Chapter 008 Big Expert
Zhuo Fan was in a bad mood. When Princess Changping left, she looked as if she had lost her soul, and her sad eyes made her a little upset.
Without speculation, Zhuo Fan suddenly felt that he and Princess Changping were very interesting. They met twice and ended up not so pleasantly. Before the princess left, she still asked Zhuo Bofan to think more. In fact, what Changping did not say was that this matter was not easy to refuse. His father had made up his mind that if Zhuo Bofan did not agree, it would be very likely. Of course, the princess can't say anything about this matter. She is now more confused than extraordinary. This man who likes bad laughter can always make her lose her sense.
The unhappiness between Zhuo Fan and the princess was obvious at a glance. Naturally, he was also seen by Zhuo Yin and his wife. He was relieved and did not ask again. However, he secretly made up his mind to quickly handle Zhuo Fan's marriage. None of these royal people have a good relationship. You know, there are very few times when my family is in a bad mood. When I saw the princess like this, I still quickly left.
The next day, Zhuo Bofan received a notice from Tiangongfang that the firearm had been made, and three branches of fire spontaneously grew, waiting for his inspection.
Zhuo Bofan was in a better mood and left the matter of Princess Changping behind for the time being. To be honest, Zhuo Bofan has really never seen the firearms of this era. After being sensible, he is infatuated with women's fragrance. How can he pay attention to such things? At present, he rushed to the Tiangong Workshop with Zhuo Er and Zhou Tong.
As soon as the door opened, there were several familiar veterans. These were 20 Zhuo's army veterans who sneaked back in batches yesterday, all of which were placed in the Tiangong workshop. Their task was very clear, which was to fully take over the security work of the Tiangong workshop to ensure that the internal secrets would not be leaked. Although you can no longer wear military uniforms, the bulging clothes are all life-threatening things. If you protect such a workshop, these bloody battlefield veterans can be regarded as useless.
On the polished smooth and shiny white pine wooden large board table, three exquisite long beams flashed with faint light, and the two experts watched Zhuo Fan play with pride and expectation. This is what they gathered the talents of the two, synthesized the latest research results in recent years, and worked overtime to make it. If Dahua has a more advanced performance and better linear fire, they won't believe it.
Zhuo extraordinary picked up a long gun, and when he bought it, it was a sink. The weight was not light, and it was heavier than the ordinary thin-edged simple knife. Looking at the long barrel of those long guns, the weight should be on it. And the long wooden buttstock like a bird's beak is also a little funny. Of course, this is compared with the modern rifle that Zhuo Fan knows.
"How far can you play?" Zhuo Fan fiddled with the long scales and asked casually.
"The effective distance is not less than 500 cloths." Bi Maokang is the main designer. At this moment, he proudly replied that this range has far exceeded Dahua's best long shot.
Zhuo Bufan does not say anything and does not need to verify. He believes the words of the experts of Bi University, but 500 steps are less than 300 meters, which is still the ultimate range. That is to say, in practical application, it will not exceed 400 steps and 400 cloth. It is not far enough for the group cavalry charge, especially the fast Tatar horse he has seen.
"The front outfit?" Zhuo Fan suddenly asked this sentence, which made the two experts stunned, looked at each other, and immediately felt that the young master was not simple.
If you can ask the word preloading, that's the proconnominator. You know, the idea of Dahua's rear-loading gun has only appeared recently. If the rearloading is realized, the loading speed will naturally increase greatly. However, because it has been unable to solve the problem of tail gunpowder gas closure, this is still a technique in the experiment.
"Exactly", Bi Maokang's attitude was obviously humble and said, "For the tail, the range should be reduced by 100 steps, so the front suit is still used."
"Well", Zhuo Bofan put down the long gong, and his expression was obviously not very satisfied. He walked to the coffee table and sat down to drink tea.
The two experts hesitated and finally bowed to ask for instructions: "I don't know what the owner is dissatisfied with. I can't wait to improve more." Joking, it's not easy to live a good life, but this job can't be ruined.
Zhuo Bofan nodded and said, "These three long bis are still good. I believe you have done your best, but it is still far from my request." After saying that, he ordered others to wait and retreat, leaving only himself and the two experts. What they are going to say must not be revealed.
Zhuo Fan asked Bi Maokang to take out the design drawing of the long gun, picked up the pen, circled three places on it, one is the buttstock, one is the tail of the barrel, and the other is the long barrel.
Bi Maokang asked carefully, "Is this the dissatisfaction of the head?"
"Exactly." Zhuo Fan said, while drawing on the paper with a pen, he said, "If the butt of the gun is changed to this, the rear installation must be realized. At the same time, the barrel is three points shorter than now."
The two experts were shocked and wiped their cold sweat while looking at the stock drawn by Zhuo Bufan. The stock is a small matter. However, this rear installation is really an immature technology. At the same time, the barrel has also been tested many times, and the short range is even more impossible to guarantee. According to this change, it is good to hit 200 steps.
However, Zhuo Bufan added: "At the same time, the range will be increased to more than 800 steps."
The two experts almost lay down and said with a sad face, "This, young master, I'm afraid, that's unlikely."
Zhuo Nonfan ignored it and continued to ask, "What is the firing speed of this gun now?"
"More than ten hits." Bi Maokang's answer was not so confident.
Zhuo Bofan nodded, one hour and eight minutes, one minute divided into three parts, one is about five minutes, five minutes ten rounds, and thirty seconds one round, which is really slow.
"My request is 60 rounds," Zhuo Fan said with great certainty.
Bi Maokang and Zhao Shizhen almost fell down and resisted the impulse to spit blood and shouted in unison, "This, this is impossible!"
Just kidding, it's okay to change the butt from such a beautiful birdstock to such an ugly bird's butt, it's okay to use the rear end, and cut off a small half of the barrel, requiring a range of 800 steps, and 60 rounds. Isn't this deliberately embarrassing us?
The more Bi Maokang thought about it, the more angry he became. The old scholar's temper came up. He lost the caliper in his hand and turned around and was about to leave. "Don't do it. Even if I starve to death, I won't accept this kind of difficulty."
"Damn, stop!" Zhuo Fan slapped the table, and Zhou Tong flashed at the door and stopped Bi Maokang.
Daes, set up a big expert's score for me. Humph, small sample, can't kill you. Zhuo Fan said, "If you don't do it, you won't do it. Do you think this is your Ordnance Bureau? Let me tell you, what I said is an order. You can do whatever you want. It's not negotiable." Zhuo Fan is very resolute about this. He is not a good man. He dares to leave. I don't mind killing your mouth.
Zhao Shizhen has a lot of thoughts and quickly came forward to comfort him. He was also anxious. Brother Bi has a bad temper and doesn't look at what the situation is now. He made arms privately and left as soon as you want. At the same time, Zhao Shizhen also explained to Zhuo Bufan, "Don't be angry, the head of the family. To be honest, these requirements really can't be done."
"Of course you can't do it. With my guidance, you can do it naturally." Zhuo Fan said stinkyly.
"Huh, Huangkou's child opened his mouth." Bi Maokang's temper really didn't subside so well. He said angrily, "This is a firearm, not a family. We have been studying firearms for decades. Isn't it as good as you, a smelly boy?"
"Oh?" Zhuo Bufan laughed angrily, but he admired this Bi Maokang in his heart. This situation can still be as hard as a pit stone, which is also a little backbone. Now he said, "Don't believe it. What if I can do it?"
"Well, don't say anything else. If you can increase the range by 100 steps without sawing the barrel, you are my master!" Bi Maokang said with great certainty that the barrel and the explosive bore are the best results obtained after countless tests. Under the highest charge, the range can never be any increase. If this If you don't hold it, you don't have to do it yourself.
"Okay, gentleman's words."
"It's hard to catch up with horses!"
At present, a young man made this bet. Although there is no circumstantial evidence, no one has ever thought of breaking the contract.
So, in the spacious factory, Zhuo Fan and two experts gathered a team of masters together. Zhuo Fan picked up a barrel that had been formed and had not yet made a simple rifled line, glanced at it, and said to a teacher in charge of barrel shaping, "How do you make this rifled line?"
"It is pulled with a steel strip and cut directly after tempering, so it has to be repeated many times," the master replied.
"Well, okay, then, can you let this cutter or barrel be twisted when pulling the wire?" Zhuo Fan asked that this extremely simple method should work.
"Screw it?" The teacher doesn't understand. This straight line will be fine. If you twist it, it's all bent. Can it still be used?
Bi Maokang beside him sneered and said, "You think it's twisting a towel, are you kidding."
"Yes, yes, yes, haha, Lao Bi, thank you." Zhuo Butfan had a headache, but he didn't expect Bi Maokang to inadvertently remind himself, "Just twist it like a towel, not too much, just a circle."
The master understood, picked up the barrel, thought carefully for a long time, and nodded, "This is no problem. It's not difficult to return the fire and use the wire drawing pliers, but in this way, the barrel will be useless..." A barrel requires a lot of money.
Zhuo Bufan said with great joy: "It's okay. I'm the head. You can do whatever you want. Let it go. Pay attention to keep the overall shape straight. Don't mess up the river inside. Don't worry about the rest."
At present, Zhuo Fan's eyes widened, Bi Maokang sneered, and others didn't know, watching several masters get busy together.
