Russia not only buys weapons from Nanhua, but is also a big customer.
As one of the great powers, Russia's industry and military industry are definitely on the floor of all European countries. It may even be a few floors below.
After being flattered by Britain and France in the Crimean War, although the war was defeated according to tradition and a tsar was sacrificed, reality still has to be faced.
The tsar suffered a "stroke" and after the new emperor succeeded to the throne, he began to import equipment from Britain and France. Not only did he import equipment, he also sent officers from time to time around the world to test and purchase various new weapons.
The lesson from Crimea is too profound. We must be vigilant.
When Count Philippe von Bruno chased Nanhua like a piece of dog-skin plaster and stubbornly sold Alaska to the "American Company", he unexpectedly discovered that the weapons produced by the company were actually very good, especially the cutting-edge weapons.
The Type 61 revolver is simply a perfect weapon.
After all, the Type 61 revolver is not only the world's first double-action, side-swing revolver, but when designing it, Zhu Xianhai also drew on some classic designs from later generations. For example, Colt's m1917
The revolver, coupled with the metal eggshell he said it used, was definitely an epoch-making weapon in this era.
When leaving Nanhua, Count Philippe von Bruno took away one hundred Type 61 11mm pistols. Six months later, several Russian officers came to Nanhua and signed a contract directly with the Nanhua Arsenal to purchase 41,000 Type 61 pistols.
With the contract, they not only ordered weapons, but also purchased technology patents to be independently produced by the Tula Arsenal in Russia.
It was also from 1863 that Nanhua truly entered the international arms market by exporting revolvers to Russia. In the following seven years, although Nanhua's weapons were sold to Spain, Egypt, Turkey and other countries, Russia has always been
A major customer of Nanhua Arsenal.
Even now, Russia is still the largest user of Type 67 rifles - 2 years ago, Colonel Grove and Colonel Gonias came to South China and were immediately conquered by this new rifle. They did not hesitate to purchase 30,000 Type 67 rifles.
rifle. This 9mm rifle was subsequently produced in Russia under the name "Glov Rifle".
What is Major Grove's greatest contribution?
It is to change the rifle to an 11mm caliber to increase its power - the Russians do not believe in the 9mm caliber. They always feel that the larger the caliber, the more powerful it will be. There is also a switch to a traditional three-edged bayonet. So
It became the Grove rifle. Even the Gatling gun manufactured by Nanhua was named the Grove machine gun in Russia.
However, the perfect performance of the Type 70 rifle in France last year dazzled the eyes of military experts from various European countries. The new guns and ammunition will bring great tactical advantages to the Ming Dynasty infantry in terms of accuracy and range. Overnight, the old Ming Dynasty rifle
caliber black powder guns and ammunition were eliminated.
As the biggest fan made in Nanhua, Russia naturally couldn't sit still, so Colonel Grove once again traveled thousands of miles to Nanhua, and the Type 67 rifle that used 7.5mm bullets was simply tailor-made for Russia.
——Because its basic design is taken from the Grove single-shot rifle currently being produced in Russia, from the perspective of reducing investment in state-owned factory renovation, purchasing it is definitely the most appropriate. In addition, the Grove rifle is simple and reliable to use, and it is not
It requires too much maintenance, which has long been proven in Russia. Russians cannot operate weapons that are too complex, so this kind of rifle is at least very suitable for Russian use.
In order to prove that what he said was true, Li Chenqin walked towards the Russian officers with a smile on his face, greeting them in French as he walked.
"Colonel Grove, what do you think of the Type 71 rifle?"
"Manager Li, this rifle is awesome!"
Colonel Grove replied in French, somewhat cheerfully.
"It absolutely subverts all our imaginations. It can even shoot at targets 2,000 meters away. My God! I have never seen such a perfect weapon!"
This year, French is the international language. Of course Groff, who was born in the aristocracy, can speak French. As for Li Chenqin, he not only studied in France, but his wife is also French. Not to mention him, even Ding Fu, the interpreter beside Yang Fuqing, can also speak French.
Speaking French, after listening to the prince's instructions, he translated everything the Russians said word for word.
Listening to their conversation, Yang Fuqing couldn't help but exclaimed.
"It turns out that even foreign brothers like Russia buy foreign guns from Ming Dynasty. It seems that buying this foreign gun should be a good idea!"
Unlike Yang Fuqing and others, Colonel Grove himself is a weapons expert. Although he is very satisfied with the Type 71 rifle, he still mentioned its shortcomings.
"We noticed that although the 7.5mm rimless bottleneck bullet is perfect, it is not suitable for use in Russia. Through research on technical data, we found that the requirements for the bullet chamber size of the rimless bullet case are relatively loose, so that during machine processing
Allowing for larger production tolerances saves both man-hours and money. It is more suitable for the Russian light weapons industry. Is there any solution to this?"
The experts first raised technical questions, and Li Chenqin's answers were quite straightforward.
"That's no problem. Some designs can be modified and the projectile casings with raised bottom edges can be used instead."
"There is also the issue of caliber. You are using metric unit caliber, but metric units are not suitable for Russia. We need to modify the caliber of the rifle. Maybe the third line, which is 7.62 mm, is more suitable."
Party A’s father has always been the biggest, and the arms dealer is also a businessman, so naturally he has to meet their requirements one by one. However, with just a few words, the two parties reached an agreement on the redesign of rifles and bullets, and the result of the agreement was of course Russia.
Army HiTiGlof 2 rifle.
After reaching an agreement on the introduction of rifles, Li Chenqin said to Colonel Grove,
"Colonel, if it is convenient for you, you can visit the artillery factory. There must be products you are interested in there."
For large customers like Russia, the company will of course proactively recommend various weapons. Nanhua Arsenal is a comprehensive weapons factory that not only produces various light weapons, but also mortars and Krug artillery are its top products.
, As a factory manager, Li Chenqin will naturally not miss the opportunity to promote other weapons. Besides, this is also a task!
"Okay, Manager Li, we will go there to visit in the next two days."
After Grove and his party left, Yang Fuqing took the initiative to come forward and asked.
"There must be something good in the artillery factory!"
Looking at Yang Fuqing who was a little curious, Li Chenqin laughed and said.
"Oh, it's a large-caliber naval gun. The Russians began to reorganize their naval armaments last year. My Ming Dynasty's Krupp heavy artillery is famous all over the world. Naturally, I will not miss this opportunity. By the way, Your Majesty, have you made your decision?
?You have just seen that the Russians are very interested in the Type 71 rifle and production equipment. If..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yang Fuqing interrupted others and said.
"1.1 million taels, 50% of the payment will be paid with Hu silk. If you agree, we will sign now."
Why are Ming Dynasty weapons so easy to sell?
To put it bluntly, it is because the payment method is flexible-barter trade can be accepted. In this era, this trade method is simply a big killer. After all, for countries with financial constraints, they are more willing to use gold and silver than gold.
Barter to purchase weapons and machinery.
Although he was a little enthusiastic about the Type 70 rifle, after weighing the pros and cons, Yang Fuqing made the decision to introduce the production equipment and technology of the Type 71 rifle.
After all, even foreigners have bought this kind of rifle from them. With the endorsement of foreign brothers, this kind of rifle is definitely worth introducing.
After finalizing the contract, Yang Fuqing said again.
"Manager Li, if it's convenient, let's visit the artillery factory with the Russians in two days!"
