Chapter 559: Mortar Test, Only One Meter Flying!
She took two more sips, put down the teacup, and opened the metal lid of the tray on the other side with her shiny left hand.
Inside the metal lid is a white ceramic plate, and at this moment, in this white porcelain plate, some fruits are being cut into small pieces.
The fruit has an attractive fruity aroma and some juice on the plate.
In addition, some of the fruits are sliced apples with only a slight discoloration of the flesh on them.
It looks like it was freshly cut, but it's quite fresh.
Qian Fei'er said in her heart, took a fruit skewer with her right index finger and thumb, pricked a small apple slice, put it in her mouth, and bit it down.
The apples are very crisp, not much moisture, very sweet, because the skin has been peeled off, there is no astringency, quite delicious.
Qian Fei'er was very satisfied and ate two more bites.
After eating, Master Luo had already walked out of the arsenal, and he quickly came to Qian Fei'er and bowed respectfully.
"Subordinate Luo ......, see Her Majesty the Empress."
Qian Fei'er put down the fruit skewer and metal lid and waved her hand.
"Alright, get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Luo Fang replied respectfully and got up.
Qian Fei'er looked at the owner of Luo Fang and asked, "Master Luo, how are the mortars and grenades that you made a few days ago?" ”
Master Luo bowed slightly, and responded respectfully.
"Back to Her Majesty's words, grenades and mortars have been made, but they are ......"
Master Luo's face was a little embarrassed, and his brows were slightly wrinkled.
"Just what, what's the problem just say."
Qian Fei'er raised her chin and motioned for Master Luo to continue.
Fang Master Luo nodded, but the two sword eyebrows were still wrinkled, showing no signs of relief, and his face was still a little worried.
“…… However, the newly made weapons have not been tested, and there is still a certain risk, and if you use it rashly, I am afraid that there will be an unexpected situation. ”
Fang Master Luo looked at Qian Fei'er worriedly.
"Your Majesty, let your subordinates try it first, you are trying to use it, it will be more secure."
Luo Fang didn't dare to be careless, Qian Fei'er has multiple identities, she is not only the empress of the Wuhun Empire, but also the pope of the Wuhun Palace, the spokesperson and messenger of the gods, and the inventor and manufacturer of many advanced weapons.
If there is any accident in the experiment, he loses his head and bears the infamy of the ages, and is dug up by someone, digs up the ancestral grave and even pulls out the whipping corpse, that is really terrifying!
Luo Fang owner doesn't want to be at peace after his death. Therefore, he would rather take the risk himself than let Qian Fei'er try it rashly.
In front of Lord Luo, Qian Fei'er heard his words, smiled casually, took out a folding fan from her soul guide bracelet, and fanned it gently.
"It's okay, a small cannonball, it can't hurt me."
When the owner of Luo Fang heard this, he knew that the empress would not change her mind, and while sighing in his heart, he also made a final request.
"Your Majesty, then you use the smallest caliber mortar, if the smallest caliber is problematic, you don't have to try the others."
If the smallest caliber is fine, then it's basically done!
Master Luo said in his heart.
On the other side, Qian Fei'er thought about it and felt that it made sense, so she nodded approvingly.
"Okay, just do as you say."
Then, the owner of Luo Fang brought three newly made mortars from the inside of the arsenal and put them all in front of Qian Fei'er.
These are three guns with barrels more than one meter long.
The three guns are large and small, arranged in order from small to large, with a caliber of 60 mm, a caliber of 90 mm, and a caliber of 120 mm.
The barrels of all three guns were more than a meter long, and a square metal pad was installed at the bottom to counteract the recoil.
In front is a height-adjustable bipod for adjusting the elevation angle of the mortar to adjust the attack range and aiming.
Next to each of the three guns, there was a small wooden box where shells of the corresponding caliber were placed.
Unlike howitzer shells, these mortar shells do not have a larger cylinder than the warhead, that is, the shell part.
Their warheads are as large as their remaining volume, and at the very end are some metal wings that appear to be used to stabilize flight.
Qian Fei'er took a look at it, and put all the mortars and shells into her soul guide.
Putting it away, she got into the car again, started the car, drove in the direction of the outside of the city, and after a while, she came to the shooting range outside the city.
After parking the car, Qian Fei'er stepped out of the car.
At the same moment, behind him, the door of a dark black car opened, and a middle-aged man with an elegant and easy-going appearance, a straight nose and a square mouth, and a folding fan in his hand walked out.
On the right breast of the man's garment, there is an embroidered symbol of a colorful pagoda.
Seven Treasure Glazed Sect Master, Ning Fengzhi!
Behind Ning Fengzhi, the skeleton was wide, more than two meters and a half tall, and the eye sockets were deep, and the old man also stepped down from the car and guarded Ning Fengzhi's body closely.
Ning Fengzhi looked at Qian Fei'er in front of him, smiled slightly, and shook the folding fan in his hand.
"Congratulations to Her Majesty the Empress for successfully developing a new type of weapon, the Martial Spirit Empire is afraid that the unification of the continent is just around the corner."
When speaking, although Ning Fengzhi's expression was very easy-going and casual, the depths of his eyes were very hot, flashing with excitement and excitement!
These days, Ning Fengzhi has been following Qian Fei'er's side, witnessing all kinds of new weapons developed by Qian Fei'er, including new howitzers, rifles, machine guns, 40mm machine guns and so on.
Ning Fengzhi had never thought of these things before, let alone seen them!
These novelty gadgets opened Ning Fengzhi's eyes, and now, he couldn't wait to see the magical weapons newly created by Her Majesty the Empress.
What will be the effect of this so-called "mortar"?
Ning Fengzhi is looking forward to it.
Ahead, Qian Fei'er responded to Ning Fengzhi with a smile.
"This is also thanks to the merits of the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect, without the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect, I am a Qianfei'er ......"
Qian Fei'er sighed.
"How can I, Qianfei'er, be able to create such a powerful weapon?"
Ning Fengzhi pursed his lips.
Thanks to the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Sect? What's the matter with my Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect?!
I'm afraid it's not a compliment to send me away.
What a she-fox!
Thinking in his heart, Ning Fengzhi hugged his fists, with a warm smile on his face.
"Where, Her Majesty the Empress is extremely smart, such a small weapon is naturally easy to make, but since Her Majesty the Empress said that my Seven Treasure Glazed Sect has merit......
Ning Fengzhi hung a little smug on the corner of his mouth.
"Then Your Majesty the Empress might as well let me wait for the Seven Treasure Liuli Sect to also participate in the research and development and production of these new weapons, after all, there are still some affiliated families of our sect that need to defend themselves."
This is the opportunity to ask to participate in the development, old fox!
Qian Fei'er scolded in her heart, but on the surface, she rolled her eyes and nodded with a chuckle.
"What Sect Master Ning said is very polite, why don't you let your sect's affiliated families move into Heaven Dou City together, become an imperial department, and accept the position of the public service department, so that all the research and development processes can be involved, right?"
Qian Fei'er chuckled lightly, and from her expression and squinting eyes, Ning Fengzhi couldn't see any clues.
However, not being able to see does not mean that you cannot guess!
Hearing Qian Fei'er say this, Ning Fengzhi smiled.
"Hehe, it's not good to answer this question directly, wait for me to return to the sect and discuss it with them."
It's a ghost! I won't let the affiliated sects join the Martial Spirit Palace! If you join, you won't even have a way out!
Ning Fengzhi vetoed very decisively in his heart.
Qian Fei'er looked at Ning Fengzhi and excused herself, although she was not persecuted in her words, she was a little indignant in her heart.
Enter my Martial Spirit Empire, eat me and take mine, I also gave the Nine Treasure Glazed Pagoda the opportunity to evolve, and I didn't even want to join a subsidiary sect, stingy!
Qian Fei'er glanced at Ning Fengzhi in her heart, but she smiled lightly on her face, and like Ning Fengzhi, she took out a folding fan, opened it with a "bang", and fanned it gently.
"Hehe, then I look forward to Sect Master Ning being able to discuss happily with those sects."
"Hehe, hehe......"
Ning Fengzhi responded with a gentle smile.
In the eyes of others, this is like two elegant people, talking happily with each other, but in their hearts, they are scolding each other and scolding each other's old foxes.
After a while, the two finished complimenting and came to a test site together.
It was a trench testing ground, with an empty open field in front and several straight trenches dug in the back.
The trench digging straight, of course, does not meet the regulations and tactical requirements, the straight trench is easy to be figured out by people, if a shell hits, you can follow the same elevation angle, the trench can be continuously and high-intensity strike.
In this way, the trenches will not be very useful in hiding from enemy artillery fire.
However, now that this is the hinterland of the Martial Spirit Empire, it is a very deep internal location, and it is almost completely impossible to attack Heaven Dou City.
Therefore, this trench was dug quite haphazardly.
On the trench, Qian Fei'er took out a small, 60-millimeter mortar and lowered it to the ground.
Put it away, and her slender jade hand swiped it on the soul guide bracelet on her wrist.
"Boom!"
A small wooden box fell to the ground, filled with not very large mortar shells.
Qian Fei'er bent down, picked up a shell from the ground, stood up again, and put the bottom part of the mortar shell with a tail into the mortar muzzle.
Ning Fengzhi stood aside and watched intently, for fear of missing any details.
The next moment, Qian Fei'er let go of her hands that were as smooth as jade, and let the mortar shell slide freely from the muzzle along the barrel.
"Boom!"
The barrel of the mortar pushed back to the ground, and a slightly conical object with a tail flame ejected a little height from the barrel, and then fell down, falling a little in front of the mortar.
When Qian Fei'er saw it, she was instantly shocked.
"Lie down!"
She slapped Ning Fengzhi next to her, and when Ning Fengzhi looked confused, she slapped him directly into the trench.
The two men lay down in the trenches, hearing only the faint sound of gunpowder burning, and then there was no movement.
