Chapter 264: Mini Bullet and Chili

"Bang! Bang! ”

Two gunshots broke the silence of the early morning.

As the green smoke gradually dissipated, Chu Fan and Sun Hedou slowly walked to the edge of the tree twenty meters away, and two large wooden planks with several layers of thick layers were hanging on the chest-high tree.

After the left plank was removed, the two of them examined it, and the lead penetrated both planks, stopping before the third; The plank on the right has been pierced through three pieces!

"Wow! Uncle Junior, what kind of bullet are you really better than ordinary leads...... "Looking at it, Sun Hedou's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he looked at Chu Fan with admiration, and after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't find the right words to describe it.

"Be fast!" Chu Fan carefully looked at the lead pellet that had been completely deformed, and replied casually, "Fast speed means longer range and stronger penetration...... Also, it's called Mini Bullet. ”

When it comes to transforming bullets, the first thing that comes to Chu Fan's mind is Mini bullets!

Although the Mini bullet was invented in real history to solve the problem of rifled gun gas holding, why can't it be used in smoothbore guns?

Chu Fan had already discovered that due to manual processing, it was impossible for the lead shot they used now to be pure spherical, so Lu Mi Gong still had the problem of holding his breath - every time he pulled the trigger, the lead shot had not yet come out, and the smoke had already begun to spray out.

The Mini bullet can perfectly solve this problem - the huge thrust of the fire * powder gas through the cork props open the concave bottom of the Mini bullet, so that it opens and fits the chamber tightly, which perfectly solves the problem of breath holding.

There's also a huge benefit to using Mini Bullets - it's easier to reload!

Since the caliber of the Mini bullet is slightly smaller than the caliber of the chamber, when the gun is pierced into the chamber with a strip, it will not be as laborious as a spherical lead shot - sometimes the error in the production of the lead shot is a little larger, and the whole strip cannot be pierced, how can you not delay things on the battlefield?

So yesterday, Chu Fan personally guided the production of several streamlined warheads and Mini bullets with a concave bottom. And glued cork to the concave bottom, which led to today's test launch.

When he first started making Mini bullets, Sun Hedou still didn't believe that Chu Fan could make the projectile go farther without increasing the amount of medicine - in his opinion, what does the projectile have to do with the shape of the projectile being pushed forward by gunpowder gas?

He was a typical positivist. Pulling Chu Fan to test the gun early this morning, the result was naturally self-evident, which made Sun Hedou convinced, and admired his little uncle even more - how did he know to increase the range by changing the shape?

"Uncle Junior, this Mini bullet is good, but it's too troublesome to make!" After Sun Hedou sighed, he raised a new question, "Yesterday, it took nearly an hour to see that craftsman only make a few pieces, if you want to do it in large quantities......"

"Don't worry about that...... Walk! Let's go and see if the customized Mini bullet is ready! Chu Fan smiled when he heard this. But the king looked at him left and right - he had already thought of a solution.

Just after the figures of the two disappeared into the morning fog that had not yet dissipated, at the edge of the camp camp, a gray head stretched out of the tent, and after looking at the sky for a while, Xi Suosuo walked out, but it was an old man over the age of six.

The old man's surname is Zhao, and everyone calls him Lao Zhaotou, and he is one of the few crop handles in the second batch of homeless people - Chu Fan specially recruited four crop handles. Almost all of them are the same as Lao Zhaotou, with decades of experience in serving crops.

At this moment, Lao Zhao was carrying a hoe. Xing Chong rushed towards the "experimental field" to the north - this was the name of the field where Chu Fan gave them a few crop handles, and he also erected a big sign next to it, prohibiting idlers from entering.

Old Zhao Tou didn't understand what this "experimental field" was, he only knew that his family could rely on farming to eat again, and this meal was extraordinarily sweet -- although it was divided into three acres of land. But it is not a common tenant, and he is like those female workers, he has a "salary" of 5 yuan a month, and his only task is to serve the crops on these three acres of land!

There is such a good thing in the world! Tenant farmers can still get paid!

This made Lao Zhao Tou both happy and excited, and he had already treated the land as his own child. Now I am more careful, I can't crush all the clods in the three acres of land, and sprinkle any seeds to grow lush and green.

The "experimental field" was not far from the camp, and Lao Zhao Tou soon came to this boxy field surrounded by a wooden fence.

Inside the wooden fence, two ridges divide the "experimental field" into four pieces of the same size in a cross shape, and in the center is a newly dug well for irrigation.

Taking out the key to open the wooden door of his field, Lao Zhao Tou came to the green seedlings that had grown to knee height.

Both of these crops that Childe asked them to grow were rare.

One is the tomato that Lao Zhao Tou has heard of-that is, the rich and noble people are very bored to decorate bonsai, I don't know why Gongzi planted this thing - is it possible that he also wants to decorate bonsai? But you don't need that much, do you?

The other one is even more unusual, Lao Zhao Tou doesn't say it, he hasn't even heard of it - chili!

This kind of red fruit made Lao Zhao Tou quite afraid - when he pinched the chili pepper for the first time, he was accidentally splashed with juice in his eyes, which was painful and spicy, and he shed tears for a long time!

I'm afraid this thing isn't a poison!

But whether it is to decorate bonsai or poison, since Gongzi asked him to plant it, he has to be careful to serve it - not only because of the 5 yuan of silver per month, but also because Gongzi promised them a few of them, as long as they find out the habits of the crops handed over to them, they will divide the fields!

Right! A field of their own!

God! Old Zhao Tou himself can't remember clearly, their Zhao family only had their own land when they were young!

Now his old Zhao Tou actually wants to have his own land - as long as he has land, although his son has died in Liaodong, his grandson is still there, and this generation will pass it on, and the old Zhao family will be prosperous again! How not to make him almost faint with excitement?

At this moment, Lao Zhao squatted in front of the peppers that had begun to bear fruit, carefully observing the small green fruits among the thick green leaves, and from time to time inserted his fingers into the fluffy soil to judge whether they needed to be watered.

"Old Zhaotou! Hurry up, go to the dock and get something! ”

Just as he was wandering in the world of crops, a familiar voice sounded outside the wooden fence, and Lao Zhao Tou stood up and saw that it was Chen Zhonggeng, who was responsible for helping them record the growth of the crops - the croppers were all blind, when should the crops be planted, when should they be harvested, how should the fertilizer be applied, and should they be lazy to water frequently...... Even if they knew all these questions, they could only keep them in their hearts; For this reason, Chen Shangren assigned this task to his eldest son, who teaches children in the primary school: to record the experience and experience of several crops every day.

"Mr. Chen, morning!" For scholars, Lao Zhaotou's attitude was extremely respectful--his grandson was taught by Mr. Chen--he bowed and said, "I don't know what I want the little old man to receive?" ”

"Seeds!" Chen Zhonggeng stood outside the fence and responded, "The Yang family's ship has arrived, what did it bring this time...... Oh yes, sweet potato! There is also a ...... Corn, yes, yes, that's it...... Childe told the four of you to go to the dock to collect the seeds and plant all the remaining land in the experimental field...... The three of them haven't come yet? Get! I'm going to inform them...... Hurry up and get it first! ”

As he spoke, Chen Zhonggeng had already staggered towards the camp, leaving Lao Zhao Tou in a daze in the field.

Sweet potato? Corn?

What's this strange thing? Childe is really, why do you keep growing these strange things if you don't grow food? (To be continued.) )
