Chapter 812 Queen Zhangxi

Dai Zi!

Li Xiao muttered and searched for this name in his mind. He seemed to have a vague impression that he was exiled by Emperor Kangxi during the Kangxi Dynasty.

It was such an unlucky guy who built China's first alternative "machine gun". This explains it easily. Others couldn't tinker with the mg34, but he definitely tinkered with it. A genius' brain cannot be described by common sense.

Just like Kalashnikov, no one thought that a young boy could design the gun that killed the most people.

"Let's go out and have a look." Li Xiao was very interested and ordered the Xu brothers to walk out of the hut. Dai Zi followed behind with mg34 on his shoulders. After walking out of the door, he waved to the distance, and two people came running carrying mg34.

Apprentice holding ammunition box.

Not far away, Li Xiao raised his thumb and pointed at a tree about three hundred meters away. "That's your target. I want to know if you can break that tree."

That tree was bigger than a millstone, and it was more than two hundred meters away, so it was not easy to shoot it down.

Unexpectedly, Dai Zi nodded without hesitation, and without saying a word, he got down and set up the tripod. A boy who looked like an apprentice next to him also got down and stretched out the ammunition chain from the ammunition box.

Dai Zi took a deep breath, aimed at the tree pointed by Li Xiao, and pulled the trigger.

A sound of tearing linen was heard. Li Xiao closed his eyes and listened to the sound. This guy said that the rate of fire was 300 rounds per minute. He was definitely not talking about it. At least Li Xiao, who had studied radio service, couldn't hear the number.

.

He raised the telescope in his hand and saw sawdust flying from the tree in the distance. Green smoke was scattered along with the wood chips. It was certain that the impact point spread of the gun was very small.

Dai Zi opened one eye and closed the other, with a ferocious expression on his face, and the flesh on his cheeks kept shaking with the shooting.

A chain of 600 bullets was quickly ejected. The apprentice reached out to pull over another magazine box, then quickly put on his gloves and began to change the barrel. At this time, Dai Zi also put on his gloves and began to press the bullets.

After continuous firing, the temperature in the magazine was astonishing. If you didn't wear gloves, you would probably get burned.

Soon the sound of tearing linen was heard again, and no one knew how many bullets were fired, and the big tree pointed by Li Xiao collapsed suddenly.

Li Xiao opened the magazine and found that there were only a few bullets left in it. It was not easy to shoot off more than 500 bullets at this distance. The main reason was that the distance of more than 300 meters would make the bullets spread over a large area. Facts

The fact that these bullets can be used to break the tree under continuous shooting is enough to prove the ultra-high stability of this gun.

"Yeah! The gun is pretty good." Li Xiao nodded with satisfaction.

"What's the range?" Li Xiao suddenly remembered that he seemed to have overlooked an important parameter.

"Theoretically, you can hit 800 meters away, but if you want to shoot accurately, you have to be within 500 meters." Dai Zi was obviously still a little nervous when talking to Li Xiao.

"Five hundred meters!" Li Xiao nodded again. Five hundred meters is a very good burst shooting range. Things beyond five hundred meters are grenade launchers, and things beyond eight hundred meters are mortars.

On the tactical battlefield, each stage has corresponding weapons. As a general-purpose machine gun, Li Xiao will certainly be satisfied with this performance.

"I looked at your gun and found that many of the parts are machined parts. This not only wastes man-hours, but also wastes materials, thereby increasing the price of the entire gun.

Fighting consumes a lot of money, so we have to consider the cost. Don’t we have a stamping machine? If you can make these parts into stamped parts, this will not only effectively save costs, but also adapt to harsher environments.”

"Uh...! I understand, Commander!" Dai Zi did not expect that Li Xiao, the Commander-in-Chief, actually understood this kind of craftsmanship.

"Thank you, Commander!" Xu Ermo pushed Dai Zi from behind. Li Xiao's words meant that Li Xiao officially recognized this gun. It also meant that as long as this gun was improved according to Li Xiao's requirements, it would be

It entered the Liao Army's procurement list and became an official weapon of the Liao Army.

Being able to enable millions of Liao soldiers to fight with weapons designed and manufactured by themselves is a great affirmation for anyone who designs guns.

"Thank you, Marshal, for your support! Thank you, Marshal!" Dai Zi knelt down on the ground, banging his head on the ground with a "bang" and "bang" sound.

"Okay, go down with your gun. If it's really improved, come to me with a new gun." Genius needs a chance, and Li Xiao decided to give him this chance.

This genius is only seventeen years old and has many days ahead of him.

Dai Zi left with his companions and machine gun, and Li Xiao looked at Dai Zi's back with his hands behind his back.

"Let him be responsible for the research on firearms and artillery from now on. You have more things to do in the future. You have recently tinkered with some new things. Come with me to take a look. Come up with a charter and start mass production." Li

Xiao Xiao did not forget the purpose of coming to find the Xu brothers.

"Promise!" The Xu brothers bowed their heads and promised. They didn't know what new things the commander would come up with.

******************************************************************************

"Nice to meet you, Her Majesty the Queen!" Luzhu bowed to a woman wearing a luxurious sari.

Queen Zhangxi, a woman who became a queen by marrying an old man. Luzhu was very disdainful of this kind of woman. Especially when she saw this woman wearing a sari made of gold threads, this feeling became stronger.

When I came to Zhangxi Lvzhu, I saw skinny old people and children with big heads and big bellies. Her people were starving, but she still lived such a luxurious life.

Speaking of living a luxurious life, Lu Zhu felt that Li Xiao was more qualified than the woman in front of him. But more than once, Lu Zhu saw Li Xiao eating noodles with garlic cloves. Li Xiao had millions of tigers and wolves under his command. This

Women only have tens of thousands of armed peasants in their hands.

"Are you the special envoy from the Ming Dynasty? If I remember correctly, our country and your country are in the midst of a war. Many men have died in the battlefield, and the murderers are you." Queen Zhang Xi looked at her.

He glanced at Luzhu and was very interested in this woman who could speak fluent English.

The British have occupied India for many years. The nobles in India basically communicate with each other in English. Being able to speak English has become one of the signs of the nobles.

Unexpectedly, this woman from an enemy country could also speak English and speak it so fluently.

"Your Majesty the Queen! Ming Dynasty has never thought of becoming an enemy of the Indians. Ming Dynasty's enemy is the British. They attacked our Ming Dynasty's warships in Ming Dynasty and attacked our Ming Dynasty cities. They started the war, and we did nothing more.

It's just revenge.

I am very sorry for the casualties of the Indians, especially the casualties of the Zhangxi people. But these are all caused by the British and Wu Sangui. As you know, Wu Sangui is a traitor to the Ming Dynasty, and we must definitely capture him and bring him back to the Ming Dynasty for trial.

Therefore, it is actually the British and Wu Sangui who caused the Indian casualties. They regarded India as the front line against the Ming Dynasty, and used the flesh and blood of Indians to stop the Ming Dynasty from taking revenge on them. Her Majesty the Queen! You are being used as a gun.

Already."

"Haha!" Queen Zhang Xi sneered.

"This is what you said. I only know that we are an enemy country. I think... if I hand you over to Wu Sangui, he will be happy to talk to you about revenge." Queen Zhang Xi's eyes were cold and she looked at Lu Zhu like

He was looking at the prey in the trap.

"Of course you can hand me over to Wu Sangui, and maybe Wu Sangui will exempt you from some of the taxes in Zhangxi. But Her Majesty the Queen! You have to think clearly, if you hand me over to Wu Sangui, Zhangxi or the whole of India, you will only

Able to live in war and hardship.

Not only will you have to bear the wrath of the Ming Dynasty, but you will also have to be exploited by the British, generation after generation, year after year. Do you want your descendants to pay as much tax as you do to the British every year?

On the way here, I saw that the people of Zhangxi were starving, but they had to pay heavy taxes to the British. Your people are starving to death in large numbers. You don't know this, right?

It was easy to hand me over to Wu Sangui, but you personally destroyed the hopes of Zhang Xi and the Indians."

"If you hand you over to Wu Sangui, will Zhang Xi suffer revenge from the Ming Dynasty? As far as I know, Wu Sangui has just defeated the Ming army on the east coast."

"He defeated the Tamils, who were oppressed by him and had to resist. I believe you know better than me why the Tamils, who have always been moderate, took up guns to fight him. We, the Ming Dynasty, just provided them with

Just equipment.

If you are willing to stand up and lead the Indians to fight against Wu Sangui and the British, then you will be the future master of India."

Luzhu saw that when she finished saying this, Queen Zhang Xi's eyes brightened up. Sure enough, this woman's desire for power surpassed everything else. She just said that the people were starving. In her opinion,

It's no big deal. Those mud-legged people are always hungry anyway, and it doesn't matter if they stay hungry for a few more years.

"Master of India, haha! Even the most powerful Mughal dynasty did not unify the entire India..."

"Because the Mughal Dynasty did not get the support of our Ming Dynasty. Today's Ming Dynasty has surpassed India in all aspects of science and technology, military, industry and culture. If you have the support of our Ming Dynasty, you will definitely become the master of India." Luzhu.

He interrupted Queen Zhang Xi very rudely.

"But we, Zhang Xi, cannot compete with Wu Sangui in terms of strength." Queen Zhang Xi's tone was obviously relaxed.

"Zhang Xi's power alone cannot compete with Wu Sangui. However, we have contacted others and Sultan Tiep has agreed to join us."

"Are you talking about Sultan Tipu, the son of Sultan Haidar Ali of Karnataka?" Queen Zhangxi asked in surprise.

Tipu Sultan was good at equestrianism at the age of seven. After he became an adult, he took over the position of the old Sultan Haidar Ali and paid more attention to cavalry. In Karnataka, he trained an excellent cavalry. It is said that his cavalry came and went.

Like the wind, harvesting heads with a saber is like harvesting crops.

In the war against the Afghans, this cavalry single-handedly defeated the main force of the Afghans, killing them so hard that the Afghans never dared to set foot in Karnataka again for twenty years.

After this battle, Sultan Tiep was nicknamed the Cavalry Sultan. Unexpectedly, he would also fall to the Ming Dynasty.

"Yes, that's Tiepu, known as the Sultan of Iron Cavalry."

"If the Sultan of Iron Cavalry joins you, then I, Zhang Xi, can also join you. However..., you have to provide us, Zhang Xi, with weapons, ammunition and training. Of course, it is best to also provide...!"

"Our Ming Dynasty will provide you with everything you need, but there is no such thing as a free lunch. This is a famous proverb of our Ming Dynasty. If you want our Ming Dynasty to take action, you have to pay the price."

"What price?" Queen Zhang Xi frowned.

"Coal mines, iron mines, gold and silver mines, copper mines! The Lajia Nuer coal mine in Zhangxi and the iron mine in Akdana must be mined by the Ming Dynasty for fifty years. Fifty years later, these mineral deposits will

It's still yours. Of course, in order to thank Her Majesty the Queen for her love, we will give you 20% of the shares. I guarantee that your income from the shares will be greater than your current income.

Uh...! It should be noted that these profits are for Her Majesty the Queen, not for Zhang Xi or the Indian court." Women who love power are usually very greedy for money. The reason is very simple, she needs money and a lot of it.

Money comes to buy people.

A king who only asks people to work for free will not last long. A king who often pays people can keep his power forever. Queen Zhang Xi is a smart person, she knows this truth.

Sure enough, Queen Zhang Xi was very moved by Luzhu's plan. According to India's current strength, the mined mineral deposits had to be provided to Wu Sangui free of charge. The other party only paid a small amount of food.

Queen Zhang Xi had long been dissatisfied as she watched the gold and silver slip away from her home every day without getting any benefits for herself.

Daming's conditions are very tempting. He doesn't have to do anything, and he will get 20% of the income. And the 20% of the income is not for Zhang Xi, but for herself.

Luzhu could tell from the upturned corners of Queen Zhang Xi's mouth that she was very satisfied with this condition.

"What's your name?" Queen Zhang Xi stepped down from the throne and held Lv Zhu's hand enthusiastically, like an old friend she hadn't seen for many years.

"You can call me Luzhu, Your Majesty the Queen!" Luzhu didn't seem flattered, but accepted it all graciously.

"You are really God's messenger from India. Come, prepare the banquet, open the best wine and wine. I want to have lunch with the guests." Queen Zhang Xi turned to her personal maid and gave an order.

The maid agreed and walked out quickly. Almost at the same time, Lu Zhu discovered that the shadow behind the screen had also disappeared.

"Your Majesty, I will let you know that your choice is correct. In the future, this land will belong to you and your descendants. And Ming Dynasty will also become India's eternal friend. As long as India encounters difficulties again, Ming Dynasty will

Will lend a helping hand without reservation.

Because we are friends!"
