Release that Witch - Chapter 1067
[Chapter 1045 Black River on the Plain]
When the train stopped in front of the crowd, Iron Ax finally got a glimpse of it in its entirety.
It has only five sections in total, which is much shorter than the one on public display, but because it is covered with steel plates, it looks much thicker and bulkier, and with its non-reflective black appearance, it looks like a prostrate giant wild beast.
The shape of the front section and the rear section of the car are exactly the same, but they are arranged symmetrically – in addition to the two rotatable machine gun turrets, there are also many small holes in the armor belt below. There is no doubt that those holes are used It is used for soldiers to observe and shoot.
Iron Ax could already imagine the scene when the enemy rushed towards the new weapon.
Spears that fell like rain hit the steel plate, making a clanging sound, but the train remained motionless and continued to move forward at a steady speed.
At the same time, one side of its body sprayed more than a dozen flames towards the enemy, beating the targets within range into honeycombs.
Whether it is a devil or an evil beast, they can only be beaten passively, and they are completely useless.
It is like a moving city wall, providing the most reliable protection for the First Army wherever it goes.
Just thinking about it makes me feel excited!
Discussions have been faintly heard among the soldiers in charge of guarding around.
But this is not the most eye-catching place of the train.
In addition to stabilizing the front line for the First Army, its ultimate goal is to destroy the Taquila ruins and those skeleton monsters as tall as towers, so large-caliber artillery is a must.
At this moment, these two deadly weapons are placed on the second and fourth carriages.
Although it is still loaded with 152mm fortress guns, according to His Majesty, these guns have longer barrels and more charges.
The difference can be seen with the eyes alone – a cannon almost takes up the entire space of the entire carriage, and even a machine gun cannot be inserted.
The tail of the gun barrel is also surrounded by a huge iron shell, and that shell is even wider than the car body, so that even if the devil attacks from the air, it cannot interrupt the artillery fire.
The only thing that worries Iron Ax is that this brand new enclosure design is extremely safe, but it also adds a lot of weight and volume, making it feel a bit top-heavy.
In particular, the direction of the cannon needs to be adjusted when firing. If the entire train is rotated, can the train withstand the violent impact of firing?
“Report Your Majesty,” a soldier trotted up to the king and saluted, “All personnel are ready, please order!”
“This is a weapon that has not yet been officially installed. Whether it is maintenance or improvement, it is the responsibility of the Engineering Department.” Roland smiled and shook his head, “So it is not me who is in charge of testing today, but the Minister of Engineering—— You should report to her.”
It was only then that Iron Ax noticed that the queen was also present for the test, but compared to other witches, her attire looked like work clothes, so he didn’t recognize it immediately.
“His Royal Highness, Queen…” The soldier stuttered, and he saluted Anna again, “All personnel are ready, ready…”
“I see,” Anna replied calmly, “Let them start the test.”
“Yes!” The reporter hurriedly shouted towards the train, “Start the artillery!”
This little episode made everyone show a smile of understanding, but it didn’t have any impact on the test. As the password was issued, the siren echoed over the forest for a while.
“Woo———————————”
Iron Ax immediately turned his attention back to the train, and when there was a creaking sound of the winch, he was surprised to find that the car body had changed.
Two thick “iron feet” spread out under the second and fourth carriages, and before that, he thought they were just insignificant baffles.
It wasn’t until it was fully opened that Iron Ax realized that it was a set of machinery that could operate independently. A flat iron plate was fixed at the end of the “iron legs”. Spider legs.
This…isn’t this exactly what a devil deformed species looks like!
Could it be that your majesty got this inspiration from the enemy and used it in a new weapon?
But no matter what, the pure metal combination does not seem to have a hint of evil, but is full of majestic momentum.
When these iron feet were completely settled, the artillery finally pointed to the sky and made the first roar!
In the violent tremors and air currents, the black giant remained motionless, as if it was solidified with the earth.
…
It seemed that the effect was not bad, Roland took off the earplugs, and nodded approvingly at Anna.
These subsystems have been tested many times before loading into the vehicle. This time, it is just to verify the performance of the integrated system. It is not surprising that the first firing can be successful.
In fact, compared to the firepower unit and power unit of the armored train, he paid more attention to the four supporting legs under the gun mount.
This can be regarded as the first practical inspection of hydraulic devices.
According to Pascal’s principle, the pressure on the closed liquid is equal in all directions, so in a U-shaped tube with unequal cross-sectional area, it only needs to squeeze the small section with a small force to transfer a much larger pressure to the large section. force.
Because of the magnifying effect of this four-two jack, the application range of hydraulic devices is extremely wide, from jacks for manual pressure, to machine tools for pumping control, UU Kanshu www.
sonicmtl.com can see it.
Its only difficulty lies in processing and sealing, but for the current Neverwinter City, there is no technical difficulty.
What is carried on the train is a set of hydraulic support equipment controlled by a motor.
The two steam-powered locomotives push and pull to drive the body, and the sufficient power can make the armored train travel at a speed of more than 40 kilometers per hour; followed by two artillery units, with fifteen rounds of ammunition in the turret, so it looks extraordinarily large.
The most middle one is the ammunition loading vehicle, which is also the power source of the whole vehicle – one Suguang No. 1 can meet the needs of two hydraulic pumps, interior lighting and ventilation.
These five carriages constitute a basic armored train unit.
If the reinforcement speed is not pursued, new compartments can be added to the front and rear of the vehicle, such as a personnel carrier or a sentinel vehicle with more powerful suppression firepower.
And this is also the charm of armored trains. By changing the trailer joints, you can combine tactical weapons with various uses.
Amidst the endless exclamation of everyone, Edith walked towards him with a smile.
“In this way, the most important part of the plan to attack Taquila has been completed,” she said, rubbing her chest. “Do you know that this new weapon has a name?”
Roland pondered for a moment, “Just call it the Black River.”
“Heihe?” Edith rolled her eyes, “corresponds to the blood line of the devil?”
As expected of the Pearl of the North, he couldn’t help raising the corner of his mouth, “…that’s right.”
In the area where the red mist cannot cover, the devil once transported thousands of criss-crossing blood lines of red mist to maintain the needs of the frontline outposts. This is not only their lifeline, but also the bloody blood that makes the Federation fear texture.
And now, there will be another lifeline of another color on the Fertile Plain.
The dark armored trains will carry personnel and ammunition, cruise in the vast plains, forming a new long black river.
