My Life Simulator

After Tong Zhilin visited, Lu Li immediately dispatched agricultural experts.

These agricultural experts brought the tenants from Lujiazhuang, farming cattle, and seeds of various crops to the Zhujing Thousand Households Institute in Tong Zhilin and launched a vigorous spring ploughing.

In addition to farming, the construction of Lu Li's "industrial zone" also requires manpower. Many people from Tong Zhilin's Thousand Households Office were also invited to work to provide money and food, which can be regarded as alleviating Zhu Jing's problem of lack of food for thousands of households.

Commander Liu Jinshanwei found out about this and immediately found Lu Li, saying: They are all brothers, so you can't favor one another!

Lu Li immediately agreed that Jinshanwei’s spring plowing production would be all done by these agricultural experts with the team. The seeds were also provided by Lu Li, and he also recruited people from Jinshanwei. As long as they are willing to come and can work, they will need all of them. Money for food.

As a result, Jinshanwei couldn't help but be grateful to Lu Li.

The progress of infiltrating Jinshan Guardian was much faster than expected.

At first, Lu Li thought that after Tong Zhilin's cooperation here for a while, others would see the benefits before joining, but he didn't expect Jinshanwei to be so poor that he couldn't wait to rely on it when he saw a little benefit.

That's really... Orcs will never be slaves unless they provide food and shelter.

As a result, Lu Li's box of pearls continued to be spent again.

Spending money is like running water, but the work progress has increased substantially.

In addition to the manpower for agricultural production, in Luli's industrial zone, brick kilns, coking, ore dressing, iron-making blast furnaces, and even various workshops have received a large number of manpower, and various infrastructure construction has been accelerated.

Lu Li didn't take care of agricultural production. The agricultural experts who had been instructed, took the tenants and Jinshanwei's staff in the family, and worked enthusiastically, without Lu Li's intervention.

Lu Li focused his energy on the workshop area.

In order to facilitate the entry and exit of raw materials, Lu Li repaired the official road from Lujiazhuang to Huating County and built a port wharf on the bank of the Jing River near the workshop area.

I have to talk about cement as a building material.

In the Ming Dynasty, there was actually a prototype of cement, called sanhe soil, and its composition ratio was similar to that of cement. It only needs to be mixed and burned.

When Lu Li saw Ming dynasty craftsmen building roads and building sanhe soil, he remembered...Cement is also a big killer!

The principle of cement is actually very simple. High school chemistry can handle it. Lu Li, who has passed numerous college entrance examinations and even studied engineering, is not a problem getting out of a cement kiln.

Therefore, in addition to brick kilns and coal kilns, a cement kiln was built on a hilltop in Lujiazhuang.

Although there is not enough steel to make reinforced concrete, but... using bamboo poles instead of steel bars can be used, and the effect is not bad.

The emergence of cement has greatly accelerated the progress of Lujiazhuang's infrastructure construction, and even saved money.

After arranging these infrastructure projects, Lu Li plunged into the workshop and started making guns.

The blast furnace produced the first furnace of steel.

After sampling and testing, Lu Li confirmed that these steels are all qualified medium-carbon steels, with higher strength and hardness than low-carbon steels, but not as brittle as high-carbon steels. They are suitable for making gun barrels.

Speaking of making gun barrels, many people's first impression is... drill!

In fact, this is very inefficient, and the processing is more complicated and difficult.

The best way to make gun barrels is the "seamless steel pipe" manufacturing method.

The blast furnace is opened and the molten steel flows out. When the steel becomes solid, a series of rotating extrusion mechanisms are connected behind it, just like kneading dough, kneading the red steel into a steel rod.

When the red steel is twisted into a steel rod, a core bar is extended from the end of the rotating extrusion mechanism. These red steel rods continue to rotate and squeeze, and the core bar penetrates the red steel rod.

Cut off and take off the core strip, which is a complete seamless steel pipe. Change the upper and lower core strips and continue to twist the steel rods, one by one seamless steel pipes are manufactured.

Cut and polish the outer circle of the manufactured seamless steel pipe on a lathe, and cut and polish the inner hole on a drill. After correction, a barrel blank is manufactured.

Then...the rifling needs to be made.

Speaking of rifling, there are many misunderstandings by the predecessors who always think that rifling is difficult to process and difficult to produce. In fact...this thing is simple.

The rifling is not drilled out, nor is it chiseled out, nor is it carved out, but...pull!

Fix the barrel of the gun and use something similar to the core of the seamless steel pipe through the inner hole. Cut a hole in this core strip, install a knife on it, and pull a rifle out.

Of course, it is necessary to design a mechanism to ensure that when the rifle is pulled, the core bar will rotate slightly, and the rifle drawn out is spiral.

For Lu Li, the barrel and rifling were easy to process, but the most difficult was the bolt.

The rifle fired by Lu Li is more than three hundred years ahead of the world in this era. It uses a rifle design similar to the French-Prussian War.

The lightning is ignited, the firing pin is fired, and the paper shell is fixed with ammunition. Except that it can't make a metal cartridge case, it is no different from the single-shot rifle shooting method of later generations.

Pull the bolt, open the barrel, load the bullet, return the bolt to lock, pull the trigger and shoot. With this method of shooting, the rate of fire can hit the whole world, and a dozen or so shots per minute is not a problem.

The bolt and barrel require high-hardness and high-strength steel. The main parts that bear the impact of the gunpowder explosion are the barrel and bolt.

Fortunately, this is still not a problem. Add a little manganese ore when making iron. The strength, hardness, elasticity and toughness are all sufficient.

Manganese ore is added more, high manganese steel is spring steel, and the spring of the bolt is also solved.

Day by day passed, and by the end of May, the first batch of 100 firing pin rear-mounted rifles had been manufactured.

In fact, the output should have been more, the barrels were easy to process, and there were already more than 2,000 barrels in the warehouse. It's just that the processing of the bolt barrel is much more difficult. Even with the hydraulic machine tool Lu Li had built, it didn't make too many bolt barrels.

On this day, Lu Li walked into the warehouse and saw a hundred steel guns in the warehouse, a bright smile appeared on his face.

With this weapon that has been leading the world for more than three hundred years, it is completely possible to sling the world.

"Has the quality been tested?"

Lu Li picked up a rifle and stretched out his hand to pull the bolt. The polished barrel of the gun was finely polished and bright, and it looked like a mirror.

"It has been tested. All testing methods and procedures are checked and accepted in accordance with the quality inspection standards given by you."

Guo Dayuan, the master craftsman in charge of gun manufacturing, quickly answered.

This Guo Dayuan was originally a blacksmith of Jinshanwei. He used to be responsible for making muskets, but... Jinshanwei rotted into a pot of porridge, and the craftsmanship of gunmaking was not mixed with food.

When he arrived at Lu Li, Guo Dayuan was finally able to display his specialties.

"Has it passed the quality inspection?"

Lu Li nodded, "Well, I'll try the gun!"

Walking out of the warehouse with a rifle, Lu Li took another box of fixed-loaded ammunition from the ammunition warehouse, turned and walked to the shooting range opened near the forest.

"My lord, I'm ready to test the target!"

When he arrived at the shooting range, Guo Dayuan pointed to the target erected on the shooting range and said to Lu Li: "According to the adult's request, I have prepared a 100-meter target, a 200-meter target, a 400-meter target, and an 800-meter target. The targets are all mounted on it. A ten millimeter steel plate was put on."

During this period of time, Lu Li's unified weights and measures have achieved good results, at least Guo Dayuan, a Ming Dynasty craftsman, is already a mouthful of international units.

"Good job!"

Lu Li nodded, walked to the shooting position, and put the ammunition on a table in the shooting position.

Lu Li didn't start shooting right away, so Lu Li observed the gun first.

This rifle has a total length of 1.2 meters, a total weight of ten kilograms, and a caliber of 10 mm. It uses a paper shell to hold black powder and fires a 10 mm cone-shaped lead bullet. The gun is equipped with a forty centimeter long three-sided bayonet.

It looks decent, almost the same as the rifle used during the invasion of the Eight-Power Allied Forces.

Don't know how powerful it is?

Lu Li pulled the bolt open, took a paper shell bullet into the barrel, pushed the bolt to lock the chamber, raised his rifle and aimed at the 100-meter target ahead, and pulled the trigger!

"Boom!"

A burst of gunpowder sprayed out of the muzzle, and the plume of smoke burst more than two meters away.

Black powder is so smokey. This is no way.

The recoil of the launch made Lu Li sway slightly, and the bullet that came out of the gun whizzed through the air, blasting heavily on the steel plate of the 100-meter target ahead.

Lu Li took the gun and walked up to the 100-meter target, and saw a hole in the steel plate of the 100-meter target.

It is very scary to penetrate 10 mm steel plate in 100 meters! Even iron cans with full body plate armor can be matched.

Next, Lu Li tested a 200-meter target, a 400-meter target, and an 800-meter target.

The two-hundred-meter target also penetrated the steel plate.

The steel plate did not fully penetrate the 400-meter target, and the bullet stuck on the steel plate.

There is only one pit in the steel plate for the 800-meter target.

But... this is already scary!

The effective range is 800 meters. What is the concept?

It's no wonder that when the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded, Seng Gelinqin's 100,000 cavalry charged and was destroyed by platoon guns, and the enemy had only a dozen casualties.

The cavalry charges at least one minute at a distance of 800 meters.

In this minute, the firing pin breech rifle can be fired about fifteen times.

There were 16,000 people in the Eight-Power Allied Forces, and even if only 10,000 people lined up to shoot, 150,000 rounds of bullets could be fired in one minute! Not even artillery!

This overwhelming rain of guns and bullets will kill you if you touch it, or if you wipe it, it's no wonder that the 100,000 cavalry charge was directly destroyed.

If this battle between cold weapons and hot weapons still does not reflect the power of the firing pin breech, then another battle.

During the Franco-Prussian War, Prussia used a firing pin breech, and France used a front-mounted flintlock. The end is... the French army of six hundred thousand was blown up!

Now, with such a rifle that has been ahead of the world for three hundred years, it is enough to crush all dissatisfaction.

"Very good! Very good! This gun is good."

Guo Dayuan, who was next to Lu Lichao, praised: "Guo Dajiang worked hard and rewarded a hundred taels of silver. The remaining craftsmen's wages doubled this month."

"Thank you, sir!"

Guo Dayuan couldn't help himself. Working under Master Lu was really pleasant. No beating or scolding, enough money and food, and rewards from time to time. Such a hundred officials are really too rare.

"My lord, we have also made samples of the revolver you mentioned."

After thanking him, Guo Dayuan reported another piece of good news to Lu Li.

"Oh? Take it and take a look."

The revolver was also designed by Lu Li.

Although the revolver has shortcomings such as poor sealing and short range,... it can fire continuously. This advantage is enough to make people ignore all its disadvantages.

Imagine that when the enemy rushed to the front of the army in a rain of guns and bullets, each soldier took out a revolver and fired several shots in a row, ha ha!

This is to eliminate the enemy on the assault route without giving him a chance to get close at all.

A moment later, Guo Dayuan sent a revolver.

Compared to later revolvers, this revolver is now much larger.

Steel quality and processing technology cannot reach the heights of later generations, and there is no way to increase the volume and weight.

Lu Li took the revolver and squeezed it, weighing about three catties. It's not too heavy, it's about the same weight as the current flintlock gun.

The ammunition is still a 10mm paper shell fixed-load ammunition, but the charge is less than that of the rifle, and the size of the bullet is also smaller.

The ammunition capacity is only five rounds, and the revolver drum is a circle larger than the revolver of later generations.

Loaded the bullet into the revolver drum, turned on the hammer, Lu Li raised the gun and aimed it at the 100-meter target in front of him, squeezed the trigger "bang, bang," and shot the five-way bullet.

With Lu Li's marksmanship, only two of the five bullets at the 100-meter target hit the target, and the other three bullets did not know where they flew.

And when the gun was fired, there was smoke and fire in the gap between the drums, which was far worse than the revolver of later generations.

Re-adjust the target, the 50-meter target can hit accurately, the 30-meter target can half-penetrate the steel plate, and the 20-meter target can penetrate the steel plate.

The effective killing distance is 50 meters~www.ltnovel.com~ The armor-breaking distance is 30 meters, and the killing distance is 20 meters.

Such power was already very good for 1561!

"Let the escorts conduct a shooting test for half a month. If there are no problems, the production can be finalized."

Lu Li glanced at Guo Dayuan and said with a smile: "The rifle is named Jiajing Type 40 rifle. The revolver... is called the revolver."

Lu Li also said casually about the naming of the two guns.

In later use, the name of the Jiajing 40 rifle was widely accepted, but the revolver was given a very "earth" name, called "Five Lianxiang".

Regarding this, even if he later came to a high position, the great general of the Kingdom of Upper Pillar Land, who was powerful in the world, couldn't be widely recognized by the people at all, and he couldn't change the name that would get rid of the dirt.

Lu Li could only sigh at this, forget it, let's do it! The more the soil, the more combat effectiveness!
