141 5 Thor Machine - the earliest large-caliber revolver

(Chapter 3 is sent, asking for support.) )

It's just that later, these things, the glory of the Han dynasty, were completely overturned by that barbaric and backward dynasty, and those advanced firearms were also abolished as KitKat's silver skills.

"The Qing Dynasty will take the world immediately, there is no need for such kitsch silver skills, from now on, it will be abolished as a whole, and then there will be private researchers, the Zhu clan!"

This is really the most disgusting of the countless ridiculous words of that decaying dynasty in the past three hundred years.

Since then, a hundred years behind! How much blood did it take for people with lofty ideals to catch up?

And in this time and space, the Ming Dynasty has not yet reached the point where the country has fallen and the king has been hanged, and it is far from the end of the road, but it is indeed already beginning to self-destruct the Great Wall. Wang Qiong, the secretary of the military department, and other great officials of the national dynasty, could not see the advanced surname of firearms, which was a leading instrument of the times.

In this era, limited to technical reasons, firearms are prone to moisture, slow rate of fire, short range, inconvenient, difficult logistical supply, although there are many problems and difficulties, sometimes even not as good as those strong bows and crossbows, but after all, it is ahead of the times. Lian Zining, a person from the next generation, knows very well that this is the real sharp weapon and killing weapon that will rule this planet for hundreds of years in the future!

This is the trend of the times!

The battalion has a total of 5,000 officers and soldiers, 3,600 infantry, 3,600 bolts of thunderbolt guns, a total of 9,000 pounds of gunpowder, and 900,000 lead weights; cavalry 1,000 men; There are 400 artillery personnel, equipped with 200 Dalian Zhu guns (multi-barreled guns) and 675 pounds of gunpowder, 400 handles (artillery self-defense guns), and 160 general guns (field heavy artillery).

The Shenji Battalion was equipped with a complete range of firearms, a high rate of application of firearms, and very powerful firepower under the conditions at that time, and should be regarded as the first new-style army in ancient China with firearms as its main equipment. This kind of read-force artillery unit was in a leading position in China and even other countries in the world at that time, about a century earlier than the Spanish musketeers in Europe that were first established in the middle of the 16th century.

Think about how brilliant and magnificent the original Shenji Battalion was? And now, the dynasty no longer has an army that uses firearms, so much so that it has to rely on the way of training a new army to form a firearms army, how can people not sigh?

Lian Zining suddenly felt that the burden on his body was a little heavier, this new army, he must be trained into a strong army!

Lian Zining said to himself silently in his heart.

After greeting for a while and taking a few sips of tea, Gonggong Xu and a few horsemen said goodbye and left, of course, Lian Zining had to offer a considerable amount of silver. Anyway, he doesn't lack this money now, and now he is alone, and if he can get a little relationship, it will be regarded as a good fate.

The birds on the cart had already been unloaded and transported to the storeroom.

Lian Zining couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and he couldn't care about the image, and after sending away the angels, he ran to the warehouse, and the soldiers looked at each other, and rarely saw their own adults so disrespectful.

The storehouse was on one side of the Tatsuji, and several empty rooms were vacated, and the floor was covered with oilcloth and stacked with bundles of birds. The birds were about four feet long, and were all cast of brass and iron, and looked well maintained, glowing with a faint yellow light. The handle of the gun is thick, the grip is curved, and in the place of the barrel, there are five one-and-a-half-foot-long barrels in a circle!

It resembles a revolver machine gun from later generations!

Lian Zining suddenly trembled, his heart pounded, and a large amount of blood was instantly compressed into his heart, only to feel a burst of blackness in front of him!

It turned out to be the Five Thunder God Machine?!

The Five Thunder God Machine, even in Lian Zining's time, was a well-known term.

It has a deafening name - the first large-caliber revolver.

Five thunder god machine in, this is the name of the Ming Dynasty, if you use the professional terminology of the West at the same time, it should be called a five-barreled single arquebus, the tube is cast with fine iron, each tube is one foot five, a total weight of five catties, surrounded by a handle and row, there is a crosshair, the tube charge is 2 money, a lead bullet, a common fire door, the barrel can be rotated, and the ignition is fired to the next fire door, and the flat fire can reach one hundred and twenty steps.

According to the weights and measures of the Ming Dynasty, one step is five feet, one hundred and twenty steps, that is, six hundred feet, and one foot in the Ming Dynasty is more than 31 centimeters and 600 feet, that is, more than 200 meters.

Even if there is moisture, the range is at least 100 meters.

Lian Zining took a long breath, calmed down his surging mood slightly, he untied the rope that was tied, took out a five-thunder god machine from it, and took it in his hand to observe it carefully.

As soon as Pu started, it sank slightly, almost about twenty catties, which was far heavier than other models of muskets of the same era, after all, the five tubes added up to a lot of weight, and the middle pillar. Although it has been kept in the inner house for I don't know how many years, the gun in my hand is still as clean as new, and it can be seen that it must have been carefully maintained. The five barrels, each about the thickness of two thumbs, were roughly between twenty and twenty-five millimeters in caliber, according to Lian Zining's estimate.

The five barrels of the gun surrounded an iron pillar in the middle, and shimmered with a cold blue light, which was the characteristic light of fine steel, and he reached out and stroked the edge of the barrel, and it was cold and smooth to the end, without even the slightest burr. Lian Zining couldn't help but admire, in this fascinating era, China is too strong and excellent, such a casting process is only available in the whole world, that is, in the Ming Dynasty.

Behind the five barrels was a brass cast grip, about two feet long, straight at the front and curved at the rear, forming a graceful arc that was more suitable for the grip of the human hand, and with several anti-skid lines cast on it. Behind the five barrels of the gun is a hanging arquebus, revealing its identity.

If it weren't for this arquebus, it would really be the same as the revolver machine guns of later generations.

Lian Zining fascinated the heavy and textured firearm in his hand, almost moaning in disbelief.

The firearms of the Ming Dynasty, both in terms of quantity, quality and technical level, are the best in the world, and there is no one!

One Shenji battalion was armed with 3,600 thunderbolt guns, 900,000 rounds of ammunition, 200 Dalian bead guns, 200 hand guns, and 160 field heavy artillery. During the Wanli period, 60,000 furlong cannons were made for the coastal guards at one time, what kind of appalling number is this?
