Chapter 70: New Designs
Mogayard Ordnance Industry Research Institute.
The first research institute of the weapons industry of the Vesy Empire.
Hearing that Duke Gregory was coming, the institute did not dare to slack off, and appointed a deputy chief designer, Razig, to greet him.
This Razig, about forty years old, has a shrewd and capable face. At such an age, he can go to the high position of deputy chief designer of the Ordnance Industry Research Institute, and Lazig is definitely a genius.
He is said to be a close disciple of Sherman, the director of the institute.
Sherman is not an ordinary person, an academician of the Interstellar Academy of Sciences, the vice president of the Royal Academy of Sciences of the Vesy Empire, and the first person in the field of weapons industry. There are disciples all over the world, and it can be said that most of the main researchers of the weapons industry of the Weixi Empire are his disciples and grandchildren, even if they are not directly related to him, they also have some indirect origins.
Such a person, even in the face of His Majesty the Emperor, has the capital to be proud. With the dignity of Duke Gregory, it is not enough for him to greet him personally, and arranging a proud disciple to receive him is even a great face-saving arrangement.
Seeing Zhang Tianjiu, Lazig was stunned for a moment.
This inferior person doesn't follow the rules!
He walked side by side with His Royal Highness the Duke and left Sir Tolsy aside.
Strangely, not only did Duke Gregory and Sir Tolsy take it for granted, but no one from the Duke's bodyguards expressed their displeasure and stepped aside to pull this unknown inferior man aside.
"Hello, Dr. Lazig, thank you for coming out to receive us personally. ”
Duke Gregory is very polite, and His Royal Highness is very respectful to people with a level of learning. Among the important members of the royal family of the Vesy Empire, Corporal Gregory was famous and had a high reputation among the people.
"Your Royal Highness, it is my honor to serve you!"
"Dr. Lazig, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Zhang Tianjiu. Mr. Zhang is a second-class caste citizen with a special royal commendation. ”
Obviously, Duke Gregory saw the surprise in Razig's eyes, and added such an explanation.
I see.
However, when Lazige shook hands with Zhang Tianjiu, his smile was still very reluctant. He simply shook his hand and immediately retracted it, as if he was afraid that Zhang Tianjiu would get his hand dirty.
This kind of thing is not unique in the Weixi Empire. The bald guy in front of him must have taken shit luck, and I don't know which lady took a fancy to him and recruited him as a son-in-law. I guess that young lady is ugly enough, otherwise how could she fall in love with such a guy?
Zhang Jiuye is really not very handsome!
Zhang Tianjiu is also used to Lazig's attitude, and he doesn't care about him.
In the Vesy Empire, if you want to take care of such a thing, there will be endless fights every day.
"Dr. Lazig, I heard you have the most advanced mock test site in the country?"
"Of course. Simulated test site, we are the most advanced. ”
Dr. Lazig was arrogant.
Although the level of the weapons industry of the Weixi Empire is not worth mentioning in the world, in China, the Mojiade Ordnance Industry Research Institute is still very arrogant and can be called the first in China.
"That's good, I'd like to borrow this venue to test the performance of a new firearm. ”
"New firearms, which country designed them?"
Lazig was a little surprised.
Anyway, it won't be from the Weixi Empire, and the new guns designed in China, even if they are not from their research institute, will eventually be gathered here, and they must pass their review before they can get a formal production license.
"I designed it. ”
"You?"
Dr. Laziger's eyes immediately widened, completely disbelieving.
The caste division of the Vesy Empire is not only hierarchical, but also has a very practical significance, all lower castes mean limited educational attainment, and many prestigious institutions of higher learning have explicitly stipulated that they do not admit students from the fourth caste and restrict the enrollment of students from the third caste.
Weapon design, without a doubt, is cutting-edge technology.
Of course, if you want to design yourself a knife or a pistol, it's not difficult.
However, Zhang Tianjiu said that he would borrow the simulated test ground of their research institute for testing!
"Mr. Zhang, you're not kidding me, are you?"
Zhang Tianjiu glanced at him, pointed his finger, and a hologram emerged.
"What is this? powder gun?"
Dr. Rao was always personable and reserved, and when he saw this design, he couldn't help but exclaim, and then blushed and looked at Duke Gregory.
"Your Royal Highness, are you here today to joke with us?"
As for this neurotic inferior, Lazig didn't even want to pay attention to him.
If it weren't for Duke Gregory, he would have ordered the guards to get rid of this nervous disorder.
What age is it, and there are still people who design powder guns?
You design a powder gun, you design a powder gun, and no one cares about you when you play by yourself, and you still have to take Mogaard's state-of-the-art gun simulation test site to test?
The design scheme that Zhang Tianjiu took out is indeed the design scheme of the gunpowder gun, which is an upgraded version of the SK15 gun family. But this is not designed by Zhang Tianjiu, but a firearm that has actually been produced in another time and space. It is also the first firearm specifically designed for monks, continuing the model of the SK gun family, and the official name is SK16.
Of course, compared to SK16 and SK15, there are still a lot of changes.
The first is the propellant, which uses the most advanced smokeless propellant, which is much more efficient than the old-fashioned propellant used by the SK15 gun family thousands of years ago. The initial velocity of the SK16 is much higher than that of the SK15, although it is not as fast as the firing speed of the energy beam, and the close combat also greatly shortens the reaction time of the monk.
This is very fatal for low-level monks who are not physically strong enough.
Secondly, the ammunition is made of nanomaterials in the form of a submunition in the form of a high-strength composite fiber. High-tech proximity fuses are hard to guard against.
In addition, the gun body is thicker than the SK15, eliminating the magazine or cartridge disc that is necessary for old-fashioned firearms, and the bullet is loaded in the thick gun body, driven by energy, and automatically fed.
When necessary, the maximum rate of fire can reach more than ten rounds per second, forming a barrage in an instant.
All these improvements, in the face of higher-level monks, the effect is not obvious, but suddenly large-scale use on low-level battlefields will definitely cause huge damage to low-level monks who are caught off guard.
The point is that this old powder gun, which does not have any problems with the production and supply of raw materials, can equip the troops in large quantities in a short time.
But in the eyes of Razig, such a powder gun is naturally old and ridiculous.
Countless facts have proved that gunpowder guns and metal bullets have long been outdated, and in terms of lethality, they are several grades worse than energy guns. Especially for the killing of armored troops, the efficiency of metal bullets is even more miserable, and energy weapons are the big killers. If a mecha that has not opened the energy shield is directly hit by the energy cannon, even if the mecha is not exploded, the concussive force of the energy beam alone is enough to shatter the internal organs of the pilot.
"Doctor, the enemy is different, and our weapons must be changed. Conformism is meant to be eradicated. ”
"Doctor, this is specifically designed to deal with cultivators. ”
Tolsy interjected.
He admires the "boss" very much.
"Really, what are you kidding? This kind of thing can deal with cultivators?"
Lazig was completely unconvinced.
Even the most advanced energy weapons are very difficult to deal with cultivators, not to mention this kind of antique gunpowder gun, which is simply looking for abuse!
"Shall we, Doctor, give it a try?"
Zhang Tianjiu said with a smile.
This Razig is not very old, and his brain is rigid, but he is unexpected. I think he has been in such a high-level research institution for too long, and he has already developed a self-respecting mindset.
Zhang Tianjiu's inferior status also made Razig's sense of superiority even more explosive.
"Yes. How do you want to compare?"
Lazig asked with a sneer.
"Simulate the battlefield. You use the most advanced guns in your research institute, and I use the SK16. Everything speaks in terms of actual combat results. ”
Lazig sneered, ignored Zhang Tianjiu, turned to Duke Gregory, and said, "Your Royal Highness, are you sure you want to have such a competition?"
It's a waste of time and resources!
"Doctor, seeing is believing, so let's take a look. ”
"Okay, let's go to the test site. ”
The simulation test site equipment of the institute is very advanced, and the level of the test site alone is not inferior to many scientific and technological powers. The overall scientific and technological level of the Weixi Empire is low, which does not prevent some individual aspects from approaching the advanced level of the interstellar.
Dr. Laziger directly recruited a twelve-man testing team.
Because the test was infantry firearms, the twelve-man test team just formed a standard armored infantry squad, using the standard equipment of the current Wehrmacht armored infantry - flying shoes, body armor, and energy guns.
In view of the strength of the cultivators, the Wehrmacht has begun to equip the troops with energy cannons. Each standard infantry squad is equipped with a large-caliber energy cannon and a large-caliber sniper energy gun.
This twelve-man test team also has the same equipment.
"Lads, put on a good show of your great skills to the guests. ”
Lazig smiled and said to the testing team. In front of his own people, the deputy chief designer became polite and personable again.
The test team answered yes in unison, and Yukan entered the testing room.
Torcy glanced at Zhang Tianjiu with a little concern. He is not an ordinary gentleman, he is a fighter with actual combat experience, and it can be seen that these twelve test teams are not rookies who have never been on the battlefield, but experienced soldiers.
The chilling murderous aura on his body can't be concealed no matter what.
It is also an unwritten rule that weapon testers try to use fighters with actual combat experience, which can better test the performance of weapons.
Can this powder gun newly designed by Zhang Tianjiu win the test team?
