Chapter 225: Rejuvenating the country through science and technology
Cui Sleeve is like a little heel, as long as Hao Ren comes out of the room of his wife, he can always 'coincidentally' meet Cui Sleeve happily pounced, and then took Hao Ren's arm and chattered endlessly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
What's 'Gangnam fun?' 'Isn't it fun to fight?' Sometimes, it's really interesting, and sometimes it's just nothing to say!
Although Cui Sleeve is eccentric and pleasing to everyone, he has a poor background, he was sold into the Jiaofang Division by his parents at a young age, and was almost eaten by Zhang Mingjian, who ate people, it was Hao Ren who saved her and treated her as a sister, so in the entire Shuai Mansion, she only regarded Hao Ren as his only relative.
The weather in November, Huainan has been below zero, Hao Ren to ensure the quality of work, 'the golden wind and jade dew meet, it will win but countless in the world', often go for an hour or two, waiting outside the cui sleeves, often small faces are frozen red, small hands are cold.
"Simply, I will take you with me wherever I go in the future, I don't have to wait outside deliberately, when I go out, I will send someone to your room to call you!" Hao Ren saw that she was also a painstaking person, and his big hand warmed the small hand of Cui Sleeve, and said thoughtfully.
Tears fell straight down the tears that moved Cui Sleeves: "Big brother, you are so good!" ”
The lack of father's love and dependence on adult men is a common trait of a person with a background like Cui Sleeve, but Cui Sleeve is more exciting than ordinary girls and is better at expressing it!
With Hao Ren here, Cui Sleeve is the noble 'girl' of the Shuai Mansion, what if there is no Hao Ren? Who will be considerate of her? It's not like I've fallen back on the streets and returned to the Church Division.
Confucius said: Chromophobia also! The matter of eating and drinking men and women is the nature of human beings, and Hao Ren is not exempt from vulgarity, not to mention that all the wives and rooms are full of beauties, and they must always be evenly wet with rain and dew, and they must not be absurd/lewd/lustful, which delays the right thing.
Although Robben is only twenty-three years old, he is indeed a capable official, and he can write Liu Bei as a good person in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which shows that he is also a kind-hearted person.
During the period when Hao Ren crossed the river, he sent new soldiers from all over the country and trained 20,000 soldiers.
The enemy's artillery range has already caught up with the three-pounder artillery of the Qingfeng army, although the mobility and rate of fire are not as good as the artillery of the Qingfeng army, but this has already constituted a threat to the Qingfeng army, and the improvement of artillery is imminent!
The general workshop on Feishui in Luzhou is the place where Hao Ren must inspect!
Luzhou will workshop 10,000 households Jiao Ting is a famous coppersmith in Luzhou, and now because of his meritorious casting, he has been promoted to 10,000 households in Luzhou workshop, casting, is his strength.
"Don't worry, my lord, this matter is not difficult, it is nothing more than increasing the length of the muzzle, slightly increasing the ammunition compartment, and at the same time increasing the thickness of the gun wall!" Wan Hu Jiao Ting, hearing Hao Ren's description, patted his chest, and said with confidence.
"I know it's not difficult, there are thousands of households! However, there is one more thing that is tricky! As he spoke, Hao Ren took out a drawing and handed it to Jiao Ting.
Jiao Ting took the drawings, studied for a long time, frowned and said: "Make the cannon so small, you can fire it by hand, this is indeed a bit difficult, the cannon casting is thin, it is easy to explode, the medicine is less, and it has no power!" ”
"This is not called artillery, it is called a musket!" Hao Ren said.
Muskets? The pear flower gun that can breathe fire is almost the same as a musket, and this small firearm can be called a gun like a cannon. Besides, there is no spear head with a 'sword, a sword, and a halberd'? Isn't it obviously a cannon with a wooden handle!
Jiao Ting was full of suspicions, thinking that with the current casting process, if he wanted to make such a small firearm, he couldn't use it for war at all.
"This kind of firearm, it is said that it cannot be poured, you have to drill holes in the whole iron ingot, and remove the excess iron, leaving only a round iron pipe, this is very laborious, the shooting is not yet formed, it needs to be tested in practice, Master Jiao take your time, don't rush!" Hao Ren also put forward guiding opinions.
"It's not difficult to drill holes, we use waterwheels as the power, and the speed is always faster than manual!" Jiao Ting thought hard and said to Hao Ren.
"Master Jiao will think about making the barrel of the musket first, and then take your time, and the most important thing, do you know anything?" Hao Ren said compassionately.
Jiao Ting was stunned, scratched his head and said: "Needless to say, the most important thing is to keep it secret!" ”
Hao Ren nodded with satisfaction, and said: "This drawing can only be seen by you and Jiao Yu, and the others are not allowed to know!" ”
"Don't worry, my lord, even if I cut off my head, I can't violate the discipline of the workshop!" Jiao Ting said firmly.
Hao Ren doesn't know about machinery, but in the wild history of the stall school, he has a cursory look at the ancient musket manufacturing process, but after two years of traveling life, he almost forgot what his mother's name was, how could he still remember these irrelevant things in later generations.
The barrel of the musket must be drilled out of a whole piece of iron ingot, in order to ensure that the barrel does not explode when fired, and the inner wall of the barrel must be regular enough to be smooth, otherwise it will affect the shooting, it is said that a mature craftsman, to drill out a qualified musket, it will also take about three months, this labor alone, is a huge expense, and the power does not know how.
The manufacture of muskets, judging from the current conditions, is the most difficult to make a barrel, and Hao Ren really doesn't understand the rest, so he can only rely on the craftsmen to explore in practice.
The drawings drawn by Hao Ren are just an iron pipe, with a wooden support, not even a trigger, and the design is completely fired by ignition, no wonder Jiao Ting will treat the gun as an artillery, and the musket designed by Hao Ren is the same as the artillery in principle.
As for Hao Ren's so-called musket, what kind of fire can be caused in the end, whether it is inferior to the rate of fire and range of the crossbow (hand crossbow), it is unknown!
Even if Hao Ren doesn't understand this, he just thinks with his toes, and he also knows that guns are the development trend of future wars, and what semi-automatic rifles are not considered, no matter what kind of guns are made, there is a blueprint, and it can be slowly improved, with the current technology, there is no design concept, it can be completely manufactured!
In the official history of China, the first musket to be used in actual combat was Mu Ying, the king of Zhennan in the early Ming Dynasty, and according to the rate of fire of the musket, he invented the three-stage shot that was quoted by later generations for nearly a thousand years.
Just like when Hao Ren first crossed over, he painstakingly wanted to increase the yield of grain, and now the two crops have been growing in the past, and even the chief officer of high crop breeding has been replaced by Yu Dechen from Yu Dechen, and now I don't know, how is the crop breeding in Shouzhou!
