"Don't worry, there's a fourth. ”

This drawing is more special, it is a small part, which is required to play the role of ignition when pressing, in addition, there are several small mechanisms.

The thing in front is okay, just change the firing pin to impact, Mozi only glanced at it and understood, but the back of a few so-called safety devices, Mozi stared at it for ten minutes, it's not how difficult, Mozi looked at the parts, wanted to know its use, but couldn't figure it out.

"Mozi, these projects should be operated separately, the focus is on the bullet project team, and we must first test to find out the most suitable caliber, that is, the size. That is, it should not be too big, at least let the soldiers carry 60 rounds of ammunition, and at least ensure the power, at least more than twice the power of the current flint gun, can it be done?"

Looking at the drawings of the bullet, Mozi went through it in his mind, this kind of fully encapsulated bullet has better airtightness, and under the same charge, the effect is better than that of a flintlock pistol, if the bullet body is lengthened, the charge is doubled, and the power will naturally come up, and the warhead can also think of a way, use a better alloy, and have stronger penetration.

As if seeing what he was thinking, Renault said: "Only penetration is not enough, but also to increase the lethality, it is best to use two layers of warheads, using unused metal, when the projectile is shot into the human body, due to the effect of bodily fluids, the outer layer is deformed and bursting, and the pill rolls in the body, resulting in secondary killing." ”

Renault doesn't care what the convention is, there is no such thing in the world of Dachu, war is for the purpose of killing, no matter how immoral weapons are, what can kill people is a good weapon, talking about human rights and human nature in Dachu, it is impossible to get along with yourself.

"Well, sir, you are clever. "Mozi can be regarded as a beginner, as soon as Renault said, he suddenly realized, it turns out that the projectile can still be done like this, but the difficulty of manufacturing is another layer higher, and it is not easy to do.

"First determine the bullet, and then build the caliber of the rifle according to the bullet design. As for this, it is prepared for the future, and we will talk about it after the guns are finalized and mass-produced. Renault sighed lightly, not even a gun and bullets were guaranteed, let alone a cannon.

The last design, naturally, was intended for artillery. Now in the laboratory of the craftsman camp of the Shengong Temple, there are a variety of new metals, no alloy is needed, and the results of the God of Wealth test are already better than most alloys on the earth.

As long as there is cannon steel, in fact, the cannon is easier to manufacture than the gun, after all, it is large and the requirements for accuracy are not high. The difficulty is in the shell, you have to make it explode, and the shell that can't be exploded is still called a shell?

Impact fuses, delayed fuzes, and all kinds of safety devices must be taken into account, so as not to blow up the enemy by then, and blow yourself up first.

Time passed quickly, two days passed in a blink of an eye, Wei Wenchang and his party, with Renault came to the city of fine iron thirty miles away, three airships flew in the sky, it looked no different from the airships that General Wei had seen, this thing can be used to fight?

"Let's get started. Renault ordered, and the herald behind him waved the order flag and waved the flag, which was made by Renault when he was fine.

The other two heralds were also busy, one carrying a large and heavy walkie-talkie, and the other carrying an equally heavy silver-zinc battery pack, in pairs, depending on their luck.

"Zero one zero one, this is the ground command center, please answer if you receive it. ”

Today's weather is good, the luck of the herald is also very good, using walkie-talkie to give orders, the probability of success is only two percent, ten calls, two can succeed is good, even so, the airship troops' love for walkie-talkies, is far more than the flag, this thing is more intuitive than the flag, and it is more clear.

"Zero one received, please order. ”

"Mr. ordered, the military exercise begins, the military exercise begins!"

"Zero One understands, the exercise begins. ”

After a few words of dialogue, General Wei's eyes were about to protrude, and the sound of someone talking came from the box!

"This ......"

"Let's look at the drill first. Renault said quietly, walkie-talkie has a long way to go, although each airship is equipped with walkie-talkie as much as possible, but this thing is only used for auxiliary, usually still have to use the flag and observer to transmit commands, counting on walkie-talkie, too unreliable.

This is Renault's professional strength, so he knows very well that in a short period of time, he can't solve the problem of walkie-talkie, even if he goes all out to tackle the problem, it is impossible to really succeed without three or two years. Today's walkie-talkies are actually enlarged children's toys, and they are also defective.

The order was given, the three airships turned at the same time, several strong men were shirtless, shaking the mechanism, the huge fan blades rotated, the helmsman controlled the rudder, the huge airship slowly changed direction, no way, the airship was too big, and there was no mechanical assistance, it all relied on manpower, not to mention speed and flexibility, and it was so moved that people wanted to cry.

In this way, it still makes the airship personnel energetic, after all, unlike the previous hot air balloons, watching the sky and eating, at least it can be controlled within a certain range.

The red flag waved, and on the three airships, two of the walkie-talkies were out of order, but fortunately, everyone had long been used to it, using flags during the day and firelight at night, and they could barely get orders out.

Dozens of low-headed crossbows began to shoot, because it was a drill, Renault asked people to add gunpowder to the tail of the crossbow arrows, which were mixed with metal powder, and the crossbow arrows shot out with bright firelight, there was a bit of the meaning of dragging the light bullets.

A little firelight, driven by the crossbow arrows, shot to the ground like a meteor, deeply inserted into the ground, the three-foot-long crossbow gun, at least two feet into the ground, this is still because the ground in the desolate place, is all iron ore, extremely hard, if it is ordinary yellow earth, you can't even see the tail of the arrow, only leave a deep arrow hole.

These bowed crossbows are not individual crossbows, but are designed according to bed crossbows, with a ratchet mechanism, two strong men shaking the ratchet to wind, and the shooter is responsible for aiming.

Needless to say, the power is very strong. Wei Wenchang made up for a moment, there were only three airships in front of him, what if there were three hundred or three thousand?

The most interesting thing is that the crossbow bolts are fired down from hundreds of paces in the air, and their power is not reduced by the distance, but slightly amplified by the acceleration of gravity.

On the other hand, if the ground wants to attack the airship in the sky, it will be troublesome, the attack power of the crossbow arrow is not enough, and the same is true for the bow, unless it is a hard bow of more than six stones, it will threaten the shooter on the airship, after all, the hanging blue has a certain defensive ability, if the steel plate is installed on the hanging blue, even the bed crossbow can not be shot.

You must know that the load capacity of the airship is very large, the lowest can also carry five tons, not used for transportation, completely become a combat airship, there is no need to consider the problem of load, the hanging blue is increased, at least half of the load can be carried at least fifty soldiers at a time, you can increase the original five bowed crossbows to ten, so that the firepower is doubled.

As he was thinking, the second round of demonstrations began, this time it was a performance of the musketeers, compared to the bowed crossbow, the muskets were less powerful, they could fire faster, and they were used by individual soldiers, without the need for groups of three, so that the firepower was instantly tripled.

Wei Wenchang looked at it and nodded slightly, he was actually not optimistic about the musket, this toy shot speed is too slow, only stronger than the bed crossbow, on the battlefield, it has little effect, it can only be used in the early stage, disrupting the enemy's cavalry formation, and when the enemy's cavalry rushes forward, it is basically abolished.

In this regard, the role of the musket is not even as good as that of the bow and crossbow to shoot soldiers, the bow and crossbow can be hoisted, and the musket can only be fired flat, and it is difficult to increase the lethality by relying on the thickness of the military formation.

The military formation of this era relies on people, and the dense formation is the king, and the front is full, how can you shoot flat in the back?

But it's different to put the musketeer on the airship, you don't need to consider the enemy's rushing formation, as long as you have a stable mentality, just shoot one shot after another, and the airship will move, you can hit the enemy's charging queue, you can also hit the enemy's back row, and you can even fly directly above the enemy commander and play a decapitation action, so think about it, the musket plus the airship is still quite promising.

The red flag waved again, and the third round of martial arts exercises was about to begin, the first two rounds of martial arts exercises could only be regarded as appetizers, and the third round was a big meal, and it was also the housekeeping skill of the Shengong Temple Flying Team, which threw bombs without any technical content.

At the same time, ten lit explosive packets were dropped from each airship.

"Boom, ......boom, boom, boom" roared like thunder, projectiles splashed, gunpowder smoke rose everywhere, and column-shaped black smoke rose into the sky.

Airships and human-powered planes can't be compared, the loading capacity is hundreds of times larger, in order to increase the demonstration effect, the smallest explosives package is a hundred catties, and each airship also throws a giant bomb of five hundred catties, the sound, the smoke column, and the big crater on the ground, it is shocking, not to mention Wei Wenchang, even Renault was startled, when the number of black powder is large to a certain extent, its power is really not to be underestimated.

"This ...... Is this black powder?" Black powder Wei Wenchang naturally knew, when Renault was in Los Angeles, he gave a formula, but in that formula, Renault added materials, and the effect was definitely not as good as the genuine version.

At that time, Renault did not want to spread the black powder, so he added materials, but now it is different, there is the enemy of the Austrians, coupled with the rapid growth of the laboratory, Renault believes that in a few years, the laboratory will be able to develop better explosives.

He doesn't understand anything else, he knows nitroglycerin, it's not difficult to refine that thing, the difficult thing is how to make safe nitrocell, which needs to go through a lot of experiments, and this kind of experiment is very dangerous and will kill people.

"That's right, the previous black powder formula was not good, and it has been improved, what does General Wei think, how about such an airship unit?" asked Renault with a smile.

"Okay, good, good!" Wei Wenchang said in surprise, today's exercise opened his eyes, it turned out that this is the normal way to use the airship, everyone's thinking was forbidden before, just thinking about using it to transport, who would have thought that the airship would be used in battle, and the effect would be so good.

Linking what Renault said and what he saw in his mind, General Wei had a new strategic idea in his heart.
