Chapter 1104
"Bang!" With a bang, someone in the distance had already called the target: "Again!"

Hearing the sound, Wei Congyi skillfully drew out his stick to "wash the gun", and then "prescribed medicine", "put lead", "send lead", "down paper", "feed paper", "open fire door", " Off-line medicine", "close the fire door", "install the fire rope", "open the fire door to aim".

The eleven standard movements were completed in one go immediately, like flowing clouds and flowing water.

Different from the imagination of most people in later generations, the fire gun players in the Ming Dynasty were all shooting indiscriminately. In fact, the Ming Dynasty had already summed up the eleven standard movements of the bird gun design.

Moreover, compared with the standard of Qi Jiguang's era, there are two more actions of "loading paper" and "feeding paper" to increase the airtightness of the firecracker and increase the initial velocity of the projectile.

But this time Wei Congyi held up the firecracker and didn't fire it. Instead, he rode his horse and quickly approached the target, reaching about twenty paces.

He picked up the blunderbuss and stretched it out from the side of the horse. The posture was quite similar to the "split mane shooting" of a bow and arrow. With a "bang", a projectile was shot towards the target.

"No. [-] middle school, punch through the armor plate!" The target reporter hurried over to have a look, then peeled off the armor plate from the target, and held up the target target.

"Okay, Congyi's hand is amazing!" Zhang Shun couldn't help praising him.

This immediately makes the blunderbuss seem simple, but in fact, due to the back and forth bumps on the horse's back, it is quite inconvenient to load or shoot, and it is impossible to complete this series of actions without good horsemanship.

Regarding this, Zhang Shun also hesitated a bit, and couldn't help asking: "I don't know if other horsemen have such abilities?"

"Don't worry, Your Highness King Shun!" Chen Changzhu couldn't help laughing, "Congyi and I have specially asked someone to try it."

"Anyone who can ride and shoot has already been able to let go of their hands. Even if they change into bird guns, they only need to train for more than ten days!"

"However, the power of the three-coin bird gun is too low, which is not conducive to piercing armor; the four-coin Lumi gun is too long, which is not good for charging, but precision wins!"

"Oh? So what if it's a short-barreled heavy gun?" Zhang Shun asked after thinking about it.

"The three-coin bird gun can be held in the hand, and the four-coin Lumi gun can be held on the shoulder. If it is slightly modified, it will be fine, too much charge is not conducive to horse fighting!" Chen Changzhu shook his head, regretting.

"This..." Zhang Shun had studied physics at least in his previous life, so he could understand what Chen Changzhu meant when he heard it.

When the power of the firecracker is small, the recoil force is also small, so the stock of the birdcrack of three coins and below is hook-shaped, which can be held and fired.

And the Lumi blunderbuss butt, which is like a four-coin charge, becomes the shoulder structure of later generations, which is convenient for the body to slow down the greater recoil.

If the caliber and charge of the firecracker are increased, it can certainly have greater power, which is good for armor-piercing, but it is not good for shooting immediately because of the greater recoil.

"However, the Fran cannon can make up for one or two, and it can barely deal with some well-armored opponents!" Chen Changji added.

"Anyway, the captives have always been good at galloping horses, and short in armor and weapons, so they are not to be feared."

"Northern captives are concerned about light illnesses, but Dongkou may not be like this!" Zhang Shun frowned when he heard this.

He still remembered Dorgon's elite white armor, the armor was shining like ice and snow, even more sophisticated than the Ming army, it was not an existence that could be compared with the captive equipment.

If the rebels want to seize the world, sooner or later they will inevitably have a decisive battle with Liaodong's Houjin strategy.

If you can't break the opponent's armor by then, it will be a bit troublesome.

Especially Du Wenhuan's two or three hundred armored heavy infantry recently made Zhang Shun's eyes shine.

"In this way, let's go back and test it to see how effective the short-barreled large-caliber firearm is on the horse, and then make a calculation!" Zhang Shun thought for a while.

Although it is bad to say that the recoil force is too large, if there is a riding gun that can break through heavy armor, it will be more prepared.

In fact, when Zhang Shun thought of this, he had a new idea.

If it is possible to design a double-type heavy-duty armor-piercing gun, it will greatly improve the situation of the rebels facing heavy-armored opponents.

"His Royal Highness King Shun, what do you think of my hand?" Wei Congyi rushed over early, holding the bird gun in his hand, and said quite proudly.

"Very good!" Zhang Shun nodded and said, "I understand, you are planning to replace the bow with a blunderbuss, but the rate of fire will be slower."

"It's more than a little slower?" Wei Congyi smiled wryly when he heard the words, "When the bird gun is loaded, the bow and arrow can shoot four or five arrows."

"However, the advantage of the bird gun is that one can hit far away, and the other is that it can pierce armor."

"How far can you hit? What is the effect of armor-piercing?" Zhang Shun couldn't help asking.

"If you use the Lumi blunderbuss, according to normal standards, you can hit people with sixty or seventy steps, and you can break through armor with twenty or thirty steps." Wei Congyi heard the words.

"However, if you encounter fine armor, it may be difficult to shoot through it at a distance of ten steps!"

What is fine armor?

The iron armor of the three hundred heavy armor servants under Du Hongyu's command is fine armor.

One is that the thickness of the nail is thicker than ordinary nails, and the other is that after cold forging, both the hardness and toughness of the nail have been greatly improved.

Armor like this can't be hurt by swords or arrows, even a four-dollar Lumi blunderbuss can hardly penetrate it at once.

If it is covered with a wet cotton armor or rolled quilt, it will be almost invincible.

Now that he has come to the school grounds, how can Zhang Shun return empty-handed?
He thought for a while and said to Wei Congyi: "How do you feel about using the blunderbuss on the horse? Is there anything you are not used to?"

"No, very good!" Wei Congyi asked with a strange expression, scratching his head when he heard the words.

Come on, I don't think you know what ergonomics and body mechanics are!
In Zhang Shun's previous life, he was at least a half-military enthusiast. He once argued with people on the Internet about the advantages and disadvantages of being unsupported and unsuspecting.

However, in the process of gossiping and chatting, he casually learned that shooting a small weapon requires professional knowledge of ergonomics and human mechanics.

What is "ergonomics" and "human mechanics", in fact, Zhang Shun also seems to understand.

But anyway, he was born in the construction industry, so he had a ready-made reference object.

For example, when designing a building, the height of the door, the width of the corridor, and the height of the steps are all based on the design of the basic data based on the size and structure of the human body.

So Zhang Shun took it for granted that the design of the fire gun should be the same.

With the design concept in mind, many issues that need to be considered immediately popped up in Zhang Shun's mind.

For example, how heavy the firecracker is, how long it is easy to carry, where the center of gravity is for shooting, and how much the recoil of the firecracker is within the range of the soldiers.

The structure of the gun stock is convenient for soldiers to use, the overall length of the firecracker is convenient for hand-to-hand combat, array, how to ignite the matchlock can not help but shine into the eyes of soldiers, and so on.

Just do what you want, Zhang Shun couldn't help turning his head to Chen Changji and asked: "Are there any carpenters and blacksmiths in the city? Find some for me, I'll be of great use!"
