Artillery has always followed the movement of large forces, at least at the battalion and company level. However, muskets are different, whether they are large units of battalions, brigades, etc., or small units, or even scouts, scouts, action teams, intelligence officers, etc., who are two or three people, will carry muskets.

This year, there have been several major battles between the Huaxia Army and the Houjin Army, and even if the Huaxia Army is cautious, it is impossible for the battlefield to have no accidents, so the Houjin Army has captured several weapons used by different infantry in China.

Among them, pump-action rifles, revolvers, rear-loading rifles and other weapons have corresponding regulations, and key parts must be destroyed at the last moment. Only the flintlock institutions on the muskets were able to study and study a little.

However, even if it is only a study of the flint mechanism in this area, the various connections and structures in it are still quite difficult for the craftsmen of Houjin.

In the absence of casting and cutting process, no matter the size of the parts, it needs to be burned red and then formed by hand, and then some polishing, which is very time-consuming.

Even if it is so difficult, these iron parts are still not the most difficult part of the flintlock mechanism. Among the bolts, the most difficult thing is the copper reed, and the kinetic energy of the flintlock bolt impact all depends on this reed for energy storage.

When Houjin imitated the spring piece, just like when he imitated the red-clothed cannon, he sent a recruitment document and recruited several skilled craftsmen, and after several months of pondering, he came up with a suitable copper piece.

Now, the craftsmen who have figured out this craft are taking a group of apprentices and preparing to expand the production of springs. At the same time as the release of the list, there were dozens of craftsmen who had made bird guns before.

In this way, Hou Jin actually began to make his own bird gun at such an early age, although Chen Xin was fully mentally prepared for this, but I am afraid that when he heard the news, he would still sigh that the Jurchen tribe was really not to be underestimated in learning various tactics and weapons before entering the customs.

However, now the flintlock pistols imitated by Houjin are completely different from the rifles of the Huaxia Army, there is no way, they don't have so many special machinery. At the same time, this flintlock pistol is also more complex than the bird-gun structure used by the Ming Dynasty.

Compared with the Oh Sutra, the dragon head with the spring plate alone has a lot more parts than the bird gun ignited by the fire rope.

Later, it took a long time for the Golden Foundry to train a craftsman who could make flintlock pistols by himself.

Moreover, in this way, the size and specifications of the flintlock pistol made by each other are different, and it is completely impossible to achieve the interchange of parts, and if one part is broken, that is, the whole gun is broken.

Of course, Dolgon's people don't have that sense of standardization, and in the workshop, they have always done their own thing, as long as the parts made and the whole gun are made, after they come out, they just look at the same.

Dorgon reached over and took a closer look at the flintlock pistols, small particles of flint, which were attached to the dragon head using a bolt-like mechanism.

This kind of bolt is not a hidden high-tech in this era, even on ordinary arquebuses, there are such things, such as the tail of the arquebus chamber, which is actually sealed with bolts to ensure that it does not leak and burn the user.

The flintlock pistol is made into such a complex structure because there is an energy-storing spring plate and a series of related structures inside the faucet.

At the moment when the trigger is pulled to fire the faucet (hammer), the mechanism that compresses the spring blade suddenly releases a powerful kinetic energy, causing the flint to shoot out and shoot sparks on the other ignition mechanism.

Because of this series of linkage actions, the structural strength required for the flintlock pistol, including the trigger and bolt materials, is much higher than that of the bird.

In addition, for the craftsmen and techniques in the post-gold industry, the production of iron sheets for rolling gun barrels is also a big technical bottleneck.

All of this shows that although Houjin imitated such a few flintlock pistols, they simply did not have the ability to carry out large-scale assembly in a short period of time.

After all, at this point in time, the time of lining up to shoot has not yet arrived.

。 ”

The deputy general surnamed Wang whispered to Dolgon, "Lord Belle, this kind of self-made fire, it is very difficult to make it, at present, there are only a dozen craftsmen who can skillfully make self-made firecrackers, and they can produce up to thirty or forty firebird guns every month, if you want to do more, I am afraid that the slaves can only ask the master for help with a cheeky mouth, and ask each flag to transfer some craftsmen to help." ”

Dolgon nodded slightly, looking thoughtful, but he did not directly and clearly answer the lieutenant surnamed Wang. His hand was still rubbing against the so-called self-generated guns.

He could clearly see and feel that the shell of the bolt had been carved with some delicate and graceful patterns, and it was obvious that this was a gift specially prepared by the minions here for him Dolgon.

Dolgon didn't say anything about this, that is, he didn't say he liked it or he hated it, he just motioned to Vice General Li from Wuzhen Chaoha on the side to come over and try these self-generated firecrackers.

Under the close watchful eye of several accompanying Bayalas and Goshkhas, three Han soldiers from Wuzhen Chaoha came over and picked up flintlock pistols and pulled the trigger on a row of wooden targets in the far open area outside the house.

Suddenly, two flames exploded, and two violent roars were heard at the same time, and two of the three flintlock pistols that had been arranged for experimental shooting were successfully fired.

And the other one who was left was still there with some scrambling operations. He pulled the hammer again and pulled the trigger, but, who knows, two normal firing procedures in a row failed to fire the flintlock pistol.

All the Baylors, ministers, and officers of Houjin were watching the soldier who failed to shoot continue to make new attempts and efforts, ready to make up for his possible mistakes.

The forehead of the deputy general surnamed Wang was already in a cold sweat, and even his hands and feet had begun to tremble slightly, and the craftsmen who followed him were already so frightened that they knelt down and shook like chaff at this moment, not daring to make any other movements.
