Chapter 204 Eating
Ma Chao originally thought very simple, since your bullets are flying too fast, then I will let you fly a little slower.And I didn't come from firearms design, so I don't know how to modify the [-] cover at all.Therefore, we can only think of a way on the bullet.

As Ma Chao knows, the speed of flight is directly proportional to the force received by the flying object and its own resistance.According to what Lao Maozi said, as long as he has great strength, he can fly a brick at the speed of sound.The power comes from the propellant powder filled by the bullet itself, which cannot be handled without professional tools.Therefore, the only thing that can be done is to increase the resistance of the bullet itself when it flies.

According to this line of thinking, the Dum bomb came out naturally.After all, the main feature of the Dum bullet is that the bullet is not completely covered by the armor or the bullet is cut by the armor. This structure makes it easily deformed and broken after hitting the human body.The structure mainly includes the lead exposed type of the bullet, the flat exposed type with the lead core cut open at the bullet head, the shrinkage type with the lead core cut open at the bullet head, and the longitudinally cut type of the curved part of the bullet shell.

And the difficulty of this processing is much easier than reducing the amount of gunpowder.After all, it only needs to be cut hard on the warhead, and it can be called a simple version of Dum bomb.

However, although the lethality has increased, the flight distance and stability of the bullet will indeed be reduced a lot.After all, this lethality is based on irregular warheads.The irregular warhead means that its flight resistance is very serious.Even, the angle of its flight arc will reach an appalling situation.Perhaps, the idea of ​​bullet turning in movies and TV series is the inspiration from here.

In the pot next to the bonfire, the gurgling sound of boiling the pot is constantly ringing, and the aroma of the food is also constantly exuding to the surroundings.But the people around, except for Ma Chao, the other three didn't notice this at all, but were concentrating on, using the firelight, they were constantly processing the bullets in their hands, making each of them look like a bullet. A very delicate bullet has become extremely ferocious.

Ma Chao didn't interrupt their thoughts, but took out a piece of meat from the pot and ate it quietly and tastefully.The stew in the pot is donkey meat, which was originally used by the little devil to pull the cart to transport grain.The source? Needless to say, they were all snatched from the village.In the previous battle, a few animals were accidentally killed, so Ma Chao and the others stewed them all based on the principle of not wasting.Before eating, all the cooked donkey meat was taken out of the pot, and then new raw meat was added and the stew continued.

Because, after eating tonight, the remaining meat has to be processed overnight, and when we set off tomorrow, we will bring it back to the maximum extent and use it for eating.

You know, starting tomorrow, they will completely enter the city of Nanjing. At this time, they will naturally prepare a large amount of supplies to avoid the embarrassing situation of insufficient supplies.Although it is true that food can be given to the enemy, but do you think that a city that has been reduced to a battlefield, and a group of troops that are facing food shortages themselves, how much food will they have on them.At that time, the replenishment of ammunition will be easy to solve. After all, every little devil may not have anything on his body, but there will definitely be combat weapons such as bullets.No matter how bad it is, there must be a bayonet.But food will definitely become a big problem.

Needless to say, in the past, based on the current calculation of an ordinary city, how much food does a city need to consume every day to maintain normal operation.Based on the calculation of 10 people in a small city, a modern person needs to eat at least one catty of staple food every day, plus two catties of vegetables and fruits. That is to say, each person needs three catties of food every day. Guaranteed to survive.And this city consumes 30 catties of food every day, and this does not include meat, milk and other non-staple foods.

As for Nanjing, since the original Shanghai Expeditionary Army, which was reorganized as the Japanese Central China Front Army, sent troops to Nanjing under the order of the new commander, Prince Asaka Miya Hatohiko, there has never been ample food in Nanjing.Even if the prices on the market rose three times a day, it didn't stop people's determination to buy food.Fortunately, those villages outside Nanjing City were still transporting various food supplies to Nanjing City at that time. Although the price of food in the city had been rising, it was still available for purchase.Therefore, the atmosphere of the whole city is quite calm.

But until the little devil's soldiers had completely advanced to surround the city of Nanjing, the city of Nanjing became an isolated island in the middle of the vast ocean, and there was no more supplement from the outside world.It is all maintained by the consumption that I have saved before, but Nanjing City is a typical consumption-oriented city. It is already a great thing for ordinary people in the city to be able to store food for seven days at home.

At that time, how many people were there in Nanjing?According to the records of the Republic of China, the population of Nanjing in 26 was 9000. In 43, the urban area of ​​Nanjing was planned to be NJ City. In 36, it quickly rose to 500 people, and in 79 years it reached 950 people.

By the time of the census in June 20, the entire NJ city had 160 households and 450 people, of which the urban population was 85 and the rural population was 780. One thousand six hundred and sixty-nine people.

By the time the Japanese army completely defended Nanjing, there were still at least 50 permanent residents in the city who had not evacuated. Including the troops defending Nanjing and the civilian husbands accompanying the army, there were almost 65 people.These people consume about 150 million catties of food every day.

After the Japanese army occupied Nanjing, they began to collect food in a planned way. As a result, it was very difficult to collect food in the city.Therefore, Ma Chao regards the issue of food as so important.

After the three of them processed all the bullets on their bodies, they picked up the donkey meat that had been cooled down next to them, and began to swallow it. Now, what they have to do is to eat as much food as possible. In the ensuing battle, hold on for as long as possible.
