Lord of the People: I rely on cheating for hegemony

Chapter 1425 New Weapon
On the morning of September 14, 9, Midway Twin Islands was sunny, cloudless and windless. Accompanied by the director of the Firearms Research Institute and seven senior researchers from the Firearms Research Institute, Qu Mao and Kong Ming came to the Firearms Research Institute. The testing site of the institute.

Since the upgrade of Yidi's territory and the upgrade of the lord's hut also increased the size of the twin islands in the middle of the road, the test site of the Firearms Research Institute has also expanded to a larger area.

When Qu Mao came to the test shooting site, he soon saw a machine gun about 1.5 meters long with a lengthened and widened ammunition chain at the rear end. However, the barrel of this machine gun was directly erected on the sandbag, and there was no design or Barrel mounts for machine guns were produced.

Following the order of the director of the Firearms Research Institute, three Firearms Army soldiers walked up to the machine gun. One Firearms Army soldier lay on the ground, put the handle of the machine gun on his shoulder, held the butt of the gun with one hand, and pressed the gun with the other. on the trigger.

The other two firearms soldiers squatted on both sides of the firearms soldier in charge of shooting, one on the left and the other on the right.

"Shoot!" The director of the Firearms Institute shouted calmly.

"Da da da!", "Da da da!", "Da da da!" The crisp machine gun sounded, but Qu Mao's brows were tightly frowned, which was too different from the machine guns in another world in Qu Mao's impression. There are big differences, one is that the rate of fire is too slow, the other is that the shooting posture is too awkward, and the other is that it can only do three bursts, and there must be a pause of one or two seconds after the three bursts.

The director of the Firearms Research Institute was sensitive to the change in Qu Mao's expression, and hurriedly said: "My lord, this machine gun can indeed fire bullets in bursts, but the accuracy of the bullets has changed significantly, and the accuracy is not as high as before. , especially subsequent bursts of bullets.

Moreover, the recoil force is large, and the continuous recoil force requires higher physical fitness of the fighters; and at the same time, more fighters are required to operate. If there are no fighters on both sides to level the belt, it is easy to jam or mechanical failure. "

Qu Mao thought for a while and said: "In another world, machine guns are not used for precise shooting, but for fire suppression.

When the firepower is suppressed, few soldiers use machine guns to shoot flat. They often tilt upward at a certain angle, and then use the high-speed rate of fire to quickly lay out a bullet coverage area within a certain range, and use the free fall of the bullet to block the battlefield within a certain area. As a result, the enemy did not dare to charge from that area easily.

Our Firearms Research Institute has produced such a machine gun so quickly, which is already a very good achievement. Of course, this machine gun still has a lot of room for optimization.

The rate of fire of three consecutive hits is difficult to form the fire suppression effect I described, of course, a barrel bracket can be designed in front of the barrel to enhance the stability of shooting..."

While commenting, Qu Mao took out a paper and a pen, stood on the test firing site, and drew a schematic diagram of the machine gun barrel bracket for the director of the Firearms Research Institute while introducing.

Kong Ming shook the goose feather fan, folded the schematic diagram drawn by Qu Mao, handed it to the director of the Firearms Research Institute, and said, "Director, take your master's design drawing, and go back and organize relevant researchers to study it carefully." Then Kong Ming turned to Qu Mao said, "My lord, our time is limited, why don't we look at other weapons?"

Qu Mao nodded and signaled the director of the Firearms Research Institute to demonstrate other weapons.

Under the signal of the Firearms Research Institute, a soldier of the Firearms Army came out carrying a firearm similar to a rear-loading flintlock. Compared with the rear-loading flintlock, the trigger position of the firearm carried by this soldier appeared to be wider.

In front of Qu Mao and Kong Ming, the soldier of the firearms army stuck a metal clip containing 20 bullets in front of the trigger of the firearm, then pulled the bolt, and put the firearm on his shoulder with one hand. Holding the barrel of the gun, the other hand is holding the trigger, closing one eye and starting to aim.

"Shoot!" Seeing that the Firearms Army soldiers were ready, the director of the Firearms Research Institute immediately ordered.

"Da da!", "Da da!", "Da da!"... There were crisp gunshots, basically two bursts, and then the firearms soldiers would wait for the barrel raised by the recoil to fall back to the ground. Aim at the position before continuing to shoot.

Hearing this voice, Qu Mao nodded with satisfaction. Except that the burst speed of this submachine gun was not fast enough, the other submachine guns were not much different from the submachine guns in another world.

After a magazine was finished, the firearms soldier pulled the bolt again, retracted the empty magazine, and stuffed it into the front of his tactical vest.

Qu Mao nodded and said: "Well, the performance of the submachine gun is already very good, we can train the production staff of the logistics department as soon as possible and enter the mass production stage.

Of course, at the end of the submachine gun in another world, pulling the trigger can instantly pour out all 20 rounds of bullets, and there are also single-shot and burst shooting modes to choose from. "

The director of the Firearms Research Institute said: "My lord, my subordinates will organize researchers to further optimize and improve this submachine gun in the future. Please rest assured, my subordinates will also notify Master Xuande of the Logistics Department to send skilled workers to the Firearms Research Institute to learn the production process. .

My lord, please move over here, let's take a look at the little... Your new weapon, my lord, is called a mortar. "

Led by the director of the Firearms Research Institute, Qu Mao and Kong Ming came to another open space in the testing site of the Firearms Research Institute. In this open space, a few simple sandbags were piled together, leaning against these sandbags There was a bare metal cannon barrel. "

Qu Mao asked in astonishment: "That's it? Is this the mortar you made?"

The director of the Firearms Research Institute nodded and waved, and two Firearms Army soldiers walked over holding an olive-shaped shell about 20 centimeters in size.

A soldier of the Firearms Army put his foot against the bottom of the gun barrel, tilted the barrel slightly, and another soldier of the Firearms Army gently pointed the tail of the shell at the barrel, and then loosened his hand, and the shell fell first. Then there was a "bang", and the shell ejected from the barrel again.

At a distance of less than 100 meters, the shell hit the ground, and then exploded with huge sparks.

Qu Mao's eyes lit up, and he said, "The appearance is not impressive, but the effect is not bad!"

Kong Ming also said: "Well, this artillery is more convenient to carry. It uses flowering ammunition, and its lethality is not small."

The director of the Firearms Research Institute said: "Masters, mortars do have many benefits, but they are a bit laborious to use to attack buildings, and unless they are very experienced fighters, it is difficult to shoot accurately."

Qu Mao thought for a while, then took out the paper and pen again and explained the principles of the mortar's bracket and targeting system while drawing a schematic diagram.

The director of the Firearms Research Institute immediately took out a pen and paper to record, and a test firing experiment of a new weapon turned into an academic seminar in an instant.
