Chapter 243 The God of Theory
The lunatic looked at Xiao Chen as if he had seen a ghost.
With his personality, even if he really saw a ghost, he probably wouldn't be so surprised.
"But it's already remarkable." Xiao Chen thought that the lunatic was upset, and hurriedly added, "With the existing craftsmanship and materials, you can manufacture such a precise gun. Brother lunatic, you are definitely a veritable supernatural workmanship."
"According to you, can it be better?" The lunatic's words were not out of competition, but from the heart.
"Of course. First of all, the gun barrel is best stamped with fine steel, and it is formed in one piece. There is no need to roll other alloys inside..." Xiao Chen sat down and picked up a straw stick to draw a gun barrel on the sand. Son.
"It's not difficult to cast fine steel in one piece, but how to draw the rifling inside? Or do you not need rifling?" The lunatic also sat down opposite him and questioned.
Fine steel is already the hardest material at present, if you want to cut rifling in it, it is impossible to do it at all.
"Of course there must be rifling, otherwise the projectile will not be able to rotate and go in a straight line, so the accuracy and range will be greatly affected. For example, the current musket must increase the amount of gunpowder to increase the range, otherwise it will not be able to hit far... The rifling is still There is a way to get it out, it's called the die extrusion method..."
While talking, Xiao Chen drew a drawing mold similar to a drill bit. The big guys all came together out of curiosity, but except for lunatics, no one could understand what this was?
The die head extrusion method is also known as the head-touching method, which is a rifling manufacturing process that was invented in the 20th century.
The specific method is to first make a solid gun barrel, drill a small hole at one end, and then use a high-hardness drill bit with protrusions corresponding to the female rifling, and use a high-pressure machine to drill down from the hole, and the steel material Extruded into yin and yang rifling.
There is no problem in theory, but first of all, how do you manufacture a drill bit that is harder than fine steel? Secondly, how much pressure does this need to do!
Unless you move a small stone mountain, you have to turn it around, and you have to turn it fast enough...
"So if you want to make this kind of barrel, you need to make a stamping machine first. There is no electricity at present... But we can use hydraulic power and some gears to get it done. This is quite complicated, so I won't draw it now. As for the drill bits, alloys can be used, of course, this also requires a high-temperature casting furnace first..."
Xiao Chen spoke seriously, and the lunatic listened carefully. The two of them were completely immersed in science and couldn't extricate themselves.
As long as the casting process is improved, the barrel can also be cast with alloys to reduce its rigidity and increase its plasticity during the casting process.
The drill bit is made of the hardest material, coupled with the theoretically achievable maximum speed, the rifling can be completed.
With a perfect rifling, the lead bullet can also be made into a copper core, so that the weight of the projectile can be reduced a lot, the range and lethality can be greatly improved, and the amount of gunpowder used can also be greatly reduced.
Xiao Chen also proposed an idea that sounds extremely magical to a madman, that is to use something called a bullet casing to launch projectiles.
A certain amount of gunpowder is added to the shell, and some more sensitive pilots are compacted at the bottom, and a firing pin is installed behind the barrel.
In this way, as long as the firing pin hits the rear of the cartridge case, the primer can be ignited, and the primer can detonate the gunpowder, and the powerful impact can push the projectile out.
This is already the prototype of the structure of modern guns, a revolution in gun technology that has spanned several centuries.
From the oldest muzzle-loading gun that needs a cleaning rod to press the gunpowder, it has passed the flintlock gun and directly entered the most advanced technology.
It made the lunatic a little bit unacceptable for a while.
"Of course, this can't be done in one or two years. We don't have such fine craftsmanship now. It's just my imagination." Xiao Chen sighed. What he said was all theory. In fact, with the current At the industrial level, it is still far from being able to do this.
But being able to put forward such a theory is already very, very remarkable, at least in the opinion of the madman, Master Xiao Chenxiao is a god-like existence!
From now on, I will follow you like a madman!
I don't want anything, as long as you have nothing to do and can chat with me for a while, I will be satisfied.
It is said that looking at the whole world, there is only Xiao Chen who can make a lunatic admire him wholeheartedly, and even worship him as a god-like idol.
This is the power of science!
Lu Fei brought two carts, and Wen Shanchang also came, first checked Duan Linger's injuries and found that there was nothing serious.
But when he saw Fu Yan's wound, he couldn't help sticking out his tongue, you man, you are so awesome, you still travel thousands of miles with such a fatal wound?
It's a medical miracle that you didn't die, but you lost a lot of blood along the way, and every organ in your body began to show signs of failure. According to common sense, you are still bound to die...
Fortunately, you met me, and you are lucky!
He opened the medicine box, washed his wound with medicinal wine, gouged out the rotten flesh, and sewed it up with a needle and thread. Because Fu Yan's body organs were already quite fragile, he didn't dare to use anesthetics.
Just let Fu Yan hold back.
And Fu Yan is really a tough guy, from the beginning to the end, he gritted his teeth tightly and never said a word!
The big guys are very impressed.
"Brother Fu, if you are in severe pain, just scream. It will be better if you scream out. You are all from your own family. Why are you embarrassed?" Duan Linger panicked because of his pain.
"How about I find a piece of wood for you and bite on it? It would be bad if you accidentally bit off your tongue." Tie Kunlun found a piece of wood and tried to stuff it into Fu Yan's tightly closed mouth.
"Oh, this is really a soft knife to cut flesh. I'm afraid it will hurt people to death. If it was me, I would have cried for my father and mother. Brother Fu is really a tough man!" Lu Fei gave Fu Yan a thumbs up .
But Fu Yan closed his eyes tightly, clenched his teeth, and didn't say a word...
"Stop shouting, he passed out from the pain." Wen Shanchang said slowly.
Oh……
The big guy suddenly realized, no wonder he didn't say a word.
After Fu Yan woke up, he found himself lying naked on a soft bed, and the bed was still swaying flickeringly. It turned out that it was a big cart moving.
There were two beautiful women beside the bed, one was wiping his body with a soft towel, and the other was decocting medicine on a charcoal brazier.
Seeing him wake up, they showed a nice smile together.
"I, I, I, I can do it myself!" This was the first sentence Fu Yan said.
After all, it's so frightfully embarrassing for a big man to be naked in front of two beauties. The most embarrassing thing is that the beauties are wiping his most shameful parts!
"Mr. Fu, please don't move. I heard the genius doctor said that if your wound is opened again, it will be terrible!" The round-faced beauty who wiped his body hurriedly held him down when he was trying to get up. It's pretty big.
"We are nurses in the army. We are responsible for taking care of wounded soldiers. In fact, we are also half doctors. You don't have to be embarrassed when you are sick." The oval-faced beauty who decocted medicine laughed.
"But..." Fu Yan's pale face turned red, and he was speechless in embarrassment.
