Chapter 520 Self-made Fire Gun(2/2)
"Hey, there are actually withered flowers on the inner wall of the gun tube?" Dorgon said in surprise, "Are the Ming soldiers stupid? Carving patterns on the inner wall of the gun tube is labor-intensive and time-consuming, and it will also affect the airtightness of the self-generated gun tube.
sex."
"Yes, yes, I heard Tang Ruowang talk about it." Hong Chengchou nodded.
The concept of air tightness must have been brought to Dorgon and other Manchu emperors and ministers by Tang Ruowang.
Tang Ruowang once told Dorgon very clearly that due to the craftsmanship, the inner diameter of each blunderbuss tube made by the Bingzhan Bureau was slightly different, but the size of all the lead pieces was the same, so it caused
Some self-generating gun tubes have better air-tightness, while others have poor air-tightness.
The direct manifestation is that the accuracy and penetrating power of self-generated fire guns will vary between good and bad.
Dorgon had heard twice from Vasinga and Yabulan that the Ming army's self-generated fire cannons were very accurate and far-reaching, so he wanted to see with his own eyes how sharp the Ming army's self-generated fire cannons were.
At that time, Dorgon ordered Cao Eryu to make a temporary target.
Then he couldn't wait to test-fire the Ming army's self-generated firecrackers.
However, the results of the test launch surprised Dorgon and others.
Facts have proved that the self-generated fire blunderbuss of the Ming army not only had extremely poor accuracy, but also had far less penetrating power than the self-generated fire blunderbuss of the Qing army. It could not even penetrate cotton armor fifty steps away.
"Is this really a self-generated fire gun used by the Ming army's scout cavalry?"
Dorgon had serious doubts about the self-generated fire gun in his hand.
Doesn't it mean that the self-generated fire guns of the army's scout cavalry can hit far and accurately?
Vasinga was also confused about this: "Master, this is really the self-made fire weapon of the Ming army's scout cavalry. My subordinates died for more than ten nights without stopping, and it was not easy to kill a Ming army's scout cavalry."
, and then captured this self-generated fire gun from the Ming army’s scout cavalry, it can’t be wrong.”
