When he got up in the morning, after Wang Ke told Wang Si where he was going, he came to Li Ke's house, picked up Li Ke and rushed to the Weapons and Equipment Bureau, he was now anxious to see what Li Ke and the muskets they made looked like.

Li Ke's mood is the same as Wang Ke's, he came back from Wang Ke's house yesterday, and he hasn't slept steadily, waiting for Wang Ke to pick him up to take a look, and now even sitting in Wang Ke's car, he still feels impatient.

The two came all the way to the Weapons and Equipment Bureau, this time Li Ke no longer accompanied Wang Ke to watch, as soon as he entered the big 'door', he called someone to call the people in charge of the development of the musket, and he took Wang Ke directly to the place where the musket was placed.

Wang Ke walked into the room, didn't care about what to say to Li Ke, and ran to the table where the musket was placed in a few steps.

It can be seen that these muskets are all made of metal, with thick barrels, Wang Ke doesn't have to think about it to understand, it must be the same material used in artillery, the barrel is bare, there is nothing, that is to say, there is no crosshair, let alone a gap with the crosshair, if there is not a grip, it is completely a pocket version of a 'door' large artillery.

And it looks like Huang Cancan's handle, it must be made of all copper, or wrapped with copper, it looks like it is a hand grip function, without any aesthetic considerations, let alone ergonomics.

Wang Ke cautiously stretched out his hand to the so-called musket, and just wanted to lift it, he felt that this musket was not an ordinary heavy, and he really couldn't pick it up without a little force.

As soon as Li Ke saw Wang Ke shaking his head, he knew that Wang Ke was dissatisfied with this thing, so he hurriedly walked up and asked, "Brother Wang, is this wrong?" ”

As soon as he heard Li Ke ask himself, Wang Ke couldn't wait to smash this musket on Li Ke's head, can this thing be used? And ask yourself if it's right.

Wang Ke said angrily: "Yes, it's a good thing that you have this kind of thought, but you still come and talk to me before you want to do it!" It's not much use to make this thing now. ”

Li Ke was stunned for a moment and muttered, "I've tried it, but it can still be used." But like you said, every time you 'shoot', it takes a long time to reload the projectile, and there doesn't seem to be anything else. ”

When Wang Ke heard this, he was even more angry, and asked Li Ke: "Then tell me, when you try 'shooting', how far can you hit?" ”

As soon as Li Ke heard Wang Ke ask about himself, he hurriedly said: "More than ten zhang, I can't remember exactly how far it is, and after a while, the craftsmen came to Brother Wang and asked them, they are much clearer than I know." ”

When Wang Ke heard Li Ke's words, he rolled his eyes angrily, this kid is also a bureaucrat now, he used to ask him anything, and he could answer it in one bite, but now, he dared to tell himself clearly!

But he didn't know and there was no way, Wang Ke could only look at the musket in his hand again, hoping that he could see more shortcomings clearly, so that he could tell these craftsmen later, so that when they could remake it, they could try to be as close as possible to the appearance of later generations.

Just when Wang Ke was almost finished, several craftsmen hurried over, and after saluting Li Ke and Wang Ke, they all gathered around Wang Ke, wanting to hear Wang Ke's suggestions for improving the musket. Who knew that Wang Ke hadn't said anything yet, so he threw the musket directly on the table, and looked at them silently with his hands behind his back, seeing that their hearts were hairy.

Several craftsmen didn't dare to open their mouths to ask Wang Ke, so Li Ke had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "Brother Wang, now that everyone is here, you can just say what you have to say, if there is anything wrong, you can point it out, and we can improve it!" ”

Li Ke still hasn't understood, Wang Ke has no place to look at this musket, knowledge is now a craftsman here, Wang Ke is afraid that he will not pay attention, and he will say everything, which will hit the positive 'sex' of these craftsmen, if these craftsmen have no confidence and don't want to do it, then they can't do anything now.

Li Ke saw that Wang Ke was still silent, he didn't know what Wang Ke was thinking, and he didn't know what he should say, so he couldn't open his mouth for a while.

Several craftsmen stood aside, and after seeing that Wang Ke and Li Ke did not speak, and looked at each other, one of the older ones said cautiously: "General, if you have anything, you can say it directly, it is the first time to do this small one, and I have no experience." It doesn't matter if the general says it's all wrong, just redo it if it's a big deal. The small ones can also see that as long as there are these firearms, my Datang army is invincible! No matter how bitter it is, the little one will make this firearm according to the general's request! ”

As soon as this craftsman finished saying these words as if he had expressed his determination, several other craftsmen who were standing with him echoed him, and although the words he said were not as crisp as the old craftsman, they were also very resolute, which made Wang Ke sigh a little.

Wang Ke took a deep look at these craftsmen and said, "As you said, this thing is not right at all. This official knows that you are imitating artillery, and it is worth affirming that you have such an idea, but what you don't know is that this thing and artillery are still surprised, and the surprise is not small, for this, I will tell you in detail, I hope you can understand! ”

As soon as several craftsmen heard that Wang Ke really said that the thing they made was useless, and they had already made some preparations in their hearts, but they still felt a little lost in their hearts, but when they thought that Wang Ke promised to explain the structure of this firearm to them in detail, their feelings of loss were still greatly improved, and they hurriedly came to Wang Ke's side, for fear that they would miss some key places because they stood far away.

At this time, Wang Ke was really a little contradictory, he didn't know whether to tell these people directly, the practice of this musket, or first tell them the few basic conditions that must be completed to make a musket, after a period of 'fierce' struggle, Wang Ke still decided to come step by step, this meal has to be eaten one bite at a time, the road has to be walked step by step, if you don't learn to climb, learn to run, it is sure to fall on your heels.

Wang Ke pointed to the firearm on the table and said: "Look, this is completely a pocket version of a 'door' large artillery, that is to say, a 'door' large artillery is reduced, and a grip is added, which becomes the musket we see now, in this way, not only is it too inconvenient to load, and the 'firing' speed is also very slow, and because the barrel is made of this material now, you are afraid that it will explode, so you will continue to thicken it, until it is not so easy to explode, you will stop, which invisibly causes the weight of this musket to increase a lot." In this way, even if a single soldier can hold and use it, it is estimated that this time will not last. ”

Wang Ke stopped and glanced at Li Ke and a few craftsmen, and saw that they were all listening quite seriously, so he continued: "The biggest problem is that this is done according to artillery, but there is nothing accurate about this shot, this is not larger than artillery, the projectile of artillery, after it is exploded, it is to kill and injure the enemy by flying fragments, and this is a small projectile, it must hit the vital point to kill the enemy, which requires a 'fine' to hit the requirement, like the current is not good, it will definitely not meet the requirements." Another problem is that now due to the shrinkage, the barrel is also very short, and the 'shooting' distance of the projectile is very short, and it will not work. As you can imagine, if this thing we made could not be 'shot' as far away as a bow and arrow, would the soldiers in the army use it? Surely it will not be used, and no one will want to risk being 'shot' by a bow and arrow to go where this musket can hit! ”

Wang Ke's words woke up all the craftsmen at once, isn't it, if the distance of this 'shooting' is not as far as the 'shooting' of the bow and arrow, then what's the use of making it!

Now the faces of these craftsmen immediately showed a burst of loss, Wang Ke saw it in his eyes, and hurriedly comforted: "Nothing, now we will solve a few of the most basic requirements first, and then we will consider the problem of making muskets, as long as these problems can be solved, it will be much easier to make muskets!" ”

Seeing Wang Ke say this, the craftsmen who were still a little disappointed just now immediately cheered up again, in their opinion, as long as Wang Ke said that it could be made, then there must be no problem, as long as they did what Wang Ke said, there was no problem that could not be solved.

Wang Ke looked at these craftsmen whose faces were a little congested and red because of the 'agitation', and he couldn't help but pour a basin of cold water on them: "Now is not the time to be happy, it is a little difficult to solve these problems, and the official is not very clear, and it has to be solved by everyone, so everyone has to be mentally prepared, and it will take a while to get a result." But as long as everyone is not discouraged, any difficulties can be solved! ”

Wang Ke didn't let the craftsmen have the slightest time to think about it, and directly said what he thought about and the problems that must be solved first, such as the refining of steel, the problem of making seamless steel pipes from steel, in a word, everything that must be achieved before making muskets.

Only then did a few craftsmen understand that this musket was really not the same as artillery, but it was much more complicated to talk about.

Looking at the thoughtful craftsmen, Wang Ke finally said: "Let's solve these problems first, and then consider the next problems step by step, as long as the official knows, he will tell you, so now it's all up to everyone!" ”

Seeing that Wang Ke said so sincerely, the craftsmen also hugged their fists towards Wang Ke and Li Ke with solemn faces, although they did not speak, but the application on their faces had already told Wang Ke that they would definitely take this matter seriously and would not slack off.
