There is a famous saying in the aviation industry, called "power brick flying". Of course, Chris knows this, and he is now on this seemingly beautiful road of no return. Now he has to put his treasure on the top of "vigorously producing miracles", because he doesn't have too good a choice.

He really doesn't have any good way to improve the combat effectiveness of his army now, because the bottleneck period of mechanical processing has arrived, and he can only accumulate here silently, so that the workers can eat the current equipment thoroughly in order to continue to develop downward.

Therefore, in order to improve the combat effectiveness of his troops, he can now be said to be in a state of doing everything - while 155 mm howitzers are still popular, he has begun to deploy 203 mm heavy artillery to his troops.

When artillery could not be mass-produced, the army began to favor large-caliber rockets: less than four months into service with the Katyusha, Iran Hill developed a 400-millimeter rocket.

The M4 tank began to be replaced with a 90 mm caliber long-barreled tank gun, which improved its firepower and strike capability a lot on the premise that the firepower was already a little overflowing.

Similarly, the entire Elanhill force suffered from a phobia of insufficient firepower, and began to frantically pile up the firepower pouring power of their troops, and the modification began to develop in a more evil direction.

In the Air Force, the ME-109 fighter began to be discontinued, and the production of the Mustang fighter began, and at the time of the production of this fighter, all the large-caliber machine guns originally equipped with them were eliminated and replaced with the terrible 30 mm caliber cannon.

Four 30 mm cannons were stacked on the two wings of the Mustang fighters, and four 150 mm rockets were mounted on the wings.

Regardless of whether or not it can really hit a target the size of a flying man in the sky, the idea of the Air Force anyway is: I will improve the damage capability first! Even when the Mustang fighters were not massively equipped with troops, the Air Force also modified a batch of ME-109 fighters to carry rockets.

Because of their lack of confidence in their interception capabilities, the Air Force also modified the B-25 bomber that had already been mass-produced, and they frantically experimented with installing a 50 mm rapid-fire gun on the B-25 bomber......

The ground air defense forces are not idle, first of all, the Ceris urban air defense forces, which are all equipped with 88 mm caliber cannons, in order to give the other side a ruthless blow when the magician may be in the air.

What's even more terrifying is that behind the 88 mm anti-aircraft guns that are as dense as the woods, Alan Hill also prepared 127 mm anti-aircraft guns to attack the air.

The 30 mm anti-aircraft guns, originally prepared to deal with high-speed moving targets, seemed to have become obsolete overnight, and now everyone is more optimistic about the more powerful 88 mm cannons, and it seems that only more powerful weapons can deal with those terrible magicians.

It was in such a general environment that the Navy's warship construction program kicked off. Iran Hill's first truly modern warship began laying its first keel at the shipyard in Ferry City.

In the autumn of the second year of Irlanhill, after Ellen Hill conquered the Dorson Empire and entered the stage of full recuperation, in the shipyard, a designer looked at the design drawings and boasted to his colleagues around him: "I have been thinking about how far I can go if I can make a terrible cannon without the restrictions of transportation." ”

His colleagues naturally knew why he was proud, because whoever saw such a warship being built by humans would feel proud.

So he looked at the clear outline on the huge drawing and smiled, "And then? Now that you've succeeded, look at this, do you feel a sense of accomplishment? ”

"Yes, now I know that if you don't have to think about the weight of the shell, you can use machinery to load ammunition, and you don't have to think about the weight of the artillery, it turns out that our strength can already reach such a state." The engineer said proudly.

"It's ironic, the army has always wanted large-caliber artillery, the air force is already doomed to be unable to equip large-caliber artillery, and in the end the navy was the first to come up with such terrible weapons and equipment!" The colleague looked at the huge cannon barrel pulled up by the crane in the distance, and said with the same proud face.

The huge, so to speak, terrifying 305 mm cannon, can be said to symbolize the most powerful artillery manufacturing capacity of this era.

That's right, this is a battleship, an epoch-making super-battleship, so to speak, the super-sea hegemon of the new era.

On Earth, it has an epoch-making name: "Dreadnought", and here, too, it is named "Dreadnought", representing an era, representing the modernization of the Navy in the true sense of the word.

Different from the original design, the outdated design of the gunwales was eliminated on this battleship, and the vertical heavy steel plates were directly used to fill the ship's side. And next to the superstructure, it was armed with 4 anti-aircraft guns of 127 mm caliber, and 10 anti-aircraft guns of 88 mm caliber.

Strengthened air defense, and retaining the ability to strike hard at sea targets, this coal-burning ship can run at a terrible speed of 40 kilometers per hour. It is faster than any ship known today, which means that once it has locked onto its target, it is impossible for the opponent to get rid of it.

Because of the different gun arrangement from the new battleship, it can fire at the same time with three turrets and six guns at the front, or it can use eight main guns on either side to meet the target at the same time.

Such a battleship was simply a sea behemoth of its time, and after seeing the drawings, Lawrence ordered the construction of two such ships, one named Dreadnought and the other Courage.

"An all-metal battleship, armed with heavy steel plates for defense, and weapons like ballistas are no threat to it! There wouldn't even be an enemy ship that could attack it......" The engineer commented confidently, looking at his masterpiece.

"Yes, any weapons and equipment on the sea right now are actually not a threat to it! In other words, once this kind of warship appears, the sea surface is its world! His colleague said with confidence.

……

"I hope you like the gift I gave you." Looking at the sticky notes in his hand, Chris looked at the huge carriage again. Behind the carriage was an iron box with traces of a magic seal.

"We're merchants from Greken, and we've been entrusted with sending this here." A decent man stood in front of Chris, smiling and talking about the purpose of his visit: "This is our second purchase, and there is also a living sample of the demon that has been sent all the way. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the huge box: "The demon in here is not a high-level demon, it is just a low-level corrupt beast, the IQ is not high, and it is very ferocious. ”

"It doesn't have much magic, though, and is one of the most common demons. We sent it in the hope that you would make some preparations in advance......" The merchant said that he would not say any more about the subject, and walked to the other carriages: "The rest are the gold coins we have sent." ”

"We also need more radars, and we also want to be able to import some mines, which are a hassle to protect the border areas, and landmines can save us manpower." The merchant stopped when he walked to the last car, turned his head to look at Chris, and said, "I hope your majesty will not refuse." ”

"No, I also hope that we can cooperate and defeat the invading devil." Chris squeezed out a smile and spoke.

He really didn't want to sell a lot of mines, because he was afraid that Gluck would abuse it. Humans have created many terrible weapons for themselves that are difficult to deal with, and landmines are undoubtedly one of them.

Such weapons can turn war zones into hell, and many years later, the mined areas will be unfit for human habitation because of the dangers. Even a single mine left in the dirt can turn tens of kilometers around it into a terrifying zone.

The most terrible thing is that it is easy to produce, low cost, convenient to bury, and powerful. When laying mines, it is simple and fast, and when it is cleared, it makes people vomit three liters of blood.

But he really didn't want to refuse Grecken's request, because he knew that the other party might be the only protection he could rely on for a long time.

At least for now, it seems that this country called Grican is fairly peaceful, and it is a fairly normal force. Until Chris has a stronger means of self-preservation, he is still willing to mutually benefit Grecken.

Thinking about these things, he unconsciously walked back to the first carriage, and curiously he approached the edge of the carriage and looked through the gap in the iron cage sealed by magic to see the creatures locked inside.

As a result, he saw inside the cage that an eye like a poisonous snake was staring at him. It's like a reptile, or a chameleon. Chris wanted to take a closer look at the other man, but a sharp claw burst out and slammed into the gap in the cage, revealing only the pointed nails.

"Click!" The scaly monster slammed into the cage, as if trying to swallow Chris on the outside of the cage, and it tried tirelessly, as if it didn't feel pain.

"How do I get it out?" Chris asked, looking at the Greken merchant.

The merchant nodded, and with a wave of his hand, opened the cage. A foul stench poured out, causing Chris to involuntarily cover his nose. He frowned as he looked at the cage monsters, finally knowing why they were called demons.

It resembles a huge dog, but it has eyes all over its head. This thing should have a very good ability to look around, and there are almost no blind spots in the vision. It had a huge, ugly mouth, full of fangs and drooling, and the disgusting smell that emanated from its mouth.
