Release that Witch

166. Chapter 166, the eve of the final battle

    On the fifth day of the appointment, Roland was finally ready to make all the raw materials for the fire cotton.

    In the case of electrolyzed brine, he also had a serious leak, using Anna to cut the remaining copper strips as electrodes, resulting in the electrode being dissolved, wasting a basin of salt water – due to electrolysis, in order to avoid chlorine dissolved in water, electrolysis The liquid is generally saturated with saline, and salt is not a cabbage price in this era. Therefore, when dumping the waste brine that was mixed with copper ions and causing the accumulation of impurities, Roland felt that he had thrown away several gold royals in vain, and finally solved the problem by replacing the electrodes with carbon rods.

    After causing the oil to be removed by boiling with caustic soda and water to obtain a cotton gauze, he took the remaining caustic soda to the chemical laboratory.

    The esterification of cotton wool is the most important step in the production process. The principle is unclear. It is only known that the gauze is soaked in the mixed acid solution and can be taken out after the nitrification is completed. The solution ratio and reaction time are unknown. Roland divided the Cam into several groups to test, using the hourglass control time, the small gauze after soaking was repeatedly washed with water, then soaked in sodium hydroxide solution to react excess acid, and the wet finished product was transported back to the castle and handed over to Wendy. Air dried.

    Since the higher concentration of fuming nitric acid is used in the esterification, most of the test articles can be quickly ignited, and one part of the nitric acid soaked in the sulfuric acid has the best effect. After getting a rough formula, the lab started mass production – the fired cotton that was soaked and washed was immediately taken away by the First Army soldiers, and even the chief alchemist didn’t know what they were doing.

    The dried gauze was cut into nail-sized squares by the maids, sent to the Northern Slope Mountain, and finally filled in the backyard of the firing room. In the absence of a machine-placed situation, this process can only be done by manpower. Dissipate the personal guard and disperse it. Gently rub the glued gauze with a wooden stick into the bottom of the ammunition case, seal the ignition hole, and then pour the granular black gunpowder into the ammunition case with a funnel. , each load is as consistent as possible.

    The final step is to press the warhead. The warhead and the ammunition case that Anna has machined are extremely high. After pushing it in, it can be tapped with a hammer for a few times.

    The efficiency is low, and a hundred bullets can be produced in one day. By the sixth day, Carter finally used the new body of the complete body. As the body of the body is quite excellent, Chief Knight, his shooting rate has been greatly improved after repeated practice over a few days, compared to the performance of Roland military training, it is completely different.

    After changing the bullets, Carter finally had to hold the gun with a strange gesture of sagging his wrist. As long as the sealing sponge did not rupture, the shell would be kept clean and its sensitivity to Mars was black gunpowder. Several times, the firing rate is also guaranteed.

    On the last day, Roland asked Carter Lannis to practice quick-pulling and double-gun shooting. The 12mm caliber pistol, even with the black gunpowder, has a very good recoil. It is difficult to guarantee the second shot with a single handgun. In Roland’s plan, this was accidentally countered by Ash’s back.

    Carter will carry a double gun go on stage. If the tug of war is used, ten bullets will be enough to win the game. If it is close after the opening, he can quickly pull out another gun to counterattack. Moreover, considering that the other’s weapon has certain defensive capabilities, the ten rounds of Roland deliberately chose a steel warhead that is not easily deformed, which increases the penetrating power and reduces the lethality of the cavity. In addition to the smelting technology of this era, Ash’s big sword is in all likelihood. Pig iron is melted – the exaggerated shape does not bring qualitative improvement, on the contrary, the bulky iron weapon is not fully forged. Hit, the internal stress distribution is more uneven, can not be called a good shield. According to Roland’s point of view, the big sword top counts the whiteboard weapon, and if the luck is not particularly bad, the possibility of jumping is very low.

    Ash wants to beat Carter, he must first be close to Knight, which is a natural disadvantage of the cold weapon to Firearm. As long as there is no exaggeration to visualize the Orbit and the bullets, this distance is an insurmountable gap.

*******************

    It wasn’t until the sky was getting late, Ash waited for Macy to fly back to the room.

    “How come back in the next few days, how late is it?”She closed the window and asked.

    “Lightning took me to catch the birds,” Macy changed back to the human form, taking a roasting bird’s leg out of his pocket, and the overflowing scent suddenly filled the room. “I left it for you.”

    “I have eaten,” Ash shook his head. “Is Lightning the witch of the Operations Association?”

    “Well,” she nodded hard. “The ability is the same as me, but it is also flying, but it is much easier to use.”After a pause, she then asked, “Sister Ash, do you have to play this game?” which, I realize, is notThey won’t go with you, and they live well here. ”

    Ash has no choice but no answer.

    “Because I even want to stay here,” Macy sat down on the bed and said to himself, “The bed is soft and the food is rich.” When I saw lunch, the feudal lord set the table in the backyard and ate with the finished witches. Everyone is talking and laughing. He occasionally inserts two sentences, which is completely different from other noble hateful appearances. In the afternoon, I was also pulled by Lightning to play the Gwent card. It was the two players who took ten cards and compared each other. The final victory was very interesting. They also sent me two sets of cards, Ash sister, are you going to play? I teach you. ”

    NoAsh shook his head and took a deep breath. For several days Macy’s changes she also noticed, but until now, she suddenly realized that her thoughts seemed to fall into a misunderstanding.

    Most of the witches are stealing in the days of fear and uneasiness. A stable and comfortable place to live is what they pursue. Macy, for example, has been hiding in the thatched cottage of the Kingdom Capital slum before being accepted by Tilly. Like a real bird, it swells through the slits of the roof beam to spend every night. Even though Tilly decided to cross the sea eastward, Macy was also rushing around, contacting the hidden folk witches, and had not stopped for half a year. For such a comfortable and peaceful life, she is probably the first to experience.

    Why isn’t it true? It wasn’t until she met Tilly that she lived a life she didn’t dare. She is used to the relatively quiet life of the palace, ignoring the meaning of small town for this group of witches – the attraction of the destination, has always been unparalleled in the eyes of the witch. They want to stay here, want to guard the mood of this territory, probably just like they want to guard Tilly…

    If Roland Wimbledon can really resist the crazy God Punishment Army as he said, there is no doubt that it is a better choice than a fjord – to build a country of witches in a completely strange land, it sounds like a yearning, But how many hardships actually suffer, no one can predict.

    But if he can’t resist, should the witches leave?

    Ash’s mood suddenly calmed down.

    Think differently. If Tilly can’t stand on the fjord, I would rather choose to stand by her and guard her to the last moment. As a person who gives her a home, she does not have the reason to leave first.

    “It’s always under the threat of Church’s, and it’s not going to stop the God Punishment Army. It’s a matter of time before the Border Town is destroyed.”

    This comparison is indeed unnecessary…However, she still decided to complete it, in order to wake up, or to prove.

    “If they can block it?”Macy muttered.

    “I hope so, so I will help them verify this.”Ash whispered.

    She closed her eyes and prepared for her best.
