Chapter 72 True Qi Refining Gun, Gunpowder and Bullet
Chapter 72: True Qi Refining Guns and Gunpowder Bullets
This kind of seamless steel pipe was rarely seen by ordinary people even in Chang Xiao's previous life. This kind of thing is a controlled product and is not allowed to be bought and sold privately, let alone owned by the common people, because this thing is necessary for making guns!
Chang Xiao used his true energy to refine swords and iron tools. Although Chang Xiao could not use this to absorb the golden spirit into the alchemy furnace in his lower abdomen to create a magical flying sword, he could make the iron tools into this kind of seamless steel pipe. Although this
Seamless steel pipes are still inferior to the seamless steel pipes of later generations, but they can still be used.
Chang Xiao decided to try to add some special metal components to the steel pipe in the future, such as chromium and molybdenum, to strengthen the hardness and toughness of the steel pipe. Now Chang Xiao just added carbon essence to the iron essence to form steel.
Chang Xiao has now built six parts. To assemble that thing, there are still a dozen parts left, but the rest are small parts. The most difficult part, Chang Xiao, has been built. If he wants to assemble that thing into one
It's all put together, and the only difference is time.
Chang Xiao now spends every day in excitement and expectation. On the next day, coal trucks were transported into the Chang family's backyard. The Chang family's servants all found it strange that so much coal was needed to make a meal.
What? Even if the Chang family burned for three years, it would be enough, and there would even be a surplus.
Chang Xiao entered the coal house in the middle of the night and stayed inside for more than three days. Ping'er was so anxious that he wanted to open the door, so he walked out carefully holding a large jar that was tightly sealed, and then slipped back in.
In the study room.
The next day there was a puff of smoke in Chang Xiao's study, and the stench was astounding, but it dispersed as soon as the wind blew. After what happened, Chang Xiao finally came out of the study, his face not very good-looking, but he had a rest.
After staying for a long time, I got in again.
On the fifth day, Manager Lin brought over the gunpowder Chang Xiao asked for. He was a little confused. He didn't know why the young master wanted these things. The Spring Festival was still far away and it wasn't the day to set off firecrackers, but he couldn't control these things.
The amount of gunpowder Chang Xiao asked for was not too large, just a small bag. Manager Lin told Chang Xiao to keep the gunpowder carefully and keep it away from open flames, etc., and then Chang Xiao sent him away.
After closing the study door, Chang Xiao, who had messy hair, stared at the small packet of gunpowder in a daze for a while, and then took a deep sniff. The smell of gunpowder has always been so good.
This smell makes Chang Xiao miss him endlessly. What he misses is another time on the battlefield, the friendship between dozens of hot-blooded men, and pairs of eyes... Chang Xiao shakes his head to drive away these thoughts, and then he will be gone.
The prepared things were taken out.
A brass-colored thing that is as long as a finger and as thick as a finger, with a pointed head and a flat tail.
No one in this world knows what this is, but in Chang Xiao's previous life, everyone knew about it.
Not bad, bullet!
A bullet.
No one would have such a simple method as Chang Xiao. Back in ancient times, he could create bullets by himself. It was so simple that it was almost child's play. Chang Xiao was just a rookie in the immortal world, a rookie who could be easily crushed by others.
Just like that Monk Yuantong, Chang Xiao believed that if Monk Yuantong wanted to kill him, he would be able to kill him without any effort, whether it was the Great Thunder Sound spell or the supernatural power of the Heavenly Eye.
Let’s talk about Qing Niao. Chang Xiao prides himself on his strength, but after meeting Qing Niao, he can’t handle it at all. They clashed several times, but Qing Niao easily resolved them all. He couldn’t gain the upper hand at all. Chang Xiao thought about it, if it was a one-on-one fair duel.
If so, Qing Niao can crush him as well.
There are many others. Even the witch Lan Guang, who suffered the most under his hands, Chang Xiao felt that she was very threatening to him. If he had not conquered her physically, Chang Xiao would have to be careful to guard against her now.
It seems that everyone is better than Chang Xiao. On the Immortal Path, he is just a layman groping through the door. This is the source of Chang Xiao’s sense of crisis. If he has never seen an Immortal figure or tried Immortal means, Chang Xiao will definitely not know how to do it.
He had this sense of crisis because he had no connection with the Immortal Way, but after he came into contact with the Immortal Way and touched the gate of the Immortal Way, Chang Xiao was determined to go in and take a look.
If he wants to go in, he will naturally have to face many things that ordinary people can't touch, and there are all kinds of dangers. He has just glimpsed the door, and he has already experienced life and death several times. You can imagine what will happen after entering.
But things are different now. Chang Xiao deeply believes that as long as he can create what he wants to build, then these people will be nothing in front of him. He has already seen Feijian, and it is indeed amazing, but building it with him
Compared with other things, it is only half a pound, not even as good as what he wants to build. Chang Xiao is convinced that as long as he builds the thing, Qing Niao, no matter how tactful, before he takes action, Chang Xiao will send them to the west.
.
A gun! It’s a gun! It’s not a stick-like thing like a musket, but a conceptual gun like Chang Xiao’s previous life!
Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to build something like a gun without the support of large industry, but Chang Xiao did not need large industry. He found that as long as a cultivator cultivated the true energy, a person could use the true energy to do it.
Build guns.
Take that kind of seamless steel pipe as an example. It is not easy to create it in this era. Of course, some unorthodox methods such as wire winding are not ruled out, but if you want to create the kind of seamless steel pipe that Chang Xiao created at this time,
Seamless steel pipes of this quality, and steel pipes with wires inside, are really too difficult for craftsmen in this world.
But this problem is not difficult for Chang Xiao at all. Zhenqi is like a powerful furnace, which can forge gold and iron into things that can be kneaded at will like mud. The mind is like a craftsman, and under the influence of Chang Xiao's thoughts, the
The mud-like metal can be molded into any shape he wants. It's very simple.
This forging method is understood by all cultivators, but they will not use Qi to smelt gold and iron like Chang Xiao does, because this is meaningless to them. At most, they can only create one or two pieces of better quality.
Weapons are nothing more than weapons. Weapons are completely worthless to them. What they need is the golden spirit in gold and iron, which is the essence of gold and iron. They put it into their belly and bake it in the alchemy furnace to create a magic weapon.
Flying swords are coming, this is the real topic! Using true energy to create a weapon is a stupid thing that takes a lot of effort. Only those with a lot of brains will do this.
They have never even thought about what they can do by using Qi to shape gold and iron, because this is a completely meaningless thing to them.
Things often develop and change when everyone takes it for granted!
Chang Xiao was different. Fortunately, he didn't know how to absorb the gold essence energy from gold and iron, otherwise he wouldn't have accidentally poured the true energy into gold and iron. He discovered that true energy could shape gold and iron and change its properties. Come to think of it,
If Chang Xiao could absorb the energy of the golden essence, he wouldn't think of making a gun now. I'm afraid he would be baking his magic flying sword in the alchemy furnace in his lower abdomen.
Chang Xiao's confidence in guns is unparalleled. Guns are his best method and the ultimate ultimate move to defeat the enemy.
Chang Xiao patted his face. The bullet looked simple, but it was more difficult to get than the gun body.
The bullets in Chang Xiao's previous life are divided into four parts in appearance: cartridge case, primer, propellant, and warhead. The warhead is made of soft lead core and covered with copper or steel back armor. Chang Xiao spent a lot of time on this.
, but I finally got it out. Now it’s time to find a way to add primer and propellant to it. This is not a simple matter of putting gunpowder into the bullet. The gunpowder used in various bullets has different ingredients.
Same, its shape is also different.
There are spherical, flaky, columnar, etc. This is because the contact surface of individual gunpowder is different, resulting in different burning speeds to control the time when the maximum pressure is generated.
Another way to control the burning speed is to add various surface treatments to the surface of the gunpowder particles to reduce their contact area. The propellant used in the bullet does not explode, but is a controlled combustion.
The propellant used in the pistol is a fast-burning type. Because the barrel of the pistol is short, it must reach the maximum pressure quickly. Because the relatively small charge is small, the maximum chamber pressure will not be too high. The rifle uses a slow-burning type because
The barrel of a rifle is long, allowing it to burn for a long time, and it has a lot of charges. If it is all burned in a short time, it will produce a huge maximum chamber pressure. Various propellants cannot be mixed at will. At the same time, different combinations
The primer and each type of bullet have a fixed formula.
In other words, a small thing like a bullet is definitely the crystallization of infinite wisdom, something that has been produced through the continuous accumulation of several generations. It is simply wishful thinking to rely on the wisdom of one or two people to create something like a bullet.
.
For Chang Xiao, the most challenging thing is not the gun body parts, but this small bullet.
If Chang Xiao hadn't been a soldier, he probably wouldn't have known such detailed information, let alone how to build a firearm. For ordinary people, they probably only know that a gun is composed of a barrel, a stock and a trigger, and the rest.
I don’t know anything about it, let alone what happens to a small bullet and the gunpowder in the bullet.
At this time, Chang Xiao took out a small bag of yellow powder from a large jar. In order to get out the yellow explosive, Chang Xiao almost blew himself up. This is why he rested for a long time before. This thing is
The manufacturing process is a very scary thing even for a person like Chang Xiao who possesses Qi and is familiar with the knowledge of explosives. It is more reliable and safer to synthesize this thing in a laboratory or factory.
Chang Xiao put the long strip of yellow gunpowder into the bullet case, compacted it and embedded the bullet head into it. He carefully completed it step by step. In fact, it was very simple at this step, but Chang Xiaolai's movements were very slow and very slow.
dignified.
This is a beginning, a beginning that belongs to Chang Xiao himself, using immortal magic to create powerful weapons of destruction for future generations. This idea is ridiculous even if you think about it, but it is indeed completed by Chang Xiao in this way!
Chang Xiao only made two finger-length bullets, one with yellow gunpowder and one with black gunpowder brought by Manager Lin. Although the yellow gunpowder was definitely more powerful, Chang Xiao still wanted to test the difference between the two!
Because he knows that the gun he built may only be able to shoot two bullets. If the gun is fired again, the strength of the barrel will not meet the requirements, and the accuracy will be reduced in all aspects. He wants to see the bullets using black powder and yellow powder.
What is the difference between gunpowder and bullets?
Because what he was building was a rifle, a sniper rifle! Maybe it was a sniper rifle! This gun had very high requirements for the barrel, and the seamless steel tube made by Chang Xiao could only be used once or twice.
It has to be said that Chang Xiao is a good shooter, but not a good gun maker. He originally thought that his familiarity with guns has reached the level of familiarity with his own body.
But when he started to build a gun, he realized that he was not familiar with guns at all. He could think of all the parts on the gun with his eyes closed, but when they were actually made, they were not even one millimeter off.
Neither can be assembled.
It's not just a matter of piecing it together. So Chang Xiao spent a lot of thought when building this rifle, and changed the plan countless times. What finally came out was such a weird thing. This gun, Chang Xiao used to think about it.
He had never seen it before. It was only when all the parts were made and put together that he saw this gun for the first time.
After the bullets were loaded, Chang Xiao raised the gun, put the butt of the gun on his shoulder, squinted slightly, and followed the crosshairs to aim at a fat sparrow on a tree outside the window.
Originally, this kind of sniper rifle should be equipped with a scope, but Chang Xiao doesn't need this for the time being, because although his eyesight is not as good as a telescope, it can still be used to see things six to seven hundred meters away. This gun
I'm afraid that's the furthest accurate range, and it may not even be reached.
With the gun in hand, Chang Xiao fell into an unspeakable emotion. Everything around him seemed to become far away. Only the gun and him were closely integrated. This feeling was something that even Chang Xiao had never experienced before.
A true fusion of man and gun. Chang Xiao later understood that guns made by calcining Zhenqi also have something in common with the magic flying sword. Although it is not as strong as the magic flying sword, it is still the same as the magic flying sword.
There is something completely different about cold gold and iron.
At this time, there was the sound of footsteps in the distance, and Chang Xiao reluctantly put down the gun. The gun was too big, too long, and too inconvenient. This was also the result of Chang Xiao's inexperience in refining steel and shaping it, just like practicing.
When writing, you should first write the same characters in large characters, and then start writing small characters after you become proficient.
Now Chang Xiao is basically able to control it freely. The continuous roasting of golden iron in the past few days has given Chang Xiao a lot of experience in controlling the infuriating energy of roasting golden iron. Chang Xiao's infuriating energy has also become stronger.
Chang Xiao plans to build a revolver when he has time. This kind of gun is simple to build and the principle is not complicated. It is most suitable for him. And most importantly, this kind of gun is relatively small and easy to carry around. It is also good at handling dumb bombs.
Simple.
You must know that the bullets made by Chang Xiao are all hand-made. In mechanized production, duds cannot be guaranteed, let alone the bullets made by Chang Xiao himself. It is not that the semi-automatic pistol Chang Xiao cannot make now, but it is true
It is not as convenient and convenient as a revolver. Of course, a revolver also has shortcomings, such as slow shooting speed, slow loading of bullets, etc. But from the perspective of choice, the revolver is more useful.
Chang Xiao thought aimlessly in his heart. At this time, the footsteps had already arrived at the door. They were Chang Fu.
"Sir, Butler Chang is waiting for you. Please go and see him."
Chang Xiao frowned slightly. Chang Sheng was a very measured person. He knew that he didn't like to see guests recently, so he usually didn't bother him. If he came here and asked to see him by all means, it meant that something was wrong.
Chang smiled and responded, then unloaded the bullet from the gun, completely disassembled the entire rifle into parts, and placed them in four or five places before flipping off his clothes and leaving the study.
There is indeed something wrong with Chang Sheng.
"My aunt has sent a message, asking the young master to come to the palace in three days."
