Codex of the Old Gods: I Have a World

Chapter 131 Replenishing the Arsenal

Time flies so fast, even the Japanese and Russian naval battles at Tsushima have decided the winner.

At this point, although the Russo-Japanese War has not been officially declared over, the results have already come out.

Russia was completely defeated.

Zhao Chuanxin had a sense of urgency about this.

This time he sent Liu Baobao to Tianjin to pick up the second batch of weapons and ammunition.

Liu Guoguo left with 500,000 silver dollars.

Spread money along the way.

He was different from Zhao Chuanxin. He would fight anyone who wanted Zhao Chuanxin's money, unless he was willing to pay for it himself.

Liu Guobao took money along the way to clear the way, spending a sum of money in Liaodi first, and asked Du Lisan to connect with the upper-level generals of Shanhaiguan, open up relationships, and directly get rid of 20,000 silver dollars.

Find a foreign comprador and buy weapons without any counter-offer.

A "filial son" comes from a lot of money. Regardless of whether he is an official or a foreigner, he is regarded as his father.

It didn't take a month for Liu Baogui to come back with weapons and ammunition.

Although he lost a lot of weight and became a lot darker, Liu Guigui was in high spirits.

According to his words: "Experiencing being a master!"

The insurance team came and looked at the boxes of goods in the arsenal.

200 horses and 20 rounds of matching bullets.

200 Lee-Enfield magazine-type short rifles, equipped with 20 rounds of ammunition.

96 Mauser C200 pistols with 20 rounds of ammunition.

30 Madsen machine guns and some ammunition.

20 German Maxim machine guns and some ammunition.

A bunch of guns made everyone stunned.

Shuangxi rushed to Maxim's side, patted the barrel of the gun and said, "This gun is so domineering that I can't even move it. It must be very powerful."

Liu Guogui said: "This is the gun that is required during the salary roll call. You can't guess how much it costs. A heavy machine gun like this costs more than 300 pounds, and the combined silver dollar is almost 4000 yuan."

Everyone gasped.

A gun costs 4000 yuan?

Crazy?

Liu Guogui smiled mysteriously: "I haven't finished yet. This gun has a watch to know how long it lasts every minute, right? It can fire up to 600 rounds of bullets in one minute. In other words, it will shoot out 50 pieces of ocean in one minute."

hiss……

Shuangxi pinched his fingers and calculated: "Then if we fight for an hour, doesn't it cost us the cost of destroying a heavy machine gun?"

Zhao Chuanxin laughed: "Don't be ridiculous. After firing for an hour, the barrel of the gun was scrapped. And the theoretical firing rate of 600 rounds per minute does not mean that it will definitely be fired. But no matter what, this is a battlefield harvester. That’s for sure.”

Everyone felt their scalps go numb when they looked at the long 250 metal bullet chain.

If our troops encounter this thing on the battlefield, I am afraid that a large number of them will be killed in one sweep.

Gao Li picked up the Mauser pistol and asked: "Is this a pistol? Is it so big?"

Zhao Chuanxin explained: "Mauser C96, we generally call it a box gun. It has ten rounds of ammunition, a fast rate of fire, and great power, but its shortcomings are obvious. The recoil of shooting will cause the barrel to float upward, and the bullet will float. Awesome. Installing a wooden stock can overcome this shortcoming, but it has no advantage over the range of a rifle. If you fire at a short distance, there is no accuracy. You can try it when the time comes, but I don't recommend it."

The "mirror box" at the moment is not fully automatic and cannot be used as a submachine gun.

The reason why he bought it was that Zhao Chuanxian wanted to give it to some heroes who sacrificed their lives and blood for this nation in the future.

The second fat man picked up the Lee Enfield magazine-style short rifle and took aim: "Aren't we in trouble? There are thirteen ringers, old and young, in the warehouse."

Zhao Chuanxin also picked up one and pulled the bolt with a click: "Look, this thing loads and reloads faster. It can load ten bullets at a time. The firepower output is fierce. The magazine can be detached, but it is easy to break. But it doesn’t matter. You don’t dismantle it when you practice shooting, but you can dismantle it casually when fighting. You can do it as quickly as you want. You can use this gun instead in the future.”

In the end, it was Liu Guoguo who took off his hat and scratched his head: "I understand if you ask me to buy another gun. Why should I buy this Madsen machine gun?"

After a run outside, I couldn’t even speak “I” anymore.

In fact, many people have already imitated Zhao Chuanxin and started to change their opinions.

It's just a habit.

The three eastern provinces in future generations will not be like me either.

Zhao Chuanxin easily picked up the 40 kilograms loaded with a 10-round magazine and shook it in his hands, which was just right for his strength. Caressing the blued gun body like a baby, he said: "This already belongs to the category of light machine guns. If you carry a heavy machine gun, it will feel very heavy, but this one can barely be used for shoulder shooting. You can shoot 40 rounds of bullets by holding the trigger. Think about it, if you use this thing to hit Little Japan, will it be able to wipe out a whole country?"

As soon as he was asked to explain, everyone looked at the Madsen machine gun with eager eyes.

Shuangxi was the first to pick one up: "Good guy, this is not light, isn't it? On the battlefield, carrying such a big piece of iron, I'm afraid you won't be able to run, right?"

He put it on his shoulder and tried it, and it turned out to be very reluctant.

The second fat man had a lot of strength, so he tried it and thought it was okay.

Zhao Chuanxin opened the stand, and he didn't mind the dirt on the ground, so he lay down directly: "Look, doesn't this have a stand? This is for positional warfare. We don't ride on horseback, shoot and run away. Put it on the ground, shoot, and sweep away It’s over!”

"This is awesome. No one, not the Russians, not the Japanese, not even the soldiers of the Qing court, can beat us!"

"I think we should look for other people nearby..."

"I'm afraid it won't work nearby. How about we go to Harbin to try our luck?"

Zhao Chuanxin was speechless: "Okay, okay, as long as they are not vicious bandits, we have to be merciful and merciful. If they don't harm the people, let them go. Japan has won the Russo-Japanese War, and the next step is to Negotiate with the Russians, and then carve up the Northeast. After that, haha, little Japan will come, and by then you won’t be able to fight even if you don’t want to."

"Don't be afraid, just do it!"

"How many balls does Little Japan have?"

"Kill these bastards to death!"

Zhao Chuanxin asked them to take their guns to the shooting range to practice and get used to it.

He put some of the guns and ammunition directly into the secret pendant in case of emergency.

After leaving the arsenal, Zhao Chuanxin suddenly turned around and asked Li Guangzong who was waiting outside: "What happened to the helmet made by Blacksmith Guo?"

Li Guangzong seems to be able to remember everything: "Still working hard, progress is very slow."

"How about the hooded mask lined with leather armor that I want? How is it being made by my sister-in-law's tailor shop?"

"This will be finished soon."

Liu Guoguo waited for him to finish speaking and stepped forward: "This trip may have cost a bit too much, and the bulk of it was arms. There were also some bribes to local officials of the Qing court along the way for convenience, and as you said, we invited Ma Kuaiban to a banquet in Tianjin City. . He also gave Zhang Zhankui some money and asked him to climb up the ladder. There was not much left of half a million..."

"It doesn't matter, just check the accounts with Guangzong and keep them in mind. The province should be saved."

He planted a nail in Tianjin City, which was Zhang Zhankui.

It is impossible to have a successful official career just by relying on your martial arts reputation.

It can be foreseen that without Zhao Chuanxin's intervention, the number of leaders in his Ma Kuai class will basically be the upper limit in the next few years.

He must be given a push, as he will still be useful in the future.
