Chapter 1288: Chariots and Empires

"Steel is also hard and strong enough, so why give it up?"

Yubun Nobunaga said: "Steel is a bad conductor of psionic energy, and there is no way to carve a complex formation system on steel. Moreover, once the steel is attacked by fire magic, its own temperature increases rapidly, and not only the people inside can't stand that high temperature, but also those psionic instruments.

Obsidian is different, it is a good carrier of the formation system itself, and using obsidian as the base material can achieve high-strength psionic defense and protect the vehicle from magic damage.

Moreover, the Obsidian's own defense is also enough to deal with ordinary physical attacks. Even if the opponent uses heavy objects to smash our chariots, at most they will smash the chariots into the ground, and the damage to the chariots will be limited, and the combat effectiveness of the chariots will not be affected. ”

"The defensive strength and stiffness of the chariot itself are sufficient, do you still need a defensive formation to enhance your defensive power?" asked Gu Tiancheng.

Yuwen Nobunaga said: "There is no material that can completely resist all kinds of magical attacks, on the battlefield, the natural enemy of the chariot is the magician on the opposite side, and defending against magical attacks is, of course, the most important thing." Using its own material properties to defend against magic attacks has a certain effect, but it is too damaging to the vehicle, and it will not take long for the vehicle to be scrapped. In contrast, while the Magical Defense system consumes psionic energy, it is more affordable in terms of cost than replacing an entire vehicle. ”

"How many psionic energy reserves do you need for this?" Gu Tiancheng muttered as he studied the chariot's power plant.

When they opened the lid of the back box of the chariot, everyone was shocked to find that inside the back box, occupying nearly half of the body, were four huge psionic storage cabinets in a neat row!

Seeing this, Yuwen Nobunaga hurriedly explained: "This is a special psionic energy storage cabinet, which uses a psionic energy compressor to compress psionic energy at a ratio of 100,000 to one, thus forming liquid psionic energy. The material of the cabinet is red rock formed by the cooling of the underground magma washed out by the volcanic eruption, which can resist strong pressure without deforming.

In terms of control, one is the piston switch, which controls the speed of psionic energy consumption by controlling the piston switch, and the other is the psionic pressure adjustment device, which changes the consumption rate of psionic energy by adjusting the psionic pressure, which can achieve accurate output of psionic energy and reduce waste.

Four psionic storage cabinets, three for power take-off, and one for firepower. Of course, it is not enough for a tank to have defense, it also needs to have the ability to defend itself. The main threat to the vehicle comes from the mage's legion, so the firepower output is also aimed at the mage's magic wall. The Psionic Cannon is specially designed for combat vehicles and is extremely powerful. It's just that the energy consumption is too great, and a psionic energy storage cabinet will be exhausted after a few shots can't be released. ”

Gu Tiancheng studied the power transmission device of the combat vehicle, as well as the chassis shock device. After all, there were many mature car designs in his previous life, and with the knowledge that Kerry mastered, Gu Tiancheng could completely look at the chariot in front of him with the eyes of an expert.

In Gu Tiancheng's opinion, although the chariot in front of him is very primitive, it already has combat effectiveness and can exert its power on the battlefield.

The only constraint is his weight. He was too heavy to pull him with human or animal power, so he had to move by his own power. It's good that the distance is close, but if it's too far, the consumption of the Light Energy Cabinet will not be able to stand it.

"How can this psionic storage cabinet be charged? If it can't be charged on the spot, it can only be replenished from the rear, and this chariot won't be of much use. Princess Wencheng's eyes were really vicious, and she could see the crux of the problem at a glance. Love Book House

Yuwen Nobunaga said: "This spiritual energy storage cabinet can be placed into a spirit gathering array to achieve self-recharge. However, the self-charging speed is too slow, and it may not be able to be filled in a few months, which is not practical. At present, it can only rely on rear replenishment. ”

"Is this psionic storage cabinet troublesome to make? If it is simple to make, it is not impossible to rely entirely on the rear to replenish it. Gavin Muki asked.

Yubun Nobunaga smiled, "If it was simple to make, we would have applied it on the battlefield a long time ago." Psionic storage cabinets are very troublesome to make, not to mention the limitation of the base material of the storage cabinet, the mere fact that psionic energy alone is a big constraint.

Although psionic energy is everywhere, in order to concentrate a large amount of psionic energy and compress it into a liquid state, it is necessary to set up psionic energy compression stations in various places, use the energy gathering array to initially compress the psionic energy, and then transport it to the first-level psionic energy concentration station in a unified manner. Standing in the Psionic Concentration, the accumulated Psionic Energy is compressed again and then transferred to the next level of Psionic Concentrator Station.

After three stages of transfer, it can then be concentrated in the storage cabinet factory for final compression molding. In this way, concentrating the spiritual power in the kingdom to produce spiritual energy storage cabinets can at most produce about ten storage cabinets per day, which is not enough to replenish one chariot.

Therefore, in order for the chariot to be used on the battlefield, there are only two ways to advance it at the same time: improve the chariot to reduce the loss of psionic energy, and expand the kingdom's territory and expand the source of spiritual power collection. ”

"According to what you say, only the Psychic Hall and the Seven Great Guilds can afford this chariot at the moment?" Ximen Ba smacked his tongue.

Yuwen Nobunaga nodded and said, "However, the Psychic Hall and the Seven Great Guilds have the most magicians in their hands, and they have no incentive to develop the chariot project. ”

Princess Wencheng's eyes flashed with a strange look, "According to what you say, this is the formation of the Reverse Empire." Mr. Mu and I have been studying the formation of empires, and we both believe that the current situation has the potential to give birth to new empires. Seeing your new vehicle now reinforces my thoughts. ”

Yubun Nobunaga's eyes lit up, "My family thinks so too, and has been preparing for the establishment of an empire. Just like this chariot, the war between kingdoms is actually useless at all, and with our Great Zhou's Black Cloud Iron Cavalry, it is enough to deal with. The chariot is to prevent the possible involvement of the Kingdom Guild.

Compared with the Kingdom Guild, our number of masters is seriously insufficient, and if we want to withstand the attack of the Kingdom Guild, we can only find another way, and the chariot is the reliable method we have come up with. It's just that it's still far from perfect, and it needs to be further improved. ”

Gavin Muqi said with a smile: "It's better to do this, Da Zhou, Worm and our Great Han are advancing the creation of the empire at the same time, and the Kingdom Guild will need to deal with the three empires under construction, and it is inevitable to divide the troops, and the pressure on each of us will be less." ”

Yuwen Nobunaga and Princess Wencheng shook their heads together, "No." We're different from Dahan. If the Han wants to establish an empire, I am afraid that the forces involved will not only be the Kingdom Guild. When the time comes, I am afraid that the Seven Great Guilds and the Psychic Hall will be alarmed. If the Great Han really wants to establish an empire, it is better not to be the first. ”

"Why?" was not just Gavin Muki asking, everyone else was asking in unison.
