Standoff III
A group of officials, carefully holding a bamboo box containing glassware, walked down the mountain. The trip to the Academy of Sciences was very fruitful, and everyone was elated.
Except for Lu Xiufu, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty walked at the end of the line with his empty hands, and his thin shadow was hung by the slanting sun on the side of the mountain road, which was incompatible with the excited crowd in front of him and Wen Tianxiang who was leisurely beside him.
Before coming to Fujian, Lord Lu Xiufu was full of pride and was ready to persuade Wen Tianxiang and his generals to return to the "right path". Unexpectedly, the "learning period" was about to end, but instead of pulling one of Wen Tianxiang's subordinates over, the people he brought with him were unconsciously attracted by the Broken Army. Lu Xiufu knew that if Wen Tianxiang made a statement at this moment to keep himself and bring this group of officials from the Ministry of Works, it was estimated that half of them would choose to stay.
It was not just out of righteousness, or inspired by Wen Tianxiang's personal charm, but the hope that here, the hope of the country could be felt more clearly.
"Wen Xiang, if I want to re-establish a hundred workshops in the Ministry of Industry, such an academy of sciences, I don't know when it will be completed?" Forcibly suppressing the emotion in his heart, Lu Xiufu asked Wen Tianxiang in a low voice.
"From the establishment of the Academy of Sciences to the beginning of the scale, it lasted more than a year and a half. At present, the Academy of Sciences is just carrying forward the original skills of overseas countries and China. If it can really make a difference, I am afraid it will not be possible without ten years of work! Wen Tianxiang replied truthfully.
The establishment of the Academy of Sciences was not a whim of his. Huaxia has been repeatedly invaded by foreign tribes, and every time there is chaos, a lot of skills are lost. Under the dual suppression of Confucianism and foreign invasion, the pace of civilization development became slower and slower. Until Wen Zhong's time, he fell far behind the world. The establishment of the Academy of Sciences can not only hand over the content of Wenzhong's memory to everyone to sort out and digest, but also play a role in summarizing, inheriting and continuing the wisdom of predecessors.
"If I copy it, all copy your Academy of Sciences, the literary appearance is magnificent, and I will definitely not hide it from the court!" Lu Xiufu continued to ask unwillingly. While everyone was admiring the glassware, Wen Tianxiang once disappeared into the depths of the cave for a while. The careful Lu Xiufu knew that the Broken Army still had secrets that had not been revealed, and he secretly had a mustard in his heart.
"It's hard unless you copy my system. The light moves the process, and it can be managed for a while, but it can't be managed for a lifetime! Wen Tianxiang's words once again hit Lu Xiufu deeply.
The Great Song army needed sophisticated weapons to improve its combat capabilities. But the fate of the Great Song Dynasty is not something that one or two new inventions can undo. The things in the Academy of Sciences seem mysterious, but Wen Tianxiang himself knows that all the inventions in it, including glassmaking and metallurgical technology, are things that have existed in China since ancient times. The glass process has been around in China for thousands of years, and the steel-filled process came from the Northern and Southern Dynasties. Even the Broken Bow, which is regarded as a secret weapon by everyone, is not an epoch-making product, but the original Huanghua, Black Lacquer and Divine Arm Bow of the Great Song Dynasty are definitely not worse than it in terms of range and power.
However, whether it is glass manufacturing or metallurgical technology, for thousands of years, no one has thought of scaling and refining it. Glass has appeared for thousands of years, and it is still in the state of glazed products. Gunpowder has been around for hundreds of years, but there is still no great progress in the proportion. Even worse was the bow and arrow manufacturing technology, before the Mongols marched south, the ordnance superintendent took out three bows at random, and two of them were unqualified. The Song people, who were originally thin and weak, with inferior weapons, naturally only had to be beaten in front of the Mongol army!
What causes these tragedies to happen? Is it because of Confucianism's consistent contempt for hundreds of workers, the romance of literati, or the carelessness of national character? Wen Tianxiang had no answer in his heart. But he knows that these tragic results can be changed through division of labor, collaboration, and through the kind of precision and standardized management and quality supervision between workshops. It is also possible to influence the way a person thinks. Let them be more practical, and encounter problems from the number and degree of insufficiency, rather than simply denying or affirming. So, these days, he has been trying his best to show Lu Hideo and others the new management system and operation mode, and not focus on showing off new products. However, it is obvious that his good intentions have had little effect, and his old friend Lu Xiufu's views on the problem are still on the surface, thinking that one imitation can solve all kinds of problems. With this way of thinking, when you encounter a setback, it is easy to reject all aspects of progress and go back to the old ways.
"System?" Lu Xiufu intuitively felt that Wen Tianxiang was trying to persuade himself to accept his set of things again, so he hesitated and remained silent.
Wen Tianxiang knew that he couldn't convince Lu Xiufu for a while, so he didn't continue the relevant topic. As he walked forward, he said: "I have prepared the modules, instruments, and patterns for making steel crossbows for you, and they have been shipped to Fuzhou for loading." When you return to Guangzhou, you can start work. These water hammers and furnaces of the Academy of Sciences, if they are related to ordnance manufacturing, which one Junshi likes, I will ask Xiao Zizhao to make one for you. How does the workshop work, you just have to give it a try. But the immediate priority is to arm all the people of the imperial court. I will also try my best to supply you with a part of the finished products every month, and the Ministry of Engineering should also hurry up. We can't let the Great Song warriors hold bamboo poles anymore and fight the enemy army wearing heavy armor! ”
Before the musket came out, Wen Tianxiang naturally didn't dare to supply too much of the imperial court's horse steel crossbow. He needed to use the supply of steel crossbows as a means to push all forces in the court to actively resist the Yuan. Ken and the generals who worked hard with the Tartars naturally got more steel crossbows. And today Xiao Zi came up with a design plan for the musket, and the number of steel crossbows for the imperial court in the future can be appropriately increased. One can make the people of the Xingchao leap in combat effectiveness in a short period of time. The second can ease the contradictions between the two sides and delay the time of the final showdown. Although Xiao Zi and others designed the musket, compared with the sharp weapon in Wen Zhong's memory, at most it was a gunpowder gun for hunting, without bullet casing, and without rifling (note: the line pattern on the steel pipe is the pattern after the weld is smoothed, not rifling, please do not assume it), the range and rate of fire cannot be compared with the firearms of later generations, and the firing method is not as good as a waterproof flintlock pistol...... But from cold weapons to firearms, firearms are a key step. It is also a key link in the victory of sedentary civilization over nomadic predatory civilization in human history.
"That's natural, but Wen Xiang wants to ensure that the supply of steel is available! There is no iron mine in Quang Nam, so at this time, I am afraid it will be too late to mobilize people to find it! Lu Xiufu was worried, and his pace was getting slower and slower. Far behind the line. Before I came, I thought it was too simple to make weapons. After staying in Shaowu for a long time, I found that the related industries are almost one ring after another. If the first link does not develop, the overall speed will slow down. Even if it is the Broken Army, not all soldiers can be equipped with steel crossbows and Mingguang Kai.
"I'll do my best here!" Wen Tianxiang didn't dare to promise his words too much, and said euphemistically: "Don't hide it from you, we only have a place all the way, there are not many mines, and it is not easy to get mines." The prisoners captured in the battle of Fujian, and those who committed heavy crimes, were all filled into the mines, and the daily supply of minerals is still not enough..."
Under the current rudimentary conditions, ore production is extremely low. The number of prisoners of atonement in the mines is decreasing every month. And the act of forcing the people to die, the army could not do it. Therefore, iron ore is currently the most sought-after material in Fujian, and all fleets have received orders from the Broken Army, but the Northern Yuan side was ruined by the Mongols, and there is not much ore to supply.
"Alas!" Lu Xiufu let out a low sigh, unhappy in his heart, and slapped his hand on the bamboo on the side of the road. He didn't believe Wen Tianxiang's words very much. In his eyes, the reason why Wen Tianxiang said this was nothing more than to use this to blackmail the imperial court and seek more benefits for himself and the Broken Army.
"Are you really worried about the government?" Wen Tianxiang slowed down and joked with a smile. "If you live in a high temple, you will worry about its people, and if you are far away from the rivers and lakes, you will worry about its king. It is said that the advance is also worried, and the retreat is also worried. Junshi just shot this time, which is deeply ancient! ”
Brother Rui laughed. Junshi is a scholar, and he has no power to restrain chickens. In this chaotic world, worry is also worry! Lu Xiufu blushed and replied stupidly, with a sour taste in his words, "It's Song Rui who has one side and has 100,000 armor, which is a good time to make contributions!" ”
"Junshi has the intention to kill thieves, why not join hands with Song Rui!" Wen Tianxiang smiled, not caring at all about the ridicule in Lu Xiufu's words. They stand in different positions and look at problems from different angles, and some things are useless if they talk too much. It is better to seek common ground while reserving differences, and work together to deal with foreign enemies first.
"Brother Meng Song Rui carries love, but Junshi has no soldiers and no generals in his hands, how can he join hands with Brother Song Rui!" Lu Xiufu hugged his fists and let Wen Tianxiang touch a soft nail.
"In Junshi's chest, there are clearly 100,000 iron armors hidden, how can there be no soldiers!" Wen Tianxiang smiled and patted Lu Xiufu's chest, "If Junshi can use what he has learned in his chest, he will keep the court stable." Let the front-line soldiers have no worries, this contribution has been better than 100,000 iron armor. Jun Shi thought about it carefully, the first few defeats of my Great Song Dynasty and the Northern Yuan Dynasty against the enemy, which one was not the defeat in the bloody battle of the soldiers on the front line, but the court in the rear was in control, and between the war and the peace, it was caused by indecisiveness! ”
"Brother Rui's words are implying that I am in the court and saying good things for the Broken Army! Dean Xiao once gave such a generous gift, which also implied this meaning! Lu Xiufu sneered, pointed to the bamboo basket in the hands of the officials in front of him and asked.
This Lu Junshi is really a little pedantic. Wen Tianxiang shrugged, a little helpless at Lu Xiufu's stubbornness. Now that the Great Song Dynasty has a place to settle down, as soon as the external pressure is lifted, internal strife will definitely begin again. The struggle between the main battle and the main peace, the struggle for the power of the army, and the struggle for the direction of the counteroffensive are all based on their own calculations. Fighting back and forth, without waiting for Beiyuan to make a move, his military morale was chaotic again. As the head of the civil service, Lu Xiufu did not think about how to integrate various dissidents and work together to resist the Yuan. On the contrary, he was bent on the idea of plotting to break the captive army, and his vision was a little too short-sighted.
Compared with the great cause of expelling the Tartars, how will China develop in the future, and which path to take to develop, is it really important?
"How Jun Shi behaves in the court, I don't think Song Rui needs to be taught. Everything is light, heavy, slow, and urgent, if the troops of the Northern Yuan Dynasty go south again, I think it will not be easy to resist with the army alone, or with the strength of the Jianghuai army alone. If the armies of the four routes, such as the Breaking Capture, the Xing Song Dynasty, the Jianghuai Army, and the Fuxing Army, take care of each other and work together, it may not be impossible to repeat the great victory of Fujian. Back then, the Sun and Liu families each had their own masters, and they also knew who belonged to Cao first, and then fought for who belonged to the world. Now that Junshi knows that I don't have the heart to fight for the world, can't the differences between you and me wait until the Tartars are driven back to Jiangbei and the Song family turns the corner to safety! Wen Tianxiang was solemn, and his tone slowly became tough. Junshi is the ruler, and he should know the responsibility of the ruler, which is to balance the government and the opposition, so that the heroes of the world can work together and unite with the outside world. If you are in a high position, you can't get half of the mind and bearing of the prime minister, and you are blindly entangled in the details. I'm afraid that a hundred years later, the historian will write that the person who mistook me for the fortune of the Great Song Dynasty is not Chen Yizhong, nor is it me Song Rui! ”
"You!" The fire in Lu Xiufu's heart was ignited all of a sudden, he was more than strong and lacked tenacity. After failing to persuade Wen Tianxiang, he saw the thriving style of Fujian again, and in addition to being frustrated, he inevitably had the idea of giving up on himself. Excited by Wen Tianxiang's words, he suddenly woke up, pointed at Wen Tianxiang's hand trembled for a long time, and slowly drooped down.
"Junshi's talent and mind, Song Rui has always been convinced. At this time, the world is in turmoil, and it is the opportunity for my generation to save the sky and show the true colors of heroes. Junshi stood on the court and kept the rear of my Great Song Dynasty safe. Song Rui marched in front of the two armies and defended our Chinese army in a hundred battles. You and I are of the same heart inside and outside, and we will drive out the Tartars and return my rivers and mountains. At that time, which system is beneficial to the people of our country, and which system to choose, why bother fighting at this time. If you lose both, wouldn't it be cheaper to get a tartar! Wen Tianxiang saw that Lu Xiufu was moved by his words, and struck while the iron was hot. He believed that Lu Xiufu's personality would be very beneficial to the development of the army and the great cause of resisting the Yuan Dynasty if he could convince this person who was famous and influential around the emperor, and win more sympathy and support for the army in the court. At least, Zou Wei and others in the Broken Army who have a deep heart for the Great Song Dynasty will not be forced to choose between the imperial court and the Broken Army too soon.
"Lu did his best, but he wanted to be worthy of his heart and the court!" After pondering for a long time, Lu Xiufu finally gave Wen Tianxiang an affirmative answer.
"I won't let Junshi go against his heart. If he finds out what I have done, it is not for the sake of the country and the people, and it is the responsibility of the prime minister to eliminate traitors for the country. Wen didn't dare to complain! Wen Tianxiang stretched out his hand and faced Lu Xiufu with his palm.
Lu Xiufu's heart was hot, he stretched out his hand and slapped Wen Tianxiang's hand heavily. The resentment and struggle in his chest were swept away.
"Just Brother Yiwen, we will act and think of the country first!"
"Naturally, Junshi finally recognized the word "country" I said!" Wen Tianxiang smiled and walked side by side with Mrs. Lu Xiu, feeling indescribably happy.
"Not necessarily, the country I approve of may not be the country you define. Brother Wen, don't deceive me with sophistry. Lu Xiufu smiled, his heart was revealed, but he still refused to accept it in his mouth, "In Brother Wen's words, if the Tartars dominate the mountains and rivers and can treat the people well, my generation will also recognize it as the Zhengshuo of China?" ”
"Junshi has set a big trap for Song Rui to drill, I'm afraid that Song Rui can say a 'yes', and his reputation can catch up with Qin Hui and his ilk a hundred years ago!" Wen Tianxiang looked up to the sky and laughed, so shocked that the officials walking on the mountain road in front of him turned back one after another, "The Tartar has lived in my Central Plains for more than a hundred years, is he a Chinese person, has he fulfilled the obligations of a countryman?" Do the Tartars only know how to burn, kill and loot, and treat our people as equals? Those who have lived in the land of China and are willing to treat other ethnic groups as equals are qualified to compete for this righteousness. These man-eating beasts don't even have the qualifications to be selected, so how can they say it! ”
"It turns out that what Brother Wen said that day is this truth!" Lu Xiufu suddenly realized, tasted it carefully, although he did not fully agree with Wen Tianxiang's statement about the imperial court and the country, but he faintly understood the wisdom contained in this statement.
"I have ruled the country for more than 300 years in the Great Song Dynasty, and I regard all ethnic groups in the world as one family. It has never been stipulated that a race is born a slave and a nation is born a master. Even if it is the original color eye person of Wanli, as long as he is willing to read my Great Song poetry books and abide by my Great Song Dynasty laws, he can apply for my Great Song imperial examination. There are no less than 100 foreigners who are officials in the court and in the locality. Yes, the Great Song Dynasty can be the Chinese Zhengshuo. At this time of national crisis, the people of all ethnic groups should work together to expel the Tartars! Wen Tianxiang explained loudly, and the voice echoed along the mountain.
"In this land, no matter what nationality, as long as you are not willing to be slaves to outsiders, it is me Chinese!" The grievances of the past can be put down, and after the external humiliation is driven away, everyone can make a contract and make an appointment with brothers! ”
There are some words that he can't say clearly, and he needs Lu Xiufu and others to understand them themselves. Through slaughter and common plundering interests, the Mongols brought hundreds of ethnic groups together, so that the Mongols burst out with the power to devour the world in an instant. The Great Song Dynasty and China should have a broader mind than the Mongols, and through their thirst for equality and freedom, and their desire for personal happiness, they brought together the Han people, Nan people, Jurchens, Khitans, Dangxiang, Miao, Zhuang and other ethnic groups in the land of China to form a new nation. Whatever the name of this nation will be in the future, their blood will be linked in the battle for equality, and they will stand tall among the nations of the world. In a few hundred or thousands of years, this nation will have a common name that will not die for thousands of years. It's like the two words that have been fused into China after hundreds of years of blood and fire in another time and space.
"Junshi is taught! Will do our best to do this! Lu Xiufu saluted again. Although he still adhered to the concept of Confucianism and loyalty to the imperial court in his heart, in his mind, he finally realized the meaning of Wen Tianxiang's Chinese. These three words, compared to Han, Song, and Huayi, are easier to unite more people. And uniting all those who can be united is what is urgently needed to save the fate of the Great Song Dynasty at this time.
"It is Song Rui's luck to be able to join hands with Junshi again. Get drunk tonight! ”
"I have this heart, this glass of wine, Junshi has been looking forward to it for a long time!" Lu Xiufu replied with a smile, tears flashing in his eyes.
The choice of path is different, and the concept of governing is different, but the friendship of the day is there. If Wen Tianxiang is really killed at the foot of Wenpu Mountain, Lu Xiufu knows that he will definitely regret it, and he will not be safe in his life.
Put aside the controversy and join hands to fight the enemy. Although it may be inevitable that the sword soldiers will meet in the end, before the last moment comes, even if it is five years or ten years, at least before the Tartars return to Mobei, they can be happy, drink a glass of wine frankly, and try to get drunk once.
Who said that the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, and when it is thick, it is as clear as blood.
------------
The following does not count as a word count.
Regarding the construction of guns, I didn't write detailed steps, because I don't like to use information to make up the number of words to cheat money, and I don't like to write any guides, etc., to show that I am profound. Since everyone has a lot of opinions, I had to post the information I found one by one. When authors write articles, especially those that science and technology should have, they usually need to find enough information to confirm whether it is feasible, and readers who do not check the evidence will completely rely on subjective assumptions to deny it, and be frustrated.
The pipe making method in the book comes directly from "Tiangong Kaiwu" and "Ji Xiao Xinshu", but it only makes the cold bones in it rotable, which increases the speed and uniformity of pipe making.
Song Yingxing's "Heavenly Creations" said: "Where the hammer bird is hammered, the iron is first made of a piece as big as a chopstick, and it is wrapped in a red iron hammer. The first is three connections, the interface is red, and it is trying its best to collide. After the combination, the quadrangular steel cone is used as a big one, and it is rotated through it to make the aurora clean, and there is no blockage in the medicine. Although the firing technology of muskets in China has been improved several times, the manufacturing process of guns was not completely abandoned until the rise of the Westernization Movement in the late Qing Dynasty.
At that time, the process of making the bird gun was extremely complex, requiring the craftsmen to make the gun to be extremely highly skilled, and the manufacturing method was similar to that in China and Japan, mainly two methods: three-stage joint type and double-layer composite type. The three-stage articulation is the kind mentioned in "Heavenly Creation". The method is to make the gun pipe first, and the gun pipe is made of wrought iron section by section, generally two or three sections, and finally welded into one. The double-layer composite type was first seen in Qi Jiguang's "New Book of Ji Xiao" "Hand and Foot Chapter": "The price of the bird gun is often smelted iron, and the two are encompassing. "This process, contrary to the previous one, is to make a thin layer of the gun directly on a long steel core, and then cover another layer of the gun body to make it meet the required thickness. According to these two methods to manufacture the gun, the process flow is different, first describe the first three-stage joint.
The first step is tube making. Prepare a steel core of a cylinder about 30 centimeters long and about 7 millimeters in diameter to make cold bones, first burn the wrought iron to make the pipe until it is red-hot, and then the craftsman takes out the blank that has been burned to a certain temperature, knocks the hot wrought iron outside the steel core with a hammer, and rolls it into an iron pipe. And in the process of cladding iron, the steel core is constantly extracted and cooled with water to prevent the steel core and wrought iron from being welded together. The thickness of the rolled iron pipe should also be about one centimeter. In this way, the gun tube is strong and can withstand more than a dozen consecutive launches.
The second step is welding. Because the long guns of more than three feet are welded in sections, so the guns that are not well welded are easy to be fried and bored, and the craftsmen regard whether the seamless guns are welded as the key to the success or failure of the guns. In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the craftsmen of the Ming army took advantage of the Japanese invasion and caused many accidents. It is recorded in the "New Book of Ji Xiao": "Recently, there are few people who are aware of the pain in this area, and they do not complain and really instruct the craftsmen, and listen to them roll into iron cylinders, with uneven thickness and thickness······ Even a single tube is rolled into a single tube, and it is blown up and damaged. (The winding method of the monotube is connected to the second manufacturing process of the barrel), so from these records, it can be seen that the army has strict requirements for the quality of the bird's gun.
The above method is made of iron pipes and then burned in the furnace to incandescent, and a steel core is also prepared, the thickness is the same as above, and the length should be longer than the length of the gun. Then the iron pipe that has been burned to red and bright is sleeved on the steel core, and the iron pipe interface is vigorously smashed into one by the master craftsman, and at the same time of welding the iron pipe, the auxiliary hammer hand also sprinkles white copper powder on the welding mouth of the iron pipe, and the copper has an affinity effect, which can make the welding mouth stronger, and not to leave a fault or virtual welding. The steel core should also be extracted and cooled at any time, and the iron pipe should be heated while cooling the steel core. The final iron pipe is the prototype of the gun pipe.
The double-layer composite gun body is different from the above method, it is directly wrapped with red iron on a one-meter-long steel core, when the first layer of iron is wrapped, another layer is wrapped on this layer of the gun body, so that the joint of the inner gun is wrapped by the outer layer of the gun body to form a complex. From a technical point of view, the double-layer composite gun is more scientific than the three-stage joint gun, and the gun body joint is stronger, although this kind of gun tube can not make a very long bird gun tube, but the caliber can be made larger than the first bird gun, so the power is also greater in a limited distance. (In Japan, this large-caliber short-bodied bird gun is called an iron cannon.) It's just that the Ming and Qing dynasties lacked knowledge of ballistics, and it was believed that the longer the bird gun, the more powerful it was, so that in order to increase the length of the bird gun in the later period, the gun body was rolled into a single tube.
The third step is trimming. In the early days, the bird gun tube was often made into an octagonal shape, with one end of the body thick and one end thin, the thick one made the belly of the gun, and the thin one made the mouth. The crosshairs are welded in the same way after the bolt body is welded. The crosshair and the illumination are just two protrusions before they are processed and have no effect. Before welding, the fire table and the fire table have been pre-drilled with fire transmission holes, and they should be welded in line with the position of the fire transmission holes, and should not be blocked. At this time, the bird gun is still a rough embryo, and the craftsman has to drill out the gun boring again to frustrate the crosshair. Due to the limitations of the process at that time, the steel core section is not pure round, and the core is not straight, and the boring is rough and uneven. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, there was this kind of drilling machine, which was framed with wood, and the round stone disc was used as an inertia wheel, and the leather strip was tied and pulled by manpower to make the stone disc drive the drill bit to rotate. In the Ming Dynasty, good drill bits and frustration knives and other tools made of hard steel were made of fallen steel, and the rigidity was not very hard, so half of the time to make bird guns was drilled and scraped. It can last up to a month. "Ji Xiao Xinshu" recorded: "(Bird) the original hole is very small, drill it with a steel drill, drill an inch a day, until the end, and drill light in January." It can be seen that the output of the gun-making workshop at that time was not very high, because under this process, the large number of skilled workers and a large number of equipment required could not be guaranteed for the Ministry of Industry, and the emperor was not so concerned about advanced weapons, otherwise firearms could fully show their power in several major battles in the late Ming Dynasty, and perhaps rewrite history.
In the war at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang's troops had already made extensive use of firearms, and Jiao Yu, the first to offer thunderbolts to him, was named a general. At that time, it was less than a hundred years after the death of the Song Dynasty. The musket written in the book is inferior to the arquebus in terms of ignition method and waterproof effect. Originally, it was planned to let the Ministry of Literature improve in actual combat in the later stage, but it seems that most readers still think that the progress is too fast.
Take a look at a few Ming Dynasty firearms:
Bird gun: Individual arquebus, the Ming army based on the captured Japanese iron cannon to study and improve. The barrel is made of wrought iron, weighing about 5-6 catties, and the ratio of the fire gun is increased to increase the crosshair, and the trigger clamp is used to ignite the fire rope, and the curved butt is installed, the barrel is slender, and the caliber ratio is between 50 and 70 times. The fire door has a cover, and a faucet arquebus is used, and one arquebus can be fired many times without extinguishing. The caliber of the bird gun is between 0.9~1.3 cm, and the range can reach about 300 meters. The total length of the gun is 112 cm - 150
centimeters, compared with various firearms (firegate guns) before the middle of the Ming Dynasty, it has a long barrel, small caliber, light weight,
It is easy to use infantry, cavalry. In the late Ming Dynasty, shotguns were already the main equipment of the Ming army. Each shotgunner is equipped
There were 2 gunpowder canisters, one for propellant and one for priming gunpowder, carrying 300 rounds of lead bullets.
Lumi Gun: A single arquebus, created on the basis of a shotgun paid by the Lumi Kingdom (Turkey). The total length of the gun is 5-7 feet, the weight is 6-8 catties, the pipe length is 4 feet 5 inches, the front is a quasi-star, and the rear is set up with a door, and the mulberry or willow wood is made of gun. The butt has a steel blade at the end, and when the enemy approaches, it is reversed to be used as a saber. This gun has a long range and great power, and it is also superior to the beak gun in structure. "Wu Bei Zhi" said: "Bird milling: only the farthest and most poisonous."
Three-eyed gun: 3 single-arm handguns, made of 3 single-arm guns around the handle of parallel hoops, finished font type, each with a protruding outer edge, sharing a tail, single gun caliber 15 mm, total length 350-450 mm, all have medicine chamber and fire door, can be fired continuously. After shooting, it can be used as a hammer to hit the enemy.
Self-generated firebolt: a kind of percussion-type flintlock pistol invented by Bi Maokang, the right servant of Nanjing's household, has no big difference in structure and performance from the rifled bird gun, mainly because of the improved ignition device, the fire rope ignition method, and improved to flint fire. The flint is clamped on the hammer, and the head of the buckle plate machine is pressed down, and the flint is rubbed against the flint due to the effect of the spring. In this way, not only did it overcome the difficulties caused by wind and rain on shooting, but it also did not need to press the dragon head with your hand, the shooting accuracy was more accurate, and it could be fired at any time under various circumstances.
If a person with modern military thinking goes back to the late Song Dynasty, I think the first thing he wants to do is to make muskets. After all, he may not be able to learn these things, and he may not have the opportunity. The musket, on the other hand, has been proven by history to be a sharp weapon to restrain the nomads. There is only one military ratio of black powder, and the pipe making technology has matured in the late Qing Dynasty. As for the ignition method, thundermercury is used to fire modern safety gunpowder. Black powder, on the other hand, has been used for hundreds of years, and is usually fired by arquebuses and flints, without others, without bullet casings, and can be ignited by fire, so it is not so complicated.
