Chapter 140 Shooter
It is easy to build a gun. As long as you understand how to build it and ensure the quality of raw materials, all blacksmiths in the village can make it, it is nothing more than working hours.
However, if Beiyang and Xuanfu want to use the Nanyang Military Weapon Bureau method, it will take a long time to fix this process.
But they also have advantages. There are a large number of military craftsmen in the border areas of Xuanfu that can be used as the origin of outsourcing parts; the Beiyang is facing the canal, and there are a wider range of options for outsourcing parts.
In the future, the Beiyang Military Intelligence Bureau's manufacturing potential in bird guns will be higher than that of the Nanyang Military Intelligence Bureau.
The entire Ming Dynasty's weapon manufacturing potential has not yet been developed, and the military weapons bureaus of various guards in the world are useless. If these military craftsmen can rejuvenate like the Nanyang Military Weapon Bureau, the manufacturing capabilities of the Ming Dynasty's military weapons can make a big move.
However, Chen Mu really has no ability to mobilize this power in full. His current ability can only influence the local area through the like-minded commander of the commander-in-chief of the Shandong Dushi, for example, Wei Rushu, the commander of the enterprising Shandong Dushi.
There were all the guards who were trained to form a new military camp and trained in Dengzhou Guards. The work was in full swing, and the military weapon bureau was also being rectified. However, Wei Rushu's prestige was limited, and the craftsmen were not as skilled as Chen Mu. The military weapon output of Dengzhou Guards' Military Weapon Bureau was not even enough to supply Shandong New Army.
He had only mobilized troops to form a new guard army, called the Laideng New Army camp, and half of the guns, cannons, armor and equipment needed were exchanged from Beiyang.
However, he was very smart. Unlike the Guangdong guards who directly exchanged old guns or iron ore for purchases. The iron ore was made into combined iron ingots and sent to Beiyang for purchase prices. He also sent military craftsmen to study at the Beiyang Military Weapon Bureau.
Now that the old muskets and iron ingots are able to make their own flintlock bird guns.
Chen Mu once sent someone to take two samples from there, and some commander in charge looked at the acceptance, and the quality was pretty good.
If Wei Rushu can do these two things well, the commander of Shandong will definitely be his in the future.
As the Oriental Fleet set sail, the inner court and the Beiyang became more and more frequent. At first, Chen Ju, the Imperial Horse Supervisor, also sent people to set up a general worship platform at the entrance of the sea, right next to the wooden tracks of the carriage leading to the Beiyang Military Mansion at the port customs.
By late September, Feng Bao brought the eunuchs to Beiyang.
Feng Baolai was also interesting. He started to take a boat all the way, but when he arrived in Beiyang, he didn't ask anyone to inform him. The boat stopped in Tianjin Guard for two days and sent someone to get a sword from the military battle, which made people inform the Beiyang Military Mansion.
According to him, the military camp is powerful and he must also pay attention to etiquette.
"The court has been prepared. In five days, the Three Thousand Jinyi Association will enter Beiyang one after another. All the important roads along the way will be set up. The navy in Shandong has also blocked the sea area and is not allowed to travel between merchants, civilians and ships."
Feng Bao was carrying a sword and was quite like that. He jumped to the topic of Beiyang and said, "You can hear the roar of cannons in the military palace. Chen Shuai's Beiyang Cannon Mansion is well-known."
Beiyang Cannon Mansion?
Seeing Chen Mu's face showing confusion, Feng Bao smiled and said, "The officials from the inner and outer courts have never been to Beiyang in person, but they have heard of the reputation of Beiyang. The palace ladies were disgusted, so the title of the Beiyang Cannon Mansion was heard. Let's go and have a look?"
Feng Bao’s “we” does not mean us. This word was both a self-proclaimer in the Ming Dynasty and a military term in Shanxi. It means the army and horses of the main unit. Therefore, eunuchs who lack masculinity were used to claim themselves.
What is even stronger is Chen Fo’s ‘manly’, masculinity veers two.
When Chen Mu saw Feng Bao want to see infantry training, he naturally reached out to guide the way and said, "This is the place for infantry training. The outer circle is used to marching with loads, put equipment outside the circle to practice qi strength, and the inner part is to practice sergeant skills, such as practicing boxing techniques and footwork, gun skills and spears and guns, target shooting practice precision and orders, and digging trenches and laying wooden walls and other infantry training."
Feng Baozheng walked excitedly towards the infantry schoolyard, and said in surprise when he heard this: "Digging a trenches still requires practice?"
"The Supervisor didn't know that there were two types of trenches, infantry trenches and anti-surge trenches. The trenches were divided into three levels according to the depth: lying trenches, kneeling trenches and standing trenches, which correspond to different battle situations. The most common situation is digging foxholes, which is this."
Chen Mu pointed to the flag army that was lying in the shallow pit in the infantry schoolyard and was confused about the cover of the front, and said to Feng Bao: "Kill the generals, send orders, and scouts will always leave the army at the forefront of the battlefield. They need to hide their bodies and protect the flag army. Normal combat can also protect the flag army."
He said it was general, but in fact, most of the battles were not needed, and it was enough to just dig anti-surge trenches.
Just as he was talking, the flag army holding the killing gun opened fire at the wooden target two hundred steps away. Chen Mu picked up the telescope and took a look. He did not hit the wooden target, but the flag army sniper had very good tactical movements. He crawled back and took a step back and quickly cleared the gun chamber under the protection of the bunker, preparing to reload again.
Feng Bao stomped his feet secretly and gave himself a tantrum without saying a word.
Before I came, I warned myself that there are many new things in the Beiyang Military Mansion and many things I don’t understand. Don’t ask randomly! Why can’t I control my mouth?
You're so timid!
Although he still wanted to ask what the structure of the long gun with the divine eyepiece was, he held back, held his face and clapped his hands gently with his hands calmly, looking around.
"That's great! It's great! It's really a blessing for the national dynasty with such a good general in Shuai Chen."
Seeing the killing gun fire for the second time, Feng Daban raised his eyes and glanced softly, took the telescope from his personal eunuch and looked at it. He said strangely: "I really hit it!"
Not to mention Feng Bao's surprise, even Chen Mu couldn't believe that two hundred steps and three hundred meters away. Even if the killer drilled out four threaded rifles, his bullets were still round lead balls, and the rifle played a not so obvious role.
Round bullets, and it turns with rifle or not.
Snipers who kill the general gun are generally skilled in shooting and killing at a long range. Before the practice summarizes an effective sniper theory, Chen Mu did not intend to let the Military Equipment Bureau produce long pointed bullets with a slug-shaped end. The rifle can only increase the stability of the lead ball.
"That was a very talented gunman. The scope of the gun solved the problem of the shooter's lack of sight, but the accuracy of the gun was limited after all, and the aiming caliper on the gun was only third-level, and the farthest was only one hundred and fifty steps."
In an era when the telescope was not yet used in the world outside the Ming Dynasty, as long as people a hundred and fifty steps were disguised, they would really not be able to see you if they didn't want you to see it.
What's more, shooting at a distance of more than a hundred steps is actually not much related to the quality of the gun itself. It would be nice to have a simple human eye that can aim for eighty steps.
A hundred steps away, shooting hits have nothing to do with luck, even the best gun.
Chen Mu tried it himself. He used a flintlock gun to fire a wooden target a hundred and fifty steps away, and had a record of failing to shoot ten times in a row.
My body shook and my hands trembled. I even needed to use more power to write a horizontal and vertical stroke when writing a brush. I would still be empty when I aimed at the caliper and fired the gun.
"In actual combat, killing the generals and gunners in a group, three guns and one shooter, and two loaders, shoot the enemy generals in the fastest and most accurate way, and then shooters must retreat regardless of whether they kill or not. A shooter like him will shine in Yameli."
Feng Bao turned his head: "When will the sail set and when will the big reading be made?"
