Warhammer Throne

Chapter 624: , Land Cruiser and Noor Armor

The mechanical warhorse is another brand-new invention of the Noor military factory. The reason for this invention is that after obtaining the hybrid elf warhorse, many Noor knights and nobles moved their minds. They all wanted a good horse. For knights, a good horse means strong fighting power and better survivability.

Emilia has a hybrid elf warhorse, which was sent by Lane. Because Emilia does not ride very often, this hybrid elf warhorse is often borrowed and bred by the nobles of the nobles, which is delicious and delicious. Coaxing, but because of no knowledge of the elf warhorse breeding, the nobles of Noor have not yet matched a qualified warhorse offspring.

In essence, the Bretons are not very proficient in the breeding of pure blood elf war horses. The best thing about how to breed elf war horses is the wood elf. The uncle Warne Grape is also the wood elf who is responsible for breeding. A dozen foals, but Uncle Grape didn't take a look at these heirs. It only liked Surya's mount pure-blood elf marich, two war horses gave birth to a few pure-blood foals, which are currently kept in The stables of the Duke of Lane Castle and the pasture outside the castle.

For this, the chief engineers of the Noor military factory were not happy. They thought about the problem that the mechanical energy can solve. Why should they solve it with horses?

Wouldn't it be a problem to build a powerful mechanical horse?

Do it, the engineers of Noor immediately used mechanical and clock structures to make such a mechanical warhorse. This mechanical warhorse requires a lot of time to be carefully crafted and polished. As long as it runs smoothly, the mechanical warhorse can break everything and block its own. Enemies and obstacles.

An engineer rode a mechanical war horse proudly, he waved towards the crowd, and they all raised their hands to signal that they could start the performance.

"it has started!"

Pushing the button and pulling the reins, the empire engineer drove the mechanical horse to start the movement.

Soon, the mechanical warhorse began to run, and the sound of springs and gears came from its body. The entire mechanical device started to start. The sound roared. The crystallization of human elite technology and wisdom was perfectly interpreted in the body of the mechanical warhorse. As a kind of ancient fire of hope lighted on the body of the mechanical horse, the power of thunder was surging on the body of the mechanical horse.

"Start!" The Empire engineer shouted loudly. He looked like a great general, an invincible knight!

Next second. "boom!"

"Boom! Boom!"

The entire mechanical warhorse exploded!

In the sound of explosions and the leakage of electric sparks and steam, the mechanical horse exploded. It disintegrated directly in front of the crowd. The horse kicked on its hind legs and flew into the air with the imperial engineer on the horse. The fragments of the sky!

The gears, springs, and iron pieces fell to the ground, making a rattling sound, and then the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.

The poor Imperial Engineer fell from the air, fell to the ground on the spot, and made a miserable cry: "Ah! My leg, my leg broke! I need treatment, I need treatment!"

Everyone: "..."

Is this a powerful mechanical horse?

It's really powerful. Both Ryan and Surya couldn't help but cover their mouths and laughed. Alfred was still tolerant. The female Noske Ingrid was already laughing and rolling on the ground.

After being silent for a few seconds, Emilia couldn't see it anymore, and the empire barrage looked sullen. She motioned to the attendant: "Bring him down and send him to the Mercy Church for treatment."

"Yes!" The near attendant immediately lifted the engineer who broke his leg.

"My chief engineer, I think I need an explanation. Every year, our city council grants you tens of thousands of dollars. What did the military factory produce?" Emilia smiled, she is not. The little maid mode in front of Ryan, but the Empire Baroness mode, the majesty of his body is almost full of overflow: "What is this? Self-destructive warhorse? Noor does not need this kind of thing."

"Uh ..." Maybach, the chief engineer, was a little embarrassed. He lowered his head and said, "Sorry, my lordess, the mechanical warhorse is still in the trial stage and debugging stage ..."

"What I need is not a reason. What I want to know is the reason, my chief engineer." Emilia still smiled, but everyone could feel her anger hidden behind the smile.

"Mechanical warhorse has always been a big problem in stability, my baroness." Chief Mayor Maybach had to tell the truth, he sighed: "The structure of the mechanical horse is too precise, I mean ... its whole body To be well maintained, as long as there is a problem with a part, it can easily evolve into the fault just like this. This is not the first time. Several engineers have been injured because of this, but my Countess, we still think there is The need for further research. "

"It's gone." Emilia said impatiently. "I think precious research funding should be used in more important places. What do you think? Gunter-Maybach?"

"When ... Of course, everything follows your orders." The chief engineer nodded bitterly.

A farce was quickly revealed, the chief engineer was a little embarrassed, and the high-spirited momentum no longer existed. He then began to introduce the latest war machine in the Noor military factory to everyone.

Land Cruiser.

This giant unit up to seven or eight meters tall is a new order from the Marienburg Businessmen's Union. It has a very large body, about eight meters high, four meters wide, and more than ten meters long. The ship is equipped with a large boiler , A standard Empire heavy cannon is equipped in front of the hull, four small cannons are equipped on both sides, two on one side, the hull is enough to arrange 20-40 soldiers to fight on the land-based ship, the hull uses the small front The wooden wheel guide and the large rear wheels provide power and are driven by a steam boiler.

Ryan took a closer look at this somewhat ridiculous and magnificent behemoth, and smiled: "This landboat you guys are doing, excited!"

The birth of the land-going ship also has a little relationship with Lane.

As we all know, Marienburg is a free city. This city was separated from the empire before the great jihad. After the great jihad, in the face of the unparalleled prestige of the savior Ludwig and the oppression of the imperial forces, the merchants of Marienburg We chose to surrender to Ludwig ’s rule, but used a surprising amount of gold in exchange for “permanent autonomy” from Ludwig. For more than 100 years, Marienburg With the power of autonomy, the merchants of Marienburg are tired of the endless political conspiracies and wars of the imperial court, and they only care about their profits.

However, because of this, the businessmen ’s decision is considered a double-edged sword. After they won the independence, they also made their cities lack a strong army. As mentioned earlier, the bourgeoisie is weak and the merchants are not capable. Like the military aristocrats of the empire, they can gather a large number of soldiers and elites in their own territories. The mercenaries cultivated by the merchants cannot beat the elite of the empire. When facing the war, Marienburg Have to spend a lot of money and connections to seek the help of the empire.

Just like twelve years ago, Mariinburg was forced to ask the empire for help when facing the green-skin invasion, and the empire took the opportunity to open the griffon, and ruined Mariinburg a lot. By the way, the merchants agreed to a lot. Equal conditions.

The profiteers certainly wo n’t be reconciled, but Marienburg ’s defense is indeed very fragile, and the merchants cannot even allow the enemy to approach the suburbs of Marienburg, not to mention the city walls?

So the profiteers looked at the super killer such as the steam tank.

Of course, how could the empire allow profiteers to reach out to the war machine like a steam tank at the bottom of the tank? In history, Marienburg has only successfully rented two mass-produced conqueror-class steam tanks. The super high rent is enough to make several commercial chambers in Marienburg almost go bankrupt, and it also faces 24-hour surveillance by the Imperial Army.

At the same time, the profiteers found that the steam tank could not be purchased by any means and at any cost. No matter how good the bureaucrats and generals of the empire were and the profiteers of Fort Mariin, how they promised to help. When they heard the words steam tanks, they turned around People, the engineers of the empire were even asked to keep secrets at the cost of death.

The only official who accepted a huge bribe and promised to help evaporated in situ after returning home. Three days later, he was found publicly executed on the streets of Braunschweig on charges of treason.

The merchants in Marienburg quickly realized that they could not buy a steam tank, but ... maybe the empire could be commissioned to make "a steam tank that belongs to Marienburg?"

It was about the time after Ryan left Mariinburg. After the Battle of the Colesan Plains, the merchants of Mariinburg sat together for a meeting again. The merchants who had tasted the pain finally made up their minds, and those who occupied the House of Lords Which of the big trench merchants does not have a net worth of tens or even hundreds of thousands of gold marks? They decided to concentrate the money in one place, and then asked the Empire to help them build a steam tank belonging to Marienburg.

The Braunschweig military factory refused, because the Braunschweig military factory did not have the ability to manufacture steam tanks, and the dwarves of Breeze Fort refused and mocked that humans are really a group of idiots (in fact, they will not).

In the end, Marinburg found the Noor military factory. In the face of the tens of thousands of gold mark deposit and the promised more follow-up investment, the Noor military factory was silent. Noor and Brunswick are different. This industrial city needs this. Large orders and funds, as well as the large amount of gold sent into the Noor palace, also made those big nobles shut their mouths.

Including Emilia, the Countess of the Empire was originally very dissatisfied with this, but the gift of 10,000 gold marks sent by Marienburg and a large number of precious ornaments and cosmetics of high elves made Emilia finally choose acquiescence.

Since then, the Noor military factory has accepted this order, and the Noor engineers have been asked to build a "higher, faster, stronger" war machine than the steam tank, and are required to be able to drive in the swamp, and Not too complicated, at least to ensure that the engineers at Marienburg can learn how to control.

"It really makes us embarrassed." At this time, the head of the land liner project, the great engineer of the Empire, Hezekiah Goodman, came out. This is a very special big engineer. He is still clean in one body. Wearing a scar on his face, wearing a soft cap from his head to his chin, and a clock on top of the cap, which makes his head and clock look like a gourd together.

He introduced: "As we all know, our understanding of steam power technology itself has a certain limit, only those big engineers who are proficient in steam technology can skillfully manipulate the steam tank, know when to decompress, when to pressurize, what It should be properly overloaded at the time, and the requirements of Marienburg are too difficult. We have messed up many times. For example, the main gun is too strong, and the recoil of the artillery makes the steam tank disintegrate. For example, if the steam boiler is too small, the power is not enough. It ’s easy to explode, it ’s easy to fall apart when the steam tank turns, and the wheels will fall off. ”

"So how did you solve this problem in the end?" Ryan asked curiously: "As you can imagine, you must have encountered many difficulties."

"After many failures, we suddenly realized that we did n’t have to forcefully copy a larger steam tank according to the steam tank prototype. We just needed to be higher and larger as required by the merchants in Marienburg. , Stronger ~ "Goodman engineer is quite proud:" So we immediately gave up the manufacture of a new tank, but in accordance with Marienburg's requirements to build this kind of "land cruise ship", we enlarged the steam boiler to ensure smooth Allowed, it may not be as sturdy and powerful as a steam tank, but with a sufficiently large volume and a sturdy hull, at least when the steam boiler does not explode and the tires are operating normally, the land-based ship proves to be a walking fortress and land The cruiser, after reviewing the Marienburg, was very satisfied. They asked us to build half a dozen (six) at a stretch. "

"How much did you build?" Ryan asked next.

"We have built three, and the fourth is nearing completion." Goodman engineer nodded. "With the prototype, the remaining mass production is always easy. I mean ... if the money is enough, Of course we can make it. "

"Huh." Ryan nodded, and he had a thought in his heart.

At the end of today ’s visit, everyone is going to visit the Noor Artillery Academy. Because this visit involves some privacy and technical secrecy, there are not many places that Lane and others can visit, mainly the teaching building, dormitory building, shooting range and canteen .

At this time, after a morning visit, the time had come in the afternoon. When the crowd entered the canteen, Lane noticed that there were still more than twenty Nur armored troops eating in the canteen.

The Nur Armored Army is probably the most powerful firearms unit in the old world. This army is composed of students, guards, and mentors from the Nur Artillery Academy. The number is small, about seven or eight hundred people, they are wearing heavy armor Master-level muskets, the Noor Armoured Army is the most widely respected and well-equipped rifle regiment in the empire, and it also has no lack of powerful melee capabilities. The army soldiers are almost from the noble children of the empire, except for sending their children to Rick In addition to the imperial guard, enrolling in the Noor Gun Academy is also an ideal direction for the children of the imperial nobles.

"Hello, my Baroness, Lord Lane, Mrs. Surya, I am Jubal Fokker, commander of the Noor Armored Force." A kite wearing black half-length plate armour and wearing several helmet feathers A helmet and a general with a big brown beard stood in front of everyone: "Welcome to the Noor Gun Academy."

"Jubair Fokker is a battle-hardened tycoon." Emilia stood out, and the Countess of the Empire said triumphantly: "He is regarded by many as his excellent ability to control tactics. The successor to the President of the Engineers Association, dear Jubah was born at the Nur River Wharf. His tactical talent and firm execution discipline led him to rise rapidly in the team. He respected those engineers who provided professional skills and people with high moral character to join the army. But he never treats slack or incompetent people mercilessly. "

"The baroness is overrated." Jubal Fokker, commander of the Noor Armoured Forces, bowed his head in embarrassment: "Sorry, we are eating."

"It's okay, can you show us the chef afterwards?" Ryan suddenly became interested.

"Of course!" Zhu Barr didn't expect Ryan to make such a request. He was stunned for a moment, but he agreed.

Everyone entered the kitchen. Today ’s meal of the Noor Iron Armor is steak + vegetable salad + mashed potatoes + bread + boiled carrots + corn chowder. They eat very well, and only heavy industrial cities like Noor are capable.

"Tactical fighting." Ryan looked at the Noor Armoured Army holding an iron pan for cooking.

"Tactical steak ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ The back kitchen is frying steak.

"Tactical meal."

"Tactical bald." Ryan finally pointed to the bald head of an armored soldier.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!" The audience burst into laughter, both Suria and Emilia laughed tremblingly and could not stand upright.

Lane ’s humor put a happy end to this visit.

When the crowd came out of the Noor military factory, the old guard Raymond quickly approached: "My Duke, Duchess!"

"What's the matter, Raymond?" Ryan knew that the old guard wouldn't be all right to find himself.

"Mr. Oliver is here, and Mr. Vincent has arrived in Nur." Raymond whispered: "They are waiting for you where you are staying."

"Very good, we will go back now." Remember the site's website, www. biquxu. Com, easy to read next time, or Baidu input "", you can enter this site
