Global Games: I am invincible

Holding an object called a musket in his hand, He Songsheng’s heart was filled with turmoil. Naturally, he knew how powerful this object was. If the entire army could be equipped with muskets.

That fighting power will be extremely terrifying.

Compared with bows and arrows, muskets are light and effortless, and can carry a large amount of gunpowder and projectiles on their body, which is absolutely unmatched by archers.

The scariest thing is.

Anyone can use a musket with amazing lethality without long training. This is an extremely cruel thing in the cold weapon era.

Flintlock guns are very different from modern firearms. First of all, what Lu Ming can currently make is the original type of muzzle-loading smoothbore gun. Both gunpowder and bullets have to be stuffed into the barrel from the muzzle.

Then the flint is used to ignite the gunpowder.

Therefore the rate of fire is slower.

A skilled user can fire two or three shots a minute, or even five shots, but this is the limit, and if there is not enough gunpowder.

Then the bullet fired will be very weak.

The solution to this problem is not difficult. Just use oil paper to fill a certain amount of gunpowder and bullets.���All together, this is called a fixed paper bullet.

It means that the bullets are loaded with gunpowder in a fixed amount.

He Songsheng said excitedly: “Sir, with this musket, our combat effectiveness will be greatly improved in a short period of time!”

“This is the question I came to you to answer. Lu

Ming said: “It is necessary to organize soldiers to conduct musket use and shooting training. However, this thing is too dangerous. Once it is hidden secretly, there will be endless troubles.” ”

He Songsheng immediately understood。

“What do you mean, sir, that I and the guards will strictly guard the muskets and gunpowder, and no one will be allowed to come into contact with them except for training?”

“That’s right. Lu

Ming patted He Songsheng’s shoulder and said, “You and I are the only ones who can rest assured. Even if it’s a bullet or a bit of gunpowder, it needs to be strictly monitored.”。”

“Sir, please rest assured that I will live up to my humble duty! ”

He Songsheng solemnly accepted the order.

So.

The arming and shooting training of the flintlock guns began quietly. Under the extremely strict supervision and organization of the guards, the soldiers in the village began to train secretly on a regular basis. Due to the number of flintlock

guns and the There is not much gunpowder and bullets, and they can only be used in turns at present, and each person can only shoot two bullets at most in one training session.

Even so, the combat effectiveness of the recruits has been greatly improved. Once the number of firearms catches up, they will A strong fighting force will soon be formed.

On this day,

Lu Ming called Zhang Heng over again。

“Zhang Heng greets you, sir! ”

Zhang Heng became uneasy again. He was thinking that the guarding envoy had regretted his decision and finally decided to detain his goods?

Lu Ming asked: “Zhang Heng, do you have sucrose in your caravan? ”

Zhang Heng was suddenly startled.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and admitted honestly: “There is indeed some sucrose. If you like it, the common people will give it to you.……”

Cane sugar is undoubtedly a luxury product in this era. Today, a bushel of rice only costs 10 cents, but a pound of sucrose is worth nearly 200 cents!

Ordinary people in Dacheng only earn a few thousand yuan a year in wages, and they don’t have much spare money at all. Even if they grind their teeth, they don’t dare to buy cane sugar once a year.

This shows how expensive sucrose is.

If Lu Ming really seizes this batch of cane sugar, Zhang Hengneng will be heartbroken.

Lu Ming interrupted his words and asked: “What’s the price of Dacheng cane sugar?”

“200 Wen per pound。”

“What about sugar?”

“One pound costs 1,600 yuan. ”

Zhang Heng is a businessman and knows the prices of these luxury go

is eight times that of sucrose!

Dacheng’s white sugar production technology cannot be produced quickly. A large amount of white sugar has resulted in a situation where the production of white sugar is very small and the price remains high.

Although the market price is 1,600 cents per pound, it is too scarce and even rich people may not be able to buy it. In fact, the price will only be more expensive. Zhang

Heng He wanted to resell white sugar, but white sugar was so precious. Even if he wanted to buy it, he couldn’t find a way. He was thinking about what Lu Ming wanted to do. Lu Ming immediately revealed his purpose:

“If I say I can make white sugar, will you? Acquisition? ”

Hearing this,

Zhang Heng was suddenly startled,

and then he was overjoyed. He couldn’t help but show excitement on his face: “What you said is true! If adults can really make white sugar, I want as much as I can! ”

The sky-high wealth is coming at a moment’s notice. Zhang Heng never expected that he would have such an opportunity here. It’s true that he can’t find it anywhere even if he breaks through iron shoes. It takes no effort at all. There is a

way for sugar!

“That’s it ! deal.

Lu Ming said: “From now on, you will transport the sugar cane for me, and I will make the white sugar. I will leave the produced white sugar to you to purchase. However, I will only accept barter for part of the payment. “。”

“No problem, absolutely no problem!

Zhang Heng said excitedly: “I wonder what you need, sir? “”

“Saltpeter, sulfur, flint, iron, oil paper, cotton, etc.。”

“No problem, sir, don’t worry, I will definitely take care of it! ”

That’s it.

The sugar matter is settled.

Lu Ming doesn’t have much trust in Zhang Heng. This is just a pure transaction. Both parties get what they need. Zhang Heng seeks money, while Lu Ming can obtain various resources.

Guang It was impossible to build up the technology tree with this meager mountain village. Lu Ming had no intention of returning to Chang’an Town, lest he would have to endure the plunder of the Beishuo people. Moreover, if he returned to Chang’an Town, the troops led by Lu Ming

would If he regains his reputation as a military commander, he will definitely be controlled and restricted by the Dacheng court, which will be extremely detrimental to his future plans and development. Therefore, in order to enhance everyone’s sense of belonging, Lu Ming ordered the village to be

renamed

Xin’an Town, the garrison of Xin’an Town is named the Wuwei Army, and its Guards are called the Guards.

It is indeed a bit small to call it an army with hundreds of people, but it won’t be long before Lu Ming estimates that the Wuwei Army will be Thousands of people were attracted.

By then, the name would be worthy of the name.

A few days later,

Zhang Heng left Xin’an Town with his caravan, and Lu Ming ordered people to escort them out. He also specifically explained: “This time the Beishuo people have offended the Dacheng border. , there will definitely be many refugees. If found, try to take them back to Xinan Town。”

“I understand the humble position! ”

Sure enough.

After the Wuwei Army escorted Zhang Heng away, they brought hundreds of civilians back to Xin’an Town on their way back. Many of them were craftsmen. They were

skilled elders.

Most importantly, the Wuwei Army led them There was also a blacksmith among the people who came back, and he was a man who was familiar with mineral vein exploration technology!

Then,

under Lu Ming’s arrangement, the blacksmith took several original blacksmiths and apprentices from Xin’an Town and went into the mountains. Among them, if you can find mineral veins, it will be great.

While acquiring resources from outside, Lu Ming is also thinking of ways to be self-sufficient. If not, not many merchants would dare to run away if a war breaks out one day. Come and deliver to you.
