Power and Empire Chapter 105: Test shooting Thor
July is a delightful month. This is the harvest season. The sun is hot in the sky. On both sides of the broad commercial roads, waist-length golden wheat waves are swaying in the wind. Because the entire territory is strictly applicable to the "Farming Law", And adopting the principle of collecting more, the enthusiasm of farmers in the territory is thoroughly mobilized,
For their own interests, the farmers who were allocated the land strictly implemented the intensive farming required by the Samor military, and actively supported the local water conservancy construction. Farmers from all over the country were almost dispatched to assist the Samor army in digging in May. In the irrigation system centered on the Satsuma Kuri River, the water of the Satsuma Kuri River flows into the land along the river along the newly reclaimed irrigation canals, and feeds the fertile fields on both sides of the river like milk.
Many people who criticized the "Farming Law" in the past shut their mouths in July. Everyone can tell that the harvest this year is not so good. Not only is the number of heavy wheat ears larger than before. It’s a few times more, and each one is full and big. It is obviously a good harvest that is rare in a century.
With the 1 million gold coins delivered by the Kujites, there are several times more food than in previous years. In July, the Samor army expanded again. Sufficient financial resources and new weapons and equipment made the fat man decide to add another special group. ,
Thor Grenadiers, a planned number of 3000 people, equipped with 100 Thor cannons. Except for the 1,500 troops at the headquarters, the other three banner regiments are equipped with 500 people. The configuration requirements of this special regiment are issued to three flags as top secret. In the hands of the head,
For this new army, Fatty attaches great importance to it. He requested that 50 tenacious squad captains be transferred from each banner regiment to the headquarters of the corps to report, and then to train with the newly recruited artillery in the remote outskirts of the mountain col, although they had already been trained before the training. I instilled a lot of mental preparation, but there was still a lot of problems during the first test shot.
Thunder God Cannon is seen once, no one knows what the use of this kind of steel pipe with a bracket in it? Everyone looked at the row of steel pipes with brackets in front of them, but the veteran Sack who stood in the first row was particularly excited
"What is this? Is this my future weapon? Is such a heavy thing, like a heavy siege regiment, a heavy weapon used to smash people!"
Veteran Zack was a little excited, "Hehe, this time it is finally my turn to send a sum"
As a Samor veteran who has participated in more than two battles, Sack knows that there is one of the most mysterious heavy infantry regiments in the Samor’s army. It is composed of all elite falconry veterans, wearing the highest level of double-layer heavy. First, there is a siege cone that can dig through the knight’s heavy armor. Not only is the treatment the best, but the bounty is also the highest.
In the last battle of Sambuga Hills, it is said that every soldier of the siege regiment received a bounty of at least ten gold coins. This is unbelievable among other light infantry squadrons. It is a pity that this unit only uses Falcons. The soldiers in the territory recruited people, which made Sack very helpless,
I heard that this time the corps was going to gather veterans to join the new army. Happy Sack was the first to go to the squadron captain to sign up, but I didn’t expect that what he saw was not the case at all.
"Oh! What a broken thing! If this thing can be used to smash people, I have my head chopped off!"
Sack held a Thor Cannon in both hands, and wanted to pick up the Thor Cannon with a bit of brute force. After receiving the fruit, Thor only shook a few times, and Sark almost didn't dislocate his hands, and kicked the Thor Cannon in annoyance. Take a foot,
"Bump!" There was a dull metal sound, and the hard rebar hit Sack’s foot painful
"It's really bad luck this time. I knew I was playing with such broken things, I won't be here!"
The veteran Sack hugged his feet in pain, and muttered unwillingly. He suddenly found that the surroundings were calm and terrible. He looked up in surprise and almost didn't scare his soul away. The captain of the guard who was still on the stage just now explained that the drool was splashing. Salong, standing in front of him at this moment, the one-eyed braving one is staring at him,
"Captain Zack, you seem to be very dissatisfied with your weapon. Would you like me to show you how to use it?"
Saron’s dull voice scared the veteran Sack and his whole body shivered. Almost no one in the army of Samoa knew his signature one-eyed one,
"Saron-sama, you misunderstood, I was just fascinated by this new weapon, and I was too excited to control it for a while"
The unruly veterans are dissatisfied with others, but facing this veteran of the veterans, the legendary unstoppable hundred people cut, who dares to say nothing,
The murder king who killed hundreds of enemies was not shouting in vain. It is said that the prey stared at by that eye has not yet been able to breathe alive. That sturdy and incomparable murderous aura is to let the veteran over ten meters away. Let’s take a chill,
"Hehe, really, since you like it so much, then you will be the first Thor's shooter, let everyone see the power of your new weapon!"
Saronpi smiled and pointed at Zack without a smile. There was a trace of drama in that cold one eye, and said sharply
"Captain Zack is out, from now on, you have to follow the requirements of the test shooter, as the first shooter of our Samor for this test shoot!"
Actually, this test shot was given to Saran, and Saran was also not sure about this thing, especially the debugger sent by the research institute said that if this thing is improperly operated, it will cause the rebar cannon to explode. It is estimated that there is no life within a radius of ten meters. Hearing such terrible consequences, Hundreds of People Zhan Zalong felt cold.
"Don’t die in the same way! This is not a joke! With this clumsy body, it will be too late to hide and fear!"
Saron, who has always been fat as the standard, immediately decided to find a hapless person from the trainers to complete the task
Saron wondered in his heart that the recruits could not do this. The psychological quality and resilience were quite a lot. Although it is inevitable that people would die, Saron did not want to let inexperienced recruits go to death.
This matter must be done by the veterans who crawled out of the pile of dead people, bold and careful, and smart enough. At this time, the veteran Zack jumped out and dared to kick the Thor cannon in front of him. Saron is still wondering who to look for, surprised and happy
"Boy, if you don't do this, I will let you go, and adults will not let you go!"
Saron patted the sluggish Zack on the shoulder
"Don't worry, this thing is very safe, but sometimes it will explode, as long as you run ten meters away after the shell is put down!"
"Ten meters away! "Sark was startled by what Saron said, his face was ugly and pale." It is impossible for him to jump ten meters away even if he is a rabbit."
The military order is like a mountain. Sark looked at the murderous one-eyed Saron, knowing that if he disobeys, he would be executed immediately by Saron, so he had to face the pain and turn on the Thunder God Cannon according to the instructions of the debugger. Bracket,
Ten minutes later, a Thor cannon was quickly set up, and Sack squatted with a sad face, turning the crank in his hand with his right hand, and according to the requirements of the debugger, set the ruler on a small **** one kilometer away. , Turned his head and looked at other people more than 20 meters away from him, full of chagrin in his heart
"I knew so, how good I would be in the old squadron! At least don't worry about being dropped out by a bunch of recruits to be a dead man!"
Sack’s heart beats against his breath, his hands are sweating nervously, and the hands holding the cannonballs seem to be stiff.
"What are you doing! Load up quickly! If you don't want to die, let go and run!" Saron's urging voice sounded in Sack’s ears,
"Damn! Go out!" Suddenly, Zack, who was accustomed to accepting orders, subconsciously loosened his grip on the bullets. There was a crisp sound, and the sound of the cannonballs falling from the bottom of the bore almost stopped. The veteran Sack, who had run for one meter, almost fell to the ground in terror. It seems that the whole world collapsed at this moment, and his feet are running faster and faster
"Beng!" The crisp sound of a blast of air was like a loud muffled fart. Such a lacklustre performance completely exceeded everyone's expectations. Just now, the debugger made everyone hide 20 meters away. , Is it to hide such a thing?
"What's the matter? It's that simple?"
Veteran Zack has run five or six meters, and suddenly feels that the steel pipe behind him spouts a wave of air~IndoMTL.com~ and lie on the ground in terror. After waiting for a while, he realizes that there is nothing. Turning around in disbelief, looking at the unexploded barrel and shouting with excitement
"You can all see it, it's not that I broke it, it's that this thing really doesn't work, you have to testify for me!"
Seeing that there was no abnormality, everyone stood up with confidence. Suddenly, a recruit pointed at the sky and shouted, "Look, there is something in the sky!"
Everyone raised their heads in confusion, and saw a small black dot in the sky draw a curve, descending to the distant hillside
"It’s a cannonball!, Zack, how did you throw the cannonball into the sky?" The sharp-eyed Saron recognized the elliptical shape of the black spot and recognized the cannonball that the veteran Zack had just put into the barrel. His face opened in amazement, his mouth was open in surprise, and he was puzzled by how Sack threw the shells in the air without knowing it, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Littering munitions randomly is a felony for the army, don’t you know it!"
Sack himself was stupid. Hearing Saron’s questioning, his face was full of distress and crying without tears, and he said with a crying excuse
"Saron-sama, it's really not me, so high, even if I want to throw it, it must be thrown up!"
The black spot was under everyone’s attention, and it fell on a small hill a thousand meters away. After a few seconds, a huge explosion sounded, and the flames engulfed a large amount of mud and flew into the air, flying all over the sky. The mud, sand and stones fell like raindrops. Saraon trembled slightly while standing on the ground
The sound of the rumbling cannons scared the brave men like Salong on the ground and didn’t dare to move. Some recruits were so frightened that they could not stand up. Only a few dozen people, even The debugger himself saw the explosion for the first time, and his face was pale and limp on the ground
