Chapter 1268: Old Driver's Surprise, Iron Cannon

"I wonder, how will the lord plan to adapt it?"

Not far away, Takeda Katsura took a step forward and asked respectfully.

Takeda Katsurai's question represents the doubts of all the original old ministers of the Takeda family.

"Hehe! Don't worry about victory first. I have to ask someone first before I can answer how you adapt."

After Liu Shiba finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the old driver and laughed in a low voice:

"How many iron cannons have been modified or newly built in three months, and can fire fixed ammunition?"

When the old driver Tang Chen heard this, he couldn't help but laugh proudly and asked:

"Master, why don't you guess?"

Liu Shiba's eyes bulged and shouted loudly:

"You want to rebel? Fuck..."

After cursing, Liu Shiba thought about it carefully with his fingers and muttered:

"According to your experienced driver's personal ability, if you have complete tools, you can modify at least ten pieces a day based on the original iron cannon.

If you have newly forged iron cannons like Peruvian guns, there will be no more than three a day, but Noda Castle still has two or three thousand auxiliary soldiers to call you, so the number will be increased...

After capturing Noda Castle and defeating Tokugawa's 12,000-strong army, there were also a lot of iron cannons and gunpowder seized, so in terms of materials, you won't be too shabby, right?"

After muttering, Liu Shiba paused for a moment, but smiled strangely on his face, looked up at the old driver and said:

"I'm planning to give it a discount. The number of long-barrel iron cannons is definitely more than seven or eight thousand.

But according to your level as an old driver, I feel that it is far from that, right? Are there any surprises? For example, short guns, grenades, etc.?"

The old driver was stunned for a moment and said with a dry smile:

"After staying for a long time, you will understand me! Either don't do it. If you want to do it, you must do your best."

"I know you have made great contributions this time, okay? Don't tell me the main topic? I'm waiting..."

Liu Shiba was furious.

"Okay, okay!"

The old driver's face turned apart, became extremely serious, and said solemnly:

"The iron cannons I modified myself and the iron cannons I modified by the auxiliary soldiers have a total of more than 11,800.

But after careful inspection, the gun chamber failed to meet more than 3,000, so the only ones that could come in handy were 8,500 long-barrel iron cannons.”

The veteran driver's rigorous attitude towards technology made Liu Shiba amazed and said happily:

"Enough, enough!"

"Haha! Lord, don't be too happy too early, there is still..."

A hint of pride appeared in the old driver's eyes.

However, Liu Shiba understood the old thing's artificiality, deliberately made a sudden enlightenment look, and grinned:

"Oh? What else?"

Listening to Liu Shiba's conversation with the old driver, the group of important officials of the Takeda family stood tall behind him.

When I heard that the number of iron cannons that could be equipped with gunpowder was as high as 8,000, I was already dumbfounded...

But unexpectedly, the veteran driver has a follow-up?

The old driver narrowed his eyes, looked around at the countless anticipated eyes around him, and sneered:

"I'm so mean! I'll use more than 3,000 unqualified iron cannons, and re-forged three thousand short-handled handguns.

Although the shooting distance of these pistols is much shorter than that of the long spear, it is about one hundred steps, but it has a characteristic: it can fire four guns in a row with an iron shell."

"What? You tease me..."

Now, it was Liu Shiba's turn to be dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.

How could the handicraft workshop create an almost modern version of the revolver? How could this be possible?

"Haha! There is nothing impossible in the world, you can do it as long as you want to."

The old driver explained meaningfully, took out a small package from his arms, handed it to Liu Shiba cautiously, and added:

"This is a hand I specially created for you, eight consecutive shots of self-defense revolver, do you see if it fits your wish?"

"this?"

Liu Shiba was really surprised when he looked at the small pistol with black light in his hand.

He could tell at a glance that this was a revolver with a dot 38, and the material might be a bit rough.

However, the workmanship of this revolver is very fine, and the handle is also carved with traditional Chinese characters inlaid with small characters. Eight silver-shining shells can be clearly seen inside the turntable.

Silver light?

Seeing Liu Shiba's puzzled gaze, the old driver smiled faintly and said:

"The shell shell was originally made of brass, but you don't know that copper ore was a gold ore these days.
Chapter completed!
