Destiny Only Han

Chapter 476 Han Xin: Touched by ing...

"Flintlock?"

Liu Bangxin picked up a flintlock gun in his hand, gestured twice in his hand, and found that even the gun flower could not be saved, and expressed his emotion with disgust:

"Trash, I thought it was a good thing! It's not as good as a fire stick! Huh? There's iron on it? What a waste, it's rubbish!"

"Hahahaha..." Liu Ying couldn't help laughing anymore, the laughter was full of sarcasm aimed at Liu Bang, which made Han Xin, who almost blurted out the same evaluation as Liu Bang, secretly feel refreshed.

Then, Liu Ying became extremely happy and sad.

"Father, I was wrong, don't, don't... My brother is here, save me some face!"

Liu Bang, who held up his flintlock gun, was stunned for a long time before he finally understood who Liu Ying was referring to as a brother. When Liu Bang looked over narrowly, Han Xin's cheeks flushed and he was speechless. expression:

"Who is the brother? When did I change from an elder brother to a brother?"

"Don't beep, if you're a brother, don't beep..." Liu Ying said without turning her head, and immediately jumped to snatch the flintlock from Liu Bang's hand.

If it was an arquebus, he would be able to play with it, but the bolt mechanism of the flintlock gun was expensive, and if it was broken, it would be troublesome and expensive to repair.

Hearing Liu Ying's words, Han Xin scratched his head and kept silent. Although Liu Ying's words were very rude, they are brothers. If brothers are polite, are they still called brothers?

What's more, Liu Ying was being beaten at this moment because he wanted to hate Liu Bang for him, so he was chased and beaten by Liu Bang who became angry from embarrassment.

What does this mean?
Brotherly love is greater than father-son love!
For a moment, Han Xinxin felt warm, and his eyes slightly moistened when he looked at Liu Ying.

Love and righteousness are worth a thousand gold!Go to the mountain of swords, go to the sea of ​​fire!What regrets are there for a bosom friend, what regrets are there for sacrifice... Han Xin stood aside, silently singing a song that Liu Ying once sang in his heart.

Liu Ying looked at Liu Bang with contempt: "Don't underestimate this fire stick, it's a big killer... Don't believe it, Dad! Have you ever seen the Sky-Changing Monkey? This is something similar to the Sky-Changing Monkey. The gunpowder burns, firing projectiles like arrows to kill the enemy!"

"Arrow?"

Liu Bang shook his head. Originally, he was full of anticipation when he heard the word Chuan Tian Hou, but he found that it was just like a bow and crossbow, so the emotions he had just mobilized disappeared instantly.

You must know that the workshops of the Han Empire recruited many skilled craftsmen left by the Qin Dynasty. For example, there are more than 20 pieces of crossbows that can penetrate iron armor within 1 steps. There are more than [-] pieces in the Weiyang Palace alone! (Note [-])

Therefore, this Laoshizi flintlock gun is just a child's plaything!
Liu Ying raised her eyebrows, took out a box made of cardboard from the bottom of the wooden box, twisted out a Minnie bomb from it, showed it to Liu Bang, and then said:

"This is the arrow shot from the flintlock gun, bah, it's the bullet! Dad, isn't your armor awesome? Even if you shoot it with a crossbow, it will bounce off, but this kind of bullet has a hole in every shot! "

In later generations, the large-scale application of guns and artillery finally eliminated the canned plate armor.

Before that, when the plate armor knights hedged, they would point their lances obliquely downwards, with the primary goal of killing the opponent's mount.

This is because the defense of plate armor is the ceiling of the cold weapon era. Even with the help of horses, lances can hardly break through the defense.

So simply kill the opponent's horse and let the opponent's knight withdraw from the battle in a short time.

Well, the unit that really eliminated the plate armor knights who poked each other with lances was actually the black knights created by the Germans.

When these guys participated in the battle, they wore plate armor. Taking advantage of the opportunity that the defense could not be broken by cold weapons in a short period of time, they rushed to the plate armor knight with a pistol, and killed those trainees one by one by shooting in the face. An elite knight for more than ten years.

But at this moment, seeing Liu Ying's smug expression, Liu Bang naturally didn't believe it.

Han Xin didn't believe it either.

Liu Ying was too lazy to talk nonsense, just asked someone to find a breastplate for experimentation, and then put the flintlock in her hand between her legs at an angle, pulled out the cleaning rod under the muzzle, loaded gunpowder, and then bit by bit Slowly poke a Minie bullet into the barrel of the gun.

"Put the target farther away, seventy steps!"

Liu Ying waved her hand, her face full of confidence.

The five flintlock guns he showed to Liu Bang were specially made and improved versions, which were kept for his own use, and were prepared to be used as a force in the hunting session before the La Festival.

Therefore, the biggest difference between these flintlock guns and ordinary flintlock guns is that there are rifling in the barrel, which can be used more accurately. Therefore, it is not suitable for ordinary spherical projectiles, and Miner bullets must be used.

Well, this is because the spherical projectile is restricted by the rifling and cannot fit the barrel. If you want to hit it more accurately and farther, you must find a way to increase the airtightness.

For example, the German Jaeger rifle, when loading a spherical projectile, it is necessary to spread a small piece of cloth on the muzzle, and then put the projectile on it and smash it in.

In this way, the bullet can fit the rifling, so as to obtain greater friction to complete the rotation, stabilize the flight and hit the target, and increase the shooting accuracy at the same time.

But in this way, the loading speed is too slow, which leads to the fact that even with the rifling technology, soldiers still use flintlock guns without rifling.

The so-called Minie bullet is a lead bullet shaped like a rifle bullet. There are threads around the bullet body to fit the rifling, and there is a cork at the bottom of the bullet. The lead bullet is instantly deformed and broken after hitting the target, increasing the lethality.

In this way, the caliber of the Minie bullet can be made smaller than the barrel, which greatly improves the loading speed.

But because of this, the cost of Minie bullets is much higher than that of ordinary spherical lead bullets. After all, the latter only needs to melt the lead ingots and put them on a high tower to wait for the lead liquid to drip naturally into the pool below. Pick and get lead bullets that you can use.

The principle that lead liquid forms a sphere is the same as that of raindrops. As for letting lead bullets fall into the water, it is not for cooling down, but to reduce collisions so as not to damage its spherical shape.

Well, why are you shooting?By the way, three points and one line!Damn it, can you forget this?Hey, after all, what exceeds 1.8 joules is a gun. It’s normal to have never seen a real one...Liu Ying weighed the weight of the flintlock gun, and felt that her small arms and legs would definitely not be able to support it when shooting, and would be affected by breathing. impact and miss the target.

So he found a fork-shaped bracket, inserted it into the soil, and then placed the flintlock on the top of the fork-shaped bracket, then pulled up the hammer, aimed at the three-point line, and gently pulled the trigger.

boom!
Thick smoke flew, and the distant target fell in response.

"Hey! I got hit!"

Note 1: Among the bamboo slips unearthed from Yinwan Han Tomb in Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province, there is a wooden slip titled "A Collection of Weapons and Vehicles in the Four Years of Yongshi in the Arsenal", which records the names and quantities of soldiers and vehicles collected in the Arsenal. , bow 537707...
