Chapter 257: Use steel on the blade

The next day, when Xia Fan walked into the mechanization bureau, even his

steps were a bit vain.

"Why, you didn't have a good rest last night?" Mo Yun looked at him with some

care, "Although the alchemist's energy is very good, but lack of sleep will

still cause fatigue."

"Thank you for your concern." Xia Fan rubbed his forehead and said. It was

obvious that he just took out his ears last night, but he felt that he had

spent a thrilling night. After being affected by the reverberation of

hurricane surgery, whether it was an earpick or a copper pom-pom, it seemed

that it was not a pierced ear, but a direct swim. Walk on the nerve endings.

The electric current flowing in the spine hits the brain wave after wave,

almost without stopping. I'm afraid that only the alchemist can hold on to

such a stimulus, and I'm afraid that ordinary people may not just roll their

eyes and pass out.

As Li said, this is indeed a good way to temper your character. Just... it's

too easy to trigger another chain reaction.

At least for Xia Fan, he felt that a whole new field appeared before him.

This reverberation technique will definitely become a technique that is

popular in the world in the future.

The only regret is that the tremor technique and the hurdle technique almost

contradict each other in order. He has not even been able to perform even the

most basic illusion technique, let alone the higher-end reverberation

technique.

Otherwise, he wants Li to taste the same.

Of course, these thoughts can only be recollected by themselves, and they will

only be relentlessly rolled when they are said.

"That's right, didn't you ask me where to use the remaining steel? I thought

about it for ten days and nights, and finally I had a complete idea."

Mo Yun couldn't help being in awe.

As the person in charge of the bureau, there must be many things that need to

be dealt with every day. Even so, the other party can spare time to think

about the issues he raised so carefully. This attitude is worthy of

admiration.

It's no wonder that this person is very knowledgeable in organs. I'm afraid

that apart from the listener's factor, his own non-slack thinking is also one

of the reasons.

"You say, I'm listening."

"I think Jinxia's top priority is still to improve the strength of the

princess army. Only when he becomes strong can he cope with the various

restraints of the court." Xia Fan muttered.

The iron stocks in the city are consumed in one smelting. Half of them are

used to make the production mother machine to improve the strength and

accuracy of the processed devices. How to use the other half has become a

critical issue. It can be expected that due to the control of salt and iron,

Jinxia will not be able to receive sufficient supplies for a period of time in

the future. This part of the steel will naturally be used on the blade.

"I agree." Mo Yun nodded, but soon showed hesitation again, "Your idea is a

firearm? Of course, steel is indeed stronger than wrought iron and bronze, and

it is an excellent material for guns, but that It's not something I am good

at. In the Ministry of Industry, this part of the industry is under the

exclusive management of the Bureau of Equipment."

"I did think about this aspect, but it has several difficulties that Jinxia

City cannot solve at the moment, so it can only be temporarily abandoned." Xia

Fan smiled, "Don't worry, although the new plan is far from the organ beast. ,

But it is a brand new thing at any rate, even if the mechanical bureau is

moved, there will be no advantage. If you are on the same starting line, I

believe in your ability more."

Under the recommendation, [\\mi\\mi\\reading\\app\\\\] is really good,

it is worth installing, after all, you can cache books and read them offline!

"Really?" Mo Yun also showed a slight smile. She believed that this was not

flattery, but an affirmation of herself-after all, in terms of professional

knowledge, the other party never joked. "Then what is your plan?"

"Air rifle." Xia Fan replied.

"Air... rifle?"

"Well, a long-range weapon that can kill the enemy without gunpowder."

Is the gunpowder gun good? Of course good. But if you want to open up the

generation gap, you must light up the line of chemical technology. Before the

invention of nitro propellant and thunderbolt primer, gunpowder guns were able

to meet the enemy in a dense array, in other words, they were queuing to

shoot. It would be fine if there were no sentimentalists, even if it was a

flintlock, it would be in a crushing situation against a feudal army dominated

by cold weapons.

But the situation is completely different with the agitated person. For

example, an alchemist like Ning Wanjun with a rushing formation, coupled with

Luo You'er's Willow Technique, can enter the queue with only one change of

bomb time. If the affected person gets close, the end of the densely arranged

soldiers can be imagined.

To solve this drawback, a more efficient rate of fire, power and accuracy is

the only effective way. Unfortunately, in Xia Fan's opinion, the only

specialty of Jinxia City is salt, and saltpeter is all dependent on purchase.

When these chemical products can be mass-produced, they don't know when it

will be. Obviously, it does not meet the principle of urgent matter.

Therefore, he chose another technical route.

A weapon that was once short-lived but soon disappeared from history.

"Go to my office to talk." Mo Yun said.

...

In a room full of drawings, Xia Fan recounted his ideas with paintings.

In the simplest terms, an air rifle uses high-pressure gas instead of

conventional gunpowder to shoot projectiles out of the barrel.

Its core component is the high-pressure gas tank and how to efficiently

inflate the gas tank. On the contrary, the gun itself has no difficulty, and

the structure is more concise and clear than the powder gun. Since the air

rifle has only a bullet without a shell, even the firing pin, retreat and re-

entry mechanism are omitted, and only a small spring can complete the

automatic loading of the bullet.

Naturally, the gas tank must be strong and strong ~www.mtlnovel.com~ to

withstand the high pressure. To achieve this, the iron sheet and copper sheet

must be made very thick, which will undoubtedly increase the weight of the

gun, and steel tanks are very suitable.

More importantly, this kind of tank structure is very suitable for mass

production with presses. In the past, people relied on the power of

waterwheels to drive heavy hammers to forge armor pieces. Now there are

Tiandong instruments and gear sets to drive steel hammers to fall repeatedly.

And momentum has increased more than ten times.

The one-piece ram gas tank and the one-way valve solve the most critical

energy storage part.

And another big problem-inflation, is the main reason for its elimination. In

order to fill a cylinder with high-pressure air, a soldier often needs to

press hundreds to thousands of times, in exchange for 20 to 30 shots on the

battlefield. Although it's easy to shoot in bursts, how refreshing the shot

is, and how embarrassing it is after the shot. In case of fighting one after

another, I am afraid that even the gas tank will not be able to rush.

Regardless of whether everyone has to carry a heavy pump when marching daily,

it is also a painful thing for logistics.

But Xia Fan had no similar troubles.

In his eyes, it is nothing more than equipping a large army with an alchemist,

and then carrying a Tiandong instrument version of the pump, which can achieve

rapid and unified loading during the rest period. For soldiers, it's just a

few more portable gas tanks.

Hearing the second half, Mo Yun's eyes became brighter, she never thought of

using air as a weapon!

Although this may sound incredible, if you think about it, it also contains

the law of law. In the previous classroom teaching, the other party regarded

the air as a real object. Since the real object can be compressed, it also has

the power to rebound.

When the trickle water is squeezed, it can push the windmill until the

sledgehammer is lifted. What about the gas as another type of water flow?

"Let's try it." She geared up.
