Release that Witch

567. Chapter 567 Flowering Bomb!

    Neverwinter City, on the outskirts of the West Wall.

    The huge roar has attracted many people to climb the wall to take the lead. The First Army has blocked the entrance to Hidden Forest to prevent people from breaking into the test site.

    Although the location is far from the city wall, with the telescope, you can clearly see what happened here. It seems that I have to find a remote place as a dedicated arms test base in the future, Roland thought.

    “Your Majesty, the second round of launch is ready!”The gun soldiers reported.

    “Everyone goes into the bunker,” he waved. “Recognize no one and count down.”

    It is now the 152mm howitzer test – while studying the magic stone Sigil, Roland has not put down the heat weapon aspect. Now that Timothy has been wiped out, Northern Lands has returned, Greycastle is in a good situation, and he has worked hard to make a new round of improvements to the shells.

    However, it must be said that the howitzer with the trigger fuze is technically more difficult than the solid bomb. Anna will manually make four shells for testing every day. The result is three days down, and no shells have exploded. Even on the second day of testing, a shell was blown out of the way and the new cannon tube used for testing was smashed. Fortunately, Roland was prepared to dig a few trenches around the test site to prevent accidents, causing no casualties. The soldiers who were closest to cannon were shattered by the eardrum and were cured by Nana.

    “Is this thing really like you said, when you hit an enemy, it will explode?”Agatha stood in the trench and couldn’t help but walk on the foot. “I asked Anna, it is made up of several pieces of metal, not a living body. How can you tell if the other is an enemy?”

    She is the most active witch in the league for the weapon test. After learning about this, even the production of the chemical plant was temporarily put aside, and she made a special trip to observe the research progress of the new projectile.

    “It’s not an enemy, but an enemy’s position that will explode,” Roland corrected. “This is also a requirement that the howitzer must meet—if there is no insurance to ensure this, the shells may go away at any time. That would be too dangerous.”

    Triggering insurance is the core technology of the new projectile and the focus of the test.

    In order to avoid collisions, missed hands and caused a false explosion, he painstakingly set up a total of three insurance.

    The first is that the fuze and the projectile are separated and stored and transported until they are installed on site. The fuse is shaped like a cone with a handle, almost the size of the fist, with a thread at the end, and can be screwed into the slot at the top of the projectile during installation. Fast and convenient. Since the shells are loaded with double-base chemical gunpowder, it is difficult to detonate without the situation of the ****, which fundamentally guarantees the safety of the logistics work.

    Followed by inertia insurance in the fuse.

    It is similar to the door lock. Under normal conditions, it is held by a hard spring. It cannot move. When the projectile is launched, the huge inertia will cause the lock cylinder to sit back, thus overcoming the resistance of the spring to open the latch and release the second pass.

    The principle is very simple, but it is not easy to achieve, the first two days are basically spent on this – if the spring is too hard, the lock core can not sit back enough distance, the spring is too soft and not safe enough, this can only rely on Anna slowly adjusted according to the test shot, and a more reliable spring compression data was obtained after eight rounds of testing.

    The last insurance is the centrifugal device.

    It is also the most technical thing in the fuse. In simple terms, it is embedded in a coin-sized semi-circular iron plate, which is usually placed obliquely in the center of the fuse and fixed by a spring. At this moment, the needle, the ****, and the stimulating medicine are not in a straight line. Even if the shell falls from a high place, the striker does not touch the ****, avoiding the risk of fire. The iron plate is only movable after the second tooth has been removed from the lock.

    Due to the action of the barrel of the barrel, the shrapnel will spin at a very high speed. Under the action of the centrifugal force, the tilting **** will gradually return to the positive, similar to the rotating gyro, the center of gravity will move closer to the central axis. . This process is completed approximately two or three hundred meters after the exit, so that even if the muzzle is blocked or the branches are covered, the warhead will not explode in advance.

    When the **** is completely back, it forms a straight line with the striker and the stimulating medicine. At this time, once the fuze touches the ground, the striker will plung into the ****, and then the gunpowder will be heated by the stimulating medicine. The jets are used to the warhead’s warhead, tearing the enemies around them into pieces.

    The advantage of centrifugal insurance is that if the shell is misfiring, the **** that loses the centrifugal force will be turned back to the original position by the spring, and it will become inclined again, so the recycling work is much safer.

    In addition, if the entire grenade is captured by the enemy or accidentally picked up, it will be launched in a conventional manner. If it cannot obtain sufficient centrifugal force, it can only be used as a solid projectile. As for the dismantling of the imitation, it is even more impossible.

    “Ready to launch, count down five times!”

    The observer issues a password.

    The ropes that have been lengthened several times are slowly tightened, and the gunners hiding in the trenches recover the ropes a little.

    Fire

    As the soldiers slammed, the ground shook.

    The violent muzzle wind accompanied the roar of sweeping across the head of the scene, and Roland felt that a lot of tiny particles had rolled into his collar. Even if you block your ears, you can feel the tremors from your feet.

    “Observed the drop, no explosion, repetition, no explosion.”

    Listening Sigil in the hands of Nightingale quickly heard the sound of Lightning.

    “Know it, we will pass right away.”She pulled out another magic stone back.

“……Has it failed? ”Agatha is a bit frustrated.

    “Failure is normal when you are groping,” Anna comforted. “Once we find the right direction, we can ensure that we no longer fail in mass production.”

    “That’s right,” Roland patted her head with approval. “And with the help of Asia and Silvy, the development has been amazing.”

    In the afterlife, the grenade’s stereotype test is not a problem with thousands of hairs. It is no different from the fantasy story to find the problem within two or three.

    When the bullet landed, Anna first cut off the fuse with a black fire to ensure that the warhead was safe, and then the soldiers took away the waste bombs—whether gunpowder or metal bullets—can be reused, naturally not wasted.

    “Asia, it’s up to you.”Roland gestured.

    “Yes, Your Majesty,” she nodded and showed her replay ability. In an instant, a phantom of a shell that was about to fall on the ground appeared in front of everyone.

    Asia’s magic power level is still low, and it can only support four replays after several months of training, but by precisely controlling magic power, she is now able to freeze the replayed picture at a certain moment.

    And this kind of playback is perfect for re-enacting the scene. In other words, Silvy’s perspective can see the inside of the illusion – except that it can’t be touched, it is no different from the real scene.

    This is how Roland solved the problem of spring strength with only eight rounds of shooting.
