Chapter 223: Xinwu Wheel and New Car (Second Update, Subscription, Monthly Pass)
On the 14th day of the lunar month, the entire Xiaqiu Village and many craftsmen moved, the boxed lunches here were sold, and the chief returned to the village with Hanhan and the children.
"Hanhan, let's work hard to make gun barrels, and now we have made fifty muskets! Oh! Inside, fifty branches. ”
After everyone rushed back, the person in charge of building the barrel reported directly to Hanhan, and then remembered that there was also a lieutenant chief.
The lieutenant expressed his understanding, yes, Han Han is the most important.
However, he was surprised by the speed, according to estimates, by the end of the year there should be more than forty flintlock pistols, and now the task is overdone.
Zhu Wentian looked around, saw that there were no outsiders, and nodded: "Stop!" It's enough, I'll prescribe medicine for you, and take care of it. ”
"Listen to the silly ones." The lieutenant said on the side.
Man who crafted the flintlock pistol: "......"
You are also our lieutenant chief, if someone else talks like this, he would have beaten you a long time ago, and he still emphasized it?
"Hanhan, no one cares about me anymore." The lieutenant complained to Hanhan.
"How is that possible? You ask them if it's okay to change their lengths? Zhu Wentian smiled.
"Captain, you will always be our good chief."
"The captain is immortal."
"It's been going on for thousands of years."
"Inside the ......"
"Get out of here, haven't you seen you in a few days, you guys have itchy skin?" The lieutenant was about to beat someone, and a group of people ran away.
"Hanhan, let's practice guns?" The people in the village, even the elderly, would fire several shots a day.
Naturally, those who went out could not fire next to the imperial city, and there was not a single gun.
"It's okay to hit a dozen, the flintlock pistol smoke is bigger, in fact, it can be improved, let's do it first! Upgrade later.
The weather in Nanjing is still not cold, otherwise I would have made skates and led everyone to skate.
His Majesty gave the place, let's use it as an ice skating rink, use pulleys, build bearings first, okay, we don't have that technology at the moment.
It's okay to stumble, this one is the same as the bamboo sunflower, you plant, it takes two years to plant it on a large scale, you don't plant, never so.
This year, let's make the bad ones first, the kids roller skate, and then gradually improve it, and its real use is transportation.
The previous universal wheels, we use wood instead, in fact, it is better to have new metal bearings. ”
Zhu Wentian has a plan, a little bit of advancement, this thing can't be in a hurry.
He actually thinks it's already good, and such scientific and technological progress in history is tortuous.
Some people only find one aspect and go to work on other things, and some people design it out, but because of politics, capital and other factors, it is over.
There are even people who have a breakthrough when they are in college, and the results are not waiting to be turned into results, so they drop out of school because they can't pay the tuition fees and engage in other things.
The progress of science has always been confusing, and when an era has passed, looking back, I find that the people at that time were really stupid and simple.
After laughing at the people at that time, they continue to face technological breakthroughs, and after a few years, those who laugh at others will also be ridiculed.
Zhu Wentian didn't have time to laugh at others, so he hurriedly built it, and then took his friends to become proficient and go over to play.
Of course, this is purposeful, not idle and boring.
'Bang Bang Bang ......' a burst of gunshots rang out, and the children quickly reloaded gunpowder and projectiles, followed by another round.
They're not playing, they're serious, it doesn't matter if they're not playing or not, they have to be fast.
Practice this first, and then practice accurately, anyway, there is no shortage of ammunition in your village.
As for why not do mock reloading? That's because it's not suitable enough for actual combat, the village has money, and the gunpowder is all mixed by itself.
Where guns are made and gunpowder and bullets are made, you can't shoot? It's just a joke.
The ten guards of the Prince's Mansion gave directions from time to time, and they took turns guarding in Xiaqiu Village, so there was naturally no shortage of shooting training.
"Hanhan, are you tired?" In the evening, when the children had eaten and ran back to their homes, they threw themselves into bed and slept happily, when the chief came to the shrine.
Zhu Wentian lives in the ancestral hall today, does not go to the mountain temple, and then paints pictures.
"I designed a revolver with a short barrel and a continuous fire that could hit close targets.
It involves the sensitivity of the primer, but it does not affect the overall launch, and the revolver does not jam, it is nothing more than a little more turn.
Then we should think about the problem of reloading and firing, and now I have designed a flintstone firing that is not very good. ”
Zhu Wentian pointed to the drawings and said that he wanted to make a revolver flintlock pistol, and it was the kind with a circlip, as for how to make the spring? Heat the wire or steel wire and wrap it!
Lieutenant: "......"
"Hanhan, I didn't understand." The chief was helpless.
"To shoot the bullet far away, there must be a problem to be solved, sealed, and there is no need for close range.
Captain, you see that the current flintlock pistol needs to be reloaded with an additional pool, that is, ignition powder.
Let's change the position of the medicine pool, and then add a position of the medicine guide behind the fixed ammunition.
Then it only takes every impact, and it will be fired once, that is, if I fill the six medicine pools in advance. By the time I launch, I can launch six times in a row.
Then I reload the medicine and the medicine in the medicine pool, and in a battle, as long as I have the money, I can equip ten of these guns.
When I have annihilated the enemy, or have almost finished fighting, I will go up with my knife and slash and slash, turn back to rest, and reload my gun. ”
Zhu Wentian told the situation of this kind of revolver, the advantage is that it is fast, and the disadvantage is that the firing range is too close.
But there are choices on the battlefield, and when everyone is in close proximity, the shorter the range of the weapon, the more popular it is.
"And like this? This is the technology we provide for the war against the Northern Yuan next year? ”
The chief listens to a rough idea, just know that the technology is powerful, and then go back and learn slowly.
You can't just see and hear this thing, you have to make it to know it.
Zhu Wentian removed this set of drawings: "Put it aside, I can't use it in the first game of Beiyuan, because it's too late to change clothes."
Let's inspect the bearings first, if it is easy to use, we can deliver it by tricycle in the future.
If you can make bearings, you can try to make chains, and gears are not a problem.
We must develop rapidly, the sun and the moon are gone, and the years are not with me. Now there is no technical theory stuck, hurry up, hurry up, take advantage of Zhu Yuanzhang, oh, Your Majesty's spirit is enough. ”
"Hanhan, why are you in such a hurry?" The lieutenant felt like he couldn't learn.
"Because many things can be done, do it well first, and then figure it out. To open up the gap with other civilizations, let's make a pulley first! ”
Zhu Wentian said, calm again, he suddenly remembered that the West has now experienced the Black Death, and economic development is not so advanced, but the adventurous spirit has always been like that.
No one has dominated the Americas yet! The local religion is strong, so take advantage of it!
Try how much money believers can earn by shining light on the patterns on the glass in a dark environment and turning them into movies.
