Rebirth in America: Great Slave Owner

Chapter 76: Gatling of the Civil War

"Nie, don't be lazy!" Namdi, who was carrying the boxes, was kicked and scolded by the soldiers of the Northern Army in charge of overseeing the work because he stopped for a while to catch his breath and wipe off his sweat.

In desperation, Namdi had to continue moving the box and whispered: "I was bullied when the Yangji guy didn't come, and now that the Yangji guy is here, I'm still being bullied, so the Yangji guy is not here for nothing. What!"

This Namdi was the former boxer in Big Fat Carter's Manor. Since he lost to Carter's nemesis in that boxing match, he was not only cleaned up by Carter, but also cancelled his treatment as a boxer and was directly demoted to The black slave who did the hardest and most tiring work.

I originally thought that life would be better after the North Army came over. After all, I heard that the North Army claimed to liberate the black slaves, but I didn't expect that they would be arrested to work, and even the food was not as good as when they were black slaves.

After finally finishing his work, he didn't even give him food. Namdi stared blankly and walked back to the wooden hut where he lived when he was a slave.

As soon as I lay down, I heard someone tease: "Huh? Isn't this our boxing champion Namdi? Why are you back?"

Namdi opened his eyes and saw that it was his comrade Holt, who was also a black slave before, so he asked back: "Then why are you back? Didn't you say you are free now!"

Holt smiled bitterly and said, "Where can I go if I don't come back? I'm free now, but there's no place to eat or sleep. What's the use of being free!"

Namdi nodded and said in agreement: "Yes! Although I used to work very tired every day, I could eat enough and sleep well. Now, although Yankee came over and arrested Fatty Carter, he said that we were liberated. I’m free, I can choose what job I want to do, but where is there a job in New Orleans now? Even if I go to work for the Union Army, I don’t have enough food to eat. How can people live? It’s not as good as before. What about cotton! Now, it seems that they are still the black slaves of Mr. Tangning's family. Not only is Mr. Tangning always nice to them, but he even sent them all to Brazil before the war, so they don't have to be as miserable as we are now!"

"Not only Mr. Tangning, but also Mr. Clark and Mrs. Murphy's black slaves were sent to Brazil before the war!" Speaking of which, Holt seemed to suddenly think of something, and added, "That's right, Nathan. Mody, guess who I saw on the street just now?"

"Who?" Namdi asked casually. Remember s://vip in a second

"Mira!" Holt replied word by word.

Hearing the name of "Mira", Namdi was immediately excited, because the reward Carter gave him before the start of the boxing match was to give Mira to him if he won, but unfortunately he didn't succeed and waited until he became a black Slave soon learned that Mila had a child with a black slave breeder at Mrs. Murphy's estate, and then there was no news of her.

So he quickly asked, "Where is Mila now?"

Holt glanced left and right, then whispered a few words in Namdi's ear, and then saw Namdi, who was still too tired, suddenly jumped up and said angrily: "Holt, you Is it true?"

"Of course it's true, why am I lying to you?" Holt replied with a shrug.

Then he looked at Namdi, whose eyes were almost spitting fire, and asked, "Namdi, what are you doing?"

"Don't worry about that!" After saying that, he strode out.

Meanwhile, Confederate Lieutenant Winer reported to Robert Leehui: "General, Mr. Gatling and the machine gun he invented have been brought back by us!"

"How's the effect?" Robert Lee asked without looking up.

"Very shocking!" Vernell replied almost word by word.

Hearing Vernell's words, Robert Lee became interested, stood up and said, "Go, take me to see it!"

When he came to the training ground, Vinnell introduced a middle-aged man in a suit and top hat to Robert Lee: "General, this is Mr. Richard-Jordan-Gatlin!"

Then he pointed to the barrel of a small cannon on a large wheel frame and introduced: "This is the machine gun invented by Mr. Gatling!"

"This, this is a gun? Why do I look like a cannon?" Robert Lee said with a smile.

Gatling explained on the side: "General, because this machine gun is too heavy, if it is not placed on this kind of car, it is difficult to move!"

"Let me see the effect first!" Robert Lee said calmly.

Under Winell's order, four soldiers immediately ran over and started to operate. One was in charge of shooting, and the other was in charge of turning the crank handle to make the barrel turn. Immediately, he saw a row of bullets swept past, and almost all the targets in front were swept away. Cut off.

Seeing this scene, Robert Lee couldn't help taking a deep breath and exclaimed, "It's so powerful! You have to shoot a hundred bullets in one minute, right?"

"220 rounds per minute to be precise, in order to maintain high-speed continuous fire, an independent steel chamber (the chamber is separated from the barrel) is used, and its tail is closed and equipped with a percussion cap. The barrels evenly arranged around the circumference are driven to rotate, and the chambers filled with ammunition enter the locking groove behind each barrel from the feed hopper. When the barrels rotate to a certain position, the firing pin fires the ammunition. When the barrel rotates to another position, the fired chamber exits the machine gun. The chamber can be reused, and the barrel rotates once to complete the loading, firing and ejection of 6 rounds of ammunition.

Also to overcome the problem of how to make the separate chambers coaxial with the barrel, I used a tapered chamber with a larger diameter at the rear of the chamber to make it easier for the projectile to enter the barrel. ' Gatling explained.

Then he said: "If you can use independent metal shells, then the rate of fire will be further accelerated!"

After listening, Robert Lee nodded in approval and said, "Mr. Gatling, your invention is very remarkable. It will become the ace weapon for close support in infantry attacks. It seems that this little guy Tony didn't lie to me!"

That's right, when he read this description in Downing's letter, Robert Lee initially thought he was joking, but after the success of penicillin and winning over Indian tribes, Robert Lee wanted to give it a try, so he sent Lieutenant Vernell. Going out to look for Gatlin, I did not expect to give him another surprise!

Then he sighed and said, "It's a pity that Tony's letter doesn't have any more proposals, and I don't know where this little guy has gone now, otherwise we should find him and see if he has any good ideas!"

PS: After "Cao Cao Crosses Wu Dalang", there is actually another book "Lu Bu Crosses Ximen Qing", or should I write a book "XX Crossing Pan Jinlian" to help the fun?

"Brother Shen!"

"Um!"

Shen Changqing was walking on the road, and when he met someone he knew, he would say hello or nod to each other.

But no matter who.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

to this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Ministry of Suppression, it is an organization that maintains the stability of Daqin. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.

It can be said.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone had a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The town magic department is very big.

Those who can stay in the Town Demon Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two occupations, one is the guardian envoy and the other is the demon slayer.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts from the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then he was promoted step by step, and finally he was expected to become a guardian envoy.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest-ranked slayer.

Has the memory of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Town Demon Division.

It didn't take too long, Shen Changqing stopped in front of an attic.

Different from other places full of chills in the Demon Suppression Division, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, showing a different tranquility in the **** Suppression Demon Division.

At this time, the door to the attic was open, and occasionally people came in and out.

Shen Changqing just hesitated for a moment, then stepped inside.

Enter the attic.

Circumstances have changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood rushed towards his face, causing his brows to instinctively wrinkle, but then quickly stretched.

There is almost no way to clean the **** smell on everyone in the Zhen Mosi.
