When Liang Shuopeng, the minister of scientific research, forced the two deputy ministers to work and strive to realize his automated production as soon as possible. Liang Shuopeng himself was not idle. He's thinking about something new, an important part of the rifle's upgrading, and that's the firing pin.

Speaking of firing pins, it was quite important in the development of rifles. For example, the flintlock pistol made by Liang Shuopeng today is actually the original paper-wrapped gunpowder with projectiles in it.

Such a form not only affects the shooting speed, but also easily causes potential safety hazards. If the fireball technique on the opposite side just hits the soldier's ammunition bag, the urine of the paper-wrapped gunpowder will burn the soldier into a big fireball on the spot.

One of the important reasons why Tyr's set of jumping fireballs was able to harvest seven or eight lives was that the ammunition pack on the soldier's body was ignited.

Moreover, in addition to the safety issue, there is also an expiration date issue for paper-wrapped gunpowder. The current People's Salvation Army is all taking the initiative. Whether it's fighting robbers or fighting security groups, it's the time to choose when you're fine.

If it rains on a cloudy day, even if it is a flintlock pistol, the ammunition is gunpowder wrapped in paper. Once the ammunition gets wet during the loading process, the ammunition is useless.

Liang Shuopeng had asked someone before, and the world before him was actually similar in climate. It's April now, and summer is about to begin. Summers tend to be rainy, and enemies won't wait until you're ready to attack.

Now that the People's Salvation Army has captured the town of Cair, it is equivalent to firing the first shot of resistance. And the next battle will only get tougher. Therefore, what the People's Salvation Army urgently needs now is a rifle that can guarantee stable firing.

Liang Shuopeng thought about it and felt that only a firing pin could do this.

First, the firing pin is based on the primer of the impact bullet, then the explosion is generated, and finally the bullet is fired. When the firing pin appears, you can make a bullet with a primer. In the future, there was no longer any need to make paper-wrapped gunpowder projectiles by hand.

It's just that the steel required for the firing pin is extremely demanding. No, Liang Shuopeng found Robin again: "I said Robin, can you do me a favor?" ”

Robin said helplessly: "I said, you won't let me help you renovate the blast furnace or something, right?" I'm telling you, I'm really confused about that thing, I don't know anything about it. ”

Liang Shuopeng smiled and said, "It's okay, it's not a blast furnace." The one I made last time is fine, and the iron is pretty good. ”

Robin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's fine." No, then what are you looking for me? ”

Liang Shuopeng smiled again: "I was looking for you to build me a steelmaking furnace, this is the drawing I came up with." ”

As he spoke, he handed over the thick pile of drawings in his hand, and Robin's scalp was numb when he saw it, and then Liang Shuopeng still chattered: "I didn't have much contact with this thing before, but I knew some steelmaking processes roughly, and I made a certain simplified design according to the existing conditions." You see, you can understand it, if it works, I want to start work today. ”

When Robin heard this, he was so angry that he wanted to beat him, and he knew that he was the head of the Construction Department of the Military Commission, so he started beating people again, so that others could see that the impact was not good, so he had to suppress his anger and said: "You can ask for another master, I don't understand." ”

He ran away as if he were running away.

But Liang Shuopeng didn't give up, and kept chasing behind: "Hey, don't run." I'm telling you, Robin, if you don't solve this thing for me today, we'll all have to let the kingdom die sooner or later. ”

Robin heard what he said, but he stopped, then looked at him suspiciously, and said, "Really? You have this, round-headed, brainy, such a pot-like thing, and you can fight against the kingdom? We're all about technology, so you can't talk nonsense. ”

Liang Shuopeng pushed his eyes and pretended to be mysterious: "Yes." ”

Robin really had no choice but to agree to Liang Shuopeng's request, but he looked at the complicated drawings and said that this thing could not be released every ten days and half a month.

So, Liang Shuopeng started again, using the traditional steel-making method of the blacksmith shop to make a batch of steel that was a little more like words, and then used his own lathe to start the firing pin.

At this moment, how much he was looking forward to the steelmaking furnace and motor, Robin, Cheng Shaowei and Hou sent them, and they could quickly get it for him. He was looking forward to the rapid upgrading of the weapons of the People's Salvation Army, so that they could better guard against the enemy.

It's just one thing that puzzles him, including the entire People's Salvation Army, is that until now, not a single enemy has come to the door. Hussein province did not react.

Actually, this matter is also very easy to explain. In the eyes of the higher-ups, it would be ridiculous to say that ordinary people had eliminated Tyr, such a high-level magician, but there was no sound, and Tyr had not been able to escape back.

In the eyes of the nobles of Hussein at this time, people who do not know magic are like a group of monkeys, and even if they give them knives and guns, they have to rush in front of them. As a magician, you can cast your magic gracefully with your staff, and then solve them one by one.

Moreover, even with bows and crossbows, these nobles knew that the kingdom had long been banned weapons. The magician had nothing to fear. They can hide behind many soldiers, and they will always be exhausted by the arrows, but the magicians communicate with the natural world through their staffs, and as long as they still have magic power, they can unleash much more magic than they can shoot arrows.

I'm tired, I don't have enough magic, and I have alchemist's potion that can be used to replenish my magic.

But what about the monkeys who don't know magic, they will only get tired, and then more tired.

Of course, another thing that makes the Hussein family stable is that they still believe that Huey controls the mines. And I believe that if this happened to someone else, maybe the Hussein family would hesitate and find out the truth of the incident.

But this matter is on Tyr, so the Hussein family will not hesitate.

After all, a person like Tyr, although he doesn't pat the aristocrats, not only some big families in the royal capital hate him, but even the Hussein family doesn't want to see him. However, it has to be admitted that this person is very capable.

Especially Tyr saw that he did not submit to the Hussein family, and made him stumble many times, and even he was assigned to the security regiment as the head of the regiment, and he was not assigned to the junior magicians who should be equipped with him, and the subordinates of the intermediate magicians were not assigned to him.

But Tyr still single-handedly built such a one-man flowing water moat system, and there were crocodiles in it.

Therefore, if you want to say something else, what is flowing out of the mountains, the power of this army, that army, is that it has looted some other towns and villages. Then the Hussein family may lazily send a magic guard to investigate this matter, and if it is true, they will destroy him.

But if you say that something happened to Tyr, then what do you say, the Hussein family doesn't believe it. They all felt that even if the security group was destroyed, with Tyr's strength, how could they escape from a group of mountain bandits.

Yes, the people of the Hussein family regarded this incident as a simple mountain bandit looting the township. Even if the name of the People's Salvation Army had reached the ears of some people, they were far away from that place in the southern part of Hussein province where birds did not lay eggs and magic was thin, and they did not bother to find out what was going on in the distance.

For many years, this army, that kingdom, including a thug who ran out of the mountains and claimed to be some kind of emperor, the Hussein family has heard of it. Naturally, he didn't take the People's Salvation Army seriously.

And I have to say that this is the luck of the People's Salvation Army. I tasted the sweetness of releasing the news, but it didn't cause the consequences. Thanks to the fact that it was Qingling that Thompson sent everyone to at the beginning, and in the eyes of the magic nobles, the magic power was thin, and the area was not worth mentioning. Even if there is iron ore, it is only used to arm the guards used as cannon fodder.

After the 2,000 conscripts of the People's Salvation Army were completed, the unqualified ones were eliminated after strict screening, and a part of them was added to determine the final conscription candidates. The conscription was stopped. Then the second and third regiments, respectively, were taken by Tsuneishi and Yan Xiaohuan to the mine station, as well as the newly built tribal station.

With the advancement of time, Liang Shuopeng's firing pin production finally has an eyebrow. Looking at the steelmaking converter that Robin had worked so hard to install, Liang Shuopeng happily said that he wanted to invite Robin to dinner. Robin glanced at him with disgust and said, "A few handfuls, I don't know you yet, you must be eating in the cafeteria again, at most you ask Sister Xu to make me a Northeast stew." ”

Liang Shuopeng rubbed his nose, a little embarrassed, and smiled.

But in any case, the steel is now refined, and the raw materials for the firing pin are also guaranteed.

The next step is to make ammunition. Making ammunition is different from making guns, and there are projectiles before, bullets are a lot of consumption, and they have to be filled with gunpowder, but also bullets. The complexity of the process is outrageous.

But fortunately, Cheng Shaowei and Hou Pai have stayed up for more than half a month, every day and night, and now they are already like withered, with a lot of hair falling out.

Even Liang Shuopeng, who only cares about technology and doesn't care about life or death, looked at Cheng Shaowei and Hou Pai's appearance, and he was terrified.

Don't get me wrong, he's not worried about Cheng Shaowei and the Hou faction itself. Instead, he was worried that the two elder sisters, Han Xu and Duan Lingzi, would tie themselves up in the interrogation room and have a set of eighteen martial arts.

Liang Shuopeng hurriedly instructed the commander of the security company of the newly replaced R&D center to call people to go to the canteen to eat and drink, and also sent people to Li Xueyuan's hospital to get some medicine for the ink eye doctor to improve nutrition.

However, although Cheng Shaowei and Hou Pai were tossed, they were not human. But I have to say that a genius is a genius, and sure enough, the motor was successfully brought out. Even according to the idea that Liang Shuopeng had mentioned before, the Hou faction also used refined animal skins to make a conveyor belt.
