072 Lighters

"Xiaozhu temporarily sits down, and there is an old alliance when you are worried."

"Call the bottle to greet the guests, wave and sit and talk."

"The cloud toothpick is full, and the star is full of swords."

"It's not my intention to be a marquis, but I hope the sea is peaceful!"

This is obviously a poem written by a soldier, with straightforward wording and heart-to-heart.

Too many people sit back and relax, but Qi Jiguang always thinks about his former ally Japan.

He studied martial arts all day long, feasting and talking about soldiers, just to show his revenge.

What is the use of a marquis? When will I be on the battlefield?

Qi Jiguang didn't dare to announce this poem, but with his military book, I don't know when, who gave it to, lingered, and let Yang Changfan see it.

At that time, it was 19-year-old enthusiasm, and in front of me was 27-year-old embarrassment.

Yang Changfan didn't plan to stop like this, he just wanted to use all the words of his life to make a loud noise.

"I hope the sea is flat!" Yang Changfan was too hard, and he was about to squeeze out tears, "I have lived on the coast of the East China Sea since I was a child, I have heard and seen too many evil deeds of the Japanese people, and I have the opportunity to read the general's poems, I can't help but climb to the north and look at a place thousands of miles away, and pray to God in my heart, the general will come quickly, come quickly, save my people in the southeast, save my father, my wife, and children, only a person like the general can be called a general!" ”

Qi Jiguang was dumbfounded, why did a person shoot his sycophants so justifiably, and he burst into tears.

"I can't read books, but I've been good at craftsmanship since I was a child, and I can only do my part for the arrival of the general. In the hard work of learning the skills of the people, drawing improvement, only hope that I will be a Ming weapon, not lost to others. There was a dream in the next, the general trained the troops, and the weapons were made under the war, and the war against the Japanese was defeated! Unstoppable! Today, I am fortunate to see the general who has been thinking about it for a long time, how can I not be excited? Just ask the general to give a chance, just ask for a chance, and you will create an unprecedented magic weapon in the future! For the Qi family's army! ”

Yang Changfan admired himself a little, how did he make up such a character in an instant, although it was illogical, but it was logical.

After hearing this, Qi Jiguang had to really pay attention to the big man in front of him, and his thinking was really temporarily withdrawn from family affairs, and he remembered that when Yang Changfan heard the news of the Japanese Invaders, he ran all the way from Lihai to Shaoxing and then to Hangzhou, which was already very rare.

"Brother Xian, please take a seat first." Qi Jiguang hurriedly got up and supported Yang Changfan, "I was upset just now, and Brother Xian's words were not chewed carefully." I do have some ideas for improving weapons and equipment, so I might as well talk about them in detail. ”

"Huh......" Yang Changfan exhaled and wiped the corners of his eyes, "The general can be regarded as a sincere talk." ”

It's time for him to see the power of modern armament.

Of course, step by step...... Alloys are not yet.

"General, there are a lot of ideas, let's start with the simplest."

"Please."

"Improved Bird Guns."

"How to change?"

"Abandon the fire rope and change the hair!"

Regarding this point, Yang Changfan had already thought of it when he was repairing the cannon in Lihai, but he was too far away from the armaments, there were no craftsmen around him, and he couldn't afford to buy equipment and materials, plus he was in a hurry to start a family and make money, and his strength was useless. But Qi Jiguang in front of him is now in charge of the weapons affairs of the Zhejiang Capital Division, and this is a God-given opportunity, which cannot be missed.

The principle of any gun is the same in any era.

Make power, propelle ammunition.

Specifically, it relies on gunpowder combustion to propel ammunition.

Of course, gunpowder as a power force is not absolute, at least there can be air guns, water guns, at the bottom of the tide, it can be beam guns, ion guns, and Yang Changfan's most optimistic super electromagnetic gun girl and so on...... However, returning to reality, what is really meaningful in combat is still inseparable from the simple principle of gunpowder explosion -- ammunition ejection, from the first launch of Genghis Khan's copper fire gun to the automatic optical aiming rifle of the US Marine Corps.

For hundreds of years, the development of firearms has been to continuously optimize the process of explosion and launch.

Yang Changfan couldn't have directly turned into an infrared device or an anti-tank missile, but there was always a way to get rid of that damn arquebus.

Lihai's cannon should be lit with arquebus, and the same is true of the gun in the hands of the Ming army.

The bird gun is also an improvement from the Western musket, which is equivalent to holding a small musket, although it has been improved, but the terrible firing steps remain the same - pouring the charge, charging the fire, pressing the fire, reloading, loading the door medicine, loading the fire rope, opening the door cover, igniting the fire rope, and finally pulling the trigger.

Even if so much is done, the range is only a hundred meters.

This preparation time was enough for the Mongol cavalry to charge over from a hundred meters away.

Don't dare to say anything else, Yang Changfan can at least make something that can be fired on this basis.

"Suifa?" Qi Jiguang finally became interested when he heard this, and finally had something real, "Then the stone is on fire?" How does it work? ”

"General Qi is also proficient in craftsmanship!" Yang Changfan compared this, "Great principles are simple-"

As he spoke, his palms spread, his fingertips pressed together, and his palms parted to form a triangle.

"The left palm is the fire door, the right palm is the flint, as soon as the trigger is opened, the spring is forced, and the flints collide!"

When the words fell, Yang Changfan's left and right palms "snapped" together.

Qi Jiguang's eyes gradually widened, and he sighed without thinking: "Wonderful! ”

This is a knowledge that modern middle school students understand, something as simple as the principle of a lighter, but for the ancients, it was a technological leap.

Indeed, this is not too difficult to understand, but when China comes out to improve it alone, it will take half a century, and it is certainly not the Chinese who are stupid, everything is a pot of the system.

"That's a wonderful thing! Wonderful! Qi Jiguang thought about it carefully, and realized how much this simple principle progress had changed the bird's gun - the launch interval was at least halved.

For example, the Mongolian cavalry could fire one shot when they ran 150 meters, but if this technology is really realized, then 75 meters is enough to make up for one shot.

Don't underestimate this little bit of time, in a way, 1000 guns become 2000 doors!

At this moment, the wife and concubine entered the hall with a plate, and Mrs. Qi saw that the two were talking heartily, so she did not interrupt, but only made a gesture to close her voice, and gently placed the meal on the table with her sister.

Qi Jiguang had already gotten up excitedly and paced left and right: "Wonderful! Wonderful! One gun is used for two! ”

"General, more than that, there is a big plus!" Yang Changfan followed closely and said, "You don't have to light a fire, don't be afraid of rain." ”

"That's right! No need for a firerope! Flame! Qi Jiguang went to punch his fist, and became more and more excited, "Have you ever heard of the battle of Qiuheiheun?" ”

"No......" Yang Changfan must have never heard of it, what kind of place does a bird not.
