Chapter 224: The Power of Technology
There are no thermal weapons in the Marfa continent, but the powerful power of magicians and Taoists is far beyond ordinary thermal weapons, and in fact, unless the profession of warrior is of a particularly high level, the status is usually soldier-level, but magicians and Taoists are different, and the awakening of these two professions is much more difficult than that of warriors.

And because of the difficulty of awakening and the great potential for war, every mage and Taoist priest is actually a guest of the major forces, and the major forces use the number of Taoist priests and mages in their respective forces as a standard to measure the strength of a force.
After all, if you are a warrior, you really can't pull in a few civilians, and there are a dozen, but a profession like a mage with long-range and large-scale destruction is not so easy to replace, and so is the Taoist, who has a certain output ability, as well as pets, and can also give blessings to various states around him, so the Taoist priest is also a guest of the major forces.
And the reason why the troops of the Beechcraft Kingdom uncharacteristically pressed the border city after converging was precisely because there was no obstacle from the jungle and no deterrence from the position, the troops of the Beechcraft Kingdom could let the soldiers in front, and then let the Taoist priests and mages unscrupulously cover the rear with firepower.
In contrast, among Lianyang's troops, in fact, the mainstream is still warriors, and it is simply nonsense for you to let a simple-minded nomad like a half-orc play some high-intelligence things, and it is difficult to understand particularly advanced things with the wisdom of a nomad.
But on the contrary, the border city of Lianyang was established for an extremely short time, and it was originally just a border village, although there were also a few mages, but on the whole, compared to the tens of millions of warriors in Lianyang, the number of mages and Taoists in the border city was equivalent to none.
Although Hyde is not responsible for directly directing the battle, as a high-end combatant, Hyde will still stand on the highest watchtower on the city wall and keep an eye on the battle situation below, and when he saw that the troops of the Beechcraft Kingdom were unscrupulously using mage troops and Taoist troops to suppress the border city, a sneer suddenly crossed the corner of his mouth.
I saw that Li Zhong, as the commander-in-chief, looked at the unscrupulous mage troops of the Beech Kingdom outside the city, and suddenly smiled gloomily, and said, "Use our secret weapon to teach that weak mage like a girl, what is called violence." ”。
"Yes!" The herald also looked excited, and immediately trotted to announce the news that the secret weapon was going to be dispatched.
The border city was built late and has a thin foundation, Lian Yang naturally knows it, especially he knows very well that although he has tens of millions of troops in his hands, he is still alive by attacking the city, but if he wants to fight with a force like the Beech Kingdom, no matter how many troops there are, it is useless, because no matter how many soldiers he has, he can't bear the consumption of the mages. Carrying a large knife, how could he have hit the enemy's aircraft artillery?
However, Lian Yang came from the earth after all, although there is no supernatural existence like a magician Taoist on the earth, but the earth has more scientific thermal weapons, and when it comes to power, hehe, compared with the mage and Taoist troops of the Beech Kingdom, it is really difficult to say who is stronger.
And the principle of thermal weapons is actually not too difficult, in the case of cannons, the cannon itself is a strong steel pipe, and then the steel pipe can carry enough pressure to fire the shell.
The artillery shell is relatively complex, and it is just a matter of a propellant and a warhead, and the propellant is an instantaneous burst of hot pressure in the barrel to launch the warhead.
The warhead is the steel shell, and then the explosives are placed inside, some are timed fuses, some are trigger fuzes, no matter what kind of trigger conditions are achieved anyway, the shell itself will explode, and then bring damage to the target.
The early artillery on the earth has poor power, poor accuracy, and short range, because it is difficult for the early steelmaking technology to refine good steel that can meet the standard, so we will easily find that the early World War II artillery penetration depth of 200 mm is considered a good gun, while the modern artillery penetration depth is not 7,800, 1000 is embarrassed to see people.
Although it is said that it is because of the progress of science and technology, the artillery-making process is also improving, but in the final analysis, it is the refining technology of steel that has advanced. In the Marfa Continent, although people do not have any thermal weapons, but the cold weapon era that has lasted for tens of thousands of years, coupled with all kinds of magical magic, Lian Yang was surprised to find that the steelmaking technology of the Marfa Continent seems to be stronger than that of the earth.
It just so happened that Lian Yang knew that he didn't have enough long-range and large-scale professions like mages and Taoists, so the hot weapon entered Lian Yang's plan as soon as possible.
After mobilizing enough thermal weapon information from the Hope System and Lian Yang asked the gunsmith Alice to provide various technical support, Lian Yang chose a group of people with better brains, and then gave money to people, and it didn't take long for people to build the earliest cannon for Lian Yang. After this test firing, Lian Yang was surprised to find that it seemed that the power of the cannons on the Marfa Continent was to surpass the power of the earth artillery of the same level.
And what about the cost? The cost of a 150 mm howitzer in the Marfa Continent is at best the price of a mage's group of blue medicines, and in terms of power, a 150 mm caliber cannon with one shell, Lian Yang estimated that an ice roar of a level 35 mage is powerful.
And such a low-cost and powerful weapon of war, Lian Yang has naturally vigorously developed, after all, thermal weapons are the real king of war.
A bit of a digression, I saw that with Li Zhong's order, in the surprised eyes of the troops of the Beech Kingdom, a dense hole was slowly opened on the solid city wall in front of him, and there was a dark and thick iron pot in each big hole.
The general of the Beech Kingdom looked at the border city wall in front of him, which could be described as 'full of holes', and suddenly sneered and said, "What is this border city for?" Do you know that you can't defeat the troops of our Beechcraft Kingdom, so dig your own grave first? ”。
Without the self-defeat of the general of the Beech Kingdom, the commander of the Beech Kingdom frowned and said, "General, I always have a bad premonition, those iron pipes on the city wall don't look like something simple. ”。
The general of the Beech Kingdom waved his hand absently and said, "You think too much, can those iron pipes still emit any magic!" What a fuss! ”。
The general of the Beachy Kingdom is now the time when the spring breeze is proud, under his hands, the warriors who charge are called a dim sky, and the mage regiment and the Taoist regiment are also beating the border city and can't raise their heads, he will not believe that Lian Yang has any backhand.
On the other hand, Li Zhong and Haide and others on the city wall found that the Beechcraft Kingdom troops had no other reaction to the city defense cannon that had been openly unveiled except for the initial surprise, and they were immediately happy.
Li Zhongna also struck while the iron was hot, and immediately ordered: "Open the cannon!" Let these idiots feel the power of technology! ”。
With Li Zhong's order, I saw that tens of thousands of cannons with a caliber of more than 200 mm placed inside the walls of the border city suddenly exploded with a "boom".
And with every violent explosion, you can clearly see that the troops of the Beech Kingdom were instantly cleared out of an open space, and the sharp knife of the Lord of War finally showed his ferocity in the Marfa continent.
And the cannon of this border city roared, and the general of the Beech Kingdom and the commander of the Beech Kingdom on the other side were almost frightened by the sight in front of them.
First, the cannon is a pure weapon of war, not to mention the infinite power, the momentum is also very large, and the roaring roar even makes the general of the Beechcraft Kingdom who is a few kilometers away have a deafening feeling.
The second is that the power of the cannon is really terrifying, Nima, the power of the early 150mm cannon is already comparable to the power of the ice roar of the 35-level mage, and now the power of the 200-mm heavy cannon that has developed several generations is even more devastating.
The third is the number, don't look at the fact that the Beechcraft Kingdom has mobilized a total of 20 million troops, but in fact, the magicians who are really full of it together are only 40,000, and the Taoist priests are more, but it is only about 100,000 numbers. The walls of the border city are particularly tall because of the expansion, and because of the reinforcement by magicians, there is a 200 mm cannon almost every other meter, and there are at least 50,000 guns at a cursory check.
And the most troublesome thing is that the power of the cannons in the border city is much greater than that of the mages of the Beech Kingdom, so in the case of being caught off guard, Li Zhongna taught the troops of the Beech Kingdom how to behave.
However, the commander of the Beechcraft Kingdom is also a veteran of the battlefield, although he was caught off guard by the secret weapon of the border city, but after a short observation, he still understood the operation mechanism of the cannon.
The commander of the Beech Kingdom decisively ordered: "Everyone disperse, disperse, the opponent's artillery is a range strike!" ”。 Although it is said that the unlucky ones are still not good, but they can reduce the casualties as much as possible, right?
After the commander of the Beech Kingdom commanded the front-line soldiers, he immediately continued: "Send me a trebuchet and a bed crossbow, and break all the iron pipes on the opposite wall!" Then order the mage troops and the Taoist troops to give priority to attacking the opponent's attack system. ”。
The commander of the Beech Kingdom is indeed powerful, just three strikes and five divisions by two, and a few orders in an instant, which immediately made the Beech Kingdom troops, who had lost confidence by the artillery of the border city, surge in battle again. (To be continued.) )
