Zhu Shun asked the Rocket Battalion Xiangyong to be between 16 and 18 years old, and the main focus was on the learning ability of these teenagers.

Next, in order to be able to hit the enemy more accurately, prepare to establish a gun watch system.

Zhu Shun was sitting behind the red sandalwood book case in the white mansion, and was combing through the various standardized tools used in the cannon watch system, when a personal entourage of Zhu Yu in charge of the factory stood at the door and said respectfully: "My lord asked the eldest master to go to the cannon factory. ”

"It's said that the artillery factory has a new rocket."

Zhu Shun waved his hand, signaling that he knew, and put down the lake pen in his hand: "Yuanchi, prepare a sedan chair." ”

The man of the iron tower stopped a member of the Economic Affairs Bureau who was about to run out, and asked him to inform the palanquin man at the gate of Baifu that the old man was going out to the gun factory.

Zhu Shun put down the lake pen, walked out of the office with the iron tower man, and walked along the cement road between the vast lawns to the gate of the iron fence.

Zhu Shun stipulated that no one could ride a horse and ride a sedan chair in the White Mansion, even Zhu Shun himself, so as not to destroy the scenery of the White Mansion.

sat on the blue silk Hunan embroidered sedan chair and rushed to the gun factory.

When he came to the gun factory, Zhao Doumi, who was already in charge of the factory, stood in the middle of a bunch of genius students, becoming more and more generous, neither humble nor arrogant.

Zhao Doumi saw his mentor coming, and walked over and saluted respectfully: "Mentor, please come here." ”

The artillery factory has a range for testing the power of artillery.

The range occupies a large area and the terrain is flat.

When Zhu Shun came here, he saw a small earthen bag directly opposite, and a benchmark was inserted above the small earthen bag.

The distance between each small earthen bag is one hundred meters.

Zhu Shun picked up the clairvoyant mirror and looked at it.

There are also numbers written on the benchmark to indicate the distance of the benchmark from the starting point.

Zhao Doumi ordered people to bring five rockets, and on the black and shiny shell, the Dongfeng Type 1 was written with white dye: "Teacher, there has not been much progress in the improvement of Dongfeng rockets during this time." ”

"However, for the types of Dongfeng rockets, they have been expanded, and a total of four Dongfeng rockets have been invented, this is the Dongfeng 1 type, which is also a normal Dongfeng rocket."

Zhao Doumi held the torch with both hands, and Zhu Shun lit the rocket, setting off a large number of dazzling sparks, and flew out in an arc.

"Boom!"

At the fifth benchmark, a mushroom cloud exploded.

A genius student quickly ran over, took a tape measure and began to measure the distance, and when the calculation was over, he ran over and excitedly reported to Zhu Shunyu: "The mountain is long, and the range is 502 meters." ”

Zhu Shun nodded, and set off all the rockets one after another, and to his surprise, the explosion point error of the five Dongfeng 1 rockets was less than three meters.

The improvement of the Dongfeng rocket, where there is no progress, is clearly epoch-making progress.

Standardization has been achieved.

The casting of Daming artillery, because of the different craftsmanship of craftsmen, and the absence of accurate measuring tools such as micrometer vernier calipers, the range error of the same kind of artillery is very large.

This caused a great headache, it was impossible to carry out fire network coverage, and the maximum role of artillery was lost.

Zhu Shun's Dongfeng 1 has just been launched, and the range error of each rocket does not exceed three meters, which can completely cover the fire network.

With such a small error, it is still possible to achieve the precision strike emphasized by missiles in later generations.

Zhao Doumi has slowly grown into an artillery expert through various actual combat data fed back by the prince of Fuwang, and he is expected to take over the banner of the first person in artillery from Sun Yuanhua.

Zhao Doumi knows very well the significance of this standardized rocket to the history of firearms, and if it were an ordinary person like a young man, his tail would have risen to the sky.

But he didn't have the slightest complacency, and took out a report and handed it to his teacher: "Master, the craftsmen of the artillery factory have been able to use various measuring tools proficiently after rigorous teaching. ”

"The disciples asked people to strictly control the size of the mold, the weight of the shell, the weight of gunpowder and so on."

"Every time a critical process is completed, the length, width, height and weight of the Dongfeng rocket are measured to reduce the tolerance to the minimum."

"If you do well, you will be rewarded, and if you don't do well, you will be punished, and through this series of manufacturing standards, the standardized manufacturing of Dongfeng rockets will be carried out."

Zhu Shun straightened his messy collar for him and praised: "It's a good job." ”

Zhao Doumi has made such a great contribution to the history of firearms, without the slightest complacency, hearing the praise of his teacher, he showed a proud expression: "It was the teacher who gave the disciple a chance to display his talents." ”

"Otherwise, the disciple is still worried about what to eat for the next meal, where is it like today, not only did he return to his hometown, rebuilt the ancestral hall, but also lived a life of fine clothes and food."

Zhao Doumi thought of his teacher's kindness to him, his eyes couldn't help but turn red, if it weren't for the fact that there was someone next to him, tears would have flowed out.

Zhu Shun rubbed Zhao Doumi's head affectionately, smiled and said, "Just drink two more cups with your master during the New Year." ”

Zhao Doumi rubbed his eyes, let out a heavy 'um', and then asked someone to bring the second Dongfeng rocket.

The Dongfeng-2 rocket fell at the fifth benchmark position, and after the explosion, it did not form a mushroom cloud, and a burning flame appeared.

Molotov cocktails!

Zhu Shun saw the violently burning ground about five hundred meters through the clairvoyant mirror, and silently recited a sentence of Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable for Jiannu.

This thing was a prohibited weapon with various explicit restrictions in the world in later generations, but I didn't expect it to be drummed up by the fourth disciple Zhao Doumi.

Daming does not have any so-called international law, and for Jiannu, you can use it however you want.

Zhu Shun thought of the picture of hundreds of Dongfeng Type 2 being set off together, and he couldn't help but feel a little numb in his scalp, but he couldn't wait.

With such a beautiful picture, how can you do it without experimenting with it a few times.

Zhao Doumi took out a report again and respectfully handed it over: "This is a kind of Dongfeng rocket improved by the disciple combined with fierce fire oil, and after landing, a large amount of refined fierce fire oil will be blown up. ”

"Well, this refining technique was brought by the disciple from the second brother's chemical experiment courtyard."

Zhu Shun's goal for his second disciple Jiao Miao was to invent the refining technology of sulfuric acid in three acids and two alkalis as soon as possible.

Triacid and dialkali are the basis of all modern chemical industry, and sulfuric acid is one of the preconditions for smokeless gunpowder nitrocellulose.

Unexpectedly, the second disciple Jiao Miao's chemical laboratory courtyard can already refine the fierce fire oil, and it seems that he has time to go to the chemical laboratory to have a look.

Zhu Shun nodded, and returned the report in his hand to Zhao Doumi: "Go on." ”

This was followed by two more Dongfeng rockets, namely the Dongfeng-3, an armor-piercing projectile specially designed for naval warfare.

The DF-4 is an ultra-long-range rocket with a range of an astonishing 1,000 meters, but in order to increase the range of the DF-4, the power has been reduced a lot.

After testing all the Dongfeng rockets, Zhu Shun encouraged Zhao Doumi and went to Zhu Yu, the head of the factory, and asked him to cooperate with Zhao Doumi to create a batch of Dongfeng 2 as soon as possible.

Before tomorrow's summer solstice, at least 1,000 Dongfeng Type 2 will be built.
