On the morning of April 11, more than 1,000 soldiers from the Thousand Houses Station in Jiangdongmen stood in formation under the leadership of the General Banner and the Small Banner of Jiangdongmen, standing on the school ground outside the Thousand Houses Station. Today, Yang Feng will formally form the team.

At the front of the team were ten hundred households, namely Gou Xingma, Yan Di, Guanghai, He Sheng, Xu Li, Cao Yingyu, Maoguang, Zhou Shi, Cui Yang, Li Zheng and others. These ten people were also wearing plate armor that Yang Feng brought from modern society, wearing eight-petal hats and helmets on their heads and a slashing sabre around their waists, and all looked at their subordinates with expressionless faces.

Qi Yan, who was the governor next to the team, led more than a dozen military and legal team members to stand beside the team and stared at the team with their waists. Once someone violated the military regulations, they would unceremoniously pull him out to enforce the military law.

On the school ground, Yang Feng was wearing a grass-green camouflage training uniform, and outside was wearing a plate armor that almost covered his body. He also wore an eight-petal hat and helmet on his head and a huge slashing sabre around his waist. At first glance, a majestic feeling came to his face in an instant.

If outsiders saw it at this time, they would definitely be so surprised that they could not speak, because now all the soldiers on the school ground were covered with armor, and all of them were iron armor. These iron armor were composed of ten pieces of armor, including breast armor, shoulder guards, arms and belly armor, thighs and calves.

This armor was made by Yang Feng instructed the Minghu Steel Factory in modern society. Although the steel used by ordinary sergeants is all ordinary steel plates, even so compared with this era, these steel plates are equivalent to the level of refined steel. Yang Feng once conducted an experiment. It is difficult for ordinary arrows and swords and guns to cause damage to them. Only using heavy weapons such as maces and heavy axes can cause serious damage to them.

The reason why this armor is only 36 kilograms is so good is that these plate armors are made of fine steel. If they are made of cooked iron, it would not be able to achieve such an effect without 80 kilograms. The plate armor made of high-strength steel plates specially made for officers has stronger protection. However, it is also worth mentioning that the helmets of the soldiers are also different from those of the officers. Their helmets are the steel helmets bought by Yang Feng from modern society, which makes the school ground feel round at first glance.

When Geng Bingyi, Cao Yingmao and other officers who first saw the effects of these plate armors, they were almost scared when they saw the amazing protective power of these plate armors. In fact, let alone officers who had never experienced the battle formation, even Yang Daniu, who had just come from Liaodong to often fight with Manchu soldiers, was shocked and said bluntly that if the Liaodong army could have such powerful armored weapons, they would not have fewer deaths and injuries.

Of course, while feeling the amazing protection of these plate armors, many people were also secretly stumbled. Such armors with amazing protection cannot be purchased at the current price level without 100 taels of silver. When a thousand households buy more than 1,000 pairs of them, it costs more than 100,000 taels of silver to buy these armors alone. Such generous work shocked everyone.

In these teams, there is a small flag commander in every ten people. Each small flag has a red flag on its left arm as a certificate to command the entire team. Every five small flags are under the command of a general flag. Behind each general flag is a blue flag, and every two general flags form a hundred households. Next to each hundred household is a flag bearer holding a high red flag with one person standing.

After the entire army was lined up, under Yang Feng's order, dozens of logistics supplies soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms pushed the cart to the school ground. Under the orders of the officers, the soldiers lined up to start collecting their weapons.

Yang Feng assigned the organization of these people in this way. He assigned a spear to two hundred people as spear soldiers, and a shield and a sabre to two hundred people as sword and shield soldiers, a large shield to two hundred people as heavy shield soldiers, and the remaining four hundred people were assigned to flintlock muskets as weapons. In this way, the distribution of the troops was basically finalized.

Among these weapons, shields, sabers and large shields are easy to talk about, but the production of flintlock guns was really wrinkled. After placing an order, Yang Feng found Hangweihu of Minghu Steel Factory and planned to commission him to make a batch of front-mounted rifled guns, and explicitly stated that he was willing to pay a high price for it. Hangweihu was shocked when he heard about his request, and then shook his head helplessly and refused, saying that everything else was easy to say, but he had no way to make the rifle inside the barrel.

After hearing the answer from Hangweihu, Yang Feng was quite frustrated, and finally asked if he could make a batch of front-mounted smoothbore guns. For this reason, he was willing to pay 3,000 yuan per unit. Looking at Yang Feng's tempting smile and moving price, Hangweihu was shaken. Since he even made armor, sabers and spears for humans, it should be no big deal to build a few smoothbore guns now. As for whether Yang Feng would do evil to use these smoothbore guns, to be honest, Hangweihu had also been worried, but he felt relieved after thinking about it. It was still the same reason. Even Uncle Hei in Africa knows how to use AK47, and Yang Feng is not worse than Uncle Hei.

Five hundred front-mounted smoothbore guns were done in a few days. In fact, with the developed industrial capabilities of modern society, as long as you know the production process and principles, even a small workshop can create AK47, let alone this antique front-mounted smoothbore gun. The biggest difficulty in making a gun is how to carve the thread in the barrel, and the smoothbore gun does not have this difficulty.

Hangzhou Weihu Lake urgently summoned several senior technicians to start looking up information online, and finally decided to imitate the famous British-made brown bass flintlock rifle in the 18th century. With the efforts of several senior technicians, they successfully tried to produce this antique flintlock rifle that is the old man's level in just one week. After experiments, Yang Feng was surprised to find that this spun imitation product was actually better, more sturdy and durable than the original product, with a longer range and higher accuracy.

Yang Feng, who was overjoyed, took out a million in cash as a bonus and sent it to Hangweihu and several senior technicians who participated in the production. But what he didn't know was that Hangweihu, who got the money, did not have much sense of accomplishment. In his opinion, if he could not even surpass a bore gun that was of the ancestor level three hundred years ago, he, a master's student who graduated from mechanical manufacturing, could also jump off the building.

What surprised Hangweihu the most was that his steel factory made 1.5 million yuan by helping Yang Feng make this batch of bore guns. After leaving the cost, he made about one million yuan. This took him a week, plus the armor, weapons and other things he built for Yang Feng, and Hangweihu made at least 2.5 million yuan this week. This was almost equivalent to the original profit of four or five months for a small factory with less than one hundred people, but this time he only spent less than ten days.

It is well said in Capital Theory. When the profit reaches 300%, the capitalists are almost willing to trample on any law in the world. After seeing so many red banknotes this time, the belief that Hangweihu had originally insisted began to shake. I don’t know when he began to imagine how to make rifled guns and cannons...
