Turbulent Times Chapter 1028: The first musket
Obviously, when Nie Xiaoyu said that he wanted to build a gun for Wang Junlin, he had prepared for a long time in advance. Very high-purity silver, a piece of copper with almost no impurities, etc., all kinds of materials are placed next to each other, which fully demonstrates this point.
Nie Xiaoyu's operation is so precise that humans can't do it at all, and the speed is very fast without any redundant operations, but it took a full half an hour to make a gun barrel. Wang Junlin watched from the side , I found that although it was only a smoothbore, I also knew that the accuracy of the barrel had at least reached the level of muskets during the First World War.
After two full hours, Nie Xiaoyu made all the spare parts one by one. Wang Junlin made each part next to him, and after a little research, he began to install it. After Nie Xiaoyu made the last part, he He already had a complete musket in his hand.
This is a musket between a rifle and a pistol, without any paint, pure steel primary color, looks stiff, feels cold in the hand, but at this moment Wang Junlin's heart is hot.
In addition to his own excitement because he was holding a gun again, this kind of enthusiasm is more about the scene when his army is equipped with muskets and sweeps the world, so his heart is full of enthusiasm.
Of course Wang Junlin knows that guns are actually not high-tech. After researching for a period of time, I ordered related machinery such as lathes to manufacture the guns.
Wang Junlin even knew that because of the precision of the black fire medicine formula, bullets were more troublesome to manufacture than guns.
The gun in Wang Junlin's hand was about eight inches long, and it was a middle-barreled musket with a caliber of fifteen millimeters.
Because Nie Xiaoyu built all the parts himself, the inside of the gun barrel was polished extremely smooth. Wang Junlin held the gun barrel and looked up to see through the light, and found that the inner wall even had reflections.
Because the spring steel has extremely high requirements on the material of the steel, the only bad thing about this gun is that the elasticity of the power reed is much worse than that of later generations of guns. This age is enough.
This gun uses black fire. The powder is propelled and fired. After building all the parts of the gun, Nie Xiaoyu directly started to build the bullets, which are actually the shells and bullets.
Because the bullet case will appear after the bullet is shot out, but when making the bullet, the bullet can only be made with the bullet case first.
In order to save the process, the material Nie Xiaoyu chose is silver that can be directly used to make bullet casings and warheads without any processing procedures.
It took ten taels of silver to make a hundred silver bullet casings and silver solid bullets in one breath, and made a hundred small bullet bottoms and fires with specially treated copper, and installed them with He took out the thunder mercury used for firing, and then used the powerful instantaneous momentum of the lathe to press the primer to the bottom of the shell case.
The next thing Wang Junlin can also help is to artificially pour the granulated black gunpowder made by Nie Xiaoyu in advance into the bullet case, and press it firmly, and finally use the lathe The instant strong pressure and Nie Xiaoyu's extremely precise operation skills pressed the cartridge case and bullet head together.
Wang Junlin knew that even if someone witnessed Nie Xiaoyu's process of making guns and bullets today, and had the same lathe machinery, it would be difficult to make a gun, let alone bullets.
After the bullets were made, Wang Junlin loaded the bullets into the gun on the spot and tested the gun. He was pleasantly surprised to find that the gun was much more accurate than the one in his image, but the range was only 80 meters, which was effective. The range is fifty meters, and there is no lethality beyond fifty meters.
In terms of shooting range alone, it is not even as good as some strong bows. Wang Junlin knew that it was because the power reed was not flexible enough, and the main reason was the lack of spring steel.
However, compared with the bow and arrow, this gun is naturally much faster to complete the firing, and the speed of the bullet is far from what the bow and arrow can compare.
More than forty meters away, a rabbit that Nie Xiaoyu had prepared in advance was shot in the waist by Wang Junlin as soon as it got out of the cage. The caliber of the gun is larger, and the diameter of the bullet is naturally larger.
Although the range is somewhat disappointing, this is the first gun made by Nie Xiaoyu after all. Wang Junlin believes that when Nie Xiaoyu makes a second-generation gun next time, the problem of range will be greatly improved.
What's more, even with this gun, if he fights within 50 meters, even if he faces strong men like Spring and Autumn Messenger and Sword God, he will have the confidence to injure the opponent, at least he will be able to establish an invincible position up. As for the warriors under the master, as long as he grasps the timing of his shots, he can kill them in one shot.
With the guns manufactured, how could there be no hand grenades and landmines, which are much easier? After Wang Junlin followed Nie Xiaoyu to see the power of grenades and landmines, he left Nie Xiaoyu's private research and production field satisfied. The next thing is to mass-produce grenades, landmines and guns. For Wang Junlin, there is still plenty of time, and such sharp weapons will not be used for at least three years.
In the next three days, Wang Junlin and Nie Xiaoyu conceived and deduced their overall plan and plans and plans for some specific tasks. Xiao Yu went to fill it up, and Wang Junlin left Snake Island three days later.
However, he did not return to Fanyang County, but continued to go in the northeast direction, which is the direction where Goguryeo is located, so naturally he did not go with a ship, but took a hundred warships of all sizes. The officers and soldiers of Qianshui Division left.
Yuan Gai Suwen, the unlucky child, has been in Wang Junlin's hands for more than a year. He has suffered too much. It is really unreasonable to return his son to others, of course, the premise is that Wang Junlin controls the two islands that Yuan Taizuo promised him.

"Current?"
The guards around Zhang Tiangang and Wang Junlin are listening to a dark-skinned young man in his early twenties explaining some basic knowledge of sea navigation, but only Wang Junlin can understand what this young man said, especially some new words You know, everyone else feels like listening to a scripture.
