Chapter 1108 The power of machinery(2/2)
"Master Hou is looking for me?"
Han Du raised his head and saw that Lin Mo's official uniform was a bit old. He couldn't help frowning and asked: "What? Lin Mo, your family is having a hard time? How come your official uniform has become like this and you haven't changed it yet?"
"
After hearing this, Lin Mo smiled honestly and replied: "Master Hou, please call me Heizi, it sounds friendly. This official uniform is not what the Marquis thought. The villain's family is living a good life. This official uniform is
It became like this because it was washed too many times."
"The Marquis also knows that villains like to make things with their own hands, so it is inevitable that official uniforms will get dirty easily. It would be disrespectful not to wash them, and it will become like this if they are washed too much."
"If you have any difficulties, just tell me. If I can help you, I will definitely take action." Han Du glanced at Lin Mo doubtfully and did not continue to ask. He just left a sentence to him.
No matter what the reason was, since Lin Mo said this, it was because he didn't want him to know, and he couldn't reach out directly. Secondly, Han Du also believed that Lin Mo would not encounter any trouble, because besides himself, there were also
Lao Zhu is watching.
Lin Mo is the person who holds the secret of revolver manufacturing. If anyone dares to take his idea, Lao Zhu will definitely not let go of those with ulterior motives.
"Heizi, thank you, Lord Marquis, for your kindness." Lin Mo bowed first and expressed his gratitude to Handu, then straightened up and asked curiously: "Master Hou came to the Arms Bureau today, what do you want?
thing?"
Lin Mo also knew Han Du very well and knew that Han Du would not come here unless something happened.
Han Du didn't mince words, pointed to the steel pipe on the table and said, "I want you to use these things to make a firearm."
Hearing that the Marquis wanted to make firearms, Lin Mo's eyes suddenly lit up, and his expression showed excitement. After the Marquis made the revolver, he originally thought that the Marquis would continue to make firearms, but after so long, the Marquis stopped making firearms.
He never took action once.
Now, is the Marquis finally going to make new firearms again?
"Master Marquis is planning to make a firearm as powerful as a revolver?"
Han Du nodded and said: "How should I put it? It is very similar to a fire gun. It is a kind of fire gun. But it is much more powerful than fire, even more powerful than a revolver. Compared with this firearm, the revolver has
Apart from the advantage of one consecutive shot, it is almost completely incomparable.”
"Please give me your instructions, Lord Marquis." Lin Mo quickly bowed and answered.
Han Du nodded and handed the prepared drawings to Lin Mo, asking him to make this thing according to the drawings.
After Lin Mo looked at the drawings, he realized that this thing was completely different from the revolver. These steel pipes were just part of the gun.
After a while, Lin Mo said uncertainly: "Master Hou, this is my first time doing this, so I don't know if I can make it. However, I will try my best."
"Just do your best." Han Du nodded.
Lin Mo quickly said goodbye and went out.
Making a fire gun is not something that can be done in a short while, and Han Du is not prepared to wait here. It is the same when he returns home and waits for news about Lin Mo.
With experience in making revolvers, Lin Mo only took two days to make the thing according to the drawings given by Han Du.
Han Du got the news and rushed to the Ordnance Bureau, and Lin Mo handed Han Du his finished product.
"Master Hou, this is what the villain made according to Master Hou's drawings."
Han Du held a blunderbuss in the shape of a flintlock gun and looked at it from top to bottom. However, the gun in Han Du's hand was not a flintlock gun, but a real single-shot breech-loading gun. Of course, it was the same as the official
There is certainly no way to compare with a rifle.
While watching, he asked: "You haven't tried it yourself, have you?"
"No, the villain will obey the Marquis's orders and will not act without permission." Lin Mo agreed with a smile.
Han Du finished looking at the gun, looked back at Lin Mo, grinned, and said: "It's not that I won't let you try it, but I don't know whether this thing is dangerous or not, because I'm afraid that if you try it rashly, it will hurt you.
"
"Thank you, Lord Marquis, for your kindness." Lin Mo bowed slightly.
Han Du cocked his gun, spread his hands towards Lin Mo, and asked, "Okay, where are the bullets? I'll give it a try."
Lin Mo quickly took out a bullet from the wooden box next to him and explained: "The bullet in the revolver is too small. This villain made it specially for this. Lord Hou, try it."
Han Du took the bullet handed over by Lin Mo and suddenly felt heavy in his hand. He took a closer look and saw that this was a breech-loader bullet. It was as big as a heavy machine gun bullet.
The key thing that left Han Du speechless was that if such large bullets were all filled with collodion, then
"Are you filled with guncotton here?"
Lin Mo was stunned for a moment when he heard Han Du's question, and then nodded as if it was natural, "Of course."
Han Du glanced at him speechlessly and couldn't help but said: "Aren't you afraid that this bullet will explode?"
"Here, will the bullet explode?" Lin Mo looked at a loss. He had never seen a bullet explode before, so no wonder he had such doubts.
Han Du said angrily: "Of course the bullet will explode. When I made the bullet, I always made the bullet shell very thick for the first time. After I was sure it would not explode, I slowly reduced the thickness. What do you think now?
If you put so much guncotton directly in it, wouldn't it hurt your own people if it exploded?"
