Chapter 933 Fire Gun
If the appearance of the explosive packs gave everyone reassurance, the firecrackers made the soldiers more confident. Now they have to build ships, build salt ponds, and build cities besides training. It would be false to say that they are not tired, but they are.
Hope.
Unlike in Sui City, they were regarded as useless troops.
The former naval officers led by Han Ming adapted here early. The ships built by Master Lou made them more confident. The arrival of the wild monk was even more powerful. If not, "there are too few people in the navy." Qin
Feng put down the tea cup and said.
"You can't recruit troops and horses in a hurry." Xiao Lingyao said: "The most troublesome thing is that people in the southwest are not good at water."
If they hadn't accidentally discovered the sea area, the navy would have had almost no room for display. People in the southwest have lived inland for a long time, and there are very few people who are good at water.
Those who are not good at water may feel dizzy if they get on the boat. Let alone fighting against the enemy, they may feel uncomfortable and jump off the boat.
A passage suddenly came to Qin Feng's mind - De, one of his generals, and two of his five uncles, with their bows and arrows bent, took a small boat to return to Renying. The water filled the boat and capsized, and they lost their bows and arrows. They held the boat alone and capsized in the water, becoming a feather.
What you get, stand up and don't kneel down.
The most important figure in this story is Pound during the Three Kingdoms period. He led his people to escape and fled to Cao Ren's camp by boat. Unfortunately, the boat capsized due to strong winds and waves. He was caught in the water because he was good at water.
During the Three Kingdoms period, there were many people who suffered losses because they were not good at water. Qin Feng's head ached when he thought about this problem. That sea area cannot be covered, especially recently due to repeated use due to purchasing. As time goes by, sooner or later it will be
Discover.
The number of the navy was only a few dozen. Qin Feng thought for a while and said: "There is a sea area in the southwest, and I am afraid that East Vietnam has never discovered it. The power of the navy is concentrated in the southeast sea area, and there is a water division in Nanying involved.
, the redeployment can only be part of the military strength.”
"Shortage of personnel is a problem, but recruiting some landlubbers won't help much. It's better to have less than to have too much," Xiao Lingyao said firmly, "Besides, it's too early to recruit troops now."
Doesn't Qin Feng know this truth? Only when Kuya's life is prosperous will it be a great temptation for the people in the southwest. Now it has just started, where is the attraction?
He exhaled slightly and said with his head: "Or if the personnel cannot be supplemented, we can only start with weapons. In addition to steam engines, the Queen's manual also has records of fire blunderbuss. This item is a thermal weapon. If it can be widely used,
If used in production, it will be of great use."
Qin Feng also thought that although the steam engine was more helpful and could help industrialization, it was not easy to make. On the contrary, the fire gun was less difficult to make, and they occupied the minerals left by Lu Qi, and
There is no shortage of raw materials.
Seeing that his train of thought had been pulled back, Xiao Lingyao hurriedly said: "The wild monk is busy discussing with Master Lou how to make the ship's attack firepower more intense. If we can really join this fire blunderbuss, it's the right time."
"In this case, let's put the recruitment aside for now and concentrate on building this fire gun." Qin Feng has studied the design drawings of the fire gun. The design is simple and practical. In fact, it only has a barrel, a medicine chamber and a tail.
There are three parts.
The cross-sections of these three parts are all circular, and there are precise quantitative ratios between the caliber, the length of the gun, the length of the chamber, and the length of the chamber. It can be seen that the Queen has repeatedly experimented and finally obtained accurate values.
This move saved them a lot of trouble. You must know that the structure is easy to obtain, but the precise values can only be obtained by groping. The drawing on the drawing may seem simple, but behind it are countless experiments!
Qin Feng remembered that this thing was actually very popular in the Yuan Dynasty. The late queen seemed to be well versed in history, so she took the essence and used it.
The gun is cylindrical, and the charging part is raised like a fire cage. The inner and outer diameters are larger than the inner and outer diameters of the gun chamber, so the medicine chamber has a larger volume and cross-section.
This structure enables gunpowder to burn quickly in a chamber with a larger cross-section, enlarges the lateral burning surface, improves the instantaneity of combustion, instantly generates a large amount of high-temperature gas with a larger pressure, and is squeezed into a smaller cross-section chamber.
in the barrel of the gun.
The pressure increases, thereby increasing the firing force, projectile flight speed and lethality. If the inner wall is smoothed and the friction is reduced, the firing speed can also be improved.
The most important point is, "I have researched the formula and proportion of gunpowder, and the gunpowder in the explosive bag is the same. In this case, it is more advantageous to make the gunpowder first." Qin Feng said firmly: "Since there is no one, then let's do it first.
Get weapons."
Cao Jing said on the side: "Young Master, do you have any drawings? If so, our family will make a trip and hand this thing over to the wild monk. This should be done as soon as possible. Now that everyone has settled down and is back on track, I'm afraid...
…there are many branches and branches.”
Although the letter stated that Emperor Yuan was furious because he could not find their whereabouts and felt betrayed, and deprived them of everything, he did not give up the search. There was still a group of flying dragons who took the mission to continue to trace their whereabouts!
Qin Feng had already copied the drawing separately, and then sent Long Qi to get it and give it to Cao Jing. Cao Jing opened it and took a look, only to see that the two ends of the object were slender, with only a small section slightly raised, and the
One end is long and the other is shorter.
The bulge was not in the middle. Although Cao Jing felt strange in his heart, he saw more detailed notes underneath. He disassembled each component and drew a picture, and even marked the dimensions on it. He couldn't help blurting out: "First Queen
Why can this thing be designed?”
Qin Feng thought that it was definitely not something he picked up casually. It was the result that he got after countless experiments. Just like he purified it, he also tried countless times before he knew where the secret was.
As a highly educated person, he should have some understanding of history, but how is it possible to understand everything in detail?
The books that Mr. Cheng handed over to him did not have any actual effect in his hands, but they had a chance to shine. However, Qin Feng said vaguely: "Everything in the world can be created from scratch.
Their creativity is stronger than that of ordinary people.”
Cao Jing then suppressed the doubts in his heart and went straight to the weapons workshop with the drawings!
Qin Feng was able to send Cao Jing away who was eager to go out, but as soon as he raised his head, he met Xiao Lingyao's meaningful eyes. She curled her fingers slightly and tapped on the table a few times: "My great-grandmother is really not good at this."
Average."
"If she and the master of the Fusheng Pavilion had really gone on the same road back then, how could anything have happened to the Xiao family?" Xiao Lingyao raised her head again and asked Qin Feng: "That master of the Lu Pavilion was too ambitious and lacked some feelings of family, country and world, so that's right.
no?"
Qin Feng thought that he came from modern times, had received more advanced education, and had a sense of superiority caused by having more advanced knowledge, and then the pride caused by this sense of superiority. However, this pride came from discovering that there was another person from the same country as him.
