Chapter 578 (1/2)
”This thing itself is within the plan. Only equipped with artillery can you be a complete forever warship. After training for so long, you can't hold back in the inland river. Endless sea is your future development direction.” Sean said with a smile, ”but in the sea, we are not without enemies. According to accurate information, the third fleet of the Commons family is likely to stay in the open sea. Even if some warships are damaged, the number of other warships will be higher than us, especially those fearless warships, but the four masted schooners will be bigger.”
”In the old mode of naval warfare, the bigger the size, the better the advantage. However, with artillery, the bigger the size is not necessarily the best, especially when the firepower is not proportional to each other.” ”If the third fleet of the Commons family is still in the open sea, it is there waiting to send US warships. If possible, my explorers fleet doesn't mind annexing all their third fleet.”
”You can't be more confident.” Sean nodded. ”You still have two months of final preparation time. Next spring, you will be able to sail out to sea, and give you a year to explore all the offshore conditions around the desperate swamp.”
”Make sure you get the job done.” Captain Aquino said in a loud voice.
”Let's all sit down and talk about the harvest of this actual battle and see if there is room for improvement. Who will come first?” Sean asked.
”I'll go first.” ”I think the ballistics we are using now has a big problem. It is too complicated. It not only requires high personal knowledge of soldiers, but also is very troublesome to use on the battlefield. If the preset battlefield is OK, if we encounter encounter encounter, the opponent will be killed before we measure the accurate trajectory.”
Naturally, ballistics is indispensable for artillery, but they complement each other.
Yongye's ballistics didn't start with artillery. When the artillery were auxiliary engineers, they began to study it when they used catapults and catapults as their main weapons.
This is a calculus calculation problem. If we know the force, weight, gravity and air resistance, we can calculate the distance of the projectile. Even if there is no Rune mathematics of President Abner, we can solve this problem only with the mathematical knowledge of Sean's previous life. The most troublesome problem is the world's gravity and air resistance. In order to measure this, we have to spend a lot of thought and effort Qi.
Even if the gravity and air resistance calculated by them are 100% accurate, Sean and they can't bite it completely. They can only say that it's eight to nine, and it's just for use.
Before the gun is launched, ballistics is only an aid, whether the catapult or catapult can hit the target or not depends on luck to a great extent.
After all, there is a big gap between the force used by the catapult's Crossbow arm and the shape and weight of the ammunition itself. Even if their ballistic calculation is accurate and the basic force used during launching is not accurate, it will be a thousand miles away.
Most of the time, the catapult and catapult rely on experience. The accuracy of an experienced operator of a catapult and catapult is absolutely not comparable to that of a beginner.
After the gun was launched, the importance of ballistics increased rapidly.
Both the barrel and the ammunition are produced on the industrial production line. When the suspension difference is not more than g, whether it is the charge weight or the weight, many quantities will be fixed naturally, and it is easier to calculate their impact point.
However, this kind of accurate calculation requires a lot of consideration, and requires the ability of quick calculation. It requires a high quality of soldiers, at least graduates from college town.
Even so, the ballistics they use is at most elementary level.
”Is there any good suggestion from commander dempus?” Sean asked curiously.
”good advice is not a good idea. It can only be said as an assumption, but if it can succeed, it has the final say of the Lord.” Chief Dempster's answer was very conservative.
, ”listen to me. How can I has the final say?” Sean's curiosity was seduced.
”Lord, if you can design a combat technique to accurately measure the distance, why not design a one-step ballistic combat technique according to our gun type and ammunition weight? At that time, those artillery just need to drop a combat skill, they can easily measure the trajectory, and then save time and effort. ” Commander dempus threw his ideas out.
”Ballistics and war skills?” Because they have ballistic skills that can be measured, Sean didn't really think in this direction when shaping artillery combat skills. It should not be so difficult, just put all kinds of known conditions into it and quickly calculate the results.
Sean gently buckled the table and said: ”this is just something I didn't think of before. It should not be too difficult. However, once the combat skills are formed, it will mean that it is very rigid. At that time, we must use certain gun types and certain shells. Our army leaders have a single type of artillery and shells. This method is still applicable to some extent. When the number of both guns increases, it is normal Ballistics is the future trend. ””Of course I know that, but this ballistics can be used as a temporary supplementary means to increase the real-time combat effectiveness of these artillery troops, and it's also good to learn the conventional ballistics slowly. It's a two pronged approach, and the effect is faster.” Commander dempus is obviously a man who knows how to think. When he pays attention to his fighting skills, he is obviously well thought out.
”Now that the regiment commander has considered this comprehensively, when I have time to study it, I will see if I can work out the corresponding gun types and the ballistics of shells.” Sean gave full affirmation to the other side and said, ”this is a very good idea. If you can really get the ballistics and combat skills out, the artillery will be able to operate the artillery faster. Good. Do you have any other suggestions?”
”Not for the time being.” Commander dempus shook his head. Even after two wars, he was still searching for new weapons like mortars, which indeed exposed many problems. However, these problems can be improved through follow-up training. Unlike the war skills, which need the cooperation of the Lord, there is no need to raise them on such occasions.
”And master Baker? Did you get anything this time? ” Sean turned his attention to the real technicians.
Artillery, as a new branch of arms, relies on equipment to an unprecedented height. How much combat effectiveness they can play is only a small part, mainly in weapons, that is, the maker of Baker.
Not only Sean knew this, but the others in the room knew it, and their eyes turned to Baker.
”It's true that there are many gains, especially the power of special ammunition. It's really unexpected. We can increase the research in this field in the future, but it involves the use of energy. We are amateurs in the end, and we need warlocks to come out. It's said that the Lord specially assigned two warlocks to study architecture with Mr. Ferdinand. Can you We can't choose between one and the other. How can our firearm bureau be regarded as a large department and a core unit? At least ten warlocks should be assigned to us as special ammunition research personnel? ” Master Baker is a man of the word.
”We are talking about this experience. How can we ask for scientific researchers from me? You and director Tobias are worthy of being an old partner, even if you are a VIP. ” Sean was a little surprised and finally said with a smile.
Master Baker solemnly replied, ”our firearm bureau is short of warlocks and craftsmen. This is one of my biggest experiences this time. We need technical support from the firearm Bureau in the future. We can't always find the Lord to solve this problem? As long as a few warlocks are allocated to us, I can guarantee that there will be sufficient progress in special ammunition and artillery forging. ”
”Well! You win. When you have time, you can go to the northern fortress to select people. Ten warlocks are impossible. There are only a few students in the whole warlock academy! Five of you will be allotted at the most Sean haggled.
”Thank you, Lord.” Becker is very happy.
Even if Baker doesn't mention it, Yongye army leader will increase the research on the technique and shell, and even find a way to carry out industrial production. It is always not a matter to decompose the energy of the technique by manpower.
Even rechargeable gems have to find cheaper alternatives, even if it's cheaper jade, it's jade.
