Gu Gu once again defeated some challengers and increased his collection. There were more and more rare oracle bones, while Teacher Wu Xie lost all his lost possessions. Although he found a Vulcan to help this time, Gu Gu
Gu told Wu Xie that even if it is Yinka, there are superiors and inferiors. Don't think that you have mastered the secret of Yinka casually. The borrowed flame is an external force after all.
Gugu accepted a new card from Teacher Wu Xie. It is said that this card is for fortune telling, and Gugu was very satisfied with it.
When Wu Xie went back dejected after losing the game, Wu Hui was always happy by his side.
Wu Hui (laughing): Start having fun.jpg
Dong Zhurong came to Chongli and said with emotion that Hongzhou is really magical. The serious and ancient divination activities in the past have now become entertainment. The key is that it is quite fun.
"This little chicken is a bit powerful. What kind of strange beast is this? It can actually play cards. Is it a divination-type strange beast like the enlightened beast?"
Wu Hui was curious about Guzi's race throughout the process. He knew that although this chick looked like a chicken, it could not actually be a chicken. However, the strange beasts among birds that could do divination looked like what he had seen.
After all, there really is no one who can match up with Gu Zi.
Of course, after Wu Hui met Azai, Yuzai answered his doubts.
"That's the Golden Crow, it should be."
Yu Zai's answer was unexpectedly concise, but Wu Hui blinked and was stunned for a long time before continuing to laugh.
Oh, it turns out to be the Golden Crow.
No wonder my own flames can't compare to it!
"That's the Golden Crow? He looks so stupid. I didn't expect him to be so good at playing dominoes."
Wu Hui and Ruan Zai met and exchanged greetings. Lehehe introduced himself to Ruan Zai, and said that Master Yuzi had heard that you had played tricks on Taiyuan, and he was very happy about it.
Yu Zai also sincerely thanked Chuan Yuzi. Without this great qigong master, how would he have such a great skill as Taiyuan now?
It was also thanks to Chi Songzi. Chi Songzi and Chuan Yuzi were good friends. Chuan Yuzi developed Taiyuan's phase, but his apprentice could not learn it. Chi Songzi recommended the dog Azai at that time. Chuan Yuzi wanted to use Taiyuan.
Humiliate Chi Songzi, if Yu Zai succeeds in learning and gains a reputation, it means that the magic taught by Yu Zi is awesome. If Yu Zai fails in learning, it means that Chi Songzi is rubbish.
No matter what, it’s not a loss, it’s a good friend like Chisongzi who was tricked.
However, Chisongzi also had the idea of having sex for free, so the two old men hit it off immediately, I give it to you for free, and you do it for free.
These are all bad habits learned from Huang Di.
After Wu Hui and Yu Zai exchanged greetings, he wanted to see Yu Zai's skills, but Yu Zai declined him temporarily and said that he still had a lot of work to do. If they didn't mind, they would come with him.
Ruanzai took the two fire gods to work in the factory. He summoned Danzhu, Yijun, Guangchengzi, Dui and other famous craftsmen near the ironworks and told them that the next work was to
The drawing of rifling begins. The lathe that has been continuously upgraded before is prepared for this time.
The earliest artillery was muzzle-loading artillery, but the artillery that really started to progress was breech-loading artillery. Muzzle-loading artillery was more like an incompletely evolved firearm.
Now, Yuan Zai made up his mind and started to carry out the next step of production research. The topic was to conquer and manufacture a qualified breech firearm. So after arranging the rifling work, he also arranged the next research direction.
The manufacture of breech-loaded firearms requires powerful finishing technology and powerful metallurgical technology. In the next few months, it is estimated that most of the time will be spent near large iron smelting plants and explosive plants to facilitate the equipment of firearms.
Upgrade development.
Of course, cast iron artillery had just been produced at this time, and all the craftsmen were dumbfounded when they saw the design drawings of the breech firearm.
And Yijun said it bluntly!
He said that the technical skills required for this are too high. Unless several Vulcans serve as tool makers and rely on the Vulcans' meticulous control over flames and high temperatures to perform processing operations, their current level of craftsmen will not be able to do anything about it.
.
"I think it's better to install a front-loaded artillery piece. Why not wait for a rear-mounted cannon?"
"Why do you rely on Vulcan! Young man, you have to have some dreams. If you defeat the Vulcan gods and create these things, you will be the god of fried skin! Look, I have even thought of the name of the new god for you."
Yuzai spoke encouraging words to Yijun, but several other craftsmen were a little surprised, and even showed a hint of joy:
“It turns out that front-loading artillery is a dead end for development?”
When Yijun heard this, he immediately became unhappy.
Only then did Yuzai realize that these craftsmen were competing with each other. Yijun was criticized by Yuzai unconsciously because he developed a front-loading cannon, and he expressed his displeasure on the spot.
After all, why can’t something I invented work? Gou Azai said that the front-loaded fried skin has no development prospects, but I think it is not the case.
Yi Jun commented unhappily to everyone, saying that you should speak with your conscience in mind. What was placed on Huan Dou's grave was not a kicker, it was real gunpowder and gunpowder smoke. For things like artillery, don't insert cannonballs from the muzzle.
, how to "speak arrogantly"?
But others are happy!
Let you fill the cup!
Yu Zai told the great craftsmen that the research on firearms cannot be stopped. Let’s not talk about whether they can be made or not. The current situation is to see the principles and have a concept in your mind. I am not asking you to start working on it now.
The technology you have mastered can then be handed over to the employees of the large iron smelting plant for development and assembly. You are all scientists with strong military and technical capabilities. What you have to do is to continuously innovate equipment and production tools.
The five research topics proposed in the previous article, photothermal, electroacoustic and magnetism, have now been studied in several ways.
Optics has been studied since a long time ago, various atmospheric phenomena and the refraction of light, so that the birth process of glasses and the convex and concave lenses of glass have been published in books in Hongzhou, and are now a must-have for children in school.
Read the text and understand various optical phenomena, so that you will not be deceived by others. If you say you saw some fairy land, most of it is a mirage. After all, there is no fairyland that can move on its own.
Moreover, optics and time are also closely related. Tugui and sundials have been developed for a long time. The "Dianrui clan" even appeared in the Central Plains in advance. This is what Emperor Fangxun told Yu Zai, saying that after the sundial was passed on, he gathered some
people, and gave them clan names. The Dianrui clan was originally a clan that managed Guibiao for the monarch from the Xia Dynasty to the Zhou Dynasty.
Up to now, mechanical force has begun to be produced, and products like clocks have long been put on the research agenda by Yu Zai, but they are still far away from being made. Danzhu calls them "mythical items that cannot be realized for the time being."
The next optical item is the long-awaited microscope. Of course, there is also the electric light bulb, which is also the result of the cooperation of light and electricity.
In thermal science, the technology of controlling fire is used in smelting, which is a production application; the air is heated and rises, making the hot air balloon fly, which is a meteorological application; in winter, vegetables are cultivated, greenhouses and pits are used, and the sun and fire are used.
Using light and heat to maintain the indoor temperature, vegetables can also be grown in the cold season. This most basic greenhouse technology was actually invented in the Song Dynasty, but it had already been tinkered with by Yu Zai, who had been thinking about greenhouses.
Needless to say about electricity, Hongzhou now has electricity, although the operation of this power plant is not very stable.
Sound began to become popular with the help of the power of electricity. From the primitive shouts and trumpets of ignorance, it gradually entered the field of acoustics in later generations, although it only glimpsed the tip of the iceberg.
Yu Zai held a mobilization meeting and announced that two days later, he would give a speech in the large open space in front of the large iron smelting plant and clarify the next work tasks of the iron smelting plant.
Chong Li and Wu Hui were watching the whole process. Although Chong Li didn't work in the ironworks, he often came to help, so he could still comment on the technical production here, but Wu Hui couldn't understand it.
, but it doesn’t matter, he was just enjoying the whole process, making others think he understood
Wu Hui saw the elm cannons placed aside. The goods were piled up. These elm cannons were consumables and were simple to produce. They could be scrapped after just a few shots. The low cost also led to low prices. The demand for orders from the Central Plains was huge.
And they also wanted to imitate it themselves. This thing is not difficult to make, and the formula of black powder is not a rare thing. Emperor Fangxun ordered so much at one time, which was really to give his son-in-law enough face.
And Di Fangxun also understood that since it was going to be produced, he had to bring back enough goods. It would not hurt to take it apart to see the structure. Although Yu Zai said that this thing is not difficult to construct, you only need to be able to pull the iron hoop.
It can be built, but Di Fangxun doesn't understand the principle of emission. He is always curious about whether there is a fire dragon hidden inside.
Another cast-iron cannon has been built. Zhongyuan has ordered five cast-iron cannons. This first cannon has been tested and its power is perfect. It is even better than the first two Hongzhou cast-iron cannons. After all, the third cannon is being made.
By that time, the operators had become very skilled in their techniques, and it was reasonable that the accuracy had improved inexplicably.
Of course, what interests the two fire gods, Chong Li and Wu Hui, are other types of firearms.
Yu Zai took those firearms to the testing site and gave the two Vulcans a live demonstration.
"This big box that shoots out a lot of rockets is called a swarm of bees. When I went to the Western Wilderness this time, I heard Huan Dou say that the Gonggong clan created cavalry. You may not know the power of cavalry. It is the natural enemy of infantry, so use
This thing is extremely effective for restraint.”
When the Yiwofeng was designed in ancient China, its purpose was to defeat cavalry troops. However, the flaw of this thing is that it takes a very long time to reload. On the battlefield, when every second counts, it is basically a disposable consumable and cannot be fired repeatedly.
If you can shoot repeatedly, I suggest you ignore the situation before fighting, scan the shuttle first, and then shout "I am invincible tomorrow"
The next one was a small pipe. Ruan Zai threw it to the side of the road. Suddenly, the thing started to make a weird popping sound, but it did not explode. It was followed by a violent smoke. The two Vulcans looked at it in a strange way.
, Yu Zai explains the principle of making smoke bombs.
It's actually very simple, just replace the charge with white phosphorus. This thing will spontaneously ignite when exposed to fire, and then thick smoke will emit.
Then the third type is a strange throwing cannonball. After this thing is thrown out, it suddenly burns violently and generates a huge amount of flames. The two fire gods did not notice the difference at first, until Sun Zai poured a layer of water on it,
It turns out that this thing likes water and burns even more violently!
"It's Shizhi. I got some from near the Central Plains before. There are also some in the southern mountains, but we don't have them here. So I didn't make many of them, just a dozen or so for fun. I heard before that there are some in the Western Wilderness.
Jishui Ze, according to rumors, the area around that lake is full of these things."
"This gadget is called an incendiary bomb. The fire this thing creates cannot be extinguished by ordinary water."
Yu Zai made three types of firearms, basically used to deal with cavalry. Of course, to truly defeat the nomads who have just entered the world stage, the most important thing is to master the machine gun technique.
When you hold the machine gun, you will find that the opponent is particularly enthusiastic and kind.
The big stage of mountains and seas, if you have a horse, you can come.
"Gonggong? Let him see that he is just a baggage bearer. Let him see! He is the water god Gonggong, and he is the nomadic lord. I tell him, don't let me see him in the Western Wilderness. See
He must take his hood off and slap him in the face!"
"How many horses does he have that dare to line up with me?"
