1717 New American Empire

Xiao Lin's salary is not that easy to get. Twenty-seven engineers with backward technology from major arsenals in the United States are now receiving three times their previous salary. Each person's monthly benefits and salary add up

, which costs about 150,000 yuan. This is a very high price in China.

The country has a year's salary for many people. Since they have received such generous remuneration, they naturally have to do things well. The engineers also understand that this can also be said to be Xiao Lin's territory. At any time, he can let Zarkam's

If people pull them out and kill them, no one will know.

Of course, Xiao Lin has not shown any such signs now. However, the two younger brothers Yu Xiao and Qu Jun are not afraid of doing anything. They often hint to them intentionally or unintentionally and urge these people quietly. In the guarantee

After a basic rest,

All engineers put in 120,000 efforts. After half a year and five months of modifications and repairs, they finally completed the production of the m1917a1 Browning (water-cooled) heavy machine gun and the Czech ZB-26 light machine gun.

Process improvement.

The first batch of standard light and heavy machine guns produced in the arsenal have been placed in the underground test range of the arsenal. Among this batch of weapons, there are 120 light machine guns and only 36 heavy machine guns due to the complicated production process. Equipment installation and

The improvement is not very good. This is the entire production capacity of the factory for one and a half months. Moreover, several skilled operators have been stunned by this. In the following months, this production efficiency cannot be maintained.

Fortunately, it can meet the firepower requirements of a battalion of ten light machine guns and three heavy machine guns. The light machine gun bullets can be used with rifle bullets. The production during this period, plus the previous accumulation, already has 300

Thousands of rounds for each heavy machine gun,

Each has almost 30,000 rounds of bullets. With the subsequent productivity, it should be enough for fighting in the 18th century. The heavy machine gun uses 12.7-caliber steel-core bullets, which cannot be replaced by the 7.62-mm caliber bullets commonly used by companies today.

This is also to enhance the shooting power of the heavy machine gun. The 12.7-caliber heavy machine gun is enough to pose a huge threat to the enemy's wooden walls and Iroquois-style bulletproof shields. Defense facilities that can block 7.62 mm caliber bullets, as long as they are not specifically designed for defense

artillery

It is basically impossible to defend against the heavy fire of 12.7 mm caliber heavy machine guns. Take the time when the Adams family's ancestral home was attacked in the small town of Lexington. If there were heavy machine guns, there would be no need for soldiers to risk their lives to rush in, and they would just be outside.

Just use a machine gun to smash all the windows.

However, there are very few bullets. There are only 360,000 rounds in total, which can only satisfy one bullet for 10,000 rounds. The bullets tested all have a bullet chain, each with 150 rounds of bullets. Xiao Lin returned to 21

Century, he immediately bought a flight ticket to the Republic of Beran. He bought too many tickets and got a 10% discount card, thanking him for taking care of his business. He rushed to the arsenal without stopping, and everyone was waiting for them to come and inspect the goods in person.

Xiao Lin didn't talk nonsense. He came up to adjust his mental state and immediately started the weapon test. The light machine gun fired ten magazines. The specific performance reached 99% of the design performance. There was no small flaw.

Too many influences. As workers become more proficient in the craft, this one percent gap will slowly disappear. As for heavy machine guns, you can’t see much from one magazine, but the performance is only 100% of the design performance.

Ninety-five and above.

Xiao Lin just came to receive it first. There were not many bullets, so he could only pull down the troops and let the soldiers conduct actual combat, training and weapon performance tests together. That night, all the machine guns and bullets were transported by Xiao Lin to the camp in the late winter of 1718.

In the North American continent, the time has slowly arrived for the Spring Festival of the second year, and the company is now preparing for the Spring Festival celebrations. However, the soldiers of the escort team have no chance to do this. Christmas is only a week away.

In the end, the troops who surrendered the large British Indian tribe returned here when Xiao Lin returned to the company. Under Xiao Lin's arrangement, each battalion received its own light machine gun and heavy machine gun. Use the revolving

The warriors of wheeled machine guns are no strangers to this large continuous-fire weapon. However, although they are both continuous-fire machine guns, these two types of light machine guns and heavy machine guns are still not as advanced as the roulette machine gun. The soldiers have some

I am confused, since there are more advanced weapons, why should we equip them with backward ones?

It's not that Xiao Lin doesn't want to prepare them for them, but that it's a rotating machine gun. Now there are only thirty of them found in the entire country of China. Not to mention that the parts have been produced, but the manufacturing process has been sealed for decades. You

If it weren't for tens of thousands of purchases, they would never restart it for you. And for tens of thousands of rotating machine guns, getting approval documents is an extremely difficult task. It's even impossible.

Moreover, there are not even 10,000 soldiers in the company's escort team now. Do they need to have a rotating machine gun to hold the Tutu? Xiao Lin is not that rich. He can't make it himself, and he can't get the craftsmanship. Even the arsenal doesn't have that now.

To produce according to the ability, it is natural to choose suitable weapons and equipment. After grabbing the weapons and replenishing bullets and mortar shells, the ten battalions separated and headed towards their own attack targets.

With the addition of machine gun firepower, Xiao Lin was very relieved that these ten combat battalions had been formed for several months at the latest and had experienced formal battles. The six, seven, eight, and nine battalions had the worst attack and defense capabilities.

four British settlements. These four settlements are connected with each other.

It can't even be considered as a village, it can only be regarded as a large village at most. The maximum population is only 3,000 people, and the militia force can only be 500 at most. Battalions 1 to 5, as well as the Night Owl Special Reconnaissance Battalion, have to deal with six people with a population of 5,000.

Above, the militia troops were in the British settlement of about a thousand people.

These ten places were carefully selected by Xiao Lin. Some of them are the outer strongholds of the British colonies, and some are the second-tier British colonial settlements. If these ten settlements are captured,

Even if the Charles family and the trader tribe cannot make any contribution, the entire British defense line facing the company will be completely broken. It can be said that if Adolf's Hessian mercenaries are not transferred back, the British will temporarily use the company to protect them.

The team has no choice.

The engineers wrote a sufficiently detailed manual for the operation of light and heavy machine guns. Along the way, the soldiers who were carried by bicycles and motorcycles and were selected to operate the machine guns studied carefully. A week later, Xiao Lin, regardless of gasoline consumption, all

The troops were all in place. Everyone stopped about ten miles outside the British settlement. This distance was relatively far for the British who still used war horses. But for the escort soldiers who used bicycles and gasoline motorcycles,

The settlement can be attacked in less than half an hour.

Christmas is a very important festival for white people. Christmas is also called Christmas Day, the birthday of Jesus, and is translated as "Christ's Mass." It is a traditional Western festival that originated from Christianity and is held on December 25 every year. Mass is the church's

A kind of liturgy. Christmas is a religious festival, because it is celebrated as the birth of Jesus, so it is called "Christmas". Now in Europe, religious ideas have long been unified by the Catholic Church.

In the Middle Ages, the words of the Christian pope were more effective than the rulers of the kingdom, the kings, and the rulers of the principalities, the dukes. Nowadays, even the poorest white families will buy a house on this day.

Some food that we can't bear to part with in ordinary days, the family spends a good holiday together. As for the company, thanks to Xiao Lin's efforts, they don't pay much attention to Christmas. On the contrary, they prefer the Spring Festival.

During Christmas, the company does not provide any benefits. You can spend your own money to buy things if you want. Christmas trees are well-made and beautiful, but they are also expensive. The factory does not have holidays, unless you are on rotation.

, otherwise you will just be absent from work or pretend to be sick and ask for leave. If you pretend to be sick and ask for leave, the factory will send a factory doctor to help you treat you. It is impossible to pretend. If you are absent from work, it will be miserable. You will be notified of criticism and your salary will be deducted, including the Spring Festival bonus.

buckle.

The Spring Festival is different. The company collectively arranges a five-day holiday. Each unit must distribute New Year's goods, including food, clothing, and generous year-end bonuses. Whether they are white or Indian, they are not

Idiots with IQs below 60. With this comparison, I naturally have some thoughts about which holiday to celebrate. During the Spring Festival, you can also use the radio to listen to various programs broadcast by the company. English songs are paired with clips of the Spring Festival Gala, which makes you feel comfortable at this time.

People are intoxicated by how many cultural and entertainment activities there are.

However, the soldiers of the Christmas Guard will naturally not have their morale affected by the arrival of this holiday and the fact that they are still eating and sleeping outside. On the contrary, they can take advantage of the luxurious life of the nobles and the tightening of their belts by the common people to attack the enemy.

Launch a surprise attack. The British really didn't have this idea. The Indians didn't have the strength to attack them. Other white countries also had to celebrate Christmas. On this day, even the frontline battlefields of Britain and France had a tacit agreement to cease war with each other. Various

Celebrate the holidays.

It was half past eight in the evening. At this time, the white people began to prepare for the Christmas celebrations. Although it was relatively early and it was not very dark yet, the time was very ripe. The soldiers made a pair of watches to confirm the plan.

When the time is up, immediately leave the hiding place and start moving towards the attack target. Each battalion commander will first give encouragement to each soldier.

"Comrades, from this moment on, our company can only be on the world stage..."
