Chapter 146: Fixed Bullets
When I heard Brother Zheng, I misunderstood what I meant.
Win Changsheng naturally shook his head again and again.
Then, he opened his mouth to explain to Brother Zheng.
"The father misunderstood Erchen's thoughts, and Erchen planned to install a spike on top of this gun, so that this bird gun would not become a spear?"
"This?"
When Brother Zheng heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Definitely.
This is installed after a spike.
This bird can be used as a spear.
It's okay, from a ranged weapon to a melee weapon.
Thinking of this, Brother Zheng slapped his thigh, and then praised Ying Changsheng.
"You kid, you can always come up with some new things, I think it's okay, this trick is completely okay, if that's the case, Wu Shilu, the case of your caravan, there is probably no problem, right?"
"Back to Your Majesty, there is no problem!"
Wu Shilu immediately said again and again.
With the bird gun, their caravan has the ability to protect itself.
At that time, in the face of it, those Huns on the grassland will also have the advantage of fighting back.
A small group of Huns couldn't help them at all.
And, the loud sound of the bird's gun.
Better yet, you can intimidate the Huns.
Let them be afraid, let them be afraid.
In such a situation.
No more, don't worry, the caravan is safe.
However, the problem of safety was solved by the bird gun, but Wu Shilu was still a little worried Chaoying Changsheng asked.
"Nineteen princes, this bird gun, I don't know how much the output is, can you provide enough bird guns to the minister's caravan?"
"Besides, what is this bird gun used to emit, this black powder, can you provide it to the minister?"
"Absolutely!"
Win Changsheng said without thinking.
Black powder, of course, is to be kept secret.
However, this thing can't actually be kept secret - it's too simple.
The ingredients are nothing more than saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal powder.
As long as you study it carefully, sooner or later you will find out what it is ingress in.
Of course, even if the secret is leaked, Win Changsheng is not afraid.
Because, he has more powerful things than black powder.
Moreover, even the Huns, knowing the formula of black powder, Ying Changsheng did not think that the Huns could make gunpowder.
Well, this is not to win Changsheng, look down on them.
Rather, it was because the Huns simply lacked raw materials to make gunpowder.
Sensei, black powder is nothing more than those three things.
However, these three things are not available everywhere.
Charcoal powder is the best solution.
And saltpeter and sulfur, it's not so easy.
On the Huns' side, these things are not produced at all.
And, even if they had enough minerals there, they wouldn't be able to find them.
Therefore, even if they got the formula, the Huns could not make gunpowder.
I saw that Win Changsheng was going to Wu Shi.
"The output of the bird's gun, don't worry, this thing is not difficult to make, how much do you want, how much, as for gunpowder? This thing will be given to you, and besides, my son will send someone to teach you the people in the caravan to use the bird gun! ”
That's all that is said and done.
Just as Ying Changsheng continued to think about it, wondering if there was any way to increase the rate of fire of the bird's gun, Brother Zheng on the side suddenly opened his mouth and said to him.
"Changsheng, I ask you, how long does it take for this bird to make a shot?"
"Back to my father, if the craftsman is good, he can make several branches in about a month......
"What? So fast? ”
Hearing this, Brother Zheng couldn't help but exclaim.
"This is quite slow, if we can use water power to drill the pipe, then, the production speed is faster, this bird gun is not too high-tech, the most difficult thing is to drill the pipe!"
Ying Changsheng smiled, and said to Brother Zheng.
And to win the government, thoughtfully.
He continued to ask.
"And how much does this bird cost?"
"Very little, nothing more than using some steel, some time, and some wood to make a wooden tray, anyway, the cost is definitely lower than a bow and arrow!"
Well, the cost of a bird's gun, of course, cannot be higher than that of a bow and arrow.
Bows and arrows need to be made of horns.
Horns are not easy to get.
A cow, for the rest of its life, is only a pair of horns.
A cow is just a bow to make.
It's hard to think about the cost!
Hearing this, Ying Zheng thought a little, and he opened his mouth and said.
"That's it, I plan to prepare a batch of these bird guns in the army, you go back, tell the craftsmen below Shaofu about this production method, let them build it, build a 10,000-pole handle, and try to equip it in the army first......"
"No!"
Ying Changsheng took over Brother Zheng's order.
He looked thoughtfully at the gunpowder and the buckshot, as if he was thinking about something.
Well, Ying Changsheng was thinking about whether there was any way to increase the rate of fire of the firearm.
After thinking about it for a while, he really came up with a solution.
Of course, this method could not have been invented by Win Changsheng.
In fact, he was derived from a technology that he later saw.
This technology is called a cartridge cartridge.
Well, speaking of which, this technology is very simple.
Same with bayonets.
It's all things that can be made by thinking about it.
It is nothing more than that the gunpowder and lead bullets needed are put into a paper shell when the bird gun is launched at one time, and the paper shell is directly taken out directly, and then the package above is bitten open, and the gunpowder inside is poured into the bird gun, and then the paper with lead bullets is stabbed into the gun tube with a whole strip.
It's not a complicated technology.
It's simply very.
After thinking of this method, Ying Changsheng immediately realized that this was a great weapon to increase the rate of fire of the bird's gun, and he said to Brother Zheng in front of him, as well as Wu Shilu.
"Father, the son has come up with a way, you can rely on this method to increase the rate of fire of the bird!"
"Oh? Tell me about it? ”
When Brother Zheng heard this, his eyes lit up in an instant, and then he hurriedly asked.
Speaking of which, Brother Zheng still likes the bird gun.
Because, his power is okay, and the range is also quite good.
Moreover, the requirements for users are not as demanding as those of archers.
Absolutely, everyone has a bird's shot.
The only drawback is the rate of fire, and when he heard his son say that there was a way to solve the problem of the rate of fire of the bird, Brother Zheng couldn't help but be a little happy.
And Win Changsheng directly ordered the eunuchs on the side.
Let them, go get some paper.
Immediately, in the puzzled eyes of Brother Zheng and Wu Shilu.
With paper, a few custom-made paper-shell bullets were made on the spot, and then, I saw Win Changsheng, holding a bird's gun, and began to face the target in the distance, demonstrating to Brother Zheng how to use this kind of fixed-size paper-shell bullets!
