When Liu Yuanwai and others all sat down, Zhang Desen began to explain various things one by one through various materials. Of course, due to limited time, we can only briefly explain some of the main contents.
In the screening room on the spacecraft, Zhang Desen was like an expert who specialized in explaining various professional knowledge, explaining everything as clearly as possible and showing all the materials that could be screened.
It was a bit of a long process, which of course included a screening of the movie "Cosmic Hunt." This also took some time, and Zhang Desen also showed Liu Yuanwai and others the video of the humanoid creature taken by the drone that day and the video and audio recording of the first contact with Qian Yanei. Liu Yuanwai and others also Understand the seriousness of the situation at this time.
And when they learned that Qian Yanei and others had actually lost part of their memory, they all couldn't help but find it very funny.
When all this was over and it was almost dark, Liu Yuanwai said at this time:
"It seems that we have no chance, and the enemy is in chaos for their own reasons at this time, which is good. However, Dessen, can you guide our craftsmen to imitate some of your things? For example, this spaceship.”
Zhang Desen said with a headache:
"This is a big problem. Some things can't be copied just by having drawings. If anything can be copied at will, then when my motherland and other countries in the original universe get alien spacecraft, they can copy it. No. As for getting an alien spacecraft but can only get reference bit by bit, it will take a long time to copy some technology."
Then, Zhang Desen explained the problems that may be encountered during imitation as clearly and in detail as possible. Then, he took out the design drawings of the Brown Bess musket and some drawings of homemade hand grenades and explosive packs and gave them to Liu Yuanwai, asking Liu Yuanwai and the others to copy them first.
After reading the information about the gun, Liu Yuanwai felt like he had found a treasure and immediately accepted it.
And Zhang Desen did not expect that in order to prevent him from encountering an accident when he went to another universe, the various materials that the headquarters could make some simple weapons to supplement on the spot could be used in this way.
By the way, this brown bass musket originated from an arms development contract signed by the Royal Ordnance Bureau of the United Kingdom on September 15, 1714. In 1722, the first standard musket 'King's Pattern' was finally born. ...).
Its earliest mass-equipped Long Land Pattern (long land combat type) Type I musket, or P1730 musket (Pattern 1730 Musket), can also be called P1728 musket. Overall length: 62.5 inches Barrel length: 46 inches Caliber: .76 or so Weight: 9 pounds or so.
There is also a detail that needs to be paid attention to. The brass cap and purge of the brown bass musket are not always standard.
For example, before 60 years ago, the materials for its purges were often a mixed bag, including wood and steel, and the copper caps for the wood guards were sometimes missing (most of the time, they were missing). This shows that the standardization of early firearms production was still in the exploratory stage.
Its Type I musket has four bougie sleeves, and the gun body is very long. With the development of time, the length of the flintlock musket has been more or less appropriately reduced. The brown bass is here It was extremely thorough.
Its early model of carbine-type brown bass did not have copper guard caps and metal purge bars. Model 1756 long musket, this gun is the most complete model among the long brown basses, and the degree of standardization has been improved (such as steel bougie and copper cap).
In addition, materials were added to make the musket more durable (so the 1756 model is about 1 pound heavier than the previous version). This model was mainly used to fill the equipment gap caused by insufficient inventory, but there was no evidence of this during the Seven Years War. This musket was widely used and equipped most of the British troops stationed in North America before the American Revolution.
Of course, Liu Yuanwai also had some selfish motives. Because in this universe, this gun that has been eliminated for many years in Zhang Desen's original universe is a new type of gun that no one has developed yet. This makes Liu Yuanwai once his craftsmen successfully imitate it, his competitors will There will be even less advantages.
And now, Liu Yuanwai said to Zhang Desen:
"Desen, you are very good. Maybe you will play a decisive role in my future..."
When Liu Yuanwai said this, Zhang Desen would certainly be humble. Liu Yuanwai continued:
"But there is one thing I want to tell you, that is, after we looked at the information just now, I think it is possible for us to know your clone, which is your clone in our universe."
Zhang Desen was stunned and immediately said:
"So the members know my clone? Then what does my clone do? Does it also live in the Western Capital City?"
Liu Yuanwai immediately replied:
"Slow down, Dessen, please listen to me slowly..."
Afterwards, Liu Yuanwai slowly explained.
It turned out that when they heard about the strange-clothed hero before, they didn't feel familiar with him. They just wanted to recruit the strange-clothed hero into the house for their own use.
However, when Zhao Chengming was ordered by Yuanwai Liu to find Zhang Desen that night and killed the humanoid creature with Zhang Desen, the two had a conversation. And when Zhang Desen said his name, Zhao Chengming always felt that he had heard this name somewhere, but he just couldn't remember where.
Later, when Zhao Chengming came back to explain everything to Liu Yuanwai, Liu Yuanwai also felt that he had heard this name somewhere, but he didn't think much about it. Because for Liu Yuanwai, nothing is as important as recruiting more talents for his own use. This is what needs to be done most, so Zhao Chengming is asked to bring Zhang Desen into the government first.
Later, after Liu Yuanwai officially met Zhang Desen, he even felt that he had seen Zhang Desen somewhere, but he still couldn't remember it, so he just asked Zhao Chengming and others to find out slowly. Today, after reading this information, Liu Yuanwai suddenly connected his familiarity with Zhang Desen's clone, which is why he came up with his previous statement.
After Liu Yuanwai finished his explanation, he said to Zhang Desen:
"Desen, don't worry about these clones for now. You first need to prepare for tomorrow's general competition. You know, as a general, you have to prove your ability. And tomorrow, during the competition, that Hu Tu You have seen it too, as long as you defeat him, you will definitely be able to establish prestige in the house, and I will have one less thing to worry about."
Zhang Desen was stunned and immediately asked:
"What's wrong with that Hu Tu?"
Liu Yuanwai said:
"You don't have to ask so many questions. As long as you defeat him tomorrow, I will ask Zhao Chengming to explain it to you in detail. Do you understand?"
After hearing this, Zhang Desen immediately replied:
"clear!"
…
And in the morning of the next day, the general competition really began. Zhang Desen put on his special team's uniform, covered it with Liu's general uniform, and went directly to the competition ground to find Zhao Chengming. At this time, in Liu's mansion, everyone was competing in shooting arrows with bows and crossbows, because this was the first part of the competition. Zhang Desen was also among them. Zhang Desen had also practiced crossbow shooting before.
Because although crossbows are cold weapons, they are still indispensable, including special forces. The reasons are as follows:
First of all, the shooting accuracy of crossbows is very good. Modern bows and arrows are not the ancient ones. They are specially made. They all have sights equipped with electronic equipment, which is no longer the ancient ones. That kind of crossbow aims with the naked eye.
Therefore, its shooting accuracy is very high, far exceeding that of ordinary firearms, and even some sniper rifles may not be as useful as it. Therefore, it is more appropriate to use bows and arrows than guns in some special occasions, such as rescuing hostages.
The second reason is the occasion of use. In most cases, bows and arrows are naturally incomparable with guns. However, there are some places, such as underwater, where ordinary guns are almost useless. After all, the resistance of water is very large. Bullets fired from the barrel often lose their effect due to the resistance of water. , but bows and arrows will become different. This kind of thin and long arrows still has powerful lethality under water.
In addition, there are places where fire must not be seen, such as oil depots and arsenals, where fire must not be seen. If using guns in these places is an absolute act of seeking death, then of course you can only ask for bows and crossbows. Because of this, some missile units and other security forces are now equipped with bows and arrows for defense tasks.
The third reason is of course that crossbows are relatively quiet. The noise produced by modern crossbows is very small, even smaller than some guns equipped with silencers. This is very beneficial to reducing the risk of being discovered when performing some infiltration and other tasks, and can perform tasks that are not possible with guns. method to achieve the desired effect.
Although Zhang Desen is indeed using an ancient crossbow, he is equally comfortable with it.
At this time, Zhang Desen shot three arrows at the bull's-eye, and all the arrows hit the bull's-eye. Liu Yuanwai's father and daughter and everyone watching cheered in unison. While everyone was cheering for Zhang Desen, housekeeper Liu Man sent the first batch of flying knives and flying needles made for Zhang Desen. Everyone looked at these things and admired them. Of course, the next step was for Zhang Desen to perform.
Zhang Desen also responded to everyone's request and performed a flying knife performance first. Zhang Desen pulled out three flying knives at the same time and flew towards the target. The three flying knives were neatly lined up and hit the bullseye at the same time. The distance between the flying knives was also equal. Everyone cheered in unison again.
The flying needle demonstration was equally accurate. And just when everyone was cheering for Zhang Desen at the same time. Someone came and quietly reported to Liu Yuanwai that the streets were full of notices issued by Prime Minister Zhang, saying that they were looking for his son who was thought to be dead a year ago, and whoever found him would be rewarded heavily.
Just when Liu Yuanwai wanted to express his gratitude to Prime Minister Zhang, the messenger said something that surprised Liu Yuanwai:
"The notice said that people from the Prime Minister's Mansion saw that Young Master Zhang was still alive, but he seemed to have lost his memory, and that Young Master's name was... Zhang Desen."
Liu Yuanwai was startled and immediately turned his attention to Zhang Desen. However, he quickly calmed down and asked his confidant to tell Zhao Chengming the news quietly. He then pretended that nothing had happened and continued with the general competition.
At the same time, Hu Tu, the deputy leader of the generals of the Liu family who came to the competition ground, saw that Zhang Desen's ability display was repeatedly applauded by everyone. He couldn't help but became furious. He walked to Zhang Desen and shouted angrily:
"Who do you think you are? If you are really capable, do you dare to come and compare with me?"
For a moment, everyone's attention was attracted.
