Chapter 121: Rifled gun

"It seems that this Nanjing City is nothing more than that."

Liu Hansan saw that the Ming army from multiple fronts had already penetrated the city, and the victory of the outer city wall had become a foregone conclusion. He couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

As a traditional military commander, he was accustomed to besieging the city for several months at every turn. Now every siege almost only requires one total attack, which makes him feel that siege is very easy.

Although many soldiers died during the general attack and the battle was very tragic, Liu Hansan didn't care. In his opinion, the siege party should die so many, otherwise there would be something like siege.

"Outer city wall, the enemy is not determined to defend, the next Beijing city wall is where we have a headache."

Dai Zhijun was not as optimistic as Liu Hansan. According to the tragic degree of the battle just now, it is possible that at least 10,000 or 20,000 people would die when attacking the capital wall.

And this kind of battle damage has reached 25%. Dai Zhijun can't guarantee that the troops will be able to maintain the current high morale after suffering this kind of battle damage.

Morale is invisible and intangible, but it has a great impact on war.

"Clean the outer city wall first, prepare for defense, prevent the enemy from counterattacking, and talk about the attack on the capital city wall tomorrow."

Wu Changqing spoke.

The capital city wall is not far from the outer city wall. The farthest place is only ten miles away, and there are one or two miles away. The Qing army can almost reach the front with a single charge, so it is very important to prevent the Qing army from attacking and sneaking.

As for how to attack the walls of Beijing, Wu Changqing also had his own plan.

He came to his account, then he entered the system mall and clicked on the exchange. Subsequently, a hundred rifled guns were added to the camp.

This Minin front-loading rifled gun requires 200 resource points, which is 4 times that of the flintlock rifle. Moreover, the reloading speed of this type of rifled rifle is very slow. Like the matchlock gun, only five flintlocks are available. One part.

Such a slow rate of fire is so expensive, it is naturally because this rifled gun has super outstanding performance in other aspects.

Compared with the flintlock gun, the biggest advantage of this rifled gun is its high shooting accuracy and long shooting distance.

Because the rifling is engraved in the barrel, the bullet will rotate at high speed along the rifling when it is shot out of the barrel. Rotation is an important factor in maintaining stability.

The shooting accuracy of this rifled gun is at least five times that of the flintlock gun, and the shooting distance is more than four times, and it can shoot a target 900 meters away.

In large-scale group battles, the role of this rifled gun is actually not as good as the flintlock gun. However, this kind of gun has a wonderful function, and that is to shoot and kill the officer of the enemy army.

Today's military officers rarely suffer targeted strikes, so they often come to the front line to command in person.

Wu Changqing got this stuff out and prepared to remove a wave of officers from the Qing army. When the number of officers is reduced, the soldiers who defend the city will not receive effective command.

There is still a big difference between defending the city by instinct and organizing it.

If you can shoot Boluo or Hong Chengchou, it will also be a great blow to the morale of the Qing army.

More importantly, the deterrence brought by this kind of gun will make those officers afraid to take the initiative to observe the battle. Without understanding the situation, there is no way to mobilize troops based on the battlefield situation.

In short, before the Qing army has adapted to this weapon, this rifled gun can make the Qing army officers lose most of their functions.

This rifled gun is approximately equal to the sniper rifle of this era. On the battlefield, the officer is most afraid of the sniper, and the soldier is not so afraid, because it is not easy for a sniper to ambush once, and it is not a particularly valuable target. People are lazy to shoot to avoid exposing themselves.

The manufacturing difficulty of a rifled gun is much higher than that of a flintlock, and the rifling in the barrel is not easy to handle. Moreover, because of the low rate of fire, the rifled gun will not be equipped on a large scale, so Wu Changqing did not intend to light up this manufacturing technology, and just exchange a batch of ready-made ones to cope with the current battle situation.

As long as the technology of rifling can be improved naturally as the technology of ironmaking and steelmaking is improved, there is no need to spend scientific and technological points to learn and master.

"Sande, give my order, go to the First Division and select two hundred soldiers with the best eyes and the most accurate shots."

Wu Changqing ordered his soldier Wu Sande. Wu Sande was a distant relative of their Wu family, with average ability and very high loyalty.

"I got it, right now."

Wu Sande went to the execution without asking Wu Changqing what he wanted these people to do. Anyway, Wu Changqing asked him to do what he did. It would be difficult to perform well, but it was also difficult to make mistakes. This was his father’s guideline for doing things.

Wu Sande took Wu Changqing's dictum, and quickly selected more than two hundred people from the First Division who had good eyes and were more accurate in shooting.

The so-called accuracy is basically the level that can hit a single enemy within 30 meters. Beyond this distance, it is not a technical problem, but a purely weapon problem.

"This is called a rifled gun. It can hit 1,200 steps, and the accuracy is very high. You can see how I reload it first."

Wu Changqing took up a rifled gun for a demonstration.

The loading of the bullets is very difficult, and the bullets need to be knocked in with a punch. Moreover, after a shot of this kind of gun, there will be more garbage left in the barrel, and it needs to be cleaned up again.

For many reasons, the loading speed of this gun is extremely slow, and the rate of fire is extremely slow.

Looking at Wu Changqing's complicated loading process, many soldiers were puzzled. This gun looked much worse than the flintlock gun.

How to fight with this gun, you can only fire one shot, and the enemy will rush to the front to fight hand-to-hand, with a hammer to use.

Although all of them were curious and incomprehensible, many soldiers did not dare to question them. What was in front of them was the supreme commander of the 100,000 army. Even if Wu Changqing said that everyone must fight with iron rods in the future, they did not dare to question and disobey.

After loading, Wu Changqing aimed at a target two hundred meters away.

With a bang, a gap was shot out of the edge of the target.

Although it was only on the edge, it still took these soldiers off a big jump. That was a distance of two hundred meters. This kind of distance, let alone hitting a target as wide as a dustpan, even hitting a target the size of a house is also great.

"The general is worthy of being a **** of war, he is a sharpshooter."

Many soldiers talked about the rumors that Wu Changqing was the God of War descending from the earth, which is very marketable among the soldiers at the bottom.

The soldiers didn't know much. They couldn't understand why Wu Changqing was able to fight so many great victories, so they could only send ghosts and gods, and it would be easy for everyone to understand Wu Changqing as a **** descending from the earth.
