Time travel rebellion, I'm serious

In fact, for seamless steel pipes and the like, the Han Army's current technology is not as good as the seamless steel pipes of the previous life.

Its quality is roughly the quality of water pipes.

Of course, this also has an advantage, that is, although the quality is a little bit worse, it is easy to use and powerful!

As for what Lu Shu said, it is true that forging armor from fine steel is not very good.

There is no way, after many experiments by the Han army, the current rockets and armor made of fine steel are really unable to stop them.

This means that the primer problem has not been solved yet, and flintlock ignition is still used. Otherwise, why would Liu Wu make armor? Wouldn't it be good for him to directly make firearms?

As long as you have a gun, I don't care how thick the armor you wear, if it can't shoot through you, the huge kinetic energy of the bullet will still beat you to death.

As for now, muskets are still not good, far less powerful than bows and arrows.

Not to mention anything else, among the current soldiers of the Han army, all archers can fire powerful bows, and can cause huge damage to the enemy within a range of [-] steps.

Specialized armor-piercing arrows, the armor equipped by oneself will be broken within eighty steps.

According to the impact speed of the armor, this short eighty steps is enough for the archer to shoot more than ten arrows.

As for crossbows with slow firing speeds, their flat shooting power will only be stronger, and even the best vine shields can be penetrated.

It can be said that without a primer, let alone a machine gun, a musket is useless.

To be honest, Liu Wu had never done it before, but the result left him scratching his head. Now that he was playing with muskets, he really had to queue up to be shot.

In the current situation of the Han army, it cannot be said that it is useless. It can only be said that apart from its huge momentum, it is of no use at all. Cold weapons are hammering hot weapons.

So Liu Wu was scratching his head. He finally understood why the Ming Dynasty had three-eyed blunderbuss.

Because after shooting three rounds, this thing can be used as a sledgehammer to smash it.

Or you can add a bayonet to the front of the musket and use it as a small spear.

To be honest, they are really not as good as archers and crossbowmen.

As for the cannon, it is also a despised thing, because it cannot be said to be useless, it can only be said that its usefulness is too small.

Who would have thought that the greatest use of this artillery is not in field battles, but in city defense.

As for why?

It was too heavy and there were mountains everywhere, slowing down the marching speed.

Of course, it is not that there are no field artillery. The Han army still has artillery for field use.

This kind of cannon is similar to the tiger crouching cannon. It is two feet long, has two iron claws on the head, and weighs thirty kilograms. When firing, it needs to be loaded with a hundred iron pieces weighing five cents and a stone bullet weighing three kilograms.

This kind of weapon has a longer range. A three-pound stone bullet can fly up to [-] steps, while a hundred iron bullets can kill within [-] steps, and the effective kill can be within [-] steps.

As for why?

This is because this field artillery fires in a fixed direction. Fifty steps away, a hundred iron bullets will basically fly higher than a person.

As for laying it flat, its recoil will be quite large and it needs to be specially fixed, which is not good for field battles.

So after this thing was developed, its actual role was to make up for the lack of firepower of the archers and cause great damage to the enemy at close range.

Its application scenario is more targeted at cavalry.

Of course, because its launch angle is fixed, it is also very good for siege when the amount of propellant is fixed.

At the same time, the rate of fire of this field gun is still low.

In this case, in order to make up for its range and firepower, the gun once again entered the eyes of the Shenji Battalion, providing faster and more intense fire support for the Shenji Battalion within a hundred steps.

Not only that, the Shenji Battalion's first three rocket launchers have also been improved. One of the current main battle rocket launchers is the current large-caliber rocket launcher, which can shoot up to [-] steps.

The other type is a flat-firing rocket launcher with a smaller caliber, mounted in a small vehicle, with a maximum range of [-] steps, but its lethality is too small.

Therefore, although these weapons have entered the Shenji Battalion, the actual situation is that they are only used for testing and training, and will not be used by the Han army as the main equipment of the Shenji Battalion.

Theoretically, if there is not much progress in artillery and gunpowder technology, the Tiger Crouching Cannon will be installed in various armies.

According to the current situation, it is best for a squadron to be equipped with a squatting tiger gun.

When necessary, the entire army can be assembled with squatting artillery to cause greater damage to the enemy in a dense formation.

As for the Shenji Battalion, they will still focus on long-range attack with rocket launchers, supplemented by close-range defense with tiger crouching cannons.

Then the Han army discovered that the steel production was sufficient, but the gunpowder production still could not keep up! !

Calculating the cost, it is really like a cannon firing, and a thousand taels of gold.

It is true that even the wealthy Han army cannot afford to fight such a battle!

So the current situation is that if a weapon really wants to be used on a large scale in the military, in addition to experimental exercises, it also needs actual combat data to support it.

The long-range rocket launcher has proven its power, effectiveness and reliability through several actual combats.

Even the trebuchet has received extremely good feedback in actual combat.

Therefore, artillery and guns should go back to where they came from.

It’s really that the Shenji Camp, the Military Department, and the Ministry of Finance despise him.

outrageous! ! !

So for these, Liu Wuming knew that thermal weapons were the future development direction, but if the technology could not break through, it would be shelved forever.

Just like Liu Wu's previous life, there are obviously countless resources in the universe, but human beings are always fighting to the death for something on the earth, and are unwilling to go out of the earth to mine resources.

why?

It's very simple, it can't be done! ! !

Apart from anything else, has nuclear fusion research been successful?

So the logic is the same, the Han army can only run wildly on the road of rocket launchers.

As for guns and artillery sweeping the world?

Liu Wu, you are the great sacrificial wine, so stop talking nonsense here!

I’m going to scold the Qing Dynasty here. Damn it, it’s really rubbish!
