Mao Geng is ready to show the musket to 6 Jiuyuan, the ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her in-laws, not to mention that she is not ugly at all! 6 Jiuyuan, as an ordnance supervisor, asked him to take a look first, which is also the proper meaning of the question. Of course, the most important thing is that 6 Jiuyuan is not as impulsive as Zhao Lu, and he must not be in a hurry to use force against Jin Bing just because he has a powerful weapon.

6 Jiuyuan and Mao Geng got into the carriage under the escort of Chi Liang and Ma Wu, and the carriage moved forward, driving quite smoothly at first, but suddenly it became bumpy. 6 Jiuyuan lifted the curtain of the window and saw that this section of the road was no longer a concrete road, but a dirt road that had only been slightly smoothed, no wonder it was so bumpy.

After a long bump, the carriage stopped, and 6 Jiuyuan got out of the car with Mao Geng.

The road ahead could no longer take carriages, a small road led to a hillside in front, the guard Chi Liang led the way in front, Ma Wu followed, and four people walked towards the hillside. Walking through the hillside, he saw a simple long shed behind the hillside, Mao Geng said that it had arrived, and 6 Jiuyuan followed into this shed.

This is a wooden structure shed, long and narrow, strange thing, only the front and rear parts are covered with bamboo cement powa, the middle is all empty, both sides are also surrounded by wooden stakes and bamboo cement powa, from the left wall to the right wall, but fifteen or sixteen meters, but the length of the front and back is very long, only afraid of more than 100 meters, the front of the past, the front of the shed behind is a mountain cliff, 6 Jiuyuan at first glance did not understand the mystery, but then look at the front of the shed placed two circles of the target, the heart a little understood, It looks like an archery range, but muskets have something to do with archery!

Anyway, it's a mysterious place, and if you don't go into the shed, you can't see what's going on inside.

It wasn't until Tan Xiaochun came to see him that 6 Jiuyuan came back to his senses from his reverie, Tan Xiaochun is said to have been doing a secret job this time, presumably the legendary musket.

Mao Geng explained to the young man next to Tan Xiaochun:

"Kang Xiaolu, bring the arquebus."

The man named Kang Xiaolu walked inside and took out a long strange object, the most conspicuous of which was the iron pipe on it, connected to a strange-shaped piece of wood.

Mao Geng took this thing, handed it to 6 Jiuyuan, and said:

"Mr. 6, this is the first musket made earlier."

6 Jiuyuan took it, touched it, and took a look, although this thing was weird, but 6 Jiuyuan had seen the shooting of the cannon before, and after thinking about it, he guessed:

"Did you shoot an iron ball from this iron pipe? This iron pipe is so small, isn't it called a small cannon? Is it called a musket? ”

Mao Geng smiled and said:

"Mr. 6 guessed right, it's called a musket. We divide it like this, and those with a caliber of less than 2o mm are called muskets. Oh, and the diameter of this hole is called the caliber. If the caliber is more than 2o mm, it is called artillery. Guns and cannons, in fact, the principle is the same. ”

"Oh, I see, I wonder how powerful it is?"

"Just try it." , Mao Gengxin said, this time I will let you Mr. 6 come to observe. Mao Geng immediately explained:

"Kang Xiaolu, fire two shots with this arquebus, let Mr. 6 take a look." ，

Kang Xiaolu got Mao Geng's instructions, so he began to get busy, first poured some gunpowder into a small iron pool on the right side of the musket, then covered the lid, then erected the barrel of the gun, poured gunpowder into the hole of the gun, and then stuffed a small iron ball about the size of the hole, and then took off a long iron bar from the side of the barrel, inserted it into the hole, and stabbed it inside. 6 Jiuyuan didn't understand why he was poking with iron bars, and Mao Geng explained that this was to make the small iron ball stick close to the dense gunpowder.

Next, Kang Xiaolu lit the fire rope with a match and clamped the fire rope to a clip.

At this point, the preparations have finally come to an end, and it can be seen that 6 Jiuyuan is a little impatient, the preparation of this musket and cannon fire is generally not too much, but it seems to be a little more cumbersome.

Kang Xiaolu picked up the gun, put the wooden support on his right shoulder, aimed the muzzle of the gun at the target in front of him, and aimed it like an arrow, and then with a movement of his fingers, he saw that the fire rope fell suddenly, and the lid of the small iron pool filled with gunpowder was opened at this time, and with a pop, a flame was raised, and then a burst of fire was heard, and a ball of fireworks rushed out of the muzzle.

Immediately after the gunshot, there was a sound of a target announcement from the other side of the target:

"First shot, off target."

Obviously, it didn't hit.

Mao Geng smiled and said:

"This kind of musket is not accurate, you can't hit anything in a hundred meters, and it's okay to do it in forty or fifty meters. Xiaochun, change to forty meters. ”

Kang Xiaolu was busy again, according to 6 Jiuyuan's opinion, this time it was more cumbersome, Mao Geng introduced, after a shot, it was necessary to clean up the gunpowder residue in the ignition pool and ignition hole, so as not to block the ignition hole.

6 Jiuyuan paid attention to the time table placed in the shed, and when Kang Xiaolu took aim again, more than forty seconds had passed, if it was on the battlefield, after the first shot was released, the second shot did not know if there was a chance to put it.

The second shot sounded as scheduled, and this time 6 Jiuyuan saw the wooden target in front of him and shook it, and the target in front reported Kang Xiaolu's results:

"Second shot, four rings."

Mao Geng pulled 6 Jiuyuan to the target, this time 6 Jiuyuan saw clearly, the target was pierced through a hole, and it was good to hit the target, but it was obviously a little off.

"Can this kill someone?"

"It's more powerful than an arrow, right?"

6 Jiuyuan nodded.

Mao Geng didn't plan to use animals to test the power of the shot, not because it was too bloody, but because he didn't want people to experience the power of the musket more intuitively so quickly, including the 6 Jiuyuan.

Standing in Mao Geng's current position, I hope that the secret of the musket will not be leaked, in short, the longer the secrecy is kept, the better.

"However, the musket is good, but the problem is that it is cumbersome to operate, and it is far less fast than a bow and arrow."

"One shot here, you can shoot a lot of arrows over there, right?"

"Exactly!"

Mao Geng smiled:

"6 Sir, don't worry, this gun is the first musket made earlier, and it is not very easy to use. You look at the improved musket and it's not too late to evaluate. ”

6 Jiuyuan said in his heart, I don't know how strong this improved musket can be, well, let's see.

Kang Xiaolu brought another musket from the inside, and in the eyes of 6 Jiuyuan, this musket was similar to the first musket.

"This is a rifle rifle, Mr. 6, wait a minute, please see how it looks like the first musket."

Kang Xiaolu took the musket, he didn't know how to move his hand, he only heard a click, and the musket suddenly broke at the end of the butt, no, it was the barrel that turned down at an angle, revealing the inner hole of the barrel with a black hole.

What is this for?

After a closer look, the end that was not folded down also revealed a small iron cylinder with a copper ring, and Kang Xiaolu immediately took out a very small thing from a leather bag, which looked like a small mushroom, the "mushroom head" was black and gray, and the "mushroom stem" was white.

Next, Kang Xiaolu seemed to tear off something, and then stuffed the mushroom-like trick into the hole of the iron cylinder, of course, the "mushroom stem" pointed inward. But it seems that the "mushroom stem" is a little thicker, and looking like that, Kang Xiaolu took a little effort when he stuffed it into the hole.

Before he could see it clearly, there was another click, Kang Xiaolu closed the turned barrel, and the whole gun became a whole again.

Immediately Kang Xiaolu broke open a mechanism on the musket, after the mechanism was cocked, it was stuck by something, and an iron pillar was exposed on the right side of the musket, and then a closer look showed that there was a small groove on the end face of the iron pillar, and there was a small hole in the center.

At this time, Kang Xiaolu took out a small red thing from another leather bag, which was not much bigger than a mung bean, well, it was the size of a soybean, but it was flat. Kang Xiaolu put the red flat "soybean" into the small groove on the small iron pillar, and after making sure that it was clamped, he picked up the musket and began to aim.

Is this okay to? Foreplay can seem a bit dizzying, but admittedly it does reload a lot faster than the first musket.

When Kang Xiaolu aimed, the wooden target located at a distance of forty meters had already been removed, and Kang Xiaolu was going to hit the target at a distance of 100 meters.

With a bang, a cloud of fireworks erupted from the muzzle of the gun, and 6 Jiuyuan thought to himself, this time it must still be off target. Mao Geng is good at everything, but he is a bit extravagant, isn't this a waste of intention! It's better to hit the 40-meter target honestly, and if you can hit a seven-ring and eight-ring, you will burn high incense. Alas! Young people, they don't know how to save, and the result can only be heard by everyone.

Unexpectedly, the target reporter next to the target in front of him reported the result:

"Third shot, five rings."

"Did you hit?" ,6 Jiuyuan still has some unbelief.

Mao Geng said in his heart, 6 Jiuyuan This is to measure the second musket by the level of the first musket before, smiled at the moment, and said:

"We'll check the target later."

Looking back, to Kang Xiaoluling:

"One more shot, another target."

So Kang Xiaolu turned the barrel again, loaded the ammunition, then clicked and closed again, skillfully pulled the mechanism open, pressed the red flat "soybean", and then raised the musket to aim. After completing this round of actions, 6 Jiuyuan paid attention to it, but it was only a second time.

Bang, another shot.

This time, the results reported by the target reporter were:

"Fourth robbery, third ring."

I only heard Kang Xiaolu muttering something, and it seemed that he was not very satisfied with his appearance.

Mao Geng was also not satisfied with Kang Xiaolu's expression today, and said in his heart, you should at least play six rings and seven rings.

However, then Mao Geng regained his calm expression, and asked 6 Jiuyuan to go and check the target. Walking to the target area, 6 Jiuyuan was shocked, the target reporter reported that it was not bad at all, it was indeed hit by the third ring and the fifth ring, and the one-inch thick wooden board was pierced, such a long distance, there was still such power, it was unimaginable.

"Maut, the power of this second musket is amazing! 6 I finally opened my eyes today. As far as the old man knows, the killing distance of an ordinary sergeant shooting an arrow is only 50 steps, and after 80 meters, it is the end of a strong crossbow, and he cannot wear a reckless. I can't imagine that your musket can penetrate such a thick plank in one fell swoop from a hundred meters away, and it can be called an immortal soldier with such accuracy. All right! Good! ”

"But that's just three rings and five rings." , Mao Geng felt that the three rings and five rings were still a little uneasy, but 6 Jiuyuan felt that it was very amazing. Mao Geng said in his heart, Mr. 6, this is going to be put in the future generations, and the recruits who have been shooting for a month will have better results than this!

"Maote, this second gun is so good, but I don't understand how this gun ignites, and what's so wonderful about the little mushroom and the little bean?"

Depend on! "Little mushrooms"! "Little Beans"! Ha ha! Old 6, you're so funny!

"That little mushroom-like, it's a bullet, a little bean, it's a smashing cannon."

After talking about the bullet smashing the cannon, he began to explain the principle:

"The capped hammer had an awl in the center, and the trigger was pulled, and the hammer was smashed into the cannon by the force of the spring. The awl has a high impact, and it can smash the cannon at once. At this time, the brim of the hammer closed the primer pool, and the explosion of the cannon smashed the hot air flow into the chamber of the bullet, and the chamber of the bullet contained sparks. The spark passes through the small hole on the side of the bullet, igniting the gunpowder in the bullet, and the gunpowder explodes, pushing the wooden stopper in the bullet and the mini lead bullet in the front of the bullet high forward, which is the principle of this gun. ”

Mao Geng was still afraid that 6 Jiuyuan would not understand, and added:

"Before the bullet is loaded into the chamber, the plastic seal must be removed to reveal a small hole, through which a little spark can ignite the gunpowder in the bullet."

"Bullets? Smashing cannons? ”

6 Nine abysses are full of stars, and I don't know why.

Mao Geng said in his heart, dare to love me, this is playing the piano to the cow!

Speaking of which, this second gun is Mao Geng's proud work. Mao Geng thinks that this gun is much more advanced than the flint gun in history, and it is also Mao's original, looking at the history of later generations, it is also unique.

You must know that Mao Geng grew up in the 70s playing match guns and smashing cannons.

The seventies were an era of scarcity of toys, but at that time, teenagers used bicycle chains and bicycle ring nuts to make homemade match guns, inserted a match in the match gun bent into wire, pulled the trigger, and the firing pin hit the match head, bang, the match head exploded, and the match stalk could fly out three or four meters in the crisp explosion.

Well, in addition to playing with match guns, it is to play with smashing guns, there are many smashing guns on a cardboard package, just like the later blister packaging medicine packaging, tear off a smashing cannon, smash it with a hammer or stone, and the smashing cannon will explode with a bang. Later, there were no more smashed guns on the market, but the memory of smashed guns was deeply imprinted in Mao Geng's heart.

Understanding the principle of matchsticks and smashing cannons, it is not difficult to solve the problem of ignition of muskets. Matches can be blown off, and hitting a hammer to start a fire is a piece of cake. So, Mao Geng understood the smashing cannon musket. Mao Geng's smashing cannon, there is glass sand inside, red phosphorus, stibnite particles, granular gunpowder, etc., with a layer of wax paper on the outside, it's as simple as that! It is nothing more than the principle of friction fire.

In addition to the design of smashing the cannon jet ignition, Mao Geng also used many design concepts on this gun. For example, the principle of loading a rifled shotgun, which is used in Olympic shooting competitions to open and close the chamber with a hinged structure. For example, a mini bullet with a groove and a wooden plug can automatically seal the gas and ensure the thrust of the gunpowder explosion.

The best thing about this gun is that this gun has a fixed bullet steel sleeve, which can even be considered an integral part of the bullet.

The bullet is a paper shell, and the paper meets the requirements for flammability. The bullets in the paper shell were wrapped in gunpowder, the front end was glued to the cork, and there were Minnie bullets on the wooden race, yes, it looked like small mushrooms. When the bullet is stuffed into the bullet steel sleeve, it must be interference fitting, so that the wooden plug can be clamped in the bullet steel sleeve, and then the barrel is closed, and the barrel and the bullet steel sleeve fit together, and a brass ring on the bullet steel sleeve forms a seal to ensure that there is no air leakage.

Mao Geng explained for a long time, and 6 Jiuyuan finally understood a little, but in general, he still seemed to understand.

At the end, Mao Geng made a summary that made 6 Jiuyuankou dumbfounded:

"This gun still has a fly in the ointment, and it needs to be improved and changed to a firing needle type, so that it can hit nine rings and ten rings."

If you use an axial pin strike, the force is much better than that of a hammer, and the shooting accuracy is believed to be improved by a grade, Mao Geng thought.

6 Jiuyuan heart said, oh my God! This musket is already very good, and it needs to be improved! What else can it be!
