Thank you for your support, Xiaoyu will continue to work hard.
"Pfft." When Napoleon heard 10 million francs, he spit out the coffee he drank in his mouth. Originally, he thought that Xiao Jie had no pocket money, but he didn't expect it to be 10 million. Wiping his mouth, he said, "Andresi, are you kidding me? Why do you want so much money?"
Xiao Jie smiled and said: "Of course I'm not joking. I studied a lot of books on firearms when I was free at school, and found that the performance of the rifles we use now is really not that good, so I designed a rifle. , although it has not been manufactured yet, but I think the performance must be much better than that used by the army now. So I plan to open a factory to produce this rifle, so I borrowed money from you."
When Napoleon heard that Xiao Jie had also designed a rifle, he thought to himself: "What kind of monster is my nephew?" After thinking for a while, he said: "Well then, you give me the design drawings first, and I will help you. Find a few experts in this field to have a look, and if it’s really good, I’ll lend you money.”
Xiao Jie knew that Napoleon would not lend him so much money easily, so he took out the design drawings that had been in his bag and handed them to Napoleon.
"It turns out that you kid is already prepared!" Napoleon said with a smile. Then he opened the drawing, but he was deeply attracted at once. He is also a gun user, and he knew at a glance that this kind of rifle was much better than the rifles currently equipped by the French army. Carefully putting away the drawings, Napoleon said, "I'll give you an answer tomorrow night, do you like it?"
Xiao Jie knew that the matter was basically done, and he was relieved to put the drawings with Napoleon. After all, he was also his uncle, so he probably wouldn't know anything about black juniors. The drawing for Napoleon was drawn by Xiao Jie based on his memory of the Mauser 1898 rifle. The Mauser Model 1898 is a magazine-fed, rotary-action rifle. The bomb feeding system and bolt are its two most distinctive designs. The design of the bolt mechanism has become the classic design of the world's manual rifles and is famous in history. The feed system is a built-in double-row magazine in which rounds are staggered. And its bottom magazine can be removed so that the magazine spring can be replaced if necessary. When loading bullets, single-shot loading can be performed, that is, the trigger is opened and a single bullet is loaded into the magazine; disposable magazines can also be used. Each clip is filled with 5 rounds, just enough to fill the magazine. When loading, insert the clip directly into the guide slot of the receiver, the bullet is pressed into the magazine, and the empty clip is automatically thrown away when the bolt is locked. If you want to take out the bullets that have been loaded, you only need to pull the bolt (the safety device must be in the middle position, that is, it is safe but the bolt is unlocked), or you can directly remove the bottom magazine. The Mauser action is a simple yet solid one-piece action that is arguably a genius in design. The bolt has two locking teeth, both located at the top of the bolt. According to Mauser, this system contributed to better accuracy of the rifle. A stud on the rear of the bolt is often mistaken for a third locking device, but it is actually a safety stud that does not touch the locking shoulder on the receiver. The bolt handle is attached to the bolt itself, and on early model 1898 rifles it is straight and remains parallel to the ground when the bolt is closed. On the Type 98 Carbine, the handle was changed to a curved shape. This design makes the action of the bolt more comfortable and convenient. For example, on a Type 98 rifle with a rifle scope installed, if a straight handle is used, it will touch the scope frame, but a curved handle will not. However, the British "Small Arms Textbook" (1909) believes that the horizontal charging handle is easy to operate by hand when aiming, which is conducive to hitting the target and easy to eject the shell from the bottom. There is an exhaust hole designed on the gunlock, which is used to exhaust the hot gunpowder gas to prevent the shooter from hurting the face. Another well-known feature of the Type 98 bolt is its ejector. As soon as the bullet leaves the magazine, the long, non-rotating extractor catches the bottom edge of the case immediately, holding the round firmly in place until the case is ejected. This has a good effect on security.
In this era, Xiao Jie knew that this was definitely a world-shocking work, and the bullets were also shot with the copper body tip of later generations, so it can also be called an epoch-making work. In order to exert the maximum power of this weapon, it is not enough to use only the current black gunpowder, so Xiao Jie also sorted out the formula of the smokeless gunpowder, but he did not hand it over to Napoleon, but planned to reach it. It is time to knock a large sum of money, anyway, it is taking advantage of the country, if it is not for nothing, it is not for nothing!
The next day, as soon as Napoleon entered his office, he called the head of the guard and said, "Send for Dr. Kant at once. I have something to show him."
"As you order, Your Excellency." The chief guard took the order and left. Dr. Kant is definitely an expert in weapon manufacturing. Napoleon brought him here. If he thinks that the rifle designed by Xiao Jie is feasible, then there is nothing wrong with it.
An hour later, the chief guard came to Napoleon's office with an old man in his fifties and said, "Your Excellency, Dr. Kant is here."
"I don't know what your Excellency wants me to do? I still have a lot of work to do." Kant said as soon as he walked into Napoleon's office.
Napoleon knew that Kant was a well-known workaholic and science madman, so he was not angry, and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry for disturbing the doctor. The doctor is here today to ask you to look at this design for me. Is the drawing feasible?" After speaking, he handed the blueprint Xiao Jie gave him to Kant.
Kante took the drawing, and the more he looked at Yue, he was surprised, and his mouth opened wider and wider. Finally, he said: "My God! Can you tell me which master's design this is? The person who designed this rifle must be a genius. UU reading www.uukanshu.com"
Napoleon was very surprised when he saw that Kante's evaluation was so high, but he didn't show it. He only replied: "This is the work of an old friend of mine. I would like to ask the master if I can use this whether it would be feasible for such a rifle to replace the rifles we are armed with now."
"Of course it is feasible. I can guarantee that if your army is equipped with this new type of rifle, then the combat effectiveness can be at least doubled." Kant said with certainty.
Napoleon was very shocked. He knew what it meant to double the combat power. If the French army was equipped with this new type of rifle, it would be invincible in Europe and even the world.
When I got home, I saw Xiao Jie was already waiting for him, so I asked, "What's the name of your rifle?"
Xiao Jie scratched his head and said, "I haven't named it yet, but don't bother, just call it Type 1802 rifle, it's simple and easy to remember."
Since Xiao Jie said so, Napoleon did not object, after all, Xiao Jie was the designer of the gun. Napoleon went on to say: "Today I invited experts to appraise it. They think that the rifle you designed is very good, so I plan to let the army change their equipment and replace them all with this rifle."
Hearing what Napoleon said, Xiao Jie was overjoyed. How much would it cost to replace so many troops in France with this kind of rifles? Now he seems to see a mountain made of banknotes in front of him. So he asked, "So can you lend me the money?"
"After thinking about it, I still don't want to lend you money." Napoleon said calmly.
