To a certain extent, women are indeed the best objects for men to vent their desires and relax their spirits. Especially for soldiers in this era of queuing to be shot, if there are no women for them to vent their panic and helplessness on the battlefield after the war, they must strictly abide by military orders.
If you face the psychological pressure of death, you will easily have mental problems.
Claude finally understood why the aristocratic sons of Belklin always went to the bars of Amys City to find women to accompany him every time they followed him on a mission. Faced with the enemy's threat to his life and witnessing the casualties of his comrades,
Every soldier returning from the battlefield is indeed very nervous, and only good wine and women can make them relax and experience the beauty of being lucky enough to survive the battlefield.
Claude has very strong self-control. He has been in the army for more than two years now. Fighting on the battlefield is already very common for him. But the war is still going on, and Claude doesn't know if he can survive in the end.
, he can go home to visit his relatives. The mental pressure is accumulating little by little. Although he is very confident and trustworthy in front of others, he feels a little depressed in his heart. During this time, he often dreams about himself when he was in junior high school and
Bockar, Viriklo and their adventures...
It wasn't until this night that Claude finally understood the beauty of women. He was very tired yesterday, but he slept very soundly without any dreams. When he woke up in the morning, he did three morning exercises with the beautiful lady, and they continued to be obsessed with each other until noon.
The two of them just got up. Although their bodies were tired, they felt very relaxed. Their spirits were also unusually enriched and exciting, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off, and their thoughts were particularly clear. The depression that had been suppressed in the bottom of their hearts in the past was swept away, and there was no longer that feeling.
Occasionally flashes of decadence and despondency.
"Sir, this is the carrier pigeon reply from the battalion headquarters that the correspondent received this morning." Michael Jack had been waiting outside the door and handed over a piece of tissue paper as soon as he saw Claude coming out.
Claude took it and looked at it. It said that he already knew the situation and was sending people to Pacasia City to investigate the relationship between Baroness Vacusili and Master Bird. It would take about three days. Please treat the Baroness well.
, Do not offend this noble lady before the situation is investigated and understood. The signature is the battalion commander, Major Leedfunk.
Well, I will treat her well. She has already been treated to the bed now. There is no subordinate who is more dedicated and harder working than me.
"McJack, take the big man Gimi to ride a horse to visit the villages along the way. Buy me some ingredients that are suitable for the table. If there is good wine, buy some. Come back before five o'clock in the afternoon. I need to cook for the Baroness.
A delicious dinner." Claude threw a money bag to Michael Jack, with six or seven gold crowns in it.
"As you command, sir." Mike turned around and went to find the big man, Germi.
At noon, Claude and the beautiful lady just had a casual meal. Claude had a good appetite and ate seven fried eggs in one go. After all, he had consumed too much energy last night and in the morning and needed to replenish himself.
In the afternoon, Madam Beauty went back to her room to take a nap. Of course, it was Claude's bedroom. The small suite originally given to her became the residence of her two maids. Claude was going to patrol the checkpoints on the mountain road and deal with some emergencies.
What happened. As the highest responsible officer here, he cannot continue to go to bed with the beautiful lady to sleep...
When Marki, a veteran, saw Claude coming to inspect, he had an expression of envy and hatred on his face and raised his thumb to show his admiration. After dinner, a few bottles of good wine, and a night of chatting with him, he was done.
He tricked the Baroness Vacusili into bed. Only Claude, a pretty boy, had such ability. Markchi, who lived downstairs, heard what happened last night very clearly. At this moment, he was thinking about whether to go to bed or not.
I have to find an opportunity to try the idea of the two maids of the Baroness. Maybe they are also bored and lonely.
Claude pretended that he didn't see Macchi's raised thumb. He first asked about the number of people who had passed the checkpoint today, and then asked about the situation of the small group of scout cavalry who came back last night. This small group of soldiers consisted of three cavalrymen.
The group was divided into four groups to conduct reconnaissance on the two mountain roads leading to the Karnas Prairie and the eastern part of the Eskiline Principality. They left early and returned late, because when they came back, Claude was chatting with the beautiful lady, so it was Mark.
Qi received the report.
"There is nothing abnormal." Seeing that Claude was not interested in his thumb, Markchi had to take it back angrily: "The last group of scouts came back yesterday and reported that they also entered the Karnas Prairie in the afternoon, about
I ran for more than twenty miles and walked around a lot, but found no signs of people gathering, so I came back a little late."
"This is a normal phenomenon." Claude nodded: "The Principality of Karnas and the Principality of Eskilin are different from our kingdom. They still implement the territorial lord system. For example, our two mountain roads lead to
They are both private territories of the two principalities. Even if the military of these two principalities wants to send troops, they must obtain the consent of the lords here and provide compensation. Only then can they attack us through these territories. If the compensation is not available
As agreed, those lords will not allow the army to pass through their private territories..."
"How is this possible?" Mark Qi opened his mouth in surprise: "This is a national war, how can those lords do this?"
Claude laughed: "It's not surprising. They had a war with our kingdom, and these territorial nobles also sent troops and money to fulfill their obligations. Their territories are passed down from generation to generation, so they attach great importance to the sovereignty of the territory.
, like their kingdom’s troops, they all go along the national highway and will not easily enter private territory. Unless their territory is invaded, those lords will take the initiative to invite the army of their own country to enter, otherwise they will resolutely refuse the army to enter.
Territory, and will even use force to resist..."
In the next few days, in addition to frequently performing love action melodrama in bed with the beautiful lady every night, the two of them mostly ate, drank and chatted together. Soon they found a common hobby between them, which was the passion for firearms.
Research. First, Mrs. Beauty drew a sketch, showing her idea of a musket phalanx. On the drawing, there were twelve muskets in a row, with a total of four rows of forty-eight muskets welded in a rotatable direction.
On an iron frame, this iron frame can also be mounted on a carriage for easy movement.
What Mrs. Beauty means is that when faced with an attack by a large group of light cavalry, this kind of musket formation can be arranged in front of the position and fired simultaneously, using intensive firepower to cause damage to the incoming cavalry. Claude looked at the sketch and shook his head.
It is pointed out that this kind of musket phalanx is actually a one-time firepower. It is too time-consuming and troublesome to reload the ammunition after firing. It is not practical on the battlefield. It is not even as lethal as the shotgun fired by the light infantry artillery.
, the only advantage is that it can hit farther than the shotgun shells fired by artillery.
Mrs. Beauty had to admit that what Claude said was very reasonable. In fact, she was unable to turn it into reality because of the difficulty in loading the firepower phalanx she envisioned. Her father, Master Bird, also had a similar problem with Ke.
Like Lord, she believed that only intensive and continuous firepower could stop the light cavalry's rapid assault. Unfortunately, her idea achieved intensive firepower but not continuous firepower...
The problem is that the Falea continent has been making muskets for hundreds of years, and has almost researched this front-loading matchlock gun to the point of perfection. Even the Kingdom of Ovelas, which prides itself on the quality of its military industry among all countries in the eastern part of the continent, in order to
It took nearly twenty years of hard work to increase the limit range of the matchlock gun to 350 meters. You must know that the Obash II standard rifle equipped by the army of the Kingdom of Ovelas has always been famous in the mainland.
Yuanyang is the best in terms of weight, range, durability, quality and reliability.
This is also the real reason why the Obas III standard muskets, which are mainly used for precise aiming and shooting, appeared on the battlefield and were quickly imitated after being captured by the anti-Austrian alliance armed forces. It is simple. The firearms production in the Kingdom of Ovilas is maintained.
In addition to the above advantages, there is another advantage of precise aiming and shooting. Even if the countries of the anti-Austrian alliance cannot explore the combat effectiveness of this kind of precise aiming and shooting muskets during the offensive like the Austrian army, the performance of the imitation muskets is also different.
However, in the defensive battle, the soldiers of the Anti-Austrian Alliance could still use this precise aiming and shooting musket to cause heavy casualties to the attacking Austrian army.
Mrs. Beauty purchased two captured Obash Type III muskets at a high price on the black market just to see if she could get inspiration from this aspect. In her opinion, precise aiming and shooting of such muskets is very effective in dealing with a small number of nomadic cavalry.
It was indeed very effective, but the same front-loading method made her very disappointed. No matter how fast and skillful the loading action was, a soldier could only shoot up to three times in one minute, and this did not require any operational errors.
So when Mrs. Beauty jokingly asked Claude if there was a better and faster way to reload, Claude stared at her for a while, shook his head and asked: "I really don't understand you gun designers.
Why don't you have to deal with muskets? Just lengthen the barrel, change the appearance of the accessories, reduce weight, etc. Why not consider changing the ignition method and gun? If you want to increase the firing speed of the musket or even be able to fire continuously, then maybe you can imagine
Change the gun and gunpowder from front-loading to breech-loading..."
Mrs. Beauty didn't notice the last sentence of Claude's words at first. She retorted: "Many designers have already considered the changes in ignition methods and guns, but the muskets they trial-produced are not as effective in terms of lethality or range.
It is far inferior to the standard muskets currently equipped by the armies of various countries, and is even inferior to shotguns. Such muskets have no future at all..."
Claude sighed: "You gun designers all think so, so the current musket design has reached a dead end, and there is no way back. Think about it for yourself, the first gun hundreds of years ago
The muskets produced are definitely not as powerful as the current muskets, but step by step improvements and improvements have led to the mature standard muskets we have today.
Those trial-produced muskets may have unreliable performance, short range, and low lethality, but it will take time to study how to improve them and slowly improve their performance to a level comparable to current muskets. Perhaps by then,
This is a page worth remembering in the history of musket development, because you have blazed a new path that is completely different from the matchlock gun."
The beautiful lady was stunned. She felt that Claude's words had entered her heart. At this time, she remembered the last words Claude just said: "You said before that you should change the front-loading type to the rear-loading type."
chamber-loading type, is that possible?”
"Why is it impossible?" Claude asked back: "I often think that if a hole is made in the barrel, the hole is opened every time when loading, the gun and gunpowder are put in, and then the hole is covered for shooting, then
How convenient would it be? Besides, don’t we all have those paper tube bullets that are custom-loaded now? It would be even more convenient if we could directly load the paper tube bullets behind the barrel..."
"You go out first, let me think about it..." The beautiful lady seemed to have been opened by Claude to a new door. Outside the door was a brand new world. Suddenly, she had thousands of thoughts and inspirations. I was afraid of Claude.
After touching her body and affecting her thinking, Claude was kicked out of the room.
The good times always passed quickly. Four days later, Claude received another carrier pigeon message from the battalion headquarters. The identity of the beautiful lady had been confirmed. She was indeed Master Bird's beloved daughter, Baroness Vacusili.
Major De Funk ordered Claude to apologize to Lady Beauty and let her go. At the same time, on behalf of the Ministry of War, he sent an invitation to her and her father, Master Bird, hoping that they could go to the royal capital when they had time. The superiors would arrange for them to visit the Musket Research Institute.
One night before they parted, Madam Beauty and Claude had a passionate affair. She told Claude that she would go to the Kingdom of Ovelas with her father, but she just needed her father to be in better health. In addition, she got some from Claude.
Inspiration and ideas, I will go to her father's place to study it carefully this time...
On the third day after bidding farewell to the beautiful lady, Major Liederfunk came to inspect.
