Chapter 261 Zhuge Liang's New Invention
Just as everyone was betting in the group, Shu had already launched a full-scale attack on Wu. In contrast, Sun Quan had completely lost the rationality he deserved.
Sun Ce is actively attacking their territory, because if Shu really attacked, then Sun Quan would be the eternal sinner of Wu.
In contrast, Zhuge Liang wanted to see Wu the most captured, because the Shu-Wu alliance was simply an alliance between interests. Lu Meng attacked Jingzhou, resulting in Guan Yu's defeat and death. Liu Bei's ambition was completely destroyed by their Wu...
"Your Majesty, do you believe Liang can completely defeat Wu State?" Zhuge Liang asked Liu Bei calmly with his feather fan.
Liu Bei was puzzled by the side but he didn't understand his words. He asked, "I believe it, why don't you believe it? But Kong Ming, why did you suddenly ask this?"
Zhuge Liang now wants to conquer Eastern Wu more than everyone else. He pointed to the map in front of him and said, "Your Majesty, don't you feel heartbroken when General Guan died in Maicheng?"
Speaking of this, Liu Bei did hate Sun Quan's conspiracies and tricks, and actually colluded with Wei to send troops to raid Jingzhou. He originally planned to divide the world into three parts and freed up Jingzhou as a base for attacking the Central Plains, but because of Wu's intervention, Jingzhou became a land of fall.
As a result, the subsequent Northern Expeditions all went out of Hanzhong to the north, walking on cliffs and rugged valleys. How many soldiers from Shu were damaged in the Qishan Mountains in front of them?
Although Wei State is abominable, what is even more hateful is the dishonestness of being an ally. If there was no alliance at the beginning, it would be okay. But if you stabbed the knife in the back as an ally, don’t blame our subordinates for showing mercy.
"Kong Ming, what do you want?" Liu Bei asked, raised his eyebrows.
Zhuge Liang began to fiddle with the pistol placed on the table. During this period, he and his wife Huang Yueying have been researching and creating some enhanced weapons similar to muskets.
It also combines the continuous firing performance of the Yuanrong crossbow, allowing the musket to exert its power in combat with the Yuanrong crossbow. In this way, it can not only suppress the charge of the enemy infantry, but also resist the impact of the enemy cavalry.
"If this batch of equipment is put into our army's equipment in large quantities, our combat effectiveness will be invincible." Zhuge Liang said to Liu Bei with certainty.
Soon, Zhuge Liang's son Zhuge Zhan came to Liu Bei, and he ordered people to carry two boxes of improved muskets over.
"Father, Your Majesty, please see."
Liu Bei walked up and Zhuge Liang ordered others to pry open the box, and the musket that was polished very delicately appeared in front of everyone.
After picking up a musket, Liu Bei held the musket and aimed at the outside of the palace. He looked at the basic structure of the musket. If Feng Hao was here, he would probably jump up with joy.
Because if this musket has to be said seriously and rigorously, it basically meets the standards of modern semi-automatic rifles.
However, the ammunition of this musket only uses ancient ammunition, and is still loaded with black gunpowder, which is still somewhat inferior to modern gunpowder.
"Come on, try the weapon newly developed by Kong Ming."
Immediately afterwards, Liu Bei brought some people to the outside of the palace and found some targets from the warehouse. He wanted to try the attack and penetration power of this musket, so as not to have enough firepower on the battlefield, and even worse than the powerful crossbow.
Zhuge Zhan took five targets and stood a hundred meters away from them. After standing on the target, Zhuge Zhan made aside and signaled that the target had been placed a hundred meters away and could shoot.
"Try it..." Liu Bei raised his musket and aimed at the third target in the middle.
Before raising the fire gun, Liu Bei pulled the bolt under the guidance of Zhuge Liang, and the bullet casing was designed as a bullet casing linked to the rifle. In this way, when shooting, after one projectile was shot, the second projectile was automatically loaded, and there was no need to pull the bolt to load it.
Bang--
With just one sound, Liu Bei pulled the trigger, and this shot shocked Liu Bei to take a step back. Why is the power of this musket so powerful?
Zhuge Liang quickly supported Liu Bei. He really didn't consider the recoil issue. He just thought about how to strengthen the firepower, but ignored the recoil issue. You should know that if a soldier is not strong, he may be damaged by the recoil recoil recoil force.
The projectile easily hit the target, and it took only two breaths throughout the whole process. After Zhuge Zhan arrived at the target in the middle, he signaled Liu Bei and the others to say that he had hit the target.
"Your Majesty, although this musket is powerful, I believe you felt it just now. The recoil is too great. Liang only considered the power, but ignored the recoil." Zhuge Liang actually wanted to put this big killer into the battlefield, but now the recoil has become the most fatal problem, so hesitated whether to put it into the battlefield.
After thinking for a while, Liu Bei nodded. He also planned to make this killer a nightmare for Wu. Therefore, the recoil of this killer should not be changed for the time being. All of these weapons are placed in the front-line army. No one except the strong men are allowed to equip this weapon.
With such rigid regulations, the Shu army invested in this improved musket in all directions, and Zhuge Liang gave it a new name and prepared to fire a gun.
This gun has a backup magazine, and the word "Shi" means continuous shooting. The next shot after the shooting is to get the next shot, so it is named "Shi" gun.
In just seven days, Shu Kingdom's front line fully invested in this gun, and the archers have been replaced by this gun, which means that Shu Kingdom was the first country to replace archers with guns.
Sun Ce of Wu State has launched a counterattack against Sun Quan, but Lu Meng resisted too stubbornly. Zhou Yu broke through several times, but failed to break Lu Meng's attack.
The current situation is a forced one, and in the end, his brother-in-law Deng, can only convince him and let him go out of the city to surrender immediately. The victory or defeat of this battle has been decided, and Sun Quan will undoubtedly lose.
"It seems that Lu Meng still listened to his brother-in-law." Sun Ce sighed and said.
Zhou Yu sat in the tent and sighed, looking at the dark sky, when will this battle be finished?
"The situation is already very obvious now. Hey... if we don't use some relationships, we will be indifferent at all."
Now the Shu army has broken through several cities and is coming towards their capital. If Sun Quan’s disaster cannot be quelled, then Wu will be destroyed by Shu sooner or later.
