Starting from Robinson Crusoe-Chapter 232 - 104: Garlic! (Part 3)

According to the pattern of the indigenous people's landings, the next cannibal feast will take place in over 15 months.

That means he must prepare for the "execution rescue" before December next year.

Regarding life and death, Chen Zhou doesn't dare to be careless.

For offensive weapons, he plans to use the revolver as his trump card.

The bullets for that revolver should be 7.62mm, which can guarantee a one-shot kill if it hits a vital area like the torso or head, provided the indigenous people don't have an overwhelming numerical advantage, it's enough for survival.

Of course, the revolver is the ace, and it might still be useful against Spanish raiders in the future, so the bullets should be conserved as much as possible.

According to Chen Zhou's plan, the "improved Chen Family flintlock gun" is the main weapon for the "execution rescue".

After removing the spring from the Divine Artifact, he originally intended to emulate the mainstream rifle structure of the 18th~19th centuries to make a similar rifle.

However, the rewards subsequently sent, like keyboards and ergonomic chairs, gave him a bold idea—perhaps he could make a semi-automatic electric ignition rifle.

Due to the special combat context, this gun can completely forego many of the advantages of modern firearms and focus on firepower, accuracy, and range.

Perhaps after successful manufacturing, each bullet for this gun would take half a day to make;

Perhaps this gun would be very cumbersome, making it difficult to carry over long distances;

Perhaps its parts would be hard to replace and its lifespan greatly shortened;

But none of that matters. In Chen Zhou's view, as long as it reduces his risk of injury and strikes the indigenous people with a thunderous blow, it's worth it.

For ranged weapons besides firearms, he also prepared bows and arrows and a crossbow in advance—the carpenter's steel crossbow just had a broken bowstring, fixing it with a piece of animal tendon twisted into a bowstring, it can still be used.

Melee weapons are primarily the long-handled axe and iron blade, as the indigenous people are nearly naked and have virtually zero defense, not requiring divine weapons to easily slaughter them.

Of course, there's a saying that the best defense is a good offense.

The fact that the indigenous people fall to one shot doesn't mean Chen Zhou is invulnerable.

If the rifle malfunctions, and the six bullets of the revolver are all fired, but the indigenous people's morale still runs high, rushing in close for a bayonet fight, Chen Zhou doesn't have much confidence in securing a victory.

For the sake of his life, he also plans to make a set of armor.

According to Chen Zhou's design, the best armor would be the full-body armor of a European knight.

Wearing that is like donning an iron can; the indigenous people's bows and wooden spears cannot penetrate it. As long as he has the stamina, he can kill his way through the indigenous people without losing a hair.

But full-body armor is too complicated to make, and Chen Zhou considers himself "half a carpenter," yet he doesn't dare to boast that he can quickly become a blacksmith like carpentry.

Moreover, he lacks the hammers, pliers, anvils, and other tools needed by a blacksmith, relying only on mysterious rewards to forge a set of iron armor.

So he plans to make leather armor, in which the vital parts are embedded with thick steel plates from a safe.

While the safety performance of leather armor is far less than that of iron armor, it can still provide some protection in battles with the indigenous people.

To say that leather armor can resist the piercing of a wooden spear is clearly unrealistic, but it should have no problem defending against arrows without iron arrowheads from the indigenous people.

As long as he doesn't lose his combat ability immediately, Chen Zhou believes his offensive power will also take the indigenous people by surprise.
