Super Chief

Chapter 270: Conscience Cannon

Hearing Shixiong's words, everyone including Kuaima showed expectation on their faces. Even Gao Niu and Dajiao stopped mentioning the evacuation, because they all wanted to see how powerful the thing that the Guardian had come out of was in actual combat.

In this expedition to Yu Chiren, Kuaima, as Shi Xiong's hardest brother, will naturally follow him. And he also helped Jack Williams and the others to make this kind of "gadgets", and when they used this kind of "gadgets" for a while, he was the main manipulator.

Said it is a "gadget", but this thing is really not small, at least it is much larger than the muskets used by the brothers.

Five large drums wrapped in animal skins were unloaded from the back of the cow. This large drum was made of thin steel plates. The joints and the bottom were riveted with rivets, and one end was open.

A large drum is forty centimeters in diameter and about one meter in length. The whole body is made of thin steel plates about three millimeters thick. The weight of such a large drum is more than one hundred and sixty kilograms, a cow. Can carry such a cylinder.

This is why this expedition team will use ten tamed bison to pull ammunition supplies, mainly for pulling these five "gadgets."

Just as Kuima and the others unloaded these five "gadgets", other soldiers had already dug five inclined pits more than 70 centimeters deep and almost half a meter in diameter on the top of the small hills at the fastest speed. After unloading the five big drums, they were put directly into the excavated inclined pit, and then the gaps were filled with the excavated soil.

At this time, the warriors in the formation had already begun to shoot. Some fast-running Yuchis have reached the foot of the hills, and the distance from the top of the mountain is about 200 meters.

Because it is a condescending shooting, it is no problem to extend the distance appropriately.

The big drum was set up, and Kuima and the others put five logs up to 15 centimeters thick into the bottom of the big drum.

A circular groove with a diameter of about 20 centimeters was cut in the middle of this log. Naturally, this work was done by the old wooden family.

The main function of this circular groove is to hold black powder.

When the log fell on the bottom of the big barrel, the five men of the Gaoshu tribe carefully poured the black powder contained in the skin into this groove, and at the same time inserted a long fuse into these In the black powder, the ignition is indexed to the outside.

After all this was done, another round wooden board about three centimeters thick was placed on it, and then a bag of fuse inserted into it was placed on the round wooden board.

Inside this kind of medicine bag is a clay pot, which contains a large amount of black powder, which is equivalent to an earthen grenade that has been enlarged several times. The outside of the clay pot was wrapped with several layers of cotton cloth, and the outside was wrapped with string.

Because the earthenware pot is too brittle, it is covered with multiple layers of cotton cloth to prevent the earthenware pot from being shattered during the fire.

The main function of the round wooden board is to isolate it, and its name is the isolation board. When the black powder in the log groove below is ignited, the large amount of gas generated when the black powder deflagrates will push the board upward, and at the same time shoot out the bag of powder on the log.

That’s right, after these five large barrels, logs and wooden boards were assembled, they formed a “super-heavy weapon” that China made the enemy frightened during the liberation period. This simple but powerful weapon was helpless by the enemy. Call it the "Unconscionable Cannon".

In fact, Shi Xiong remembered this kind of unscrupulous gun when he was making that earthen grenade.

The Unscrupulous Cannon is a unique war weapon invented by the soldiers of China. During the Chinese Liberation War, the soldiers lag far behind the enemy in terms of weapons and equipment. In order to reverse the situation where this weapon was not dominant, the soldiers invented a more powerful and simpler structure based on the principle of mortars. Lower-cost "local weapons".

The main body of this kind of native weapon is a gasoline can. At that time, no matter how poor the soldiers were, they could still get petrol drums or something. So the soldiers half buried the gasoline drum in the ground, padded the bottom with a thick enough log, and dug a groove in the center of the log to fill with propellant.

After the propellant is loaded, a circular plank is used as an isolation board on the top of the isolation board. On the isolation board, landmines, explosive packs and even cluster grenades and other warheads are placed. Then when the propellant is ignited, the huge driving force generated by the propellant will be It will push those various warheads to an area 200 meters away, and then the warhead will explode, causing huge damage to the enemy.

Because this thing was originally launched as a landmine, it was affectionately called a "flying cannon" by the soldiers, which means a cannon that can make landmines fly.

Because the bottom of the petrol can is filled with propellant, even if the petrol can is just a thin layer of iron, the power of the propellant is not enough to make the petrol can explode.

The warhead can take care of everything, from landmines to ordinary explosive kits, to cluster grenades and even large rocks, mainly things that can cause damage to the enemy. This stuff has been launched.

Of course, this kind of unscrupulous cannon that uses gasoline cans as barrels fires most of the shot.

This kind of unscrupulous gun can send a pack of ten kilograms of shots to an area more than 200 meters away, and the power of a pack of ten kilos of shots that explodes is quite terrifying.

We must know that the 155mm caliber M109A6 self-propelled artillery equipped by the U.S. Army in later generations only used M795 shells with a warhead charge of only 10.8 kilograms~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and that kind of shells fell down half a football field. All dead.

Although the explosives fired by unconscionable guns are not as powerful as the 155mm caliber shells, once the explosives explode, all people within 20 meters in diameter will be wiped out!

Especially the shock wave generated by the drug bag is more severe. Many enemies who were killed on the battlefield had no injuries at all, but their seven orifices bleed and their internal organs were all shattered. Therefore, the enemy called this type of artillery "unconscionable artillery."

Since then, the name of the unconscionable gun spread.

During the Korean War, the volunteers bombarded the American devils with unconscionable artillery, and the American devils who bombed thought they had been bombed by 408 mm heavy artillery. This shows how powerful this unscrupulous gun is.

The artillery thing, Shixiong, is temporarily unable to make, and simpler mortars cannot be made temporarily due to the problem of the processing technology of the shells, but if this kind of unscrupulous gun that can fire a random bag or even a big stone is let go, I'm so sorry for the "artifact" used by this soldier.

Shi Xiong is not short of black gunpowder in his hand. Although the steel plate is not so flat, it is not difficult to smash it out. So he asked Williams and the others to make five unscrupulous guns, which are ready to be verified during the expedition. a bit.

After these five unconscionable artillery pieces were made, they have been naturally experimented, but in the case of undead people, the power of this thing is really difficult to show. Moreover, at the beginning of the expedition, there was no chance to use a conscience cannon, so the power of these five "gadgets" really didn't even know Shi Xiong in his heart.

Now that the enemy is following up without death, let's use them to verify the actual combat power of this conscientious cannon!
