Chapter Fifty-Six: The Mini Gun
The night passed quickly, and after breakfast, Wang Feng left Sheng Xuanhuai a mixed science test paper roughly equivalent to the junior high school level and left, he wanted to hurry up and teach Lu Dayou and others to make mines.
Songjiang is a small city, with about 3,000 residents, but the streets are particularly deserted in the early morning, and most of the people are afraid to go out at home, after all, what the Taiping Army did in Nanjing has long been spread, and it is a raid on the house, and it is a separate camp for men and women, whether rich or poor, everyone tightens their hearts and says something that they don't like, and they don't sleep well this night.
And today's Hong Xuanjiao, after a thorough scrubbing last night, restored her original beautiful face, white skin, bright lips, extremely bright and moving, because the weather is getting hotter and hotter, the iconic cloth hat of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is not brought, let a black hair casually half pulled on the fragrant shoulder, it looks even more charming and coquettish, although she did not deliberately apply spices, but the whole body was wrapped in a layer of faint women's natural body fragrance, making Wang Feng get closer and closer to her.
"Hey~~" Riding on the horse, Wang Feng familiarly pressed his hand on Hong Xuanjiao's shoulder, and sighed while gently pinching it: "Sister Xuanjiao, look at it, this is the Taiping Army, the people are like avoiding snakes and scorpions, Songjiang is the first city we occupy, we will use Songjiang as a pen to www.biquge.info development and growth, but we must not be like Nanjing, we should immediately issue a notice to reassure the people, abolish the system of separate camps for men and women and the holy treasury, and let the people feel at ease." ”
To be honest, Wang Feng's massage technique is very old-fashioned, and the bursts of crispy numbness make Hong Xuanjiao very comfortable, and she also has a considerable immunity to Wang Feng's pervasive small movements, but this is on the street, although there is no one on the street, there are subordinates behind her!
"Smack!" Hong Xuanjiao slapped Wang Feng's hand away, blushed slightly and said, "I agree to cancel these two systems, but it is just passed on to the Heavenly King and the Eastern King, will they blame?" After all, the separate camp for men and women and the sacred treasury system are edicts issued by the king of the east himself, and we are still a member of the Taiping army, there is no need to be too blatant about some things, if you implement it secretly, why bother to issue a notice to tell the truth? ”
Wang Feng praised his fingers: "Sister Xuanjiao is still thoughtful, you send female soldiers to explain door-to-door, with a gentle attitude, women are always better than men, and tell them that our Taiping Army implements free education for young people, regardless of men and women, anyone who wants to learn can come, by the way, and then count the craftsmen in the city, I may be able to use it, and the others will not be changed for the time being except for tax exemption for one year, and we will talk about it when we stand firm." ”
Hong Xuanjiao nodded: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away!" So saying, he turned his horse's head and ran back.
Without Hong Xuanjiao by his side, Wang Feng also took his heart, galloped to the barracks, and the hand-in-hand professor made mines, as soon as people were busy, time passed quickly, and before they knew it, it was already evening, in the rumbling explosion, a total of more than 50 basic mines were made, this whole day, in addition to the obvious increase in the number of boats on the river, the Qing army did not move, Wang Feng did not go out of the city to relieve the siege of the Little Knife Society, it seems that the two sides have reached a tacit understanding, but everyone understands that this is nothing more than the eve of the storm.
And Hong Xuanjiao's propaganda did not achieve the expected effect, the people only promised, even claiming that it was, fear was greater than gratitude, as for free education, no one signed up!
When Hong Xuanjiao found Wang Feng, Wang Feng was holding a flintlock pistol made in Britain in a daze.
"It's really infuriating, the people don't appreciate it at all" Hong Xuanjiao sat next to Wang Feng and began to complain.
Wang Feng was distracted and continued to be in a daze.
"Are you listening to me? Put the gun down! Hong Xuanjiao suddenly became angry, and snatched the gun in Wang Feng's hand!
Wang Feng said helplessly: "Sister Xuanjiao, be gentle as a woman, do you understand?" You should say, sir, the slave is talking to you, you should listen to the slave first, okay! ”
Wang Feng said, and cocked his orchid finger, "Vomit~~" Hong Xuanjiao's chest and abdomen immediately churned violently, and he turned his face to the side and retched!
After a while, he turned his head and gasped: "Wang Feng, you are deliberately disgusting me, you want a gentle woman, that!" There are many in the kiln, or you go to the Qing court and become a master to marry a dozen concubines, all of them are gentle! ”
"Hey~~" Wang Feng smiled: "Sister Xuanjiao, I'm joking with you, in fact, it's normal for the people to react indifferently, Liu Lichuan announced tax exemption in Shanghai for three years, rebuilt the Ming Dynasty, and proclaimed himself marshal, the momentum is not immense, but how many Shanghainese support him? Our situation is the same, after all, no one knows how long we can stay in Songjiang, if the army is defeated, who is not worried about the liquidation of the Qing court? Therefore, only a few great victories can strengthen the people's confidence in us, and it is useless to be anxious now, do you say? ”
Hong Xuanjiao's face softened a little, lowered her head and played with the rifle in her hand, and couldn't help but praise: "Wang Feng, it is worthy of being produced in England, the barrel is smooth and shiny, the body is compact and strong, and it is more than twice as strong as the gun of the Qing court!" ”
"Huh~~" Wang Feng smiled disdainfully: "This is all the rags eliminated by the British, now the European powers have begun to install Minnie guns on a large scale, and the cost of modifying flintlock pistols is not lower than that of mechanized mass production, but it is a pity to throw it away, it is better to sell it to the Qing Dynasty, which can not only be used for waste, but also cheat some silver, why not?" ”
"What's a Minnie gun?" Hong Xuanjiao hurriedly asked.
Even Sheng Xuanhuai, who was biting the brush and was writing a short essay of two hundred English words according to Wang Feng's request, cast his curious eyes on him.
Wang Feng explained the ins and outs of the Minnie gun, and at the end, he added: "The effective range of the Minnie gun can reach one hundred and fifty zhang, and at this distance, the trained sharpshooter can accurately hit the target, which is far from being comparable to the flintlock gun, but it also has flaws, it can only use very soft lead to make bullets, the bullet is soft, and it will be deformed immediately when it hits the target, and the penetration is not as good as the steel balls used in the Suifu gun. The requirement of firearms for propellant is to burn slowly, so that the warhead can be evenly accelerated in the chamber for a long time and increase the initial velocity of discharge! ”
This can confuse Hong Xuanjiao and Sheng Xuanhuai, Sheng Xuanhuai couldn't help asking: "What is fast-burning gunpowder?" ”
Wang Feng patiently explained: "The burning speed of gunpowder is related to the amount of charcoal, when the charcoal content reaches 15 percent, the burning speed is the fastest, what I find difficult to choose now is that I have a design scheme for a rear-loading rifled gun, which has all the advantages of a mini gun, and the rate of fire is fast, and the bullet penetration is stronger, that is, at our current level, I am afraid it will be more difficult to manufacture, come, you all help me to sum up, is it better to develop a mini gun first, or a person in place, concentrate on making a breech-loading rifled gun that is ahead of the Western powers?" ”
