Chapter 1847: Chapter 616: Brothers Are Heart to Heart, You Play Mind Gas with Them?
“If it’s a semi-automatic, I think the Garand is pretty good…”
“Huh? Do you think you have too many fingers, so you’re planning to lighten your load a bit?”
Nightmare Bat Puppet snorted and said:
“And think about what Transylvania is like right now. Where would we get so many resources to make such things? Loyal Brother could have chosen many bolt-action rifles back then. Why do you think he insisted on choosing the Mosin Nagant?
Use your brain, Multi-Turret. Loyal Brother has actually already determined the firearm upgrade route for Transylvania. We’re going the Russian route for weapon upgrades.”
“Uh, this…”
The Chief Believer of Multi-Turret was stunned and then exclaid:
“You an, the PPSh?”
“Exactly, exactly, there’s hope for you yet.”
Nightmare Bat Puppet grinned, gestured a cutting motion with his hand, and said:
“Just trim the Mosin Nagant barrel and it can be directly replaced. You don’t even need to make major changes to the production line. As long as the processing precision is up, and once forging craftsmanship and materials are plentiful, we can directly achieve capacity upgrades.
Honestly, at this current level of warfare on the continent, once we can roll out the PPSh, Transylvania could sweep the world. Anything more high-end isn’t impossible, just unnecessary!
Under those circumstances, we could make so classic weapons as premiums for the brothers, but don’t even think about a mass weapon upgrade for local soldiers.
For at least the next fifty years, we don’t need to worry about insufficient firepower. Let tell you, don’t listen to others saying Loyal Brother is conservative and stubborn. That guy’s got so ideas.
He’s not just anybody.”
“Is that so?”
Multi-Turret understood now, scratching his head, he said:
“I thought Loyal Brother insisted on copying the Mosin Nagant because he was a pathetic retro weapon enthusiast. Obviously, the 98K is more practical.”
The two entered the room ahead, seeing Loyal Brother in his classic “capitalist outfit,” engaging in a heated argunt with several technocrats below who were shouting and yelling, seemingly because Loyal Brother proposed a terrible idea that angered everyone.
“No way! I’d rather cut off my hand than produce this crap!”
A sharp voice shouted:
“Loyal Brother, you are heartless! Turning into a capitalist, huh? The brothers have to go into battle with guns, and you’re letting them use this junk? That’s reckless with people’s lives! Don’t you know?”
“Yes! Exactly, this guy’s crazy. There are so many semi-automatic designs available. Why insist on this rubbish?”
“Why don’t you equip the brothers with Liberator pistols then?”
“Do you want them to shoot you in the back with this thing, huh? Our arsenal can’t afford this disgrace. No way! Not only do we refuse, but we’ll also send this heartless bastard to a military tribunal!”
Several old “technicians” who rose up with Loyal Brother were in a frenzy. They were shouting and nearly picked up chairs to smash Loyal Brother’s head.
Nightmare Bat Puppet, a bit puzzled, stepped forward. Seeing the blueprint Loyal Brother had on the table, as a “ticulous” engineer, he knew where the problem lay upon seeing the familiar shape of the new gun.
“Whoa! You’re serious about this?”
Nightmare Bat Puppet was shocked too.
He stared wide-eyed at the exasperated Loyal Brother, saying:
“You actually dared to bring this thing out? Are you crazy?”
“Damn it! I’m also thinking about the bigger picture! You bunch of bastards, look at the stuff you brought out, Garand, STV, and the most outrageous one even threw a design for a 56 Assault Rifle.
Are you guys nuts or what!”
The scolded and humiliated Loyal Brother couldn’t take it anymore, he slamd his cool chanical hand on the table and cursed:
“Don’t I know the Garand works well? Don’t I want every brother to carry a 56 Assault Rifle into battle? Don’t I want the glory of the Kalashnikov to shine on the Transia Lands? Brothers, please make so sense!
With Transylvania in its current sorry state, where are we going to find the resources to make these high-end things for you?
The material and ti for one Garand could make three of these things!
What are we lacking right now?
It’s ti, it’s materials!
I urge you to grasp the concept of industrial upgrading, alright? Given the current situation of Cadman People’s Army, what we’re pursuing isn’t cool or classic!
It’s firepower!
We need firepower, the most cost-effective firepower!
You bastards, all of you go back and give it a good think. I know this thing sucks, I also know it’s useless apart from being cheap! But at least it’s an automatic weapon, right? When it cos to firepower, there’s nothing to complain about…”
“Is that why you’re giving the ‘Stinky Butter Gun’ to the brothers?”
Nightmare Bat Puppet glared angrily at the faltering Loyal Brother, shouting:
“Hey! This isn’t just reckless, it’s an insult to our intelligence and integrity as engineers. Damn it! If you dare hand this gun to Lord Qin, do you believe the old guy won’t just grab this thing and blow your head off?”
“Heh, nonsense, did you think I didn’t ask them before bringing out this blueprint? Be obedient now and hurry up with the production plan. We’ve already upgraded from bolt-action to automatic weapons, what more do you need?
In the Black Disaster, this is the most cost-effective weapon I can offer!
Take it or leave it.
I believe Sir Morphy will definitely support , so do as you please~”
