Confidentiality must be done well.
In fact, Ming Dynasty's corporate confidentiality work has always been good. Thanks to Emperor Zhu Da, who had been in and out of research and development institutions when he was a graduate student. He had never eaten pork but had always seen pigs walking.
As early as when Nanhua was founded, in order to obtain huge profits from steel, Emperor Zhu Da established an epoch-making corporate confidentiality system. Coupled with proper supervision, no corporate secrets have been leaked in these years.
Of course, the most critical thing is the confidentiality system.
As usual, when leaving the research room of Nanhua Arsenal, Liu Qingen first put his satchel in the basket and underwent a simple inspection. According to the confidentiality system of the research room, even a piece of paper cannot be taken out of the research room. The system is the system.
.
Although the paper could not come out, Liu Qingen was still thinking about the problems he had studied in the past few months while riding his bicycle home.
"Recoil, if the recoil is utilized, can the gun use the recoil to shoot continuously?"
This sudden idea originated from a shooting last year. When he was test-firing the rifle, because he did not hold the rifle securely, his shoulder was bruised by the rifle butt. It hurt for two days. Faced with the bruises on his shoulder,
Qing, an idea came to his mind - to use the recoil to automatically load the weapon.
After riding for almost twenty minutes, when he got home, he was in the utility room, his personal laboratory, as usual, staring at the drawings. In fact, the structure on the drawings was just a schematic sketch.
"The barrel should be floating. In this case, after the bullet is fired, the barrel and the bolt will recoil together..."
Soon the imaginary structure of the barrel and gun appeared in his mind. After describing it on the drawing, he frowned and thought about the structure of the machine gun.
This is a weapon that can fire continuously like a Gatling gun. What is the biggest feature of this weapon?
It is not as bulky as Gatling, and requires at least three barrels and a complex firing and feeding mechanism. It also requires a motor and a battery. It uses the energy of bullets and gunpowder gas to truly achieve continuous shooting.
"The biggest problem is how to circulate it. If you want to feed ammunition, you can use the bullet belt of the Gatling gun. Then what?"
While thinking about it, Liu Qingen played with the bullet chain containing bullets. The gaps between his fingers turned into the cartridge chamber. When he turned the bullet chain, the bullet was pressed between his fingers.
"This is very simple. You only need to add a guide slope on the bolt to drive the bullet teeth..."
Just like this, Liu Qingen drew drawings one by one while demonstrating the structure of each component in his mind.
Of course, in the end, he still needs to integrate those components, manufacture the parts according to the drawings, and then put them together.
This is completely a process of "making something out of nothing". From concept to actual object, this process is long, but sometimes, an inspiration comes.
An accidental discovery, an occasional flash of inspiration, often leads to unexpected gains.
Although Liu Qingen didn't know whether his idea could become a reality, he has been working hard for nearly a year.
Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration!
He himself doesn't know whether Liu Qing'en is a genius, but one thing is certain, he works hard enough. In the past year, he stayed in this utility room for five or six hours after get off work every day.
While drawing drawings, he used simple machine tools to manufacture parts. In the past year, more than a ton of unusable parts were stored in this utility room. Most of those parts are now scrap metal and scattered on the tool table.
Many of the parts were also scrap metal, but he never gave up.
All of this was done in his spare time. Amidst the harsh milling sound of the machine tool, after one part was formed, without any heat treatment, Liu Qingen combined it with several other parts. Finally, a brand new design
The gun machine appeared in front of him.
"Okay, after firing, the instantaneous impact of the recoil of the barrel pushes the bolt, and the bolt continues to recoil, and then..."
Looking at the barrel, bolt and other parts on the table, Liu Qingen tried to use them to simulate the firing and retraction process of the weapon.
"That seems to be the case. It's almost time to give it a try!"
…
Three days later, in the early morning, Liu Qingen rode his bicycle and carried a box directly to the suburbs. He did not go to the shooting range of the arsenal. He did not need to make it known to everyone before he succeeded.
After riding all the way south for more than an hour, he came to the beach. The wind was very strong. On the beach full of gravel, Liu Qingen moved a box from the rear body of the car, which contained the product he had just made.
Sample gun.
But it only took him a minute to mount the gun on the bipod, then took out a bullet chain, disassembled the receiver, and loaded the bullet chain. Liu Qingen looked a little excited. He was lying behind the machine gun.
, looked at the sea, and pulled the gun bolt hard.
"Wow!"
At the moment of loading the gun, he first took a deep breath, then held his breath, looked through the gap on the sight scale, three points and one line, aimed at the sea, and pulled the trigger.
"Ba..."
The moment the gunshot rang out, Liu Qingen felt the recoil of the gun body. Different from the direct recoil in the past, he could feel the vibration and inertia of the gun as it moved in the receiver. That inertia was driven by the spring.
Moving forward and backward.
"Ba, Ba, Ba..."
Gunshots!
Continuous gunshots rang out.
The moment he pulled the trigger, Liu Qingen was stunned for a while. He couldn't believe it was true, but the six Huangliangmeng bullet casings flying down next to the gun reminded him that it was true.
"Really, really successful, successful!"
Yelling excitedly, Liu Qingen pulled the trigger again.
Gunshots rang out on the beach again. Although the gun body was shaking violently, it was even a little uncontrollable. Although the accuracy of the bullet seemed to be a bit poor - the water column on the sea surface was widely spread. But the bullet casings kept being thrown out.
And the sound of gunshots told him the reality - this gun can shoot continuously.
The gunfire from the beach spread far away, all the way to the coastal road. When the military police patrolling the road heard the gunfire, they couldn't help but froze, and then stopped their horses.
The continuous gunfire sounds very special. It is different from the "Zizz" sound of Gatling gunfire. This continuous gunfire is like dozens of rifles firing continuously.
shooting.
"Lee An, listen, with this gunshot, is someone training?"
Sun Tao asked with a frown.
"It's a bit like a platoon gun, but it shoots very neatly. No matter how well-trained a person is, he will definitely shoot so neatly. It's like, like..."
Before Li An could think of the words, Sun Tao adjusted his horse and said.
"Did you hear that there are troops training here? Come on, let's go over and take a look!"
As soon as the two of them rode horses to the beach, they saw a guy lying on the beach holding a strange-looking thing...
"What kind of guy is he using?"
Listening to the continuous gunshots, the two people couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
They were soldiers. Of course they had seen Gatling guns, but they had never seen a machine gun like that.
"Good guy, this guy shouldn't have stolen this thing, right?"
When they said this sentence, the two people looked at each other, which was like walking - a military medal!
Why are they so excited?
Because when they were serving in the army, they had never seen anything like this, something so small, but capable of shooting continuously like a Gatling gun.
Even if someone wanted to try it out, it would be impossible to just stay here and have fun on the beach.
Although they were very excited, they still quietly approached the guy. When they were about to get close to the guy, the two of them pounced at the same time...
