This kind of bayonet is put on the muzzle of the gun, and after it is fastened with the tenon, it will not fall off. Of course, this snap-on bayonet has undergone several improvements, the specifics are not listed.

Then it was in the Qianlong period that the tapered bayonet began to be used in the next stage, and the three-edged spur also appeared in this period.

Wang Hongyu overtook in a direct corner, jumped over the bayonet that could not shoot when the muzzle of the gun was plugged, and jumped over the bayonet that was put on the barrel of the gun and could easily slip off or insert into the enemy's ground and could not be pulled out.

One step to achieve the European level of the Qianlong period.

Of course, the Qing Dynasty during the Qianlong period did not even have the knives of the Zhejiang soldiers, so the green battalion mainly used the configuration of bird guns and waist knives.

Seventy percent of the entire army was equipped with very limited bird guns, and the long-range shots were full of smoke, and the melee battle was immediately crushed.

Then he held a single knife that required a strong physique and arm strength, but each soldier was as thin as a hemp pole.

Such a Han army can only be a toy of the Eight Banners.

This is the good calculation of the Qing Dynasty, but it is a pity that the Eight Banners collapsed faster......

Wang Hongyu's combination of flintlock pistol, tissue paper bullet, three-edged bayonet and grenade surpassed Europe a hundred years later and beat the weak Qing Dynasty 200 years later.

Together with Bi Maokang, he immediately expanded the scale of production in Yunyang.

Although there were no steam engines and machinery, the factory craft was sufficient to mass-produce flintlock pistols.

The manufacture of the barrel and body of the gun itself is not much improved with the arquebus, and the trigger, flint and the new bullet yellow need to be made by ingenious craftsmen.

Oil-impregnated tissue paper wrapping ammunition is easier to produce. The Hunhe Army itself was using cardboard-wrapped ammunition, and this time it expanded its ammunition workshop, wrapped it in rice paper and rationed gunpowder, and soaked it with a small amount of peanuts and sesame oil to make this kind of charge that reloads faster and burns more fully.

At this time, the ammunition and medicine were still loaded separately, and Wang Hongyu certainly knew that they would be combined in the future.

Since there are tissue paper-wrapped bullets that can be put directly into the barrel without bite-opening, can you tie round bullets and paper-wrapped bullets together and put them into the barrel?

Of course~

Just try it, Wang Hongyu, Bi Maokang, and Li Tiezhu made a flat tissue paper bullet, and then put a lead bullet of the same size, and then covered it with a layer of thin rice paper to wrap the lead bullet and the paper bullet together.

They were loaded into the Lumi guns and then mounted on the stones for test firing. This lumie is an experimental specimen that can be fired with an arquebus fuse without pulling the trigger, like setting off a firecracker.

Hiss~

"Bang!"

Muskets fired normally.

Bi Maokang was overjoyed, but he was happy to see that Wang Hongyu and Li Tiezhu were not standing there at all, but one went to check the shooting point, and the other went to check the residue left in the barrel.

"The shooting point is accurate, and the rice paper does not affect the shot of the lead bullet!"

"There's a lot of ash left! Increases the cleanup time before the second reload! ”

Hearing the results of their evaluations, Bi Maokang knew that there was still a lot of experimentation and improvement, and that invention really wasn't something that could be done overnight.

The trio tried ten more times and could draw conclusions.

Wrapping it in rice paper can indeed speed up the reload speed and will not affect the ejection of lead bullets, but because the tail of the ammunition does not burn necessarily the whole but a little, the wrapped layer of rice paper will have a certain amount of ash residue.

Wang Hongyu knew that the oxygen in the barrel of the gun was limited, and it was almost the limit to be able to burn the thin rice paper wrapped in paper, and no matter how much more rice paper could be burned, it would not be burned out.

Now there are two things to do.

The first is a large number of test firings, to see how fast the non-commissioned officers can reload and how slow it will be to clean the barrel.

Then think about how to reduce the amount of rice paper and reload the ammunition in one piece. Think about it and experiment it again.

This process required brainstorming and a large number of experiments, so Li Tiezhu and Zhang Mingshi carried it out, and Hunhe Jun discussed the experiment for a month to explore a suitable plan.

I believe that soon, the first bullets in history will be born, although it is a paper lake, but the effect is by no means a paper tiger.

……

When Wang Hongyu vigorously promoted the birth of bullets and bayonets in Yunyang, Zhu Youxiao, the emperor of the Apocalypse, also made a mass-produced bicycle.

According to Wang Hongyu's Erliu bicycle front and rear elevations, left and right elevations, plus sketches drawn with three-dimensional drawings, there are also detailed sample drawings.

For example, the trunk tripod should be made of thin-walled steel pipes, which do not yet have the production capacity and can only be replaced by iron-wood combinations.

The fork and pedal axle sleeve must be made of rotating shafts, the axle sleeve is made of cast iron, and the axle sleeve has an interface connecting the inclined beam, which is fixed with screws. Only the girders of the two tripods are hardwood, and the others are iron rods.

The fork is welded from wrought iron; The faucet is just an iron rod with a rubber handle; The rim is not 32 spokes, but eight iron rods welded with bushings and rims.

The finest is the iron crankset and iron chain, which is processed by many delicate artists with lathes according to standard sizes, the chain is relatively thick, but practical, and it will never be pulled off without a few hundred catties of strength.

Because the inflatable inner tube and air valve are not well solved at present, they simply use solid rubber rings on the rim, which saves a lot of trouble, and the cost is slightly lower than that of fine inner and outer tubes.

The seat was simply made of willow wood, which became a carpentry job, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse easily designed a light and practical seat.

Brakes, brackets, and foot pedals are all made of iron with wood, rubber, and wire.

At this time, the steel bar has been manufactured by Wang Hongyu and Li Tiezhu, among which the fine products can be drawn into iron wire, in fact, it is drawn after heating to a little temperature, and the strength of the steel bar has not yet met the conditions for cold drawing, and iron nails can also be made with iron wire.

Because adults are much shorter than they are now at this time, Wang Hongyu's bicycle size for Tianqi is given according to the size data of 26 bicycles, and most people on 28 bicycles can't reach the pedals and can't get up.

Because there is no thin-walled steel pipe, the weight of the 26 bicycle is 5 pounds heavier than the 80 pounds of the 28 bicycle in later generations.

Apocalypse's IQ is indeed very high, a bicycle involves a lot of knowledge, Zhu Youxiao can be said to be a genius is not too much at all, he was only proficient in carpentry, and he had no research on ironware at all, and he had no basic knowledge.

In just a few months, Zhu Youxiao read many books on the production of various vehicles, and also went to Wang Hongyu and Wei Zhongxian's watch workshop to visit and learn the principle of gear force transmission.

He also went to the Yongding River to observe the working principle of the pedal waterwheel, found the water mill on the grinding surface to study the power conversion structure, and even studied the use of the grinding mill to lift the sluice and city gate.

Zhu Youxiao is good at using his brain, Wang Hongyu suggested that he design a bicycle, this two-wheeled structure is a bit complicated, if you build a three-wheeled bicycle first, it will be easier to build a two-wheeled bicycle in the next step.

He had already learned to draw three views, sketching his ideas into a three-dimensional diagram and then coloring them. Draw the structural plan first, and then draw the elevation, then the elevation.

While building, I sighed, the bicycle invented by Dingyuan Hou is really amazing.
