Ming dynasty grand dude

They constantly conduct shooting experiments on the amount and depth of rifling.

But never used rifled guns for actual combat.Tanlang sitting alone remember to bookmark this site, the update here is really fast.Perhaps it was at that time that the musket was already able to conquer the world.

Until the outbreak of the war between the United States and Britain, the Americans beat the British with rifled guns.

At this time, Europe was shocked by the impact of rifled guns on war, so it began to change equipment on a large scale.

Regardless of whether it is a rifle or a gun, it is not difficult to make it.

During the colonial period in the United States, many people made their own guns.

What they use is the simple manual rifling broach, but it is more troublesome to make.

"Shuashuashua..." Zhang Xiaogong first drew a draft on the sand table, and then asked Zhu Houzhao to draw on the straw paper.

Soon, a special cannon and the cross-section of the barrel were drawn! ,

Chapter 6 Scientific research expert Zhu Houzhao, preparing for the journey Jade Chihu

Zhu Houzhao stared blankly at the structure of the cannon, feeling a little inexplicable.

What are the slightly curved concave lines on the top for? !

"Ever played with a spinning top?!"

Seeing Zhu Houzhao's bewildered expression, Zhang Xiaogong instantly found the sense of superiority of the later generations.

Zhu Houzhao nodded silly, isn't this a plaything? !

"When the top spins, the faster it spins, the more concentrated the center of the circle will be. Have you noticed this?!"

As soon as the little father-in-law said this, Zhu Houzhao was shocked.

Jumping up, he said to Zhang Yong: "Quick! Find a spinning top for Bengong! I want it now!!"

Zhang Yong had a bitter expression on his face, where can he find a spinning top in such a hurry!

However, looking at the virtue of his own prince, Zhang Yong could only respond in a hurry.

Fortunately, it is not far from the living area, and the children in the families of master craftsmen always make toys with spinning tops.

After a while, Zhang Yong really found it. Zhu Houzhao asked Zhang Yong to smoke a spinning top after he hadn't played for a long time.

"Crack~!" Zhang Yong didn't hesitate, and spun the top with a whip.

Zhu Houzhao jumped up and down anxiously: "Not fast enough! Hurry up! Lao Zhang, hurry up!!"

What about Zhang Yongneng? !I could only grit my teeth and pump it with a "crack, bang, bang~".

As the top turned faster and faster, Zhu Houzhao observed carefully for a while before nodding.

"However, the faster the spinning top, the more stable it is! Brother Hu, why is this so?!"

How the hell do I know? !

Young Master Zhang looked depressed, I am not an encyclopedia!

This thing involves problems like centrifugal force, and I'm not a researcher on this.

"I just discovered this situation, but you need to explore why this is the case."

Hmm... If you can't answer it, leave it to the brat to mess around with.

"Why are there arrow feathers on the arrows?!"

Zhang Xiaogong didn't wait for the bear to continue asking questions, and continued: "Because the ancients didn't know this work, but they vaguely discovered it!"

Zhu Houzhao heard what the young man said, and dragged him to the shooting range quickly.

Poor Zhang Yong had to help the young man find a bow and arrow, and he shot several arrows at the target with a "buzzing..." sound.

There is also a special mark on each arrow, so take a look when you find it.

Sure enough, after flying out, it spun several times.

"The concave line in the barrel is for this purpose."

After returning to the casting drawing department, Grandpa Zhang began to draw the cannonball drawing.

Now that the rifling is drawn, and there are tools to do it.

Then the conical shell is naturally more aerodynamic than the round shell.

"The cannonball is conical, we can refer to the arrow cluster! The arrow cluster is slender and sharp, in order to better penetrate the air."

Zhang Xiaogong certainly cannot explain what "aerodynamics" and "fluid mechanics" are. He can only use other examples.

"There is also a spinning top, focus on one of its strengths!"

As he said that, Grandpa Zhang had already drawn the shapes of bullets and cannonballs in later generations.

The part that embeds the warhead is so narrow that it can fit into the barrel of the gun.

"This...how does this ignite?!"

Zhu Houzhao was dumbfounded when he looked at it, while Mr. Zhang pondered for a while, then added an eye to the tail of the shell.

He said softly: "A twist can be stuffed here, and the rear of the barrel can be thickened..."

"This is the rifling scraper, and that's why I asked Your Highness if I could cut the barrel!"

Mr. Zhang is now starting to draw the rifling scraper of the gun barrel, sighing in his heart, fortunately, he has visited the gun museum.

There are simple hand-made rifling scrapers made by the early American colonists, as well as rifling scrapers for the barrels of small-caliber artillery.

But after a while, the shape, cross-section, scraper of the gun bore... etc. of the entire cannon were drawn one after another.

Although it still looks very crude, it does not prevent Zhu Houzhao and others from understanding it under the explanation of the little father-in-law.

So Zhu Hou took care of the structure and accessories, and he knew the cannon designed by the little father-in-law.

The newer type of artillery adopts breech loading.

There is a breech block at the rear of the gun, and the entire shell will be inserted into the rear of the barrel.

The breech block has a small gap that allows the twister to stick out and be ignited outside the breech block.

"If that's the case, then the second shot will be fired much faster!"

Zhu Houzhao looked at the cannon with bright eyes, and murmured: "And the overheating problem can also solve most of it!"

Hearing this, the young man couldn't help but look at the brat with admiration. His Royal Highness really has a lot of research on artillery.

At a glance, he could see the benefits of changing to this kind of artillery, and he even started to take a pen and paper to draw something with his head down.

The little father-in-law took a closer look and couldn't help being dumbfounded.

This kid actually gestured to the rifling scraper drawn by Zhang Xiaogong, and then began to design the rifling scraper of the barrel.

"Since it can scrape the thread on the barrel, it can naturally scrape the thread in the barrel!"

But Zhu Houzhao's eyes were shining, and he murmured in a low voice: "If it can be made, it will be faster to reload and shoot!"

"If the aim is better, then shoot farther... The crossbowman can almost be eliminated!"

At this point, Zhu Houzhao paused and shook his head quickly: "No! The entire army has to change clothes!!"

As Zhu Houzhao said, he began to fall into a slightly crazy state.

Chapter 6 Twelve: The imperial court earns His Majesty's gold, and Miru Tianlei needs to leave Beijing

He just cleaned up those noble boys in the academy, and the little father-in-law returned to Taolin with a comfortable body and mind.

Seeing the old guy Xiao Jing waiting for him with a smile, he couldn't help but sigh.

It must be the dog emperor and those old cabinet ministers, and there are some other things that can't be handled.

Whether it is Emperor Hongzhi, the elders of the three cabinets, or even the ministers of various ministries, they are actually very strong and powerful.

But their biggest problem is the limitation of the times and the solidification of thinking.

They feel that Ming Dynasty is entering a period of intense change, but their current thinking has not kept up with this change.

Just like in the early days of the reform in later generations, the debates in many cases look ridiculous after decades of smooth reform.

However, at that time it was a matter of life and death, and to criticize these things out of the limitations of the times was actually hooliganism.

After tidying up, the young man got into the carriage and followed Xiao Jing into the palace.

Miao'an Xiaofubao and Ashikaga Biyanermao naturally followed at this time.

"My lord, why is Your Majesty looking for you this time?!"

Miao An hugged the little grandpa's hand in the carriage, blinked her almond eyes and asked charmingly.

Hearing this, the little father-in-law couldn't help rolling his beautiful eyes.

I haven't entered the palace yet, how could I know? !

"I'm afraid it's a matter in southern Yunnan. There are some matters that require your son to come forward!"

On the contrary, Miss Ashikaga Tsuru's blue eyes turned slightly, and she also hugged the other hand of the young man.

Immediately, the handsome goose-egg noodles of the pitiful and vigorous Yu Chihu turned red all of a sudden!

Knock in!Labor and capital practice a child's kung fu! !

Mr. Zhang's grief and indignation are inexplicable, especially the two of them are turbulent, and the waves are coming again before they subside...

It made poor Xiao Zhang feel a violent storm in his heart, deeply sad at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean...

"Master, do you have a fever?! Why are you so red?!"

Miss Miao An seemed to sense something strange about her young master, she raised her head and asked worriedly.

Labor and management really want to make a fuss!Not a fever! !

"I'm... fine!!"

Almost gritted his teeth and popped out these words between his teeth, Ashikaga Tsuru, who had sensed something, giggled.

Those seductive blue eyes blinked at the young man.

"Young master, if you feel uncomfortable, you have to take medicine! Don't delay!"

Miao An was in a hurry and wanted to get up to call Yingzi to stop.

But he was grabbed by Mr. Zhang: "I'm really fine, don't worry!"

I am sick, but you are the medicine to cure me!

I need to take medicine, but it is you who need to take medicine!

But what the hell I can't eat... Mamai Pi! !

"Eat, eat, eat... Husband is fine, he~! He is too angry! Isn't it~?!"

Ashikaga Tsuru, the little goblin, blinked his watery blue eyes while speaking, and deliberately rubbed against the little eunuch.

Immediately, the young grandpa's heart trembled a few more times, his white teeth almost gnawed and he nodded.

He said with great grief and indignation: "That's the case! Sister, go back and make me some tea..."

Miss Ashikaga, you wait for me!

The Jade Chihu is very aggressive, and when I achieve great feats and leave the customs...

Must mention that the sharp gun will fight with you in all directions at night, and fight for [-] rounds. If you don't kill you, your heart is surging, and your love is like a tide, and you will never close your gun! !

"real?!"

Poor little Fubao Miao'an knows about men and women, but after all she doesn't have the old nun to teach her like Zulihe!

How did she know that her young master is only holding the heart ape so that he can not ride their two horses in anger...

"Puff puff..." Ashikaga Crane was struggling to hold back his laughter, and Mr. Zhang was very angry and helpless.

Miao An intuitively felt that something was wrong, but she didn't know what was wrong.

The carriage party quickly arrived in front of the palace gate, Xiao Jing showed his waist card and led the young man into the palace.

Miao An and Ashikaga Tsuru went to the two palaces as usual, while Zhang Xiaogong was led to the imperial study.
