Chapter 23 The shock brought by new weapons

The next morning, Frey got up early. After having a delicious breakfast, he took his guards to the entrance of the palace, got into the carriage that had been waiting for a long time, and sped towards the military camp of new recruits outside the city. go.

About half an hour later, Frey and his party arrived at the gate of the military camp. Tris and his guards were already standing there waiting for Frey's arrival.

After gently getting off the carriage, Frey walked towards Tris with a smile. Frey smiled and said: "Uncle Tris, how are you? Is the control of this new weapon no longer a matter of chance?"

After hearing Frey's inquiry, Tris saluted and replied with a smile: "Your Majesty, Tris has completely mastered the use of this new weapon, and even the soldiers under my command have learned it. How to use new weapons."

Everyone couldn't put it down, but when they heard that these weapons were not for them to use, but for the new recruits, they kept yelling why such powerful weapons were not for them, why were they not used on these battlefields? The recruits who have used it are more or less unhappy in their hearts.

When Frey heard Tris's answer, he smiled and cursed: "Hahaha, look at their potential, you will tell them later that I have a purpose for using this new weapon for the new recruits."

At present, the only teams on the surface of the former kingdom are the one stationed in the royal capital, and the two teams stationed in "Amsterdam" and "Stokol". There are definitely nobles in these teams. The cronies they installed are inside.

Just in case, I specially recruited these recruits from all over the kingdom and trained them as a secret team. Although during the recruitment, some nobles may have placed one or two spies in it, but it doesn't matter.

Frey smiled and continued cunningly: "At present, this recruit team is undergoing round-the-clock training, which temporarily restricts their freedom of life. Even if there are spies from the nobles inside, they cannot send out news. There are people outside the military camp. Dozens of soldiers patrolled back and forth day and night, and not even a fly could get in."

As long as this team of recruits is trained for a few days, so that they know how to obey military orders and understand the four words "military orders are like mountains", they will be qualified recruits. I don't need to make them like those who fight on the battlefield. Like the warriors who have possessed powerful martial arts for many years, I want them to understand that the power of the team is the greatest, and the stupid idea of ​​individual heroism needs to be abandoned early.

I want them to know that no matter how powerful a person is, if he can beat one person effortlessly, then I will find ten people. If he can beat ten people, I will find a hundred people. , a thousand, until he can no longer support it. This is the power of a team, this is the power of an army.

Moreover, this new type of weapon is just a test product, and there will be something better, more convenient, and more powerful than this in the future.

Frey looked at Tris and smiled: "Let's go, let them teach these new weapons to these new recruits who already know the basic commands."

"Follow your orders, Your Majesty."

Dadima Darson felt that he had lived a very fulfilling life these past two days. He could eat hearty and hot meals every day, as well as a small piece of snow-white white bread, and he actually found it in the porridge. Although there were not many pieces of meat, only a few pitiful pieces, the hot meat porridge also made him eat very sweet and very satisfied.

The two days of training were very boring. They were always asked to run and stand in military postures, and the officers shouted commands to divide them into groups to rehearse various square formations. Although Dadi did not understand this very much, He believes that these are not useless efforts, and there must be a purpose for the officers.

When the other recruits were complaining and complaining about how tired they were, Dadi didn't say a word. He easily completed various orders given by the officers. He was so outstanding that he asked them to train them. The officers looked at him very suspiciously and paid attention to him.

When Dadi saw the king of this country again, he was very surprised. He originally thought that the king's statement that he would come again today was a polite comment from politicians, but he did not expect that the king would really come again today. is here, and it seems that he is going to introduce a new type of weapon to them.

According to the king's introduction, this new weapon does not require them to fight face-to-face with the brutal gangsters. They only need to use this weapon more than a hundred meters away from the gangsters to easily kill them. This makes Da Dee was full of interest.

When Dadi saw the king taking out a firearm that looked like a "matchlock", this made him slightly disappointed. It might be a bit new to other recruits who had never seen the world, but in this past In the eyes of people who have been navy captains and have seen the world, this kind of matchlock gun has long been outdated.

This kind of matchlock gun not only has extremely low accuracy and short range, but also has a very slow reloading speed. By the time the soldiers fired the first bullet, it was estimated that the ferocious pirates had already rushed in front of them.

However, when Dadi retired from the navy, he heard news from the army that the naval headquarters in the Grand Line had developed a new type of firearm that could fire two or three times a minute, and did not require a match rope to ignite it. Gunpowder has been equipped to the main force on the Grand Route.

While Dadi was still preparing to continue reminiscing, Frey and Tris had already arrived at the high platform on the school field.

He looked at the neat and motionless recruits in the row below and was very satisfied. Frey clapped his hands gently. A guard inside trotted and put a smoothbore flintlock rifle into Frey's hands. Frey gently clapped his hands. He raised the firearm, then held it high in front of the recruits, glanced around at the recruits below who were all staring at him, and then said loudly to them.

"Recruits, the weapon I am holding in my hand is called the "Smoothbore Flintlock". It is an upgraded version of the "Matchlock" and has great power. As long as you learn how to use this new weapon, you will be able to Even if you are a thin young man with no strength in your hands, you can easily kill a strong man with a huge back and a strong waist."

Frey looked at the suspicious eyes below and smiled softly. Without explaining, he asked the guard to bring over an iron plate, held it up in front of them and said: "This is an iron plate with a thickness of about 25 to 3 millimeters." plate.

Frey pointed to a temporarily built shooting range a hundred meters away and said: "Now I will put this iron plate on the target a hundred meters away and fix it, and then use the smooth-bore flintlock in my hand. The gun can easily penetrate it.

After speaking, Frey motioned to the guards to take the iron plate to the distant shooting range and fix it. He showed the recruits how to use the smoothbore flintlock gun, loaded it with gunpowder, and pushed the ammunition to the bottom with a purge bar. , the whole process is completed in one go.

After doing all this, Frey turned around. He raised the gun in his hand and pointed it at the iron plate on the shooting range in the distance. He gently closed his left eye and looked at the barrel of the gun with only his right eye. With the accurate aim on the target, aim and pull the trigger, all in one go.

"boom"

A violent gunshot came from beside Frey. Frey, who had been mentally prepared after an experience, was not frightened this time. On the contrary, the surrounding guards and the recruits below were collectively frightened. Jump, Frey ignored them, loaded the ammunition again, and then fired. After repeating this four or five times, Frey stopped shooting.

He put the firearm aside casually, and then motioned to the guards to get the iron plate in the distance.

Frey, who took the iron plate from the soldier's hand, looked at the several pinky-sized holes punched out by bullets on the iron plate. This made him very satisfied. Frey raised the iron plate high and pointed. Looking at the holes made by the bullets, he said to them: "This is the power of this new weapon. This is why I tell you that you don't need to fight the enemy face to face, you can also kill the enemy within a hundred meters." outside".

The iron plate was handed out to the recruits at Frey's signal, and they were circulated and inspected one by one. The recruits who had carefully inspected it were all surprised and amazed.

The iron plate finally reached Dadi's hands. Dadi looked at the heavy iron plate in his hand. With his right hand, he tremblingly touched the several holes caused by the bullets. This shocked his heart. The new recruits may not understand, but in the eyes of Dadi, a man who has seen the world, only he knows that this gun represents an extraordinary significance.

The iron plate with a thickness of two to three millimeters was easily penetrated. What does this mean? It means that even an ordinary person without any training can easily kill a person with this weapon in his hand. A powerful warrior, this may not be a threat to those who are masters of physical skills and those with devil fruit abilities.

But, after all, those super strong people are only a small number of people, and most of the world are ordinary people. If the Kingdom of Ferelden formed an army fully equipped with this new weapon, not to mention conquering the whole world, up to Di dares to say that conquering the entire East China Sea is absolutely no problem.

"Well, that's if the world government didn't get involved in this war."

Frey looked at the shocked and surprised expressions on the faces of the recruits below, which made him very satisfied. He smiled and said: "Currently, there are less than fifty new weapons. There is only enough for you to take turns." Use it and train in turns. It will be mass-produced in a few days, and then all of you will have one."

Frey looked at the inexplicably excited recruits below and continued: "Your task in the past few days is to master this new weapon skillfully and conduct extensive shooting training. General Terrys will arrange for his personal guards to handle it step by step. Teach you how to use it, and I hope you will live up to my expectations of you."

The recruits below heard Frey's words and responded in unison: "I will definitely live up to your Majesty's expectations."
