Orc Tyrant

Chapter 46: Cannon casting is a technical job

Gunpowder is available, so naturally there must be weapons to use it. Guns are not very rare for Guk. He has seen the effect of human armies using guns to fight. It looks dazzling, but the actual effect is blind (to Ouke In terms of), and it’s troublesome to play, it’s better to let the boys use this weapon than to give them a stick, so even though there are so many guns on hand, Guk doesn’t intend to imitate it.

His center of gravity is on the cannon, and at least it looks simple to build. It's nothing more than a big pipe. The only thing he needs is a lot of iron.

For this reason, Guk began to frantically search for the scrap iron in the territory. He asked his guards to go to every camp and retrieve all the metal that could be seen. As for the original smelting workshop, that little output was poor. Just enough to satisfy the most basic weapon manufacturing, Guk didn't intend to let the boys fight with bare hands for the cannon.

After sitting on five strongholds, Guk has become the overlord in the true sense of the sinister wasteland. His territory occupies one-third of the entire wasteland, and the resulting quantitative effect is extremely terrifying. Every day countless kids join his kingdom either passively or actively, and the number of Ouke is exploding exponentially.

With just two simple screenings, the White Helmet Guards around Guk have changed from the original 3,000-plus to the current nearly 20,000-both, and they are still growing. These strongest and most capable boys are formed. The most elite force of the Ouke Kingdom, in order to place these guards, Guk had to drive away most of the boys in the Blackstone Fort, because the Blackstone Fort was also called the White Helmet Fort by the boys.

Being able to live in is something worth showing off.

The bigger the turf, there will be more things. Guk has to bother to build guns while also solving internal problems, although generally speaking, he doesn't care about anything, and the Ouke society has its own rules. But like Gerak looking for Beiruf’s trouble every day, Naz fights with Green Teeth all day long (Guke doesn’t know how they meet each other), he always has to take care of it, otherwise he really fights. He couldn't find a replacement if he died.

As the days passed, Guk spent most of his time in the workshop. The boys had already debated whether their boss was a big-skilled boss or a war boss. Fortunately, there were not many people who knew that he was a perverted boy. Otherwise, the debate will become more intense.

For the casting of the first gun, Agum used mud as a mold, but the result was very bad. The muzzle was quite big, and the muzzle was able to fill a kid’s head, but the gun body was twisted and crooked. Yes, Guk seriously doubted the consequences of firing this thing.

There was nothing wrong with the first test, but when Guk asked for the second time, something went wrong.

The artillery named "Booming the Sky" exploded very decisively and almost killed Aghem. The broken iron skin was found hundreds of meters away. There is no doubt that Aghem’s method was problematic.

"Boss, do you think this will work? Make a few sections, and then put them together!"

The idea guy came up with another idea. Many boys thought it was feasible. Gu Ke thought about it. Although human cannons are not like this, it is okay to keep them out of order.

"Then do it."

The boys rushed immediately, melting the scrap iron, and casting the segmented cannons with molds. This time they were still using clay molds.

Guk and Agum measured the dimensions in a complicated way to prevent them from failing to fit together. After the mold cracked and could be peeled off, they took out the casted segmented gun body and polished it to drill the fire door.

After more than ten consecutive days of hard work, a decent cannon was built. This big guy named "Sledgehammer" is three times larger than its original model, and its bare body is nearly 4 meters long. It's long and bulky so that Guk feels a bit too much.

"Okay."

Guk carefully checked the sledgehammer round, and it didn't have that many eyes at all, and the barrel was smoother, and it didn't seem to explode so easily.

"Try it."

With an order, the boys moved the cannon outside, and then stuffed enough Guk gunpowder and new cannonballs.

Bang~!

In the end, Guk was very disappointed. The shell was like a fart who hadn't eaten enough. It flew out two or three hundred meters and was planted in the sand. There was no power at all.

"Increase the dose!"

This time, more Guk gunpowder was stuffed into the barrel, and the boys were hiding far away for fear of hurting themselves.

boom!

With a loud noise, strong green smoke enveloped the entire cannon, and a pile of bones not far away was splashed by huge shells, and the distance did not seem to increase much.

Guk took a closer look and found that the imaginary blast had not occurred, but huge cracks appeared in the joints of the segmented gun bodies. This scheme was obviously not feasible.

"The tightness is not good, and the gas leak is serious."

A few unidentified technical words popped out of his mouth, and Gu Ke shook his head and returned to the workshop. The boys scratched their heads and began to think about new ways.

Until a certain day.

"I can use iron if I think about it."

Guk pondered for a long time, and suddenly came up with a new plan, a new idea he grabbed from the whirlpool of thinking.

He asked the boys to cast several iron molds, each iron mold was divided into three pieces, and then each iron mold was joined together successively, narrow in the front and thick in the back. After inserting the core, the molten iron was cast, and it can be removed after a little shape. Mold.

"well!"

Looking at the giant cannon that was still in red heat, but the body was very smooth and flat, Gu Ke nodded in satisfaction, and then, despite the heat, took the drill bit and started to drill the fire door on the cannon body.

After the fire gate was drilled, the whole cannon had almost cooled down, and the mechanics squeezed up to watch the brand new cannon.

"I think it works!"

Aghem touched the cannon body and was immediately retracted from the heat, but he made no secret of his admiration for it.

The whole gun is in the shape of a bottle, with a narrow mouth and wide back. The caliber is nearly twice that of a human 12-pound field gun, and the length is more than 3 meters. In order to cast this gun, Guk spent a lot of iron. In order to prevent the gun from being exploded, he deliberately increased the gun. The thickness of the tube comes at the cost of a soaring weight, but he has the vigorous camel beast like the Skug behemoth, so he doesn't have to worry about the gun being too heavy.

"When it gets cold, try it."

Guk found a place to lie down at random. The past few days can be regarded as exhausting. Other artisan boys are also looking for sleep. The originally busy workshop becomes quiet again. Only the farts secretly follow him from time to time. Get out of the ground and take away some gadgets.

He didn't wake up until the sun was westward, when the brand new cannon had also cooled down.

"Boy, it's up to you."

He flicked the sturdy gun body with his fingers, and the crisp metal sound made Guk particularly happy. He asked the boys to install the big guy on the gun stand, put on two wheels and push it to the outside test field.

"so much."

Guk personally installed the medicine packet and handed it to the mechanic boy who fired the gun.

"ready!"

All the steps were completed in order. At the moment when the gunman pulled the rope, all Ok's hearts were raised in his throat.

"Go!"

Boom~!

The cannon roared full of power, and the fire was gushing out from the muzzle along with green smoke. The huge recoil caused the entire gun mount to retreat by half a meter. Everyone in the room felt that his eardrum was pulled by a hammer. .

Before all the boys came back to their senses, a cloud of smoke suddenly rose up on the sand dunes a kilometer away, and this distance was far beyond the two cannons made before.

"Come again! Add medicine!"

Guk was not excited because of the first success, he calmly issued a new order, and the boys quickly put more Guk gunpowder into the pill bag.

boom!

There was another loud noise, this time the cannonball flew farther, but the cannon shook harder.

"Plus!"

Guk decided to try the limit of this gun.

Experiment after experiment, watering was used to speed up the cooling of the artillery, until the amount of medicine was doubled in the first time, the artillery finally couldn’t bear it, and it exploded a big hole in the harsh crackling sound. At this time, the maximum range is close to two kilometers.

"It's done! Hahaha!"

He finally got the heavy firepower he dreamed of, and Guk laughed happily. The gray skin had been smoked to be colorful, but the joy of making good things was more comfortable than having a fight. Maybe this is the skill. The reason why the tyrants would rather squat in the workshop than to fight.

Perhaps from the eyes of humans, this cannon made of scrap iron is primitive and crude, but like all Ouke’s weapons, anyone who underestimates it will pay a huge price.

"Follow this in the future."

Guk decided to manufacture this artillery in large quantities. The iron mold can also be used multiple times, and the efficiency is much faster than that of the clay mold.

But reality gave him a great.

"Head, that..."

The idea guy froze for a long time, and didn't say anything.

"Boss, I'm almost using iron."

Aghem was outspoken, but didn't notice that Guk's face had changed.

"How can it be so fast!"

Guk grabbed the hapless mechanic boy and shook it vigorously.

"Old, boss...you forgot."

Agham stammered in explanation.

"A few days ago, Grak said he was going to get some armors for the boy, and got some away. Beruf said that he lacked weapons and got some away, and..."

Before he could finish speaking, Guk released his hand and let him sit back on the ground.

"Those guys..."

Of course Guk hadn't forgotten, but at that time he was busy thinking about casting the cannon. He didn't notice what the thieves were talking about, but just nodded casually.

"Mangul!"

"Here, boss!"

The chief guard ran over with a roasted sand lizard leg.

"No one is allowed to touch the iron here without my order in the future! There are other things! No matter who it is, just cut it if you dare to move!"

"Yes!"

After an estimate, there are probably two or three cannons left in the metal. Guk plans to slightly expand the scale of the smelting workshop, but he thinks this matter is of little significance and it is too slow to take effect.

"Boss, I know where there is a lot of iron."

A mechanic boy came up, he came from the blood skull tribe.

"Say."

"There is a guy named Jinya who used to exchange things with Naz. He has everything there."

"Gold Tooth?"

There is no such guy in Guk's memory, and he is obviously not a famous boss.

"That tribe?"

"I remember that they called themselves poisonous water from... the sea."

"seaside……"

Guk has heard of the [sea] thing. It is said that it is this thing to the west of the blood skull. It looks the same as water but cannot be drunk.

"Where is Naz now?"

"Boss, he just returned to Blackstone Fort yesterday."

Mangul knew everything that happened in the fortress. Guke heard him there and asked the White Helmet to look for him, saying that he was going to see him soon.
