I am rich in martial arts, but choose culture to win

Before he could figure out what was going on, Zhu Fugui had already picked up the target paper.

After a few clicks, Zhao Aqian took out the black and white camera and quickly took another set of photos.

"On June 237, 6, the reign of Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, His Majesty the Emperor, who managed everything every day, tested a new gun at the third shooting range."

"His Majesty the Emperor, who came from a family background, is a natural marksman. As early as a child, he shot down two swallows with a slingshot at once."

"This time, His Majesty the Emperor tested the Henry 1860 rifle, which will soon be installed in the First Division of our Royal Army. In this test, His Majesty the Emperor achieved a good score of 99..."

……

It's not that Zhu Fugui doesn't want to rely on his strength to hit a high number of rings, but even in later generations, the hit rate of standing shooting is very low.

During military training, Zhu Fugui used to shoot the Bayi-style rifle.

However, there was an instructor on the sidelines to guide him, and he was still shooting in a prone position.

Just like in games such as CS and Chicken Eats, the accuracy of shooting in the prone position is higher than that in the squatting position, and the shooting position in the squatting position is higher than that in the standing position.

But obviously, only the heroic posture of His Majesty standing and shooting a gun is suitable for the cover of the first issue of "Da Ming Times".

Back then, Zhu Fugui had some unrealistic fantasies when he got the top ten results in the class in prone shooting.

Thinking of standing up and shooting a gun, how can I hit fifty or sixty rings.

Unexpectedly, the recoil of this old-fashioned rifle is not small, Zhu Fugui almost didn't even hold the gun, and almost hit the sky.

Fortunately, in the end, these bullets miraculously hit the target paper.

This, maybe it's the Spear Shaking Technique!

Zhu Fugui was very satisfied with this.

"Sangui, I am very satisfied with the batch of rifles you brought, and the price will not let you suffer." Zhu Fugui patted Donald on the shoulder with a smile.

This made the latter breathe a sigh of relief.

Donald is not worried that Zhu Fugui has no money.

Zhu Fugui had a little understanding of the clothing trade with the British Donald as an agent.

A total of 4.5 sets of high-quality summer military uniforms are priced at only $[-] each, and a high-quality military bag is also included.

This was an offer that the British could not refuse, and Zhu Fugui easily won the order.

While inexpensive per unit, it's also big business at $9.

Donald didn't know how much Zhu Fugui could earn.

In particular, the value of this new type of "silk" called Dacron is even more immeasurable.

However, according to the profit margin of silk, Donald still boldly estimated that the boss Zhu earned at least 2 US dollars from this order.

After thinking about it, Donald decided to tell the truth: "Your Majesty, if you can wait a little longer, in the fall, I should be able to get a batch of revolver rifles and trapdoor Springfield rifles. It's too much of a waste of bullets, and the power..."

"No, no, dear Comrade Sangui, I like this rifle very much, this is it." Zhu Fugui refused.

Just kidding, the Henry 1860 is a serious quick-loading rifle, designed and invented by New York inventor Walter Hunter in 1848.

The front of the tubular magazine can be rotated towards the front of the rifle as long as the gun body is turned over and the exposed spring plate is pushed forward by 2mm.

Counting a bullet loaded in advance, the Henry 1860 can load up to 16 bullets at a time.

It can be said that this fast loading method is not available in other similar firearms.

Especially the fancy revolver.

Although Zhu Fugui didn't know the reason why this enlarged version of the revolver disappeared quickly after a short-lived appearance in the Civil War.

But as a "prophet", since he knew that it was destined to be eliminated quickly and that it had never become a mainstream weapon, Zhu Fugui would definitely not consider equipping it.

The trapdoor Springfield rifle has been tried and tested and is now one of the main guns of the Northern Army.

It uses a 32.4 gram pellet.

The projectile weight of Henry 1860 is only 13 grams.

This makes today's military strategists generally question the actual combat power of Henry 1860.

The current U.S. empire is only the fourth economic power in the world, and it has not widened the essential gap with Tsarist Russia, so it is not as rich and powerful as later generations, and the issue of saving rifle bullets also needs to be considered.

The Springfield rifle was more powerful, could only be loaded one round at a time, and couldn't keep firing for long periods of time.

It is equivalent to saying that the Springfield rifle is Jinx's cannon mode, with a slow attack speed but powerful power, and the Henry 1860 is Jinx's machine gun mode, with a fast attack speed but low power.

So in a sense it seems wiser to choose the Springfield rifle.

Henry 1860 has not been valued by the US Army since its birth, which is why Zhu Fugui can still easily buy it today when the war is in full swing.

However, in order to worry about being deceived by the cunning Jews, Zhu Fugui had already done his homework.

When seeing these Henry 1860s, Zhu Fugui decided to stud.

There is no other reason. The performance of this rifle in the history of war is too impressive.

In 1876, in the "Battle of Little Bighorn", Sitting Bull, the last leader of the Sioux Alliance, commanded 2000 men, armed with this kind of quick-fire rifle that the government army dismissed, and wiped out a 300-man cavalry regiment of the US Army in one fell swoop.

You know, this cavalry regiment is even equipped with a Gatling machine gun, and the rifle used is Springfield!

Although there are disadvantages in numbers, the biggest defeat of whites against Indians in history just illustrates the great power of Henry 1860, a dusty quick-fire rifle.

Zhu Fugui, who knew this period of history, would have other ideas, so he waved his hand and asked Ma Er of the Ministry of Accounts to calculate the transaction.

400 Henry 1860s, $20 each, $[-] including bullets.

After thinking for a while, Zhu Fugui asked again: "Sangui, I heard that this kind of rifle is not popular because of the small caliber of the bullet, and the federal government sells it to farmers and Indians. You see, we can Can’t we get a production line for this kind of small bullet, and then do the business of western immigrants?”

Chapter 069 The Piggy Ship Arrives

Zhu Fugui's desire to build a bullet production line is not wishful thinking.

After all, the production process of bullets in this era is not very complicated.

What Zhu Fugui wants to make is not the kind of tall and modern rifle bullets that even India, a world-class power in the 21st century, cannot make.

What was to be made was nothing more than bullets for the renju gun of the nineteenth century.

This kind of bullet can even be produced in workshops in tribes in Syria, Pakistan and other countries.

In fact, in this era, as long as you have money, you can buy arms, and there is basically no military purchase restriction.

The Qing government was not only able to order the 7000-ton first-class ironclad ships Dingyuan and Zhenyuan, and the 2440-ton cruiser Jiyuan.

In 1894 before Sino-Japanese War alone, Li Hongzhang bought 7000 Chickas, 12000 Mausers, 8 Lianju cannons, 10000 small-caliber Mauser pentatones in four batches, and 1000 million bullets.There are 56 cannons with more than 520 million bullets of various sizes.

In December, the report entrusted Xu Jingcheng to purchase 12 Mauser guns, 10000 million bullets, 412 large and small caliber fast guns, and 300 bullets; 10 Hatchkiss six-shot guns, 3000 million bullets, and 200 Martini guns , several small fast guns.Later, he purchased 10000 Austrian small-caliber guns and 8000 million bullets.100 German Mausers and 5000 million bullets.

There are a total of 5000 million bullets!

Don't say that the 38th Army of the Volunteer Army wiped out a U.S. military every 38 bullets, that is, the U.S. military took money improperly on the Vietnam battlefield, and [-] bullets wiped out a Viet Cong.

Then 5000 million bullets should also kill 5000 Japanese soldiers.

As a result, only a thousand Japanese were killed.

There are such precedents in the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, but in fact Zhu Fugui is not too worried about the issue of bullets.

Even if the Americans don't sell it, can the British and the French not sell it?

However, Zhu Fugui, who has seen a certain Wei's situation, still feels that from the very beginning, he should focus on the worst form just like Boss Ren, and make a strategic reserve for spare tires.

So Zhu Fugui still proposed to build a bullet production line.

The output does not have to be large, and the production level does not have to be high, but at least you have to have it.

The reasons given by Zhu Fugui are not far-fetched.

As a gangster, it is reasonable to do some arms business, right?

Large-caliber rifle bullets may be taboo, but it’s okay to use small bullets, right?

And as Zhu Fugui said, with the announcement of the Homestead Act, the population of the western United States is increasing rapidly.

Whether it is the so-called "new immigrants" or the Indians who are trying to protect their homeland, their demand for guns will only increase.

Of course, it is very difficult for arms dealers to sell bullet production lines.

But we can talk about it!

There is no business in this world that cannot be discussed.

Understanding what the boss meant, Donald said he could try it.

After all, the war in the east is now fierce, and the arms dealers hope to start a new production line as soon as possible.

It is also a profitable business for them to replace the unprofitable 13-gram projectile production line with banknotes, and then invest in the expansion of the production capacity of 32.4-gram projectiles.

The Jews are so bad and so bad, as long as they have enough money, they dare to buy anything, which Zhu Fugui likes very much.

After firing the gun, Zhu Fugui organized another open-air barbecue to reward Fatty Tang who worked so hard with the gun.

But before the meat was cooked, a fast horse came hurrying.

……

With a violent shaking, Mo Bai woke up from extreme weakness.

After a brief hesitation, he remembered that he was on the steam carrier Union.

This ship belongs to Qibao Foreign Trade Co., Ltd., and it is a ship selling piglets.

Piggy, this word was also learned by Mo Bai later.

His father died of illness, and his mother took care of the four siblings.

Mo Bai is the eldest son.

The eldest son should have the responsibility of the eldest son.

In order to improve the family's income and at least save a bite of food for his mother and siblings, Mo Bai sneaked into the city to find a job as a buddy.

There, he heard from Ren Yazi that Citigroup had discovered a large gold mine, and there was endless gold to be dug there. As long as you worked hard and worked hard, you could dig gold there for three years, and you would be able to bring endless money Return home with honor.

At that time, not only will you be able to honor your ancestors, but you will also be able to marry a wife and have children, and live the life of a landlord.

Work hard?

Mo Bai is not afraid of such things.

His strength is already somewhat stronger than that of his peers, and he has never had a cold since he was a child.

The only trouble is that Mo Bai also eats a lot.

That's why he secretly left home to save some food for the family.

Mo Bai, who has never seen anything in the world, still thinks that he has met a nobleman.

A fortune teller said when he was a child that he would meet a lucky man when he was 16 years old.

Don't you meet now?

Go to Citigroup to dig for gold!

Mo Bai pressed his own handprint in a daze.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but when he made his fingerprints, Mo Bai vaguely felt that the person in front of him was sneering.

And the way he looks at himself is similar to looking at a dead person.
