Chapter 943 - Electric Shotgun and Rifle Gun
Li Guodong held a lightning gun in his hand. This was a new firearm created by Song Yingxing based on Zhao Shijian's "Art Chart". In fact, this is a single-soldier flintlock Franchise machine equipped with six sub-guns. After Song Yingxing's transformation, the lid on the top of the abdomen of the gun was directly turned into a bolt. Pull the bolt, the hook under the lid hook out the jaw, and then stuff a new jaw into the abdomen of the gun, and then push the bolt. However, there is another step, which is to load the induction medicine into the induction medicine pool and cover the induction medicine cover before firing again.
The electric-resolution gun is a kind of rear-loading gun with very advanced concepts. It combines the advantages of the Franchise machine, the Lumi gun and the flintlock gun to create a new type of firearm.
However, the drawbacks of the electric gun are also very many. First of all, the structure is complex. Even the earliest fuse-string electric guns are very complex. The structure is complex, the reliability is low, and the cost and construction period are also greatly increased. The most serious is the defect in air tightness. This kind of fire gun is prone to air leakage when it is fired.
Since the emergence of tubular firearms, due to the slow loading speed, humans have been trying to create a tubular firearm that can be loaded quickly, so what comes to mind is the rear-mounting method. The speed of the rear-mounting method is much higher than the front-mounting method. The first type of tubular firearm is the Franc machine. However, the original rear-mounting firearms have many problems, the most serious of which is the problem of air leakage. Air leakage of firearms not only affects the range, accuracy and power, but also poses a great threat to the shooter himself.
Even revolvers that appeared in the 19th century may have air leakage. If the shooter accidentally puts his fingers between the rotor magazine and the gap between the barrel, the leaking gunpowder gas can cut off the shooter's fingers!
In order to develop the rear-loading gun and solve the problem of air leakage in the rear-loading gun, the German Siemens developed various types of bulging bolts, which ended in failure. In a rear-loading test, Siemens was injured by a gunpowder explosion that broke through the bulging bolt. The powerful gunpowder gas made him seriously injured and even his ears were deaf. After that failure, Siemens gave up the development of the bulging bolts and devoted his energy to the development of the electrical aspect. Finally, he became an electrical engineer and founded Siemens.
Siemens failed in the test of blasting bolts, but it was not in vain that Krupp made screw-type blasting bolts and wedge-type blasting bolts based on Siemens' experience and lessons, which solved the problem of air leakage of blasting bolts.
It was not until the 19th century that humans entered the industrial age that humans solved the problem of air leakage in the rear-mounted tubular firearms. Therefore, the post-mounted musket produced by Zhao Shijian and Song Yingxing in this era actually had many problems. In the simplest way, this primitive cover-type bolt was easily exploded by gunpowder gas, causing the archer's face torn apart.
In order to prevent the cover plate from being exploded, Song Yingxing added an iron hoop in front and back of the cover plate according to Li Guodong's suggestion, reducing the probability of the cover plate being exploded.
As for rifle, don't joke. This extremely unreliable thing dares to carve rifle? Carving rifle and increasing friction force requires a higher chamber pressure to launch the projectile. When the chamber pressure increases, it is easier to explode the chamber, explode the cover plate, etc. So, should you kill the enemy or blow yourself?
It can be said that Zhao Shijian's concept of electric guns is very advanced, and it is basically the prototype of the later bolt-action rifle. However, because the basic materials and production technology cannot meet the requirements, this weapon is just something left on paper. Li Guodong came to this era, and with the efforts of Song Yingxing, Dai Cang and others, he put this thing into production, but it can only be produced in small batches and cannot be popularized at all. Moreover, because the sub-gun dares to load enough medicine, its power and accuracy are far less than that of the traditional front-mounted rifle gun. When firing, the shooter has to be worried, for fear that the cover will be blown up by accident and blow up his face.
The electric gun in Li Guodong's hand was carefully created by Song Yingxing and Dai Cang, and it was carefully selected from more than 100 electric guns. Only then did he dare to use it for confidence.
At this time, Li Guodong's small team was hiding in a forest. In order to hide themselves, the team did not make fires and cooked along the way. They would chew dry food when they were hungry and drink a sip of mountain spring water when they were thirsty. The team almost hiding out at night, hiding in the forest during the day, and marched at night. Along the way, they also attacked a Qing army barracks at night, killing and wounding more than 500 Qing soldiers, and capturing two beacon towers, achieving considerable results.
"Dude, a team came in front of them. Looking at their banners and clothes, they looked like a camp of loyalty, with about two hundred people." At this moment, Ye Bucheng walked into the jungle and reported to Li Guodong.
"Zhongzhen Camp?" Li Guodong felt suspicious, "I suspect that it was not our Zhongzhen Camp, but Jiannu's return group! I will first bring a hundred brothers out to ask what happened, you are ambushing the woods and waiting. If it is really Jiannu, I will defeat them and lead them over, and you will kill you again. General Cao, bring the three hundred knives players and go back to the enemy. Once we start fighting, you will rush out and cut off the enemy's retreat. Be sure to wipe out this fake Jiannu in one fell swoop!"
Li Guodong's judgment was correct. This team wearing the military uniforms of the Zhongzhen Camp under the banner of Zhongzhen Camp was indeed a fake Zhongzhen Camp in the Return Group.
Hong Chengchou learned all the tactics of disguising Li Guodong as an enemy. He asked the Return Group to disguise himself as the Zhongzhen Camp. In this way, when the Return Group entered the mountainous area, he could deceive the guards of the mountain village and then suddenly entered the village to start a massacre. As a result, many people in the village suffered great losses and were brutally massacred by the Return Group. Those villages that were brutally massacred by the Return Group that were disguised as the Zhongzhen Camp could not escape. The Zhongzhen Camp still does not know that the Return Group disguised as themselves to massacre the people.
Li Guodong led more than 100 people out of the mountains and forests and walked forward to the "Loyal Camp". Of course, when he was about to approach that army, Li Guodong did not take the risk of walking in the front.
Juren Tian suddenly discovered that there was a Ming army wearing a red mandarin duck battle jacket and armor on the outside, which was shocked, but he quickly calmed down: What are we afraid of when we were wearing the skin of a Ming dog? Even Ming dogs were not in harmony with the inside, including Ming dogs from Chongzhen and Ming dogs from Yongli pseudo-emperor. If the Ming dogs from Yongli pseudo-emperor were also the enemy of the bandits. While he was thinking in his mind, he secretly sent orders to the bird gunners to light the fuse and prepare for battle.
A man walked out of the Ming army and shouted to Juren Tian: "Which general are you under the command of Zhongzhen Camp?"
The people from the Return Group replied: "We are under General Yuan Zongdi."
The Ming army soldiers asked them again which general they belonged to and which army they had in Zhongzhen Camp. They talked nonsense on the opposite side, but Li Guodong heard the flaws.
"It's Jiannu!" Ming Jun suddenly shouted, took off the crossbow from his back, picked up the crossbow, and pressed down the hanging knife. A crossbow arrow whistled out with the sound of breaking through the air, and an arrow pierced into the throat of a soldier returning home.
"Hurry up, fire the gun!" Juren Tian shouted.
The soldiers of the Returning Regiment raised their bird guns and pulled the trigger. "Boom boom" a row of guns roared, white smoke filled with them, and the bullets splashed at the Ming army eighty steps away. In fact, at this distance, the bird guns in the hands of the Qing soldiers did not pose any threat to Li Guodong's mountain army.
But it’s strange that when the Ming army heard the sound of guns, they turned their heads and ran away, without fighting spirit. Someone ran away while shouting: “Jiannu’s firearm is so powerful! We can’t beat it! Run!”
"Catch up and kill all these bright dogs!" Juren Tian shouted, urging his return group to chase after him.
Li Guodong ran desperately into the mountains and forests. Just as he was about to enter his ambush circle, Li Guodong turned around and pulled the trigger of the electric gun. With a "boom", the bullet hit a return soldier eighty steps away and knocked him down in a pool of blood.
"Bang bang bang bang" A few clear gunfire sounded in the jungle. Tian Juren was dancing and bleeding mist spurted out of his chest. Without even a humming sound, he rolled down from the mountain road and rolled down the hillside.
