Chapter 14 Experimental Production
"Brother Feng, then let's decide, when I get a weapon, I will inform you, food, ore, and coal can be used to exchange weapons. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "Jiang Tao and the wind of the mountain are like a person.
"Big brother won't let you suffer." Drilling Wind, who thinks he has found the source of the weapon, is also full of interest, which means that he has solved his worries.
Jiang Tao, who had negotiated it, left the cottage where the mountain wind was drilled, and continued to drive his small carriage towards his village. returned to his cottage, and before he could speak, he was dragged away by Wen Daxing.
"Come and see, how about this blast furnace I built?"
Within a few days, a small blast furnace had appeared in its place. Although it is still a refractory brick shell, it is not as dazzling as the metal shell, but it is its own metallurgical equipment. “
"Jiang Tao, this small blast furnace has been built, but we must at least have a stable source of metal minerals, I took a few people to look around, and found that there is a place called Tieling near us There are many open-pit coal mines and iron mines, and there is also a steel mill of the Northeast Army over there, we can find out if there are any open-pit mines that have not been discovered to mine and mine."
"I think it's okay, those Japanese have seized a lot of people's land, and those who have been seized are homeless, we can collect it first to mine, and if there is a good performance, we can also let him join our army." Jiang Tao remembered a few people who came out yesterday and found a way to quickly accumulate manpower. During the ancient Chinese rebellion, those displaced people could easily gather tens of thousands of people as long as they had a stutter, and now these people I have collected still have a grudge against the Japanese, and it should be very effective to choose their own team to fight Japan when the time comes. Jiang Tao's idea was correct in the general direction, but he neglected that some people were soft bones, and later paid a heavy price for it.
"By the way, I negotiated a deal with a bearded man named Drill Mountain Wind, and the coal, grain, and iron ingots he robbed in the future will be sent to us, so let's exchange weapons with him."
"This method is very good, we are originally an arsenal, let's hand over these things that attract hatred to them." Wenda also said with a smile when he heard Jiang Tao's idea.
"By the way, when will the open-hearth you mentioned last time arrive, I will get a batch of iron ore to be refined into fine iron with the blast furnace first, and then use the open-hearth furnace to make steel, I have to take a good look at whether the steel we made is up to standard or not, and whether it can be self-sufficient."
"Don't worry, no problem." Jiang Tao is still full of confidence in the system in his mind.
"Okay, then remember to call me when you're ready." It was getting late, and Wenda was afraid that her sister would worry about her, so she left in a hurry.
Jiang Tao hurriedly used the system to exchange this Donggong-style 1.5-ton small open-hearth stove. Then I hurried home.
"Brother Tao, you can be regarded as back, I'm dying." The monkeys were about to cry when they saw him.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Tao asked puzzled.
"You made a deal with Lao Maozi, and I heard that someone burned the devil's countryside, so I guessed that it was you, but there was no response later, so I was afraid that you would be blackened by Lao Maozi."
"How do you speak, how ugly it is to eat black." Jiang Tao's face was full of emotion, and the monkey's concern for himself also made Jiang Tao swear in his heart that he must let his people live well in this troubled world.
Seeing that Jiang Tao was fine, the monkey was relieved. And they went back to sleep.
As soon as the sky was bright, Jiang Tao went to find Wenda, and he didn't knock on the door, and went in as soon as he pushed the door.
"Ah, what time is it? What are you looking for me? No matter how good-tempered a person is, he is also angry to get up, and Wenda, who was woken up by Jiang Tao, looked unhappy.
"It's the little open-hearth I told you about."
"What, it's only been a long time, you got the open-hearth to the cottage and installed it, you won't be making fun of me, will you?" Venda's tone was full of suspicion.
"Hey, don't believe it, hurry up and follow me to the cottage to have a look, if I lie to you, I'll wash your clothes for a year."
"Then it's decided, anyway, I'm sure I won't lose money."
The two rushed to the cottage as fast as they could, "What the hell, you're really a girl!" Deeply surprised, Wenda couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.
"Good fellow, this little open-hearth fire filling is sprayed into the melting chamber at the same time from both sides ("in both directions"), not in the usual flat slope regenerator, but with a heat exchanger. This kind of dizi overcomes the shortcomings of the general flat slope and preserves the advantages of the general flat slope. It's really a wonderful design, who are you looking for, no one in China has this ability. Wen Da looked at the small hearth carefully and looked at Jiang Tao with a suspicious gaze.
"You don't care about this, people also collect money to do things, and I have to help others keep secrets!" Jiang Tao prevaricated.
"Okay, if you don't want to say it, forget it, this person has real skills, you have to have a good relationship with others." Wenda deeply advised Jiang Tao to establish and maintain this relationship, in his mind, this kind of design can only be done with a perfect team, and it is not easy to find such people in China.
"Then let's try to produce it." Jiang Tao couldn't wait to see his arsenal put into operation, so last night he drew the drawings of the Zang rifle he designed and distributed them to the people of the factory protection team, and carefully explained the process several times, planning to let the people of the factory protection team play a cameo role as a worker first.
"Wait for me a while, I'll get some iron ore and coal." Before the voice fell, Wenda dragged a member of the factory protection team and drove the carriage to the steel mill in Tieling.
After waiting for more than half an hour, Wenda finally came back with a cart of iron ore and coal, "Quickly burn the blast furnace, and you guys go and burn the steam engine too, and put the belt on the blower." As soon as he jumped out of the carriage, Venda took command. Seeing that the steam engine drove the blower to blow a large amount of oxygen into the preheating chamber of the blast furnace, Wenda looked at the color of the furnace fire and signaled the team members to add iron ore from the top of the furnace.
"Hey, just wait now, the molten iron will be produced in a while, let's connect the channel of the molten iron to the open hearth first, and the open hearth can also be preheated." Wenda took a look and seemed confident in his design.
After a while, Wenda motioned to the team members to open the door of the molten iron furnace, and the red flowed out, and there were also team members on the side to fish out the slag floating in the molten iron, the coal had already burned on both sides of the open hearth, and the fierce flames made the temperature rise rapidly nearby. "Add some iron ore and limestone." Venda continued to command from the side, "The next thing is to wait. “
Jiang Tao and Wen Da were not short of patience, and connected the exit to the mold that had been prepared a long time ago, "You even have prepared the mold for the barrel," Wen Da asked in surprise when he saw the mold that was thicker than the barrel.
Soon, the molten steel flowed out and condensed into a solid steel pipe in the mold, Jiang Tao drilled a hole slightly smaller than the bore diameter of the barrel, and then used a high-hardness die with a protrusion corresponding to the rifling wire, and used a high-pressure machine to press down from the hole while turning, and squeezed the material into a rifling wire and a male wire. Soon the rifling of one of the barrels was processed, and the team then cut the outside of the barrel. A barrel is complete.
The barrel of the 92-type infantry gun Jiang Tao is not worried about others processing, personally started, after all, there is no electroslag remelting, and there is no self-tightening equipment, even if it is a low-pressure howitzer, Jiang Tao is also a little uneasy, after cutting the barrel, the drill bit exchanged in the system began to drill rifling the barrel, fortunately, the caliber is only 70 mm, Jiang Tao in order to be just in case, the thickness of the barrel is set thicker than the original. I plan to deal with it like this first, but it is unavoidable to increase the weight of the cannon
The team members also quickly finished the other parts, because there was really no optical equipment, and the aiming of the infantry guns could only rely on experience, and the guns and infantry guns were quickly assembled. The experiment of firearms is good to say, and all indicators really meet the requirements. But the infantry cannon made it difficult for everyone, and no one present had ever played it!
There was no way, Wenda had to go to his brother and find a loyal and reliable artilleryman to test the gun
