Zhong Jinwei was not polite to him, and directly told him the principle of the flintlock gun.レ&spes;レRead the full text
This thing is really not that difficult, the key is that it is unexpected. Fan Jun nodded repeatedly when he heard it, and he felt like he was eager to try it on the spot.
After Zhong Jinwei finished speaking, he told Fan Jun: "Eunuch Fan, as far as I know, someone in the Jiangnan area is already researching this flintlock gun. If you research it before them, you will be remembered in the history of firearms in the future.
In one stroke, Fan Jun of the Ming Dynasty invented the flintlock gun and threw the matchlock gun into the trash can, completely changing the way war was fought."
When Fan Jun heard this, his face turned into a blooming flower, which was really brilliant.
As a eunuch, one of the people they envy most is not Wang Zhen or Wei Zhongxian, but Zheng He, who is a figure who will go down in history!
Fan Jun's eagerness to test immediately became even more impatient when Zhong Jinwei said this.
He turned around and ordered his subordinates who were following him to gather together those who had something important to do. Those named were all his capable craftsmen.[
Zhong Jinwei laughed secretly, took out a piece of paper from his arms, handed it to Fan Jun and said: "This is the head of the gun that is going to be installed on the muzzle of the gun. I call it Mitsubishi Bayonet. You let the craftsmen build it. As for the bottom,
If it is fixed with the mouth of the gun, let the craftsmen figure it out. I have two requirements."
When Fan Jun heard this, he quickly stretched out his hands to take the drawings and said with a smile: "Master Marquis, please tell me."
Zhong Jinwei stretched out a finger of his right hand and said at the same time: "First, the Mitsubishi bayonet must be made of the strongest metal, such as steel. It would be best if it can easily pierce the armor of Jianlu's white-armored soldiers."
Fan Jun nodded, knowing that the biggest enemy of the Ming Dynasty was Jianlu, and the new army formed by Zhongxing Hou also used Jianlu as the imaginary enemy, so he was not surprised by this request.
Zhong Jinwei then extended a finger and said: "Second, it is best if the Mitsubishi bayonet can be easily disassembled. If not, it is best to wear a knife sheath to avoid accidentally injuring one of your own."
This second point is easy. Fan Jun nodded and said: "Don't worry, Lord Marquis, this bayonet matter is easy. We just need to explain it to you."
Zhong Jinwei smiled and said, "That's good."
Fan Jun thought that Marquis Zhongxing had already finished his explanation, so it was time to leave. He could also quickly start developing the flint device.
Thinking of this, he led Zhong Jinwei towards the door.
Unexpectedly, Zhong Jinwei did not follow him, but stood there and waved to him: "Eunuch Fan, where are you going?"
Fan Jun was stunned, and immediately turned around and came back a little embarrassed, saying, "We thought the Marquis had to attend to other important matters."
Zhong Jinwei wanted to laugh a little, but he held it back. He said to Fan Jun: "I also have an idea about Fo Langji, and I would like to trouble you to improve it."
When Fan Jun heard that Zhongxing Hou had a way to improve it, he was immediately overjoyed. He quickly called a few of his men and quickly moved a Buddhist machine in front of Zhong Jinwei.
Zhong Jinwei also saw this Fo Langji when he was at Lu Xiangsheng's camp, so he just stood there and took a look without squatting down.
He pointed to the groove on the mother gun of the Folang machine and said to Fan Jun: "The advantage of the Folang machine is that it has multiple muskets, so it doesn't need to be loaded every time it fires. In other words, it is fast, but its disadvantages are
Is it easy to leak air?" [
"The Marquis is wise." Fan Jun's attitude was that he did not dare to offend Zhong Jinwei before, but now he truly admires Zhong Jinwei and praises him heartily.
Zhong Jinwei could also feel the subtle change in his attitude, but he didn't care, and still explained: "Although the groove of the current Fo Lang machine's mother gun is slightly tilted, so that the secondary gun can fit in. Wang Peng."
"My subordinate is here." Wang Peng immediately stood up from behind Zhong Jinwei and responded with clasped fists.
"You take a blunderbuss and put it in." Zhong Jinwei ordered.
Wang Peng immediately walked over, easily picked up a blunderbuss, and put it into the groove easily.
At this time, Zhong Jinwei squatted down, pointed at the joint and said, "Come and see here."
Regardless of whether Zhong Jinwei lets Fan Jun look here, he can't stand any longer. Fan Jun followed Zhong Jinwei's example and squatted on the other side of Fo Langji.
"This Folang machine is pretty good. The gaps here are not big. But no matter what, there are still gaps here, right?" Zhong Jinwei asked, looking at Fan Jun opposite.
"Master Marquis is right." Fan Jun replied, while thinking whether Marquis Zhongxing wanted to solve this problem?
"Then why don't you completely solve this gap?" Zhong Jinwei asked, raising his voice a little more and emphasizing his tone.
Fan Jun was stunned for a moment when he was asked. The complete solution would be to seal the whole thing, but then how could he let it go?
Zhong Jinwei saw that Fan Jun still didn't understand, so he had to explain clearly: "Look, why don't you extend this raised part to cover the entire groove?"
Fan Jun still didn't understand. At this time, he was reminded by Zhong Jinwei, as if he could catch something, but it was still separated by a layer of paper. He was so anxious that he wanted to scratch his head and head.
When Zhong Jinwei saw it, he had no choice but to explain further: "Look, if we change the way the mother gun is made, instead of making it with grooves like this, it can be directly made into a sealed belly, and the child gun can be inserted from the back.
If we go, will there be no air leakage problem?"
Zhong Jinwei's idea came from the cannons he saw in movies and TV series later in life. The method of inserting them from behind gave him inspiration.
In fact, it's pretty much the same. The method of using the Folang machine's two-piece blunderbuss is the same as that of later cannons. It's just that later generations used cannons with primers, but now they use a big blunderbuss.
The difference is that the weight of the Franco machine must be heavier than that of later cannons.
When Fan Jun heard what Zhong Jinwei said so clearly and misunderstood, he immediately slapped his forehead in an incomprehensible manner and said: "Marquis Zhongxing has a great idea. Our family will have people experiment with this kind of Folang machine right away."
There is no doubt that this is easy to say, but there are still many technical difficulties in implementation. For example, the problem of smoothness when the musket enters from the back, the inner diameter of the barrel must be the same, otherwise it is likely to explode inside.
There are also issues such as how thick the rear barrel should be, how thick the gun should be, ignition and how to deal with recoil, etc., all need to be reconsidered.
When Zhong Jinwei heard what Fan Jun said, he stood up and clapped his hands and said: "I'll leave it to Eunuch Fan. It's best to experiment with what I just said as soon as possible. For materials and other things, just ask the Ministry of Industry for help. If there is insufficient manpower, there are still
If you don't have enough experienced craftsmen, you can ask the emperor for help. We must make it as soon as possible."
Fan Jun nodded hurriedly when he heard this. In this way, not only would the military situation in his hands be greatly expanded, but he would also be able to obtain the honor that other eunuchs dreamed of. His heart was even more anxious than Zhong Jinwei's.
When Zhong Jinwei walked out of the military battle, it was already dark. He had to sigh and said: "There is really not enough time. It will be dark again in the blink of an eye. We can only go to the Jinyiwei side tomorrow." Please remember.
