Iron Dynasty

Qingzhou.

Xiao Ming is testing the first submachine gun in the empire. In the history of the development of firearms, the submachine gun is also called a short-barreled machine gun. It is a close firearm used by infantrymen.

After the Han-style modified rifle was installed, Xiao Ming ordered Song Changping to make every effort to develop a submachine gun, because in his opinion, the imperial soldiers urgently needed an assault firearm between a rifle and a machine gun.

This kind of assault firearms will help soldiers to win faster in street fighting and trench fighting.

"Da da da……"

At the shooting range, with a burst of clear and rapid gunfire, some scattered bullet holes appeared on the wall fifty meters away.

"Well, the firepower is good." Xiao Ming said with a smile. As an assault weapon, the submachine gun does not have many requirements on the range, generally around 200 meters, and firepower is its important performance.

The Song-style submachine gun developed by Song Changping has a combat rate of about 40 rounds per minute for a single shot and 100 rounds per minute for a burst, which is qualified in firepower.

Hearing this, Song Changping breathed a sigh of relief. These days, he was overwhelmed by the development of submachine guns and light machine guns.

Now that the submachine gun was approved, he finished half of it, and then he asked the technician to bring a light machine gun. If this machine gun also passed, his character was perfectly completed.

"Emperor, this is our Fire Hedgehog light machine gun. Compared with the long flat machine gun, this machine gun is lighter, only sixteen kilograms, and can be used by a single person. It is very convenient." Song Changping pointed to the machine gun held by the technician.

Xiao Ming smiled satisfied when he saw this. He said: "Now the Empire is fighting on the European battlefield. If these two weapons are equipped, it will definitely be of great benefit to the war. From now on, you will mass-produce the two weapons."

"Yes, the emperor." Song Changping answered yes.

Now the war in Europe affects the hearts of every empire, because once the empire wins, the rules of the world will be rewritten by the empire from now on.

After observing the performance of the two guns, Xiao Ming took a special car back to the palace, and then he called Zhang Liang to ask about the construction of the aircraft carrier.

In contemporary times, the world’s first aircraft carrier was born in 1917. It was a modified cruiser in the UK. The central building of this cruiser has not been demolished. The decks are two front and rear. It is inconvenient and dangerous for the aircraft to take off and land.

In 1918, the United Kingdom converted the cruise ship "Kagis" under construction into an aircraft carrier and renamed it "Hundred Eyes Giant".

This is the first aircraft carrier with a through-deck. The flight deck is 168 meters long. Under the deck is a hangar. There are multiple elevators that can lift the aircraft to the deck and can carry 20 aircraft.

Now that the empire has the ability to build battleships and large merchant ships, building such early aircraft carriers is naturally not a problem.

Besides, all he needs is to let the aircraft carrier carry bombers to Europe.

In his view, victory in the European battlefield is very simple. It is rare to completely destroy the enemy's will. This is like the contemporary atomic bomb that disintegrated Japan's will to resist.

The empire is not yet capable of developing atomic bombs, but he believes that aircraft, a cross-age weapon, will have a great deterrent effect.

After all, tanks can still be destroyed, but Europeans have nothing to do with things like airplanes flying in the sky.

The arrival of the imperial reinforcements made Xie Yuan ready to launch a storm of London.

Prior to the arrival of the European troops, he had been fighting around the spot according to orders. In the past month, he repelled hundreds of attacks by the British red shirts, but they counted 30,000 British soldiers.

After London was trapped, the British troops on Hadrian's front line immediately chose to retreat, and Lu Jun immediately led the imperial and Scottish soldiers in pursuit of the plan.

When the situation became clear, Wales immediately announced its accession to the Vienna Allied Powers, and Ireland also dispatched an army of 20,000 to land on the west coast of England.

England is now completely isolated, and the main British army led by Butlin is caught between Xie Yuan and Lu Jun, unable to advance or retreat. "Hey, these battleships are really strong." Xie Yuan looked at the battleships on the sea very enviously.

During his more than a year in Europe, he did not expect such a brutal sea monster to appear in the empire.

"Of course, such a battleship can defeat a group of ironclad ships." The leader of the navy said, this time he is responsible for transporting ammunition supplies, weapons and personnel support for Xie Yuan.

Xie Yuan nodded. He didn't think the young general was bragging. The large-caliber artillery on the battleship was enough to explain many problems.

Gazing at the warships on the sea for a while, he said: "Since you are here, you have to perform. The mission of bombing London is entrusted to you. These British people have not surrendered yet. It seems that they can only come hard."

"Naturally, there is no problem." The young general said confidently, and then he made a gesture. The main guns of the Imperial battleship had a range of 20 kilometers, more than enough to shell London City.

"Hehe." Xie Yuan sneered a few times at this time. It has been a month since he launched an offensive against Britain. He didn't want to win the battle before the end of the European continent.

"Boom boom boom..."

Deafening explosions came from the sea, and the large-caliber main guns on the Imperial battleships burst into huge flashes of flames.

After the flash, a dense explosion sounded in London.

The buildings in the city that were hit by the shells collapsed instantly, and the terrifying destructive power made the British in the city scared to death.

Also frightened were Murphy and a group of nobles. During this month of siege, the central area of ​​London had never been shelled. After all, the city of London was very large. "Murphy, when will you hesitate until you really want to kill everyone? Don't forget the threat of the empire."

In the office ~www.ltnovel.com~, a group of nobles shivered with fright. After the shelling was over, they immediately came to Murphy. Along the way, they saw the horror of being shelled in the city.

The building collapsed and the corpses were everywhere. At this time they began to believe that the threat of the imperial massacre was no joke.

Thinking of this, they were really scared. Now Vidomija is living outside, like a bereaved dog, sweeping the ground with royal majesty.

What else can they hold on? Compared to a rich life, how about surrendering the empire?

Murphy was unkempt at this time. He was very aware of the current situation in London. Over the past month, his insistence was to hope that Butrin would be able to make a siege, but now Butrin can hardly protect himself.

More importantly, London has now run out of ammunition and food. If the siege continues, London may collapse on its own.

Slowly standing up, Murphy looked at the nobles and councillors in the office, they were all eager to give their final orders.

With a wry smile, he said: "I declare that all the soldiers in London lay down all their weapons and surrender to the Empire."
