Chapter 54 Test Gun

Yang Changshou was stunned for a moment and didn't understand the reason for Xiao Tianjian's problem, so he nodded and said, "Of course, since it is for us to ensure the quality of the bird, then naturally all parts have to be completed by one person!

Xiao Tianjian immediately shook his head and said, "In fact, there is a better way!" Once the construction of a large number of birds officially begins, one person is responsible for the creation of the whole set of birds, which is obviously a waste of human and material resources! It's better to separate the craftsmen. Some people are responsible for building the pipe of birds, some people are responsible for building medicine pools, some people are responsible for building faucets, etc. All small parts are specially made by one person, and then someone is responsible for assembling these things, and finally carry out a unified acceptance test. No The problem can be put into storage and wait for it to be distributed to the military.

I think if I do this, it will save more labor, and everyone is only responsible for the creation of one thing. Over time, the craftsmanship will be extremely exquisite! It saves time and labor! This is called assembly line operation! Master Yang can consider my suggestion. This method can be called assembly line operation. Let's see if my method works or not.

After listening to this, Yang Changshou was stunned for a while, because for a long time, these blacksmiths, no matter what they did, were responsible for making all one thing, and each thing was their personal work. Xiao Tianjian now proposed that one person should be responsible for only one part and finally assemble it. Come on, can you do this?

But when you think about it carefully, I think that the method Xiao Tianjian gave them is really effective. Everyone is only responsible for the creation of one part. It doesn't take long to remember it. It must be very fast to build, and the waste rate will naturally be greatly reduced.

To build a bird's rifle, it is said that ten catties of wool iron produce one catty of fine iron, and a piece of iron tube costs several kilograms of fine iron. In fact, this is not the case, but many iron materials are consumed on waste products. This is also the distinction between a smart craftsman and a low-level craftsman. A smart craftsman is far from using so much wool iron to make a pipe. Although these waste products can be re-refined, the consumption is much larger than the amount used. If some people are absorbed in building a special scale pipe, it will not take long for these people to become masters of the pipe, and the yield will certainly be greatly increased. In the past, three or five pieces were built into one, which may be improved. For every two pieces, a qualified finished product will be made.

And Yang Changshou is also a person with a flexible mind, otherwise he will not become a master craftsman. Inferences, it is found that another advantage of doing so is that he can make full use of all the blacksmiths under him. Even poor blacksmiths and even apprentices can fully exert their labor. As long as they are asked to forge some wool iron, make it remove the impurities, and then give the forged refined iron to the next high-level craftsman to continue the next step of forging. In this way, it not only saves working hours, but also saves manpower, and fully mobilizes all manpower. Compared with the method they used for hundreds of years, the production volume It may be more than three or two times more.

Thinking of this, Yang Changshou suddenly became overjoyed and patted his head, so he laughed, held his fist and said to Xiao Tianjian, "I'm really convinced. The general's words enlightened me. It's really a good idea! Why didn't we think of such a good idea before? In this way, I'm afraid the production of iron weapons will be more than a few times! The little one has figured it out. Please rest assured, the general. The little one will start to arrange it according to the general's method tomorrow!"

Xiao Tianjian shook his head and said, "In fact, my method is not new. It is thought that as early as the pre-Qin era, the craftsmen of the State of Qin did this, but gradually people forgot this method. In addition, you craftsmen are willing to teach outsiders, only If you are willing to teach it to your children and grandchildren, and even pass it on to men but not to women. Once someone comes to death or something unexpected happens, those good skills will be lost. In this way, many good skills will be lost in the world. It's really a pity!

But I also know that this is for the job of your children and grandchildren, but you might as well think about it. In these troubled times, if everyone doesn't care about skills, how many skills will be lost, can you survive in these troubled times by yourself? How can your children and grandchildren benefit from this?

So at present, only everyone is not hesitate to pass on their skills to our craftsmen or apprentices. If Xing Tianjun is strong, your life will be guaranteed, and the lives of your children and grandchildren will be guaranteed. If Xing Tianjun is weak, everyone will lose this dependence. There is no need to say more about everything. Naturally, everyone understands what the consequences are. That's it! Do you understand what I mean?"

After listening to these craftsmen in the blacksmith's shop, although they dare not say that they fully understand, everyone seems to understand what Xiao Tianjian means, that is, the interests of all people here revolve around the interests of Xing Tianjun. When the Xing Tianjun is developed, they will naturally have no worries about food and clothing with their descendants, such as If the Xingtian army can't be strong, then there is no need to talk about everything. They will go to those imperable days as usual, so don't talk about benefiting their descendants!

So Yang Changshou nodded first. Now he is a craftsman of ironwork and has begun to pass on his craftsmanship to these subordinates, so he understands the most thoroughly. The rest of the blacksmiths also began to nod one by one. Xiao Tianjian looked at the crowd and nodded and laughed.

Not long after, the blacksmiths in the blacksmith's shop all laughed and burst into laughter.

"Okay, let's do your own work first! Master Yang, let's go! Go outside and try your shotgun! I received the news from Zhang Chao, and I rushed over for a moment!" Xiao Tianjian raised his hand to stop the laughter of the crowd, and then let them disperse. He pulled Yang Changshou and said to him as he walked.

Yang Changshou nodded repeatedly, walked in front of him to lead the way, and came to a slightly open place behind the back of Tiezuo, which brought a brand-new bird that had not even had time to be painted on the buttstock, and handed it to Xiao Tianjian.

"General, this is the newly built bird. We have tried it and will never explode. Please test the gun!" Yang Changshou said to Xiao Tianjian.

Xiao Tianjian reached out and took over the bird gun. As soon as he bought it, he felt a heavy pressure, which made people feel at ease. Moreover, after the length of the body was put on the unique shoulder stock of Xing Tianjun, it reached more than 1.5 meters, almost equal to the height of ordinary people. Whether it was weight or length, it exceeded him. We used to use a lot of birds, almost like a small nine-headed bird. To some extent, it is not wrong to say that it is Lu Mi, but Xiao Tianjian has not seen Lu Mi, so it is impossible to make a comparison at present, but in his opinion, even if he meets Lu Mi, even if he meets Lu Mi, he may not fall below. The wind is.

After Xiao Tianjian took over the bird gun, he carefully looked at the brand-new bird gun up and down, and immediately asked people to bring the ammunition and loaded it into the bird gun. After pounding it with a stick, he poured the medicine into the medicine pool. Then he covered the lid of the medicine pool, lit the fire rope, and completed it. A series of loading actions.

On this open ground, 30 steps, 50 steps, 70 steps and 100 steps away, each of them stands a thick pine board, the size of a door panel, coated with a big red dot, which is obviously used as a target for the test gun.

Xiao Tianjian is not talking nonsense. Everything needs to be checked in person, so he immediately chose the wooden target 50 steps away and picked up the bird gun. The new bird gun is very heavy. When holding the gun, it is also because of the growth of the force arm, it is a little difficult for the gun man to aim at the gun, but for Xiao Tianjian, he is a human being. The tall horse is big, the arms are long, and the strength is also very strong. The weight of more than ten pounds is not enough to affect his aiming according to the gun, so it has little impact on him. After picking up the gun, he steadily aimed at the wooden target. After stabilizing his arm, he immediately pulled down the faucet with a fire rope.

Then there was a dull sound, and a flame spewed out, and a large mass of smoke came out. Xiao Tianjian also felt that the butt of the gun on his shoulder hit back heavily while firing, indicating that the recoil of the bird was already quite considerable. People with little strength are really not easy to hold the gun. Aim, you have to find a way to solve this.

After he fired a shot, he threw the bird gun to a guard and asked him to reload it. He took people to the wooden target and walked to the front of the wooden target. Xiao Tianjian immediately lay on the wooden target to check.

Just a little below the red heart of the wooden target, a hole appeared. The wooden target more than an inch thick was completely penetrated by his shot just now. If it hits the person, even if it is put on iron armor, this shot is enough to penetrate the iron armor and into the human body, which shows that this new bird gun has no problem in quality. The power is at least about 50 steps, which can cause a fatal blow to the enemy wearing iron armor.

After looking at it, Xiao Tianjian smiled and said, "The accuracy of this distance is not bad, and the power is enough. It seems that it is still right to improve the bird this time!" It's no problem to break the armor in 50 steps! How about going back and trying seventy steps again!"

In one afternoon, Xiao Tianjian used this bird gun and shot 30 or 40 shots flatly. Each shot had to check the effect of the shooting, and Xiao Tianjian also constantly made people hang various armor on these wooden targets and carry out experiments to fully test the power of this new bird gun.

Through the afternoon's experiment, Xiao Tianjian's face was blackened, and his eyes were also smoked with gunpowder smoke, but he didn't care at all and was interested in the test one shot after another.

In the end, Xiao Tianjian came to such a conclusion about this new bird shot. This new bird shot has basically achieved his ideal purpose. At 50 steps, it can break the heavy armor and cause fatal damage to the enemy. Seventy steps away (basically blind, the hit rate is not high), it can break ordinary iron armor and cause death. A hundred steps away (if you hit it, of course, there are still some opportunities for the goal of the size of the door panel!), it can also cause fatal killing for armorless people. The increased caliber aggravates the projectile, and the damage to the enemy exceeds the original bird, which can be called a killing weapon. If you want to continue to increase its power If so, we should continue to increase the caliber and increase the amount of charge.
