Chapter 138: Delivered to the door
Of course, the steam power of the catapult fighter, Luo Heng did not have the confidence to get it, the difficulty was very high, it was not a matter of materials, with the addition of magic materials, the hardness and toughness of the metal could meet the requirements.
However, steam catapult is a systematic project, not a simple air pressure valve, of course, a steam trebuchet that reduces the difficulty.
Luo Heng still has the confidence to experiment.
"Is this world going to enter the age of steam?" Luo Heng thought silently in his heart.
For the mechanical aspect, Luo Heng is very talented, but to do something, the first thing you need is to determine a direction.
The power choice is steam, so is it a traditional trebuchet style, or a jet ejection style?
"It's still traditional, it's just that you need to install a set of ~ power equipment, and it's best to add automatic filling equipment. Luo Heng pondered for a moment.
Luo Heng was ready to design an arm-type trebuchet, which had a clear structure and was easy to maintain.
If you make a jet type, it is a problem in many aspects, first of all, the stone ball needs to be specified to achieve a certain accuracy, and the other is that the spray wall is very demanding, of course, you can add a sealing plug, but it is troublesome.
Of course, high shooting accuracy is also an advantage.
However, Luo Heng felt that for the intensive plastic surgery in this world and the possible low quality of the operator, Luo Heng felt that the arm style was more suitable.
Of course, the jet can also be modified to the same style as the catapult, using the slide rail to fire ~ ammunition, but this is more complicated.
It's not that difficult to manufacture, but how difficult is it to use?
It's not that the higher the performance of the weapon, the better, but it depends on the target audience.
It's easy to maintain, it's easy to use, that's all.
The trebuchet uses the principle of leverage, which directly throws the stone ~ out.
There are many prototypes of trebuchets in this world, and they hardly need to be changed.
What needs to be added is the power system, which is the force that pushes the lever down.
In addition, steam power must also have pipelines, gears, and necessary safety protection measures.
This is a complete set of systems, but for Luo Heng, it is not complicated.
Quisen came to the dukedom, Luo Heng soon got the news, and after Quisen saw Luo Heng, he immediately said: "Cheney, things are messed up, take that despicable and shameless bastard of Lankado!"
Luo Heng brought a glass of wine to Kuisen, and then said, "Speak slowly, don't be in a hurry." β
"How could I not be in a hurry, I put so much thought into it, did so many things, and now I ...... it. Quison almost jumped.
After Luo Heng listened, he was not in a hurry, he felt very sad about Lancado in his heart, Luo Heng had no good impression of Lancado.
As for saying that the steam engine is not as useful as a magic weapon?
Luo Heng is hehe!
After Quisen finished speaking, he looked at Luo Heng and found that Luo Heng was not in a hurry, so he asked happily: "Brother Cheney, do you have a way?"
"No, Brother Kuisen, I think this matter, the Great Elder's approach is very correct, and people should be focused. "Of course Luo Heng won't solve the problem in vain, there are a lot of good things in the Alchemy Association, and at this time, I don't know how to seize ~ the opportunity, that is stupid~ son.
"Cheney, do you think so too?" Quison was very dissatisfied, and the title of brother was gone.
"Hehe, my share is indispensable anyway. Luo Heng took a sip of wine, looking indifferent.
Kuisen was silent, but he pondered in his heart, and found that Luo Heng had no way to refute what he said.
No matter how the Magicians Guild takes over, Luo Heng's share is indispensable, because Luo Heng is handled in accordance with the rules of the Magician Guild, and if you don't recognize it by the Magician Guild, wouldn't it be a slap in the face.
Moreover, the Textile Association, the Steam Association, is already on the right track, and the basic framework has been built, which is even simpler.
"Brother Cheney, you just say you have a way to do it, and then we'll talk about the rest. Kuisen found that Luo Heng was definitely not as simple as he thought, and asked.
"There is a way, how can a countryman like Lankado know the power of steam, but why should I offend the Great Elder!" Luo Heng shrugged and said.
"What do you want!" Quisen, an old guy, is very sensible, and does not use any reasoning to speak, but directly points to the core question, what do you want!
"Oh, I don't lack anything, I have gold, I have it, I have it, I think my life is perfect. Luo Heng said with a smile.
"What do you want. Kuisen looked at Luo Heng with a sneer, the meaning is obvious, you have to be content.
"I want to see something about God. Luo Heng said in a low voice.
Kuisen looked at Luo Heng with a strange face: "You are indeed a divine guard?"
"What do you say?" Luo Heng asked rhetorically.
Quison said, "Yes, as long as the Wizards Guild has it, I can lend it to you." β
"Okay, what do you want to lose face with Lankado?" Luo Heng asked when he heard this.
"I wonder what your solution is?" asked Lankado.
"Look, one steam engine can drive thirty large trebuchets, and according to my calculations, trebuchets can reach a speed of three rounds a minute when propelled by steam. Luo Heng took out a freshly baked design.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ was ten minutes short and twenty minutes laterββββ "Everyone, everyone, in two months, I will come up with detailed documents, but I have a question about the Alchemy Society now!" Lancado said loudly.
The people who participated in the hearing were quiet, and the others liked to hear about the conflict between the elders, and this is what the hearing should be.
"The Alchemy Society does not focus on the study of alchemy, but on the study of these ordinary things, I may ask!" said Lancado as he stood up.
"The Steam Guild's interests are big enough, but what can the Steam Guild do to deal with the creatures underground?" asked Lankado.
Quison said, "The Steam Society can make money, and if you have money, you can do more research. β
"I disagree with President Kuisen's statement, you can look at the research results of the Alchemy Association in the past few years, and then there is also the support of the trade union for the Alchemy Association, if President Kuisen said today that the support of the union is not enough, then I have nothing to say, last year, the use of funds by the Alchemy Association accounted for one-third of the union's expenses, I may ask President Kuisen, what are the new achievements of your Alchemy Association, is it to use a water pump to drown underground creatures?"
"Haha!"
"Haha, you can still use the wind to blow!"
"Nonsense, they should be stoned to death with fine iron. β
"No, it's supposed to be producing some daily necessities for those dark elves. β
"Haha, what are the daily necessities of the old ghost?"
"Hehe, it's fine iron, I'm afraid it's not enough for the dark elves. β
The magicians who participated in the hearing burst into laughter, which was actually a dissatisfaction with the Alchemy Society.
"I also put forward an opinion, the speed at which the Alchemy Association accepts orders is getting slower and slower, and the price is getting higher and higher, I have placed an order for a wand for five years, but I haven't gotten it yet, is it waiting for me to die, will it be given to me?
