Chapter 37 Mortar ***** came to this era from the afterlife, these people are their ancestors, technically their own ancestors. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The level of info technology seems to be the opposite of the blood generation. The earlier the person, the higher the seniority, and the earlier the technology appears, the more low-end.

It's just that you are technically tall because you are standing on the high platform accumulated by your predecessors from generation to generation!

If you laugh at Qin Shi Huang because he can't even play WeChat, he is either mentally retarded or cerebral palsy.

At this moment, Gong Nian Huai had some cerebral palsy. You must know that the weapon of the bed crossbow is definitely the most advanced heavy weapon in the time and space of the Great Song Dynasty, there is no one, only the only one.

In his heart, he profoundly carried out an educational reflection on criticism and self-criticism. When he sat back down in the little maza, the three big men around him sat in the back chairs and looked down at him.

Gong Nian Huai made a circle at the three big guys, "Please forgive the kid for being frivolous, don't dare to Meng Lang anymore." As he spoke, he bowed deeply.

Wang Jian got up and supported Gong Nian Huai, "Nian Huai, it's good to be arrogant and stable." But the flesh of a young man shall not be lost. Sit down and teach us, can the three-bow and eight-ox crossbow be operated by three people? ”

Wang Jian hasn't forgotten this stubble, but this stubble is not planted by the public and the Huai, it is Jiang Hai's exaggerated rhetoric, and it can't be true. And Wang Jian seems to firmly believe that Gong Nian Huai can do it.

This person is so strange between people, Gong Nian Huai hasn't done anything yet, Wang Jian believes it first. Wang Ba met mung beans, he was lucky!

The eyes of the three big guys beckoned to Gong Nian Huai, if Gong Nian Huai was a piece of iron that would have evaporated.

You have to scratch your head, how do you say that?

"Uh-huh! The little nephew has never seen my Great Song Dynasty's three-bow and eight-ox crossbow, and whether it can be transformed into a three-person operation, the little nephew is not sure. It is still certain that it will be reduced by half to operate. Gong Yi Nianhuai carefully chose the words.

"Can it be cut in half? This is already very impressive. It was Wang Jian again, and he took the lead in expressing his support for the public loss of Nianhuai.

Meng Hui waved his hand, "Nianhuai seems to have something to say." ”

Yes, Gong Nian Huai does have something to say. He's weighing it. A three-bow eight-ox crossbow is operated by 100 people, and if it can accommodate 100 people to operate, the space will not be small, and the bed crossbow will not be small. With the road conditions of the Song Dynasty, and there is not always a way to go to war, it is more troublesome to transport, and the words of later generations are not strong in mobility, and it is a sharp weapon to defend the city and the wall, once it enters the sports war, I am afraid that the three bows and eight oxen crossbows will not come in handy.

Besides, as a heavy weapon, the three-bowed and eight-ox crossbow is a bit wasteful if it is only used for defense. Wouldn't it be better if there was a weapon that could replace the three-bow and eight-ox crossbow and give full play to the advantages and remove the disadvantages?

Gong Nian Huai has concerns, a gunpowder comes out, the future is uncertain, if you come out with a weapon that is beyond the times, everyone here, including yourself, what will happen? Because these people are far from enough to shake the government. A crime of making weapons without permission can withstand no matter how big the head is.

As an engineer and technician, it is difficult to endure the inefficiency of cold weapons. Everything is still stuck in the use of manpower, and manpower is sometimes poor. A bed crossbow requires hundreds of people, that is, the Han people have such a large human resource to squander, and it is really impossible to change the nationality.

"If you let the kid see the weapons in the army, the little nephew will definitely be able to come up with a way to improve efficiency." Gong Nian Huai did not take care of everything, but was very cautious to express his opinion.

"Well, it makes sense for Nian Huai to say that." Jiang Hai can finally express his opinion happily, for people of his age, the concept is already ingrained, and even if there is a meaning to change, it is only wandering around in the original framework, and it is difficult to have breakthrough ideas.

"If you make some articles on the gunpowder road, do you have any ideas?" Nima's, it's this Meng Hui again, yesterday I just watched a small gunpowder test, and in one night's time, why did my thinking jump out of the way like this?

What do you mean by making some articles on the way to gunpowder, just say make me a cannon.

Gong Nian Huai thought about it, let's just do it, I can't move the gourd and spill the oil, since you want to play like this, then I will accompany you and play.

Gong Nian Huai simply stopped talking this time, took the pen and paper, Wang Jian is also a person with a lot of eyesight, and personally took a small table and asked Gong Nian Huai to use as a desk.

Gong lost the recitation of Huai, the pen walked the dragon and snake, and made a diagram on the paper.

Jiang Hai, Meng Heng, and Wang Jian's three heads came together, covering the entire sky, staring at Gong Yi Nianhuai as if watching ants move.

"Hiss---, hiss----, huh---,huh----" The breathing sounds of the three of them were muffled and frustrated, with different tunes and different rhythms.

Gong Nian Huai drew a picture of a mortar.

This is the type of cannon that Gong Nian Huai has repeatedly selected. In Gong Nian Huai's view, the mortar is a small cannon that can be manufactured in large quantities, with moderate power and easy to carry, two people can carry it on a normal march, plus shells, three people can form a unit. The combined power is definitely above the bed crossbow.

Mortars are difficult to manufacture not only in the barrel, but also in the shells. The reason why Gong Nian Huai was hesitant to come up with such a big killing weapon was that he was not clear about the iron-smelting technology of the Great Song Dynasty, whether he could make a qualified cannon barrel, and Gong Nian Huai had no right to speak.

The drawings of the Gong Nian Huai are very detailed, not only with the data of each part of the mortar barrel, but also with the ballistic patterns after the shell flies out of the barrel.

Since it is a new thing for the Song people, Gong Nian Huai will not spare time and pen and ink, and there will never be the slightest ambiguity if he can express it clearly.

As a civil engineer, how can you still draw drawings of mortars?

This is thanks to our friends in Africa. Gong Nian Huai spends far more time in Africa than at home, and there are two kinds of people who have the most contact in Africa, one is the work partner and the other is the military. Gong Yi Nian Huai may really be a direct descendant of Gong Yi, and curiosity and exploration are his nature.

If you ask Gong Nian Huai to draw a drawing of the AK-47 now, it is definitely trivial. But that thing would never have been created in the time and space of the Great Song Dynasty.

Looking at Gong Nian Huai's ingenious cartographic techniques, the strange-looking cylinder, and the strange warheads flying out of the cylinder, the hearts of the three of them sent out a desperate protest, this pressure was too great, and they couldn't stand it.

After drawing for half an hour, Gong Yi Nianhuai put away his pen, and when he looked up, there were three stupid big guys in front of him, and behind the big guys, there were two people who had been amberized.

They don't know what the thing is called, but what it is used for is clear at a glance. How powerful is it, the public loses and reads Huai is also clearly marked.

Gong Nian Huai made up his mind to speak with data this time. As for the power of mortars, Gong Nian Huai shrank and shrunk, because he still can't figure out the difference between the power of black powder and the power of smokeless gunpowder in later generations.

Even so, the range of the mortar was tentatively set at 300 meters. Because in his opinion, if you can't even hit a distance of 300 meters, then just stop playing, it's boring and embarrassing. Of course, Gong Nian Huai uses the unit of step, and it is a step in later generations, that is, seventy-five centimeters is the standard of one step. 300 meters is 400 steps.

The problem is that the five Song people here and at the station, seeing four hundred steps, their concepts are of course different from those of Gong Nian Huai. If they are all measured in meters, it is 300 meters in Gongyi Nianhuai, and in the eyes of these five Song people, it becomes 600 meters, which is twice as bad.

The distance of 400 paces is incomparable to the distance of 1,000 paces of a bed crossbow, but these five people are not just looking at the range of the mallet, the range is only one aspect of the power of a weapon, not the whole thing.

The three heads slowly parted like lotus flowers in bloom.

Meng Heng stroked his beard with his left hand, and he held the mortar ** drawn by Gong Yi Nianhuai in his right hand, his brows furrowed slightly, I don't know if he couldn't understand it, or he was measuring the power of the mortar.

"Qingyuan, Zhang Yan, what should I do, if a word leaks here, the military law will wait." Jiang Hai squinted at the two people behind him who were holding their necks and roared, Meng Zhijing and Zhang Yan were shocked, arched and saluted, and turned back to the room without saying a word.

Gong Nian Huai also sweated profusely, Nima's, what he threw out, and what it would bring to this time and space, who can say clearly.

"How long does it take to create such a weapon?" Jiang Hai saw that Meng Heng was still looking at the picture, and couldn't help but ask the public to lose Nian Huai.

Gong Yi Nianhuai shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly, "Grandpa Jiang, the little nephew doesn't know anything about the smelting, casting and forging level of my Great Song Dynasty, so he doesn't dare to make a judgment. ”

"Why does this weapon still need to be smelted? Isn't it okay to have a bamboo tube? Jiang Hai looked stunned.

"Goo-dong!" Gong lost Nianhuai almost choked to death, and the cannon tube was made of bamboo? What kind of joke is this, international level, Tai Nima is funny.

Don't blame Jiang Hai for speaking outrageously.

It should be said that Gong Yi Nianhuai's knowledge in this area is a bit unheard.

The first tubular firearms were made of bamboo.

The earliest to develop and use tubular firearms was the prefect of De'an (now Anlu, Hubei) in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty. This tubular firearm is made of a long bamboo pole with a bamboo tube as the barrel. Two or three men are in charge of a musket. Before use, the gunpowder is packed in a bamboo tube, and when the battle is engaged, the fire is lit from the tail and back, and the burning gunpowder is sprayed at the enemy, and the gunpowder can be sprayed several feet away. This weapon is the earliest tubular firearm in the world's military history, and is called "the originator of modern tubular firearms" by later generations. ”

Later, that is, three or four years later, on the eve of the fall of the Jin Kingdom, the Jin people improved on this basis and made flying muskets, which could be operated by individual soldiers. The barrel of the gun is no longer made of bamboo, but is made of a kind of rolled paper called yellow paper, tied to the front of the cold weapon gun with a rope, and when facing the enemy, the gunpowder is lit first, and the enemy is burned with the flame that protrudes from the head of the gun, and when the fire is exhausted, the enemy is pierced with the gun. It is a mixture of hot and cold weapons. It was also the earliest individual musket in the history of the world.
