If the temperature is not cooled, the iron barrel will deform or the inner diameter of the muzzle will increase. In this case, the bullet will be fired as if it was not fired.
If the barrel is not cleaned, gunpowder residue will accumulate on the inner wall of the barrel, and eventually it will even clog the barrel. If not, the barrel will explode.
These are all things that have to be done. Su Yin hopes to directly produce automatic firearms, but the technology and materials at hand are very limited. In order to accommodate the output and combat effectiveness, he can only improve the performance.
Discounted.
As a result, the soldiers fired no more than a thousand rounds of bullets, and the entire Yantian Camp went silent. Designed from high in the air downwards, more than a thousand rounds of bullets naturally could not cause too many casualties. Even with the bombing just now, the ground
The 3,000 Baiyue troops on board were not exhausted.
Oh shit!
The officer of the Yuantian Camp roared angrily, and couldn't help but feel an extremely angry feeling in his heart. He was obviously in a very powerful position, but he beat the opponent hard, only to find that he was fine. This feeling was indeed uncomfortable.
But no wonder, most of the artillery guns designed and manufactured by Su Yin at this time can only be regarded as barely trial products. Their ability to play a role on the battlefield has exceeded their expectations. Most of them were brought here for this purpose.
It shows power rather than being practical, it is powerful but has limited lethality and hit rate, and its applicable conditions are restricted. These are all things Su Yin had expected before his death.
"Forget it, let's continue lighting the oil cans!" the officer shouted, "This thing is still real. I smashed several cans down, and now there are dead trees underneath. They are so dry that they can withstand burning. Those bastards are still there.
Don’t let me cry for father and mother. We have to practice the new gadgets given by the Duke when we go back."
The officer gave an order, and a bunch of kerosene cans were thrown down from the hot air balloon at the Dingtian Youtian Camp. Then a batch of rockets were shot down, and a large forest suddenly turned into a sea of flames.
This kerosene fire attack was very effective, even more effective than the shelling just now, but unfortunately, the kerosene attack only lasted a short while, and the soldiers were frustrated by the attack on the officers.
Report, "The fire oil tank is empty."
Likewise, there is nothing we can do about it. Although the cannon on the hot air balloon is an improved version and is much lighter than the original version, it is still a big burden for the hot air balloon.
With such a trendy heavy weapon, one can only bite the bullet and bear the pain and drastically reduce the number of fire oil tanks carried.
After all this fussing, the drama of the Yutian camp was almost finished. After the fussing with the kerosene jars, the soldiers picked up their still warm muskets again and continued to try to load and shoot. However, the Baiyue people below passed by.
After one round of shooting, I have learned to hide myself through the terrain without any teacher. In addition, the hit rate of this kind of musket is really not high, so the meaning of subsequent musket shooting is relatively limited.
The Yuetian camp had exhausted all its resources, going back and forth many times, and changing weapons three or four times. According to the soldiers' visual inspection from the sky, the number of Baiyue troops eliminated was approximately between 500 and 700.
Although this is already an extremely proud figure for the armies of other countries, compared with the previous results of the Yantian Camp, it does pale into insignificance.
