"It's easy to say, how much do you want, spot or futures." Yang Fan agreed.
This thing was invented as an emergency during the last war.
This is not the direction of Yang Fan’s team training equipment in the future.
Five hundred gun barrels can be made in one day using Fatty Wu's mold. Currently, there are no damaged ones in the hands of the group trainer, and there are more than 36,000 new ones in the warehouse.
"Yang Jun, the more the better, we want ready stock. Please." The lady bowed and said.
"This kind of firearm has three different specifications. The full-size one is this kind of rifle, with a total length of 1.5 meters. With the spear head installed, it is 1.80 meters long. It is loaded with ten rounds and has an effective range of 30 meters." Yang Fan took it from the table at the shooting range. He picked up a rifle and showed it to them.
The wooden parts of this rifle are very beautiful and pleasing to the eye.
Song Yingxing translated in Japanese and explained the conversion of different length units.
"Meter is a unique length unit of our factory. The 1.8-meter-long gun head of this rifle is basically equal to your Japanese length unit of 1 meter."
Everyone showed a look of understanding.
At this time, Japan's weights and measures were very different from those of the Ming Dynasty. Song Yingxing gave Yang Fan a brief introduction:
1 mile = 3927.2 meters, approximately equal to 4000 meters. 1 mile = 36 towns. Inverse conversion: 1 kilometer is approximately equal to 0.2546 miles.
1 town = 109.09 meters, which is approximately equal to 109 meters or 110 meters. 1 town = 60 towns. Back conversion: 1 kilometer = 9.167 towns.
1 room = 1.8181666 meters, which is approximately equal to 1.82 or 1.8 meters. 1 room = 6.3 feet, reverse conversion: 1 meter = 0.55 rooms
1 foot = 28.89 centimeters, which is approximately equal to 29 centimeters or 30 centimeters. 1 foot = 10 inches, 1 inch = 2.889 centimeters.
1 inch = 10 minutes, 1 minute = 0.2889 centimeters. Inverse conversion: 1 cm = 0.346 inches.
Yang Fan nodded and said: "Give them a conversion table later. I find their algorithm troublesome." Song Yingxing nodded, of course, whoever has the patience to use theirs to explain it to them.
Then Yang Fan showed them the ability to quickly change the barrel.
These people were all shocked that there was such a saucy operation. The old retainer muttered that it would be terrible if he had five loaded gun barrels on his back.
Apparently the old guy planned to use this nine-knot repeating gun as a machine gun.
Yang Fan picked up another cavalry carbine from the table. It was only one meter long and introduced: "This one is only one meter long. It is loaded with five rounds and has the same range. It is for cavalry and is also suitable for use in narrow spaces such as street fighting."
Yang Fan picked up another firecracker with a pistol handle. The handle was located in the middle of the barrel, making it easier to control the center of gravity and hold it with one hand.
"This is called a handgun. It is only one-third of a meter long. It is loaded with three rounds. The effective range is 25 meters. The barrel is relatively short and can be hidden in clothes. This one is for officers."
After the demonstration, these people whispered for a while. Yang Fan's weapons have been tested in actual combat and fully considered the needs of the battlefield. They can be fired continuously at close range and can quickly change the barrel. In close combat, a long gun head can also be used as a bayonet. Basic considerations All kinds of needs that can be encountered on the battlefield.
It has been less than 30 years since Japan ended its civil war, and it is still very familiar with war. The length of Japanese swords is not as long as this rifle with a bayonet. Therefore, hand-to-hand combat also has advantages, and with rapid shooting at close range, it is difficult to say whether a sword-wielding samurai can charge forward.
Although the range is less than twenty kilometres, it is far lower than that of iron cannons and large barrels. But if it is equipped with a thick iron-clad wooden shield in front, it can still block the matchlock gun fire.
As long as you charge forward, you will have an overwhelming advantage.
Besides, this kind of weapon is invincible in close combat, and long-range weapons can be obtained after thinking about it.
If you use iron-clad shields, large barrels, iron cannons, and nine-section repeating guns to form a four-layer array. That would be really invincible in Japan. Use large barrels at long distances, iron cannons (Japanese matchlock guns) at medium distances, and nine-section repeating muskets at close ranges to hit their faces intensively.
The lead bullets fired by the enemy were blocked by the iron shields in the first row.
Perfect.
"Mr. Yang, we need all three types of iron cannons. We want them in stock." The lady said eagerly.
Yang Fan was a little surprised by their urgency. He pulled Song Yingxing and asked, "Don't they dislike shooting at such a short range? Even a bow and arrow can't do this."
"What the proprietor doesn't know is that the bows and arrows they use are called bamboo bows, and their effective range is barely thirty meters. Compared with our walking bows and mounted bows, they are rubbish. This fire portal gun can suppress it completely. As for the bird cannon and the big barrel, That one has a long range but the rate of fire is too slow. Ours can also change the barrel quickly. As long as you are willing to kill people and rush forward, you will win. They can't buy matchlock guns in China anyway."
Yang Fan immediately offered a very shady price.
"The rifles now cost 10 taels each, ten thousand taels of silver each, the carbine 10,000 taels of silver each, and the muskets only have 500 taels of silver each, with 30 rounds of special bullets bound in cowhide and silk. . There are currently three million rounds of ammunition. The total value is 351,500 taels."
Yang Fan's iron ore powder didn't cost much money. Including the cast barrel, which cost a little money for charcoal, labor, transportation and wood, the total cost was less than 30,000 taels.
"Yang Jun, the price is okay, but we require you to deliver the goods to Beitangkou, where we will load the ship. You need to coordinate the banknotes along the way." The lady said.
"This is no problem. Chaoguan guarantees that my boat will not be inspected and it can be safely delivered to Beitangkou."
Yang Fan didn't know that the price of Japanese iron cannons was extremely opaque and depended on the quality and workmanship as well as the supply and demand relationship at the time. They are shoddily made, the cheap ones only cost 120 Wen Daming copper coins, and the expensive small gun can be purchased for 70 coins.
The lady did not hesitate at all. Such a well-made iron cannon fired continuously. The price was very cost-effective. In her opinion, the face of Brother Xu Guangqi played a role.
The two parties quickly drew up the transaction documents and paid one hundred thousand taels of silver notes as a deposit.
Yang Fan sighed, this is a place where silver is produced, and the money is really generous.
After this big order was completed, Yang Fan was in a good mood and asked Xiang Yi to bring a wooden box made of red sandalwood. Yang Fan opened the box in front of these people.
The inside was covered with precious velvet, and the grooves were dug out just enough to fit a pair of small handguns and twenty rounds of fixed bullets wrapped in cowhide and silk.
Yang Fan took out a small pistol with a barrel only ten centimeters long but a double barrel. The pistol carried two fine flintlocks.
The barrel is made of copper-tin alloy and the gold-plated bolt has been finely polished and engraved with cloud and dragon patterns. It is shiny and can be seen by people. The handle is made of beech wood with beautiful wood grain.
This is a recently made experimental product, a small pistol with a flintlock engine.
The spring blades are made of spring steel from the shock-absorbing steel plates on the truck suspension, scraps collected by the idiots. The fire rate exceeds 98%. It far exceeds the 40-50% fire rate of many flintlock guns of this era.
"Madam, this flintlock gun is the latest product developed by our factory. It is a personal gift from me to you for your first visit. Please accept it." Yang Fan said solemnly.
"Hi! Thank you Mr. Yang for your generous gift." The lady was overjoyed. Such an exquisite and compact weapon captured her heart at once.
He couldn't put it down when he held it in his hand. After playing with it for a while, he asked with some shame: "Mr. Yang, can you teach me how to use this gun?"
Only then did Yang Fan realize that most Japanese in this era had never seen a flintlock gun. So he walked up to the lady, stood behind her, took one of her arms, raised his hand to the target, and put one finger on the trigger.
"Use your thumb, yes, like this, break open the hammer, break both of them." Yang Fan's voice came from behind, and his breath blew softly on her neck, which made Mrs. Masuda's skin itch. Thin goosebumps appeared on the skin, and the cheeks turned red.
"Turn your head, yes, so your eyes are facing the crosshair and target, don't move."
Mrs. Masuda has been a widow for three years. She was only fourteen when she married Masuda, who was already in his sixties at the time.
Today was the first time in three years that I had close contact with the opposite sex. This Yang Jun, who was younger than me, made me feel strange in my heart.
Yang Fan grabbed her hand and put her finger on the trigger. "Pull the trigger with your index finger, yes, pull the trigger."
boom! , there was a loud noise, the fire flashed, smoke sprayed out from the muzzle, maroon gunpowder, under the violent recoil, Mrs. Masuda's body trembled, her soft back lightly bumped into Yang Fan, wearing a mask with a mask fell down.
Yang Fan looked at that familiar face and thought, damn, isn't this my dream lover Fujiwara Xiangxiang?
