I am one year older than Chongzhen

Chapter 226 Two shots in one minute
3000 troops were drawn from the base area, and the total number of regiment artillery accompanying the army was as high as [-] to [-].

If the method of concentrated salvo is adopted to counter the intensive charge of the enemy's cavalry, [-] to [-] iron balls and lead bullets weighing three or four coins can be fired at one time.

This is literally a hundred steps, a rain of bullets formed at a distance that the bows and arrows and spears of cold-armed cavalry could not reach.

When the Tartars and Jiannu fought against the infantry of the Ming army, they would not directly attack the well-formed army formation at first.

Because the Ming army had chariot camps, muskets, artillery, and firearms such as Shenhuo Flying Crows and swarms of bees.

The Jiannu and Tartar cavalry used the method of shooting arrows and spears in circles around the formation of the Ming army to exhaust the Ming army.

The effective killing range of the Ming army's bird guns and tiger squat guns that fired shotguns was less than a hundred steps, and the rate of fire was much slower than that of bows and arrows.

Constantly suffering losses when shooting each other, coupled with the fact that the vast majority of the Ming army has no faith and belief, but has resentment against the court and the chief.

In a disadvantaged situation, when he couldn't hit the enemy, but saw that Pao Ze was being shot continuously, he collapsed after not holding on for long.

The regiment artillery that can kill a large area with a hundred steps is completely different, and it becomes a heavy loss if the enemy cannot hit his own side.

Dare to spread around in circles, and beat him into a sieve with people and horses.

In theory, the regiment cannon can fire two shells in one minute.

Huang Yi has strong national self-esteem, and firmly believes that what Europeans can do, Han people can do, and even do better.

People can train gunners who can shoot twice in one minute, and the base area can train Han artillerymen who can shoot two shots in less than one minute.

Huang Yi referred to the information in his mobile phone to write the artillery drills of the base, and selected [-] teenagers who were better at arithmetic and could already write [-] Chinese characters silently to learn, train, aim, and fire artillery.

These teenagers are Han Chinese slaves liberated from Mongolian tribes, and they are particularly able to endure hardship and endure.

After being rescued, they were able to eat and clothe themselves warmly, and they were all grateful to Huang Yi. Every time Huang Yi taught them lessons and told them stories, all the teenagers watched and listened intently...

They were very excited when they learned that if they learned how to fire a cannon and hit it accurately, they might be able to kill and injure dozens of Jiannu and Tartars with one shot.

Without him, every Han who has been reduced to slavery has deep-rooted hatred buried in his heart, and it is his life's wish to be able to kill Jiannu and fight Tartars!
……

The base area is not the mud mold casting method.

This method was widely adopted at this time, because each handmade clay model is unique, so the cast cannon is also unique.

Therefore, when calling a certain cannon, it is necessary to dispatch gunners who have used it and adapted to the temper of the cannon at the same time.

Casting cannons in the base area is a method of recycling steel molds.

Unified standard steel modules are combined into cast gun steel molds for repeated use of quartz sand, which saves man-hours and costs, and is also conducive to standardization.

The inner mold water cooling method invented by Thomas Ding Rodman was also adopted, and the process of burying the whole mold in fine sand to make it cool slowly was adopted.

Therefore, the smoothness and quality of the inner walls of the artillery cast in the base area is far ahead of this era. The cannons of the same caliber and specifications are all carved out of the same mold and are basically the same.

There is no such fucking thing as every cannon has its own temper.

As early as when the base began to produce industrial products, Huang Yi announced the units of measurement and unified measuring tools and rulers.

The parts in the base area have uniform standards. The Lumi guns produced in the past and the flintlock guns that are now mass-produced can completely replace each other.

After all, artillery is a big guy, and it is easier to unify the size of parts.

In theory, artillerymen trained in base areas can skillfully use artillery produced in any base area.

It's a pity that due to limited steel production, there are too many places that need steel in the base area, so the casting of cannons can only be done slowly.

First of all, it is necessary to cast four or five guns in a month, and the focus is on casting the three-jin regiment cannon.

Slow work produces meticulous work, and it is also good to take it slow.

Liu Han and other big craftsmen and young craftsmen who can write and calculate are gradually integrated. As the level of craftsmanship gradually improves, the yield of finished products can be increased, waste can be reduced, and production can be increased.

Huang Yi, who returned to the base area, was still very busy, not only busy with military and civil affairs, but also busy with cheating.

Every ten days and a half months, I will discuss with Lan Jinkui and the best blacksmiths, carpenters, cobblers, glazers, jade craftsmen, etc. in the base area how to finalize the luxury passenger carriage.

There is no way, the base area needs competitive products to make huge profits.

Tuanpao is a good thing. If it is exported as a product, it will definitely earn dozens of times the profit.

But can this big killer be sold?

The enemy has a regiment of artillery, and Huang Yi may be killed by a single shot when he charges, because the body armor and stab-proof clothing will certainly not be able to withstand the rain of dozens or hundreds of bullets!

So you can only make a lot of money by packaging the luxury four-wheeled carriage as a luxury accessory!
Huang Yi draws blueprints for design, and craftsmen brainstorm together during the manufacturing process. Usually, they revise the blueprints and hand over the work of perfecting the design to Qi Xiaoshan.

The base areas not only give preferential treatment to soldiers, but also give preferential treatment to great craftsmen.

The thirteen households of artisans assigned by Governor Xuanda signed an order, all of whom were forced to do nothing.

Who knew there was such a big stone city outside the pass, they all lived in a small courtyard with three or five brick houses, or the kind with a small second floor.

He Shouye, Zhang Shi, Qi Dashan, and Lan Jinkui are in charge of contacting and arranging these great craftsmen.

Because I don't know whether their craftsmanship is solid, for the time being, they will only be given two taels of silver and four buckets of miscellaneous grains a month according to the treatment of ordinary craftsmen.

The monthly salary given by the base area to the master craftsman is equivalent to that of the seventh-rank general banner official, five taels of silver and one shiguzi per month.

Ordinary strong laborers who have no craftsmanship but only brute force, the monthly payment ranges from one tael to two taels!

Wages cannot be equal, if equal, it will cause the greatest injustice.

It is the same reason that in the planned economy era, fixed wages were paid without remuneration according to work, which led to overstaffing.

Even if it is purely physical work, with great strength and endurance, the stones mined may be twice as strong as those with little strength.

Of course, the base areas must adopt a piece-rate wage system to encourage more work and more pay!

Is there anyone who hates labor and is passive and sabotage?

So far, no, because human rights in base areas are relative. Those who are so poor that they have no food for the night are not counted as human beings and have no human rights.

It's not enough to kill all the lazy people, just drive them away!

But this kind of thing has not happened so far. The people in the base area are all working hard in order to get more pay and live a good life with their wives and children.
