Regarding the changes in the military system, although UU Reading www.uukanshu.com cannot be said to be a complete change, its impact is definitely not small.

At the very least, the influence of weather on firearms is minimized in this era.

In this way, firearms will completely come out of the limitation of "defense" and have the attribute of mobile attack.

Moreover, in this era, there are martial arts. When a soldier with a certain martial arts foundation is skilled in using flintlock guns, its role is obviously greater than that of the musket corps recorded in history!

With both offense and defense, coupled with the assistance of other arms, it is obvious that the popularity of firearms in the army can be further improved, and it can become a decisive factor.

As his thoughts flowed, Li Xiu couldn't help but have greater expectations for this armory.

If there is further progress in the flintlock gun, the shape of the war will be completely changed!

Before he left, he gave many orders. For this reason, Li Xiu specially dispatched a battalion of soldiers to take charge of the guard of the Ordnance Department.

The important weapon of the country must not be leaked!
