In particular, craftsmen engaged in such dangerous occupations need the state to cherish the bleak situation of their families after their death.
After doing some inspection, Su Yonglin is going to go back to the palace to arrange this matter.
Before going back, the craftsman who came up with the way to unify the iron core and copper body was born in Wang Tietou and mysteriously gathered in front of Su Yonglin and handed Su Yonglin his hand with a long pole.
"This is the picture you drew before. Do you think this can be used by soldiers?"
"Small gun?"
Su Yonglin didn’t react until he saw the "long pole" of the steel-toed hand of the king of Chu.
What is this fucking cannon?
This mother is a musket!
Su Yonglin remembered that he had a sudden interest when he came to inspect the firearms engineer, and he drew a picture of a matchlock gun and a picture of a flintlock gun to tell them that this thing was interesting, but it could be regarded as a very small gun.
But don’t look at it, the principle is almost as powerful as it is.
The main body of the matchlock gun is a thick iron pipe, and some auxiliary materials can be made of wood. There is a fire door behind the iron pipe, which can be filled with ignition propellant.
Then, like a cannon, the ammunition is inserted into the barrel from the front, and the trigger is compacted. The trigger is connected with a matchrope to ignite the matchrope. When you pull the trigger, the matchrope fire can ignite the gunpowder in the fire door and then ignite the gunpowder in the barrel, so that the principle of bullet firing is the same as that of cannon firing.
It is a miniature single-person gun, such as the Buffelan machine, and it can be carried by one person.
The principle of flint gun is similar to that of matchlock gun, but it has more technical advantages than matchlock gun, because flint ignition station can install a sickle in the powder room as the fire door cover.
When launching, the flint directly hits the flint to generate sparks, so it is not necessary to open the fire door cover like a matchlock gun, so that even if it encounters some wind and rain, it is not worried that the powder will be wet or blown off by the wind.
However, it is difficult for flint gun to need qualified spring to have enough power for flint to ignite Mars to ignite gunpowder and then launch a bomb. If the spring is not good or the quality of flint is not good, the ignition success rate is not as good as that of matchlock gun.
At that time, Su Yonglin was interested and talked with several craftsmen Balabala for a long time, from the elasticity of wood and animal tendons to the power of steel elastic flintlock.
Of course, Su Yonglin didn’t expect their experts to rub muskets out. He felt that they should just do a good job of artillery for the time being. The significance of artillery is great now.
But he didn’t expect the wisdom of the people to be exhausted, so he really rubbed a matchlock gun for him.
What a tough guy! It’s amazing that Su Yonglin can still fight with a matchlock.
"Can you fight?"
"Yes!"
Wang Tietou smiled and took out a piece of matchlock from his pocket. "Didn’t you say that before? There’s a thing about matchrope. If you can’t just rub it out, you have to pee in it for a day and then dry it before you can slowly ignite it. So I tossed a matchrope myself. "
When Wang Tietou finished speaking here, there were craftsmen laughing there.
"I said, why does your room smell like urine? You’re also careless about urinating everywhere."
"Fuck you, where does urine smell?"
"You don’t admit it, do you? That smell stinks! Why don’t you open the window? Fire, right? Hurry up and pay for the medicine to eat and go to the fire! "
"You are hot!"
Wang Tietou is obviously good with the craftsman. They quarreled and mixed for a while, but he didn’t slow down manually.
Chapter 921 Industrial Shuguang
Wang Tie-tou is skilled in the previous process of firing a matchlock gun.
Pour a certain amount of gunpowder into the barrel and then put a thin piece of cloth wrapped in a round bullet into the muzzle.
"You said before that this iron had better be about the same size as the muzzle, so it can be played farther and more powerful, and it is better to wrap it in linen with a little bit of oil, so it is easy to go in.
Then I polished a few pieces of iron about the size of the muzzle, and it was quite easy to put a little oil in a small piece of thin cloth, and then this rod poked a few times into it to solidify the barrel. "
Here, Wang Tietou poked the bullet into the barrel for a while and added some gunpowder to the firebox room. Then he asked Su Yonglin to hold the gun. He lit the matchlock and clamped the lighted end with the gun body.
"That’s about it. You try it?"
Wang Tietou looked at Su Yonglin with a full face of hope
Su Yonglin looked at him skillfully and laughed. "Have you tried?"
"Of course bad things which can let you? I tried it at first, especially if there are too many drugs, I will fry less and I can’t hit it. If there is a problem, I will adjust it slightly. Now the ignition is much better. At first, I can’t light it for several times. "
Wang Tietou smiled with a simple smile. "Don’t tighten your body and relax a little. Although this thing is light, it has a great recoil."
Su Yonglin was a little touched.
This process is easy, but every step is risky, and blasting is the biggest danger.
Nodded Su Yonglin took this matchlock gun and went out of the door. More than ten meters away from the Kuang place is a wooden box.
Su Yonglin took aim at the wooden box with a gun in a kind way that made him feel inexplicable, and then pulled the trigger to ignite the gunpowder in the fire door room.
As soon as he was inexplicably familiar with the recoil after the gunshot, he felt a quiver and could not help but take a step back.
With the cracking sound, Su Yonglin’s hand dispelled the floating smoke, and he was quite surprised to see that it was directly broken into several wooden cases.
Is this matchlock that powerful?
He carefully thought about it, which is probably related to the fact that the military ordnance department has been improving granular powder for several years.
Their gunpowder is obviously stronger and more powerful than ordinary powdered gunpowder, and this thin cloth wrapped in ammunition and stuffed into the barrel also plays a certain role
It seems that once this type of matchlock gun can be mass-produced, it will greatly increase the combat effectiveness of the army.
"Good job"
Su Yonglin walked over to Wang Tietou and patted him on the shoulder. "How much effort did it take to make this gun?"
"I’ve been busy with artillery for six or seven months. It’s all a matter of taking time and tinkering. When I did it, I also wasted several debugging and one. This one was also repaired and modified for more than half a month before I dared to show it to you. How good is it?"
"It’s not bad. It’s beyond my imagination. Have you tried to hit the real armor?"
Su Yonglin loves this matchlock gun fondle admiringly.
Wang Tietou was very surprised.
"ah? Playing real armor? Then how can it be? How expensive the real armor is! It’s not our turn to wear a good soldier in melee. "
"This matchlock gun if you can’t play real shield I want it? I’m telling you, I can! I’m sure I can break armor and deal with real armor much better than a strong crossbow! You go to them and ask them for real armor for the scarecrow to wear for the experiment, just say, "I said."
Su Yonglin was very happy to call Qiu Yuan and handed this matchlock gun to Qiu Yuan.
"Casting guns at the same time gives a team to Wang Tietou, the foreman of Wang Tietou, and gives me a thorough understanding of every production process of this matchlock gun, which simplifies the mass production of this gun when I give you some."
"ah? This is also mass production? "
Qiu Yuan took the matchlock gun and looked left and right and then at Wang Tietou. "Steelhead, didn’t you say this thing wouldn’t work in rainy and windy days?"
Wang Tietou looked at Su Yonglin.
Su Yonglin nodded with a smile. "It’s true that rainy and windy days don’t work, but it’s a question of whether and when it can be done. Now we have to solve the problem of whether there is any problem. If we can solve this problem, most of the working procedures will be completed."
"By the way, I also saw and polished that flintlock gun."
Wang Tietou turned back to his room and took out a gun with a clap of his head.
"Done?"
Su Yonglin’s eyes were wide open, and he was really surprised that he had met a craftsman. He succeeded in rubbing flintlock with some artistic values greater than making value pictures.
But when he saw it, he knew he was thinking too much.
"The sample is such a flint. I also found the sickle and ground it as you said, but this trigger and spring … are a little difficult. It may take some time to succeed."
Wang Tietou pointed to Su Yonglin, a half-finished flintlock. Su Yonglin looked intently and suddenly felt that he might really have met a craftsman.
This hand rubbing can rub the flint gun to this extent, including the flint clip and the flint, all of which are rubbed out by his hand, that is to say, the firing machine is a bit confusing, so it is still necessary to make this gun look at it.
But it’s already very remarkable, at least the appearance has reached the point of fusillade.
Su Yonglin looked at Wang Tietou carefully and wondered if he could directly hand over the rifling and lathe work to him. After three or two years, maybe he could directly come up with a modern car.
Sure enough, the law of historical development certainly limits the overall progress of the human world, but the subjective initiative of individual human beings is not to be underestimated
Large-scale industrial production requires industrialization and fool-like exercise of regulations, but it can be done by three or two hands alone.
Although all this has just begun, Su Yonglin always feels that he is eager for the future and it is not far away.
Su Yonglin feels that she has seen the future picture.
In the near future, musketeers in the big army can form a line with muskets. With the commander’s order, a whole piece of white smoke will be produced, which will reduce the dimension of Song Jun, who is not familiar with muskets, and make them go backwards one after another.
