Why can Greek fire shoot so far?

There must be more than just the siphon principle.

The device that Arhan had brought back was incomplete, missing a very important part.

It may have been because of that part that the Greek fire was able to spew out so far and burn the enemy's ships.

Xia Hongsheng had to go back and think about this problem, and he didn't have a clue for the time being.

In fact, the most convenient way is to let the accompanying caravan collect information about the countries along the way, and the information about the topography and landforms, and other information of the espionage try to see the Greek fire jet device and draw a drawing. However, Greek fire, as the ultimate secret weapon of Byzantium, was kept strictly secret and not even allowed to be written down. In order to prevent the enemy from snooping on the relevant secrets, and even rarely use them in war, it is better to sacrifice soldiers than to show weapons unless there is an emergency. It's not easy to get your hands on the drawings.

Xia Hongsheng thought about this question in his heart, and after asking about the production of new weapons in the military aircraft workshop, he left the military aircraft workshop.

Although the old man said so, it is true that he used a wine jar to fill gasoline and threw it out, and then the rocket was shot over, and the fire was burning, which saved a lot of trouble. However, the problem is that wine jars are not easy to carry in large quantities, and if they are small, how far can they be thrown out by large people? If you defend the city and siege the city or fight a naval battle, you can use a trebuchet to throw it out, but if it is a short battle, it can't be used. Xia Hongsheng's purpose is to make it lighter and smaller, so that the army can be easily carried and used.

Seeing that the time when the Tang Dynasty started a war with the Turks in history, the most powerful thing for the Turks was the cavalry, Xia Hongsheng also thought that he could use the spray of gasoline flames to block the charge of the Turkic cavalry. But now there is a bottleneck. In addition, at noon, it suddenly realized that the idea of a steel ship was unrealistic. It's hard to achieve, so the mood is even worse at the moment.

When they arrived at the military academy, they also heard Ma Zhou talk about the recent situation, and the two discussed the final exam and the freshman entrance test, it was already sunset, and they didn't plan to go back again, and they were ready to spend the night in the military school.

The small suite behind his office hasn't been lived in yet, so it's being cleaned up. I didn't bring Qi Yong with me, so I walked around the campus of the military academy.

Only then did I notice that the original military school had been built again without knowing when.

I found a secluded place to sit down, ready to empty my mind, but I said that my lazy and lazy problem has not changed, I just like to go and shake off the shopkeeper, and I don't want to care about anything after arranging people.

Suddenly, the trumpet sounded in the military academy, and after a while, the originally peaceful campus became noisy. After class in the afternoon, the students passed by in groups, talking, laughing, and making trouble. Looking at Xia Hongsheng's eyes, Xia Hongsheng suddenly had a sense of his own vicissitudes. I think back to my school days. In a trance, it was like a different world, and when you think about it, it is really a different world.

A few students seemed to take a walk after dinner and arrived at the lake. A few people washed their hands by scooping water from the lake, and sprinkled each other with youthful hearts.

But I saw a student holding a handful of water in both hands, putting his hands together in front of the other, and squeezing it hard, and the water was squeezed out of the crack in his tiger's mouth, forming a waterline, and rushed straight away from the student's back, wetting a piece, which made the man laugh proudly.

Xia Hongsheng grinned, remembering that he used to play like this when he was in school. But it's not squeezing water by hand, so the water is too little, and it's not far, just a little. In the evening self-study on a summer night, I drank an empty bottle of pure water, with a hole in the middle of the cap, filled with water, and the bottle body was squeezed, like a water gun. Eager to attract the attention of girls.,And I don't know how to speak.,The more you like a girl.,The more you want to tease her.,So I often fill a bottle of water.,Most of them squeeze into the girl you have a crush.。

Alas, how carefree my brother was at that time! Although they are the same age now, their hearts are different in the end!

Pouring a bottle of water to squeeze the girl with a crush can no longer be done!

Xia Hongsheng shook his head and sighed with a sense of the vicissitudes of life...... Alas! - Wait!

A thought, with the extremely clear memories in his mind, the picture of a long line of water squeezed out of the bottle of pure water wetting the hair of the girl he had a crush on suddenly occupied Xia Hongsheng's mind.

That's right!

Why do you have to stick to the Byzantine approach? If you want to spray gasoline, there is not only the siphon principle!

Gasoline is liquid, why can't Ben Gongzi make a special water gun, just like a water gun shoots water, and sprays gasoline out!

How easy to do with a water gun!

You can't do that kind of big water gun!

Water storage tank, sealed piston, air tank, sealed piston, inlet water pump...... The water tank is filled with water, and the air intake water pump is continuously pumped inside and outside by hand to make the air rush into the air tank, and the trigger is pulled, and the trigger pushes up the spring blade inside...... That's probably what happened!

The water gun is made of plastic, and now there is no plastic, it can be made of wood wrapped in brass, and it can also be flame retardant! When it's a big deal, add a light shield to block yourself so that the flames don't roll back!

It's the kind of oval on the top that I played when I was a child to fill water, and there is a round hollow plastic ball behind the handle, and when I played, I first twitched the piston in front of me a few times, and then pulled the trigger, and the water could shoot far away - this kind of water gun!

If you can, wrap the wood in brass to make a water gun, and replace the water in it with gasoline, so that you can take it with you! You can even make it bigger and add a light shield to the barrel, so that you can use the shield as a fulcrum to support the ground, and you can crouch behind the shield to prevent the flames from burning you!

This is the Datang version of the flamethrower!

If it can really be made, when the time comes, in the face of the charge of the Turkic cavalry on the battlefield, the Tang soldiers can take out the jet, put the shield to the ground, squat behind the shield, and even make a thing from the shield that can jam the fire fold and stretch it out in front of the muzzle, so that the person pulls the trigger behind the shield, and the gasoline is sprayed out, and then the flames are directly shot out, and the Turkic cavalry on the opposite side is too late to stop the horse, and it is not suddenly sprayed by gasoline and involved in the sea of fire!

As soon as he thought of this, Xia Hongsheng immediately stood up excitedly, and immediately turned back to his office, sat down and spread out the paper, and immediately began to draw on it.

He first had to make a water gun that could successfully shoot water out, and then he would improve the water gun so that it could spray "gasoline"! (To be continued.) )
