The big bandit in the Red Mansion robbed Lin Daiyu at the beginning

Qingfeng Li listened carefully to Sun Yu's introduction and nodded slightly with satisfaction.

With so many guns, it would be no problem for him to unify the north and the south one day.

Maybe one day, I can also be the captain of the team?

Thinking of this, the corners of Li Qingfeng's mouth curled up unconsciously, like an AK that could not be suppressed.

However, if you want to be a captain, it may be difficult to do so with just this Type 38 rifle.

Qingfeng Li turned to Sun Yu and said,

"The Type 38 rifle is the weapon of the lower-class soldiers, so its manufacturing process cannot be sloppy!"

"But we must not stop developing new firearms. Xiao Ai's AK47 should have shown you its power. We must strive to mass-produce this thing for me as soon as possible!"

Sun Yu nodded and said,

"Peak Master, what you said is absolutely right! However, if we want to mass-produce the AK47, several of the processes still require further in-depth research by my subordinates and the people below us. Otherwise, the quality on the battlefield may not be up to standard."

Qingfeng Li waved his hand.

"This matter cannot be accomplished overnight, and this Peak Master will not rush into it."

"Take me to see the steam workshop first! This is the main purpose of my visit!"

"Yes, Peak Master!"

Then, under the guidance of Sun Yu, Qingfeng Li came to the steam workshop.

The steam workshop is where steam engines are developed and manufactured based on Xiao Ai's information.

Li Qingfeng also wanted to directly build a few large destroyers, but the technology of that thing was obviously unrealistic considering the current technological level.

So Li Qingfeng was not picky. Since he couldn't make a large destroyer, there was nothing wrong with making a steam iron-frame battleship first.

Calculating the time, in a hundred years at most, the West will start the industrial revolution.

There is not much time left for him!

After entering the steam workshop, an artificially drained river runs through it.

Looking at the clanging sounds, countless busy people were huddling around a big machine that was emitting puffs of hot steam from time to time.

Li Qingfeng frowned and asked Sun Yu beside him,

"What stage has this steam engine reached now?"

Sun Yu clasped his fists and said,

"Most of the components of this steam engine have been manufactured thanks to Advisor Ai's technical guidance, advanced steelmaking techniques, and the cooperation of hydraulic lathes."

He said with a troubled look on his face,

"The only thing is the sealing piston, and even now I haven't found the raw material in large quantities."

"The base applied to the Oriental Chamber of Commerce and, following Military Advisor Ai's suggestion, purchased a batch of raw materials from Annan and other places, but they are not prohibited from using them."

"We are in the experimental stage now, and the losses are quite high!"

Qingfeng Li frowned and nodded.

"I was negligent about this!"

Then he asked,

"The raw material you just mentioned, is it rubber or something like that from Annan?"

Sun Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"Peak Master is wise! This is exactly it!"

"The current development of steam engines consumes a lot of this material, but it's only available in Annan and is quite expensive. Therefore, everyone in the steam workshop is working very hard, fearing that the material will be wasted, and the progress of research and development has slowed down significantly."

Qingfeng Li nodded slightly, touched his chin and asked,

"Eastern Chamber of Commerce? It seems that Wang Dacai has forgotten how our Great Wu started!"

Then he turned slightly and called out,

"Somebody come!"

A capable man immediately stepped forward, opened the booklet in his hand, and looked at Li Qingfeng respectfully.

"Peak Master!"

Qingfeng Li folded his arms, lowered his head and thought for a moment before speaking.

"Send a message to the commanders of the Fourth and Fifth Armies. Have them unite their forces and march westward from southern Guangdong across Yunnan and Guizhou. Then, march south to conquer Annan and other places. This mission will take one year. If they fail to complete it, have them both work their butts off to get the rubber back."

As Qingfeng Li spoke, the shorthand man beside him quickly took notes in a booklet.
