Chapter 1117: Flame Thrower

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    As for the tactics of using fire to attack, it has existed since ancient times. In the Battle of Chibi, Zhou Lang burned Cao Jun, and Zhuge Liang burned rattan armored soldiers. However, setting fire was still very primitive at that time.  Even the Byzantine fire in the West is still primitive.

    It should be said that the modern arson equipment, that is, the flamethrower, was invented by the German Fiedler in 1900.  The flamethrower is mainly composed of an oil bottle, a compression device, an oil delivery pipe, an ignition device and a flamethrower.  The principle is very simple, the pressure of gasoline is increased by compressing the air, a liquid column of gasoline is sprayed out, and then the liquid column is ignited, then it becomes a burning fire dragon.

    It's just that Fiedler invented the flamethrower at the time, not to kill the enemy, but to create an atmosphere on the battlefield during exercises. It is a kind of exercise equipment.

    Later, the German army felt that it could be used in actual combat, but the original Fiedler's flamethrower was too bulky, inconvenient to carry, too short in range, and not powerful enough, so it could not be used directly as a weapon, and must be continuously improved.  just do.

    And after this weapon was improved, World War I had already broken out. So, when the German army and the British army faced each other in Ypres, Belgium, the Germans first used this weapon on the battlefield. It was terrible at that time.  Countless fire dragons spit out from the German trenches and flew towards the British positions, frightening the British, and ran away, so the German army calmly occupied the British positions.

    In World War I, Britain invested in tanks, a big killer, which was very famous. In contrast, the flamethrowers invested by the Germans seemed to have little influence and were rarely known, but at that time, Germany's  The flamethrower has a shocking effect. All countries are very shocked and have developed flamethrowers one after another.

    After World War II, the performance of the flamethrower became more powerful, and at the same time it began to be classified. There were flamethrowers carried by individual soldiers, and there were also flamethrowers used on vehicles. Among them, the range of flamethrowers used on vehicles could reach hundreds of meters  .

    It can be said that only a range of hundreds of meters is of practical value, because although the flamethrower is powerful, it is also easy to become the target of the enemy's snipers. The flamethrower carries a few cans on his back.  Knowing that it is a big killer, it will definitely receive the attention of enemy snipers on the battlefield. The longer the range of the flamethrower, the safer the shooter will be.

    In World War II, there were more examples of the use of flamethrowers, especially when dealing with enemies in closed buildings.  Wherever the ghost soldiers in caves and bunkers went, there was a smell of barbecue.

    After the war, flamethrowers continued to develop, and all countries were building fire-breathing tanks. For example, the fire-breathing tanks of the Soviet Union had a range of two hundred meters.  The military industry can't handle it.

    Now, the battlefield is on the open grassland, and the cavalry is to be dealt with. It seems that the flamethrower is useless, but in fact, the flamethrower is a real killer, because if the puppet Mongolian army wants to make things difficult  For the Eighth Route Army, it must be to loot the goods of the Eighth Route Army's transport team, and if they want to rob those goods, they must get close. As long as they get close, the flamethrower of the Eighth Route Army will teach them to be human!  In particular, those war horses are the most afraid of fire. As long as a fire dragon passes by, the war horses will all be shocked?

    As long as you clean up the opponent once and let the puppet Mongolian army know how powerful your side is, will you dare to take the initiative to provoke it in the future?

    Be afraid of them once!

    At this time, when he heard Qin Baoshan talk about the flamethrower, Xiong Zheng was also delighted for a while, this thing is a big killer!

    Xiong Zheng naturally knew flamethrowers, and also knew the difficulties of this weapon.

    It does not require a high industrial foundation, nor does it require any special alloys. Its most critical component is the compressed steel cylinder, which stores high-pressure air and blows out the gasoline by high-pressure air, or it can also be a single cylinder, directly in the  The steel cylinder is filled with gasoline and then filled with high-pressure air. This kind of steel cylinder is enough. However, the defect of the latter is also obvious. As long as it is used, it must be used up once, and it is impossible to use it for the second time.

    If the steel cylinder wants to be filled with compressed air, it must have a certain ability to withstand pressure. This is the most test of their technology. However, now they have been able to manufacture oil fractionation towers, and the pressure of the evaporated oil in the fractionation towers is not low.  Yes, so they are fully capable of making weapons of this level.

    As for the others, flamethrower spray guns and the like are not difficult. A steel pipe is enough, and a small bottle of acetylene is enough to ignite it.

     However, he still has a question.

    "What size gas tank are we going to use? On the back or in the car?"

    The transport team has cars, but that's just taking the normal route. Now, if the Eighth Route Army wants to go around Suiyuan, then it's walking on the grassland without roads, so Yishui horses should be the best  , so there is no vehicle, so it can only be carried by people. If people carry it, it is easy to achieve a range of 100 meters, but the persistence of the flamethrower is not high.

    It seems inappropriate to make something that can only be sprayed once, and can only be sprayed for more than ten seconds at a time. If the spraying is over and the puppet Mongolian army is not frightened, the next thing will be miserable.

    "We made it the size of an existing gasoline barrel, which can just fit on a horse's back and let the horse carry it, which is also convenient for camouflage." Qin Baoshan said.

    In order to transport crude oil, the military factory has built a large number of oil barrels, some of which are international standard oil barrels, which are transported on cars, and some are smaller, which are placed on horseback to make a shelf, with one oil barrel on each side  suitable.

    Now, replace the oil drums on both sides and make it into this kind of flamethrower. While putting fuel and filling compressed air, the appearance is confusing. When the puppet Mongolian army approaches, the gasoline drum suddenly becomes a flamethrower.  , That scene will definitely make the puppet Mongolian army unforgettable for life.

    Having said that, Qin Baoshan showed a meaningful smile, which looked a little sinister.

    "Director Qin, your plan is really poisonous." Monk Wei said emotionally from the side, as soon as the words fell, he felt something wrong with what he said. Sure enough, Qin Baoshan had already looked over with a pair of eyes that could kill:  "Monk, can you say it again?"

    "I said, Director Qin, your plan is really good, really good." Monk Wei quickly changed his words.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
