Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 145 Layout
As early as when the soldiers of the Qianhusuo returned to the capital from Shanxi, Liu Hongjian sent people to Shanhaiguan. The three Semu people, a captain, a mercenary, and a shipwright, not only understood the European situation, but also possessed skills. In the next plan, they are very useful.

Besides, these three foreigners were left in Shanhaiguan by Liu Hongjian. There was no news for several months. He thought that the commander-in-chief had forgotten about them. He was very happy to get the news that Liu Hongjian was going to take them to the capital.

You must know that they have been wandering in Daming for the past few years in order to seek a future in the capital. Unfortunately, they were deceived and abducted along the way.

Fortunately, the Chief Soldier took pity on them, not only gave them a place to stay, but now he wanted to take them to the capital, which was their dream place. With the escort of Jin Yiwei, the journey went smoothly, and the three of them waited until they arrived in the capital. There is also a feeling of dreaming.

"My lord, thank you for your kindness, Juan Gonzalez thanks you!"

Seeing Liu Hongjian in a unicorn suit walking out of the inner courtyard, Juan organized his speech and bowed to Liu Hongjian in salute, while the other two hurriedly followed.

"Hahaha, welcome to Beijing! My friend!" Liu Hongjian stepped forward to shake hands with them, which made the three of them a little flattered.

"My lord, is there anything we can do for you?" Juan understood that if he wanted to have a place in Daming, he had to prove his ability.

"It's not busy, it's cold outside, let's go inside and talk!" Liu Hongjian went to the central hall first, and the three of them followed suit.

"I remember that one of you knows about firearms. I wonder if you have seen this kind of firearm?" Liu Hongjian took out the blueprint of the flintlock and handed it to Hu An.

After taking it, Juan only glanced at it, and handed it to Carl beside him. Carl is a fanatical fighter, and he is interested in everything related to war.

"My lord, this is a percussion-type quick-fire gun. The Royal Netherlands Navy is already equipped with it, and several other countries in Europe are also equipped with it." Carl's eyes lit up just by looking at it.

"My lord, I can help you improve this gun!" Carl said in amazement.

When Karl and Schultz came to Daming, they brought such a gun with them, but it was snatched away by kind and honest Daming people within a few days.

Hearing Carl's words, it was Liu Hongjian's turn to be surprised. Originally, he thought that the three of them had seen flintlock guns at most, but they had not only seen them, but could improve them. What surprised Liu Hongjian even more was that the current European Has begun to be equipped with flintlock guns on a large scale.

As for Daming, he still held the three-eyed firecracker from decades ago.

On the basis of the rotary flintlock, the percussion flintlock removes the clockwork steel wheel and ignites the gunpowder with the impact of flint, which improves the shooting accuracy and firing rate.
The single flintlock is still a muzzle-loading gun, and special tools are required for projectile assembly. Since they are all hand-made, the accuracy of the muzzle cannot be guaranteed.

When loading projectiles, it is necessary to put the projectiles into the muzzle, use a wooden hammer to send the bullets, and push the bullets into the chamber. This is very time-consuming. On the battlefield, it means a waste of life.

In an accidental experiment, Karl discovered that using linen cloth or deerskin sheets dipped in grease to wrap the projectiles and load them into the muzzle reduces friction, which not only speeds up the loading speed, but also plays a role of air-holding, which improves the accuracy and range. increased.

Liu Hongjian was very pleasantly surprised, but now there are only talents and blueprints, but no site, so it is imperative to build a research and development center.

After the three of them settled down, Liu Hongjian saw that it was still early, so he went straight to the household department with a big stick and a horse.

He needs craftsmen, blacksmiths, stonemasons, carpenters, etc., and the household department is in charge of the household registration of craftsmen. He needs the household department to help issue a notice to recruit craftsmen from the entire Ming Dynasty.

Although the most skilled craftsmen were in the core departments such as the Bingzhan Bureau under the Ministry of Industry, in order not to affect the progress of the project of the Ministry of Industry, Liu Hongjian still planned to recruit from the local area. After all, poaching a corner is not something glorious.

With the approval of Chongzhen, the Minister of the Household Department was also unambiguous, and directly ordered people to issue a recruitment notice in the North Zhili area, requiring all registered craftsmen to report to the Household Department within five days.

At Liu Hongjian's request, a short sentence was added at the end of the announcement, "The selected ones will have Yueyin."

PS: My friend is getting married, I'm so drunk, it's a bit short, please forgive me, I will make up for you when I come back from the National Day.
