Chapter 662: Artillery Concept
"We won't consider the self-tightening and silk-winding techniques for now."
These two technologies, to put it simply, allow the outer layer of the artillery to shrink inward, and the inner layer of the artillery to expand outward. Relying on the structural changes of the metal itself to compact the barrel, a cannon with a longer range, greater power, and more durability can be created.
But, it's completely unnecessary.
Because the Night Leader didn't even have black powder, he had to wait for himself to get the raw materials before he could grind it out.
"It's decided. The idea of hollow castings can be used to cast double-layered iron cannons." Field knocked on his head. "Fortunately, I had nothing to do before. I liked to quarrel with the old man in the forum and checked a lot of knowledge that seemed useless."
The so-called double-layer iron cannon is an inner cannon forged from wrought iron, and the outer layer is cast from ordinary cast iron or bronze.
The advantages are: durable, high success rate, and can also be wholesaled.
The biggest disadvantage is: huge weight.
"Hehe, but the flaws in the previous life are nothing in this world."
In the previous life, it took six horses to pull a cannon, but now two Warcraft horses can pull it everywhere.
"Design according to the 12- and 18-pound artillery, and with hollow casting technology, the risk of chamber explosion is almost reduced to a minimum."
The so-called hollow piece-by-piece means that running water is continuously injected into the inside of the artillery. The inside of the cold part will cause the outer layer to shrink and stabilize the gun body.
It took Field a week at City Hall to design the first artillery piece.
On a thick stack of paper, those small designs that should be improved piece by piece according to history, such as the height machine, fixed wedge, gun lugs, artillery frame, wheels, etc., were all drawn into drawings and stuffed in.
So much so that Field himself began to sweat profusely, feeling that such a design was too advanced and difficult to implement.
"No matter what, be bold and fail. Anyway, as long as the main body of the cannon is designed, it will be considered a success."
With a cheerful smile, Field called someone excitedly and immediately called the little fox.
However, after waiting for a long time, Field was surprised to receive the reply "Miss Goglis, she is not in the industrial area. She has gone back to the castle to rest. No one dares to disturb her."
"This workaholic actually has a day off on Wednesday. He must be sick."
Field put the drawings with him, immediately drove his horse, and hurried back to the castle.
"What happened?"
As soon as he entered the castle, Field saw Asheina waiting quietly.
"Sir, Miss Fox is breaking through the second level."
"I can feel that the territory's divine power is flowing into the little fox crazily." Charlotte on the side nodded enviously.
"Ah? There is such a good thing!" Field's eyes lit up.
I waited for the territory's logistics staff to advance, but after waiting for a long time, I was even worried that they wouldn't be able to advance.
"It seems that expanding the territory's population will be of great help to everyone."
Taking a long breath of relaxation, Field thought about it carefully. Isn't the normal advancement speed of the Chosen One just that slow? It's just that the advancement of disaster is too fast and convenient, which misleads me.
After Asuna came to the territory, it took a long time to break through to the second level.
As the majestic divine power gathered, Gao Gelis' momentum increased steadily, and her skin became more hydrated.
About an hour later, the little fox yawned, scratched his uncombed hair, and the bell-shaped ornament hanging around his neck swayed from side to side.
She pushed open the bedroom door: "Huh~ My body is sticky and covered with sweat. I need to take a shower."
Feeling the gaze directed at him, the little fox turned his head and suddenly felt embarrassed: "Huh? Why are you all here?"
"You are indeed a little fox, congratulations." Field gave a thumbs up.
"Envy, stare~" Xia Luowei leaned over and narrowed her eyes, "Stare~ you are so awesome."
"I just did what I should do, no, don't worry about it."
The little fox scratched her head shyly. The feeling of being noticed by everyone made her jiojio not know where to put it, so she had to dig her toes on the ground helplessly.
"Okay, you go take a shower first, and we'll talk about overtime and work later."
Field understood her temper and waved his hand to indicate that everyone should not crowd around her.
"Well, leave it to me!"
When she heard about the work, she ran to take a shower.
Not long after, a freshly dressed little fox came over with a fragrant smell: "Sir, how would you like to add more?"
"I want to hear your opinion."
Field was very confused. After all, the little fox was very useful as the territory's logistics, whether it was territory bonuses, talents or magical skills.
Unlike the combat-type Chosen One, some options can be eliminated almost without thinking.
"How about...talent or territory bonus? I don't know anything about combat. If I get combat magic skills, I will be very distressed." The little fox held his head and swayed his big snow-white tail back and forth, "And , fighting will affect my research.”
This socially shy guy is also kind-hearted. If he fights, he might turn into a great saint.
"Okay, let's try the talent first."
Field opened Goglisi's panel. In addition to improving her physical fitness, Goglisi gained new points.
1. New magical skills.
2. New talents.
3. Territory bonus.
4. Army bonus.
With a thought in his mind, Field made his choice.
The invisible divine connection connected the two of them, and a mysterious force surged towards the little fox.
At the same time, Field also received information about new talents.
New Talent: Ingenious Accessories - Armor
Effect 1: Goglis can command the artifact (mechanical fox) to assist a factory in production. All forged equipment and facilities will receive the "Armor" inscription.
Armor inscription: Equipment strength increased by 10%, loss reduced by 10%, defense increased by 5%, magic defense increased by 5%.
Effect 2: Goglis and the artifact can be used to forge qualified Douqi armor plates, Douqi armor, shields, etc.
Current highest forging level: Douqi level 2.
Note: Armor style, material, and design will affect the final product, and the attributes of armor are not fixed.
"Fuck, God!"
Field took a breath.
If it weren't for not being able to do something inexplicable to the little loli, Field really wanted to hold her in a circle and lift her up high.
"In this way, Douqi equipment for all members is not a dream."
Moreover, the Douqi equipment she produced, as well as the armor inscription, is stronger than the standard equipment of the empire. Similarly, the artillery she assisted in forging will also be more durable.
I was worried about the territory's armament manufacturing industry before, but now it's getting better.
After telling the gods about this, the little fox was praised by everyone again, and her face turned red.
"Don't, don't praise me." The little fox waved her hands repeatedly, "My lord, what task do you want to tell me?"
After letting Asina take a look around, Field whispered: "This, I call it artillery, it is one of the top secrets of the territory."
"I will open a special arms manufacturing plant, arrange the best blacksmiths and equipment support for you, and try to realize it."
"Now, I will tell you the principles and ideas, and you can fill in the gaps."
