Chapter 134: Rifled Cannon
At LONGi's test range, military personnel and a large number of technicians gathered to carefully admire the doubled performance of the Iron Fist II.
The caliber is seventy-five millimeters and weighs eighteen pounds.
The most important thing is that the firing range reaches two kilometers, and the error can be within two meters. It's a battlefield weapon.
The previous Iron Fist 1 basically used ricochet tactics to expand the range when it reached a kilometer away, and the shells hitting the ground obviously affected the accuracy.
This time, the Iron Fist Type 1 is a shot into the soul, hitting the cannonball directly on the enemy's head. And this time the shells are also specific, changing from round shells to cylindrical shells. But in the case of scattershots, this means that a shell can contain more bullets. produces greater lethality, of course, this time the protagonist is still the flowering bomb.
The power generated by the explosion inside will deal a fatal blow to the enemy.
The shell spiraled along the chamber to the bottom, and the soldier touched the ignition rod to the lead.
Zizi~
In the midst of everyone's anxious waiting, the shells spun out, hitting an unexpected target two kilometers away, and blowing the wooden house to pieces.
There was a round of applause.
Besson also has greater expectations for the Tekken II.
Although he is also a participant in the Scythe of Death, due to secrecy, the exact technical details are not yet known. I didn't receive the information until yesterday.
Today, it seems that the project that has consumed a lot of manpower, material and financial resources is worth it.
With artillery, they will have greater confidence.
However, the only drawback is the cost of this artillery, which is a bit difficult for them to accept, even if they have deep pockets. Of course, there are many subsequent improvement projects. But in the short term, it is difficult for prices to come down.
Three thousand gold coins for one door, you really have to offer it like an ancestor.
And also say that it is a consumable, and the rifling will produce wear and tear. And the maintenance of artillery and shells is a pressure on logistics. In short, Tekken II has almost nothing to praise except for its performance.
It seems that Tekken II is impossible to equip on a large scale, so it can be used as a blade.
The Reaper's Scythe will serve as a model project for the military and the Academy.
And Nolan didn't have to spend a lot of effort to keep the artillery secret, starting with the Iron Fist type. The technology represented by artillery is not something that can be achieved by mere imitation.
The bronze used in the Iron Fist Type 1, the ratio of copper to iron, and the caliber are all key.
This time, the iron fist cannon went further, even the diamond material on the drill bit is estimated to be very few people know, and the diamond is too small. The spacing of the rifling and the reinforcement technology of the gun body are not just to look at.
From the Iron Fist Type II, the war will turn into a one-sided slaughter.
The main project of the Reaper's Scythe is complete.
Wayne couldn't wait to start his next project, rifled guns. Codenamed Staff of Judgment.
The Staff of Judgment is an artifact used by God the Father in Church doctrine to guide souls into heaven.
It is estimated that Merris heard that a military project had been given this religious name, and did not know what to do.
This time, the technical goal was to replace flint with thundermercury.
Thundermercury is more resilient to bad weather than flint, and the chance of a dumb fire is greatly reduced.
Moreover, the fixed gunpowder can begin to be promoted, which will greatly increase the rate of fire.
All in all, there are many benefits.
Reynolds can clearly feel that there are many recent projects, and they span a lot.
This is how the cause of the last accident came about, and Wayne still has no intention of stopping.
It is said to be the pressure from the imperial capital.
Wayne's marriage to Audrey not only did not make Wayne feel easy, but it made Wayne nervous. Hurry up and compress what you need to do in years into a few months.
Reynolds didn't understand, but he could roughly guess it. This political turmoil is not small.
Evans handed over the construction schedule early, returned to Nolan to analyze the information sent back by Heath, and prepared for the next trip to the imperial capital.
As for Audrey, she also heard the news early, which also caught her off guard.
Although she also envies the brides who wear beautiful clothes and are held in the eyes of thousands of people, she also listens to the examples of princesses who are unhappy after getting married.
Of course, what is more scary is that this marriage is definitely not so simple.
The struggle between the eldest prince and the fourth prince has reached the point of tension, and her wedding will not be completed so simply and smoothly.
And the meaning of the wedding held by my father is also very obvious, supporting the eldest prince!
But will the fourth prince admit defeat, when he was a child, he and the eldest prince were the best people to win.
When the time comes, the sword light and blood shadow will be indispensable.
Aaron, who was a hundred kilometers away in Niel's territory, swaggered out of the lord's mansion in front of the guards in the night. Glancing at the three-story Lord's Mansion with white walls and red tiles, he suddenly felt that his father was a little naΓ―ve.
He really thought that this cage would trap him.
He is going to rush to the imperial capital now, and this time he will be in charge in person, and even attend his brother's wedding in person. I guess my father was surprised at that time.
In the papal state, a cardinal said goodbye to the pope and was on his way to the imperial capital. He will serve as the pastor for this wedding.
In the depths of the palace, the old man lying on the huge bed, with deep wisdom hidden in his eyes at this time, his breathing slowly approached a smooth level. He will reflect on the last part of his plan to see if there are any loopholes.
Although I am a little sorry for my youngest daughter Audrey, I can only sacrifice her for the sake of the Corleone family.
Even if you are reluctant, you may cut it off with a knife.
In a secret room in the palace, an ancient magic array flashed with intricate patterns. Look at the plastic surgery next to it, ten great magicians, three great magicians, even in the magic tower, it is a lineup that cannot be ignored.
An old man spoke.
"It's hard to imagine that a magic array that has existed for thousands of years can still function. And the effect has not degraded at all, you can imagine how prosperous magic was in ancient times. β
"Yes, it's a waste that a magic array that can transform life force is hidden here, instead of a magic tower with more magic power. β
"What's the solution, once the magic array is generated, it will be difficult to remove, and it is impossible for us to move this magic array. β
"If it weren't for agreeing to Olmedo's conditions this time, I'm afraid we would never have come into contact with this kind of magic array in our lives. β
"So this time I'm going to take a good look at it and draw the pattern for future study. β
The two archmages talked about Olmedo unscrupulously next to the chief magician of the court, the Sunan mage. Without the slightest reverence.
But Sunan didn't refute it, at this moment he needed their assistance to complete this extremely complicated magic array, so that he could win more chances for Olmedo.
"Two masters, I think we can start tomorrow. β
The two archmages carefully looked at the magic array glowing with fluorescent blue light.
After a long time, he spoke.
"Yes. β
