airship!

Wei Wenchang naturally knew that there were airships in the Shengong Hall, not only the Shengong Hall, but also the Dachu Hall, but the airships were used for transportation. What has the relationship with defending Shengong City?

Before seeing the output of fine iron here, Wei Wenchang didn't care. Now it won't work. The output is too large. As long as the safety here can be guaranteed, Da Chu will not have to worry about insufficient military armor in the future. As long as the military headquarters can recruit soldiers and train, there will be a continuous stream of soldiers, and well-armed soldiers will go to the battlefield and compete with the Austrians.

"Lei Master, the airship transport capability is very strong, so it is natural that it is not a problem to evacuate the personnel of the Shengong Temple, but these blast furnaces and the iron ore on the ground cannot be evacuated." Wei Wenchang said patiently. This is to face Renault, the magical secret master, if it were someone else, he would have slapped him with a long time ago. How do you say it?

Renault smiled slightly: "It seems that General Wei has limited understanding of airships. Let's do this. Give me two days to demonstrate to the General."

"Okay, Wei is waiting for the good news." Renault used his three years of actual performance to make no one dare to underestimate him, and no one used his own ideas to figure out his thoughts. The secret master's secret technique is not something that ordinary people can understand.

Call Huya and ask them to make gunpowder bombs, call Zhangtan and ask him to prepare a head-down crossbow with a rotating disc and corresponding arrows.

It is easy to understand bombs, it is a bomb pack with added materials. This head-down crossbow is a small bed crossbow improved by Renault. Under the crossbow, a rotating base that can rotate freely 360 degrees is installed. The crossbow arrow is also different from ordinary ones. A drop-off device is installed at the tail of the arrow.

A general crossbow can only be shot flat or sling. You cannot shoot downwards. If you push the crossbow arrow to the ground, it is easy to fall directly from the crossbow machine. A crossbow can solve this problem well by lowering its head.

In addition to these two weapons, three airships need to be modified, with openings on the bottom of the hanging blue. These technologies have existed for a long time, but they have not been used. Renault actually looks down on crossbows. Unfortunately, the musket is not mature at present and it is difficult to create. Even if the craftsman camp repeatedly improves it, it can only produce fifty branches a day. This output is far from enough to support a national battle.

"Sir, Mo Zi is asking for a meeting." As soon as the arrangement was made, Mo Xiang walked in and said.

"Let him come in." Mo Zi rarely asks to see Renault. Apart from normal school entrance exams, Mo Zi is an absolute tech resident and never leaves the laboratory.

"Sir, please." After three years, Mo Zi has grown from a skinny little kid to a young man today. He has a good meal and is in a good mood. Why does Mo Zi look very strong but not tall?

"Sit down, is there anything wrong?" Renault asked. There were too many things in the Shengong Temple and there were not enough talents. After reaching the forbidden area of ​​Death, Renault was very busy and basically couldn't find any time to be idle.

"Sir, the base fire you want has been tested a few days ago. Can you see if it can be used?" Mo Zi said, taking out more than a dozen base fires from the bag he carried with him.

This little thing makes Mozi difficult. It is not only a material problem. The thing that the teacher wants is very small and very timid when doing work. It requires big work to make more than a dozen. One big worker can create more than a dozen materials a day. There are hundreds of materials that require experiments, plus various combinations. The project team is expected to need to do tens of thousands of experiments before it can find the materials that the teacher wants.

Mo Zi was lucky. Among the new materials he chose, there is one of the characteristics that will produce a partition spark after being hit.

The so-called compartment spark refers to hitting the copper base from one side, and the material on the other side will produce one or several small sparks. The time is very short, which just meets the requirements of Mr.

Who knows what the use of this game is? Not to mention the craftsmen who participated in the experiment, even Mozi and Zhang Tan were confused and didn't know what the teacher intended.

Mozi picked up one of them, and the base fire was only the size of a fingernail. The round copper piece was in the center of the copper piece, and there was a carved center point.

The bottom fire was clamped on the vise, Mozi found the hammer and alloy needle, aimed at the center of the bottom fire, and at the same time, put turf on the other side of the bottom fire, and hit it slightly hard.

With a slight sound of 'clang', the metal hitting sound was particularly nice. I saw four small sparks appearing at the other end of the bottom fire, igniting the turquoise below.

Renault's eyes were completely attracted. Renault actually didn't understand the principle of Ray Mercury, but he understood the purpose of Ray Mercury. He hit the needle and ignited the priming medicine in the bottom fire through Ray Mercury, and then ignited the gun medicine in the shell through the combustion of the priming medicine. Through the principle of thermal expansion, hundreds or thousands of times of expansion were generated. The powerful expansion pressure pushed the warhead and shot out of the gun chamber.

The primer fire created by Mozi is definitely different from the bullet principle on earth, but the effect is much better. There is no need to use the lead-in medicine to increase the combustion value, and the gunpowder can be ignited directly.

Unfortunately, he doesn't have real gun medicine. Not to mention gun medicine, he doesn't even have smokeless gun medicine. The combustion value and expansion rate of black gun medicine are much lower.

Therefore, you either endure the range and power of the bullet, or increase the charge amount to make the bullet larger, but the warhead cannot increase its weight, so that the penetration and range of the warhead can be ensured.

Don’t underestimate the armor of the Great Chu world. The leather armor of the Light Cavalry weighs 30 kilograms. The flintlock firing can shoot through a hundred steps away. If it is replaced with iron armor, it must be placed within fifty steps before it can be killed in one blow.

In Renault's view, a gun that cannot kill people from three hundred steps can only be regarded as a toy. The cavalry's speed is too fast, and it takes only ten seconds for three hundred steps. The firing rate of the flintlock rifle can only be fired by someone running back and forth, and you can shoot a projectile, which is useful.

Not to mention a few segments of shooting, no matter how many segments are, they are just shooting separately, and the total amount of projectiles shot will not change.

This is why Renault is not optimistic about the flintlock rifle. When the cavalry charge, the flintlock rifle can only fire one shot and there is no chance to shoot a second bullet.

If you want this opportunity, you have to use other troops to add to it, block the enemy and add to the time for the musketeers.

It is slower than bows and crossbows. When the enemy rushed within thirty steps, it is hard to say which one is greater, but the speed of the bows and crossbows is obviously better than that of the muskets.

With the base fire and the fixed-loading bullets, it is completely different. Renault can turn the flintlock into a rear-loading bolt-acting gun in minutes. As for the automatic rifle, is it still far away?

The principle of an automatic rifle is not very difficult. Even if Renault doesn't know the structure of an automatic rifle, as long as he teaches the principles to craftsmen, with the ability of the craftsmen of the Great Chu, it will not take long to manufacture it.

Looking at the fire in front of him, Renault sighed softly, "Time, he doesn't have enough time. Automatic rifles and machine guns are definitely big killers in the world of Da Chu. No matter how powerful the Ao Ren is, with such a weapon, Renault dares to take tens of thousands of people to the Ao Ren's hometown."

But……

Can't afford to play!

Anyone who has learned a little history knows that people live. When they suffer losses, they will think of various solutions. The result is that bullets kill people, and they need to use the number of them to pile them up.

It is not a joke to kill a person if hundreds or thousands of bullets are needed.

This phenomenon was originally normal, but Renault couldn't afford it. He did not have automated equipment, power source, and even assembly line.

How long does a thousand bullets take to build? Renault didn't dare to think about it carefully. Even if all the craftsmen were drained, they might not be able to create a thousand bullets a day.

No need to do more, even if you are bolting the gun, just create a thousand branches and one volley will be shot out.

Renault was worried about the output. Even if he was driven by hydraulic power, the speed of making bullets could not be faster. He couldn't even raise a team of bolt-action rifles with a thousand people. One month of production was not enough for this team to fight for a few minutes. So how could he play?

With heavy steps, Renault opened the rattan box and found a few drawings from it. These were Renault's inventory. Most of the plans were collected by Cui Qing. These boxes of plans and drawings were all that Renault felt that they needed to be kept confidential or could not be completed in a short period of time.

"Mozi, come and see, these are two new types of muskets. Establish a project team to see if they can be made?" As he said that, two drawings were placed on the table.

Mozi respectfully picked it up and looked through it. Mr.’s personal goods were all good things, and no one could show them, and he didn’t even have the chance to see them. Every time he saw these novel designs, Mozi was shocked. Mr. is the gentleman, and he was unique.

The first type of two types of firearms Renault took out was a single-soldier bolt-action rifle. This thing has a relatively simple structure and does not require air conductors. It can be manually mounted. Mo Zi glanced at it and understood what was going on.

Before, he really couldn't understand. But with the fire, he knew it in his heart.

The second type of firearm is a chain machine gun, which is the killer weapon prepared by Renault for the Austrians. The bolt-action rifle is of course very advanced for Da Chu, but when it was first made, it was insufficient in quantity and it might not be able to withstand the Austrians' cavalry.

Machine guns are different. As long as there is enough ammunition, this thing is a cavalry terminator, and it is not enough to kill.

Mozi looked at it for half an hour and his eyes were filled with little stars, sir, a sage.

"Sir, is this a gun that can be shot continuously?" Mo Zi's talent in mechanical manufacturing is unparalleled, and Renault is far inferior to him anyway.

"Well, this kind of gun is called a machine gun. If you add a mechanism to the gun, you can shoot continuously."

After saying that, he took out the third drawing, opened the drawing and said, "This is the design drawing of the bullet."

In fact, bullet manufacturing is more troublesome than guns, with a smaller size, more numerous and complex structure.

After opening the drawings, looking at them for a few glances, Mo Zi understood, pointed to the drawings and said, "Sir, this structure?"

"It can be simplified. I was worried that there would be no good base fire, so I installed a guild pool here. If it could be directly ignited, this one would not be needed." Renault nodded and said. The original bullet design drawing was designed according to the earth's gunpowder weapon, and the structure of the bottom of the bullet was much more complicated.

"Yes." Mo Zi said excitedly.
