Lord of the People: I Rely on Cheating To Fight For Hegemony

Chapter 1078 The research direction of the flintlock

Looking at Kong Ming's eager eyes for knowledge, Qu Mao let out a long sigh. Since Xinping's pigeons had been rushed from Yidao to Liandao with great fanfare, Qu Mao didn't think about going back immediately.

Therefore, after arranging for Kong Ming to speed up the research results of solidifying the paper-wrapped bombs, Qu Mao and Kong Ming had lunch together in the zero-level residence temporarily built in the experimental field.

Kong Ming still persevered in asking Qu Mao about the new research and development of muskets. The annoyed Qu Mao had to take out a pen and paper from his backpack while eating, ready to continue talking to Kong Ming about the flintlock.

After all, in the actual firing test in the morning, when Kong Ming's paper-packed bomb was successfully fired, the cheating system prompted Qu Mao to be rewarded with 50,000 cheating points.

For Qu Mao, who currently lacks cheating points extremely, the gain of 50,000 cheating points is considered a huge gain.

Seeing that Qu Mao had already taken out a pen and paper, Kong Ming immediately put down the food he was eating, and sat on the other side of the table like a tireless student, waiting attentively for Qu Mao to speak.

Qu Mao said while eating: "Kong Ming, it's really beyond my expectation that you can obtain the research and development results of paper-wrapped bombs so quickly.

I think the gun factory, artillery factory, and ammunition factory should be built as soon as possible. Just like what I just told you, after the planning of these three new military factories is completed, I can discuss the further development of guns with you. Improvement direction. "

Kong Ming nodded and said: "My lord, the current research on guns and artillery is mainly focused on the production of original matchlock guns for the musketeers and the artillery mounted on warships.

Before you made your request, my lord, my subordinates have already contacted Mr. Meng De. Mr. Meng De has already started to build a gun factory and artillery factory in Liandao. They are only manufacturers of paper-wrapped bullets. Communicate.

The first two factories are expected to be officially put into operation on June 1.

Before I chatted with you, my lord, on the afternoon of April 12th, I thought that the research on guns and cannons would stagnate for at least three to half a year, but after talking with you, I made a breakthrough in just 5 days, so This time, I would like to continue to communicate with you, my lord. "

Qu Mao nodded and said: "For the new military factory, you should communicate more with Mengde, Xuande and Zhongmou. I think expendable strategic materials, weapons, equipment, clothing, muskets, artillery and ammunition should all be There are special military factories to produce.

It is said that although Zhao Pan invested 600,000 Army special forces soldiers on the battlefield of the Red Leaf Principality, nearly 500,000 special forces soldiers were not equipped with exclusive equipment according to our requirements, which shows how low the production efficiency of our military factories is. "

Kong Ming smiled and said: "My lord, there are always fighters first, and then there are well-equipped fighters. These things will be deployed with Xuande later, don't worry.

Let's discuss the improvement of muskets. This is where all the subordinates' thoughts are now. "

Qu Mao glanced at Kong Ming and said, "Kong Ming, the appearance of paper-wrapped bullets is definitely an epoch-making progress, but our current matchlock guns are still fired with a fire point, so our muskets can only be regarded as matchlocks." gun.

From what I've seen in another world, I think once you develop the trigger in my original picture, maybe we'll be able to form a flintlock.

One of them is called a spring, which can be formed by winding a thin iron wire in this way. "

While talking, Qu Mao began to draw on the pen and paper.

Kong Ming looked at Qu Mao's drawing, and picked up the goose feather fan again. After fanning it a few times, Kong Ming nodded and said, "My lord, I think my subordinate Spring can develop it, but what does this have to do with the flintlock gun?" Woolen cloth?"

Qu Mao said: "Kong Ming, if there is a spring, we can consider the way I told you to use the firing pin to ignite the gunpowder."

Kong Ming quickly shook the goose feather fan a few times and said, "My lord, my subordinates still don't understand how to ignite gunpowder by impact."

Qu Mao thought for a while and said, "What if there is a flint where the firing pin strikes?"

Kong Ming asked suspiciously: "My lord, what is a flint and steel?"

Qu Mao sighed again, pulled Kong Ming up, and said, "Come on, follow me outside."

Pulling Kong Ming out of the zero-level residence, Qu Mao found a random place.

Liandao itself is a stone island with no vegetation, so there are stones everywhere outside. Qu Mao looked around, found a fist-sized stone, squatted down and knocked on the stone on the ground continuously.

After knocking more than a dozen times, sparks popped out.

Kong Ming said with bright eyes: "My lord, Mars! There really are sparks coming out, it's just..."

Qu Mao interrupted Kong Ming's words with a wave of his hand, stood up, called a musketeer soldier, and said, "Kong Ming, you only see that the probability of sparks from this impact is too low, but you must learn to diverge your thinking."

A musketeer soldier ran to Qu Mao and saluted Qu Mao.

Qu Mao took the original arquebus from the Musketeer soldier, and asked the soldier to give him the close-fitting dagger.

Afterwards, Qu Mao put the dagger back on the barrel of the original matchlock gun, and slammed it down, causing countless sparks to fly around.

Kong Ming's eyes lit up.

Qu Mao hanged up a few more times, and each time a long string of sparks ran around. After scraping a few times, Qu Mao returned the original matchlock gun and dagger to the musketeer soldiers, and let the soldiers go back to continue training.

After sending off the Musketeers, Qu Mao said: "Kong Ming, I don't know the exact principle, so you can study it slowly.

I can only tell you that if the gunpowder is ignited by firing, our musket can advance to the stage of the flintlock.

In the future, it can be considered to load bullets from the rear end of the barrel, and the material of the bullets should gradually change to metal bullets, and then a continuous fire gun can also be developed. "

Kong Ming shook the goose feather fan in his hand quickly, the light in his eyes became more and more terrifying, and he said repeatedly: "My lord, it makes sense, it does make sense.

You have opened another door for your subordinates, and your subordinates will study it as soon as possible, and research the so-called flintlock gun as soon as possible. "

Qu Mao nodded and said: "There is not enough manpower, so we can transfer from the army, or from the researchers of the Ministry of Science and Technology, or from the university. Let's double the size of the current Musketeers first."

Kong Ming said excitedly: "Thank you, my lord, I will make the flintlock gun first, and then consider these issues.

Please rest assured, my subordinates will arrange everything.

Please forgive me, I can't continue to accompany you, and I still have to hurry up to study the flintlock.

Don't hang around outside, hurry back to Yi Island, isn't Lord Xinping still reporting the battle report of the Red Leaf Principality to you? "

Seeing Kong Ming who turned and left, Qu Mao shook his head helplessly.
