Chapter 544: It's ridiculous
Li Feibai said: "If you want to increase the range of the Franc aircraft, there are not ten, but also eight!" ”
Wang Feng did not think about increasing the range of the Franc machine, not only racking his brains, but also pulling the craftsmen to rack his brains together, and the final result was that the Franc machine wanted to increase the range was not impossible, and it could only be achieved by sacrificing the rate of fire. If the range is increased without sacrificing the rate of fire, it is nonsense.
Li Feibai dared to say that there were ten or eight ways to increase the range of the Franco, which sounded to him tantamount to a cannon of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Wang humbly asked Li Gongzi for advice on these methods!" ”
Li Feibai waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this for the time being, I'll continue to talk about the weakness of the Franc machine!" He walked directly in front of the Franco, pointed to the muzzle of the cannon, and said, "The muzzle of the cannon is so big, the power is so small, and the caliber is so large." ”
The power of the Fran machine is greater than all the cannons made by the Ming Dynasty before, but it has been accused of being less powerful!
Wang Feng endured it, and finally couldn't hold back, and said: "So Li Gongzi can build a cannon with a long range and great power!" After a pause, he added, "And the rate of fire is as fast as that of the Fur Franc!" ”
Li Feibai said: "Is the rate of fire of the Franc machine fast?" In my opinion, this is the rate of fire......" He raised a little thumb and shook it twice at the ground, and added, "I want to build a cannon with a rate of fire ten times that of the Franc, twenty times the range of the Franc, and a hundred times more power." However, this can only be done with the cooperation of Lord Wang. ”
Wang Hong's heart moved, if there is really a world with a rate of fire ten times that of the Franco machine, a range of 20 times that of the Franco machine, and a hundred times the power of the Franco machine, even if there is only one or two doors in the Ming Dynasty, it can be invincible in the world!
Is there really such a powerful cannon in the world?
Absolutely impossible!
The structure of the Fran machine sub-mother cannon is already extremely fast, how can it be improved ten times to this extent. It is possible that the range of the Franc machine is 20 times more and the power is 100 times more, and the easiest way is to change the Franc machine from rear loading to front loading, so that there is no gap in the rear and the range is far.
If you increase the muzzle of the gun, increase it by more than ten or twenty times, and increase the amount of gunpowder by more than ten or twenty times at the same time, it may make the range of the Franc machine reach twenty times higher, and the power is a hundred times greater.
The question is, how can such a concoction be transported?
It is very difficult to pull a thousand-pound Franc machine in a horse-drawn carriage, and what is the transportation of twenty thousand-pound Franc machines.
Even if the problem of delivery is solved, how can the speed of loading ammunition be solved?
Loading ammunition from the muzzle is inherently slow, and now that the amount of ammunition has increased twentyfold, doesn't it take a day to reload it?
And how to solve the problem of the material of the barrel! If the barrel is an inch thicker, the degree of hardness of the material used must be doubled. The barrel is twenty times thicker, so what material do you have to use to make the barrel?
If you use the copper or steel that can be used now, and you can do it with one shot, what will be the result? Not to mention bombarding the enemy, I'm afraid that it will explode directly, so many gunpowder will explode, how many people will die on my side!
Therefore, it is impossible to increase both the rate of fire and the range of artillery, as well as its power. Even if the rate of fire is abandoned, it is impossible to increase only the range and power!
Li Feibai said: "Looking at Lord Wang's expression, I don't believe that the two of us can't make such a cannon if we work together!" ”
Wang Feng said: "Li Gongzi is a very thoughtful person, very daring to think, I admire the five-body throw. But there are a few doubts I want to ask Li Gongzi for advice! ”
Then, he pointed out several issues that he was thinking about one by one.
When Guo Xun heard that Li Feibai wanted to build an artillery gun with a rate of fire ten times that of the Franco, a range twenty times that of the Franco, and a three-force artillery that was 100 times that of the Franco, he was so happy that he didn't know how to describe it.
If the Ming Dynasty has this cannon, it will definitely be powerful!
As soon as he heard the problems listed by Wang Hong, he knew that this kind of cannon could not be built. But the cannon Li Feibai said is really tempting, I really hope to make such a cannon, with a hint of fantasy, see how Li Feibai answers.
Li Feibai said: "Regarding loading ammunition and increasing the rate of fire, I think about it like this......"
After he finished explaining the method of loading shells for modern artillery, Wang Feng and the other four, together with Guo Xun, were all dumbfounded and speechless for a long time.
Can a cannon be made like this? The tail of the gun can be opened like a door, and once the ammunition is loaded, it can be locked as if it were closed! What kind of brain can come up with such an incredible cannon, and what kind of ingenuity and ingenuity can make such a cannon!
Guo Xun said: "I understand, reserve a mouthful at the end of the tail, load the flint iron sheet, pull the trigger, and let the flint hit the iron sheet to ignite the gunpowder!" In this way, it is indeed possible to increase the rate of fire of the gun. ”
After Wang Feng looked at Li Feibai's reformed firecracker, he was amazed by Li Feibai's wonderful idea, and he also understood the meaning of Guo Xun's words, and said: "The gun is small, and its body can be equipped with a trigger." The cannon is too large to be equipped with a trigger, but it can be used to use other mechanisms to make the flint hit the iron piece and rub out a spark to ignite the gunpowder. But ......"
He paused, looked at Li Feibai, and said: "If the tail of the cannon can be tightly buckled, it can have the effect of sealing and secreting, and preventing the heat wave after the explosion of gunpowder from spilling out, it can indeed increase the range of the artillery, but the range is at most twenty or thirty steps more, and it is not more than fifty steps, and it cannot reach the effect of ten times the effect you said, and the power will not increase by one and a half stars." ”
He shook his head and said, "The cowhide you brag about can't be realized after all." And the artillery you envisioned was a hundred times more complex than the Franc machine at this time, and the cost of increasing the firing range by only fifty steps seemed to outweigh the loss! ”
Li Feibai said: "If you still use the method that my Uncle Guo said, I will build it alone, how can I seek cooperation with Lord Wang!" ”
Wang Feng was stunned for a moment and said, "If you don't build it according to the method that Guo Taibao said, what method can you use?" ”
Li Feibai said: "There is no reserved hole on the tail of the gun, and there is no such thing as flint iron sheets. The tail of the gun is opened, and the loaded ammunition is locked, which is integrated with the gun body, so that there will be no gaps to leak the gas generated after the explosion of gunpowder, increasing the firing range. ”
Wang Feng and the others were dumbfounded again. How to ignite the ammunition inside the cannon without leaving holes, how to shoot if it does not ignite the ammunition inside. Even the wise can make mistakes. Li Feibai made a lot of calculations, and in the end, he finally missed the most critical step!
Wang Feng smiled: "If you don't leave holes, how can you ignite the cannon?" Don't you think about using a long twist of medicine to fire from the muzzle? ”
When the others heard this, they laughed too.
If, in the end, it is really necessary to fire the cannon from the muzzle, it will not be a waste of all the work done to do it! After hundreds of thousands of years of development, it was changed from the front to the rear to increase the range and power of the cannon.
Li Feibai smiled, and that smile was actually full of pity, sympathizing with them.
Wang Feng said: "What, isn't it lighting a fire in front?" ”
Li Feibai said: "No! ”
Wang Feng said: "Then how do you ignite the ammunition inside?" Could it be that after igniting the powder twist, the tail of the cannon is quickly locked? The question is, what happens if the twist goes out for various reasons? Do you want to open the tail of the cannon and then point it? At that time, if the medicine twist is not extinguished, and the ammunition explodes after opening, won't you blow yourself up! ”
After that, he laughed out loud to show that what Li Feibai said was too ridiculous! laughed twice, realizing that Li Feibai was a person appreciated by Guo Xun, and he didn't dare to laugh anymore. When he looked up and saw that Guo Xun was also smiling, he didn't force it and continued to laugh.
