The Ominous Lord of the Skaven

Chapter 34 Forged Gun Barrel

The idea of ​​forging the barrel is not that complicated as a whole. Ickert thought about it for a while, and roughly summed up a set of procedures, which should be pretty much the same as the method on Blue Star.

First, take a wrought iron sheet of sufficient thickness and heat it to
flushed.

Then put the heated iron sheet on the pre-prepared mold, and use a ball-headed hammer to aim at the middle of the iron sheet and forge it repeatedly until the two sections of the iron sheet roughly show a tendency to bend and fit.

After the basic shape of the gun barrel appears, it is necessary to continue beating until the two sections of the iron sheet are almost attached, and then forge the gap at the connection as much as possible until it disappears.

During the whole process, it is necessary to ensure that the temperature of the iron sheet is sufficient, otherwise it is necessary to repeatedly heat and forge, which is too time-consuming and laborious. Ickert simply used the improved fire system to achieve heating while forging.

In order to reduce the risk of bombing, Ickert specially added a layer of iron sheet on the outside of the barrel. The barrel wrapped by double-layer iron sheet looks very thick.

However, the forging process is not over yet. After having the prototype of the barrel, Ickert replaced the hammer head with a concave hammer.

At this time, the iron rod prepared in advance came in handy. At this time, the caliber of the gun barrel was slightly larger than the diameter of the iron rod, and the physical properties in all directions were uneven.

Therefore, it is necessary to insert this iron rod into the barrel, and repeatedly forge it from the outside of the barrel with a concave hammer to make it gradually fit the iron rod, and modify the physical properties of the inner wall and the outside of the barrel.

When this step is completed, the gap at the joint of the iron sheet is basically invisible, and it has completely become a gun barrel.

But in the end, the outside of the barrel is hammered into an angular polygon with a flat hammer for easy attachment to wood.

After it cooled and formed, Ickert picked up the delicate barrel with mixed feelings in his heart.

If it was changed to another low-magic world, then Ikert would be glad that he could already use this thing to destroy the knights!

However, in this goddamn different world, master knights can really have a defensive power comparable to armored vehicles after wearing rune plate armor
Moreover, they are still humanoid individuals, with small targets and fast moving speeds. Even with powerful artillery, it is difficult to aim and kill them!
Even with Refined Warpstone ammo, there is no guarantee that it will be effective against higher tier units.

The appearance of the gun can only bring a leap in combat power to the territory at best, so that he can train a large-scale army with less cost and time.

And after being busy for so long, Ickert didn't even prepare the part about gunpowder.

With a barrel and no powder, the gun is a complete display.

But Eckert also has his own considerations.

He definitely knew the formula of black powder.

One sulfur, two nitrates, and three charcoals, he had memorized them all in his previous life.

But where does the sulfur go?Where do you get the nitrate?What do they look like?Ickert really wanted to post a post to ask sand sculpture netizens: What should I do if I didn’t prepare for the basic knowledge before crossing?

exist?Can you post the answer in the barrage.

What's more, this is still a different world, the geographical environment and oxidative environment are different from the earth, maybe the appearance of these minerals is also different from that on the blue star.

As for looking for physical properties, Ickert has not thought about it, but unfortunately, he is not the emperor.

The only land in the world that belongs to oneself is Windsor, and there is currently not even a gram of iron ore produced here.
In short, Ickert has no expectations for the step-by-step restoration of human industry, so what about the mechanical dog?Can a mechanical dog really restore human industry from scratch?
Might as well let him learn programming from scratch.

However, although Ickert can't follow the old path of Blue Star's human industry, the magical magic power and magic technology have brought him new possibilities.

Isn't it cool to have a magical technology system?

Do as soon as you think of it (mainly because I returned everything I learned to the teacher, I only learned magic in a different world).

After a series of brainstorming sessions, Ickert's bold usage circle replaced gunpowder.

As for the dimension stone, it is more reliable to make bullets
This time, a lot of basic magic knowledge was used to make the magic gun, so Ickert naturally thought of his magic apprentice.

Little Sasha has been watching by Ickert's side all the time, but before that, Ickert has been hammering iron with the hammerhead, without any teaching content at all, and even seldom said a word.

The reason why little Sasha was called here was just to bring tea and water to Ickert. After all, the environment during the forging was really not good.

Sasha's bright eyes were so tortured that she lost her mind. Since the morning, she has been blacksmithing, ironing, ironing
"Sasha, bring the mithril steel here."

Seeing that the gun barrel was finally completed, Ickert instructed his apprentice to bring the final materials.

However, the latter has obviously lost his soul completely, and murmured inexplicable words in his mouth.

"Strike the iron, strike the iron, eat, teacher, drink water, teacher, wipe your sweat, strike the iron, strike the iron."

When Ickert called her, Sasha's first reaction was to pass water to the teacher. I don't know if it was because she was left for too long. Ickert only felt that Sasha's movements were very stiff and mechanical.

Then he choked, not surprisingly.

"Teacher, drink water!"

"Gulu Gulu Gulu. Keke Keke!"

Little Sasha didn't care about 21, and just put the kettle on Ickert's mouth and didn't put it down.

At first, he could still enjoy the rare water, but soon he couldn't even breathe.

"Rebel! Rebel! Stop! Do you want to choke your teacher to death!"

Ickert quickly pulled away and hid to the side, but Sasha still kept pouring water motionless.

It wasn't until all the water in the kettle was emptied that Sasha regained her composure.

"Yeah! No more?"

Sasha stared into the kettle with one eye wide open, then shook the bottle down unwillingly, only to find that there was indeed no drop of water.

"Teacher, are you still thirsty?"

"I'm not thirsty anymore, I'm not thirsty anymore!"

Ickert shook his head quickly, but then he reacted, and knocked Sasha's head lightly so that he crouched in defense.

"I'm going to give a lecture! Pay me attention!"

"Wow, good teacher."

Sasha stuck out her tongue, obviously not taking Ickert's seriousness seriously, but she quickly switched to the "good boy" mode, handed the mithril steel, and began to listen to Ickert's explanation attentively.

"Sasha, do you know the difference between high-level spells and low-level spells?"

"do not know."

Sasha shook her head. The teacher doesn't teach anything, so why does he like to ask her questions so much?

Eckert also gradually realized his bad habits, and immediately began to explain them to Sasha.

"From zero-level to high-level spells is not a purely innovative process, but a process of integration and innovation."
