Song Dynasty Iron Armored Army

Chapter 125
Several people came to a tent not far from the camp of the Chinese army. Chai Lin took a short-handled spray gun from the shelf, handed it to Chai Yong, and said, "Look at this firecracker."

Chai Yong took it and looked at it carefully. It was a short-handled spray gun, with a black steel pipe and a walnut handle.

Chai Yong shook his head and said: "I have no research on firearms, they look exactly the same as the two used by my brother."

"Yes, the appearance is the same. At that time, I made four, two for me, and two for Chai Meng. Because the design was rough and the use was very dangerous, they were not promoted. Now it is different. Tiangong No. [-] Battalion made it according to my method. It has been improved, with a safety device installed, using paper shells, although it can still only fire one round at a time, but the reloading speed is very fast."

Chai Lin said as he opened the magazine, quickly closed the magazine after loading, and aimed.The whole process takes no more than two seconds.

"It has to be said that it is still a very basic and primitive gun, but melee combat is much more powerful than bows and arrows. Twenty of them were made this time, and each of the accompanying soldiers has two for melee protection. They will be used for a period of time. , and mass-produce after finalizing the shape.” Chailin said.

From Chai Yong's point of view, he can't see through the future of hot weapons, and Chai Lin doesn't need to explain too much. Chai Yong may not have a high level of understanding, but his execution is very good. Whether the owner arranges it right or wrong, just do it.

Chai Lin said: "Do you feel that the power just now is not enough, not even as good as a bow and arrow, let me show you what's on the frame of this carriage."

Next to it was the big wheel of a two-wheeled carriage. The steel-clad wood wheel was thick and strong, and the central log was very strong. It was covered with a piece of wood with a red cloth.

Chai Yong pulled it away, and saw a dark steel pipe with a mouth as thick as a child's bowl.The top is thin and the bottom is thick, Chai Yong looked at it for a long time but didn't understand what it was.

Chai Lin laughed and said, "This is called a field gun. It has a caliber of [-] millimeters, a length of [-] meters, and a weight of [-] jin. They happen to be at the experimental field, let's try it in the past."

"Yes." Chai Yong said.

With the addition of miscellaneous accessories, a gun cart weighs only more than 500 catties, and a mule can be easily towed. This is lighter than the bronze-cast Napoleon gun. It is not 01:30. As a high-quality smoothbore front-loading gun, his use Still pretty simple.If it is a Napoleon gun of the same caliber, it must weigh at least a thousand catties, but steel is much stronger than bronze, so it does not need to be so heavy.

Chai Lin brought more than a dozen soldiers and two artillery vehicles to the Xiaoshan Experimental Field. When Chai Lin arrived, Chai Meng was leading the reconnaissance battalion for training.
Ten crouching tiger cannons fired.

"Mengzi, the fight was really fun, the little Crouching Tiger Cannon is like a firecracker, I'll show you what a big guy it is." Chai Yong said.

Meng Zi curled his lips: "I know what it is, it's called Crouching Tiger Cannon, and one cannon can beat ten archers."

"You are my younger brother, let me open your eyes."

As Chai Yong spoke, he pulled the red cloths off the two [-]mm field guns, and Chai Meng was stunned.

The [-]-caliber field gun is ten times heavier than the Crouching Tiger Cannon. The gun body alone weighs [-] jin, and the black muzzle is also extremely sturdy.

"Wow, the cannon is so big. It's a bit too ruthless. Such a big guy, how much ammunition needs to be loaded, and how far can it hit." Chai Meng said in surprise.

Chai Lin said: "I don't know how far it will go. Didn't I ask you to test it? Find a few people to try it out and record the data."

"Yes, start now."

According to the comparison with the household crouching tiger cannon, the crouching tiger cannon has a charge of about half a catty, and the field gun has a charge of at least two catties.The soldiers took the cannon brushes to clean the cannon chamber first, and then after loading, they gently put the twelve-pound iron ball in. The front and rear supports on the cannon frame were fixed, and they aimed at the valley due north and fired.

There was a loud bang, and the iron egg flew out at an extremely fast speed, flying far, far away, but neither heard nor saw where it landed.

The observer searched for two miles but couldn't find it, so he had to shout: "Battle Commander, I really can't find it, and I didn't even see the landing point."

Chai Lin said: "Come on, let's get on the horse and look for it. It should be easy to find such a big iron egg."

A group of people got on their horses and ran along the valley for three miles. They found it on a pile of rocks. They landed on a stone and smashed it to pieces. Then they rolled for another 20 meters and pulled the rope to measure a thousand. 700 meters.

Chai Meng sighed: "In comparison, Crouching Tiger Pao is really a younger brother. This is too far away."

"Add a little medicine, and there will be no pressure for five miles. This cannon weighs [-] catties, and the tail is very strong." Chailin said.

For the second time, the dose was increased, just as Chailin said, and it lasted four and a half miles.If it is replaced with a hollow iron egg to reduce the weight, it is completely possible for five or six miles.

When everyone came back, they experimented with shotguns again, loaded 500 steel balls, pressed lightly, and set [-] scarecrow targets [-] meters away.Chai Yong aimed at the scarecrow by moving the gun mount.

Boom, there was a loud noise, and the steel balls hit the sky and covered the sky, and dozens of scarecrows fell down instantly as if they were blown by a strong wind.

After careful inspection, each scarecrow was hit by six bullets on average, and the furthest point the steel ball landed was 650 meters away. This power can only be described as scary.

Chai Meng was so excited that he couldn't speak, and it took him a long time to say: "Brother, this cannon is too, too fierce. If the enemy army stands densely packed with 100 people, I dare say that one cannon can solve it."

"Okay, this [-]mm caliber field gun is named the Shenwei Invincible General Cannon. Mengzi, train Chai Yong and the others well. They must be proficient within ten days. The personal barracks must be equipped with ten General Cannons." Chailin said.

Chai Meng's eyes were hot, and he said, "Brother, why don't our reconnaissance battalion also equip two."

Chailin scolded: "You kid, don't be fooling around all day long. The task of the reconnaissance battalion is reconnaissance. The Crouching Tiger Cannon equipped for you is because I am worried that the reconnaissance battalion has fewer people and will suffer from hard ideas. You said you want these What's the use of a hundred-jin cannon? Is that still a reconnaissance battalion?"

Chai Meng: "Brother, I was wrong, I was wrong, the reconnaissance battalion really can't use such a big artillery."

"By the way, I'll equip your battalion with ten short sprayers. I'll experiment a lot recently, and if it's good, I'll mass-produce them." Chailin said.

"Yes."

Chai Lin took a few soldiers who were newly equipped with short spray guns to the nearby shooting range to teach them how to use the spray guns.

This kind of spray fires shotguns in a single shot, and it is almost unnecessary to aim at a short distance of 30 meters, because it hits a surface instead of a point.

"Bang." A puff of smoke.

After this shot, you have to change the location, otherwise the thick smoke will block your view.

This afternoon was busy and fulfilling. The soldiers practiced the general guns and short spray guns, and did not go back until it was almost dinner. The whole test site was full of smoke, and the north wind could not blow away the smell.

　Chapter 1 is on the shelves, please make a first order, thank you everyone.
