The difficulty in achieving this is that they can remain stable and reliable after withstanding the high temperatures and huge overloads of the firing process, which obviously requires trial and error - so the development progress is temporarily stuck at this step.

But what if you think the other way around and give up hot launch altogether?

The research institute has already made out the bomb-type shells, stuffed into the barrel is estimated to cause a large area of explosion or duds, but by the dragon to the air and thrown, suddenly turned into a qualified aerial bomb, in addition to the bomb load limited by the dragon's physical strength is not more than a hundred catties, magic creatures and science combined, they have a "bomber" available hundreds of years in advance!

In order to avoid the shelling, all the soldiers of the Golden Regiment hid along the embankment to form a long snake formation, and the two dragons only had to fly along this line and drop bombs, and it was difficult to blow them up. Iger didn't expect this hundred-pound bomb to just finish off the headquarters of the Golden Regiment, but the fact was: the large golden battle flags and thousands of figures that had already sprung up from behind the river embankment, ready to launch a general attack at any cost, froze in place under the series of shocks, and only moved again after a long time—but instead of rushing to the riverbank to sweep the land-giving army, they quietly retreated and disappeared from the view of the people on the north bank.

The Golden Regiment retreated.

They didn't lose unjustly.

It can be said that in addition to not personally going into battle to kill the enemy, Egger has already thrown out all the hole cards in his hand, and even the half-finished products have been taken out in advance and pasted on their faces. The land-giving army treated the Golden Regiment as a strange ghost, but the Golden Regiment was not as resistant to beating as a strange ghost at all.

The reason why Egger spared no effort to spare no effort was because the operation to drive away the Confederate army was not as easy as it seemed: they were not simply facing the Confederate army across the river, but at the same time maintaining the encirclement of King's Landing, facing the enemy on both sides.

With Stannis also eyeing the city and waiting for the situation to change, if too many troops and spirits are held back by the battle across the river, he will face the threat of the defenders of the city taking the initiative to counterattack. The so-called long night dreams are many, and they not only have to win this battle, but also win it cleanly and intimidating.

The Golden Regiment had fought against the wind, and was so well trained that even if they fled, they were swift and decisive without delay, and Iger could not even pursue: their own positions were strong when they were strong, but they had a great weakness that they could not improve in a short period of time - there were not enough cavalry, and by the time the whole army had crossed the Blackwater River and rested, the enemy was already miles away.

But there was another army waiting for them to the south, and the 10,000 Dorn spearmen remained motionless during the hour-long shelling, and only after most of the bend had withdrawn were they able to get out of the barracks, just in the way of the Golden Regiment, which had not retreated in a hurry.

Dragnet!

The desperate Golden Regiment desperately broke through, but fought until the black battle flag of the land-giving army came out from behind the butt and could not get out of the trap, if it weren't for the fact that the Hewan army in front of them didn't notice it and sent the Count of Tully and his son to lead the cavalry back to rescue, this strongest mercenary group that once dominated the east and west of the Narrow Sea was afraid that the entire army would be wiped out on the banks of the Blackwater River.

After a bloody battle in the dark, less than 3,000 soldiers of the Golden Regiment struggled to escape from their lives, but they could not muster the courage to turn back and fight again. In the absence of cavalry troops, their speed was not fast, but they still caught up with one after another riverbend troops escorting grain and grass and baggage, and after easily killing for more than ten miles, leaving behind corpses and fallen flags? The army of the Bend Lands who woke up like a dream came back to their senses? The order was given to abandon the baggage and retreat lightly.

It was getting dark, and in the face of the retreating enemy who was tightly grouped with up to 30,000 or 40,000 people, the queen's army did not blindly pursue it again. Returned to the besieged camp with a large number of supplies that the enemy had already "helped" in packing trucks? The dove occupies the magpie's nest and squeezes into the riverside camp that is still full of enemies in the morning? Begin to divide the spoils, hold celebrations, and even discuss the next move.

The battle between the Blackwaters, between gold and black, ended in a complete victory for the land-givers and the Queen's side, which not only drove out the couchside tigers from the siege of King's Landing, but also allowed the Queen's army to take over almost all of the Southerners' countless grains, grasses, baggage, and siege weapons. Supported by this astonishing abundance of supplies? The ensuing siege of King's Landing has completely lost its suspense: Egger plans to split the Dorne army into two? Half of it is deployed along the north bank of the Heishui River to prevent the enemy from the south from continuing to disturb? The other half joined the siege.

30,000 well-equipped elites of the sea, land and air? Besieging a big city with no more than 10,000 garrisons and easy to attack and difficult to defend, this battle can be said to be won horizontally and vertically? But against the backdrop of the chatter and laughter of the merry soldiers outside the tent, the atmosphere in the large conference room inside the Black-walled Fort was a little solemn and gloomy.

......

The queen brought not only two dragons from Rossby, but also a not-so-wonderful piece of bad news: one of the ships of the Dragonstone fleet had disappeared the night before while patrolling the waters southeast of Blackwater Bay, and it was not until the next day that the two of them had fled back to the port in a small boat. And even these two lucky people were cut out of their tongues, and their mouths were full of blood and speechless, and the commander of the harbor garrison asked for a long time before he could barely figure out the ins and outs of the matter: the missing ship was surrounded and trapped by a large number of strange ships and forcibly jumped to control it, and the two people who came back did not escape, but were put back by the opposite side.

Judging from the description, the mysterious fleet that suddenly appeared was none other than the Iron Fleet, which had been harassing the west coast of the North a few months ago. Euron Greyjoy unsuccessfully proposed to Daenerys, and suspected of "love and hate", led the entire fleet around most of Westeros and ran to the bay outside the Blackwater River to find her bad luck!

"What do they want?" said Robb Stark with questions, "the returning soldier has brought a letter or a message? ”

Discussing how to deal with the object of his allegiance made the young wolf lord a little awkward, but it is always better to be on the side of the winner than to be the loser.

"What do you want?" Egg shook his head, "Did he get anything by traveling thousands of miles north to attack Icefjord Harbor when ......the strange ghosts attacked?" Stannis didn't necessarily know about his arrival, and even if he did, he wouldn't necessarily make any deal with him. I already know a little about the strength of the Iron Fleet through some channels, but it is only about eighty or ninety sail warships, and three or four hundred longships of various types...... What I want to know now is, is the strength of His Majesty's fleet on Dragonstone Island capable of dealing with both the Iron Fleet and Stannis's Royal Fleet?"
