Chapter 73 The test bullets were slightly different
Chang Xiao nodded slightly. His cheap aunt finally made time to see him. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for in the capital. Chang Xiao was not surprised.
Chang Xiao has almost no impression of this aunt. Obviously Mr. Chang and this aunt don't have much interaction. He only knows that this aunt is not too old now and is more than 20 years younger than his father Chang Youzhang.
He now looks like he is in his early twenties, barely a few years older than Chang Xiao.
Chang Sheng lowered his voice and said, "The emperor may be there by then."
Chang Xiao said oh subconsciously, and then turned his head sharply to look at Chang Sheng.
Chang Sheng nodded and said with uncontrollable excitement: "I don't know how my aunt used her strength. Anyway, she is going to hold a small family banquet in the palace, and the emperor will also go there. After all, you are also his.
Nephew, I'm not exactly an outsider. Young master, this is not only an honor, but also a great opportunity." Chang Sheng's voice trembled a little after he said it.
Chang Xiao's mind was a little confused. After sorting it out, he finally understood that if nothing else happened, he would see Chongzhen!
Chang Sheng was not surprised by Chang Xiao's confused expression. If he suddenly knew that he was going to see the emperor, he might not even be able to sit on the stool and would slip to the ground.
But he didn't know that what Chang Xiao was thinking about at this moment was the possibility of entering the palace with a revolver and killing the emperor with one shot, and then taking over the throne. If he knew about it, don't tell him and slipped to the ground, could he?
Every time I get up, I talk about it.
This thought just turned around in Chang Xiao's mind and stopped. Chang Xiao understood that this was just a fantasy. Even if he came back with a team of special forces and successfully killed Chongzhen and took control of the palace, he would not be able to sit on the throne. Things
It's not that simple.
Conspiracy to usurp the throne has always been a highly intelligent and technical job. Counting one by one from ancient times to the present, there are only a dozen or twenty successful examples. After these ten or twenty successful examples,
, there are thousands of losers who were crushed to pieces, and corpses everywhere whose families were confiscated and their families exterminated.
Killing the emperor may not be a big problem for Chang Xiao who has a gun. No matter how tight the security is, he always has a way to bring something unknown to anyone into the palace. But after killing the emperor
What? I'm afraid that I will be shattered into pieces, and not even the entire Chang family will be left alive.
After Chang Xiao abandoned this idea, which was completely illogical and had no possibility of practice, he said: "What should I pay attention to when meeting the emperor?"
Chang Sheng said with some shame: "I have never seen the current Holy Master. I know the three bows and nine kowtows in the play, but I don't know the specific etiquette. But when you enter the palace, your father-in-law will teach you carefully. I guess my aunt will not know how to call you.
Young Master, you have made a fool of yourself!"
Chang Xiao nodded and asked a lot about Emperor Chongzhen, such as his personality and preferences. Chang Xiao’s understanding of Chongzhen was limited to the fact that no one knew about him hanging in Meishan Mountain, and now people
Chang Xiao didn't know anything about Chongzhen that everyone knew. This was one of Chang Xiao's biggest worries.
After a detailed discussion, Chang Sheng said again: "Sir, my aunt has sent a message, and she may talk about some topics about military preparation. Sir, you must be prepared, after all, my aunt wants to send you into the army next.
You must have had some experience with the Emperor, but if the Emperor asks about it and you know nothing about it, it may be a big obstacle to your future!"
Chang Xiao nodded. Although he had been a soldier and had no shortage of military knowledge, he also decided to review the art of war and strategy.
Chang Xiao is an ambitious man. What he lacks most now is his background. He knows that he is in a disadvantageous position. It is definitely impossible to take the imperial examination. If he wants to have an official status, he can only join the army and gain military merit.
There is no doubt that meeting Chongzhen is the most convenient shortcut. Chang Xiao does not intend to let go of this opportunity. Although he also has the intention to sit on the throne in his heart and has no respect for the emperor, this does not prevent him from making good preparations and sincerely
attitude to see Chongzhen.
Chang Sheng told Chang Xiao a few more words, and then he saw Chang Xiao's haggard expression at this time, and quickly persuaded Chang Xiao to pay more attention to his health. He couldn't look like this when he saw the emperor.
Chang Sheng saw that the persuasion had no effect. Chang Xiao didn't take it to heart at all, so he smiled worriedly and reminded: "Young Master, I am really worried at this time. I am not sure what the future is. Young Master, what is the future of the Chang family? Maybe
Just three days later."
Chang Xiao nodded and said: "Uncle, don't worry, I will make good preparations!"
After seeing off Chang Sheng, Chang Xiao did not go back to the study, but returned to the bedroom to take a good rest and recuperate his energy.
Now Chang Xiao is constantly using his true energy to bake gold and iron, which is equivalent to practicing asceticism. As his true energy becomes more and more abundant, he has less and less time to rest. No matter how tired he is, he only needs to eat and drink enough to rest for three days.
You will feel energetic within an hour.
Then Chang Xiao left the city with a cloth bag, alone, without any servants.
Manager Lin and Wang Gui originally wanted to go with them, but Chang Xiao rebuffed them. As a joke, Chang Xiao wanted to test the gun, but of course he couldn't bring anyone with him.
Chang Xiao finally made three more bullets, bringing a total of five. He also brought an extra barrel, which can be replaced once the barrel is broken. The durability of the remaining parts should be enough to withstand the impact of four or five rounds of bullets.
.
Chang Xiao rode out of the capital alone, found a ravine and climbed into it.
It is really easy to find a deserted mountain with no one around these days. Chang Xiao often feels that if he kills a lot of people in this era, he can really do it without anyone noticing. There are no cameras all over the city.
, the barren mountains and ridges are also suitable for disposing of corpses. If you throw them away casually, they may be eaten into a pile of bones by some wild beast the next day.
Chang Xiao sat on the ground and pieced together the various components of the rifle one by one. The length of the gun was nearly 80 centimeters, the barrel was very long, and the butt was made of pear wood. It looked weird. Chang Xiao was indeed a person with no sense of beauty.
, he pays more attention to practicality, so if this gun was taken to the previous life, it would definitely be regarded as a large and ugly toy.
Chang Xiao used his footsteps to measure the distance of 800 steps, which was about 600 meters. He pasted a piece of red paper on a stone, turned around and walked back.
Chang Xiao checked it carefully and put the bullet into the chamber. He was actually a little scared now, he was afraid of exploding the chamber.
He originally thought that he was extremely familiar with guns, but after doing it, he realized that there was a huge difference, just like an extraordinary painter is not necessarily a brush maker and paint maker. Chang Xiao used to be just a master of guns.
The performance of the gun is so familiar that he couldn't be more familiar with it, so he really doesn't have much confidence in what he has built now.
Chang Xiao took a deep breath, knelt on the ground, squinted his eyes slightly, hit the three-point line, and then pulled the trigger.
There was a loud bang, the ground shook slightly, the bullets flew out in a swirl, and a faint smell of gunpowder filled the air.
The stone six hundred meters away suddenly jumped and fell apart.
Chang Xiao hit the ground hard with his hand, and it was done. He quickly ran up to take a look, but he didn't hit the red paper in the middle. But this is not a problem. Firearms need to be adjusted repeatedly. The distance of 600 meters is not suitable for this gun.
It's really a bit reluctant.
Chang smiled and was satisfied with the power of the bullet. Half of this big stone was torn off. If it had been shot at a person, the limbs would have been crippled. If it had hit the head... the head would probably not be found.
Chang Xiao turned around and returned to the place where the gun was fired, and began to test the gun body. If the bullet can be fired, for Chang Xiao, it is already half the battle. If the gun body is not damaged and can continue to fire, then the other half has been won.
.
The huge impact force caused some divergence of the structure between the parts of the gun body. This is inevitable. The parts made by Chang Xiao using Zhenqi cannot be accurate to less than a millimeter, let alone fit the entire gun like a piece of iron. With this
Chang Xiao had already anticipated the problem.
The most damaged thing is the barrel. The power of the bullets of this sniper rifle is still a little too much. The barrel he made is a little unable to hold up, but firing another bullet should not be a big problem. It is made of this kind of steel tube.
Revolvers firing bullets with low chamber pressure will not have this problem.
Chang Xiao moved the red paper to a distance of four hundred meters. Within this distance, the accuracy of the gun made by Chang Xiao should be the most controllable.
Chang Xiao waited for the barrel of the gun to cool down, then loaded the black powder bullet again, continued to aim at the big stone, and pulled the trigger.
There was a metallic clang, and then there was no sound. It was a dud, which made Chang Xiao lose his luck for a long time. Dud bombs are also a major problem faced by Chang Xiao. Chang Xiao has now begun to think about how to use the talisman in the future.
To make bullets, the flame of the talisman is driven by true energy. If you can control its burning, it can still reach the power of gunpowder, maybe even stronger. The most important thing is that there will be no duds. Of course, the shortcomings are also obvious. It needs to be really
It is driven by Qi, unlike bullets that can be aimed and fired.
Chang Xiao tried firing two black powder bullets in succession, but the results were all duds. Then Chang Xiao slapped his head. Apparently the problem was with the gunpowder, not entirely with his craftsmanship. Manager Lin found him.
Gunpowder is not very effective.
Chang Xiao replaced the bullets made of yellow powder and pulled the trigger. Sure enough, a gunshot rang out and the boulder on the opposite side jumped again. This time, it hit the red paper.
Chang Xiao smiled slightly and looked at the gun body again. The rifling inside the barrel had been completely smoothed, and the barrel was considered completely scrapped.
This result is not surprising to Chang Xiao, and the parts of the gun body are also severely worn with each other. After all, the fit between each other is not enough. Under the huge impact of bullet firing, these parts collide and grind against each other, and this problem will naturally occur.
Chang Xiao originally brought an extra barrel and still has one bullet left, but for safety reasons he stopped testing it. The current result is considered the best.
Chang Xiao took apart the gun and packed it up before getting on his horse and leaving.
The servants of the Chang Mansion all knew that the young master was in a particularly good mood today, and everyone smiled when he saw him.
Later, everyone found out that it was the aunt in the palace who had spread the word that if she wanted to see her son, even the emperor might be there.
This is incredible. Being able to see the current Holy Emperor, the True Dragon Emperor, and maybe even have dinner with the Emperor. This is something that ordinary people dare not even think about. If the ordinary person is lucky enough to see the Emperor's toilet for three lifetimes,
You will brag about it for several years.
The emperor's favor is so great, and the Chang family's holy family will never fade away!
