Chapter 630 The Art of Guns!

Faletis Imperial Family Colony, Thomastown.

The Church of Glory.

Although the name of this church sounds grand, it is a very small church. It is the first church belonging to “Goddess of Kingship and Navigation” established by the first pioneer believers who landed in Thomastown.

The Hall Master, which combines the “Dark Millennium” style with the Gothic style, is rectangular in shape, with a 10-meter-long spire less than 20 meters at its highest point.

With its sloping roofs, small windows and gables covered with seaside shells, if it weren’t for the shape of its church, it was almost indistinguishable from ordinary dwellings.

In the evening, a red cloud gradually appeared on the horizon.

A silver-haired old man wearing a simple black robe with a spirit of spirit, is sitting on a stone at the entrance of the church with a small rattan basket, smilingly looking at the seven, The eight little children danced and sang happily after getting their own cookies.

The child full of innocence sings the hymn of Goddess, praising his gifts without the slightest impurity.

Suddenly.

“Ah!”

One of them, a little girl of five or six years old, accidentally dropped her cookie on the ground. After screaming, the circles of his eyes immediately turned red, and the crystal tears had begun to spin in his eyes.

The old man didn’t blame her, but bent down and picked up the biscuits that fell on the ground and blew them in his mouth, comforting the little girl gently:

“It’s okay, The food falls on the ground and you can pick it up within three seconds and you can eat it. Come on, Liz, grandfather will give you a bigger piece.”

The little girl immediately burst into laughter and took it from the basket Another cookie he took out, thanking him sweetly:

“Thank you, Ralph grandfather!”

A group of children played here for a while, until it got dark , and then thanked the old man again and left together.

At this time.

laughed and watched the old man leave, but instead of returning to the church, he slowly turned around and looked towards his back.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

There, a group of “Iron Wall Knights” dressed in heavy armor like humanoid armored vehicles walked slowly from the other side of the church, and they had already stopped to salute across the distance.

“Your Excellency Ralph, Goddess is with you.”

The old man simply returned a salute and waved to them. Even with the third rank Great Knight in the lead, his attitude is no different from that of the children just now:

“Children, you can stay here for the first time. You don’t have to tell me what you want to do, Ralph is just an old fogey now retired, waiting to return to Goddess.”

dong! He made a muffled sound and bowed his head respectfully:

“Yes, we will not disturb your peace for too long. No matter whether this task can be completed or not, there will be a result in three months to half a year. .”

Georgia Collar.

On the east side of the Cumberland mountain range, the Vulcan Metals field range.

“The 200-meter target!”

Alwin’s commander Jonson in the new extraordinary force [The Gunners], holds a brand-new peculiar rifle with attached The sights were not used, and the trigger was pulled at will.

Bang——

A line of fire flew out, and a small hole appeared in the center of the target paper.

[Gunner] can obtain the core abilities [Gun Sense] and [Vital Insight] in the First Rank, and the keen senses can penetrate the enemy’s key points and give a fatal blow.

Precision shooting is just a piece of cake.

It was normal to get here, but what happened next made Anthony and Dilis, who were on the sidelines, gradually turn from shock to numbness.

“300 meters, 10 rings.”

“500 meters, 10 rings.”

“.”

“900 meters .10 ring!”

Jonson, who was wearing a military uniform, completed the shooting demonstration at a speed of 20 seconds, put away the new rifle assigned to him, walked to the side of Alwin, stood at attention and saluted:

“Report sir, the task is completed, please instruct.”

“Very good, let’s go back to the team.”

Alwin turned his head and looked towards a little dumbfounded. Anthony and Dilis, who were in the middle of the night, asked with a smile:

“You two, how about the Georgia rifles we produce?”

After hearing Alwin’s words, the two talents gradually came back to his senses.

“I’ve known for a long time that you are an indisputable genius! Mass production of sniper rifles is unbelievable.”

Anthony’s face was a little complicated, five years When he met Alwin for the first time, he was only the threshold for a first-time apprentice, but now he is not just in name only, but also in reality, a high-ranking wizard, a marquis, and even a fourth rank superhuman who is “chasing retribution”. He was beheaded by him in the battle”.

There are endless weapons of war that he has continuously invented over the years, which obviously will profoundly change the way of fighting in the future.

before.

Anthony, who came from a big noble family, knew very well that if he met Alwin with an attitude of alienation and respect, he was really alienated from him. Take a normal attitude to deal with it, and the effect of grasping the proportions will be better.

But after witnessing the inexhaustible wisdom of the other party once again, I couldn’t help but change it into honorifics again. Slaughtering the city and destroying the country and beheading the fourth rank are too far away from him, and only what he has seen with his own eyes is truly relevant to his own interests.

“Hahaha, the cost of the Georgia musket is actually not low.”

Under the guidance of Alwin, the arsenal successfully developed the first gun that belongs to “Vulkan Metal Company” excellent rifle. According to the naming rules of Kentucky, since it was born in Georgia, Alwin named it “Georgia Rifle”.

The revolutionary use of the fire hat to stimulate, eliminates the flint with an excitation rate of only about 70%.

Mercury fulminate (Hg(CNO)2), the firing charge, is the main component of the flash cap and detonator. It has high sensitivity to flame, acupuncture and impact, and is also essential for breaking rocks. help.

This “Georgia rifle” is the first real sniper rifle in the mundane world. Its design has gone beyond the scope of the original Kentucky rifle and other high-precision rifles. It is specially designed to accurately hit long-distance targets. The pinnacle of design.

The most special point is that although this rifle is a rifled gun, there is no conventional rifling inside the barrel, but a peculiar hexagonal chamber.

Considering the ease of processing and precision, the hexagonal-bore firearm can achieve a good balance in all aspects.

It’s just that this rifle is still a breech-loading single-shot rifle, with a full gun length of 1200 mm, a barrel of 840 mm, using .45 hexagonal cartridges, a rate of fire of 2–3 rounds, and effective The range is 730 to 910 meters, and the maximum range is 1200 meters.

It’s very close to the effective range of an alchemical musket.

And the Kenta Base bore guns used by dive archers in this era have an effective range of only about 300 meters in trifling.

And after making a reliable flash cap, Alwin is only one step away from being a copper-cased cartridge in the modern sense. As long as the problem of the airtightness of the locking structure of the rear-facing gun can be solved, a modern rifle in the true sense is already beckoning to him.

However.

Even if all the technical problems can be solved, Alwin is not ready to build this thing for the battlefield, at least not before “Truth Concrete”.

Because this stuff is like a steam engine that has profoundly changed this world, no, it’s more powerful than the steam engine’s formidable power.

It is enough to completely overturn the ruling order of the continent’s countries, sweeping more than 99% of Second Rank transcenders into the garbage heap of history, even the third rank Great Knight can no longer look down on the army. , as ordinary soldiers are like mustards.

Even, it doesn’t take too much, as long as it is blocked by hundreds of soldiers to focus the fire, you have to kneel.

It’s not just a question of ignorance, simply a foul.

This kind of thing that is the enemy of the entire world, as long as the brain is normal and will not do it, even the “kingdom and seafaring Goddess” that regards itself as a saint will be the first to be slapped and taken. own fate.

Because its meaning is similar to handing over a knife to the bourgeoisie.

Alwin has even made use of the existing technology to make two custom-made paper cases using large-caliber black powder Shot revolver. But this thing is just a toy to him now.

Additionally.

Since this kind of rifle can be produced, of course, the low-end commercial rifle after the simple configuration can be completely self-sufficient.

“Vulkan’s weapons and equipment are not so simple, the following is the real finale.”

Alwin gestured.

The tarpaulin on the other side was suddenly pulled open by the soldiers, revealing a peculiarly shaped multi-track artillery.

It does not have a gun barrel in the conventional sense, but has a total of 8 launch rails, which are mounted up and down with 16 132 mm caliber conical projectiles with stabilized wings.

“Is this some kind of artillery?”

As the official wizard of “Alchemy Tools and Enchanting Engineering”, Anthony is also most interested in this new type of weapon, but here There is no trace of alchemy processing on it.

After Alwin simplified the alchemy formula of the high-energy explosive “Black Sorkin”, even the apprentice can prepare it in large quantities when he is prepared, so Alwin has a lot of stock in his hand.

This time.

Looking for a way to use the easiest way, the fastest way, to pour the most equivalent amount of Hexokin over the target’s head, it entered Alwin’s schedule.

As a result, the simple structure and low cost, the so-called “rocket launcher”, which is known as firepower to the countryside for poverty alleviation through science and technology, naturally entered his line of sight.

“Target 8 kilometers up ahead, target site 1, launch!”

Alwin waved his hand vigorously.

The artillerymen were ordered to fire the rocket launchers.

In an instant, the orange red flames joined together, almost re-illuminating the fading sky in the evening, and the rockets shot up like lances thrown by the god of fire.

xiu! xiu! xiu!

A minute and a half later.

Boom—! ! !

Accompanied by successive terrifying loud noises, heavy smoke and dust shot straight into the sky, and a hill in the distance was scattered ashes and dispersed smoke in a monstrous flame.

Even Alwin and the others could feel a strong vibration under their feet.

The initial velocity of the rocket is 80m/s, the weight of the bomb is 42.5kg, the maximum range is 8.5km, and a salvo only takes 7-10 seconds. This is not just in name only, but also in reality. land. It can also be said to be [Pai Daxing’s ultimate curtain call 2.0], but Alwin renamed it [Black Sorkin’s Justice Iron Fist]!

Walking up to two people who have gone from numb to sluggish, Alwin’s voice calm and composed:

“In the future battlefield, we must vent steel and fire, not soldiers .

We’re going to leave countless craters in the enemy’s position, the kind of density that people can jump from crater to crater, and I’m serious about that.

In other words, it can also be called ‘supersaturation bombing’, which is a great art of changing geography with artillery fire!

Sufficient logistical support and firepower coverage that does not talk about martial arts, without saying anything One word, blow me up! This is my ninja.cough cough, tactical concept!”

In fact, when the war really developed to this step, it has completely lost the artistry of the past thousands of years, and it has fallen into decline. To the frontal confrontation of the comprehensive national strength between the two countries.

In the era when a cannon is worth a thousand taels of gold, war is really about money.
