Sword and Magic and Taxi
Chapter 42: 3 Musketeers one
Under Zhao Mai’s “suggestion”, Thok the dwarf prepared to make three muskets at the same time, each of which had a double-barrel structure and the same barrel diameter. Green hopes that his weapon can be smaller, preferably not more than the size of a dagger, and definitely not larger than a short sword; Zhao Mai hopes to be slightly larger than that, so he can add a bayonet to use it as a short spear.
The idea of adding knives once again inspired Sock. The dwarf slapped his head suddenly and decided to install a hammer on his big musket, and use it as a warhammer after firing.
"This will affect the balance, right? The front part is so heavy, isn't it very laborious to handle it?" Zhao Mai asked puzzled.
"What?" Sock didn't hear the name clearly. He was checking the tools in the rented blacksmith's shop. The anvil weighing several hundred pounds was lifted by his hands and moved easily and smoothly.
Zhao Mai wiped the sweat that burst out suddenly, um, the stove beside it must be too hot. "It's okay, I mean are the tools here enough?"
"Almost, the human blacksmith shop is at this level. I will check the quality of the pig iron. You can sit here for a while. By the way, don't move, I have arranged things according to my habit."
Zhao Mai shook his head, saying that he would never move. Looking at this blacksmith's shop, I couldn't help but admire Green's efficiency. Sock's effort to eat a full meal--including four chickens, two lamb legs, a barrel of ale, and a pot of potatoes--Green sold the salt and rented the blacksmith's shop. Now he is holding the list listed by Zhao Mai, taking advantage of the few shops (black shops) selling alchemy items that are not closed yet, as much as possible to prepare everything at once.
I didn't need to be so anxious, but when I heard that Zhao Mai was going to participate in the Druid training in five days, his energy came up. According to Green’s words: “It’s nothing if I can help you at this time.”
"Oh, the furnace temperature here may not be enough. I use a magma furnace in Jandhof, and only there can be strong enough steel."
"Janderhof, is that your hometown?"
The dwarf took a deep breath through his nose and exhaled it slowly, with a happy expression on his face. "That's my favorite place, even if everyone doesn't support me to build a musket. Jandhof is located under the continuous mountain of thoughts. If you start from here, you will go east all the way, crossing a large lake, A piece of mountain, and then across a piece of plains. I must go back, with new ideas, with your blessings, and want my family to prove that their ideas are not wrong."
"I will definitely visit you if I have a chance. I haven't seen what the city of dwarves looks like!" Zhao Mai decided to do his best to help Sock. He thought for a while and said, "The temperature of the stove, I will try, there should be a way."
Although it is not sure how much physics and chemistry on earth can play in this world, Zhao Mai believes that grinding coal for combustion into dust should be able to promote combustion and increase temperature. This is hard work, but it doesn't have to be as strong as the dwarf Thok. Zhao Mai was fine, so he took over the job.
Green came back soon, he hired a cart, and pushed two full bags of materials. "There is still some money left, but I suggest to keep it in my hands for the time being."
"This is a good idea, so let's do it. Come and help together and get the materials and utensils ready. Sock is recharging his energy, and he said he has to pray. Let us do more of what we can do first. ,is that OK?"
Green doesn’t think it’s a problem. Isn’t it just smashing a large piece of coal and then crushing it as much as possible? The shops adjacent to the blacksmith's shop were closed at this time, and even if they were doing work, it would not affect anyone's sleep. He saw that Zhao Mai attached great importance to the dwarf musket, and his interest was also raised.
After proving that powdered coal can reach a higher temperature, everyone's enthusiasm is further rising. You can get different metals at different temperatures. Zhao Mai doesn't understand the truth, but knows that the higher the temperature, the better. The bellows is not too deep, the key is just a flap that can only be opened in one direction. It is impossible to translate this sentence into a lingua franca, but it does not affect everyone's understanding of the truth.
The first day's work is mainly to determine the working environment, then draw process diagrams and arrange the division of labor. The dwarf was a little puzzled. He always worked when he had passion, and when he was tired, he drank ale. However, Zhao Mai insisted on letting the dwarves develop good working habits. Only by passing down the design drawings, so that more dwarves can understand the truth, can this matter be truly made into a career.
But in fact, the design drawings are more to give Zhao Mai the opportunity to stuff "private goods" inside. Regarding the structure of various firearms, he has read a lot on the Internet, and I can still make many suggestions. Since the products made this time are actually still shotguns and do not require any complicated design of reciprocating, automatic loading, and shell ejection, the focus is still on how to ignite and how to load them faster.
"Good steel is used on the blade, and loading, ignition and sealing are the blades of the musket." Zhao Mai talked about a set of theories, and Sock and Green only nodded and listened. "If we use paper shell ammunition, we can leave a spike at the end of the barrel, and the paper shell will be pierced when it is put in, exposing the burning powder inside. But the problem is how to accurately point the fire to the powder~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ Green shrugged. This is obviously not his strong point. He is determined to be a good listener and servant, so he doesn’t worry about the others. The dwarf seems to have something in his heart and writes and draws on the table with his fingers. After a while , He raised his head and said: "I have a good idea, please help me refer to it. "
The method of the dwarf is to use rune spells to accurately transmit the sparks produced by the collision of flint iron pieces to the bottom of the barrel and the tip of the thimble. This will increase a part of the cost, mainly used to purchase ruby powder and other materials. But good steel is used on the blade, and the dwarf agrees with this sentence. "You won't be afraid of getting wet in the rain."
"If you can go a step further, it would be better to use metal shells directly, so that you are not afraid of water at all." Zhao Mai said: "You make a cylindrical shell, open a small hole in the center of the lower end, and fill it in from there. Then seal it with a thin layer of wax. As long as the ammunition is loaded harder, the wax can be pierced and it can be ignited, right?"
"Tutor! Just do what you say!" The dwarf jumped and jumped happily: "Metal shell, metal shell! This is what our dwarves do best!"
Zhao Mai wiped his sweat and successfully added the private goods. If you continue to do this, maybe you can get out of the rifle soon... this world has its own knowledge, even if Zhao Mai doesn’t know how to mix thunder mercury, explosives, and medicine, it’s a complete one. There is always another solution for the technology tree (or magic tree).
The key now is to what extent the dwarf’s craftsmanship has reached. Zhao Mai looked at the tools in the smithy and didn’t know how to build a qualified barrel~www.wuxiaspot.com~Book friends are welcome to visit and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all at~www.wuxiaspot .com~For mobile users, please go to read.
