Release that Witch Chapter 357: prototype goods


Agatha blocked ears early in the second firing.

Then she saw an incredible scene.

I didn't expect the long and charged work. The seemingly large metal tube showed completely inconsistent lightness. Every shot seemed to shake the ground, but the base was not moving, as if the two had nothing to do with it. general. The long tube retreats and resets quickly and accurately every time. This process does not even need to manually control only three of the four operators are busy. The commander known as Iron Axe just stands and gives orders.

Remove the metal stop, slide down the copper shell, insert a new crossbow, and fire again ... In this cycle, Agatha can feel the anger of this earth-shattering Thunder almost every ten breaths, and close-range The flat shot also allowed her to witness the snow pillars and the earth prince lifted up by two miles and the earth prince did not lie. This weapon indeed fired the crossbow, and it was too fast to capture it with the naked eye. Judging from the time of firing to the rise of the snow pillar, even Transcendent can absolutely not avoid its attack!

Agatha looked at this silver-white long tube weapon, and couldn't help but be a little foolish.

If ... if Taqila had such a powerful weapon at that time, maybe the terrible Devil would be blocked under the city walls, so as to prevent the city walls from falling into the quagmire of attrition after the destruction of the walls, I am afraid that the war will not become so bad.

"This is weapon made by witch?" After a while, she swallowed and asked in a low voice. Judging from its clean and bright appearance, this is by no means ordinary people can hit with both hands and hammer.

But the answer of the prince surprised her.

"A masterpiece of witch and mortals," he laughed, "stronghold guns are managed by witch from smelting to casting, and the firing shells are the credit of alchemist. By the way, in addition to Anna in the witch involved in manufacturing Besides, the rest are what you call support witch. "

Agatha suddenly felt a crack in the idea that had been formed for a long time. She thought she was tolerant enough to treat mortals, and was even excluded by Pioneer Society. But now it seems that I have not done enough?

Is Federation wrong from start to finish? Is the prince right ... mortals can defeat Devil.

But if the collaboration between witch and mortals can burst into such a powerful force, why did the first War of Divine Will still end in a fiasco?

Questions kept emerging in her mind, and Agatha felt extremely confused.

...

When the stronghold guns continuously sprayed flames, Tilly also felt a strong shock.

Although she has witnessed the scene of cannon bombing Evil Beast on the city wall, the shortcomings of those firearms are also obvious that it is difficult to hit from a long distance, and it is impossible to attack downwards. Only at middle distance can it exert its best power. However, the reloading speed is slow. When dealing with the agile Evil Beast Hybrid(s), it is likely that the enemy has already reached the foot of the city wall before firing.

In addition, in order to quickly charge and fire, a gun group needs five to ten people to operate. As long as there is a problem in one link, it will affect the operation of weapon. In addition, someone needs to look after the source of ignition during the ignition. When the heavy rain comes, the field guns may not be able to play any role.

But the stronghold gun newly developed by Roland has no more disadvantages.

The charge from the rear can make the muzzle lower than the tail, the range of close-range shooting is greatly increased, the rate of fire has doubled several times, and the personnel has been reduced to three. At the same time, no open fire is required, which means that severe weather can also be combated, and the attack range of far superior to the trebuchet is fully worthy of the landmark weapon in Roland.

Although it currently requires the ability of witch to produce, Tilly believes that this is only a temporary condition. The observation of Silvie can be used as proof: the burst weapon that was once only equipped with Chief Knight is now distributed to the hands of every soldier. Anna only needs to make A batch of equipment specially produced for this weapon, the specific casting and assembly can be completed by the workers themselves.

Seeing the expressions of Ash and Andrea, stronghold cannon is also an unimaginable thing for them.

It's a good thing to have such an ally, but it feels even more distant as an older brother.

She even felt that the other party was far ahead of her.

This feeling makes Tilly slightly lost.

If only he could be more honest.

...

Roland Seeing the shells that were hard to come up was consumed in a blink of an eye, and the pain in my heart was not good. Even so, he still had to pretend to be inscrutable to hide his perseverance.

This is not a true test shot of the new cannon.

In order to achieve the demonstration effect of flowing clouds, he asked Iron Axe to bring in a team of elite artillery from Artillery Battalion, and began a simulated firing practice a few days in advance. During this period, he also conducted two live ammunition firings. This time it was just a show of power for witch.

The shooting process was smooth and the results were ideal. At least from the shocked expression of Agatha, we can see that the performance of cannon exceeded her imagination.

But for Roland, the actual firing effect of this stronghold gun is far from satisfactory.

Except for the sacred calibre of 152 millimeters, it is far from 152 in reality. With the precision processing capability of Anna, coupled with the purification of elements of Lucia, and finally the metal detection link is supplemented by Silvie, in theory he can produce a true modern mature cannon, instead of an imitation with a range of only 7-8 kilometers .

The key is detail.

At present, its pharmacy is too small.

Considering the weight of the fixed ammunition, the Roland deliberately reduced the volume of the drug chamber, resulting in insufficient ammunition loading. Although it has a forty-fold slender tube, the range is still not ideal.

The other thing is propellant.

Because Nitroglycerin is still in trial matching, all the shells are filled with Nitrocellulose, which is also the cause of Roland's distress. The consumption of several shells by Nitrocellulose is enough to fill thousands of rounds. In addition, these smokeless propellant have not been gelled, which is equivalent to further reducing the charge.

The final shell itself is still an enlarged version of the bullet. The warhead is not charged, and its lethality depends on kinetic energy. Missing the target means zero damage. At this stage, it can only be used to attack some slow-moving enemies.

In short, there is still a long way to go to achieve barrage coverage and cannon scrubbing.

However, Roland felt that time might not be as plentiful as he originally expected.

Since he learned that the magic stone transformation actually originated from Devil, the warning sound in his mind has become stronger and stronger.

If Devil also has its own technology, will the phenomenon of rapid technological advancement also occur in a certain period? .
