We are in Terra and there is no book to read.

He climbed up, which made Shining a little confused, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

"I have an idea, let's drive in reverse!"

Not wanting to waste any time, Teresica reconvened the technical meeting, but only called Drost, Carter, Mel and the leader of the Pardoners.

"Victoria's excellent armor is really a headache. We must have weapons that can directly penetrate it, so as to ensure the rapid attack of the assault force."

When Teresica said this, Drost was a little nervous, because some time ago, His Majesty ordered her to develop a special bayonet made of D(L)32 steel, but the bayonet is an equipment They need to be deployed on a large scale and installed in the hands of all soldiers, so it is impossible to use D32 steel for the entire body.At the current cost Kazdaele can afford, only the blade is made of D32 steel, while the rest is made of ordinary steel with acceptable strength.

However, it is not an easy task to calculate the ratio of two steel materials and take into account the relationship between function and cost. This has made her make no progress at all to this day.

"Ms. Droste."

"exist!"

She stood up as if she was frightened, and Teresica quickly motioned for her to sit down.

"Don't be nervous. I have a rough idea of ​​the difficulty of research work, so I have to ask you to worry about it. I have something else I want to ask you for today."

"Please order, Your Majesty."

"Follow the original production method of D32 steel long swords and produce 100 swords."

Listening to this number, Drost was a little surprised, "Your Majesty, the first long sword produced was made entirely of D32 steel! The cost..."

"Yes, I know it's not cheap, so I only need 100 handles, and I also need the matching one-handed shield."

Letania still has some unique experience in designing combat equipment for dismounted knights, so Teresica gave her the task of melee weapons.

This is also the true meaning of what he said to Shining about going backwards, which is to pick up melee equipment again.

By modifying Victoria's equipment, Kazdel can equip small-scale troops with the ability to withstand ballistae, which gives melee equipment room to adapt. The melee one-handed shield is an added layer of insurance on this basis.

"Mr. Carter, can you improve the individual crossbow? Get a personal crossbow that is designed to semi-automatically fire heavy explosive arrows."

Naturally, there is no defense but no attack. Teresica thinks that ordinary arrows can't kill her, so she needs to use stronger ones.

"Your Majesty, this is not difficult at all. Please give me one day."

Carter was so confident that he even set the time.

"What about me? Boss, why did you ask me to come?"

At this time, Mel on the side said, as if nothing happened to her.

"You also have a mission. The equipment I just mentioned is for a group of special soldiers. The environment they face is very dangerous and their survivability will be severely tested. Therefore, I need a spell support that aims to ensure the survival of the soldiers. platform."

Teresica's eyes wandered between the leader of the Sin Absolver and Mel. The meaning was obvious. Mel was responsible for the platform, and the Sin Absolver was responsible for the Origin Stone skills.

"Guarantee survival...Does your Majesty have any ideas?"

The leader of the Pardoner asked, "The scope of ensuring survival is too broad."

"Uh... a defensive spell like Laitanya's that can block long-range weapons? A medical spell that can save soldiers?"

Teresica said a few words casually, which gave the leader of the Pardoner an idea.

"Your Majesty, I understand what you mean."

Chapter 259 Signal Flag

After receiving Teresica's request to maximize performance regardless of cost, Drost immediately let go. She directly took out the design sample of the D32 steel one-handed sword that was initially produced.Its prototype was originally a new generation of one-handed sword with the ability to cause magic damage that Letania requested to develop at that time.

Although Ms. Droste was only responsible for materials research when she was at William University, she had seen the technical documents on the appearance several times, and now they have been copied directly.

The sword is ready-made, but the shield can only be made by Ms. Drost herself.However, thanks to the fact that Teresica had asked her to develop lightweight metals earlier, she did not start the work in a hurry, and part of her work experience was used here.

She once again copied the kite-shaped shield that was the favorite of the Leitanian knights, but considering Sakaz's actual combat needs, she shortened it as a whole and focused on protecting the torso.

The shield is made of lightweight metal. Although the physical strength index is no different from the original version, the weight is reduced by 17%, but the cost is doubled.

Carter was not idle either. He initially followed Teresica's instructions to improve the individual semi-automatic crossbow so that it could semi-automatically fire heavy explosive arrows.

On the basis of the second-generation semi-automatic individual crossbow used by Sakaz elite shooters, he replaced the crossbow bed material with stronger strength, then expanded the magazine and magazine slot, and improved the crossbow bed in several simple ways. A rough way to complete the design requirements.But Carter had also been a soldier when he was young. He had performed raids on enemy camps.

He tried it himself, and then borrowed a few soldiers from the army to try it. Based on their feedback, Carter invited Teresica with a hint of nervousness.

"Your Majesty, in order to allow the raiding force to have a fast attack rhythm, you ordered me to equip the individual crossbow with the ability to semi-automatically fire explosive arrows. I have completed the relevant design."

"Oh? Really!"

Teresica was pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect Carter's efficiency to be so fast, but he himself became more and more nervous.

"But Your Majesty, in actual use experiments, I found that doing this will not improve the offensive efficiency of the soldiers, but will drag them down."

After listening to Carter's words, Teresica immediately motioned for him to explain further.

"During the raid, the troops kept attacking forward, and the faster the tempo, the better. But after shooting the blasting arrows like ordinary arrows, firstly, the movement was too great, and the enemies in a wide range near the raid target The attention will be drawn closer. Secondly, the power of doing so is too great. The impact of the explosion not only kills the enemy but also blocks the path forward of our soldiers."

"...This is an oversight on my part. I pursued combat efficiency too one-sidedly."

Teresica admitted her mistake, "Does that mean two weapons are assigned to soldiers separately?"

However, such an arrangement would leave soldiers who use this weapon idle when it is not suitable to use explosive arrows, and it would be too heavy to equip two weapons at the same time.

"Your Majesty, this is a new design."

Carter came up with a new design draft, "I redesigned the magazine for ordinary arrows so that it can be fired on the new individual crossbow, so that soldiers can use the two types of ammunition according to the situation. Pick.”

"This design is good!"

Teresica is very happy that the semi-automatic individual crossbow project started by Zeppelin has borne new fruits in the hands of this old Sakaz craftsman.

Although Carter was responsible for improving the second-generation semi-automatic individual crossbow, the shadow of Zeppelin's design can be seen everywhere. The third-generation semi-automatic crossbow with the ability to semi-automatically fire ordinary arrows and explosive arrows is basically Carter's handiwork.

Teresica immediately announced that the new individual crossbow would be given the code name G3. G in Sakaz’s equipment represents a semi-automatic individual crossbow, and the number refers to the third generation.

"Your Majesty, during the experiment, the participating soldiers also provided me with a lot of suggestions."

At this time, a handwritten document was handed over by him with both hands. The handwriting on it was very sloppy, but it was indeed the current writing level of the Sakaz soldiers.

Since the use of individual crossbows, the Sakaz army has set up a special writing education department to help soldiers understand the maintenance manual.After the establishment of the military academy, this department officially developed into the literacy education department within the army. Their mission is to ensure that every soldier who leaves the army has the most basic literacy skills.

After careful identification, Teresica finally understood the content recorded above.While most of the ideas are a bit unrealistic, there are a few that are definitely worth trying.

Teresica re-copied it herself and sent it to the leader of the Pardoner.

He is now working with Mel to develop a new spell support platform.

As for support platforms, apart from those that move on the ground, there are only those that move in the sky.Mel took out the ground mobile object that he had been tinkering with in the laboratory in his recent spare time, but it was directly rejected by the military equipment department.

The reason is ground movement, and terrain constraints are always a big problem.

Drones in the air became the only option, but this time it was different from the siphon drones, which were directly equipped with the Originium skill crystals for use. Now, we are starting to develop a real spell support platform.

If it's a matter of Origin Stone skills, then the leader of the Sin Absolver is confident that he can handle most of them, but he doesn't know anything about drones or drones.

However, out of the dignity of the Immortal Species, he would not directly say this to Mel, a foreigner.He used the excuse that His Majesty gave him an extra task and asked her to design the drone by herself, as long as she told him how much space there was inside.

This caused some unnecessary trouble for the cooperation between the two parties, but the final product was completed in a short time.

The leader of the Pardoner once again applied the results obtained from studying the crystallization of Sakaz's ancient origin stone skills. With the theme of ensuring survival, he redesigned a defensive spell and a medical spell.

The former can weaken the kinetic energy of ballista projectiles, and the latter can provide rescue when a soldier's limbs except the head are hit to restore the injured person's mobility as soon as possible.

These two spells are divided into two types of Origin Stone skills: activation spells and effect spells, and the activation spells are universal.

Inside the spell support platform, the activation spell is a cylindrical crystal of Originium technology. It is fixed on a mechanical component designed by Mel that can change the height up and down, while the circuits of the defense spell and medical spell are sealed. There are two ring-shaped crystals, whose inner diameter is consistent with the outer diameter of the activating crystal, arranged one above the other.

In addition to the concealment spells that run independently, switching between different Origin Stone skills can be achieved in a drone by simply changing the height position of the crystal that activates the spell.

While completing the spell support platform, the leader of the Absolver also selected a more feasible suggestion from the suggestions forwarded by Teresica.

The soldier wrote that when using explosive arrows to break through enemy positions, there was too much movement, which was extremely inappropriate for the assault troops who were not exposed in the early stages of the operation.

The leader of the Pardoner and Mel collaborated again, with one responsible for the Origin Stone technology and the other responsible for the mechanical device, to design a throwing spell unit.

Its core component is a piece of engraved spell that can cause people within the affected area to faint for 15 seconds. The entire spell is also divided into two parts: activation and effect.

It is encased in a Victoria-like grenade object, with a mechanical time-delay fuse set inside.4.5 seconds after the safety is pulled out, the spring will push the activation crystal to the activation position, activating the entire Originium skill crystal.

Its activation will not produce any light or noise, ensuring the concealment of the assault force during early operations.

Chapter 260 Breathless pursuit

War has always been one of the greatest driving forces of technological progress.

Stimulated by Rem Billiton's war needs, Kazdaele's technical equipment has undergone a major update. Among them, the semi-automatic individual crossbow has even produced the G2 type when the G3 type has not been produced much.

In the military garrison in Kazdale, Teresica visited the training of the Signal Flag Troops. A Sakaz warrior holding a pure D32 steel long sword waved the sword and immediately put on a simulation of Victoria's protective clothing. The target was cut into two pieces.

On the other side, some soldiers are simulating how to cooperate with the automatic memory spell support platform to provide field rescue treatment to their comrades in the event that their comrades are injured.

"The training of the troops is very good."

Teresica praised Manfred, who was in charge of subject training, but he didn't smile.

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty, but... Your Majesty, the equipment cost of such a soldier is about eight times that of an ordinary soldier, which is much higher than the cost of an individual soldier in the Palette Army."

"There's nothing we can do about it. Our technology isn't as good as Victoria's, so that's all we can do."

Teresica could only helplessly spread her hands.

Because the protective materials were not up to standard, Kazdel had to use the captured Victoria protective clothing to transform the composite armor, and at the same time added protective techniques to block the Victoria ballista.

And because the weapon technology is not up to par, in situations such as surprise operations where close combat is very likely to break out, ordinary bayonets cannot break through Victoria's anti-cut fibers, so they have to be issued with special sword blades in addition to individual crossbows. and shield.

Wanting to gain an advantage when not as skilled as Victoria is equivalent to taking detours in a long-distance race to overtake the leader. It would be strange if he wasn't tired and gasping for air.

Thanks to Sakaz's strong physical fitness, it would be difficult for an ordinary film to carry this kind of weight on its body, let alone fight.

"But Your Majesty, is it too risky to put such expensive combat troops into battle?"

Thinking about the cost of each weapon, Manfred raised concerns from his perspective.A sneak attack by a small group of troops is basically to carry out activities away from the battlefield line. If there is any problem, it will be a waste of money and no rescue.

"You're looking at it the wrong way."

Teresica did not directly refute Manfred. The cost of Kazdaele's individual equipment has continued to increase in just a few years. From the beginning, just wearing clothes and issuing a decent weapon, it has developed to what it is today. , it is human nature for senior military members of the previous generation like Manfred to feel uncomfortable.

"The signal flag is different from the palette. These soldiers have to attack the enemy's combat zone to complete the target mission, which is much more dangerous than the peripheral harassment of the palette. And we have to send our soldiers to the most dangerous place. In an environment where they carry out the most dangerous missions and don’t try their best to prepare them with the best protection and weapons... isn’t that a bad thing?”

He looked at Manfred and said: "Although we don't have a lot of money now, we spend it where it should be spent. If the money is gone, we will earn and save again. If the people are gone, it will take decades."

Manfred said nothing, his thoughts were hesitating and tangled.Assembling such a valuable force to poke a hole in an enemy like Victoria with force against force was, in his eyes, tantamount to gambling with gold, but not doing so would result in more losses.

'I can only choose the one that is relatively better among two options that are both good. '

Manfred suppressed the random thoughts in his heart and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured that these soldiers were selected from the scouts. The training is not very difficult. I will definitely put this unit into combat order as soon as possible."

Rhode Island has been stationed in Kazdale for a while, and Touch likes to sit in a facility in Kazdale on his days off and just observe it all day long.

Today she was sitting next to the community mall in Kazdale. Although it bears the name of a mall, people who come here do not buy freely. Instead, they come here with ration receipts to receive various daily necessities.

Toothpaste, laundry detergent, etc., seem to be of very average quality, but everyone who lives in the community can come here to get them on a monthly basis, and they can only be collected here. The staff are not from the community, so This avoids the phenomenon of multiple collars.

Next to it, there is a window where the canteen meal coupons are recycled.

In Kazdale, each production and non-production unit has its own canteen. Every month, employees have to go to the logistics office to receive this month's meal coupons, and then use the meal coupons to eat in the canteen.

However, some people are still accustomed to the taste of their own homes. In order to take care of these people, a meal coupon recycling point was specially set up.Here you only need to hand over your meal coupons, and the staff will provide you with fresh ingredients in equal amounts, including oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and other condiments, based on your unit and which meal coupon you use for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You have to bring your own container.

Touch has been sitting here for a while. She found that most of the people who came here turned in their dinner coupons, and the staff of the administrative unit rarely came here.Those who leave with large portions of food are usually employees of production and technical units.

They just put their things in soft bags. In the past, such people would have been robbed on the road, and they wouldn't even leave the scraps on the ground.

'A new social management system. '

Touch recorded in her notebook everything she saw and saw during this period.Although Kazdaele now looks mechanical and boring, the Sakaz style here has completely changed.They are gradually becoming peaceful and friendly, and have a certain tolerance for outsiders.

She even saw some refugees from the surrounding areas entering Kazdaele and replacing some simple utensils with the source of their raised Originium Insects. At this time, those people dared to leave their children at the nearby Kazdaele police station. points, and the urban policemen would entertain the children with small pieces of bread.

“This atmosphere is really comfortable!”

Looking at the text of his own record, Touch suddenly felt that in a few decades or even further in the future, when he himself becomes old, it might be a good thing to settle here.

"This is the medical department, Touch. Please call back if you hear me."

The intercom on her chest suddenly rang, and she quickly replied, "This is Touch, please speak."

"Hurry over to Kazdale Hospital. We will purchase as many medical supplies as possible within today."

After saying that, the operator of the Rhode Island Medical Department put down the walkie-talkie and turned to the people around him and told them: "Take out all the red gold and ores and replace them with bandages and medicines!"
