European Financial Emperor 34

034 Getting ready to go out to the open sea (1)

Hwan Lee provided the ‘Temporary Field Manual’ to the Royal Rifle Instructor Candidates.

Like medical books, the future knowledge was gathered and arranged as it was, so it was a bit chaotic and messy, but the details were alive.

Chapter 1 of the field manual that Royal Rifle Exchange candidates are currently studying was ‘Tactics’.

A temporary training ground using the forest, hills, and river behind the factory was prepared, and Lee Hwan preached tactics such as establishing a camp there or conducting the Doha operation.

“Article 1, Assault!”

“Article 2, prepare for hand-to-hand combat!”

Lee Hwan introduced the concept of ‘trenches’ to them for the first time, and the soldiers were shocked when they heard the description of the trenches.

Until now, a line of infantrymen holding rifles and betting on who would shoot first or risk their life was now able to effectively counter the enemy’s charge by digging trenches or establishing positions.

In addition, the level of tactics was almost 1 to 2 centuries ahead of other countries because it described in great detail the knowledge required for actual battles such as attack, defense, and search.

Recently, a groove for mounting a bayonet was attached to the front of a cartridge rifle, and a rail for mounting various equipment was being developed on the upper part of the rifle.

Thanks to this, infantrymen now use two tactics: shooting with a rifle and slashing and stabbing with a bayonet.

Janne Baront was watching the instructor candidates train their offensive and defensive tactics with a very satisfied look.

“I never imagined that the field manual written by the staff would be of such high quality. How the hell did you come up with this idea?”

“When the paradigm of firearms changes, the concept of tactics also changes. It’s just a slight change from linear battles to trench battles.”

“After all, I am envious of being able to change my thoughts so freely.”

“Anyway, the performance of the training is pretty good. If this is enough, even in a hand-to-hand battle at sea, there will be a good chance of winning, right?”

“It’s not quite a win, it’s almost a win. When others are busy stuffing gunpowder into their guns, can’t we just fire right away and go head-to-head without much preparation? In addition, the martial art of bayonet is considered to be a means of guaranteeing victory in one hundred battles in the case of fighting with the scoundrels.”

The intellectual property possessed by the Republic of Korea Marine Corps could feed Yi Hwan like this, he could not have even imagined in his previous life.

While the soldiers were sweating, East Stella’s munitions factory was still in the dark.

Lee Hwan was in the process of producing helmets, bulletproof vests, and bullet belts for the expeditionary forces.

Although the matchlock is definitely a conventional weapon, if you overlooked its destructive power, you could see a lot of blood between battles.

Because of this, Lee Hwan decided to improve the equipment to protect human organs and prevent bullets from penetrating his head.

Of course, the funds for these weapons are fully subsidized by the state, so Lee Hwan just had to work hard to develop the equipment and make it.

Lee Hwan, who visited the munitions factory where the lights were on, decided to inspect whether the work was being done properly.

Alexander Luger, who manages the munitions factory, began to explain the current production situation to Lee Hwan.

“The average production capacity of our factory per day is about 200 sets.”

“200 sets.”

For now, there is no reason to increase production because only equipment to be worn on the expeditionary force needs to be manufactured.

Lee Hwan decided to study the automation of munitions.

‘I think we need to study the sewing machine a little more in-depth. The method of forming iron also seems to need to be simplified a little more.’

As long as the system of mass production is established, the amount of production will increase by itself.

Since it is in the early stages, East Stellar is suffering as a whole, but if you fill in the shortcomings one by one, your suffering will come to light one day.

“First, let’s gradually improve our facilities while maintaining the maximum production of 200 sets per day.”

“Yes, sir. And the boss’s special equipment has just been completed.”

“Oh yeah?”

As Lee Hwan went to the battlefield, he prepared everything.

First, a sniper rifle that can give maximum damage to a single blow by extending the barrel was developed, and a sight that can be mounted on it was produced.

The bullet used in the sniper rifle used the most recently developed white powder, and the range was increased by extending the barrel from the springfield rifle that Lee Hwan had envisioned.

This gave Lee Hwan a fairly stable sniper rifle with a maximum range of 850 meters.

Of course, this was a kind of prototype that was built prior to mass production of the full-fledged Springfield rifle and white powder.

So no one could say for sure what the flaws would be.

However, there was no doubt that it was a piece of equipment that would show its true value as a sniper.

Lee Hwan held the finished gun in his hand.

shudder!

I really liked the feel of the reloading handle, which moved quite smoothly, and the gun felt as light as a single piece of wood in my hand.

From the soft loading to the light weight, it could be said that this was an improvement compared to when Lee Hwan first designed Springfield.

“Are you okay?”

“As a result of test firing, the accuracy of the firearm has increased significantly compared to conventional firearms. A barrel designed to withstand the pressure of gunpowder in particular is a godsend.”

If you put white powder into a rifle that used black powder and fire it, the barrel will explode with just one shot.

This is because the white gunpowder creates a much stronger pressure, and it is for this reason that Lee Hwan brought in a steel engineer to study the gun development.

“Bringing people from England was truly a godsend.”

“It is like that. It would have never been possible if the boss had not been sealed to the baron.”

If you really had this level of technology, you wouldn’t feel embarrassed even if you pretended to be crazy and participated in the war.

With the gun in hand, Lee Hwan tapped Alexander Luger’s shoulder.

“It was really hard.”

“We just anviled on the foundation laid down by the boss. Isn’t everything designed and framed by the boss?”

That afternoon, a letter arrived to Lee Hwan.

“Sir Ritterkirk! This is from the Amsterdam headquarters!”

“At the main camp?”

“In the next two months, the fleet will sortie. This is an order from Prince Ben-Heren to join the war as a commander too.”

Finally, it has come.

So far, what has been trained only through simulations is about to be introduced into practice.

***

Late at night, two men came to a mansion in Prussia, Germany.

They passed through the mansion’s garden and entered the reception room as if they were familiar.

“Did the master come?”

“Father?”

“It’s still the same.”

“Damn it, the white pill is invalid. What do the doctors say?”

“At the longest, they said that if you survive for three months, you will survive a lot.”

“Hmm… … .”

The butler, who met the master of this house in the reception room, took him to the basement.

Meanwhile, the butler said.

“Have you heard of Sir Ritterkirk?”

“Anyway, I’ve just heard the news from Holland.”

“Will he ever join our alliance?”

“Well, I heard that you are a stranger from the Far East. Will you believe in our Judaism and hold my hand?”

“Even Gentiles can receive grace when the Holy Spirit is influencing them.”

“Yeah, it’s not. But in reality, will he understand and follow us?”

“All things are guided by God, and all we have to do is follow Jehovah.”

“… … They still say good things to sell.”

“Actually, our people have lived that way, and God has always guided the way forward. I have no doubt that this will be the case again.”

The young man shook his head.

It seemed that he did not communicate well with the butler.

Eventually, the destination reached was a vault located underground.

The safe, blocked by a thick iron gate, was made by remodeling a natural cave, so it was impossible to break through with the current technology.

When I opened the safe and went inside, a huge amount of ledgers and gold were piled up.

“I have to move some gold to London because the UK is asking me to finance a major colonization.”

“How much do you plan to spend?”

“First, you have to give them whatever they ask for. Wouldn’t that make it possible for us to settle down and live in London?”

“Master, Europeans are not easily trustworthy. Life is more important than money, so even if the British royal family refuses to collect the money, hand it over.”

“Hey, you’re already worried about being ripped off by someone who lends you money. Isn’t that too much?”

“My father probably said the same thing to me.”

“… … You’re talking nonsense.”

“Anyway, I will keep the gold.”

The butler counted the gold, and the young man kept an account of how much gold he had to carry.

A large man standing behind them asked.

“Master, by the way. That little guy named Ritterkirk. Didn’t I say you’re from Ben Heren’s side?”

“It was.”

“But it’s kind of weird. Didn’t Ben Heren say they obviously didn’t know about gun making?”

“Do you believe in Jangsachi’s words?”

“If you think about the money we’ve invested so far… … .”

“Hey, you talk a lot. Anyway, we invested our money in Ben Heren, and he paid the dividend well. Then it happened. How much is a single gun?”

“sorry.”

The master of this house, who had finished writing all the books, asked the butler.

“Butler, how much money have we invested in Ben Heren Corporation?”

“I will have to recalculate to be exact, but I own more than 5.8% of the company that the mansion manages.”

“Does the Ben Heren Corporation also have shares in East Stellar?”

“I would, but are you willing to invest?”

“Even if it’s a gun, if it’s something that can be used for money, shouldn’t we look into it?”

“Then it would be better to visit the East Stellar Company in person in the future. After all, you have a very deep relationship with that family.”

“Hmm, yes, it’s a bit of a joke. Will it really work?”

“There is no one in this world who hates the rich.”

“but.”

“Shall we make an appointment soon?”

“Try to catch it as soon as possible.”

“Yes, I understand.”

They closed the open safe door.
