Chapter 292 Participate in R&D

Li Daoxuan had lost his usual composure, and said to Shen Team: "Write it down, write it down, and write down everything that my uncle said." ”

Hearing this, Cui Wenqing smiled dumbly, shook his hand and said: "Actually, this is just my idea, as for how the practice can be, it depends on Captain Li and the craftsmen of the Divine Craftsman Battalion to study hard, as for the words just said, I will not leave Fuzhou for a while, if you have any questions, Captain Li just ask me." ”

Li Daoxuan nodded suddenly, hesitated for a while, suddenly bowed deeply to Cui Wenqing, and said politely: "Uncle, there will be a reluctant invitation at the end." ”

"Captain Li, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Cui Wenqing hurriedly helped him.

Li Daoxuan said solemnly: "I just listened to your opinion, uncle, the end will be said to be a hut suddenly, as the saying goes, you need to take advantage of the heat to strike iron, and the last general wants to use these days to develop a new type of rocket and try its power." ”

Cui Wenqing knew that the use of gunpowder was a hundred-year plan, so he didn't hesitate at this time, and nodded angrily: "That's no problem, that's good, stay in the Divine Craftsman Camp and help you make rockets." After that, he turned his head to look at Zhe Zhao and said with a smile: "I don't know what you think, lady?" ”

Zhi Zhao nodded and said, "Accurately, when you successfully produce a new type of rocket, Ben Shuai will take a look." ”

※※※

For the next few days, Cui Wenqing stayed in the Shenjiang camp to help make rockets.

Perhaps because his identity is too ostentatious, no matter where he goes, he will attract onlookers from craftsmen.

Indeed, it is naturally surprising that the husband of the dignified governor of the Zhenwu Army is no different from these craftsmen, nesting in the arsenal camp to make ordnance.

In particular, when the craftsmen heard that the basic theory of this new type of rocket was first proposed by this uncle, and it had great practical effects, even when Captain Li and Shen Zhengzheng were impressed, this kind of surprise suddenly reached a boil.

However, everyone is strange, and many people still uphold a skeptical attitude in their hearts.

Aunt Cui is just a scholar, how can he understand these instruments that only craftsmen can understand? Isn't this a wild talk?

I'm afraid that Li Daoxuan is worried that the development of rockets will be banned by the Metropolitan Governor, so he dragged Cui Wenqing to carry out rocket development with a dead face, hoping to let the Metropolitan Governor open up the net and let them continue to develop rockets.

As soon as this speculation came out, it was also recognized by many craftsmen, but the whispers continued.

Cui Wenqing, Li Daoxuan and others did not have time to pay attention to these gossips, and devoted themselves to the improvement of the rocket.

In fact, the rocket envisioned by Cui Wenqing is not difficult to transform, and the only trouble is the problem of manufacturing iron sheets as explosive devices.

As far as the current level of iron making in Daqi is concerned, it is far from catching up with the era before Cui Wenqing crossed.

To create a suitable iron sheet, it must be continuously tempered by craftsmen with a sledgehammer, which is slowly thinned and hardened under the scorching fire and the blow of a heavy hammer.

The iron sheet was then wrapped in a cylinder to hold the gunpowder used in the explosion.

However, even so, the iron sheet forged by this tempering method was released by the explosion of gunpowder, but it still could not achieve the effect of grenades in later generations.

Cui Wenqing still remembers that he once read a report in the past, saying that during the Anti-Japanese War, the grenades made by the Eighth Route Army themselves were not pure because of the impure explosives, and the quality of the iron sheet on the outside was too poor.

The sweet potato grenades used by the Japanese army in the same period can produce at least fifteen fragments after exploding, which is far more powerful than the grenades used by the Eighth Route Army.

The most direct problem facing Cui Wenqing now is similar to the situation encountered by the Eighth Route Army.

Faced with such a problem, he discussed with Li Daoxuan for a long time, so he had to retreat and install more iron bumps in the explosive device, barely increasing the power of the explosion.

By the time the new rocket was designed, it had already been five days.

Cui Wenqing took Li Daoxuan and the Shen team, who was specifically responsible for making rockets, to meet Zhizhao and asked her to watch the power of the new rocket.

Unintentionally, he waved his hand and said solemnly: "Since it is a test of power, how can it be that Ben Shuai can go alone?" Otherwise, the generals above the rank of captain of the Zhenwu Military Academy will come to the Shenjiang Camp to watch your test, and by the way, you can ask the captains to give their opinions. ”

Hearing this, Li Daoxuan and Team Shen were chuckling at the same time.

The pressure to test the power of the new rocket in front of the entire military cadet is too great.

If it succeeds, it's okay to say, but if it fails, won't the entire Divine Craftsman Camp become the laughing stock of others?

For a while, even Li Daoxuan, who had high hopes for the rocket, did not dare to open his mouth to promise.

Cui Wenqing didn't care, he smiled and said: "Since the lady has this thought, then okay, please ask the lady to come directly with the captains tomorrow, without further ado, we will rush back to the Shenjiang camp to prepare." ”

Out of the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Daoxuan and Shen were both worried, and the former couldn't help but complain: "Uncle, just promise the governor, what if the test of the new rocket fails?" ”

Team Shen nodded and agreed: "Yes, there are only two new rockets in total, and even we haven't tested them ourselves, so how can we test them in front of so many people tomorrow?" ”

Cui Wenqing smiled and comforted: "The new rocket we created is not wrong in thinking, there is no mistake in manufacturing, there should not be any big problems, you two can rest assured, as long as the test can be successful tomorrow, I dare to guarantee that the governor will never stop you from developing rockets in the future." ”

Hearing him say this, Li Daoxuan couldn't help but nodded.

Returning to the Shenjiang camp, Li Daoxuan immediately summoned all the craftsmen and deployed all the generals of the Zhenwu Army to inspect the matter tomorrow.

After a few moments, the craftsmen were busy.

Some of them sorted out the equipment and pushed these huge ordnance out of the military academy yard and cleared a large area of open space, some began to build grandstands on the north side of the military academy yard, some sprinkled and swept the camp to clean the inside and outside, and some people walked out of the camp and were busy endlessly.

In short, everyone is so busy that they don't have any idleness.

Of course, it has to be out of Cui Wenqing.

Compared with Li Daoxuan and others, he is naturally idle, and he is not very worried about the inspection of the generals of the Zhenwu Army tomorrow.

After all, this new rocket is the best improvement method he can think of, and if it still doesn't work, it proves that his thinking was wrong from the beginning, and there is really no need to develop the rocket.

Therefore, if it is successful, it will be successful, and if it is not successful, it will be abandoned.
