There are also levels within the Spirit Clan, which are three stages, the first order is the most ordinary ordinary Spirit Clan, and then it is more advanced, similar to the knights in the infantry, which belong to the High Spirit Clan, and then there is the royal family at the level of generals and marshals.

The news was fed back almost instantaneously through the psychic network, and in the eyes of the soldiers on Zhong Junxiu's side, after they finished shooting ten rounds, the fog was less than ten meters away from them, and they were all weak and couldn't run, thinking that they were going to be devoured.

In the past three months, the spirits in the forest of Verdas have launched three attacks on the side of Moss, and the first two times they were filled with thousands of lives before they were able to resist.

Only this time, they repelled the fog almost unharmed, which couldn't help but cause them to sit on the ground, not forgetting to treat the musket in their hands like an artifact, and many inexplicable emotions arose in their hearts.

Zhong Junxiu didn't pay much attention to these human musketeers, their behavior was normal, and firearms could indeed provide them with such confidence.

"It's still not possible, we have to speed up the production of artillery, and against this kind of opponent hiding in the fog, it is still the most suitable to wash the ground with shells, and the income generated by explosive bullets is too cost-effective."

Zhong Junxiu closed his eyes and sensed it, in order to defend against the invasion of the Spirit Clan, in addition to the side of Moss Stone City, there were three human battalions composed of 1,000 people each, responsible for resisting the Spirit Clan coming out of the Verdas Forest in the east at any time.

The Vortex Mountains, with the exception of a part of the western part of the country, bordered the Forest of Verdas in the northeast, and the long defensive line forced him to devote a full 30,000 alien troops, divided into more than a dozen troops, using long-range weapons to hold off the attack of the mist as much as possible, and not let them plunder too many people.

After obtaining first-hand information on the battlefield, Zhong Junxiu already knew how to better improve firearms to face the threat of the Spirit Clan.

He quickly rushed back to the production line in the mountains of the Vortex Mountains, rolled up his sleeves and directly served as a commander on the front line, and the powerful spiritual energy diffused, instantly controlling the dwarves on a whole line, using their eyes and hands to quickly modify the firearms that had just been collected from the battlefield.

The adjustment of the musket was only slightly, and Zhong Junxiu then went to the laboratory where the artillery was studied.

In fact, the team that was able to develop a musket with explosive bullets was already quite capable of developing a cannon in principle.

The problem is that the increase in size also means that the material must be changed, rather than just the principle remains the same can be directly enlarged and manufactured, the small volume of the ant can lift a hundred-fold weight object, but to enlarge the ant to the size of a human, the huge gravitational pull of the ant will make it unable to lift a hundred-fold weight of the object.

The relationship between muskets and cannons is the same, the impact gunpowder of the bullet can be borne by the barrel, but when the size of the bullet is enlarged to the level of the shell, the amount of impact gunpowder contained in it also increases, even if the steel of the original cast barrel is enlarged according to the size ratio to cast the barrel, the end result is definitely that the barrel will explode as long as one shot, and the barrel must be made of stronger materials.

As a result, the artillery that should have appeared around the same time, as the dwarves had to test the strength of a variety of steels, and only now had two of them chosen.

Zhong Junxiu personally went down at this time, and quickly and completely verified the substances of these two kinds of steel, one has higher hardness but is more fragile, and the other is slightly weaker than the former but much tougher, so naturally he did not hesitate to choose the latter.

Weapons can be a lot of trouble to maintain, and in a world where it's hard to climb high-tech anymore, the durability of the leather is far more important than the subtlety and weirdness.

With this design concept in mind, Zhong Junxiu led a hybrid development team of several hundred dwarves and humans, and it only took a week to toss the new cannon.

The cannon is very rudimentary, just like the man's thing erected, the two movable wheels below, and a thick ten-fold diameter long body tube to ensure accurate range and power, barely belong to the category of mortars, as for the details of the gun carriage, it is the real technical core of this mortar.

Zhong Junxiu's incarnate mind is full of various industrial system standards, especially those obtained from the Red Police, there are multiple sets of industrial system standards from the Soviet Union and Allied countries, even what kind of steel is used, how to distinguish the material of steel, and what simple methods can be used to test the ingredients, these related and even related to chemical knowledge are stuffed into the brain, if you can't easily copy gunpowder weapons in another world, you are either lazy out of the realm or mentally flawed.

On the industrial line, the hollow iron balls go through a process, the gunpowder is manually filled, and then passed to the operator of the next process, and the melting and sealing begins, and finally the fist-sized black cannonballs are packed in a wooden box separated by wooden boards.

"The next step is to continue the rhythm of violent weapons, which is really too much time in this world."

Zhong Junxiu's incarnation rarely showed a faint impatient sneer, if he hadn't cared about the nine-faced dragon god before, how could he honestly stay in the Vortex Mountain Range for eighteen years to hunt and raise his body, this kind of time and harvest is already a great imbalance loss for him, and he already wants to change the status quo.

Now, after returning from the original world, the main body has shown the ability to confront the nine-faced dragon god head-on and protect himself, and the stage that allows him to show his strength has finally expanded.

……

Five hundred-meter-high clouds of mist set off from the Verdas Forest at the same time, and they surged along five directions, towards the east of Mossy City, the north of the middle of the Vortex Mountains, and the northeast of the three mountain entrances.

It's just that as soon as they came out of the forest, this undisguised movement was discovered by the falcons in the sky that were hovering and scouting all the time, almost at the same time, these falcons saw the images of these fog clouds, and their minds seemed to be touched by a certain string, and immediately a faint brain wave was generated, along the lines of the space belonging to another dimension in the void, and quickly transmitted to the center of the Star Vortex Mountain Range several miles away.

"Just in time!"

The High Spirit Clan in this forest also felt that it was time to launch a powerful attack to break the deadlock, and Zhong Junxiu, who was also here, was not surprised, and immediately asked his subordinates to quickly transport the latest batch of mortars out of the mountain and transport them to various battlefields, ready to test the Ling Clan in the Wildas Forest.
