Chapter 495: Lore


Because Qiao Zhiqing kept the formula of smokeless gunpowder in strict secrecy, when Britain imitated the expeditionary rifle, it could only imitate the mechanical structure of the expeditionary rifle, but it could not thoroughly study the gunpowder formula in the bullet.In the end, through the Royal Academy of Sciences, a yellow explosive called trinitrotoluene TNT was found as a replacement, which is also an early yellow explosive in history, which is more powerful and stable than black gunpowder.But this explosive also has a disadvantage, that is, when it explodes, it will emit a large amount of smoke that burns the eyes and leaves a large amount of residue in the trajectory.In order to improve this defect, the Enfield Ordnance Factory finally reduced the proportion of explosives in the bullets to a minimum through continuous improvements.Doing so reduces the concentration of smoke and keeps the trajectory relatively clean.However, the consequence was that the power was greatly reduced, and the effective distance of the expeditionary rifle was more than 1,500 meters, while the effective distance of the Enfield rifle remained at about 1,000 meters.To compensate for the difference in accuracy and ammunition power, the Enfield Arsenal doubled the magazine capacity of the bullets to fit ten rounds at a time.The gunpowder used in the expeditionary rifle was a combination of the formula that was continuously improved by later generations, and smokeless gunpowder was developed directly after several steps.The change of this gunpowder is the use of nitrocellulose dissolved in ether and ethanol, added an appropriate amount of stabilizer to make it gum, and then pressed into flakes, cut into strips and dried and hardened.And there is no residue after combustion, and no or only a small amount of smoke is emitted.However, the firing range, ballistic straightness, and shooting accuracy of the projectile can be improved.The most important point is that this smokeless gunpowder can be used as a bullet for an expeditionary machine gun.And the British Enfield Arsenal, although it solved the problem of bullets for rifles, could not solve the problem of bullets for machine guns., the barrel will soon be clogged with debris and exploded.Britain, France and other European powers have not been slow to retaliate against Qiao Zhiqing on a large scale, and what they are afraid of is the power of the expeditionary machine gun.Because of the extremely strong speed of the war horse, Naxun Choktu risked his life to eat this Russian army.After tens of thousands of war horses fell, the remaining more than 40,000 war horses still stepped on the flesh and blood of their companions and rushed within 300 meters.But after only rushing within 300 meters, Lao Maozi used his Enfield rifle to form an impenetrable net of fire, and as many cavalrymen as he came up would be killed."

The era of cold weapons is over, accept your fate" Andrei looked at the Mongols who were almost going crazy with a sneer, leisurely took out vodka from his pocket, and leisurely drank at the corpses of the Mongolian cavalry in front of him.The heavy rain stopped abruptly, and the storm on the grassland came and went quickly.The sun pierced through the dark clouds and enveloped the entire earth, like the holy hands of heaven, caressing the wounds of the earth."

Commander, the brothers have more than 10,000 dead and wounded, let's withdraw" Tuji Rimutu commanded Xie Tu Khan's troops to attack several times, but when they went up, they were knocked down by bullets."

Alliance leader, the brothers can't hold on any longer.The casualties are too great, let's withdraw" Mozhgen, the banner lord of the Chechen Khan, also crossed his horse to find Naxun Choktu, and roared and pleaded.The banner owners of other tribes also returned in disarray, and no one could bear such huge casualties.The man was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, and he clenched the hilt of the knife at his waist against the Russian position, and he was undetermined for a long time.More than 50,000 people can't even help more than 3,000 people.It feels like a piece of fat in front of you, and you can't eat it when you open your mouth.Originally, he also wanted to completely annihilate this group of Russians and give some confidence to the soldiers of Outer Mongolia.Now it seems that there is no hope of revenge, if there is no advanced weapon, no matter how many people there are, they will die in vain."

Come, Mongol bastards, come and taste our stakes," the Russian position sneered, and when they saw that the Mongol cavalry had temporarily halted their attack, their faces were full of smug smiles."

Brothers, the Mongols can't beat us, and the Chinese can't.After the Mongols are repulsed, we will immediately go to Guisui City to drink wine and eat meat" Andrei also whistled at the Mongolian cavalry in front, and turned around and cheered proudly at his subordinates.At this moment, dozens of black shadows suddenly flashed in the sky, as if dark clouds were obscuring the sun."

It's the flying fish monster of the Huaxing army is coming, it's the flying fish monster of the Huaxing army is coming" The Mongolian cavalry all raised their heads and exclaimed, they knew that the Huaxing army would not hurt them, and they were not as scared as when they first met."

Order the cavalry, all ready."

Naxun Yuketu hurriedly gave an order to the banner owners, he had also seen the bombs falling from the flying fish monster, and knew that the Huaxing army would definitely bombard Lao Maozi fiercely.All the banner owners also hurriedly straddled their horses and ordered the cavalry to prepare for the attack, and only waited for the Flying Fish Monster to complete the bombardment, and then they moved randomly."

Shoot quickly, shoot that thing down for me" Andrei looked at the reaction of the Mongols, although he didn't know what was flying in the sky, but his intuition told him that this thing was not good, so he quickly asked his men to shoot at the sky "Bang, bang, bang" Almost all the spears in the Russian position were pointed at the sky, and bullets whizzed out from the muzzle.But the Enfield rifle had a flat fire range of just over a thousand meters, not to mention the shooting method into the sky.Because the high altitude is the troposphere of the air, the resistance of the vortex current to the warhead is very large, and with the gravitational pull of the earth, the warhead does not fly high.The bullet is not a rocket and cannot be accelerated.The acceleration of the bullet is accelerated in the barrel by the instantaneous thrust of gunpowder gas.The rifling only gives the warhead rotation to ensure that the trajectory is straight, and does not allow the bullet to accelerate the impact at high altitudes.Therefore, the firing distance of the Russian soldiers at Tianming was only more than 300 meters, while the altitude of the Huaxing Army Aviation Squadron was more than 500 meters.At present, the aviation squadron of the Huaxing Army has not only been expanded, but has also been expanded from a squadron to a brigade, and Feng Jie has now been officially promoted from squadron leader to group leader.It has more than 300 pilots, bombardiers, and maintenance troops, and has more than 100 newly developed nitrogen airships.The airships had come on the heels of Naxunktu's cavalry, and had not been seen.The attack on Russia was supposed to be launched a long time ago, but a thunderstorm just now delayed the trip.As soon as the heavy rain passed, the airship climbed back to a safe altitude.Andrei commanded his men to shoot into the sky, but the eggshells fell like heavy rain.Because of the acceleration, when it reaches the ground, it is as powerful as a bullet that has just come out of the muzzle.For a while, dozens of soldiers on the position were killed by their own bullets, and this was only the beginning of the nightmare.This time, Luo Sanyuan contacted an airship of an aviation squadron to come over, and there were 30 of them, each carrying more than 100 explosives.As the airship flew over the Russian positions, the bombardier instantly threw the bombs in the basket one by one.After a while, dense black dots fell from the sky, and the more they became, the larger they became, gradually turning from black dots to an oval iron ball the size of a watermelon."

Withdraw, quickly withdraw" Andre looked at the airship in the sky trembling with his binoculars, and he no longer had the calmness and composure of Fang Cai.He was the first to see what was thrown on it, and although he didn't know whether the power of that thing was huge, it was also fatal to be hit by him.At this time, only the Huaxing army was equipped with mortars, which had extremely high requirements for explosives.The explosives developed by European countries are far from meeting the requirements for making such shells, so Andrei has never seen the power of such a thing.I only felt that it would crush people to death, but I didn't know that after this shell landed, there would be a violent explosion.When the soldiers heard Andrei shout like this, they didn't have time to get the horses up from the ground.The black bomb that had fallen from the airship had already hit the ground.In an instant, a wave of heat rose into the sky, making a deafening explosion.Knocked over the entire ground that had just rained heavily and threw out a huge trench.Airships had long surrounded the Russian positions in the sky, and explosions sounded almost simultaneously on all sides of the Russian positions.More than 3,000 cavalrymen in Russian positions, as well as war horses, were completely shrouded in flying shrapnel and there was nowhere to hide."

Devil, you are devils" Andrei looked at his men who were blown up by the cannonballs, and his self-confidence was completely shattered for a moment.Those who were a little delirious did not dodge, and opened fire fiercely into the sky with their guns.Finally, several shells fell in his direction, and in an instant explosions rumbled in all directions.Andre only felt the ground shake with it, and before he could react, the huge impact instantly tore him apart and completely disappeared into thin air.The Russian position seemed to have fallen into the Shura Hell, black smoke enveloped it, and all the deadly shrapnel flew everywhere.Under the impact of shrapnel, the cavalry and war horses were hit by stones and were blown apart in an instant, and blood flowed everywhere.The wails mingled in the position, and the neighing of war horses resounded through the grassland.The Russian soldier, who was the executioner just now, has now become a fish on the board, and no one can smile smugly.After only a dozen minutes or so, the explosion gradually subsided.The shadows on the ground lifted, but the battlefield was still filled with smoke.The Mongols were also completely shocked by the lore in front of them, and although they had seen the Huaxing Army's airships dispatched when they were in Xinjiang, they avoided it from a distance.At such a close distance, watching the cold-blooded killing in front of you.Everyone's hearts rose and fell with the sound of the explosion, and their throats were dry and they couldn't help but swallow saliva."

Living Buddha, what kind of army are the Han people in now" Naxun Qiuketu forgot to give the order to attack, and maybe he didn't need to attack at all.After the smoke cleared, no sound was heard on the Russian battlefield.The green grassland seemed to be painted red, completely stained red with blood.All that was left was a pile of steaming cooked meat, and there was not a single intact corpse
