Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

Frost Moon on the 24th, Tuesday.

The Principality of high latitudes and Lapland entered the winter early, and the original muddy road became solid under the power of frost. Stepping on a solid, steely ground, Major Nikolai Ivanovich Yezhov agent entered the door of the office of the highest security agency in the country. The heating in the room makes the majors who are suffering from the cold wind outdoors very comfortable. As the guard on guard closed the door, the nine conspirators in the room began their meeting.

This conspiracy used as a fuse for war has been prepared for more than a month. Compared with the rough and chaotic battle plan, the conspiracy to provoke war is extremely meticulous.

"The scheduled launch time is 9 pm on the 26th. Major Lobanov's artillery battalion will shell the periphery of the small village of Mainila on the side of the country, and Lieutenant Colonel Seripiski will detonate according to the scene. The preset explosives, and fired at the sky. Afterwards, three corpses in Lapland uniforms were left around the crater..."

"Interrupt, is the body ready?"

Major General Concorachenko asked.

"Thirteen smugglers are prepared, and the military uniform is ready, just waiting for the shells to explode."

"Very good, please continue."

"Major Strsell’s border patrol immediately attacked the Lapland army on the other side of the border upon hearing the gunfire, and at the same time reported that the'Lapland army shelled our territory for no reason and attacked the border patrol unit.' —”

The spy major paused for a moment, and very interested did not continue.

Afterwards, whether it is to launch a war of public opinion, a diplomatic war, or a formal declaration of war, that is all a matter for civil servants. There is only one thing they have to do.

go ahead.

go ahead.

Continue to the newly demarcated border.

"Gentlemen."

Major General Contrachenko cleared his throat, Shen Sheng said:

"Mother God bless the Principality, we will be invincible."

"For your majesty, for the motherland."

The conspirators all stood up, with a dignified and solemn look.

After three consecutive days on the train, after getting off the train full of odors, he took a carriage and plunged into a military camp hidden in the pine forest. Every day I practice decomposing and maintaining new firearms, aiming for practice, loading quickly, and there will be a coordinated assault drill every three days. Without orders and permission, no one can leave the barracks, at most each row turns to the sauna after twilight, pats the body with cypress branches, stretches the muscles and blood vessels, and cleans up the lice and fleas.

Sergeant Antonov walked out of the sauna with the soldiers who had just taken a shower. The platoon leader Lieutenant Yakov was standing outside smoking.

"Sergeant, let the soldiers hurry and get a good night's sleep. We will be busy starting tomorrow."

The platoon leader was tired of playing the bomb, and the ashes as long as the fingers dropped the grass.

"Follow the orders, Mr. Ensign!"

After standing respectfully and respectfully, Sergeant Antonov carefully leaned in and lowered his voice and asked:

"Mr. Ensign, are you going to war?"

Lieutenant Yakov was not surprised by this problem. Military officers and non-commissioned officers are well aware that rumors and rumors about the war these days have been circulating. Especially those veterans who always like to show off “exclusive news” in front of recruits and show their omniscience. God knows where they come from so many sources of information. Even the Ministry’s confidentiality measures seem to be useless to them. They will patiently explain when washing dishes, cleaning shoes, maintaining guns, and playing cards. The war will start soon, and it will end soon. They will return home with generous trophies to celebrate the New Year.

No one doubts whether the war will come, and no one doubts that the war will end in a form other than the overwhelming victory of the Principality.

Victory is inevitable, as is easy victory.

The supernatural veterans showed off the "latest news" they got from the sauna, from the canteen, from the logistics department, from the confession ceremony, from the female secretary in an office-the Principality has reached a diplomatic agreement with the empire, and the empire will Press Lapland and loan the Isthmus of Karelia to the Principality. The current assembly is to prepare for the next reception operation, all they have to do is an armed march.

As a warrior veteran, Sergeant Antonov listened to too many "beautiful fairy tales" filled with personal subjective wishes. Whenever gossip and similar words spread quickly, there will be a **** after a long time. War is coming. The smiley faces that talk about "beautiful fairy tales" are always ten after the battle.

How many people will live to hear the New Year's bell this time?

The old sergeant's heart echoed a desolate sigh that was not completely numb. As an excellent fighter and an outstanding veteran, he is lucky enough and excellent enough. But as a living person, a pure soldier who views the army as a big family and comrades as brothers and sisters, seeing a group of people who are not involved in the world, have not experienced the terrible wars, and have not mastered combat and survival skills. The young man just rushed the ducks to face the unknown fate. He inevitably felt anxious, uneasy, and somewhat sad.

"It's better to have more time, these are great guys. At most one month, I can make them reborn and become elite warriors..."

The old sergeant took out the cigarette and handed it to Lieutenant Yakov. His respectful expression could not conceal his anxiety and anxiety.

"Weather won't wait for us, the enemy won't wait for us, and the big guys above won't give us alms for even a week."

Lieutenant Yakov put the cigarette in his jacket pocket and looked around for a while, then whispered:

"The only way now is to seize the last time and let them know what they should do and how to do it as far as possible. This is the guarantee that can really keep their lives. Those rumors and politicians and generals' guarantees are not as good as one. A rifle fired normally is reliable."

"You are right."

The sergeant smiled bitterly with the second lieutenant.

The reliability of infantry weapons, especially rifles, has plagued the army of the Principality in recent years. Complaints about the frequent failures of rifles and the difficulty of warranty flooded the grassroots of the army, and were even compiled into various jokes.

As long as it is a machine and has been in use, failure is an unavoidable problem. The higher the intensity of use, the harsher the environment and the more complex the structure, the less likely it is to avoid.

This problem is not very obvious when the flintlock musket is installed in front of the equipment. With the gradual replacement of new firearms, problems such as the failure of firearms, the loss of weapons, and the soldiers' mastery of weapon maintenance and repair skills become important.

The Principality Army felt this problem after equipping the Dreiser needle gun. This type of rifle uses the principle of "acupuncture" firing. The projectiles, detonator and black powder are all contained in a cylindrical paper shell, but the detonator is not installed at the tail of the shell, but in the middle of the bottom surface of the projectile. When the trigger is pulled, the force of the spring releases the elongated needle, piercing the bottom of the bullet shell from the front end of the gun, and moving forward until it pierces the detonator at the bottom of the projectile and detonates it, and then ignites Black gunpowder in a paper shell.

One problem with this design is that the needle is too long. Long needles often come into contact with hot gunpowder and cause damage to the needles. The entire bolt has to be removed for disassembly and replacement. In addition, the breech filling mechanism of this gun is very airtight, and the blasting gunpowder gas will interfere with the aim of the shooter, and may even burn the face and eyes. It makes it difficult for the shooter to aim and shoot safely. In fact, this is also a common problem with early post-load rifles. The Xia Saipu rifles equipped by the old Charlemagne army also have similar problems, but the Charlemagne alleviated this problem by optimizing the structural design. They only need to replace the sealing ring frequently. It is much more convenient than the "toothpick" that is a needle gun that makes countless soldiers of the Principality hate.

The soldiers of the Principality once cursed "this is the most difficult gun in the world", "a gun suitable only for the enemy", and "Lao Tzu doesn't have to use this rag even if it's a sieve!" But when the Principality's self-developed Federov automatic guns began to be installed, the soldiers clamored "true fragrance" with the needle gun.

Based on the power displayed by automatic weapons in the previous war, all countries regard researching individual automatic weapons as an important future direction. The United Kingdom, as a traditional army power, also invested a lot in this area. With the efforts of a group of highly talented engineers, the automatic robbery represented by Federov automatic guns was born.

It should be said that the military and engineers of the Principality have a long-term vision. They are not satisfied with imitating the firearms of the empire or seeking only an emergency product. What they want is an entire generalized gun family, based on a certain design, designed and developed to meet the needs of all units of the Principality Army. At the same time meet the performance, output and equipment convenience.

This is an idea that is ahead of the whole era, and even the empire designer can’t help but take off his hat to pay tribute while reading the relevant ideas. However, because it is too advanced, it is difficult to achieve the perfect firearms ideal for the masters with the current metallurgical processing technology~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In reality, they have to choose to compromise. As a result of the compromise, the various problems originally hidden in the drawings were magnified, and the new gun family that should have become the ideal weapon became a problem baby that was complained by the grassroots and production units as soon as it came out.

Taking the automatic rifle as an example here, due to the short recoil working principle of the barrel and the double-locked swinging locking mechanism, the structure of the whole gun is too complicated, there are many parts, and it is very inconvenient to disassemble and combine, and wipe and maintain. The gun designed most of the parts that may scratch people with rounded corners, which is very good from an ergonomic point of view, but greatly increases the processing time. The gun is marked with a gun number on the external joints, handles, casings, and internal hammers. It can be seen that the current production process in the Principality of the Principality cannot guarantee the versatility of parts. In short, this is a difficult weapon to produce.

Sergeant Antonov also used this rifle. Apart from the tedious maintenance, the performance of this gun was also a lot of problems. First of all, the new 6.5㎜ rifle bullets are not as lethal and cannot be fired under overheated or contaminated conditions. In addition, in the full-automatic shooting mode, only the first few bullets can accurately hit the target, and then the whole shuttle will deviate from the trajectory and the shooting will become useless.

Putting new recruits who have not yet fully mastered this weapon on the battlefield is a joke about the lives of these young people.

One month, even if it is only one more month, so that more soldiers can save their lives.

However, as a sergeant, a low-level veteran, all they can do is wait and execute orders.

At about 9 o'clock on the 26th of Frost Moon, a few earth-shattering loud noises were heard from the border village of Mainila. Lieutenant Yakov and Sergeant Antonov led the soldiers into the attack position.

The war has begun.
