Chapter 276： Short board and inspiration (1/2)

In the eyes of many people, the development of Cecil is already a miracle. Even the managers of Cecil will inevitably have such an idea. It is true that compared with most of the nobles in the current era, Cecil’s leadership has gone beyond common sense in any aspect, whether it is the construction of the people’s livelihood or the change of military power, but Gao Wen never does. miss you.

The imaginary enemies in Gao Wen’s mind are never the mediocrity of the borderless aristocrats, or even the long-established veteran forces of the king’s capital. From the day of inheriting the memory of Gao Wen Cecil, from the day when the magic tide exists Since then, his imaginary enemy has been beyond the current human power, and in the face of these enemies, his current power is not enough.

"Those monsters have intelligence," Hetty said after Gao Wen’s voice fell. "Although the thinking ability does not seem to be very strong, they obviously have a certain ability to think. They will judge the form on the battlefield and will judge the trebuchet. Attacks range and attack in safe areas, they can even command the 'army' if their commanding ability is stronger, we will not win so easily."

Amber sitting on the other side of Gao Wen couldn’t help but say: "I didn't find them intelligence when I was investigating."

"This shows that their intelligence is not perfect, or the behavioral pattern is different from human beings," Gao Wen is not surprised. "The distortion is a well-targeted creature, and this will not change, so it is encountered. Even before the attack target, even the intellectual distortions will not do extra things, which makes them look different from other monsters before launching the attack. But after this incident, we have added another experience. ""

"In addition, we also exposed a problem in this battle," Gao Wen continued. "When dealing with the big guys, the attacking ability of ordinary soldiers is obviously not enough, and the trebuchet...the hit rate is too low."

In the second half of the battle, three monsters crossed the middle of the battlefield, which is already the range of thermal ray guns, but the hot rays that deal with ordinary distortions show the firepower in the face of those huge monsters. The short board is difficult to penetrate the enemy's body. Even if it penetrates, it is difficult for the small killing area to cause damage to monsters like small houses. The mutant monsters seem to quickly recognize this. So they dared to stop in front of the city gate and gather forces to prepare to attack and tell the truth. If there was no super big fireball from Rebecca’s last one, let the three large “distortion bodies” put black lightning If you come out, it may be very dangerous.

As for the crystal grenade as a sub-armor of individual soldiers... Their power can pose a certain threat to the monsters, but the attack distance is not enough. On the one hand, the physical exertion of the soldiers is another shortcoming, and the crystal grenade delays the explosion and the flight speed. Slow, for the monsters that already have some intelligence, the effect is really not optimistic.

It turns out that only the crystallization bomb thrown out by the trebuchet can easily eliminate those monsters, but the shortcomings of the trebuchet are too obvious, the hit rate is poor, the range is narrow, the filling is slow and the soldiers are physically exhausted, before using the crystal bomb as ammunition. It even has a terrible power. It can be said that what makes this style of painting unsuccessful appears on the south wall of Cecil, which is completely helpless.

The above shortcomings are only the parts that Byron and others can understand. In fact, Gao Wen knows that the shortcomings of the trebuchet are far more than the trebuchets that can only throw the ammunition. They do not have the "piercing" attribute, and the throwing out is no matter Stones or bombs, as long as there is no direct shooting ability, it is very difficult to play in the face of a solid wall. It is a wonderful thing to throw a bomb over the city wall and throw it into the enemy city, but as long as the walls of the traditional aristocratic castle itself One day, the form of war will not change.

Although Gao Wen’s ultimate imaginary enemy is the magic tide and the magic tide associated with the disaster, he is very clear that he must face the world’s secular power before facing the power of nature, and it is definitely not stable at present. The situation in the mainland, he must first create weapons that can fight against traditional walled cities.

Otherwise, his Cecil collar may not be able to live on the day against the magic tide.

"The trebuchet capable of ejecting a crystal bomb is already the most powerful weapon I have ever seen," Philipp Knight couldn't help but hear from Gao Wen. "Unless...we can make it as easy to operate as a heat ray gun." But new weapons of even greater scale."

In a world where gunpowder propellant weapons have never appeared, Gao Wen has a hard time explaining the concept of "artillery" to others, but he can describe the characteristics of the artillery, and after hearing his description, everyone is trapped. Thinking about it.

Herti first broke the silence: "The key to the problem is to launch the 'cannonball' straight out at a very fast speed. We have created a powerful cannonball, but we can't 'launch', you mean this. What?"

"Yes, and I considered the repulsion arbitrage," Gao Wen nodded. "It’s just that the rap-fighting genre lacks explosive power. It’s hard to give the shell enough initial velocity. If you use something like an accelerated orbit, you can shoot it at the shell. It is theoretically feasible to set a large number of angles with appropriate repulsive points on the acceleration path. However, I have roughly calculated that even with the most efficient repulsive substrate and the best arrangement spacing, this acceleration orbit needs more than ten meters or even Tens of meters long can make the shells have enough lethality and range, otherwise it is not as good as a trebuchet."

At this time, Kamal, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke up: "Do you have to have a physical 'cannonball'?"

Gao Wen's eyebrows are picking up, with a look in the tone: "Do you have other ideas? You have other ideas, of course, better. Physical shells are just one of the ideas. Any problem can be solved as long as it solves the problem."

“In the early days of the squad, we had a weapon called the Arcane Pulser, which compressed the powerful Arcane energy into a converging device and then directed it out,” said Carmel. “It’s The essence is actually a bit like a huge arcane missile."
