【Chapter 266】 Curiosity kills orcs

Time is of the essence.

Before the orcs attack, every additional mine gives you an extra chance of winning. According to Mons's scouting, the orcs were already looking for a suitable place to set up camp. The orcs, who are eager for revenge, obviously have little patience, and may launch a full-scale attack in a few days.

Inside the tent, it took only a few minutes for a thumb-thick detonation tube to be installed. The reason why the speed is so fast is actually the use of ready-made shotguns, without the characteristics of the warhead, reversed is the perfect detonation part, on which a metal sleeve is added, and the firing pin, spring and limit pins can be set.

The basic version of the mine trigger method is roughly divided into three types: loose hair, pressure hair and pull/trip hair, among which the technical content of pulling and tripping hair is the lowest, the structure is also the simplest, and the shortcomings are also obvious, not concealed enough, and the durability is poor.

Considering issues such as time, materials, and, most importantly, the number of orcs.

Mines are very lethal and effective against hordes of infantry. But three hundred orcs, far from enough, pressed and loosened mines, need to be stepped on to trigger, and the efficiency has decreased.

Pull/trip mines, on the other hand, can greatly expand the range of defense by extending the length of the cable. As long as the explosion is filled with enough magic cotton and fragments to increase the power of the explosion, it can form a face kill.

Although not necessarily fatal, not all orcs have the ability to heal themselves, and ordinary orc warriors can still suffer damage and pain.

Once a large number of fragments enter the body, with the technical conditions of the orcs, it is a dream to take them out. Orc warriors who are crippled and injured will experience the feeling that life is worse than death, becoming a burden and causing panic among other orcs, effectively delaying the enemy's attack.

"This ...... Is that done?"

In their minds, this weapon, which is more powerful than that of orc hunters, must be more complicated. No one expected that the speed would be so fast.

Everyone was shocked, and their eyes became more awe-inspiring when they looked at Qin Song, and they also understood Qin Song's intention to prepare the shotgun.

What is called, into the bamboo in the chest!

What is called, far-sighted!

What is called, a clever calculation!

In an instant, I was convinced of everyone.

Wisdom turned out to be so powerful.

"It's not done yet, it's just the last step. Qin Song smiled and took the detonating tube that had just been tied to the cable from Alice's hand: "This is just a detonating tube, and it also needs a clay pot filled with magic cotton wool." Someone, would you like to help?"

"I, I!" Luna's excited little face flushed, eager to try.

"I don't think everybody should be idle. Sir Weimar laughed heartily, "The more anti-orc blasters, the better the odds of victory." Since it's that simple, let's bother Alice to make this detonating tube with the shotgun at hand. The rest of us, together we make clay pots. ”

"Yes!" Elena clenched her little fist as well, "It's better to bury this stuff in the ground." Let those disgusting orcs taste the taste of failure. ”

Karrick also smiled: "Leave the task of collecting clay pots to me." It seems that the clay pots of each family are going to be donated. ”

"Not only clay pots, but also pottery urns, soup pots, vases and so on. The more magic cotton you contain, the more powerful the explosion becomes. ”

"Hahaha, I'm going to use the soup pot to make an oversized anti-orc hunter! bigger than all of you! scare them to death!" Luna laughed proudly.

The dreary and gloomy were swept away, and the whole tent was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

The mine-making movement is unfolding in a hurry.

With the simple construction of the detonating tube, with Alice's magic, it took only two hours to create forty-six pieces. If it weren't for the need to keep a few shotguns as a backup, a day's work would be enough to make hundreds of detonating tubes.

The manufacture of the explosive department is even simpler, everyone works together, filling all kinds of containers with magic wool, fragments, stones, and pottery shards, compacting them, leaving grooves, installing detonation tubes, and sealing the gaps with clay and wooden boards.

Soon, a large number of oddly shaped mines of various sizes were born.

Looking at those rustic clay pots, vases, pottery urns, and soup pots, listed together, Qin Song had a feeling of dreaming of mine warfare.

A four-hundred-meter defensive line, forty-six mines. Coupled with the right distance of the cable, it is enough to achieve line coverage. As long as enough time is bought to create more high-end mines, such as trick mines and jump mines, to further increase the concealment and lethality.

Due to the direct use of shotguns, the detonation rate is guaranteed, and there is no need to even test the explosion experiment.

The orcs rarely attack during the day, and in order to ensure the concealment of mines, the best time to plant them is close to dawn. So at Qin Song's suggestion, these mines were loaded onto caravans and transported to the front line in the early morning.

In order to ensure safety, not only all the witches were dispatched, but the soldiers were also all loaded with guns and ammunition, and they were preparing to bury mines!

Because the height required to pull the line is not completely buried in the soil, the desolate area on the edge of the forest, littered with gravel and bush, provides excellent concealment.

"Be careful, don't use too much force when laying it. Keep your distance from each other. The larger the wire, the longer the cable. The shrubs here - stones, can be used to tie up the pull thread. It should be understood that just like a tripwire, an orc can trigger an explosion by touching the cable and pulling out the bayonet. ”

"Be careful, if you don't want to be blown apart, you must control the strength of the cable. ”

Under Qin Song's instructions, ten mine-laying sappers were selected, that is, the ten soldiers who survived to the end in the test gun a few days ago, and their hands were particularly stable.

"Bury me first, I'll bury this!" Luna excitedly pointed to the vase mine she had made herself, and asked the warrior to carefully half-bury it in the bushes, pull out a pull string, and drop it on a stone not far away.

"Be careful, everybody be careful. Did you hear what the commander said? If you don't want to die, hold your hands steady. ”

......

"Gluck, what are those people doing early in the morning?" On a lush beech tree at the edge of the forest, two orc warriors hid under the dense foliage, looking through the gaps at the busy figures a hundred meters away.

Since it was still dark and dim, I could only distinguish the human figures, and I couldn't see what I was doing.

"I can't see clearly. On the branch next to him, leaning on a five-year-old orc, chewing grass roots in his mouth: "They won't be stupid enough to attack the jungle, will they? ”

"Hmph...... Don't underestimate this. I heard from the leader that Camuro led thirty warriors to attack here, and he has not returned. ”

"You said the leader's men were defeated...... There is no way to destroy such a weak human being? Gluck picked up the leaves, looked at the busy crowd in the distance, narrowed his eyes, and laughed cruelly: "This glory is destined to belong to the leader." I can't wait to taste the blood. Perhaps, I may also become a blood warrior blessed by my ancestors. ”

"I always thought it was a little weird, what the hell were those people doing, looking for something, or what? one moment pulling the grass, the other carrying rocks. And those weird big jars, what's that?"

"Brother Lom. Gluck smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Humans always do strange things, like growing crops...... Ha ha. ”

"The boss has explained that this place is unusual. Any wind and grass must be investigated, this is our responsibility. I don't want to go back and be punished for this kind of thing. ”

"It's so easy to do. When it gets dark, call the brothers and see what the hell they can do. Gluck licked his lips with a strange smile on his face, "Maybe they're preparing a tomb for themselves." It's a wise choice, it's a bit of a waste of delicate and delicious flesh. ”

When the sun's rays covered the earth again, all those people left, leaving only the endless wilderness, bathed in brilliant sunshine, as if nothing had changed.

And the orcs, after an anxious and long wait, finally ushered in their favorite night.

"Brothers, do you all see them? What are those people doing?"

"I don't know. ”

"Looking for something?"

"It's like moving stones. ”

The last rays of the sun sank into the top of the mountain, and on the edge of the Hurek Forest, five or six orcs gathered together, crouching on the ground and discussing.

However, the distance is too far to see clearly.

But this strange behavior successfully aroused the curiosity of the orcs. Soon, they agreed to reach out at night to see what was going on.
