Chapter 27 The Power of Firearms
Following the system's thoughtful prompts, Zhao Chen instantly mastered how to split the storage card.
He stretched out his index finger and scratched the number at the bottom of the card, and the card was divided into two identical cards, except that one had 1 written at the bottom and the other had 2999.
Handing the extra card to Yang Guo, Zhao Chen casually broke the card.
Then, a flash of light flashed, the disconnected card disappeared, and an object made of wood and steel appeared in Zhao Chen's hand. The shape was still very strange (Guo Jing's perspective).
What is this? (Voices of Guo Jing, Huang Rong and others)
Is this the Type 38 rifle that the shop owner said? (Yang Guo’s heartfelt voice)
Although the psychological activities were extremely complex, no one spoke, and the atmosphere suddenly fell silent.
Their silent behavior also made Zhao Chen a little embarrassed. Hey, at least someone should speak. If no one speaks first, how can I pick up the conversation and pretend to be a slap in the face?
However, Zhao Chen didn't speak, Guo Jing and others also didn't speak. A group of people stared at each other and remained silent for a while!
"Shopkeeper, is this the gun you are talking about? But this gun has neither a tip nor an edge. How can it kill the enemy?"
In the end, Yang Guo broke the silence, with a tangled look on his face. He regretted that he had spent so many dimensional coins in exchange for a pile of wood and iron lumps?
Someone finally spoke, and they thought they wanted me to speak first!
Zhao Chen, who breathed a sigh of relief, held the handle with one hand and explained: "This gun is different from the long gun you think of. It is a musket. In terms of power, it only takes a few shots to take away a person." Human life! This is”
Zhao Chen, who originally wanted to show off his knowledge of history, couldn't help but give up the idea after seeing pairs of confused eyes.
Alas, let’s be direct and let the facts speak for themselves!
"Forget it, let's show you its power first. Master Guo, I wonder if there is an open space and soldiers' armor in the house?"
After confirming that there were bullets in the gun, Zhao Chen turned to look at Guo Jing.
Guo Jing nodded. Although his residence was not too big, he still had a yard.
But if it's iron armor
"Rong'er, there is another armor in my room. Go get it and use it." After thinking about it carefully, Guo Jing remembered his own armor and asked Huang Rong to get it.
After the armor was set up in the courtyard, everyone arrived.
Zhao Chen stood with a rifle about ten meters away from the armor. It wasn't that he didn't want to stand farther away, but the yard was almost this big, and even if he wanted to stand farther away, he couldn't.
Then, with everyone watching, Zhao Chen pulled the trigger, and the crisp sound of a gunshot appeared instantly.
Because the people present were all experts, with their extraordinary eyesight, they could easily see a circular gap in the hanging armor.
This shocked them, because they didn't see anything appear at all, they just heard a gunshot, and then the armor broke!
Of course, not everyone failed to notice that Guo Jing and Jiumozhi, the strongest among them, could still see some bullet trajectories.
Snapped! Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!
There were four more gunshots, and after all five bullets in the gun were fired, Zhao Chen stopped and looked at Guo Jing and others.
"Do you think it's powerful?"
The servants were ordered to bring the armor over, and everyone took a closer look at the gaps and gasped.
This thing is like this when it hits iron armor, but what if it hits a human body?
When they thought of this, they couldn't help but feel afraid, fearing that Zhao Chen would shoot them too.
At this time, Guo Jing took his armor, touched the crack on it, and turned to look at Zhao Chen: "The power of this musket is indeed amazing. Although my armor is not very good, it is difficult for ordinary swords to deal with it." It causes damage, but now if someone were to use this weapon to sneak attack me on the battlefield."
Guo Jing shook his head and fell silent before he finished speaking, but the others already understood the meaning.
Even top experts like Guo Daxia say this, so what if we meet?
Except for Jiumozhi, everyone felt chills in their hearts. They could be sure that based on their flesh and blood alone, if they encountered such a sneak attack, they would not die but would be seriously injured!
There is only one consequence for being seriously injured on the battlefield, and that is death!
After pondering for a while, Huang Rong looked at Zhao Chen and said in a deep voice: "Shopkeeper, I wonder how many muskets there are? And I think the consumption of these muskets is not a small amount, so I don't know."
"You can rest assured on this. This kind of gun has three thousand handles and hundreds of thousands of bullets. Although it is not enough for you to completely destroy Mongolia, it is still very easy to repel their attack!"
After turning the gun in his hand into a card and handing it to Huang Rong, Zhao Chen kept the smile on his face and replied.
These words could not help but make Guo Jing and others take a breath, three thousand handles!
With this number of muskets, let alone them, they might not be able to stop them even if they bring in the five most powerful people in the world!
In fact, this is normal. The martial arts world of the metal lineage is not an overly powerful world, and martial arts is not like the type in Hong Kong comics that can easily break mountains and rocks and destroy the world.
Even those five-level experts who stand at the top of the world do not dare to collide head-on into a large-scale army.
Once they are under siege by the army, even if they can rely on their strong martial arts to resist one or two, over time, they may end up dying of exhaustion.
This is based on the situation that the opponent does not use bows and arrows. If the opponent fires thousands of arrows at once, even if they have three heads and six arms, they can only be pierced by thousands of arrows and die!
"That's great. Just form a musket team among the soldiers in the city. Even if the Tartars have great abilities, they will never be able to break through Xiangyang!"
Comparing the power of firearms, Huang Rong's eyes lit up. She thought of the powerful role of this weapon in war!
Only a small team of hundreds of people can produce terrifying lethality. This inspired her and she instantly came up with many ways to fight the enemy.
However, unlike Huang Rong, Guo Jing was a little worried. Once such a weapon was leaked, I'm afraid it would be in the martial arts world. I'm afraid the whole world will boil!
And Yang Guo also had this idea. From the demonstration just now, he was also very clear about the power of this musket. The decades of hard training of martial arts masters might be gone in a few shots.
If this weapon falls into the hands of others, especially Mongolia, Xiangyang will be in trouble.
"Shopkeeper"
Before Guo Jing could speak, a burst of urgent horn sounded from afar, attracting everyone to look towards the tower.
Without bothering to ask anything else, Guo Jing bowed to Zhao Chen and said, "The Tartars are coming fiercely, please forgive me for not being able to accompany you."
After that, Guo Jing flew away directly.
It's not that he is impolite, but Guo Jing grew up in Mongolia since he was a child, and he is very familiar with these horn sounds. In addition, he has been stationed in Xiangyang for 30 years. Basically, he can distinguish the information from the horn sounded in Mongolia.
And the urgent horn sound just heard is clearly a symbol of a large-scale attack!
So Guo Jing didn't care about anything else and rushed to the tower immediately. Yang Guo smiled apologetically at Zhao Chen and followed his uncle Guo to the tower.
The others did the same. In just a few breaths, only Zhao Chen and Jiumozhi, as well as a few servants, were left in the yard.
"Let's go, let's go and have a look!"
Looking at the backs of a group of people running on the eaves, Zhao Chen was quite speechless. He actually wanted to tell Guo Jing and others that this was just a matter of teleportation.
But since they had already left, there was no point in talking anymore. Looking at Jiumozhi beside him, Zhao Chen contacted the system and teleported over.
On the other side, Guo Jing and others spent dozens of breaths before they arrived on the tower one after another.
Then they were stunned, because Zhao Chen and Jiumozhi were already standing on the tower. Judging from the situation, it seemed that they had been waiting for a while.
"The owner is really a god!"
Looking at the figures of the two, Guo Jing couldn't help but sigh.
