Chapter 913: Climbing technology

"The emperor, do you want to send secret guards to Europe to continue to assassinate them?"
Li San looked a little guilty in the imperial library. After the war in the south was over, he returned to Qingzhou.
"No, there is so much difference between the appearance of the people of Dayu and the British. This is just like the Westerners in Dayu, they will definitely be stared at."
This incident is indeed not very pleasant for Xiao Ming, but the loss of talents is unavoidable. For the sake of money and status, there are always some people who are willing to abandon their conscience and commit betrayal, whether it is contemporary or ancient.
Instead of wasting energy on this matter, it is better to concentrate on development, so that domestic talents have a comfortable environment, and even attract Western technical talents.
"Yes, the emperor." Li Sanqing breathed a sigh of relief. This time he did his best. This time, the French and the British have done their best to protect those people, and their strength is limited. After all, the army had not yet reached it. Guangzhou.
Lying on a chair and looking out the window, Xiao Ming sometimes had to admit the fact that the ability of the secret guard is also limited, it is impossible to stare at everyone, and it is impossible to succeed in every mission.
To really solve the problem still requires a strong comprehensive national strength, and in the face of scientific awareness and national awareness in Europe, technology imitation will continue to appear in the future. What he needs to do is to always maintain the leading edge and make the formulation belong to the Great Chongqing. the rule of.
Ignoring this matter, Xiao Ming said to Li San: "By the way, now Jiangnan is stable, you will recall the idle personnel and let them go to the Japanese and Western colonies to listen for information. These sticks are in Da Yu. The country is so happy, it's time for them to pay the price."
Li San nodded in excitement, the internal chaos calmed down, and now the country of Da Yu was glowing with unprecedented potential. Consistent with the outside world was their next strategy.
Having said this, Xiao Ming asked Li San to go back, and then asked Song Changping, Su Liangcai, and Lin Wentao who had been waiting outside the door to call over.
"His Majesty, see your Majesty."
The three said in unison.
Nodded slightly, and let the three of them flatten, Xiao Ming looked at Song Changping and said, "You come to me, is there any new progress in the rifle?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, this time the subordinates are here to stop the manufacture of Falcon rifles and produce a new rifle that the subordinates have just tested successfully."
"Oh?" Xiao Ming showed interest, and he said, "What rifle is this?"
"Pull a bolt action rifle after rotating. After pulling the trigger, the firing pin of this rifle will pierce the paper shell. The bullet hits the primer and detonates the bullet. Compared with the Falcon rifle, the stability is much higher. A lot of improvement, Xiaguan thinks this kind of rifle is more convenient than using flash hider.
Song Changping said every word.
Xiao Ming showed a slight smile. In fact, the Falcon rifle was only an upgrade that Xiao Ming did not want to waste the conquering rifle. However, this type of revolving rear-action rifle is the future direction of gun development.
According to Song Changping’s description, he was basically sure that the rifle he made this time was similar to the Dreiser rifle. The main point of this gun is the bolt that can be rotated and pulled, and the hollow position of the bolt is a spring and A firing pin pierces the ammunition by pulling the spring back and pulling the trigger to release the pressure of the spring. This principle is actually not difficult.
The hard part is the strength of the firing pin. The weak point of contemporary Dreiser rifles is the fragile firing pin.
But now Dayu has a high-strength alloy that can produce sufficiently hard knives, which is naturally no problem for them.
In addition to the firing pin, there is another problem with the air tightness of the breech gun. Compared with the breech gun, the air tightness of the breech gun cannot be compared with it, which is why the breech gun It appeared in the 15th century, but it has not been used on a large scale.
Because of the poor air tightness, the breech gun will be reduced in range and power, but the relatively flexible combat method makes up for this shortcoming.
As for the breech gun, the real solution to the air-tightness problem is the emergence of metal shell bullets, but it is a pity that he does not have the ability to build a metal bullet production line.
Thinking of this, he looked to Su Liangcai. Now that more than a year has passed, the thermal power plant in Qingzhou has been built intensively. In order to fully support him, the cabinet has given money and people unconditionally.
Everyone is waiting for Qingzhou to enter the power era, and among these people, Xiao Ming is the most yearning, because he has come from the power era, he naturally understands the benefits of electricity.
And these days, when he searched for the content of the technology spar, he also found the technology of the nuclear fusion power station. He felt deeply about this technology that is still struggling to be pursued today.
Because once this technology is realized, it will mean the coming of the era of unlimited power.
But although this is very tempting, he can only think about it now, after all, he is still far from his current level, and he has a long way to go.
"This rifle is indeed very unique~EbookFREE.me~ In this case, follow-up rifles should use this rifle, but the air tightness of the breech gun still needs metal shell bullets to solve this problem. ."
When speaking, Xiao Ming looked at Su Liangcai, "Su Liangcai, although this problem belongs to Song Changping, it won't work without your electricity. The production of metal shell bullets requires stable energy and mechanical power."
The purpose of Su Liangcai’s visit this time was for the thermal power plant. He said: "The emperor, the thermal power plant can basically be completed in the second half of the year, but the current production of the transmission line is a problem. One is copper and the other is electric wire. Insulation, this is a big problem."
It is said that this Xiao Ming suddenly became big. For the country where copper resources are scarce, copper is money. With the improvement of industry, more and more places are used for copper, whether it is wires or motors. A lot of copper.
But even so, these copper extrusions are still there. The most important thing is the insulation coating. In the field of wire and cable, the insulation coating is generally divided into two types: plastic and rubber.
Plastic is currently impossible. Rubber is available, but not much, and even if the Dutch sell him rubber, the price is high.
If the price of rubber cannot be lowered, the future industrial development will obviously be restricted.
"Let’s use rubber to produce insulated wires. Roll the copper wire in the hot rubber once. After cooling, it will become the wire. If you don’t understand, go to Lutong again. He will help you solve this problem. Things can't be delayed." Xiao Ming made up his mind.
For him, Qingzhou's industry is now experiencing a bottleneck. Some things cannot be produced without electricity, such as aluminum.
In addition, there are electroplating and electrolysis to produce chemical gases. Of course, the most important is the technology of electric welding, which is the key to the production of ironclad ships.
