Chapter 142: Orange, Boom
"Oh, senior sister, pick this up and take a look."
Tangerine took the monocular in Huo Yuhao's hand, which looked slightly larger than similar products, and put it in front of him suspiciously.
"Nothing special?"
The lenses of telescopes don't seem to be anything special, and the image quality is not stronger than that of ordinary telescopes.
"Press your finger on the metal strip next to it, inject soul power and take a look."
"Oh?"
As Huo Yuhao said, Tangerine injected a little soul power into the telescope, and aimed the center of the lens at the teaching building in the distance.
A small glowing point of light appeared in the center of the orange's field of vision, and a few seconds later, a small line of words "880 meters" appeared in the lower right corner of the eyepiece.
"It's ...... Distance? Tangerine looked surprised.
"A soul power ranging module has been added to the telescope, so the volume and weight have increased slightly." Huo Yuhao nodded.
When he was a guest at the Binhai Soul Master Academy before, Huo Yuhao had paid attention to their soul guide sonar equipment - although the sonar and laser ranging device sounded like the products of a century apart, in essence, their principles were similar, and they both relied on calculating the time difference to indirectly determine the distance.
The Binhai Soul Master Academy relied on this thing to draw a hydrogeological map of the seabed, and Huo Yuhao had been thinking about it at that time.
The Marina Soul Master Academy's Soul Guide Sonar will store all the information collected locally, and only after it is salvaged can it be relied on to calculate and draw hydrogeological maps, so there is no need for such trouble on the rangefinder telescope.
Huo Yuhao relied on his demonically modified soul guide array to realize the mapping of "soul power reflection time - distance", and displayed the ranging results on the eyepiece in real time.
Although the soul guide array can partially take shortcuts and rely on the simplest data mapping to achieve ranging needs, for Huo Yuhao, who is accustomed to electronic equipment, it is an evil path in the final analysis: the computing efficiency of the soul guide array is completely incomparable with the computer he is familiar with, and the potential for improvement is relatively limited, but Huo Yuhao does not have the ability to rub the CPU by hand, and at present, he can only use the principle of simplicity.
Limited by the performance of the soul guide array itself and the subtle fluctuations in the transmission speed of soul power, the accuracy of the rangefinder telescope can only be ten meters, with a delay of about five seconds, which is barely enough.
After a slight "um", Tangerine said a little unsatisfactorily: "It seems that this thing can measure distance...... It's useful on the battlefield, but ......"
Huo Yuhao smiled: "But it doesn't seem to be particularly useful, it's very direct, right?" β
"That's what it means."
"That's because a single technical weapon can only play its greatest role if it has the cooperation of the overall system."
As he spoke, Huo Yuhao touched the storage ring in his hand, and a cannon barrel appeared in his hand, and Huo Yuhao immediately put it on the ground.
"Senior sister, this thing is called a grenadier, and it's a light mortar...... Oh, this is the product of my research with Mr. Xuan before the competition, and it was not used because of the rules of the competition. It's out of secrecy, but don't talk nonsense. β
Tangerine looked at the grenadier that Huo Yuhao placed on the ground and asked, "So small?" β
"It's just that the caliber is relatively small, and it's not difficult to make it big, the key is the whole system involved behind it."
Huo Yuhao squatted down, pointed to the arc-shaped scale mark at the bottom of the gun carriage and said, "Look, the angle on the scale line is used with this manual, is it much more convenient and accurate to aim?" β
Tangerine took the manual handed over by Huo Yuhao, opened it and looked at it carefully, and read: "Try to make a manual for the Type I soul guide mortar, and shoot the Yuan chapter." β
"Standard weight, charge level 3 fixed soul guide shell, huh...... At a range of 500 meters, the rules for adjusting the pitch and lateral positions are as follows......"
As a representative of long-range offensive attack guides, custom soul guide shells and soul guide ray guns occupy an important position in the Sun and Moon Empire's soul master group.
To be precise, the Soul Guide Shell needs to be combined with the vehicle that fires it to be considered a true long-range Soul Guide, otherwise it can only be regarded as a powerful time bomb.
After Huo Yuhao got permission to learn about the active equipment of the Sun Moon Empire's soul master group, he was surprised to find that their understanding of the use of custom-mounted soul guide shells was still at a very primitive level.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is quite in line with the description in the original book, according to Huo Hang's original words:
"When the fixed-mounted soul guide shell is launched, it generally relies on the jet of its own tail to achieve a long-distance explosion. Among them, the push device and the power device should be distinguished, separated by high-strength rare metals. The more powerful the Soul Guide Projectile, the more precious the rare metals that need to be used to isolate it. β
"Tail spraying" makes the fixed soul guide cannonball seem to be a long-range weapon powered by the engine itself like a rocket, but its performance is far from Huo Yuhao's impression of rockets with a range of tens or hundreds of kilometers, and even ordinary artillery is far from comparable.
Huo Hang single-handedly detonated the arsenal under the Mingdu and caused the explosion of the "Sun and Moon Destruction Day" Mingdu, the Sun and Moon Empire used three ninth-level customized soul guide shells to blow up the Mingdou Mountain Range to open the way for the soul master group, and Shrek Academy used Zhuge Repeater ballista with custom soul guide shells to resist the beast tide.
In the explosion of Mingdu, the fixed soul guide shells piled up in the warehouse were only detonated in place and used as oversized bombs, without reflecting the role of "cannonballs".
In the process of blowing up the Mingdou Mountain Range, the ninth-level fixed-mounted soul guide cannonball was directly detonated after being dropped into the Mingdou Mountain Range, which was no different from the coal boss using explosives to open a mine, and it also only played the role of super-large TNT.
The only one that embodies the role of the fixed soul guide cannonball as a standard weapon for the large-scale deployment of the soul master group is only the time when Shrek resisted the beast tide, and the problem of the fixed soul guide cannonball is most obvious in the Zhuge Repeater ballista that was used by the Tang Sect to earn the first pot of gold and fortune.
As a cross-era product of "fully combining the soul guide technology with the Tang Sect machine", the Zhuge Repeater Ballista represents the most advanced armament, and it is a peerless weapon that can cause the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Star Luo Empire to compete for it, so that the Tang Sect can earn a lot of money with this weapon alone, and can even suppress and break through the defense of the high-energy compression array soul guide.
The parameter performance of such a super weapon undoubtedly far surpasses the single-standard custom-mounted soul guide projectile that was installed on a large scale in the Sun and Moon Empire, integrating power plant and anti-personnel warhead.
So, the parameters of the Zhuge God Ballista are......
"The most ordinary Zhuge God ballista has a range of only one kilometer, and it can fire fixed-mounted soul guide shells including the third level and below the third level."
"The intermediate-level Zhuge Shooting Balista can fire fixed-mounted soul guide shells below level five, and the range can also reach three kilometers. And when it comes to the high-level Zhuge Shooting Ballista, it can fire a fixed soul guide cannonball below level 7 and including level 7. β
(This is the first time that the parameters have been clarified, and there is also a four-level fixed soul guide cannon, without the Zhuge God ballista, with a range of two kilometers, five kilometers at the fifth level, and eight kilometers at the sixth level when fired naked...... οΌ
(And then in the later stage, in order to highlight the Niu Pi of the design of the Huo Hang delayed fuse, there is also the saying that the Zhuge God Ballista itself can boost the two-kilometer range of the fixed soul guide cannonball, and the first "Intermediate Zhuge God Ballista" has a range of three kilometers here)
The Sun and Moon Empire generally installed the Soul Master Group's fixed soul guide cannon level, which is level five, in other words, the Sun and Moon Empire's most relied on Soul Master Group, when used as artillery, the effective killing distance is generally not more than three kilometers.
Three kilometers ...... Huo Yuhao is familiar with the period when the range of the army's main field artillery is only three kilometers, probably in the mid-19th century, the period from the Napoleonic War to the Franco-Prussian War, and the range of the army's main artillery has generally exceeded eight kilometers.
The limit line of sight for a normal person to see the horizon on the plain is nearly five kilometers...... The three-kilometer killing radius of the soul master group is really a false line-of-sight strike, and the aiming means are generally based on feel and experience - three kilometers only, the killing range of the soul guide shell is large enough, and the blind attack of the more experienced soul master is not far away, which is also the reason why the Sun and Moon Empire does not pay much attention to the development of precision aiming technology.
But it is far from meeting Huo Yuhao's needs and expectations, and he didn't expect the custom-installed soul guide shells to be used as missiles, but at least they must be able to carry out over-the-horizon strikes under the guidance of relevant parameters, right?
But don't be like when Shrek Academy used the Zhuge God Ballista to defend the city, and the soul beasts rushed to the front before entering the shooting realm and firing to the death, the fun was too great.
When the Star Dou Great Forest Beast Tide still successfully approached the city after withstanding a round of soul guide cannonballas from the Zhuge God Ballista, the officers and soldiers of the city followed the city defense officer and roared, "Shrek, long live!" Banzai! Banzai! "Shrek, brilliant! Splendor! Splendor! "Fight for the glory of Shrek!" This kind of embarrassing thing, Huo Yuhao doesn't want it to happen to him in the future.
Huo Yuhao is a half-baked keyboard military enthusiast, and he didn't think about making any 155mm howitzers all at once, starting with the most compact light mortar, at least he knew that the key to firing this thing was the ...... at the bottom
A thimble.
It was originally intended to be used to fire its charge by pushing into the bottom of the shell.
When it was his turn to develop, Huo Yuhao also found that it was not for nothing that the Sun and Moon Empire was going farther and farther on the path of the soul guide, and the mortars and shells that he changed by magic replaced the original gunpowder charge with universal soul power, and the effect was not bad, relying on the soul power transmitted by the thimble to fire, and the feeling of taking a shortcut was really comfortable.
Standardized artillery projectile launchers (artillery), high-lethal artillery shells, flexible and timely ranging means, and detailed operation manuals summarized after thorough experiments are the most basic elements for maintaining an artillery establishment with acceptable combat effectiveness in Huo Yuhao's understanding. The Sun and Moon Empire has people who can do better than him in the improvement of cannonballs and vehicles, and Huo Yuhao's temporary strength is not the development of top-notch decisive battle weapons, compiling manuals with clear ideas and guiding subsequent development This kind of thing involving underlying thinking is what he is currently best at and can best prove his worth.
As for the Zhuge God ballista...... Huo Yuhao can understand that it is probably someone who got inspiration from rocket artillery, but the range of three kilometers is really a bit nondescript, and it is most likely the result of making up because he has no understanding of the data.
The image of the Zhuge God Ballista is about a flatbed cart with an area of ten square meters, and a metal box with a length of two meters and five and a width of one meter and a half is carried through a cylinder with eighteen cannon muzzles.
And the number of muzzles of the Zhuge God ballista is also between eighteen and sixteen repeatedly, and the one that Huo Hang demonstrated for a long time is eighteen muzzles, with forty-eight magazines and ammunition, which is not a number of mortal obsessive-compulsive disorder that is not an integer multiple of the muzzle.
"Senior sister, according to the booklet I compiled after many rounds of experiments, the secret position is strictly adjusted, and the distance and direction measured by the soul master flying into the air during the start of the war have fundamentally improved the soul master's cannonball hit rate. The most important thing is to wait for the development of longer-range artillery in the future, and rely on this system to achieve ultra-long-range strikes. Think about it, the enemy was smashed down by a cannonball before he even met our army, can this morale still be seen? β
Tangerine frowned: "It's so complicated...... It's a hassle to learn, right? β
"The only trouble is the compilation of manuals, and when you are fighting, you can just adjust the secret position according to the ranging results, and you don't need to move your brain. It stands to reason that the wind direction will also cause some disturbance to the trajectory of the shell, but I am limited in my ability and do not want to solve it for the time being. β
When Huo Yuhao was enthusiastically compiling the manual, he thought that this thing was very easy, and he could quickly make a prototype by relying on the formulas accumulated in his previous life, but later he found that there were always some deviations between the experimental results and his expectations, which were not too big but obviously existed, and may not be very acceptable on the battlefield, and his thinking went around a dead end for a long time before he came out:
When calculating the time from the disembowel to the landing of the shell, Huo Yuhao used the most idealized calculation method without considering other factors, directly dividing the vertical velocity of the cannonball when it was ejected by the gravitational acceleration and multiplying it by two.
Later, Huo Yuhao thought: This is the hydrogen continent where Tang Wulin can walk 10 million meters and walk through most of the continents, although the actual situation is not so outrageous, but the value of gravitational acceleration may not be his subconscious approximation of 9.8, and some physical constants cannot be directly copied......
After tossing for a long time to determine the relevant parameters, it was barely enough to compile this set of manuals, Xuan Ziwen immediately reported to the military, and the soul master group who was quite interested in the new gadget sent its own high-level soul master to accept the follow-up derivative development work, Huo Yuhao's biggest contribution was to tell them "what to do", and the experiments of other calibers and charges can be drawn according to the gourd.
"Alas...... I'll study it again, my Sun and Moon Empire has always used power to suppress people in wars, and if there are not enough shells, just a few more rounds, is it necessary to be so precise......"
"Let's learn, in case you use it. If we encounter a situation where we are outnumbered, we must save some ammunition, and with such a means of striking accurately from a distance beyond visual range, we can fire a few cannons into the crowd as soon as the battle begins, and we can delay more time before we can get the main force to come to our aid. β
In the original book, if Huo Hang and Wang Dong happened to pass by and relieve the siege of Tangerine, the emperor and queen of war almost overturned the rebellion, and died directly before they could get out of the division. Huo Yuhao showed her the research and development results of the mortar, and also had the intention of insuring her future.
It is inevitable that Tangerine wants to climb up, join the army and work hard to make military achievements, and Huo Yuhao has long forgotten the cause, time, and place of the rebellion in the original book.
It's good to shoot accurately, save more ammunition, Brother Huo may not have that time to cover you, the familiar emperor and queen god of war in the original book is easy to handle, if you die in battle, what if Xu Tianran changes to a more powerful princess with less affection in her mind, so I can't fight her?
Tangerine put away the manual stupidly, after all, this is a product jointly developed by Huo Yuhao and Teacher Xuan, it must be a bit commendable, and Xu Tianran also hopes that she will make more friends with Huo Yuhao, there is no need not to give Huo Yuhao face in this little matter.
Judging from this incident, this kid seems to be a little interested in military-related applications, and maybe there will be many opportunities for cooperation and even solicitation in the future......
Huo Yuhao is thinking about letting Teacher Xuan take him to the soul master group to see how the follow-up improvement is in a few days, although the parameters of the Zhuge God ballista are outrageous, but for people like Huo Yuhao, who have been immersed in the thoughts of the Continental Army for a long time, it is inevitable that they will be stained with a little artilleryism, how many men can refuse to become a formed artillery division that uses rocket artillery to wash the ground with ten thousand cannons?
As long as the high-level soul mentors on the side of the soul master group improve fast enough, maybe they can get a few "Huo Yuhao Pipe Organs" in the future.
During the Battle of BΓΆrlind, Commander-in-Chief Zhu used about 1,500 Katyusha salvos to attack the city, and if there is a chance in the future, Xiao Huo Xue will bombard Xingluo City with one hand, right?
It was a wall 100 meters high and 100 meters thick, and I hope that the trajectory of the rocket will fly through......
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Teacher Yu, this is the ...... of Shrek's group of students Volunteer? β
In the teacher's office, Huo Yuhao flipped through a list and asked without raising his head.
"Yes, and next time, don't mess with the things on my desk, really think the academy is your own home?"
"I'm sorry, I'll go back and talk to the hall master."
Yu Yu was stunned for a moment, and then scolded with a smile: "Fortunately, you didn't go to the court, otherwise you would have to be a big minister, maybe you can also be a palm print or a pen eunuch." β
Huo Yuhao also smiled, and his eyes swept twice on the list in front of him.
"Shrek sent eight people from the inner courtyard and four people from the outer courtyard, and the captain is called ...... Night Dawn? It's still a sixth-level soul master, which is rare. β
Huo Yuhao can't remember the performance in the original book a little clearly, it seems that he originally wanted to be the boss of Shrek's team of only eleven people, but he was slapped in the face with Caitou and Huo Hang in the physical test and later communication life?
This list of Shrek trainees' volunteers is also attached to their personal physical examination results, and Huo Yuhao watched it with relish.
"And Caitou, the bone age is fifteen years old, and the height is one meter nine, ah this ......"
Seeing that Huo Yuhao's face finally changed slightly, a slight smile appeared on the corner of Yu Yu's mouth: "How about it, when Lin Jiayi gave them a physical examination two days ago, he also praised this kid for being a human-type soul beast, and his physical strength is far beyond the normal level, this evaluation is really not wrong." β
Huo Yuhao nodded, knowing that Yu Yu's judgment was fine, in the original book, he and Caitou were more than two meters tall when they came to communicate at the age of seventeen.
However, Huo Hang is not far behind, when he was fourteen years old, he was as high as one meter eight when he had a physical examination, Huo Yuhao was quite sure that his body would never grow so tall at the age of fourteen, he was quite satisfied with this, even if it was an adult man, one meter eight was enough, so why was he in a hurry to grow taller, just be higher than the average......
Of course, it's not just that Huo Yuhao and He Caitou's heights have grown a little too fast in the eyes of normal people, but even more outrageous ones are still to come - at the age of seventeen, Huo Hang's "figure has become taller, but it is not particularly strong, but the kind of well-proportioned body full of vigor and vitality at a glance." With a height of 1.9 meters, he is in the upper middle range among his peers."
1.9 meters tall...... Seventeen-year-olds are in the upper middle of the range......
Huo Yuhao felt that when he wrote the manual for the mortar, the gravitational acceleration was slightly smaller than the 9.8 in his impression, and it finally made sense, people who live in places with low gravitational acceleration are naturally easy to grow taller, and many science fiction have new humans growing in space with taller statures.
"Oh, this Wa Natou now has the level of a fifth-level soul master?"
Hearing Huo Yuhao's question, Yu Yu took a sip of tea and nodded: "Although their leading teacher said that this Hecaitou is not far from the sixth-level soul master, but according to the results of the academy's level test...... It was a little reluctant to be rated as a fifth-level soul master, but he still gave it to him, and this kind of trivial matter would not lose Shrek's face. β
"Okay, but the level of their soul masters in the other three people in the outer courtyard is miserable, oh, there is also a bastard in the inner courtyard."
"Everyone has their own tasks, and when they come, they are guests, so don't say such things in front of them."
"Okay, I'll try. Ling Luochen's volunteer is to defend the soul guide, this Ning Tian's volunteer...... Quite a lot of categories? Xiao Xiao has no special desire to learn. Babe ...... Do you want to get in touch with more literature to improve your understanding of soul guides, but you are not interested in improving your soul guide level? β
Yu Yu explained: "After all, he is the descendant of the Lord of the Seagod Pavilion, this is right, anyway, he doesn't eat the bowl of rice of the soul master, it is better to watch more miscellaneous things." β
Huo Yuhao smiled, and then said in a somewhat strange tone: "He Caitou and Ye Xiaosheng, these real soul masters...... All of them are filled in with the soul guide technique that they want to learn the most difficult, and it is best to arrange different types for them? β
"It's quite a tacit understanding, isn't it?"
"Is this the most difficult technique to learn, or the most valuable one? Is it their own meaning, or is it the meaning of Shrek Academy? Huo Yuhao's face looked a little gloomy and sympathetic to Yu.
"Oh, you just have to know it yourself, you don't have to say it. To a certain extent, students and the academy also serve each other and achieve each other, and the group of students we went to Shrek also arranged it like this, where did you kid get so malicious towards Shrek? β
Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes and stopped talking, Yu Yu put down the thermos teacup, and after breathing a sigh of relief, he saw that Huo Yuhao seemed to have made enough noise, so he asked:
"By the way, isn't it said that the cultivation speed of the Extreme Martial Soul will drop significantly after level 30? Why do I feel like you kid doesn't seem to have much of an impact? β
Push the calamitous and filthy reincarnated "Douluo: The Iron-blooded Sun and Moon of the Peerless Tang Gate".
Yumeng's resurrection book has been updated to the place where it was broken before. The protagonist of the Sun and Moon Empire stands, abuses the Tang Gate to destroy Shrek, and Wang Donger and Tang San stage a father-daughter filial piety~
