Chapter 83: Take the Fire Gun and Test It!
After washing all the pigs and sheep, the family came to the old tree in the village.
They cooperated to build two fire pit racks and pile up the wood and hay that the villagers had picked up.
Zuo Liangyu, who was bloody in killing sheep and pigs, squatted down at this time, and used the cottage Zippo that Zhao Xiong rewarded him, and set the hay on fire with a ding.
The hay is put into the shelf of the fire pit, maybe the weather is dry, maybe there is some wind, and the dead branches in the shelf of the fire pit will immediately get up.
At this time, everyone sat around the shelf of the fire pit.
On the left hand shelf is a roasted sheep, and on the right is a roasted pig.
The people in the village sat on the left-hand side, and Zhao Xiong sat on the right-hand side with his people.
Everyone in the village stared at the pig roasting back and forth, and Zhao Xiong couldn't help but swallow when he saw that many people were saliva.
In addition, Zuo Liangyu moved a huge iron pot from the ox cart, chopped the pigs and sheep into the water, and then put them in the pot with a whole head, added spice packets, and covered the lid and waited for the water to boil.
The meat over there is not well roasted, and the fresh water is almost out of the oven.
He and a few family members lifted the lid of the pot, and the thick aroma attracted countless people to look here.
The weather is cold and there are no green dishes.
Wang Xiaoqi's wife can only take the daughter-in-law in the village to pull wild vegetables all over the world, and throw them in the pot after coming back to clean them.
Zhao Xiong, who was sitting in the C position under the big tree, was not interested in barbecue, so he put a bowl of pig in the water, added a little boiled wild vegetables, and ate it quickly.
What is happiness, a man's happiness can be done with a bowl of pigs!
The warm bonfire barbecue festival is over, and the rich smell of barbecue in the village cannot be dispersed for a long time.
Zhao Xiong and others stayed in the newly raised courtyard of the village chief Wang Xiaoqi.
The family set up a huge tent found in three spaces in the courtyard, ready to freshen up and sleep.
Wang Xiaoqi, the head of the village, led a few of the best craftsmen to assemble the Victory Type 1 firecracker in the blacksmith shop all night.
In the next three days, Zhao Xiong organized the villagers to clean up a piece of the former barracks in the abandoned Acropolis, so that Liu Sheng and others could live here in the future.
He planned to officially renovate the Acropolis after the New Year and turn it into his own private domain.
Zhao Xiong was not idle when the fire gun was assembled.
He took out the detailed structural diagram of the revolver in the space, and together with Wang Tiezhu, he created a delicate revolver.
This delicate revolver firebolt, which has a cylinder in the middle and six holes around the central axis, is both a nest and a chamber.
When firing, the recoil pressure at the bottom of the cavity is used to rotate the cylinder so that the next bullet is aligned with the barrel and at the same time automatically unshelled.
In the past, Wang Tiezhu created a fire cap runner fire gun that was circulated in the south, and this kind of wheel fire gun has a complex structure and is prone to failure.
Now the short-fire gun has changed Wang Tiezhu's short-fire gun when it fires, it leaks, is dazzling, and cannot be hit far, so that Wang Tiezhu's admired five-body throw to the ground.
In the past, Wang Xiaoqi and his team made firecrackers, and after the wrought iron used to make the guns was red, they struck it on a steel core to form an iron pipe.
After cooling, wrap several layers, tap finely, into two iron pipes, one large and one small, to pack small and large.
Make the two tightly bonded, and after reaching a certain thickness, the steel core is pulled out, and a section of the gun pipe is completed.
After making several sections of pipes, they are welded together, and only skilled craftsmen can do this.
It's like the saying of modern people from level 1 to level 8, master, it is not easy to blow up and bore when welded!
After the gun tube is done, it is necessary to drill out the gun boring with a steel cone to break out the crosshair.
In the past, it could take up to a month, and after that, the boring was scraped clean with an iron file, and then various kinds of assembly were carried out.
Now with seamless steel pipes, most of the time was saved and the other parts of the fire gun were made two days ago.
I came here today to assemble it, and the Victory Type 1 firearm was assembled in a few hours.
On the third day, the wind blew all night, and in the early morning the wind stopped, and on the lake next to the village, a red sun slowly rose from the skyline, reflecting the sky and the quiet lake.
A group of people in the Acropolis University Yard are bathed in the morning sun running and exercising, and the person at the head is our protagonist Zhao Xiong.
At this moment, Zhao Xiong, who had stopped, was carrying a brand-new black and shiny Victory Type 1 in his hand.
There are crosshairs in front and back of the straight length of the gun tube, and the back of the gun is sealed with bolts, and the wooden tray is slightly bent downward.
He weighed it, and it looked like it was about eight or nine pounds.
In the past, the gun made by the imperial court had a handle that was too small, about the same size as the handle of the Pu knife, and if you shot like this, it would be difficult to maintain stability, and the accuracy must be bad.
The Victory I was modeled after the last front-loading rifle.
However, the long barrel also made the process of loading lead and compacting gunpowder relatively cumbersome.
And of his ten muskets, only one was converted into a flintlock pistol, because there was too late, and the others were original arquebuses.
Zhao Xiong sighed in his heart that the flintlock gun chamber is a delicate job, and it seems that he has his own drawings, and the production efficiency at this time is still urgent!
It is estimated that a complete set of tool lathes must be prepared to improve production efficiency.
Zhao Xiong looked over and over here.
The flintlock in his hand made Wang Xiaoqi and the others who were assembled extremely nervous, and they didn't dare to take a breath.
This can involve the purchase and sale of a tael of silver and a handful of assembly fees!
Even they relied on this order for the Chinese New Year this year.
Zhao Xiong's expression was obviously not very satisfied.
But after thinking about it, he still can't see the front loading gun.
Wang Xiaoqi said: "The Shengli type fire gun is more than three feet long, weighing 8 catties and 2 taels, which is 1/5 heavier than the usual fire gun.
It can hold three coins of lead, and four coins of charge .......
It's a little heavier, but I swear that under 200 shots, there will be absolutely no explosives. ”
Zhao Xiong played with it for a long time, and the appearance of the Shengli Type 1 Fire Gun was still good: "Li Ge Liu Sheng, you lead the Jiading team, you can test shoot the Fire Gun!" ”
So the family quickly found the dilapidated door and erected a target on the east side of the school yard near the bottom of the cliff.
They were, 30 steps away, 50 steps away, and 80 steps away, and took a batch of lead bullet gunpowder from the ox cart one by one and put it on the edge of the school field.
There are more than 20 family members, and the elderly and experienced family members have been following Zuo Liangyu to explore the post road after the mob looted in the past few days.
The rest followed Zhao Xiong to the school yard and prepared to test the gun.
Liu Sheng was not very skilled in taking out the gunpowder from the gunpowder canister, he was not a professional soldier after all, after estimating the amount.
Looking at Li Ge's appearance, he learned to operate the Victory Type 1 Firecracker.
At this time, Li Ge loaded the gunpowder into the gun and used it in a barrel. Then another piece of lead was taken out, which was still fed in with a throughbar.
Then open the fire door behind the gun, pour some gunpowder into it, and finally take out the fire rope and put it into the faucet, and light the fire rope.
Everyone is far away from him, and it is obvious that the "good name" of the Dakang Dynasty's fire gun is easy to explode.
