afterglow

Chapter 283 Chapter [-] Let's find you a partner; love in a dream!
To be honest, in Zhou Changfeng's view, such a move is a bit inexplicable.

The three armed forces of the Ming Dynasty, especially the navy, have long leaned to the right, but it’s not obvious on the outside. It seems superfluous to carry out propaganda in this time period?
When the fight is really about to start, the morale of the navy is definitely the highest, and the positions are the most consistent.

Zhu Lingjing saw his confusion, so she said succinctly: "You can't think about things themselves. The main reason is that such a complicated and wavering faction is out of date today."

"Understood." Zhou Changfeng nodded and said, "How should I put it, this...diversified state is not suitable for war."

"Diversified?" Hearing this new word, Zhu Lingjing felt a little amused, she sat upright and picked up the teacup, "You are flattering them, why are you so tactful? Chowder is just chowder."

Although not as large as the Constitutional Council, which accounts for nearly half of the country, factions such as the Chinese Party and the National People's Congress are more refined, and members are not acceptable to anyone. The political views of each other converge in the general direction, and the differences are basically limited to small details.

In this regard, Zhu Lingjing really looked down on the large group of members of the Constitutional Council who were mixed with fish and dragons.

Speaking of these, Zhou Changfeng tried to bring the topic back to the matter that he and Xu Zhanming stopped abruptly yesterday.

"There will always be conflicts, so don't take them too seriously. Although the prince's temperament is stubborn, they are still consistent on the whole. This is enough, and the conflicts will not intensify to the point of shaking the overall situation."

"That's right. Also, there are quite a few generals in the army who are quite critical of the current situation of the Constitutional Council. It is difficult for everyone to rest assured that the court is dominated by such a group of people..."

"I would be worried too." Zhu Lingjing stared at the ups and downs of tea leaves, and replied slowly: "But it's okay, unless there are major decision-making mistakes one after another, there will be no separation between the army and the court."

"It makes sense... Your Highness is right."

"You basically have nothing to do these days, what are your usual plans?"

"It's really free. I usually think about the theory of tactics and weapons." Zhou Changfeng replied casually.

"The rest of the time is spent with your little wife, right? I wish you an early child." Zhu Lingjing joked, and then said with a little emotion: "It's also fulfilling."

"Then I'll borrow your auspicious words."

"If the expenses are too high, don't be restrained, just say it."

Zhou Changfeng cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness, but I don't have much desire for material things, and I usually don't spend much on food and drink."

Hey, this guy is still as difficult to manage and manage as before. I thought that after getting married, I would become more realistic and materialistic, but I didn't expect it to be the same as before.

"That's it, it's six o'clock soon, do you want to stay for dinner?"

"Thank you for your kindness, but my wife is still waiting. I don't have a chance to eat the big meal at His Highness's mansion this time."

Staying here for dinner doesn't appeal to Zhou Changfeng, since he has already asked about the cake he painted, there is no need to stay any longer.

After chatting with Zhu Lingjing for a long time, he was satisfied and left the princess mansion quickly when he saw that it was getting late.

"Hang chi chi—" The burning gasoline engine made a steady roar.

In order to get home on time, he hurriedly drove along the way he had come.

The setting sun is setting, it is the end of the evening rush hour, and the passers-by around him are like him, thinking about their loved ones at home and the prepared dinner.

Citizens who got off work crowded the trams to the brim; both sides of the street were full of trendy bicycles, so densely packed that the front wheels were almost touching the rear wheels; occasionally motorcycles passed by with a loud roar, nimbly passing through the middle of the road .

After arriving at Sanshan Avenue, which separates Nancheng District and Zhongcheng District, the situation improved a lot, and it was no longer so busy.

Zhou Changfeng pulled the lever to upshift, and then glanced at his watch. It was past 40:[-], and it would be no problem to get home before [-]:[-] without accident.

But he just came for whatever he was afraid of, and a sharp whistle broke through the peaceful environment.

From the rearview mirror, he saw a motorcycle approaching at high speed, and swished past the off-road vehicle he was driving.

Followed by two police cars from Jiangning County Police, but they obviously couldn't catch up with Yiqi Juechen's motorcycle.

Because the car production capacity of Ming Dynasty is concentrated on trucks, there are not many cars, and only high-ranking officials and businessmen will buy them. The "low-end" car market is dominated by large quantities of cheap American products.

Because domestic car companies have sufficient business—except for a large number of trucks, cars are mainly high-end luxury, and the target users are government officials. There is no worry of being impacted and declining. Therefore, the imperial court did not target the cars exported by Ford and General Motors to Daming. Excessive tariffs.

In the long run, the time to raise tariffs will be when the scale of the country's auto industry expands to the point where it can produce a large number of cars.

A large number of cheap imported Ford Model A cars are very common among the people. The Ming police also use them as police cars. The painting style is generally black on the upper half and white on the lower half. .

"Stop! Stop!"

A police car continued to chase, and the latter one called to stop Zhou Changfeng.

He was so puzzled that he thought it was a misunderstanding, but he didn't expect the two patrolmen to ask: "Sir, are you busy now?! We have to borrow a car!"

You don't need to say much, you don't need to think about it, you know what you want to do.

"Get in the car, I'll drive."

"Trouble!"

Two patrolmen immediately opened the door and sat up. The Xunlei XVI off-road vehicle quickly started and chased after it at high speed.

"Just follow the car in front, the escaped thieves are still ahead."

The Ford Model A equipped with a 40-horsepower gasoline engine could originally run at a speed of 100㎞/h. However, as a police car, the Jiangning County Police modified it and added bulletproof steel plates inside the doors. run so fast.

In contrast, the Xunlei series off-road vehicles for military use are more powerful. Although they do not have a streamlined design, they are powerful enough to fly.

After overtaking the police car in front, the fleeing motorcycle in front came into view.

The scenery on both sides flashed quickly, and the speed of the car at the moment had already exceeded [-], so that Zhou Changfeng was a little uncomfortable-it was the first time that time travel had been driven so fast in the past two years.

The two suspects who fled were also called speeding gangs in later generations. They were extremely arrogant at one time.

The law and order of the Ming capital has been a headache for successive emperors since ancient times. Since the Zhengtong and Chenghua years, there have been countless large and small cases every year.During the Chenghua period, Jin Yiwei reported that the thieves in Shuntian Mansion were mainly three types of people: wandering monks, wicked young rogues, and wandering soldiers.

The former and the latter are rare nowadays, but the local ruffians are really difficult to deal with. Today, it is the two villains who have attracted two police cars and four patrolmen to chase after them.

"Bang! Bang!"

"Stop! Fuck you! Stop!"

After getting closer, the two patrolmen shouted and fired warning shots into the sky, but the two in front turned a deaf ear.

Seeing that they were about to be overtaken, the two of them turned in a hurry, trying to drive out of the avenue to the nearby streets and alleys to get rid of the patrolling policemen who were chasing them.

But the so-called evil comes with evil, I don't know whether it was crushed by gravel or slipped, this motorcycle suddenly lost control and overturned!
The two young suspects screamed and fell to the ground, gurgling and rolling, drawing a series of bloodstains and clothing fragments on the ground.

When the incident happened suddenly, Zhou Changfeng and the two patrol officers were shocked for a moment, then slowed down and stopped, then rushed over to completely subdue him.

"These two things looted property in the street in broad daylight, and then hacked and wounded a patrolman with a knife...Damn it! Wait to go to jail!"

The two, covered in blood, were kicked several times before they were handcuffed.

Zhou Changfeng was quite surprised by the two suspects, who looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old. For a while, he couldn't figure out how they could afford a motorcycle.

"I snatched it up, grab it a few times first, and then I can buy it when I have enough stolen money." A middle-aged patrolman replied without thinking: "What a disaster!"

By the way, I helped to catch the two evil boys, and gained a little sense of participation and honor, but the price was that the setting sun had already touched the horizon.

After all, it was a bit late.

When Zhou Changfeng returned home, he saw the lonely Xia Xiaoshi standing up with joy in her eyes.

She said with some complaints: "Sir, why are you so late, the dishes are almost cold."

"On the way back, there was an unexpected situation. Two young rogues robbed and wounded someone on a motorcycle. The police almost missed... There is no way, I have to help if I don't want to."

"It's such a coincidence. As expected of you, sir, you have to do it after all."

"Ahem, it's better to have fewer things like this..."

Zhou Changfeng ate this meal a little absent-mindedly. The figure of his wife alone made him feel a little uncomfortable, especially when he thought that when he was away, she could only guard the vacant room alone, and he really felt a little guilty.

Although he himself didn't mind Xia Xiaoshi moving back to her natal family during that period, Xia's father and mother didn't think so.

It’s fine to live here occasionally, how can there be any reason to live in her mother’s house for a long time after marrying a wife?

In ancient times, a married woman would only be able to go back to her natal home on the second day of the first lunar month after a year, and she could not stay overnight.

He hesitated for a while, and asked, "Xiaoshi, maybe you will be home alone for several months in the future, why don't you buy a cat? A dog is also fine, or hire someone. It's still very troublesome to have no one to take care of you during pregnancy. of."

Xia Xiaoshi, who was picking up vegetables, said happily, "That's exactly what I mean, sir, you understand me very well."

She blinked her eyes and said hesitantly, "If you don't like dogs, you should keep a cat."

"Why don't you like dogs? Oh, I remembered, is it because you were bitten by a dog when you were a child?"

"Yeah, it's scary."

"Hahahaha—why do I find it a little funny?"

"Hmph——Zhou Kexing! Do you know how painful that needle is!"

Of course Daming has rabies vaccines, and the production is plentiful and the price is not expensive.

Since the great French microbiologist Louis Pasteur successfully invented the rabies vaccine in the late nineteenth century, humans finally have the ability to contain this terrible infectious disease with a fatality rate close to 100%.

In the sixth year of Zhichang, the research team of Guangzhou Municipal Hospital and Guangzhou University successfully imitated the Pasteur vaccine and put it into use soon.

Ten years later, the teachers and students of Furong University in Chengdu tried to iterate the rabies virus in the rabbit brain, and finally succeeded in cultivating a better attenuated rabies virus strain, the Lishi strain, through 32 iterations.The strain stimulated the immune system well, with fewer side effects, and has since been widely used to make vaccines.

The young Xia Xiaoshi was vaccinated with this vaccine five times. The long needle tube and clear pain made her unforgettable forever.

The next half month was unremarkable, except that there was an extra two-month-old cat in the small house.

The thing that broke this leisurely life came from the air force - the intermediate power bullets and corresponding rifles proposed a long time ago finally took shape.

At that time, after adopting the relevant suggestions, the Air Force asked the paratrooper units for their opinions, and after summarizing the technical indicators, they invited public bids from government-run and private companies in the north and south of the river.

Today, as the deadline for sample delivery and comparison is reached, five or six types of intermediate-power ammunition and rifles have been concentrated in the Arms Bureau for unified PK.

As the original proposer and an officer with a certain right to speak, Zhou was invited without any suspense.

The Military Weapons Bureau, which is responsible for examining, registering, and summarizing the weapons and equipment of the three services, is a fairly large organization. Among the first department, the second bureau, the three departments and the seven divisions of the entire Ministry of War, the only larger one is the Munitions Department.

The Ministry of War was an old place that Zhou Changfeng was very familiar with. He found the right place with ease and came to the second floor of the Weapons Bureau.

After verifying his identity, he walked through the crowd full of expectations.

Because the participants have not yet arrived, the people present are all doing their own things, chatting, strolling, dazed, reading, and there are several boxes of ammunition in the front, and there are already numbered and neatly placed. rifle.

There are a total of six manufacturers participating in the bidding, and there are also six types of bullets and rifles, which can be described as dazzling.

Gun first or bullet first?The importance of the two is actually at the same level. It is not appropriate to match a good gun with a bad bullet, or a good bullet with a bad gun.

Taking a thread-bound booklet, Zhou Changfeng looked through the six intermediate power bombs with great interest.

Due to tight deadlines and limited time, the manufacturers did not have enough time to gradually optimize and improve their works. The guns and bullets that participated in the PK this time can only be regarded as prototypes.

Originally, because the deadline was tight, half of the manufacturers directly gave up bidding, but the Air Force promised that this was only a "preliminary test" and that good or bad would not affect the final result, which saved a few companies.

Yingtian Arsenal has continued to use the 7.36×35.2mm ammunition they developed out of their own pocket many years ago, and only slightly modified the warhead, focusing on the research and development of the gun.

The ballistic data is quite satisfactory, very mediocre, there is nothing outstanding, Zhou Changfeng is not interested.

The Shenyang Army Artillery Factory was very bold and used a design of 23×7.04mm instead of following the requirement of “it is best to use a caliber of 32mm”.

The highlight is the overall lightness, soft recoil, and good ballistic performance within 150 meters.It's a pity that after 200 meters, the trajectory changes greatly, and it is so curved that it can be called the pee trajectory.

What caught Zhou Changfeng's eyes was the work of Guangzhou Arsenal - 7.36×40mm bullet. They improved the previous experimental ammunition, changed the warhead to a stern shape, and added a small amount of propellant.

The overall ballistic performance is unbelievable, very straight - at 100m, the trajectory is about 19cm above the baseline, at 200m it is about 20.5cm above the baseline, and it coincides with the baseline at a distance of 300m.

This is simply a dream come true!It's hard to imagine how they did it.

　Provincial flow: the ballistic performance of the works of Guangzhou Arsenal is slightly better than that of the classic M43 rifle ammunition
