Qin Feng was distracted for a moment, then raised his head and asked, "After the steel mill is built, how much can such a barrel be produced in a month?" ”

"I've calculated that 40 to 50 steel rods can be produced a day, and there may be more scrap in the early stage, which needs to be recycled. Guaranteed, there is no problem with 1,000 roots a month. Xu Qiming replied.

"Good! That's enough! Not only the barrel, but also the barrel. In a year, we can equip a militia of 10,000 people. At that time, the ability to protect oneself will be enough! Qin Feng said with a smile.

Xu Qiming nodded: "No problem, the later process will be more mature, and there will be less waste." So I plan to do it at least two months later. ”

"I was not wrong at the beginning, after knowing what it is and knowing why, is it easier to produce design guns than guns?"

Xu Qiming shook his head: "You only see the production process, and the difficulty of the artillery lies in the calculation of the landing of the shells." The length, thickness, height of the barrel, and the amount of inspiration at the base of the cannonball will affect the landing of the cannonball. This calculation is very complicated, and Chang Daochang and I are still checking it, so I am not going to give you a drill today. ”

Chang Daochang added: "I also just discovered that Master Xu not only has a lot of research on arithmetic, but also has higher requirements for artillery. I thought that if I could get it out, I would be able to fight it. Master Xu insisted on calculating the data, and in the future, he would make a ruler on the artillery, how high and how far he could hit, as long as there was distance data, he would directly set it according to the ruler, pointing where to hit. ”

Xu Qiming said with a smile: "I have high requirements, but Commander Qin talked to me before, the simpler the weapon the sergeant can use, the better the weapon." After speaking, he raised the gun in his hand and said, "This gun is simple, I'll show you it." ”

Although the gun is simple, it is also fully functional, with a long barrel mouth, a rear, and two collar crosshairs. The rear butt is folded up and down. Xu Qiming pulled the bolt back, pressed the circlip, and the butt was refrigerated. Revealing the muzzle of the barrel, Xu Qiming took out a yellow bullet from his pocket and stuffed it in. When the butt was lifted again, the bolt was pushed forward, locked, and the bullet was also loaded.

Raise your gun and aim, snap! In Qin Feng's ears, a familiar, crisp and pleasant voice sounded.

Xu Qiming put away the gun, pulled the bolt back, and brought out the bullet case.

Gao Wenjin leaned over and picked it up: "This is copper?" ”

"Yes, the bullet is copper, the bullet is lead, and steel can also be used." Chang Daochang introduced: "The cartridge case can also be reused. ”

Gao Wenjin nodded and smiled: "It can be reused, it's much better, it's not too wasteful." It's just that you can't see how far you shoot, and how powerful it is. ”

Xu Qiming said: "Just now it was a demonstration of the shooting process, and now it is a demonstration of power." ”

As they spoke, two hundred paces ahead, a few people led several long-haired yaks and tied them to several wooden stakes. Wait for everyone over there to run away and dodge.

Xu Qiming pulled the bolt back again, loaded the bullet, aimed, snap! A gunshot rang out. A yak suddenly shook its body, slowly knelt down, and then fell to the ground.

Qin Feng was stunned: "The marksmanship is good!" "I was even more surprised in my heart, isn't this kind of backward bending and folding because of the poor breath-holding, and the range power is discounted. It's so far ahead, about 300 meters, and you can overturn a yak with one shot! Terrible!

Gao Wenjin was even more shocked, this is a distance of two hundred steps!

It is not easy to train archers in the army! And the best archers are even rarer, even the best archers can't shoot a yak so far away! Because the farther the bow and arrow, the weaker the lethality. And the yak skin is thick, which is equivalent to a soldier wearing leather armor!

Xu Qiming is a weak scholar, and with his figure, it is still debatable whether he can pull a stone bow. But with this gun in his hand, he can kill a yak at 200 paces! It can be seen that this gun is amazingly powerful.

What's even more amazing is that the reason why the Dahua arquebus was suppressed by the cavalry bow and arrow was because it was slow to reload, super slow! If the archer has good physical strength, he will shoot ten arrows, and the arquebus may only be able to shoot once! But Xu Qiming's reloading speed just now is already on par with the speed of an archer's arrow!

Long range, great power, fast reloading. Even if he doesn't understand military affairs, Gao Wenjin, who has only read military books, also realized that this is a battlefield killer! Qin Feng is right, the invincible weapons in the world can make it difficult for the grassland cavalry to advance an inch!

Qin Feng is obviously not like Gao Wenjin, who only sees the advantages. Qin Feng is here to pick the shortcomings, before the finished product comes out, the design is as simple as possible, and the next step is the next step after success. Now that the finished product has come out, it's time to keep improving! The product needs to be upgraded!

For example, when the gun was unloaded, Qin Feng whispered to Xu Qiming while fiddling with the gun. Xu Qiming frowned and thought about it, and kept nodding slightly.

Praise a person can be loud and forceful. Putting forward opinions and expressing his own suggestions, his voice should be lowered, in the eyes of others, Qin Feng was whispering and talking to Xu Qiming.

Qin Feng's opinion is only one, the handle folding loading should be changed to, pushing and pulling the bolt to load. Because this way the ammunition is faster, the air pressure is better, and the gun will be a little more powerful. Moreover, the sergeant can shoot covertly on his stomach. The folded upper rebound is only suitable for the standing position.

As for semi-automatic loading, or using a magazine, Qin Feng didn't say anything for the time being. One shot, the way of one bullet, Qin Feng can accept it. That's fast enough. The rest of the product upgrades are still natural, and there is still some room for Xu Qiming and others to think independently.

And now it only takes a change in the way it is loaded, and the spear can be mass-produced and assembled with the militia. This was the result that Qin Feng desperately needed. Bora

From the time crossing to the present, at this moment, Qin Feng finally had a little confidence in his heart. When you can see the future clearly and know what kind of tragedy will happen, but you are powerless to resist it, you will be very scared and worried when you can't avoid it.

The gun in your hand can make you feel at ease!

Qin Feng followed Xu Qiming's example, pulled the bolt, loaded, aimed at the yak, snap!

A few yaks flicked their tails, did not move, and waited for a while. Qin Feng asked, "This bullet can't kill you!" ”

Xu Qiming squinted his eyes and looked: "It's missed." ”

Gao Wenjin pouted: "You didn't hit, and you didn't lose a single yak hair!" ”

Qin Feng smiled, loaded the bullet again, and then lay on the spot, put the gun on a stone, and the whole person comfortably lay on the ground to aim, snap! A yak shook and fell.

Qin Feng looked up and looked around, no one applauded, everyone looked at him like a monster! And this method of shooting? Can you still fight on your stomach in a war? This is a strange thing in the world! Who will believe it? Those generals will die laughing.

However, just now, right under everyone's noses, it really happened!

Xu Qiming's mind flashed, and he suddenly realized, clapping his hands and shouting: "You must change the method of loading bullets!" ”

Qin Feng stood up and handed the gun to Gao Wenjin: "You come and try, remember, the muzzle of the gun can never be aimed at people." ”

Gao Wenjin was in high spirits, loaded the bullet, and ended the gun. Only then did I realize that when the gun was raised, it was really a bit heavy. Immediately, he lay on the spot, learning from Qin Feng's appearance and slowly aiming. Xu Qiming squatted beside him and said softly: "Look at the ruler, look at a line with your eyes, do you lasso the cow?" ”

"Trapped!"

"Then pull the trigger hard!"

"Smack!"

Qin Feng raised his eyes and looked: "Mao didn't hit!" ”

"Again." Gao Wenjin reached out for a bullet.

Five times in a row, Gao Wenjin finally knocked down a yak. Gao Wenjin jumped up excitedly! Shooting is a sport and a game, and perhaps Gao Wenjin was more depressed before. And shooting can also properly release pressure, and Gao Wenjin became obsessed with this military skill.

Qin Feng looked at Chang Daochang and the others, and Chang Daochang waved his hand: "You can just test the gun, I'm not interested, I'll take a look." ”

Qin Feng, Xu Qiming, and Gao Wenjin tried to shoot a few more shots until they shot all the remaining three yaks. Qin Feng waved his hand: "Let's go, go and see the wound, and also show Gao Wenjin the power of this bullet!" ”

"I do wonder how such a small bullet can knock down a yak."

Several people approached, followed by several strong men holding ox solving blades. There were three yaks on the verge of death, and they were still dying, just lying on the ground and humming.

Xu Qiming beckoned a few people to come over with knives and sent yaks on the road. Then I found a yak wound, the sharp blade was untied, and there was a big blood hole in the wound, and a man took out a deformed lead bullet and handed it to Gao Wenjin in the rotten flesh tissue.

Gao Wenjin looked at the warhead with blood stains in his hand, looked at the cow's wound, and said slowly: "The bullet shot into the cow's body, and the remaining strength was not dispersed, and it continued to collide in the cow's body. The warhead is also deformed! Therefore, the wound on the outside is very small, and the blood hole inside is wide open, and the yak naturally can't withstand a blow! If it's a human being, it's even more vulnerable! At the end of the day, it's the power of the bullet! “

"It's worthy of Tanhualang! In a word! So the warhead is made of lead. Lead is softer than steel, and it will deform when it encounters resistance, causing more damage and killing enemies more effectively! If you change to a steel-core warhead, the warhead will not be easily deformed and will be extremely penetrating. Against ordinary sergeants, bullets can easily pass through the human body, and the front and rear wounds are not large, and the lethality is not as good as lead bullets. But against a dense formation of sergeants, it is possible to shoot two shots. To deal with heavy armored cavalry, the steel-core warhead is a sharp killing weapon, one shot at a time! Qin Feng said proudly: "With this bullet, the Northern Grassland Army will never want to step into my Nanchang with a bow and arrow!" ”

Chang Dao said: "It's just Nanchang? ”

"What do you think?" Qin Feng smiled: "I am the Jiangxi militia group!" “

"I'm here with Master Xu, and I'm working hard. Just because of the chaos in the world today, I expect you to be able to turn the tide, not to mention protecting the entire Dahua from it. At least we should keep this land thousands of miles south of the Yangtze River. Chang Dao Chang Zhengse said: "This is a real human killer, Qin Gongzi can not live up to us, he must make good use of it." “

Qin Feng nodded silently.
