Chapter 319: The Revelation of the Toxin Grenade
Zeren: "Dune cavalry? What is this?"
Jane: "The cavalry of the sheep-headed people, a special cavalry unit that rides on anti-gravity hoverboards to carry out all-terrain raids.
As night officially fell, Zeren, who was working in the study, felt a certain curiosity when he heard about such a unit.
Cavalry has basically never appeared in the Krurod Empire. Therefore, Zeren naturally wanted to know how the sheep-headed people conduct cavalry combat and what direction their combat focus tends to.
But when Jane handed him a piece of information, he couldn't help but nod. The sheep-headed people are really unique in terms of suspension vehicles. As long as the dune cavalry rides on the anti-gravity hoverboard, they can play a faster speed than the old-fashioned cavalry that used to ride on livestock.
At the same time, even though these dune cavalrymen were fighting with a cross sword in hand, Zelen found that they actually preferred to throw grenades with corrosive toxins at targets close to them, or directly perform spell attacks.
Such cavalry...
Is it advanced?
However, the Negan Empire also successfully reverse-engineered and developed a number of vehicles with magnetic levitation chassis.
Especially their motorcycles, which are said to have a maximum speed almost as fast as bullets. Some smart riders even carry 81mm or 120mm mortars, or some recoilless guns that can fire continuously while running.
Of course, such technology, in the final analysis, is inseparable from the demons. After all, since the demons appeared in the history books of various countries, they have used It is famous for using magnetic weapons as one of its most obvious features.
It was from that time that countries could not easily use weapons that could react to magnetism when fighting against the demons and their followers, that is, the cultists.
Iron swords are out of the question, and steel things must be demagnetized and anti-electric. Otherwise, the demons have plenty of ways to make themselves lambs to be slaughtered on the spot.
So Zelun can confirm that the long swords of the sheep-headed people will definitely not be responsive to magnetism, and will not attract electric current to cause electric shock damage to the sword holder. This led to the emergence of something, Mithril, a rumored insensitive metal, which is non-conductive and has no magnetic induction phenomenon. If you encounter a master craftsman, Mithril can also be made into a sword that can be attached with magical power.
However, due to the development of the times Due to the development of civilizations, conflicts and even the fall of civilizations, the samples and formulas of mithril have long been lost. Coupled with the development of modern steel industry technology, mithril swords have now become pages of illustrations in history books whose authenticity is unknown.
As for whether anyone has restored it... Sorry, in the Krurod Empire, Zelen himself has not heard of any craftsman who has such leisure.
There are very superficial and deep fundamental reasons why antiques are eliminated or forgotten. What's more, the times are different now, and the tactics of using swords to kill enemies in close combat are seriously lagging behind the development of the times.
Unless there is a "smart" head who can think of mithril bullets or even mithril cannonballs, Zelen himself does not believe that mithril will reappear on a large scale one day.
It's just that how the sheep-headed people, other cultists and the demons behind the scenes forged such a long sword, as well as those weapons and equipment that can also be described as "magical", this is probably a difficult thing to analyze.
Technology is not something you can learn by watching the whole process. Even if you participate in the manufacturing process yourself, you cannot guarantee that you will master the technology.
Because if there is no sufficient industrial foundation, technology cannot be born at all.
And Zelun himself thinks that it is a very correct decision to support the manufacturing industry on the basis of developing agriculture.
After all, the Kruro Empire is an archipelago country. There are a large number of islands in the four provinces. The different resources produced on the islands are destined to prosper trade.
To support the prosperity of trade, industry is an important pillar force that must be there.
Industry can provide a sufficient number of trade commodities for business, and at the same time, it can also provide enough jobs for the people in the country to prevent everyone from doing nothing and starting all kinds of fights.
You must know that the Kruro Empire does not ban guns and allows people to own guns. Once the people have nothing to do for a long time, things that make trouble out of nothing will definitely lead to more serious turmoil in the country. And inspired by the war, Zelun is more and more aware that the education of his country really cannot be relaxed.
There are too many things in the world that the Kruro Empire needs to digest slowly, but the outside forces may not give this time. Therefore, the sheep-headed people as a touchstone cannot be wasted.
But compared to this, the poison grenade.
The more Zelen thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
Although the goat-headed people were experts in biological and chemical weapons and had carried out many "cleansing" activities in the city in history; but this kind of poison grenade was definitely not something that the goat-headed people would actively make.
On the contrary, he was very suspicious that the goat-headed people who hated gunpowder weapons had slaves who mastered the production of gunpowder weapons to work for them, so as to develop such a grenade that could explode a corrosive poisonous mist after being thrown out.
Hmm?
No!
The goat-headed people used gunpowder weapons!
At least a few hundred years ago, the sheep-headed people had lurked on an island in the Krurod Empire and built an underground fortress. They took the initiative to release zombie plague viruses in the surrounding areas, causing the army at that time to spend a whole year killing zombies and three years of hard work to purify.
Dong He, who knew the inside story and had witnessed biological weapons such as poison grenades, was out on patrol early in the morning, but he ran into a group of guys he didn't want to see at all.
They were not ordinary pig-headed people or sheep-headed people, but poisonous explosive lice that were about the same size as wild cats.
Bang!
With a crisp explosion, Dong He and his party saw a large area of green poisonous fog constantly covering the surrounding forests.
Faced with such a scene, Dong He ran back even if he didn't hear the order from his superiors.
For no other reason, the poisonous fog produced by the self-explosion of poisonous explosive lice is not only extremely horrible and deadly, but also dispersed by the wind according to the terrain and environment. At the same time, under the protection and promotion of the poisonous fog, the speed of the poisonous lice will be accelerated.
In short, run as fast as you can!
Obviously, after staying in the territory of the Krurod Empire, Dong He did not even look back, and was determined not to shoot while walking like his comrades.
Poisonous lice will not appear alone, and they will move in groups when they appear. Therefore, Dong He did not even look at them, and directly prepared the grenades on his body.
Then, the safety was released, and he aimed at the four-legged reptiles behind him that were green in black.
Bang!
Even though he knew that if he threw it like this, the poisonous lice would definitely explode in a chain, creating a wider area filled with poisonous fog, and even knocked down several of his comrades directly.
However, in order to survive, sometimes you can't hesitate. Otherwise, don't think about living, let alone how to escape from the mouth of an omnivorous monster like poisonous lice.
And he didn't have to run far. A sedan truck with a Yuanjia anti-aircraft machine gun soon appeared in front of him. The 15mm caliber machine gun on it was his best amulet.
Boom boom boom! Boom boom...
It has to be said that the larger the caliber, the greater the power.
Especially the 15×96mm shellless machine gun bullet fired by the Yuanjia anti-aircraft machine gun. This bullet is not just a steel core bullet.
The soft steel bullet core not only has the ability to penetrate the carapace of the poisonous explosion lice, but also can completely tear it apart before it explodes. As for the ignorant female people who have never been on the battlefield, they imagine that the bullet hole will only penetrate from front to back. Sorry, the unlucky person hit by the bullet will be torn by the bullet, and then become a pile of broken meat and bloody residue everywhere. This is the most normal phenomenon.
Like the 15×96mm caseless machine gun bullet, this bullet was not intended to attack infantry units from the beginning, but can tear apart lightly armored vehicles and even flying vehicles.
