Take the Warehouse To The Great Ming

Today the students were taken to the workshop, and everyone had to learn how to make lead shots with molds.

The large mold is very heavy, and the younger students work in pairs to melt the lead and pour it.

After the mold is opened, there are lead bullets with threaded patterns. The tail of this lead bullet is hollow, and a small cone-shaped wooden block must be inserted into it.

Fang Xing picked up a lead bullet and put it into the gun, and said: "The gunpowder deflagrates in the barrel, expands the air, and pushes the wood forward. The hollow lead bullet will expand, so that the lead can be in contact with the barrel. The gap is smaller, the range is longer, and the accuracy is higher..."

"Well, you look at these molds yourself and think about the composition of the molds."

This kind of bullet is actually prepared for the rifled gun. The problem of rifling has long been solved, and it can be rotated with a simple stick knife.

It's just that this processing method is time-consuming, so Fang Xing first prepared to build a sniper hundred households.

When the class was over, Fang Xing took the students to the barracks.

Zhu Zhanji has arrived, and he is talking with Zhu Fang by the side of a bronze cannon.

Seeing Fang wake up, Zhu Zhanji asked curiously: "Brother Dehua, what is this thing called?"

"Cannon, artillery!"

Fang Xing called the students over and asked Zhu Fang to introduce the artillery.

"This is a bronze cannon with a caliber of 90 millimeters and a barrel length of 1.5 meters. It weighs 382 kilograms without the frame. It shoots iron bullets."

Zhu Fang slapped the cast iron gun mount and said, "The gun body is fixed on the gun mount and connected to the frame. This not only buffers the recoil of the shot, but also facilitates dragging. It can be dragged away with just one horse, urgently. It’s okay to use human drag."

The students curiously stroked the artillery, taking turns to ask Zhu Fang some specific questions, as well as the range and lethality.

"Brother Dehua, should we try?"

Zhu Zhanji also couldn't restrain his curiosity, and wanted to test the power of an artillery.

Try it!

Fang Xing asked people to place multiple human-shaped targets in the distance, very densely placed.

"Get out of the way!"

A team of gunners specializing in testing artillery came. After saluting, they turned the muzzle skillfully and then charged.

Finally, an iron bullet was loaded.

Fang Xing introduced to Zhu Zhanji: "This is a fixed charge. The goal can be achieved by adjusting the angle of the muzzle."

A fuse was inserted into the medicine bag from the fire door, and the gunner ignited it with a thin red iron rod, and then...wait!

The fuse sneered and burned, and immediately ignited the medicine packet.

"boom!"

The iron ball was pushed out of the muzzle and flew out directly.

Everyone gradually raised their heads following the trajectory of the projectile, then lowered their heads, and then watched it hit the target.

There was a crackling sound, and the wooden targets seemed to have encountered a prehistoric monster. The sawdust was splashed by the iron bullets, and the fragments were flying everywhere.

"Boom!"

After a muffled sound, the iron bullet that rushed out of a path in the target landed and then bounced again.

"This is a second kill."

Just as Fang Xing was speaking, the bounced iron bullet once again destroyed a target, finally pierced through the target array, and lost power before slowly stopping the violent performance.

Zhu Zhanji opened his mouth and couldn't speak.

The students and teachers are even more unbearable. Some of them have been so frightened that their legs are weakened, and they will not be fooled by grasping the talents around them.

"Go, let's see the effect."

Fang Xing smiled and invited Zhu Zhanji to see the lethality of the artillery.

When he waited for the target array, he saw those targets destroyed by iron bullets, and Zhu Zhanji was shocked: "Brother Dehua, if you are equipped with a large number of these weapons and matched with the rifle array, then I am Ming..."

Fang Xing said reservedly: "The artillery has the most damage to the dense formation, whether it is cavalry or infantry."

At this time, Ma Su asked: "Teacher, what if the enemy forces spread out the formation?"

Fang Xing smiled and said, "That's simpler, the loose formation can't break the musket array."

Xu Fangda frowned and said, "Teacher, but the cost of copper is not small!"

Copper is currency, and copper is Daming's strategic resource.

Fang Xing smiled slightly: "A big copper mine has been discovered in Jiaozhi as a teacher."

"This is really timely rain!"

Everyone felt that the appearance of this big copper mine was too timely, only Xie Jin and Huang Zhong, both of them silently watched Fang Xing huyou.

"With artillery, then Da Ming will have the means to defeat the enemy remotely. Whether it is offensive or defensive, artillery will dominate the battlefield and become the **** of the battlefield."

Fang Xing looked at these excited faces and continued: "This is a practical case of Fang Xue. By calculating the pressure of the chamber, the tolerance of the bronze, and the degree of wear, the best charge was finally obtained accurately. , This is Fang Xue!"

A feeling of pride spread among the students. Many of Zhu Fang's insights just now can be understood. This was unimaginable before.

Can the Four Books and Five Classics teach people to understand the properties of these substances?

can not!

Can the article teach people to put these substances through a series of changes and finally combine them into a war machine?

can not!

So what can Confucianism do?

These students took the initiative to think about this problem for the first time, and Jie Jin also smiled at his beard, only Huang Zhong, he was thoughtful.

"Teacher, my disciple understands."

What surprised Fang Xing was that Li Ermao was the first to realize this.

"Teacher, my disciple thinks that Confucianism can teach me the truth, the truth of how to behave and do things."

Li Ermao said with piercing eyes: "But he can't teach me how to resist foreign enemies, so my disciples feel that truth can only teach people's hearts, but to be strong, they can only..."

"Ahem!"

Fang Xing saw that Zhu Zhanji had come from the final point of the iron bullet, and interrupted Li Ermao's words with a dry cough.

"The truth, but what Fang has learned and taught is also the truth."

Fang Xing said: "It's just that what Fang teaches is the principle of all things, and man is just one of all things!"

"good!"

Xie Jin clapped his hands and applauded: "Dehua said that everything is in it. We must not only learn our own truth, but also need to...what does that sentence say?"

"explore the world!"

Ma Su reminded.

"Right, right, right!" Xie Jin said happily: "Dehua said that the world of exploration, and this world includes the sky and stars above us, if we can know the mystery, the old man will have no regrets in this life!"

Fang Xing smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Xie must have this day, and Dehua should help."

Zhu Zhanji also said something uncontrollably: "Mr. Jie is willing to stay out of poverty and cultivate talents for me, Da Ming, and he will be blessed."

This is a promise!

Promise as the future prince!

Xie Jin's eyes flushed, and he arched his hands: "Thank you for your kindness. From now on, the old man will be my Da Ming incarnation, and I will die without regrets!"

Fang Xing said haha, "There is also a double charge test below~www.NovelMTL.com~ everyone stay away."

This interruption made Zhu Zhanji puzzled, but Fang Xing did not explain.

"The prince of a country, you must think twice before you speak."

Fang Xing dropped these words, and then said to the students: "After trying this shot, everyone will go home today. It's a holiday."

Why is it on holiday?

Without mentioning the joy of the students, Jie Jin is a little puzzled.

But it was already loading over there, so everyone stared at the muzzle...

"boom!"

The sound of this gun was louder than the previous one, and the recoil was not small. The entire gun mount was retreated more than two meters away.

When the black spot appeared, everyone couldn't catch up to it, and could only watch the shell directly pass through the target and then disappear.
