I, above the court, angrily rebuked the faint king

Zhengzhou's description in the map is actually not detailed, it only briefly introduces the working principle of the musket. the difference.

Zhengzhou picked up the musket and rubbed it in his hand. The feeling of using it surprised Zhengzhou.

Although Zheng Zhou was surprised that the public loser could make a musket, it did not exceed his expectations for the public loser.

But he never expected that the prototype of the new musket made by the public loser was actually made of steel as the main material, supplemented by hardwood as the protective gear.

Ironware is not rare in the medium and wide areas, and has even become one of the preferred options for armaments.

The application of steel is not widespread enough, and it can even be said that no one has mastered it. Even in Tokyo City, where the essence of a wide area is concentrated in one body, Zhengzhou has only seen steel twice.

In the middle and wide areas, steel is called iron crystal, and its price is higher than gold.

Gongshuo used such a large piece of iron crystal as the main material of the musket, so one can imagine how much they attach importance to the musket. If they can firmly attract them with power, it will probably be fine.

The Zhengzhou pull bolt is loaded, and the musket is finely crafted and very smooth.

After he was sure there was nothing wrong, he put the musket back into the box: "Wait for me for a day at most."

"One day later, it's still the same place. I'll show you the power of muskets with your own eyes."

The white-bearded old man's eyes were burning: "Okay, we are waiting for this moment."

"Just say what you need to prepare."

Zhengzhou shook his head, he wanted to do some preparatory work, but he couldn't do it with the help of a public loser.

After leaving the mansion, Zhengzhou first went to the fireworks shop to buy fireworks in large quantities. He knew that the public losers would deliberately send people to watch him, so Zhengzhou didn't go directly to buy gunpowder.

Although the effect of powdered black powder is not as good as that of granular gunpowder, it can only be dealt with temporarily at present. Anyway, it is just a test of power. It is done in one step, but the fun of testing and the room for improvement are lost.

After purchasing, Zhengzhou went back to the inn and locked himself tightly in the room. At the same time, the waiter in the inn, who had received a huge tip from Zhengzhou, was looking for a blacksmith to make warheads and shell casings with the sketches made by Zhengzhou.

Fortunately, when he was playing the game, he deliberately memorized the size of the barrel and the size of the bullet, so that he could be so confident. If it were someone else, he might not be able to grasp the exact size of the bullet for a while.

After Xiao Er went to do it, Zhengzhou waited for work with ease, and stayed in the inn to wait patiently.

Chapter 189 The first person to be killed by a gun in Cangyuan Realm

That night, Xiaoer came back from the blacksmith shop with the warheads and shell casings that Zhengzhou wanted.

In a place like Fengming Castle, it is natural not to require iron crystals to be used everywhere.

Ordinary iron, although not satisfactory, is barely usable.

A total of ten bullets and shells were made. Because Fengmingbao has the unique advantage of being a public loser, the blacksmith is also very professional. Although the bullets and shells made are not as exquisite as in the previous life, they can still be used.

Because the primer still needs to be made, there is a risk of failure, so Zhengzhou specially asked them to make a few more.

As for the primer, Zhengzhou originally thought it would be difficult to achieve, and even considered the caseless bullet that does not need a primer to support combustion.

Later, after asking Wang Shouren on the sidelines, Zhengzhou found out that the Song Dynasty had nitric acid and mercury, that is, mercury even a long time ago.

This is thanks to those immortal disciples who believe in longevity and specialize in alchemy.

Among them, Changshengzong made the greatest contribution.

If it weren't for their tireless research, there is still a long way to go to make a gun.

He asked the waiter in the inn to buy mercury and nitric acid, and Zhengzhou began to study the installation and testing of bullet primers.

In Zhengzhou's previous life, he was a person with a strong thirst for knowledge. In addition, when the man was young, he always had a dream of holding a gun, so he knew so much, but it was the first time in history to actually do it.

After the primer was made, Zhengzhou assembled many parts and spliced ​​them together, and the very simple musket bullets were in their infancy, but there was still a long way to go if they wanted to compare the various bullets of the previous life.

On the second day, in the early morning, Zhengzhou set off to the prefect's mansion, and took ten bullets made by himself.

He wasn't worried that the public losers would figure out how to develop it based on the principle of the bullet. These days, chemistry is still alchemy, so it's no wonder they can tell.

It is difficult to turn back when the thinking is limited.

If not, how could Zhengzhou be overtaken by some westerners who are proficient in aggression under the premise of leading the world in various inventions and creations in his previous life.

Ideas are really important sometimes.

The white-bearded old man Shuchou couldn't wait to test the power of the musket immediately after he came to Zhengzhou.

If the power is really huge.

As one of the hundreds of schools of thought who developed this thing for the first time, their public losers will definitely leave a strong mark in the world.

He was impatient, but Zhengzhou was leisurely, not in a hurry.

One out of ten bullets can always be fired.

If there is no accident, as long as the test is successful, the public loser will fall into complete madness.

So before that, he had to negotiate a covenant with the public loser.

Lest they repent at that time, or play other tricks.

"I've brought the things needed for firing. Before the test, don't we have to agree on the content of the covenant?" Zheng Zhou said.

Gong Shuchou said: "Isn't it too early for us to make a covenant before we have seen the power of muskets?"

Zheng Zhou said: "It's not that we want to sign directly, but we will make a rough covenant first, and discuss it in detail after the musket's power test is completed."

Gong Shuchou knew Zhengzhou's strength, so he didn't dare to refute, and nodded in response.

What Zhengzhou said is correct, there is nothing wrong with making a covenant first.

"According to Mr. Zheng's request, I will let Gongshuguo do it now. Mr. Zheng can rest assured that this covenant will satisfy you."

Zheng Zhou sat on the chair, touched the tea with his teeth and lips, and put it down: "Whether you are satisfied or not, let's talk about it after he has made a plan."

Gong Shuchou smiled awkwardly and said nothing more.

Not long after, Gongshu Puppet returned to the study with a piece of paper in his hand, presumably it was a covenant.

He handed the paper to Zhengzhou. After Zhengzhou read it roughly, he nodded secretly. This covenant is really good. Gongshugou wrote in the covenant that if the power of the musket can kill ordinary people at fifteen feet, they will believe in the power of the musket. Wei Li, willing to swear allegiance to the new dynasty again.

In the calculation method of the middle and wide areas, fifteen feet is 50 meters.

As long as there are no accidents to kill someone at 50 meters, Zhengzhou is quite confident.

Of course, this is also the bottom line of the public losers. Only when the power of muskets reaches this bottom line will they consider becoming lackeys of the new dynasty. If they can’t, even if muskets are the weapon that ushers in a new era, it’s not worth giving up their freedom.
