Chapter 100 On Air Pressure in the Arms Bureau


Zhu Youxiao was suddenly stunned.

He had always talked about interests between countries.

In fact, it was the same between people.

If he enhanced the national power of the Ming Dynasty and allowed the ministers to also benefit, then of course the ministers would support it.

My own opinion.

He jumped up, kissed Zhang Yan and Duan Ying on the cheeks, and said, "As the ancients said, if a family has a good wife, all troubles will never happen.

If you are sincere, I will not deceive you.

These two good wives have solved a big problem for me." " The two girls bowed their heads shyly.

This emperor was good at everything, but he was a little unpretentious, in front of people, in the daytime, really.

Zhu Youxiao said: "You two will go see Wang Wan later.

Don't wait for me at night.

I won't have dinner in the palace."

He called Wei Zhongxian and went directly to the weapons bureau.

Sun Yuanhua and three others welcomed him in.

Zhu Youxiao asked: "How is the output of plate armor?"

Sun Yuanhua said: "Your Majesty, we can now make fifty pieces every day, and a total of more than two thousand pieces have been made."

Zhu Youxiao nodded: "Bi Qing, how is the progress of the new fire gun?"

Bi Maokang replied: "Back to your majesty, the rifled gun has taken initial shape.

According to what your majesty said, both the range and accuracy have been improved, and it is easier to load.

Your majesty's wisdom is vast.

Every time I think about it, I must think about it.

I am grateful to God for showing mercy to this Holy Lord for the great Ming Dynasty.

I even wish that I could become my teacher and gain a glimpse of the way of heaven.

Please pray for " Zhu Youxiao interrupted him embarrassedly: "Bi Qing, I just got my skill by chance.

I don't deserve your praise."

Now whenever he sees Zhu Youxiao, Bi Maokang will talk endlessly, and even wants to worship Zhu Youxiao as his wife.

Master, he learned the art of that instrument, which made Zhu Youxiao, who stole the achievements of future generations, very embarrassed.

He quickly asked: "Bi Qing, how many rifled guns have been made?"

Bi Maokang was very unhappy that his apprenticeship plan failed again, but he had no choice but to reply: "There are only about 500 finished products now.

Although rifling production has mechanical help, the speed is still very slow."

Zhu Youxiao comforted him and said, "It's pretty good.

Bi Qing, I have a few more ideas, so I can ask three of you for advice."

The three of them said they didn't dare.

Bi Maokang said: "Your Majesty's knowledge is like the magic of gods.

How can you use the word "ask for advice" in front of humble ministers and others?

Isn't it embarrassing for ministers to wait?

I feel that if I ask you to follow your majesty, Learn that” Zhu Youxiao quickly interrupted: "Bi Qing, let's not talk about this again, but we can discuss the details together.

My first thought is, can we load ammunition from the back?"

Mao Yuanyi stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, there are examples of rear charges in Fo Lang machine guns, but the effect is not very good."

Zhu Youxiao said: "Artillery and fire guns are the same, but there are some differences, because the air tightness needs to be increased, oh, it means to prevent the air from leaking out.

Fire guns should be easier than artillery, especially since we have stretched the rifling after."

Bi Maokang had also seen the rear-mounted Folan cannon.

He temporarily put aside his apprenticeship and thought about it carefully and said: "It is indeed the case.

Our new firecrackers can make the air leakage very little, and the air leakage of the artillery is more troublesome. ” Sun Yuanhua also said: "The back loading is easier than the front loading, and the front loading must be done while standing, while the rear loading can also be done while lying down."

Zhu Youxiao said: "What the three dear friends said makes sense.

If the fire gun is equipped with a rear-mounted gun, it will be much faster and more convenient.

On the battlefield, if the speed is increased by one second, it may mean a life."

The three of them all nodded.

The front-loaded muskets they are making now can be loaded and fired.

A skilled musket tester can only fire four times a minute.

On the battlefield, soldiers must definitely be slower than this speed.

Three times is considered a good rate. .

If it is modified and installed, as long as the soldier can fire four times a minute, that will be an extra five seconds.

Zhu Youxiao continued: "The same goes for guns and cannons.

Cannons can also try to improve the air leakage of the Folan cannon.

The second thing is actually mentioned before.

When the artillery is fired, the gun body needs to be pushed backwards. force, if we retract the gun barrel back and then return to its original position after firing, will this force be reduced and the gun will be more stable?

" Mao Yuanyi participated in the installation and modification of the large-caliber cannon on the Fu ship.

He said: "At that time, I used springs to reduce recoil.

His Majesty said that if used on the gun barrel, it seems to have the same effect. , and also makes the aiming of the artillery unaffected.”

Zhu Youxiao nodded.

He didn't know how artillery eliminated the recoil, but he had seen in movies that the barrel retracted after the shell was fired.

All I can provide is an idea.

As for how to achieve it, it depends on the people in the weapons bureau.

He added: "The third thing is a new thing, factory minister, bring it up."

Wei Zhongxian quickly took up the small glass tube in his hand carefully.

Zhu Youxiao took it and pouted, while Wei Zhongxian took the teapot and an empty teacup next to him.

In Zhu Youxiao's hand was a glass tube with one end sealed.

He first filled the glass tube and the tea cup with tea, then pressed the mouth of the tube with his hand, turned it upside down and placed it in the tea cup, and released his fingers.

Everyone watched the tea flowing out of the glass tube, and an empty tube appeared, but after a while, the tea stopped flowing out.

Everyone was confused and looked at the emperor, waiting for him to explain what he meant.

Zhu Youxiao said proudly: "Why doesn't the water come down completely?"

After that, he pulled the tube away from the water surface of the tea cup, and all the water flowed out.

The three people looked at the tube, but still didn't understand, so they looked at the emperor again.

Zhu Youxiao waited for their answer and looked at them, so the four of them started a staring game.

This was more embarrassing, and Zhu Youxiao had to ask again: "My dear friends, why doesn't this water flow down completely?"

Mao Yuanyi was young and said, "Your Majesty, because there is water in the cup."

But then he realized that this was not the case.

Sure enough, Zhu Youxiao pursed his lips again, and Wei Zhongxian took out a glass tube with both ends open, inserted it directly into the teacup, and looked at him with a smile.

The three of them were deep in thought.

After a while, Bi Maokang said: "Your Majesty, this example seems to be similar to that of a bellows.

If you close the air inlet and pump a few boxes hard, the force used will become stronger and stronger."

Zhu Youxiao was overjoyed and said: "Bi Qing's words make sense.

The two principles are actually the same.

I believe that there is something everywhere in our lives, which I call air."

In fact, the word "air" has already appeared in ancient China.

In Su Shi's "Longhu, Lead and Mercury", there is this saying: "When regulating the breath, rinse it and cook it, and then swallow it.

If it is not full, leave it in the mouth and wait.

The next time, the air is still sent to the Dantian, and it is often nourished by the mind
