Chapter 265: Rocket Artillery

Several people quickly came to Wang Benzi's experimental area, and Wang Benzi, who had just fired a few shots, was measuring the firing range and walking forward step by step along the firing distance.

"Benzi! The result? The head and his wife have come to see you! The cabinet shouted from afar.

Benzi hurriedly put down the work in his hand, trotted over and said, "The head of the regiment and the two ladies have come to report to Benzi!" ”

"Well, we're attracted by your cannons! I heard that you are improving the "swarm of bees", how is the effect? Ogura asked.

"According to calculations, the firing range should reach five kilometers! But after several consecutive experiments, the distance reached up to three and a half kilometers, and I am really looking for the reason! Benzi said with annoyance.

"Huh!" Ogura was not a little surprised, the range of the conventional "swarm of bees" is only 400 meters, which is almost a tenfold increase!

"Go over there and take a look! Let me tell you more about your research! "Next time, I can't wait to see how it was transformed!

"Good!" Benzi brought this kind of person to the launch site, only to see a giant swarm of swarm launchers standing on the sand, and the rocket next to it was also much bigger!

The powder cartridge under the arrow is as thick as an egg, more than 20 centimeters long, and there is a small round ball in the shape of a grenade in front of it, and the shaft of the arrow passes through the middle like a sugar gourd, connecting the powder cartridge, the ball and the arrowhead. It's very powerful and domineering!

"Regiment commander, a barium sulfate substance was found in the shells of the captured devils, which burned for a long time and exploded powerfully. I wondered if using this gunpowder on a bazooka would be more lethal? ”

"Let the blacksmith deliberately only make this kind of rocket, the front one is equivalent to a grenade, and the rocket can fly out to achieve the effect of fixed-point blasting on the design target!"

"According to the calculation of gunpowder combustion, the range is enough to reach five kilometers, but now it is only a little more than three kilometers, and it is still trying to improve!" Wang Benzi told his design ideas in one breath.

"Excellent! As long as once realized, greatly increase our combat effectiveness! "Ogura was shocked, this is a rocket launcher in modern society! If this is studied and understood, it will be much easier to fight devils!

Why don't you just try to improve it according to the shape of the rocket shell! As soon as he said it, Kokura took a rocket and studied it carefully, picked up a branch and drew it on the ground.

Studying weapons is Ogura's special hobby, and once you immerse yourself in it, you lose track of time! Shapes, explosion parts, propulsion parts, center of gravity, etc., all kinds of factors are pouring out! Two weapon obsessives go into obsession!

Naturally, they will not accompany them all the time, and they have already gone to the river to see the scenery! It wasn't until dusk that I came over to remind the two of you that it was time to go back!

"You two can really do it, squatting on the ground for an afternoon! Aren't your legs numb? Zaohua said.

"It's early! But it's worth it! Ogura was excited, and after an afternoon of discussion, the two basically determined the improved structure of the rocket, and waited for the first batch of experiments to come out to see the effect!

"It's worth it! Definitely worth it! I drew the drawings overnight and asked the blacksmiths to process the experiments, so that they could experiment tomorrow morning! With this thing, fighting devils is like playing! Refreshing! "Wang Benzi has gained a lot and is full of enthusiasm!

"Let's go, eat first! I'll join in after eating, and I'll be able to produce results tomorrow! Ogura was also excited, and pulled Benzi to eat. The two ladies looked at each other and smiled bitterly!

That night, the two of them pulled the blacksmith and talked all night until 10 o'clock at dawn finally made the first experiment!

The test specimen is about one meter long, and the arrow is cone-mounted, and the grenade is attached to the explosive site, and the propulsion zone and balance zone are attached to the link. The whole process is spindle-shaped, and the lines are smooth.

The three of them couldn't wait to come to the river and come up with a simple launcher ignition test!

"Commander, give her a name!" Benzi said excitedly.

"Well, let's call it rocket artillery!" This thing is very different from modern rocket artillery, but the prototype has come out, and the principle is the same.

"Good! It's called rocket artillery! Bazookas, rocket launchers, these are all inventions of our Mo Knife Regiment! Refreshing! I'm proud! The blacksmith shouted from the side.

"Pride! We are all proud! Ogura was also infected, "Ignition experiment!" ”

"Ah~huh! ~Rumble! ~”

After ignition, the rocket launcher drew a beautiful curve and flew into the distance, and finally exploded!

The three of them quickly got on their horses and galloped over to check the effect.

"My goodness! This is worth the explosive effect of the infantry artillery, right? If only dozens of them flew out at the same time like a "swarm of bees"! Benzi shouted when he saw the crater.

"It's almost seven kilometers away! Good! Just according to this mass production, the launchers will be shot in groups of nine! Aiming systems are all brought! Turn back and mount it on the battleship and take the place of the infantry gun! Ogura was very satisfied, and immediately decided to carry it on the "Yellow River Ship"!

"Okay! As long as you can fight devils, you will die of laughter even if you are tired to death! The blacksmith said.

The three of them were so excited that they once again entered the launch frame design discussion!

After a few days of inspection, the coastline of Shanghai has been checked by the devils through a sieve, but there is no trace of Kogura and his party!

"General, there is no news of the enemy!" The assistant is very depressed, he can obviously make meritorious contributions, but he has searched all the places where the enemy may appear, but he is nowhere to be seen!

Umezu Mijiro frowned, never understanding where the enemy had gone.

"Report to the general, Sasaki sent a telegram." The soldier rushed in and reported.

"Read!"

"Hey! Zhao Mancang, the head of the Modao Regiment, and his party have returned to Jingzhou, and they have been active in the shipyard for the past few days! The soldier read.

"It can't be! How did they get back? The assistant went crazy first, snatched the telegram and roared.

"Yaga! What a system! Umezu Mijiro scolded, "You go down first!" ”

"Hey!" The soldier went down.

"General, I'm sorry! It was my mistake! The enemy may have landed somewhere else and returned to the lair! The assistant said with annoyance.

"There is no point in pursuing these now! We have to admit that the enemy has become a full-fledged enemy of ours! The puppy has grown into a big wolf! Umezu Mijiro sighed.

"General, the telegram said that the enemy would be operating in the shipyard as soon as he returned, and this time he went to Shanghai for the shipyard. What is their purpose? Do you want to form a navy and go to sea? The assistant replied, puzzled.

"This ...... It's not impossible! If you transport it alone, you can requisition fishing boats, and it is impossible to buy things from the Germans! Umezu Mijiro said vigilantly.

The enemy's shipbuilding with great fanfare, the plan must be not small! I didn't think about it before, but this time, after being reminded by the assistant, I thought that it was very likely to be the transfer of the enemy's strategic target, and I couldn't help but guard against it!
