- His Majesty's personal presence made the members of the Ordnance Research Department very excited.
In the test site outside Mingjing City, the sound of roaring artillery fire continued, blasting away the cannon targets set up in the distance one by one, showing the power and accuracy that satisfied Luo Ji.
Just now, the metal plate 300 meters away has been blown away by a bombardment quite accurately.
At that moment, all the members of the Ordnance Research Department present couldn't help cheering loudly.
This is a new breakthrough, which proves that the cannons of their Myriad Realms civilization have officially extended their effective range to 300 meters while ensuring their power and hit rate!
During the shelling test, the four metal plates that were blown away were quickly sent to Luo Ji one by one.
The surrounding members of the Ordnance Research Department headed by Ye Xuan also gathered around one after another, wanting to further confirm the power of the shelling.
These metal plates, when seen from a distance, are not very big, but when they are delivered to the eyes, they are found to be like small walls.
Among them, the metal plate standing one hundred meters away was undoubtedly the most damaged.
The entire metal plate has been pierced! At the same time, there are obvious cracks scattered around.
The piece at 200 meters was slightly penetrated.
The piece at 250 meters was not pierced, but the entire metal plate was also twisted and deformed.
The piece at the last 300 meters is obviously the most complete, but the surface has also been obviously deformed by the shells.
Exhaling a long breath, Luo Ji kicked the last metal plate, feeling the hard touch that came back. There is no doubt that Luo Ji is satisfied with the power of the cannon this time.
Three hundred meters away, the metal plate can be bombarded and deformed, and the destructive power it will cause to the city wall is definitely considerable.
"How stable is this cannon? How much is the production cost?"
Facing Luo Ji's question, Zhao Lei, the deputy director of the Ordnance Research Department who was waiting at the side, quickly handed over a document in his hand respectfully.
After turning two pages, Luo Ji frowned slightly.
This cost is really not cheap. Although it can be produced stably, the production cycle is obviously longer than that of the three-bow bed crossbow and the return gun.
At the same time, the value of gunpowder and shells, which are consumables, is obviously more than that of heavy crossbow bolts and stone shells of return guns
In short, one word, expensive!
Put these three siege equipment as firepower output together for comparison.
The three-bow bed crossbow undoubtedly has an advantage in range.
As for the return cannon, it is less advantageous. In terms of range, it is already half a catty.
At the same time, the attack trajectory of the return gun has an obvious large-arc parabola. In other words, in terms of accuracy control, it is not as good as the cannon, not to mention the power
After much deliberation, Luo Ji called Xuan Ye over.
"How much time will it take to increase the effective range of the cannon to more than 400 meters under the premise of ensuring power and accuracy?"
Facing this question, Michelle Ye's two willow leaf-like eyebrows frowned immediately.
"WellYour Majesty, this is really uncertain."
Well, Luo Ji also knows that this kind of thing does not mean that he can strengthen it if he wants to.
Researchers need inspiration and need to find a breakthrough.
After this experiment, maybe Michelle Ye suddenly had a flash of inspiration on the way back to the city, and she had another idea.
But it is also possible that a year and a half have passed without any movement.
And Luo Ji's current mood is also very complicated, he is afraid that Michelle Ye will not be inspired, and he is also afraid that Michelle Ye will suddenly have a flash of inspiration.
If he now gives an order to start mass production of cannons.
As a result, when I turned my head, only two or three months later, Michelle Ye's improved new model came out again.
Should Luo Ji cry or laugh?
This feeling is really a stomach ache.
Returning to the palace, Luo Ji, who was leaning against the political hall, struggled for a while, then slapped his thigh and made up his mind.
"Send an order to the Ordnance Department to stop the production of return guns and three-bow bed crossbows. As for the cannon"
Having said that, Luo Ji's voice paused, he was obviously calculating the numbers in his head now.
He has borders in the southeast, northwest, and four sides of the civilization of the myriad worlds, so why should he be equipped with six cannons, right? In addition, edgeFor the other cities in the area, in consideration of emergencies, at least four cannons must be equipped, and there are other cities, it is best not to fall behind.
In addition, the cannons brought during the expedition must also be counted
After suffering a headache for a while, Luo Ji rubbed his eyebrows and spoke slowly
"Wang Kai, you go to the Ordnance Manufacturing Department yourself, and ask them to go to the Research Department to get the design drawings, and start manufacturing the latest cannons from today. As for the quantity, let them make a hundred cannons first, and at the same time, Go to Goblin Technology and let them research a cost-reduced version."
"The humble post takes orders!"
After Wang Kai responded, he walked quickly towards the outside of the palace.
Luo Ji undoubtedly valued this batch of cannons.
In order to wait for this batch of cannons, he deliberately settled down for a while.
Not seeing Luo Ji intruding in for several months, not only did John Sal not feel much relaxed, but the pressure on his body became stronger than before.
He knew in his heart that Luo Ji had already figured out all the information on the borders around him, and the other side hadn't moved for a long time, so they must be preparing for something.
This feeling is bad for the invaded party.
While thinking about it, John Sal gritted his teeth and made a decision
System prompt: Europa player 'John Thrall' is invading your civilization!
Hearing this system prompt, Luo Ji frowned.
In the next second, it was clear in my heart.
John Sal is here to get his bottom line? In other words, he wanted to see what kind of tricks he had been up to in the past few months.
Even if you can't figure it out, it's good to confuse Luo Ji a little bit and distract him.
In short, I just don't want him to develop quietly.
But how could Luo Ji let him get what he wanted?
Just like when he invaded the dwarven civilization before, he mainly collected information and basically didn't do anything real.
Like this kind of tentative battle, the threat to his border is extremely limited, and there is nothing to fear at all.
If John Sal wants to fight, let him fight.
Luo Ji, who is located in the main city, just continue to work on his development.
Anyway, this kind of battle, as the defender of the city, he will definitely not suffer.
As for whether John Sal will suddenly attack with all his strength?
impossible! This is a cautious person. Before he has figured out what Luo Ji wants to do, he will not take the risk of losing troops and destroying the border of civilizations in the world!
