Starting from the bright sword to engage in military industry

Chapter 481 Chapter 480, Minister Zhang likes it very much

Minister Zhang's question was quickly answered, because Hu Changyi personally let him see the firework cannon buried in the ground with only a layer of nozzle exposed.

"This...what is it?" Minister Zhang couldn't understand.

"Minister Zhang, you will understand soon! Hu Shuangyi, come here, this time you will do this job!" Hu Changyi directed an experimenter and said.

"Yes, captain!" Hu Shuangyi's left shoulder was injured, and his whole arm could not be straightened forward, and he couldn't lift his head upwards, but it was no problem to light a fire.

"Minister, let's go over there and look, you'll know right away!" Hu Changyi let Minister Zhang into the bunker of the sandbag wall and looked at the bomb fall area.Those who followed were Wen Chengding, Wu Shuanglong and the others, as well as the workers who came together.

"Okay, position No. [-], light the fire!" Hu Changyi shouted loudly.

"Okay!" Hu Shuangyi, with a cigarette in his mouth, walked to the No. [-] position as if setting off a cannon during the New Year, and reached out to ignite a fuze.

"Chi..." The core made of gunpowder wrapped in paper was burning rapidly, and Hu Shuangyi also quickly ran out for a distance of more than ten meters and looked back.

Well, just now, they already knew what these steel pipes were, and their mentality at this moment was no different from setting off firecrackers during the Chinese New Year.What mentality?The firecrackers were stuffed into cow dung and lit... Somewhat a little excited, a little nervous, and a little bit of anticipation.

"Boom..." Hu Shuangyi only felt a shock from the soles of his feet, a ball of flames erupted from the steel pipe in front, and a dark object flew forward.

"Chirp...boom..." Soon, the black object landed in the impact area of ​​the shooting range, rolled a few times on the ground, and then exploded.

"What did you do? It looks a bit like a firework bomb? But looking at the way that thing hits the ground, why is it similar to the ancient blooming bomb? Tiger Zun Cannon? Tiger Zun Cannon has a lot more projectiles, and the sealed projectile is a solid shell. It's..." Minister Zhang knows a lot.

"Hey, why don't you say that Director Zhang is amazing! The thing just now was actually made according to the appearance of the firework bomb. You are right, the round explosive part is really similar to the ancient round flowering bomb. It’s a bit like it. If the steel pipe is added with a bracket, it will really look like a tiger cannon.” Hu Changyi said beside him.

"No, what the hell are you doing? This range is a little bit the same as our grenade, right? The power is about the same. We already have grenade, so what's the point of rebuilding it?" Minister Zhang still didn't understand.

"Mr. Zhang, in fact, this steel pipe is made of discarded gun barrels. It can be regarded as waste for reuse. As for the power... Hu Shuangyi, give me the number [-] position, and then click the [-]th position, so that Minister Zhang can take a look." How powerful!" Hu Changyi decided to speak with facts.

"Minister Zhang, have you seen the group of wooden targets on the hillside? I set them up on purpose. There must be 50 wooden stakes within a diameter of 54 meters. It's like a small group of devils marching." "Hu Changyi said, pointing to a group of wooden piles on the hillside 300 meters ahead.

"Well, I saw it, do you want to blow it up once?" Minister Zhang asked.

"Hey, you'll know later!" Hu Changyi put it off a little.

"Chi... Chi..." At this time, Hu Shuangyi had already ignited two multi-barreled fireworks, one with 50mm and one with 82mm, both of which had a range of 300 meters.

"You kid, you're starting a mystery here with your uncle..." Minister Zhang shook his head and smiled.

"Tom, tom tom... tom..." At this time, six 6mm and four 50mm firework shells flew out of the launch tube one after another and flew forward.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp... Boom boom... Boom boom..." A series of explosions exploded in the impact area.From the point of view of the landing point, the accuracy of these fireworks bombs can be described as inaccurate.

The previous firework bomb exploded on the south side of the wooden pile, but the latter one went to the north side and exploded directly across a distance of 50 meters.Then, left and right, back in the middle... In short, the fireworks shells, which all rely on feeling, were blown up from the 50 meters where the wooden stake area was to 80 meters.

Then, when the smoke cleared, there were 10 shells in total, 6 small and 4 large explosive parts, which brought 7 craters of different sizes to this range.Why are there 7?Because there are three more that exploded in the air.

Looking at the 54 wooden stakes, there are only more than 20 left standing there.Because it is necessary to simulate the standing weight of a human being, the wooden stakes are only shallowly buried, and are easy to be blown down.

"Mr. Zhang, take a look at the bullet marks on the standing wooden stakes. The wood is clean." Hu Changyi handed his Zeiss binoculars to Mr. Zhang, and asked him to look at the holes on the wooden stakes. The bullet marks were all made by fragments.

"Let me see... You boy, how many steel balls did you use?" Minister Zhang saw that there were indeed bullet marks on the wooden stakes, and there were many bullet marks on each stake, and it was impossible to count them.

"Well, you have to ask these three people. They made it up. I just came up with an idea!" Hu Changyi felt that this matter was not a small achievement, so he decided to pass it on to his subordinates.

"Report to Minister Zhang, the 50mm one is used less, only three ounces, and the 82mm one is used more, with 6 liang of steel balls." Pang Guoshan said.

"There are probably less than 5 2000mm steel balls in one kilogram. If you use 3 taels for this one, that's 300 small..." Minister Zhang sighed.

"Well, the main reason is that we don't have enough glue, so we can't put too much steel balls in. If we can make a double-layer shell with interlayer, then we can put more!" Pang Guoshan said after listening.

"Actually, it is also possible to use cast iron to make the explosive part of the prefabricated fragment, but the weight will increase, and the amount of propellant needs to be re-measured." Wen Chengding said.

"The explosion part made of paper is actually not very good. Sometimes it will break when it falls to the ground. It would be nice to add an iron shell!" Wu Shuanglong said.

"Then continue to improve! The iron sheet can be driven out with molten iron. As for the round shell, it can be stamped with a mold, or let the fitters find a way to splice it. But the overall requirement is... simple production!" Hu Changyi said. made the final speech.

"Oh, by the way, Minister Zhang, do you think we need to mass-produce this weapon?" After speaking, Hu Changyi asked Minister Zhang.

"What do you think..." Minister Zhang dragged on for a long time, and then said: "If this thing is made too much, it will be put on the devil's marching road for a while? Then make it! Make more, first make 100 Come out of the box!" Minister Zhang said.

"No, there aren't that many scrap steel pipes!" Hu Changyi hurriedly stopped.

"No? Then tell the troops below that all captured steel pipes will be handed over! Hmm... You can also try making some with cast iron. The chamber pressure is not that high, and cast iron should be fine..." Director Zhang seemed to like it. This is a crude but powerful weapon.
