Nws tau tua ib zaug, thiab tua ob zaug, thiab lub mos txwv xuav mus rau hauv hav txwv yeem …

"Koj tua zoo li tub rog," Kamal hais tias, "qhia kuv tias koj tsav tsheb li cas."

R. Kipling. Ballad ntawm Sab Hnub Poob thiab Sab Hnub Tuaj

Kev ua tub rog ntawm qhov tig ntawm lub sijhawm. Tej zaum, tsis tas li ntawd kev ua tsov rog ua rau kev txhim kho hauv zej zog kom sai li sai tau, piv txwv li, thaum Tsov Rog Zaum Ob hauv Tebchaws Meskas xyoo 1861-1865. Nws tau pib nrog ib rab riam phom, thiab xaus, qhov tseeb, nrog lwm qhov, thiab qhov no nyob rau lub sijhawm thaum qhov kev xav ntawm kev xav tau muaj zog heev, tsis muaj kev cuam tshuam ncaj ncees. Tab sis xav tau yuam, thiab lub sijhawm maj nrawm nrog qhov tsis tau pom dua. Qhov kev txhawj xeeb no, ua ntej tshaj plaws, caj npab me me, riam phom loj tshaj plaws ntawm kev ua tsov ua rog.

Hauv ib qho ntawm cov ntawv yav dhau los, Phom Phom Phom Loj, thawj rab phom ntsaws rau hauv Tebchaws Meskas, ua rau muaj kev txaus siab heev ntawm cov neeg nyeem VO. Niaj hnub no peb tseem yuav tham txog lwm qhov piv txwv ntawm cov caj npab me uas tau tshwm sim nyob rau lub sijhawm tig ntawm lub xyoo pua: Burnside thawj lub taub hau ntsaws ntsaws ntsaws ntsaws ntsaws ntswj carbine.

Zoo, peb yuav tsum pib los ntawm kev hais tias Hall carbine, uas tau ua haujlwm ncaj ncees rau Asmeskas cov tub rog caij nees ntev, yog qhov qub dhau ntawm kev ncaj ncees thiab lub cev, thiab nws tau txiav txim siab hloov nws nrog qee yam tshiab. Thiab ntawm qhov "qee yam" no tsoomfwv Meskas tau npaj them 90 txhiab daus las, cov nyiaj nyob rau lub sijhawm ntawd yog qhov txiav txim siab heev. Thiab, tau kawg, coob leej xav tau lawv.

Raws li rau Ambrose Burnside, tom qab kawm tiav los ntawm West Point xyoo 1847, nws twb tau tswj kom sib ntaus hauv Mexico thiab nrog Isdias Asmesliskas, nws paub zoo txog cov teeb meem cavalrymen muaj riam phom. Thiab paub, nws tau sim tsim lub cavalry carbine, tsis muaj qhov ua tsis tau paub rau nws. Ntxiv mus, nws tau tawm qhov kev pabcuam twb tau ua tiav xyoo 1853. Pom tau tias, nws txoj kev nyuaj tau zoo li tus tub ceev xwm ib yam nkaus "hnyav heev."

Ib zaug ntxiv, nco qab tias qhov no yog lub sijhawm rab phom ntsaws ntsaws ntsaws ntsaws. Tus qauv riam phom ntawm Asmeskas cov tub rog nyob rau xyoo ntawd yog qhov sib tsoo ntawm 1855 tus qauv ntawm lub xyoo (hloov kho tshiab xyoo 1861), uas, ntawm chav kawm, tsis muaj txoj hauv kev haum rau tus neeg caij tsheb, txawm tias tom qab hloov pauv mus rau hauv carbine.

Puas yog Burnside muaj cov neeg ua ntej ntawm nws tus qauv nws tuaj yeem saib thiab nqa qee yam los ntawm lawv? Yog, muaj, tshwj xeeb, Christian Sharps, uas patented nws rab phom rov qab rau xyoo 1848; Ntxiv mus, txij li xyoo 1850, nws tau pib tsim los ntawm ntau lub tsev haujlwm Asmeskas. Nws kuj tseem tau thauj khoom los ntawm lub breech nrog cov ntawv ib txwm siv nrog lub Minier mos txwv, muaj qhov ntsuas hluav taws xob tseem ceeb, tab sis muaj ib qho nthuav dav nthuav dav hauv nws qhov kev tsim: tsuas yog lub ntsej muag ntse ntawm txoj kab ntsug zawv zawg ntawm ib sab uas nyob ib sab ntawm lub breech ntawm lub thoob. Txawm li cas los xij, nws yog qhov pom uas ua rau nws cov riam phom nrov tiag. Tau muab tus kheej tso rau hauv daim cartridge mus rau hauv lub tog raj kheej, tus tua hluav taws tsuas yog xa rov qab lub qhov rooj kaw qhov rooj, ua tiav ua ke nrog tus tiv thaiv tus tiv thaiv, rau nws qhov chaw qub. Tus ntsia liaj qhov rooj tau nce mus, txiav tawm hauv qab ntawm lub tes tsho ntawv nrog lub ntsej muag ntse, yog li tam sim no txhua yam uas tau tso tseg yog muab cov tshuaj tsau rau ntawm lub raj thiab … tua. Tsis muaj "knead lub cartridge", "tom lub cartridge", "thawb lub cartridge rau hauv lub thoob" tsis xav tau ntxiv lawm!

Nws muaj cov duab zoo ib yam, tau ua los ntawm tooj dag thiab tau muab tso rau hauv chav ntsia liaj qhov rooj los ntawm ib sab tig mus rau lub thoob, thaum lub ntsia liaj qhov rooj los ntawm kev ua ntawm lub qib nyob hauv qab tus txais tau raug tsa los ntawm lub thawv ntim khoom. Tsis zoo li cov cartridges niaj hnub no, tsis muaj qhov hluav taws kub nyob hauv nws, thiab qhov no yog nws qhov tsis zoo. Txhua daim cartridge muaj lub qhov me me hauv qab, npog nrog ciab. Yog li ntawd, rau kev tua los ntawm sab nrauv ntawm tus ntsia liaj qhov rooj, tau muab cov qauv txheej txheem rau hauv, uas tau muab cov qauv tshuaj tiv thaiv kab mob. Cov kab ntawv no tau hloov pauv tshiab thiab muaj txiaj ntsig, tab sis twb dhau los lawm thaum kawg ntawm kev ua tsov rog, yog li tsis muaj kev mob siab rau ua txuas ntxiv tsim cov Burnside carbines tom qab qhov kawg ntawm kev ua phem.

Tsoomfwv tau xaj 200 carbines tam sim ntawd, tab sis qhov no tsawg dhau, thiab Burnside, tsis cia siab tias yuav ua tiav, muag nws cov feem ntawm cov patents thiab tuam txhab rau qee yam Charles Jackson xyoo 1858. Qhov xwm txheej tau hloov pauv nrog kev tawm tsam ntawm kev ua tsov rog, thaum lub sijhawm ntau dua 55,000 carbines tau xaj rau Union cov tub rog caij nees hauv tsib qhov kev txhim kho sai.

Lub khw tau thauj khoom los ntawm taub qab phom. Thaum tus tiv thaiv tus tiv thaiv tau qis dua, lub breech kuj tau qis dua, thiab cov ntaub ntawv siv daim cartridge raug pov tseg. Thaum tus neeg tiv thaiv rov qab mus rau nws txoj haujlwm qub, tus ntsia liaj qhov rooj tau txav mus, rub daim cartridge tshiab thiab tso nws mus rau hauv lub qhov ncauj. Txhawm rau ua kom nrawm dua txheej txheem, lub thawv Blakeslee tau tsim, uas muaj ob peb phau ntawv xov xwm uas tuaj yeem nkag tau sai rau hauv cov khoom. Hauv tag nrho, tsoomfwv tau yuav ntau dua 95,000 Spencer carbines thaum ua tsov rog.

Lwm qhov kev kawm niaj hnub ntawm Burnside carbine thiab nws cov yeeb ncuab sib tw yog.52 caliber carbine tsim los ntawm Jerome H. Tarpley ntawm Greensboro, North Carolina, uas tau txais daim ntawv pov thawj rau nws los ntawm tsoomfwv Confederate thaum Lub Ob Hlis 1863. Nws tau tsim los ntawm J. I. F.

Qhov teeb meem loj ntawm carbine yog tias nws tsis muaj lub foob los tiv thaiv cov pa tawm ntawm qhov ntsia liaj qhov rooj thiab lub thoob thaum raug rho tawm. Cov roj cua uas tsim los ntawm kev sib xyaw ntawm cov hmoov dub yog cov yaig heev. Yog li ntawd, nrog txhua qhov kev txhaj tshuaj, qhov sib txawv ntawm cov ntsia liaj qhov rooj thiab cov thoob tau nce, uas, ntawm chav kawm, tsis ntxiv rau nws qhov kev ntseeg tau. Tab sis nws siv cov ntawv mos txwv ib txwm. Txawm hais tias cov carbine tau tsim feem ntau rau cov tub rog, nws kuj tau muag lag luam. Nws yog tib rab phom Confederate uas tau muag rau cov pej xeem thaum ua tsov rog. Tarpley muaj qhov ntxim nyiam ntxim nyiam, tab sis nws yuav tsum tsuas yog siv los ntawm cov neeg muaj zog qab haus huv!
