The hustle and bustle in the world is all for benefit, and the hustle and bustle in the world is for benefit.

Silver is the best stimulant. When Nian Mingli heard that a musket cost two taels of silver, he couldn't hide his joy, "If so, if so, I will definitely do my best to make a musket for you!"

Wan Jun combined his own requirements and discussed it in detail with the two people to discuss and finalize the structure of the musket.

Wan Jun originally wanted to use the Sharps rifle as a prototype, but the bottom-fire technology was not up to par. Without this bullet technology, modern rifles would be just a fantasy, and Goldfinger would not be able to fire it at all.

Considering the upcoming war, the time for large-scale equipment of firearms for the Chinese army must be as early as possible.

After some haggling, combined with the level of technology in this era, we finally settled on a muzzle-loading rifle, paper shells, and flint triggers!

The loading efficiency of this kind of gun is too low. In order to deal with the Eight Banners cavalry, in detail, Wan Jun required the muzzle to have a clamping strip and be equipped with a 40 cm long bayonet, which can be stuck in the muzzle after being drawn out. This technology requires

It won’t appear until more than thirty years later!

Wan Jun also drew a pointed oval projectile with a small recess in the tail. When this type of bullet is fired, the tail will have some deformation, the sealing of the barrel will be better, and the effective range of the bullet will be longer.

After determining the caliber and length of the gun body, Nian Mingli returned to the blacksmith shop impatiently, took his apprentice, gave up all weapon making, and began to work hard to make the musket that Wan Jun mentioned!

Wan Jun watched for a while. This was a memorable moment. The first musket of the Chinese Army was slowly appearing in Nian Mingli's hands.

Quality is the fundamental guarantee. Wan Jun warned again, "Be sure not to explode the chamber!"

Under the leadership of Wang Lihui, Wan Jun visited several blacksmiths, ranging from muskets, artillery and rockets.

When it got dark, Wanjun decided to set up a new year's ceremony, Shen Yao and Ding Gui's three shops to make muskets.

Rockets are an important part of the Chinese army's combat effectiveness. Wan Jun also signed contracts with Cheng Wei and Jiang Baoming to make rockets.

The most famous artillery piece of this era is the famous red cannon in history.

However, Wan Jun was not very optimistic about the cannon that weighed thousands of gold, so he only found a shop called Wang Geng to build the cannon.

Wang Geng is a fool and has no research on cannons. He bluntly told Wan Jun that the range of cannons is not the important thing. What is important is that they are loud enough.

Wan Jun secretly thought, this guy is probably mistaking the cannon for a firecracker!

It's just that there are really few cannon makers in Wulipu. In the end, there was no choice but to sign this fool, but Wang Lihui had to watch the entire cannon-making process.

As a member of the aerospace force, Wan Jun places more emphasis on rocket launchers with strong firepower and high maneuverability.

In this era of cannons, Wanjun built some to supplement the firepower of the musketeers.

When the rocket launchers are mass-produced, Wanjun can form an independent rocket launcher battalion to provide the Chinese army with long-range and large-scale fire support when the two armies are at war!

Especially against the red cannons with unrivaled range at the same time, rocket launchers can carry out coverage bombing at a longer range.

Wan Jun and Wang Lihui finished talking about the firearms and when they left Wulipu, it was already dark.

Compared with the bright lights everywhere in modern times, Wan Jun looked up and saw an extremely clean night sky. The black night sky was extremely deep, and every star was emitting bright light.

The moonlight was like water, the evening breeze was cool, and the distance was only five miles, so Wan Jun and Wang Lihui rode towards the county seat.

As Wan Jun walked away, he said, "Li Hui, from now on you will be my chief firearms research and development officer. You will be responsible for the firearms of the entire Chinese Army. The war is coming. You must produce finished products as soon as possible. There are technical problems with firearms."

You can discuss it with the craftsmen, or you can come to me to discuss it!"

Right

While he was speaking, a sudden gust of fishy wind blew towards his face. Wan Jun only felt the war in his crotch. The horse kicked his hooves violently, and his body fell backward to the left and fell to the ground.

Wan Jun took advantage of the situation and rolled back, rolling to two feet away. Wan Jun froze his body and took advantage of the moonlight to see a large and colorful tiger rushing over from horseback.

"There's a tiger!" Wang Lihui exclaimed and fell off his horse. The frightened horse ran forward and disappeared in an instant.

"Hoo!" There was a dull animal cry, and another tiger jumped out of the jungle next to it.

The shadows of the grass behind him swayed, and two more large insects came out, eyeing them eagerly, and stepped towards them, surrounding everyone in the middle.

Four guards stood in front of Wan Jun. One of them, his teeth chattering, suppressed his fear and said, "Oh no, sir, let's hold the big insect back. Lord Wan, run back!"

Wan Jun said, "The horses have already run away. Even if we run away, how can we outrun the tiger?"

As if it understood people's words, the big tiger in front roared fiercely, kicked off its hind legs, and flew towards it in the air. The fishy smell came out of the beast's mouth, and a fishy wind suddenly appeared in front of several people.

At the critical moment, Wan Jun pulled out his self-defense pistol and shot the big tiger in the forehead. The big tiger was choked by its momentum and hit the ground, immediately losing its breath.

The other three tigers were frightened by the gunshots and froze on the spot. Seeing the leading tiger fall to the ground and expired, they all roared and rushed toward the crowd.

"Bang bang bang" Wan Jun fired three shots in a row, and the two tigers immediately fell to the ground dead.

Because the night was too dark and the time was too short, the tiger was only hit in the body and struggled on the ground, screaming in agony and not dying for a while.

Several guards reacted, rushed forward with weapons, and hacked the wounded tiger to death with several knives.

Everyone was shocked and quickly gathered the few remaining horses and returned to Wulipu.

Seeing the fire in Wulipu from a distance, a few people just felt like they were on a journey through hell. At this moment, they felt like they were back in the human world.

Wan Jun was shocked that there were tigers around the county town. He sighed secretly. After using these four self-defense bullets, there was only one left. If he encounters danger in the future, he might not have a pistol to use!

A few people rested one night at the Wulipu Huaxia Army Camp and went back to the city at dawn the next day.

Passing by the place last night, the carcasses of four colorful tigers were still lying on the ground. They looked more realistic during the day. They were a little different from what Wan Jun saw in the zoo in the past. These tigers were as big as a cow and looked even more ferocious and terrifying.

.

Several horses looked very uneasy when they saw the tiger carcass. Wan Jun and others used horses to drag the tiger carcasses back to the county. When they arrived outside the east gate, the Chinese soldiers and people who were organizing farming all around stopped to look. In the silence, several people dragged the tiger carcasses back to the county town.

Following the four tiger corpses into the city, people in the city also came to watch.

Four tiger carcasses were thrown on the ground in front of the City God's Temple. Wan Jun asked someone to hang up the four characters "eliminating harm for the people." The people around him gathered around and applauded. Many people curiously looked at and touched the tiger carcasses. "Really?"

It’s strange that this tiger is so big and so ferocious that he killed four of them at once, what an incredible hero he must be!”

"Okay, once the big tiger is eliminated, it will feel safer to go out to work in the city."

When he returned to the county government office, Brother Liu San was waiting in front of the hall. It seemed that Xie Xiaoni had gone back to tell him.

Seeing Wan Jun, Liu Sange came forward and said, "Sir, I heard your summons, and I have been waiting here early this morning."

Wan Jun looked at Brother Liu San, nodded, and felt a little unbearable, "Have you really thought about it? You and Xie Xiaoni have just gotten married. What will she do if you leave?"

Liu Sange said eagerly, "A real man has a family and a career, and now I have grown up."

When you have a family and you want to build a career for your lord, how can you be held back by a woman?"

After hearing this, Wan Jun sighed, "I originally intended for you and your wife to stay together for a while longer. Since you have already decided, fine! I have an important thing for you to handle."

After hearing this, Liu Sange said excitedly, "Thank you, sir, for taking this seriously."

Wan Jun said, "Nowadays, droughts and floods are out of order. Summer comes early this year. I am afraid that there will be another severe drought, and the people are afraid that they will have to change their crops to eat. I heard that there are several kinds of grains, and the yield per mu is

Several times the amount of rice and wheat. If you can bring back the seeds of these crops, you can save millions of people. Are you willing to go?"

Brother Liu Sange said without thinking, "Sir, I am willing to go, so that I can share your worries, and I will not hesitate to die!"

Wan Jun said, "That's very good. You have been to Huguang and Fujian and Guangdong. There is a thing called corn or corn. I will draw it for you. It looks like an arm, and the grains of rice are golden. According to time, it is probably found in Huguang area. In addition,

There is something called a sweet potato or sweet potato, sweet potato, etc., which is as big as a baby's head, with red skin and sweet taste. There is also something called a potato, which looks like a human fist. If you bring these three kinds back, it will be a great achievement!"

Liu Sange straightened up after hearing this, gave a military salute and said, "Young man, even if your brain is shattered, you still have to complete the mission!"

Wan Jun patted Brother Liu San on the shoulder and said, "You must come back well. Your daughter-in-law Xie Xiaoni is still waiting for your safe return. When you come back, I will allow you to rejoin the Chinese Army!"

Liu Sange quit the county government and followed Wan Jun's instructions to find his subordinate platoon leader and captain who were punished by Wan Jun together with him.

The three of them were going to complete this task together. With their luggage ready, Liu Sange took the two of them and set off.

"Your Excellency said, we will rejoin the Chinese Army when we come back!"

The three of them walked towards the east gate with their luggage, and saw Xie Xiaoni waiting on the roadside from a distance, holding a small package in her hand.

Brother Liu San suddenly felt guilty. Not long after his wedding, he was about to go thousands of miles away. The journey was difficult and dangerous, and he didn't know if he could come back alive. Xie Xiaoni was a hard-working person. Before the marriage, he said that he would not let her suffer any more.

.

Holding back his sadness, Brother Liu put a smile on his face, stepped forward to hold Xie Xiaoni's hand, and said, "Xiao Ni, sir, you asked me to go away to do some important things, and when I come back, I will rejoin the army for us!"

"

Xie Xiaoni was worried, but she didn't want Brother Liu San to worry, so she smiled and said, "Congratulations, brother, feel free to go and work for the adults. I'll wait for you to come back!"

Brother Liu San wanted to comfort this poor woman, but didn't know what to say. He looked at Xie Xiaoni, was stunned for a while, nodded and said, "Wait for me!"

After speaking, Liu Sange turned around and left. The three of them didn't look back and walked straight into the doorway.

Behind her, Xie Xiaoni looked at Brother Liu San's back and suddenly shouted, "Brother Liu, I'm waiting for you! No matter how long it takes, I will be here waiting for you."

Xie Xiaoni watched the three people exit the east gate and could no longer see them. She stared blankly for a while, the smile on her face froze, and tears finally rolled down her face.

Xie Xiaoni's heart was filled with sadness, with tears hanging down her cheeks. She covered her mouth and walked back. Suddenly she saw a hungry man wearing tattered clothes looking at her. When his eyes met hers, he hurriedly turned his head away.

Xie Xiaoni ignored him and walked back with her head lowered. After walking a few steps, she suddenly remembered that the person seemed familiar. She suddenly thought of a person and turned around quickly to see that person was passing through the east gate among a group of hungry people.

Xie Xiaoni ran over in a hurry, shouting as she ran, "Stop them quickly, don't let them escape!"

After hearing this, the Chinese soldiers guarding the gate immediately stopped letting him go!
