Traveling through Great Qin: Father Qin Shihuang!

After listening to Zhao Che's explanation, Gong Shuchou immediately became interested.

The most research done in the Giant Spirit Palace on weekdays is the manufacture of various machinery and weapons, but this kind of bionic device is the first time they have seen it, which also opened a new research door for them.

"Don't worry, Lord Hou, I will definitely develop the one you want!"

After Shen Kuo agreed, he immediately took the information given by Zhao Che and began to ponder it carefully.

There are many fields where bionics can be applied, and it is definitely not just such a device that absorbs aura.

For Gongshuqiu and the others, this brand new research field is far more important than such a device for absorbing aura.

"Okay, I trust you!"

Zhao Che nodded, and then asked about the development progress of the weapon.

"How is the development progress of the Maxim heavy machine gun?"

"Master Hou, we are planning to report to you!"

Hearing this, Gong Shuchou immediately became excited.

The public loser is best at the research of war machinery. For the development of weapons in the field of war, the public loser is even absolutely ahead of the Mohists.

And when Gongshuchou saw the Maxim heavy machine gun for the first time, he was immediately shocked by the power of this weapon.

If this kind of weapon can be applied to actual combat and equip Daqin's army on a large scale, no matter what kind of cavalry or elite it is, it will be a joke in the face of such powerful firepower.

In the war of hot weapons, personal force will become the least important point.

Before Maxim, all beings were equal!

Therefore, Gongshuchou put all the research focus of himself and everyone in Gongshujia on the development of the Maxim heavy machine gun.

Finally, under the unremitting efforts of Gongshuqiu and others, after such a long period of research, they finally developed the manufacture of the Maxim heavy machine gun, and improved it under its already strong enough firepower. .

The newly developed heavy machine gun, Gongshuchou named it Suzaku, representing its powerful firepower.

"Tell me about Suzaku's data, can it be mass-produced now?"

"Reporting to Lord Hou, when I tested the Maxim heavy machine gun, I found that although this machine gun has powerful firepower, the wear and tear on the barrel is also very serious when it is used. If it is used for too long, the barrel will It will even melt due to the high temperature!"

"However, if the power is reduced in order to maintain the service life of the barrel, this kind of gun will lose its original meaning, so the minister thought of a way, that is to add a few more barrels!"

"Suzaku has three barrels in total. By adding a rotating wheel, they can be used in rotation. This not only increases the service life of the barrels, but also improves the firepower to another level!"

……

After hearing Gong Shuchou's words, Zhao Che couldn't help being a little surprised!

"Giant God, send a picture of Gatling!"

After Zhao Che's voice fell, a virtual projection instantly appeared in front of everyone, on which was a machine gun with a full six barrels.

"This...this is?"

When Gongshuchou saw Gatling, his face changed drastically, because the design of this machine gun was exactly the same as his own idea, and he even added three more barrels on his own basis.

The Suzaku developed by myself, with only three barrels, has increased its firepower to an incredible level. If it has six barrels, how powerful is the firepower?

"This gun is called a Gatling machine gun. As you can see, it has a full six barrels, which are also used by rotating. The theoretical maximum rate of fire can reach [-] rounds per minute, which is worthy of the name. Battlefield Meat Grinder!"

"Six thousand rounds per minute?"

Hearing Zhao Che's explanation, Gong Shuchou was deeply shocked.

Not only was he shocked by Gatling's strength, but more importantly, the idea that he finally came up with had already been realized by someone, even more advanced than him.

"It's nothing. In fact, you are already very powerful. After all, Daqin's hot weapons have just started."

Zhao Che comforted Gong Shuchou, and what he said was not a lie.

After all, Gatling was invented more than ten years earlier than the Maxim heavy machine gun, but it was still eliminated by the Maxim heavy machine gun that came from behind.

Although the rate of fire of the Gatling machine gun far exceeds that of the Maxim, it was replaced by the automatic Maxim with better performance and safety because it was hand-cranked when it was first invented and was prone to failure.

As for the Suzaku developed by Gongshuchou, although there are three fewer barrels, it is automatic. Compared with the original Gatling, it is naturally much stronger.

"Hou Ye is right. My Great Qin's firearms have just started, and there is still a lot of room for improvement. Suzaku is only the initial version. I will definitely find a way to optimize it."

Gong Shuchou quickly put away his frustration and made a promise to Zhao Che.

"The most important issue now is not whether Suzaku can continue to improve, but the most important thing is to ensure mass production as soon as possible. With this weapon, our Great Qin's future wars will become very simple."

"Here, my servant understands!"

Gongshuqiu and the others have been working hard to mass-produce the Maxim heavy machine gun, but the effect is not satisfactory. The main reason is the lack of corresponding machine tool technology.

Even if the Giant Spirit Palace has the technology to manufacture CNC machine tools, other conditions are simply not matched, and even the most basic energy and electricity are not available. Even if the CNC machine tools are manufactured, it is still empty without the Giant Spirit Palace.

"It seems that we have to supervise the establishment of the power station over there!"

Zhao Che patted Gong Shuchou on the shoulder to express his understanding.

But apart from energy, they can't develop CNC machine tools for the time being, because no one understands the corresponding technology, and even Zhao Che himself has only a half-knowledge.

"Let's use the machines in the military aircraft department to produce as much as possible. Even if there is no way to equip it on a large scale, as long as we can ensure that every 5000 troops in Daqin can be equipped with a Maxim heavy machine gun, and then have sufficient ammunition supply."

"Don't worry, Lord Hou, this is not a problem. In at most half a month, we will be able to deliver a sufficient number of Suzakus!"

"Suzaku?"

"That's right, Lord Marquis, of course the Maxim heavy machine gun is also fine, but compared to Suzaku, I still think Suzaku is more powerful!"

"Suzaku is actually better, so let's make Suzaku. Our Daqin army has a total of 30 troops. If there is one for every 5000 people, we only need [-], but the consumption of ammunition is relatively large!"
