Chapter 197 Sending Guns to Liaodong
After hearing what Wei Chao said, Xiong Tingbi became interested.
In fact, Xiong Tingbi was also very interested in what Wei Chao was waiting for, so he walked down the city gate with Wei Chao with a smile.
Wei Chao recuperated in Liaodong for a while, and after he recovered from his illness, he understood it in his heart. His steps were very light and his face was smiling.
After this incident, he was able to return to Beijing and do what he wanted to do, instead of wasting time in Liaodong. He believed that he would have a better future.
Soon the two of them arrived at the teaching ground, and there were actually many people gathered here. Seeing Xiong Tingbi and the others, the soldiers from Liaodong scattered and made a way out.
Soon Xiong Tingbi saw a group of people who were different from those around him. All of them were wearing black clothes and the regulations were very uniform. Xiong Tingbi swore that he had never seen them before, which made him hesitate and turned to look at Wei Chao.
Wei Chao knew what Xiong Tingbi wanted to ask, so he smiled and said, "They are from the Baigong Academy, and their clothes are all like this."
Xiong Tingbi nodded and silently remembered it in his heart.
After the two came over together, a person from the Baigong Academy came to greet him with a smile.
This is a man in his 50s who looks very capable and has a shrewd and capable aura.
After seeing Xiong Tingbi and Wei Dynasty, the man smiled and bowed and said, "Zhao Yan, Xiaguan Baigong Academy, has met Eunuch Wei and Lord Xiong."
Wei Chao and Xiong Tingbi also quickly returned the greetings.
The two of them still have some understanding of the yamen of the Baigong Academy. Although they have never seen it, they have definitely heard of it. This is His Majesty's treasure yamen, and no one is allowed to touch it.
Many people say that His Majesty has produced a lot of things in it. Some say that it is for the Ming Dynasty and the people, and some say that it is for His Majesty to have fun.
This time, the people from the Baigong Academy came to Liaodong, which was quite surprising. Looking at the carriages behind them, it was obvious that they were here to deliver things. But I don’t know what they had delivered here.
"Mr. Xiong, this is what Your Majesty asked us to send." After a few words of politeness, Zhao Yan waved to the back.
Soon someone lifted a wooden box up.
Zhao Yan nodded,
Seeing this, the two people carrying the box picked up the crowbar and pried open the lid of the box.
After prying open the lid, the things inside were exposed.
A brand new mesh gun lay quietly on the velvet cloth in the wooden box.
These are the experimental products produced by Baigong Academy using new processes.
The modified version of the clamp gun is actually no longer much different from the flintlock gun that will be produced, it is just a difference in the ignition system.
The Baigong Academy produced these things just to test the improved new technology, but since it has been produced, it cannot be wasted. So Zhu Youxiao asked the Baigong Academy to get 5,000 improved versions of the coercion guns to send to Xiong Tingbi.
"Mr. Xiong, this is a new type of mesh rope gun produced by the Baigong Academy. It was named by His Majesty and is an Apocalypse One-type mesh rope gun. There are a total of five thousand here. It was sent by His Majesty to us to Lord Xiong. Lord Xiong can let you take a look."
After hearing this, Xiong Tingbi's face suddenly turned over.
In fact, the moment he saw the Apocalypse Match Rope, Xiong Tingbi had already realized the extraordinaryness of these things.
In the military and military service for many years, Xiong Tingbi has also seen many contrailers, but most of them are shoddy and few are well-made.
Many soldiers were unwilling to use a cotshot because many of them were of poor quality and were blocked as they were hit, which resulted in a direct explosion.
Such things happen from time to time, and the soldiers naturally don’t want to use them. It’s just that those who produce these things are not under the jurisdiction of local generals, and no one dares to say such things, so the situation is getting worse and worse.
Xiong Tingbi didn't expect that this time His Majesty actually asked the Baigong Academy to send five thousand Apocalypse One-style Match Ropes.
The moment he saw the Apocalypse Matchback, Xiong Tingbi realized something, which was the most exquisite Matchback he had ever seen in his life, and it can be said that there was no better than this.
Under such circumstances, how could Xiong Tingbi not be excited?
You know, there are 5,000 of them here!
At this moment, Xiong Tingbi didn't care too much, so he quickly walked up and reached out to pick up the Apocalypse Match Rope.
The heavy feel and the cold gun body all indicate that this is a killing weapon.
"Come on, install it. I want to try it!" Xiong Tingbi said excitedly.
Seeing Xiong Tingbi say this, Zhao Yan smiled and waved to the back, saying, "Get a box of bullets for Lord Xiong and let Lord Xiong try our latest bullets."
Soon someone brought a small wooden box. Zhao Yan handed the small wooden box to Xiong Tingbi, and said with a smile: "The Apocalypse One-style Match Gun uses the latest bullets. The original bullets are often not used for the Apocalypse One-style. Lord Xiong must remember."
While talking, Zhao Yan opened the box.
Inside the box, there are neat rolls of small paper tubes.
"This is a brand new paper-shell gun bullet, which is filled with gunpowder and bullets. That's it." As he said that, Zhao Yan picked up one of the paper-shell bullets, then quickly tore up one hole, and poured it directly into the barrel of the Apocalypse One-style Match Rope.
While pouring gunpowder into it, Zhao Yan explained to Xiong Tingbi: "Although the Apocalypse One-style Match Rope is a new type, it must be loaded with gunpowder and bullets from the front, so there are still problems that have been encountered in the past."
"Put gunpowder into the muzzle and then load it into the warhead. The operation is slow and the amount of medicine is uncertain each time, so the shooting effect is unstable. If the gunpowder is filled too much, it will easily explode the barrel and block the barrel. However, if the gunpowder is not enough, then the power is not enough."
"So when studying the Apocalypse One-style Match Rope, our Baike Academy thought of a way to make all the gunpowder and warheads look like this. In this case, it can be loaded easily and can be loaded in quantitative terms, and there is no situation of more or less loading."
After pouring the gunpowder into it, he compacted the bullet. Zhao Yan smiled and handed the gun to Xiong Tingbi, saying, "We have newly developed gunpowder in the gun, so it will be more powerful. Lord Xiong is more careful."
Xiong Tingbi's face was full of excitement. For him, this kind of gun is definitely a very, very useful existence.
Not only does it increase the rate of fire, but it also increases the power. The key is that it is of high quality and will not worry about the explosion when using it.
He reached out and took the grenade gun, Xiong Tingbi skillfully pressed the grenade, and then pulled the trigger.
After a rumbling sound, a ray of white smoke rose directly into the sky.
Feeling the recoil from the mesh rope gun, Xiong Tingbi said with a smile: "It's indeed a good thing. With these mesh rope guns, you must let Jiannu have a good drink!"
While talking, Xiong Tingbi touched the mezzanine, looking like he couldn't let go of it.
"By the way, Lord Zhao, I have something to ask you, how many Apocalypse Matchbacks can your Baigong Academy produce?" Xiong Tingbi asked with a casual smile.
But no one present was foolish. Everyone knew that Xiong Tingbi was definitely not asking this casually. He was asking about the news about the Baigong Academy and wanted to know how many Apocalypse Matchcord Guns there were.
As for what it will be easier after knowing, Xiong Tingbi will definitely go back and write a question book to ask the emperor for the inventory of the Apocalypse Mine.
Zhao Yan looked at Xiong Tingbi and said with a smile: "I don't care about casting in the Baigong Academy, so I don't know how many of them are. But one thing is certain, that is, the Baigong Academy should be gone."
"Why? Why is it gone?" Xiong Tingbi said excitedly: "You need to make more such a good thing."
"Because this kind of gun has been eliminated in the Centre of the Centre, this is only the first batch, and of course the last batch. His Majesty asked us to send it to Lord Xiong for emergency response."
"The Baigong Academy is already producing new types of firearms without fuses and self-generating fire. I believe that with His Majesty's emphasis on Lord Xiong, Liaodong should be able to be used soon."
"There is also the Baigong Academy, which is currently producing artillery, and all of them are newly developed. Lord Xiong should be able to see it soon."
After hearing this news, Xiong Tingbi was filled with mixed feelings and looked at several people with a serious face and said with gratitude in his tone: "Your Majesty attaches great importance to Liaodong and Xiong so much. It's so kind to be so kind! I want to go back and write a thank-you question book immediately. Everyone, Xiong has said goodbye!"
As he said that, Xiong Tingbi bowed to everyone, looking very embarrassed.
Xiong Tingbi said so, so naturally no one would stop him.
When people go back, they write a thank-you question to His Majesty, so they naturally cannot stop them. If you stop them, what will you become?
So several people hurriedly said, "Mr. Xiong, please, please!"
Xiong Tingbi was not polite, so he turned around and left.
Looking at Xiong Tingbi's back as he hurriedly left, Zhao Yan smiled and said, "Mr. Xiong has a very straightforward personality."
Wei Chao glanced at Zhao Yan and said with a funny look: "It's just that he is straightforward. I don't know how many people he offended. Besides, he doesn't know how straightforward he is. I guess he will write a letter to His Majesty this time. Thank you for your gratitude, but more of it should be to have muskets and artillery."
As he said that, Wei Chao glanced at Zhao Yan and asked with some jokes: "Tell him the news, aren't you afraid of being cleaned up when you go back?"
"Not afraid!" Zhao Yan shook his head and said naturally: "The things produced by the Baigong Academy should naturally be used on the battlefield, otherwise what's the use of production? Eunuch Wei, I want to stay in Liaodong for some time. Xiong Tingbi's writing book is probably to be taken back by Eunuch Wei."
After hearing Zhao Yan's words, the smile on Wei Chao's face instantly froze. He looked at Zhao Yan awkwardly and asked embarrassedly: "What does Lord Zhao mean?"
"Originally, Lord Xiong's thank-you question should have been brought back by me. But I want to check these mesh guns here, want to see how they are used in the army, understand how the soldiers use them, and see where there is a need for improvement. So I cannot return to Beijing for the time being."
Zhao Yan looked innocent and kind, and said naturally; "Since Eunuch Wei is going back, it is natural that this question book will be taken back by Eunuch Wei."
After a while of silence, Wei Chao looked at Zhao Yan and said hesitantly: "My body seems uncomfortable. I feel the wind and cold occasionally, I am afraid I will be unable to leave Liaodong for a while."
This operation made Zhao Yan open his mouth wide.
