Chapter 152 Gradual Change
(Not bad, praise yourself, come up with a big chapter of 5,000 words, everyone encourages! Red ticket!)
Xiao Tianjian was a little flustered by Yang Changshou, a general on the left and a general on the right. For a long time, his brothers have been used to his palm plate. Even after Xing Tianjun became an army, everyone still saw that he wanted to call the palm plate. No matter how awkward it sounds, this palm plate is the name of the pole head. As long as he is still called Palm Plate, then Xing Tianjun has not left the category of ordinary poles, but Yang Changshou may be because the people who fled here from the north are used to calling the people leading the team a general. The name of this general is much better than that of the Palm Plate.
But Xiao Tianjian's happiness is not about the general's name. After listening to Yang Changshou's words, he was immediately overjoyed. This is really a place to break through the iron shoes. It takes no effort! He has been looking for such a long time to find a craftsman who can make birds, but now he has made him get a master among the exiles almost effortlessly. How can this not make him happy? What's more, Yang Changshou is almost a genius. He can not only make birds, but also cast artillery. This is a treasure. Having such a person is more affordable than he getting thousands of gold, so he immediately laughed.
"You can rest assured about this. Come on, give Master Yang a seat and sit down and talk! To tell you the truth, I've been looking for a craftsman like you everywhere these days! Hard work pays off! Finally, I found it! You can rest assured about the iron materials. Our Xing Tianjun will not be as greedy as the government. If you are allowed to build things, they will naturally give you enough materials!
I want to ask you, in addition to the bird, can you also create Lumi? Xiao Tianjian was so happy that he no longer held the shelf of his hand plate. He immediately asked Tietou to bring a chair to Yang Changshou, let him sit down and talk, and also called Yang Changshou Master Yang.
This made Yang Changshou a little dizzy. Although he is a skillful craftsman, his craftsman has always been humble and has always been looked down upon, and even the status of the military household is not comparable. After seeing Xiao Tianjian this time, the big master actually valued him so much. He not only gave him a seat but also called him a master. This is It was very rare, which immediately made Yang Changshou a little flattered and even said that he didn't dare to do it.
Xiao Tianjian still insisted on letting him sit down and talk. Yang Changshou was really helpless. After thanking Xiao Tianjian, he sat down with half of his buttocks on the chair brought to him by the iron head and replied to Xiao Tianjian, "I've heard of Lu Mi's small size, and I've seen it in Jizhen. It's really sharp. Compared with birds, this Lu Mi's weight is heavier. Some, and the tube should be thicker, which can shoot a hundred steps away. The small one also watched it carefully at that time, but the practice of the tube seems to be different from that of the bird, and the others are easy to say, but if this small tube is built, I'm afraid it will have to be explored slowly!"
Yang Changshou is honest. He didn't say anything. Xiao Tianjian felt a little disappointed after listening to it, but it is impossible to have all-time talents in the world. Yang Changshou is not a craftsman of the Ministry of Industry. He must have much contact with this kind of Lu Mi, and it is not surprising that he can't build it, but in his opinion, this kind of The matter can be completely solved. It just needs some exploration process. As long as the conditions permit in the future, he can discuss this problem with Yang Changshou, so he continued to ask, "So that's it. Has Master Yang ever heard of a task gun?"
Although the arson gun is an advanced weapon in this era, the arquebus gun itself has many innate shortcomings, not to mention the cumbersome operation and loading. When the arquebus gun is operated, the shooter must first ensure that the fire rope is in a burning state, sometimes a little Inadvertentness may cause fire. In addition, the musket is seriously affected by the weather. Once it rains, it becomes a piece of scrap iron. It can only be used as an iron rod, nothing can be done. Not only on rainy days, but also in windy weather, it will seriously affect the use of the musket, and often the drug will be blown away by the strong wind. As a result, it causes a blind fire, so a large number of fire rope guns will also be blind and unusable. Another reason is that when the fire rope gun is used at night, because the fire rope must be lit for standby, so the target will be exposed far away at night. For once you need to fight at night, for the side that uses the fire rope gun, In the past, it will cause passivity.
Not long ago, in the famous Battle of Sal Margin, the Ming army always held a torch in the thick fog because of the need to ignite the ignition of the musket, exposing the target of the Ming army. As a result, it suffered a big loss of the Eastern Man, which made most of the elite battle of the Ming Army lose. Therefore, after Xiao Tianjian reached this era, he has been thinking about getting out the fire. The gun is equipped with his musketers, which can overcome the shortcomings of many muskets and give greater play to the musketman's combat effectiveness.
"Flint gun? I've never heard of it!" After listening to Xiao Tianjian's inquiry, Yang Changshou replied confusedly.
Xiao Tianjian thought about it, didn't he? The musket is called in Western Europe. Although it may have been developed now, it may not have been introduced to China. Therefore, it is absolutely not surprising that people like Yang Changshou have never heard of muskets. But what should this musket be called in China in this era? Xiao Tianjian couldn't figure it out for a while, so he had to give up.
Although Yang Changshou did not know how to build Lumi guns and had never heard of flecters, Xiao Tianjian was still very happy. He immediately asked other blacksmiths who also knew how to build fire guns to give them to Yang Changshou's leadership, so that they immediately began to use the materials at hand to build bird guns, and at the same time repair those with the problems they are using now. Bird gun, make Xing Tianjun equipped with more fire gunners as soon as possible.
Yang Changshou was also very happy about Xiao Tianjian's praise, which made him feel that there was a rare light on his face, man! In fact, everyone subconsciously wants to be respected. Craftsmen like them have never been looked at seriously before, but now when it comes to Xing Tianjun, they are so valued by the big master. This alone makes them happy, so they naturally work hard.
As soon as these blacksmiths entered Tianlongzhai, the blacksmith shop in the back mountain of Tianlongzhai did not stop for a moment. The sound of jingling iron was never heard all day long. A batches of three-edged gun heads were constantly built, and then they were replaced into the long gunners of the war camp.
Everyone is quite disapproving of this kind of black and seemingly simple gunhead, but experienced people can see the mystery at a glance. The shape of the three-ed-edging gun head is similar to the arrows of the three-edded armored arrows used in the army, but it is sharper. There are blood grooves on three sides. In terms of shape alone, this kind of gun tip It is more conducive to assassination. In addition, it cannot be used as it, and it also limits the action of assassination that cannot be deformed. If the action is deformed and swept, it is almost the same as a stick, so it can only be used for assassination. And after getting these gun heads and changing them into the barrel, Yan Chongxi immediately took this kind of gun head. A comparison test.
When he caught up with the time when the first soldier was about to kill the pig, he asked someone to tie up a mouthful of fat pig, so that the two strong soldiers tried to assassinate the fat pig with two long guns at the same time.
Although the two guns penetrated smoothly and deeply into the body of the fat pig, and the fat pig made a sad howl, when withdrawing the gun, it was obvious that the gun with the three-edged gun head was pulled out more smoothly, and the fat pig's wound immediately spewed out a large amount of blood, and the ordinary willow-shaped gun head Although it also caused a lot of damage to the fat pig, it was very laborious when pulling the gun. The fat pig did not die for a moment, and the muscles then contracted and tightly "absorbed" the willow-shaped gun head, which made the soldier who used the gun draw the gun slow. In the end, although the gun head was also pulled out, the willow-shaped gun head was pulling out. After coming out, it was obviously deformed, and the amount of bleeding from the fat pig's wound was obviously not as much as the amount of bleeding from the wound caused by the three-edging gun head.
As an experienced veteran, Yan Chongxi naturally immediately saw the advantage of the three-edging gun head. The advantage of the three-edging gun head is obvious under such a comparison. It is not only much stronger than the willow leaf-shaped gun head. In general, the gun head is not easy to break, and because of the three blood grooves on its body, it is pierced. The action of drawing the gun is very smooth, and there is no feeling of stickiness, which is very important. When the long gunner fights against the enemy, he often stabs the opponent with one shot, but the opponent often does not immediately lose combat effectiveness. The muscles on the body will contract violently due to injury, and often can jam the tip of the opponent's gun, and then The counterattack at the moment when the opponent can't pull out the gun often causes a situation of both defeats. On the battlefield, life and death can often be decided in an instant. Although it is such a little effort, it may determine a person's life. Therefore, based on this alone, the three-edged gun head has a great advantage.
The onlookers immediately squatted down and carefully examined the fat pig's wound on the ground. Everyone immediately found that the wound caused by the three-edged gunhead was obviously a triangular mouth. Such a wound could not be closed by itself at all, causing more bleeding, which was obviously much higher than the damage caused by the willow-shaped gunhead. Everyone couldn't help taking a deep breath.
"Poisonous gun!" This is an idea that flashes in the minds of everyone who participated in the experiment.
So people who don't care about the three-edged gun head suddenly no longer dare to look down on the unattractive guy in their hands. Everyone couldn't put it down and took the new gun head to maintain and polish the blade.
Xiao Tianjian proudly watched these people do comparison experiments. All this can be said to be in his expectation. Although later generations dare not say that they are smarter than their predecessors, the amount of information they receive is definitely not comparable to that of their predecessors. The traumatology of later generations has been quite developed. What kind of weapons will cause more trauma to the human body? I'm afraid that the common sense of people in later generations is far more than that of the doctors in the previous life.
When seeing the soldiers going to polish the blade of the three-edged gunhead in their hands, Xiao Tianjian stopped them: "You don't have to do this. As long as the tip of the gun is sharp, there is no need to open the blade at all. In that case, the killing of the enemy will be much more powerful than after the blade!" Believe it or not, even if it's a little rusty, it doesn't matter!"
After saying that, Xiao Tianjian left a group of confused guys, made them continue to practice, and turned back to the blacksmith's shop to work.
After the crowd dispersed, the fire soldier came over scolding, looked at the dying fat pig on the ground, and scolded: "Dude, what's the trouble for these pigs if they have nothing to do! Is there anyone who kills pigs like this? Isn't this pot of pig blood spoiled in vain? This is not the way to kill pigs! Isn't this tossing pigs? How can I blow a pig by stabbing two such big holes!" But his scolding did not dare to scold those soldiers to his face. Although he was full of complaints, he still used a sharp pig-killing knife to make up for the unlucky pig, ending its pain. A group of people carried the pig and began to go back to cook meat.
Holding a shot of a bird that had just been repaired by Yang Changshou, Xiao Tianjian tried to aim in his hand, so he said, "This kind of gun handle is not good!" At present, this kind of gun handle can only be held in the right hand, and the left hand flat end of the gun body depends on arm strength. The gun handle can be modified and lengthen the stock, so that when the musket is aimed with a gun, it can have a support point on the shoulder to form a more stable support, so that it can be aimed more accurately and definitely improve the hit!"
Xiao Tianjian found a shortcoming of the bird gun they are using now before, that is, the gunstock of the bird gun they use now is just a curved handle, which is very different from the rifle stock shape of later generations. It looks very primitive. Although the fire gun can also put his face on the bent handle and aim through the door and the front sight. However, only two hands can be used to control the stability of the gun body, which is far less stable than the shoulder-to-shoulder stock of later rifles. There is no need to think about the hit rate, and it must not be as good as a gun with a shoulder-to-shoulder stock. So today, after having a gun-making craftsman at hand, he finally put forward suggestions for improvement.
Yang Changshou put down the work in his hand, looked at the bird in Xiao Tianjian's hand, and replied doubtfully, "General, the bird is in this way. The little one doesn't quite understand what you mean!"
Xiao Tianjian shook his head slightly and said, "As a craftsman, you don't have to abide by the rules. If everything abides by the rules, then you can't improve your skills, especially to build weapons. You have to think about how to improve the effect of the use of weapons. Of course, you may not quite understand what I said. It seems that you have to find a carpenter to do this kind of thing!
I'm still thinking about one thing, Master Yang, you see, although this bird is sharp and the lead bullet can kill the enemy dozens of steps away, it is complicated and powerful. Often you can only shoot one shot in the battle, so you don't have time to load the second shot again. If a gunner can only shoot one shot on the battlefield, it's really too wave. It's a waste of manpower!
Once the gunner releases the gun and is bullied by the enemy, the bird will become a fire stick. The gunman can be said to have no power to fight back in the face of the enemy. Either he can only retreat to the team or be slaughtered by the enemy!
I think about one thing. If you prepare a dagger in front of the bird's gun or simply prepare a three-edging gun stab. Once the musket releases the gun, it can't be loaded to hit the enemy before the enemy gets close to it. The musketeer can put the short sword at the front of the muzzle. In this way, the bird gun can be used as a short thorn gun, and the bird gun can be used as a short. The length of the sword is almost the same as that of a bayonet. It should not be a loss to deal with an enemy with a single knife. In this way, the fireman can also catch up with the enemy's short soldiers, without having no power to fight back! What does Master Yang think?
Yang Changshou thought about it, hey! It's really the same. After the bird is loaded with a dagger or a short knife, it can indeed be used to fight with the enemy. In this way, the fire hand has an extra layer of life protection. Many times, there are some things that are just people who don't expect. Often, as long as they think about it, some things are already very simple, and one point is transparent. Yang Changshouli Even if he nodded and said happily, "The general is really talented. I have never thought of this kind of thing before. It's not difficult to do this at all. The little one will be done immediately. You can create one or two tomorrow and give it to the brothers of the gunners!"
Xiao Tianjian nodded and asked Yang Changshou to immediately start arranging manpower to do this, but he didn't want him to delay repairing the bird and building a new bird. This kind of thing could be done by an ordinary craftsman. Yang Changshou immediately nodded and agreed.
After Xiao Tianjian made an iron work, he immediately asked someone to call a well-crafted carpenter and gave him the bird in his hand. He casually took a branch and drew a few strokes on the ground. He explained to the carpenter. The carpenter nodded repeatedly, took over the bird and patted his chest and said, "Don't worry! This kind of small thing can definitely be done! We also have ready-made ruce wood here. It's just right to do this. If you don't paint it, it won't take much effort! The little one, just do it!"
The next morning, a brand-new bird's butt was handed over to Xiao Tianjian, and a new short knife specially designed for bird's hand was also made and sent to Xiao Tianjian.
Xiao Tianjian immediately took these two things to the field dedicated to the fireman training, and invited all the firemans to help him fill the newly transformed bird with ammunition, lit the fire rope and stuck on the boarded faucet.
Xiao Tian firmly put the buttstock on his shoulder, aimed at a wooden target, and then pulled down the trigger and the faucet fell. After a gunshot, a bullet hole immediately appeared on the wooden target 40 steps away.
"The palm plate is a good shooting! It's so accurate!" Immediately surrounded by flattery, surging towards Xiao Tianjian.
However, Xiao Tianjian was not satisfied with the newly built bayonet, because the blacksmiths' idea was too simple, but an iron rod about the thickness of the barrel was added to the back of a short knife, which was directly inserted into the barrel when used, but the disadvantage of this was that the musket could no longer be loaded and fired. The other one is too loose and easy to fall off. If it is too tight, it is difficult to pull it out. Xiao Tianjian is naturally very dissatisfied with this bayonet, so he asked the blacksmith to take it back and think about it again. It is required that it should not only be installed firmly, but also cannot affect the loading and firing of the musket, nor affect the aiming!
Xiao Tianjian was too lazy to take care of this kind of thing, so he let the blacksmiths think about it by themselves. After calculating with his fingers, he found Jin Fuzi to discuss new things.
