Chapter 91 Craftsman Promotion Task
Chapter 91 Craftsman Promotion Task
After studying the short and heavy artillery, Zheng Kezang was so excited that he wished he could go to the sea now.
With it, in a short time, there is no need to build a big ship, saving him money!
To be honest, short heavy guns do offer a reliable and effective possibility for light ships to fight larger ships.
The Dutch devils, Zheng Kezang's boat tactics are coming, tremble!
Zheng Kezang laughed out loud in the study!
Before, he was worried about how to overthrow the Dutch in Batavia, but he didn't expect the short heavy artillery to solve this problem.
He has studied the map, and naval battles are indispensable if he wants to occupy Batavia.
Fighting against the sea coachman at this time, even though he is fighting at home, it is easy for both sides to lose.
However, it is not enough to rely solely on steel factories to produce high-quality short-heavy guns.
Because Zheng Kezang discovered that the casting process of cannons in the [-]th century has been updated.
Most of the cannons in the Ming and Zheng Dynasties were still cast in traditional mud molds. The molds were made of mud and baked by charcoal fire. If they were not completely dried and there was still moisture inside, blisters would easily appear inside and outside the cannon bore during casting.
By the eighteenth century, European cannon casting technology had completely left the Eastern world behind.
When the Qing Dynasty was still reforming the casting process, the British engineer John Wilkinson invented the barrel boring machine.
In the following decades, industrial operation platforms such as mobile lathes and all-metal lathes appeared one after another.
From then on, the British began to try a new technology: first cast a solid cylinder with a cast iron with good ductility, process it into the shape of a gun barrel with a lathe, and then use a drilling machine to directly drill the gun barrel from the solid iron column, and continue Use a boring machine to enlarge the caliber.
This greatly improves the processing accuracy of the cannon, the inside of the cannon bore is smooth and straight, and the tube wall is thinner.
The application of these machines has improved the processing accuracy of Western cannons, and the integrally cast cannons have also avoided problems such as trachoma that cannot be avoided by traditional techniques.
At the same time, thanks to the improvement of machining accuracy, the shell and the barrel are more closely connected, which improves the range of the artillery.
The famous Watt-type steam engine appeared in 1765. Its cylinder must ensure that the steam leakage is kept at a low level, and at the same time, it must be closely matched with the piston. In fact, it is also processed by this process.
In order to short heavy guns, Zheng Kezang spent 30 points and exchanged them with the system for the physical equipment of the hydraulic horizontal boring machine invented by Wilkinson.
In a blink of an eye, his brilliant points were down to 770 points.
He used it too quickly, and he felt that after a while, he had to start the mission of the Venetian Armory, otherwise, there would be too many places to use points.
As expected of Points Wind and Cloud 4, when I played it before, I felt that this game relied too much on points, and I didn't expect to be tortured after time travel.
Today is sunny and sunny. Su Laocheng, the manager of the steel factory, is patrolling the warehouse with his apprentices as usual.
Unexpectedly, a stalwart figure appeared at the door of the warehouse.
Isn't that Zheng Kezang, the great technical instructor of the steelmaking plant!
"Your Highness, good morning!" Su Laocheng bowed respectfully when he saw the person coming.
"Morning, old Su, I heard that you have been promoted to a fifth-level technician." After returning to Yizhou Island, Zheng Kezang also followed the news of the steel factory.
The news that Su Laocheng became the first fifth-level mechanic in Dongning Manufacturing Bureau had already appeared in the "Dongning Daily".
This news was written by Zheng Kezang’s brother-in-law, Chen Mengqiu, with good intentions. He appealed to all craftsmen to learn from Lao Su’s craftsman spirit. A middle-aged man with a miserable life experience, through his own efforts, learned to read and write, and was admitted to the fifth grade in one fell swoop. mechanic.
"Thanks to His Royal Highness, I, Lao Su, will catch up with the good time." Su Laocheng was a little embarrassed, "Dongning Daily" played too hard, so that he had to be careful when going out now, for fear of being recognized.
Because the people in Dongning Mansion heard that Lao Su was a widower, and they all wanted to introduce him to someone.
Whoever made him a celebrity in front of Jian Guo has a bright future.
Fortunately, the newspapers of this era don't have photos, otherwise Old Su wouldn't dare to go out.
"When it's a good time, it depends on the person. With so many craftsmen, you, Old Su, are the one who can endure loneliness the most and learn to read and write quickly. In other words, why don't you put a few tables for such a good thing, and then you will be able to learn how to read and write." Let’s call the prison country to celebrate.” Zheng Kezang praised.
"How dare a villain!" Old Su didn't dare to overstep.
"Don't be afraid, the reform of the craftsmen's households by the supervisory country is to make your status higher. In the future, you will become a master craftsman, and you can come to me for dinner and tea at any time." Zheng Kezang admired Su Laocheng's hard-working craftsmen .
"By the way, just in time, I brought you something good, come with me to the warehouse to have a look." Saying that, he brought Su Laocheng into the warehouse.
Just before Su Laocheng came, Zheng Kezang withdrew the horizontal boring machine from the system.
Seeing the exquisite horizontal boring machine in the warehouse, Old Su asked, "Your Highness, is this a large eviscerated one?"
The so-called evisceration is used to process jade articles such as snuff bottles, bottles, bowls, pen holders, and cups.
"You are knowledgeable, this is for you." Zheng Kezang said with a smile.
In fact, the original lathe appeared thousands of years ago.
After generations of development, the Ming Dynasty already had tools similar to lathes.
Among other things, there are several kinds of grinding pictures recorded in "Tiangong Kaiwu".
For example, "Zha Tuo Tu", "Chong Tuo Tu", "Dao Tang Tu" and so on.
No wonder it is impossible to be admitted as a fifth-level technician without some knowledge reserves.
Then, Zheng Kezang explained to him how to use a horizontal boring machine to make cannons.
This kind of boring machine uses a water wheel to rotate the material cylinder and advance it to align with a fixed tool in the center. Due to the relative movement between the tool and the material, the material is bored into a cylindrical hole with high precision.
Lao Su also understood it very quickly, and was extremely excited for a while.
Men always yearn for bigger and thicker guns.
Old Su is no exception, because the cannon is the king of war, and it can cause as much damage to the Tartars. Can he not be excited about it?
Moreover, Zheng Kezang also showed him the design drawing of the short heavy artillery, which made him amazed, and he didn't know how Zheng Kezang's head was long.
After a while, Lao Su gathered the workers of the steelmaking plant and directed them to find a suitable place to install the hydraulic boring machine.
"Old Su, are you in such a hurry?" Zheng Kezang joked.
"To create a reliable weapon for His Highness is my long-cherished wish. It's a pity that these weapons were all thought up by Your Highness Jian Guo, and I couldn't design a good weapon for His Highness." Old Su said with a little melancholy.
"Old Su, you have a good idea. How about this, do you want to become the first craftsman of Dongning Manufacturing Bureau?" Zheng Kezang decided to give Su Laocheng a chance to develop independently.
"It's even a dream, my lord." Old Su replied sincerely.
"It just so happens that I have something in my heart recently, so I will tell you my inspiration. You go to complete it. If you succeed, you will be the first craftsman."
