Chapter 906: Enlargement of Guns Can Make Things (Part 2)
Su Ying pointed to the erected light door: "What is this thing used for?" ”
"Correct the muzzle height, now there is no scale, let Ziyi and others repeatedly test the single point of the bullet, and add the scale after obtaining the data.
In conjunction with the front sight, the circle on the front sight is used to correct and protect the front sight and delineate the viewing range.
Of course, the door can be a blocking caliper type, and now it is more convenient to use a standing one......"
Li Yi explained again, a gun, if you say imitation, you will imitate? Do you understand the principle?
"Show the old man." Bi Gou reached out for a gun.
Guo Ziyi carefully handed it over, and as soon as Bi Gou took it, his hand sank: "Heavy." ”
"Thirteen.6 catties to fourteen catties, it looks heavier than an ordinary bow, but the bullet is lighter, and it is easy to carry, and the gun is too light to be allowed.
The wall of the barrel is thin, and if you want to increase the amount of propellant or change the formula of propellant in the future, you can't use it, and it will explode.
The cement was transported to the border to repair the city, and the common people learned how to use firearms, and when it came to ......"
Li Yi knew that the gun was a little heavy, and he deliberately prepared for future upgrades.
Everyone must get used to the same weight first, otherwise the current light and the future will be heavy, and it will not be easy to use.
There's another reason.
"There will be bayonets on the gun, the enemy is close, fight with the knife, I have a tutorial on fighting bayonets, and you must have a sense of weight when you pick it up."
Li Yi said the last thing he wanted to see, white-knuckle fighting.
However, the army that has never dared to fight white-knuckle battles will lose if he cannons him.
At that time, he was initially invaded by the Japanese country, and the Chinese people couldn't fight with bayonets and couldn't play.
Later, it will be fought, the key is not to be afraid of death.
Nepal has a scimitar army, which has never lost in white-knuckle battles, not because Nepal is powerful, but because the people in the army dare to fight.
However, they lost, lost to Li Yi's army at that time, white-knuckle battle, isn't it desperate! Then come on.
During the war on the Goryeo Peninsula, the Nepalese scimitar troops were hired to fight the rabbit army with bayonets, but never with the rabbit army.
The current Datang is also the same, the rifle is equipped with a bayonet, the gun is heavy, not only the barrel is thick, but also long.
When shooting, you can make the bullet fly farther, and you won't suffer too much loss when fighting a bayonet.
Speaking of bayonets, Guo Ziyi took out the bayonet, the long bayonet with a blood groove was the same kind of steel as the barrel.
He loaded the bayonet and jammed it, and the gun instantly gave a different look, as if it was murderous.
"It looks better than a bow, and the bow can only be smashed and twisted when the distance between the bow is tight, and it is not strong enough."
Song Jing carefully touched the back and side of the bayonet with his fingers, not daring to touch the blade, unless he held it himself, he dared to try the blade with his fingers horizontally.
"If you can fight without bayonets, you won't fight with bayonets, and the gunners should be far away from them."
Li Yi felt sorry for his soldiers of the Tang Dynasty and was willing to use long-range weapons to solve the enemy.
You can spend a little more money, and it's worth it!
"How much does it cost?" Bi Gou swallowed his saliva and asked with confidence.
"Lao Bi, you hold on, don't be afraid, the money from selling the bicycle will be built, you don't need to buy it, I said it was okay."
Li Yi was afraid that Bi Gou would fall suddenly, and there was no good equipment here.
"Whew~~" Bi Gou let out a long sigh: "Yes, I told Xiao Yi that bicycles are not taxed, and guns are made." The old man never buys and sells at a loss. ”
Bi Gou hardened up in an instant, look, the old man thinks about how long-term.
"Sixty thousand?" Wei Zhigu counted the number of people, 30,000 Yulin flying cavalry and 30,000 recruits trained in Taibai Mountain, 60,000.
"This summer, Zhuangzi will produce a hydraulic stamping machine, and when I smelt just now, I will add other things to make alloy steel for the stamping machine."
Li Yi didn't say how much he made, he gave a new technology.
It is too laborious to manufacture steel pipes manually, and it is pressed on a stamping machine, hot rolled, and the speed is fast.
The cost is not important, he doesn't need money for coal, he doesn't give money for iron ore, and the saltpeter of gunpowder is supplied in large quantities.
This is a military industry, and the materials are all taken for free, and the money earned from selling kerosene is used to subsidize the cost of other auxiliary materials.
He doesn't give money when he takes the oil, it belongs to the Li family Zhuangzi to provide technology and produce military materials, and the extra money is a reward.
Considering the cost of materials, labor costs and technical costs, no one calculates with him.
The labor cost is high, and the higher is the technology!
This gun crossed the material stage of cast iron and cast copper, crossed the arquebus stage, crossed the precharge stage, crossed the smoothbore stage, and crossed the linear rifling stage.
Can anyone define how much this technology is worth? It's the equivalent of a thousand years.
There is also a change in the concept of warfare, in the way of warfare.
"Li Yi, if you make this gun bigger, it will be like a bed crossbow......" Su Ying suddenly had an idea.
"Su Jaefu has a good idea, the gun is enlarged, it is a cannon, I will make the thunder mercury and turn it into a fuse device, let's shoot it out, and the cannonball can bloom."
Li Yi gave a thumbs up, it was amazing for my Prime Minister Su, he had ideas, very good.
"Can it still bloom? Such as grenades and explosives packs? "Su Ying knew about the weapons that were sent to the front, lit them, and threw them out.
He originally wanted to fire a larger bullet, far away, to hit the enemy's generals, and when one shot went out, all the people in the road were shattered, and finally the enemy generals died.
Replace it with explosive bullets, like explosive packets thrown by catapults.
"Yes, as long as the thunder mercury is taken out, the rest is easy to solve, add a spring device in front of the shell, and ignite the thunder mercury after encountering the impact force, and then ......"
Li Yi compared it, and the appearance of the explosion was as simple as that, provided that the industrial base was fine.
"That's great, Xiao Yi, make it." Bi Gou now can't directly lead a force to fight the Tibetans.
"Money. It's fun to bombard with artillery, there is a lot of money, nothing else, a cannonball is fired, and the income of ordinary people in Jingzhao Mansion is half a year. ”
Li Yi had already calculated the price, but the current production conditions are too poor, and there are many manual participants.
To make a shell, the whole cost is calculated, and it takes twenty yuan, half a year's income for the family.
Of course, it will be cheaper in the future, and he will gradually improve the process and come up with new technologies.
With a good lathe, more and better lathes can be made, and a generation of lathes will become cultural relics.
Bi Gou followed the calculation, and suddenly lowered his head and sighed, he couldn't afford to fight, it was too expensive, and what he got after playing might not be able to return to his roots.
"Xiao Yi, it's better to wait, don't make it." Bi Gou knew that the Li family Zhuangzi couldn't bear it, and he didn't want to give money.
"Don't make it? If you don't build it, you will never have it, and only when you build it can you slowly reduce costs.
Even if it is 20 rounds of shells, I am willing to pay 200,000 rounds for 10,000 shells.
Put the artillery team in the middle of the city, and use the current method of intersight.
With the cavalry in the upper city, a few hundred rounds can blow up the enemy, and no formation exists in front of the artillery. ”
Li Yi shook his head, he wants to build, and the way of calculation is different.
Twenty cannonballs, one cannon kills an enemy, 10,000 cannons kill 10,000 enemies, 200,000 dollars.
How much does it cost for an enemy to grow from small? How many people is the enemy?
