733 Powerful mortar
And those professionals in the industrial sector are obviously very happy to see this situation, since last year to the present, Zhuyuan Public School has obtained more than 400 students from various channels, and one-third of them are over 12 years old when they just entered the school, so they quickly entered the part-time work and study system, so during this time, they assisted the travelers to participate in various industrial construction, product development and production on the island, and because of this, This part of the teenagers has become the most valued talent of various industrial tycoons, and these teenagers have become indispensable.
So under the interaction of various comprehensive factors, the complaints of the industrial tycoons and the pleas of the parents still played a role---- soon after, the number of sailing training classes was quickly reduced from 30 to 15, and in the end, only 10 people remained, because there were no parents to pray for them, and the remaining teenagers were some orphans.
However, Captain Gu refused to stop there, and said that if Zhuyuan Public School was in trouble, then Wanshan Island would be close to the water to see if we could recruit some orphans or teenagers with reliable backgrounds for us through Xue Laixiang, the four Chinese businessmen and the church system, and directly send these teenagers to Zhuyuan Public School, and set up an independent class to carry out navigation training.
For this reason, the Supreme Executive Committee finally decided that in the future, orphans from all channels should be allocated some places to the navigation training class, and this time the 30 inland orphans sent by the Qiao family to Xiao Ai will also all enter the navigation class of Zhuyuan Public School to participate in the cultural training for half a year.
Next, the Red Mansion side naturally has to discuss the selection of the captains and management of these two ships, obviously this ship must not use outsiders as captains, we must use our own people.
In fact, the candidate Gu Jin has already proposed: a total of four people---- Zhu Beiguo, Xu Zhi, Hu Xiaolin and Peng Qiang.
At the same time, he also suggested that in view of the fact that Wang Gong's side would soon have a proud sister ship launched, Zhu Xu's captaincy was only a transition, and he suggested that the two would go to the new ship to be the captain and first mate respectively, and at that time, the captains of the two wooden sailing ships would be replaced by Hu Peng.
At the same time, the first mate and boatswain of these two wooden ships must also be our people, and in this way, the crew of the Nicole and the Pride will face a series of personnel changes.
At present, of the original 59 sailing cadets, 18 are fixed on the Pride, except for the older lawyer Li who is fixed on the Nicole as a boatswain, the remaining 30 are divided into three teams, and they take turns to intern on the Pride, of course, for the purpose of training crews for the future seven Pride sister ships.
In other words, the Pride usually has a crew of twenty-eight people, and of these crews, over a period of three years, seven captains and an equal number of first mates, boatswain, and chief engineers.
Obviously, in the near future, all of our ships, including the Pride and Nicole, will be filled with ordinary sailors from the Bamboo Garden School.
After that, I'm afraid that only the captain of each of our ships will be the traverser.
To this end, Gu Jin strongly demanded to strengthen the construction of the navigation training class of Zhuyuan Public School, and truly take precautions.
Inspired by the Red Mansion's magic modification of the two new ships, Xiao Ai sent a telegram to Macao in those two days, saying that since he wanted to change the magic ship, why not change the Assassin as well? He also said that now the Assassin had obtained the 600 mm light mortar cannon from the Pride, so that the ship finally had a fixed armament, but he still felt unsure, and after thinking about it, he finally found that the reason for the unreliability was speed and maneuverability.
So Xiao Ai said in a telegram to his family, can he also add Stirling engines to the Assassin like those two thousand ships?
However, soon the Red Mansion quickly replied that in that case, the more than 200 tons of payload of the Assassin would be occupied by this power system.
However, Xiao Ai actually became excited after receiving this reply, and he immediately called back to the Red Mansion and said, "That's good, let's change the military ship!"
Xiao Ai also said in the telegram that he heard that Boss Luo and they were working on artillery, which was still based on the 92 infantry gun, and if this cannon could be installed on the ship, the Assassin would be invincible!
However, Boss Luo immediately called back: Don't think about it now, the kind of naval artillery you are talking about will have to wait a little longer, and the current situation is: the cannon is easy to build, but the shell is difficult to reorganize.
Because Mr. Zhao is still experimenting, this thing will not come out, and all firearms plans will have to be postponed.
It is precisely because of this situation that we have made you a six-hundred-millimeter mortar gun with a very high technical content - in fact, it is a ** projectile canister.
Boss Luo also reminded Xiao Ai in the telegram, don't underestimate this mortar and medicine bag, it will explode so badly! I told you this last time, and now I repeat it again: at the nearest range of fifty meters, the weight of the kit cannot exceed three kilograms! Three kilograms! Three kilograms! Say the important thing three times, otherwise it will be no different from suicide!
Boss Luo also said, in fact, this kind of mortar cannon is not our first creation, it has appeared in the old world, and it was used in a civil war back then, and there are successful examples.
Although the range of this mortar cannon is less than 800 meters, this distance is enough in this era, and it can throw a bag weighing from two to ten kilograms at a time, and it is also very convenient to adjust the pitch angle.
Also, in order to increase the lethality, the medicine bag we provide is also mixed with metal fragments, which is secondary, the most powerful is the sonic shock caused by the ** explosion, and the close-range explosion will produce a very deadly shock wave, in the old world, this weapon was called "conscience cannon" by a group of users.
Boss Luo also said in the telegram that we only tested this gun three times, and we all felt a little afraid after using it, so you must be careful when you use it, according to the distance of the range, the charge of the medicine bag should not exceed four kilograms.
Especially when the range is between 50 meters and 100 meters, the family has experimented with the power of this thing, when it was just made, we used this thing to help Lao Zhu's pasture kill cattle---- when Lao Zhu surrounded three beef cattle with a wooden fence, and then we threw five kilograms of reinforced black **** bag from 300 meters away, ** bag exploded at a distance of about ten meters above the herd, the poor cattle were shocked to the ground on the spot, and the wooden fence was washed away by the shock wave.
We then went to the explosion to check, these cattle all fell to the ground and could not bleed, and after the autopsy, it was found that all the internal organs had destructive bleeding, but the skin was not even broken......
