The Great Ming Reversal

Chapter 346: Grenades

Views:

The development of the gun was quickly completed with the help of a group of professionals. There was no problem in subsequent manufacturing. This incident made Wei Ming understand that no matter what it was, it was more reliable to hand it over to professionals than to tinker with it yourself. Now that muskets can be developed, can grenades be tinkered with? We must also have a full set of millet and rifle, right? At the very least, there were still two grenades to throw at the heroes, and they couldn't hurt their brothers.

The reason why Wei Ming wants to study the grenade is not all here. The key is to improve the cannon, which he really can't do. The group of skilled craftsmen under the guidance of Wei Ming did experiments in this area, and changed from loading ammunition at the front to loading ammunition at the back. As a result, the craftsmanship was not good, it was not sealed properly, the bomb was not shot out, the chamber was blown up, and two people were injured. Everyone upholds the spirit of dedication to science, and overcomes difficult problems day and night, but the result is still not good. As a result, more than a dozen skilled craftsmen were killed and injured, which made Wei Ming's heart bleed. Such talents are not easy to find, and if one is injured, one is lost. In the end, Wei Ming decisively gave up this attempt and began to develop hand grenade. This thing was thrown out and exploded, so it should be less dangerous and easier to study. If you make a melon grenade, make a few more small barrels, and shoot the grenade out, the effect will not be much worse. I thought that the Japanese country did not use this thing less to be a hero. Now that the Northern Invaders have been made up, it should be very useful to think about it. This can also be regarded as a weapon against the cavalry. Wei Ming didn't think that in the age when there was no heavy machine gun, the cavalry of Jin Mongol could be done with a musket alone.

Standing outside the research site, Wei Ming looked at the trial-release development of the grenade, and said to Li Zicheng: "Since I made a statement, has there been any movement in the post-Golden Mongolian coalition forces?"

"There was movement, but not big. Houjin only sent 10,000 cavalry back to Shanxi to roam around. In fact, it was to guard our side. The other large troops are still besieging Xuanfu." Li Zicheng said.

"When will our people arrive?" Wei Ming said.

"There will be one more month. Now An Bangyan and She Chongming Flying Pigeon have spread the word and said that there are only three days on our schedule. The two of them will arrive with a thousand Marines." Li Zicheng Replied.

"The two of them just need to come here. Who else to bring? Does Lu Xiangsheng don't need anyone there anymore?" Wei Ming said with a frown.

"Master Hou, Lu Xiangsheng also explained this matter. After all, the Marine Corps was formed at that time. They are all well-informed people. Since then, they have not expanded their enrollment. It is very unlikely that there will be a place to rape. You It’s better to have some of your own pro-military forces around. After all, to command such a large army, it’s impossible to do without someone you can trust." Li Zicheng said.

"Okay, it's all here, so what else to say. Didn't you say that you want to experiment with the results of grenades? Why hasn't there been any movement for a long time?" Wei Ming asked strangely. Since you can make things like mines, there is no problem with mines. There is nothing wrong with mines, is there a problem with grenade

"I don't know what they are doing. It's about today, there should be no problem. Wait a minute, it should be soon." Having said that, Wei Ming paused and said, "Master Hou, the madam is going to give birth today. , Won't you go back and have a look?"

"What to see, the country will not be the country, but also what that thing does!" Wei Ming glared at Li Zicheng and shouted. Although Wei Ming said so, it would be a lie to say that he was not nervous. But he did everything he could. The best wife with a radius of tens of miles had entered Weiming’s manor two months ago to be given birth. Wu Youke and Zhao Guxia, who were originally in Nanzhili, also came to Shaanxi and lived in Weiming’s manor. inside. It is said that these two people can no longer survive in Nanzhili. The Eight Kings covered the entire Nanzhili with smoke and dust, and the plague did not break out with the efforts of the two. It was perfect. I heard that Wei Ming was in Shaanxi. , And decisively ran to Shaanxi. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the world is going to be in chaos now. The two felt that it should be safer to stay with Wei Ming, so they came to Shaanxi. Wei Ming really didn't feel that his arrogance was revealed, and all the people with lofty ideals in the world would come and submit. This thing is obviously nonsense. With these two people, even if an accident happens, it should be able to solve it. Even if he goes back, it just adds to the chaos.

At this moment, with a bang, Wei Ming and Li Zicheng were taken aback. Looking inside, a puff of black smoke rose. Li Zicheng and Wei Ming looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

"Could it be that the gunpowder depot exploded?" Wei Ming was shocked, and Li Zicheng was about to run up with a jump, only to be held back by Wei Ming. The gunpowder storehouse exploded, you dared to rush upwards, it's really terrible! And when I look inside, it doesn't seem right. The gunpowder depot exploded. Why did the group of people inside jump and jump again, as if they were still very happy.

"Successful, successful, we succeeded!" When two people saw Wei Ming and Li Zicheng outside the venue, they were happy to give a big hug. Li Zicheng, who was far away, pulled out his saber, and the two saw the bright light. His saber was also very witty, turned a corner and left, and went to celebrate with other people.

"What did it succeed?" Wei Ming was confused.

"Master Hou, they really said it was a success." Li Zicheng nodded. At this time, two people walked out of the research site, the prestigious old man and the two hundred jin fat aunt.

"See Lord Hou!" The two came over and saluted respectfully, which made Wei Ming wake up like a dream, and lifted the two of them up, and then asked, "How is the experiment going? Is it feasible?"

"Master Hou, you have seen it just now. It works, of course it works. This grenade is similar to the principle of a big artillery battle. If we can, we don’t need a launch tube at all. We use the principle to shoot directly. Put in the enemy line and make sure you can blow the other party's ass!" The old man said with full confidence, but Wei Ming didn't have much confidence. Gunpowder is not stable, and things like hand thunders often appear. If there is more gunpowder, then people can't be blown up? Wei Ming didn't think this was a good idea. However, the production of every finished product requires a beautiful idea, and he has not suppressed other people's creative minds. Not necessarily in the previous life, but not now. Since the appearance of the steam engine, the current Ming Dynasty is no longer the Ming Dynasty of the previous life. Nowadays, steam engines are not only appearing on steam locomotives. Some people have already begun to use this kind of things on textile machines and ships. Experiments are being carried out step by step. I believe it will not take long for results to be produced. Since the cars are no longer on the original track, they cannot be demanded by the rules on the original track.

"Since it's successful, let's talk about it. How powerful is this grenade?" Wei Ming said.

"Lord Hou, please take a look." The old man took out a wooden grenade from his back, and Wei Ming was taken aback. The technology of this gadget is still immature. It can be said that it has just started. I don’t know if this gadget can explode on its own. It’s better to stay away from yourself.

"It's all right, old man, you'd better accept this stuff first, just say it directly." Wei Ming said.

"Oh, that's it." The old man wanted to show off at first, but he knew what Wei Ming was thinking by looking at Wei Ming. He threw the grenade in his hand to the fat woman and said, "Master Hou, The level of our grenade is not good now. It can only explode three pieces, but the noise is loud enough and convenient enough. As long as the opponent's cavalry rushes over, throw a wave, even if it can't cause much damage to the opponent. Able to surprise and scare the enemy." The old man said.

"There are only three pieces." Wei Ming said regretfully. But it's also very good. The grenade used for *** is said to be able to fry two pieces, which is much easier to use.

"It's okay, Lord Hou, we can improve this. As long as we increase the amount of gunpowder added, the power should still be improved." The old man hurriedly said seeing Wei Ming's disappointed look.

"Research is necessary, but you must pay attention to safety. You are all pillars of the country, and one less is a huge loss to the country." Wei Ming said solemnly.

"Xie Houye! With the words of Houye, even if we die like this, there is no regret." The old man knelt down excitedly. Originally, their craftsmanship was just called scheming, no one recognized it, and its status was low. But when he arrived at Wei Ming, he was treated as a treasure, which made the skilled craftsmen a lot of satisfaction. This is why they are so desperate.
