"In the current situation, the Orrea Empire has withdrawn from two regions in order to suppress the stability of other regions. In this case, we can also use this to make arrangements."

"The secession missions of other countries do not require the use of more than a million troops to fight. We can mobilize support from other places. The first step involves the deployment of military forces in the remaining two regions of the empire and delays as much as possible. "

"Second, we can join forces with the orcs to attack Qingyuan from two directions at the same time. We must attack Qingyuan quickly, not only to eliminate the problem of detection equipment. If the battle goes well, we may even have a chance to control their Study the people who made the weapons to provide us with the same weapons.”

After hearing this target arrangement, everyone couldn't help but think a little.

If God's warriors from other places can be dispatched to help, the losses of such an attack will definitely be huge, but the benefits will also be very considerable.

Not only can you solve the problem of detection equipment, but you can also have the opportunity to master the same weapons and equipment.

They have also researched these weapons and equipment, and although they have imitated some, the effects and production scale are far from Qingyuan's level.

At the same time, the use of these weapons is almost a perfect adaption weapon for their gods. After the resurrection of the gods, their strength will be greatly reduced and they will not be strong and capable, so they need to win with numbers.

"If this arrangement fails, the two battlefields that will be related will not be the Northern Territory and the Northern Desert..."

At this time, someone still reminded him uneasily, but as the initiator, the gods were already prepared for this.

"If we fail on such a scale, the worst we can do is waste one or two rounds of rebirths. But for Qingyuan, I don't believe in such a scale attack. Even if they can withstand the pressure, their own losses will be like It’s very serious, and it will also be conducive to our next development arrangements.”

After weighing the pros and cons, the gods present were very optimistic about this plan.

After deciding on the plan, the gods began to make detailed deployment arrangements, tasks and plans.

Qingyuan City.

Since the imperial army withdrew from the Broken Vein Fortress, Gudern's life here has been a little more leisurely.

Although the orcs occupied the border cities along the way, they still left a buffer zone in the border areas near the Empire or Qingyuan Ridge. No cities or towns in this buffer zone were occupied.

In the face of Qingyuan weapons, the orcs have the most say. In order to avoid expanding their own casualties, keeping a distance is the best choice.

It was precisely this arrangement that kept Qingyuan in a war-free situation after the troops withdrew. The only interruption was the continuous influx of spies sent by the gods.

For these people, they were arrested without even looking at the gate of Qingyuan City.

After two months of construction and development, eight of the eleven cities in Qingyuanling have been connected to railway transportation, and more than 200 kilometers of roads suitable for trucks have been reconstructed and developed.

Under traffic control, the only option to enter Qingyuan City from other places is to take a train.

The roads along the way were blocked and vehicles were used instead. Anyone walking along the way would not be deported, but would be reviewed and detained and screened through normal procedures.

The optimization and improvement of roads have made interactions within Qingyuan Ridge faster. In addition to industrial construction in Qingyuan, planning arrangements have also begun in other cities.

After all, it is difficult to maintain the use of millions of people by relying solely on a clean industrial power.

Expansion is inevitable, and the people behind these things all have experience. For Gooden, now he only needs to read the reports every day, without too much intervention.

When the war situation is stable, Gooden's daily task, in addition to reading reports, is to go to the research institute to participate in research. Occasionally, when he has time, he goes to the Magic Academy to guest lecture as a teacher.

Aid and construction from the Empire and Hephros have basically been put in place, and the Magic Academy has enrolled more than 500 students since the start of the semester.

At the same time, knowledge transfer in normal schools is also underway, and so far more than nearly 10,000 students have been enrolled.

Gudern also attaches great importance to the basic education task, and has also planned and arranged the construction of schools in other cities and even small towns in the territory.

Although the number of nearly 10,000 people is a bit small for a territory with a population of millions, after the construction of other places is completed, this number will increase exponentially until all children in the territory can enter schools. Basic education.

The inheritance and transmission of knowledge is the most critical part of Qingyuan's rise, although it is also supported by the transformation of entries.

But with the passage of time and future construction and development, these people who have received education and inheritance will inevitably become the top pillars of Qingyuan.

After the daily attack and error handling was over, Gudern also made a rare change of his daily travel destination and went to the weapons field in the south of Qingyuan City.

Although the war has come to an end, the task of researching and upgrading will not stop. The development of mechas is too difficult, so the heavy firepower tasks of rapid mobile deployment are still reduced to vehicle-mounted weapons for the time being.

After the orcs' demon ban incident in the Broken Vein Fortress, Gudern also realized that pure magic weapons still have specific limitations.

Therefore, in the task of developing vehicle-mounted heavy weapons, a double mixed insurance of magic and gunpowder weapons was required, so that even after losing the power of magic, it could still meet the standard of continuing to fight.

Although this requirement is still a bit difficult, the existing research team has completed the research on this task.

Chapter 223 Chariots and tanks, power issues

The weapons testing site is in the same place as the training camp outside the city, but the training site faces west and the military camp faces east. There is an obvious warp fence separating the two areas.

In addition to weapons testing, the test site is also used for training. However, when new weapons need to be tested today, the site was temporarily requisitioned and cleared.

In the artillery field, three experimental vehicles are currently parked in the bunker of the artillery position.

Before Gudern arrived here, the military research institute and related personnel had already started preliminary experimental tasks here.

A team of more than a hundred people was testing and recording data for three vehicles. Gooden stood aside and just quietly watched the tests of each vehicle, without anyone accompanying him to explain.

The development of heavy vehicles such as armored vehicles or tanks is guaranteed by previous experience in manufacturing and developing magic cars, but the development process is almost entirely started from scratch.

Even with Gooden's 'technical' support, a lot of manpower and material resources were spent to build these three original models. When there was no production line to build, nearly 70 to 80 parts were hammered bit by bit by craftsmen. Made.

The cost of steel is no less than hundreds of tons. Such extravagant investment would have been unimaginable in Qingyuan in the past, but now the nearby mines have been connected to the railway tracks, and the finished steel smelted daily can reach It starts with more than 3,000 tons, and when the infrastructure tasks in various places are completed, it will not be a problem to break through the 10,000 mark.

Different vehicles were testing and calibrating their artillery in the test field. The huge roar of fire and the explosion of hits made Gudern who was watching on the side very satisfied.

The bodies of each of the three tanks are roughly similar, but they are still slightly different. They are all about seven to eight meters in length. Two tanks use crawler chassis, and one uses an 8X8 wheeled structure.

The tracked car body is divided into two structures. One is a rear turret filled with larger caliber howitzers as a vehicle support vehicle, while the other is set up as a middle turret structure. It's more like a tank but lighter in structure and not as heavy.

The three different car bodies also correspond to different uses. The rear turret model is an upgraded motorized artillery, which can more quickly and conveniently provide support artillery for the front line. The intermediate tracked car body is used as a flat-firing suppression artillery. Units can charge into battle at any time to provide effective bunker protection for infantry.

The assault vehicle with a wheeled structure can also be equipped with a turret to install artillery. Its function is to quickly deploy and maneuver, and to replace the turret with other multi-functional turrets according to subsequent needs to adapt to different tasks.

The design of the Military Research Institute is not just about studying the entire tank. Each vehicle body has different turret structure upgrades.

For example, a wheeled combat vehicle can not only be equipped with a 105 upgraded artillery, but can also be replaced with a multi-barreled 25mm cannon that has not yet been put into service. It can be used as a real infantry fighting vehicle, using metal storms for suppression, and at the same time, there is no The artillery takes up a huge amount of space, and the wheeled chariot can even be adjusted to create a carrying space for transporting troops.

Different models will be upgraded and manufactured later depending on the needs, and the current three vehicles are just initial templates. In addition to the rear turret equipped with a new howitzer, the other two vehicles are equipped with the 105 upgraded artillery turret for mission testing.

This 05 upgraded artillery was also designed and developed in accordance with Gooden's requirements. The entire artillery structure adopts a combination of magic artillery and field artillery. Different from the 75mm caliber of the two above, the upgraded artillery caliber is directly Reaching 105 mm, which is equivalent to the caliber of a howitzer.

Using a combination of two firing methods at the same time, the 105 upgraded artillery can not only fire magic shells, but can even fire charged shells.

However, allowing two different types of shells to be stored and carried in the turret, although it can carry a lot, will also reduce part of the ammunition storage capacity. The currently designed storage magazine can only carry a maximum of three groups of basic shells.

If you carry half of each type of shells, and when you encounter some cheap targets, you happen to run out of charged shells and have to use expensive magic shells, it will be very wasteful, and the storage capacity is also small. There is no such thing now. With a complete supply chain, the more shells a bicycle can carry, the better.

For this reason, the newly upgraded artillery uses new shells. Different from the previous one-piece shells, the shells fired are now divided into two parts. This separate shell is also the most critical place for the integration of the two firing methods. .

The artillery shell is divided into two parts: the warhead and the launching part. Normally charged artillery shells are overall slender, but more than 70% of the whole is used for launching gunpowder, which takes up a lot of space.

Magic cannonballs do not have this problem, so with the unremitting efforts of the research institute's staff, a magic firing unit was developed that can be loaded directly behind the killing part of the charged cannonball, directly saving a lot of space.

And it can still keep fighting. More importantly, the cost is calculated to be cheaper than gunpowder. After all, it is a one-time use item. It can be burned with wood, but for the sake of stability, iron was chosen.

The most indispensable thing in Qingyuan now is iron. Therefore, the cost of a firing unit is probably less than ten copper coins. The most important thing is that the space required for storing one hundred rounds of artillery shells can be stuffed. Transmitting unit module.

This saves a lot of space, but magic launch alone is not enough, charge launch is also necessary. For this reason, everyone in the design institute did not live up to expectations after some research, and came up with the need for a launch unit. It was cut in half compared to the previous structure.

When the charge is subtracted, the range will inevitably be weakened, but the performance on the test field shows that even with a structure halved, the maximum range of the artillery shell is still up to four kilometers.

Compared with the ten kilometers distance of the artillery, this distance seems a little insufficient, but you must know that the new weapons increase the quantity without increasing the price. The range is reduced, but the power is not affected but has been upgraded a lot. At the same time, the distance of four kilometers is in this era There is still ten insurmountable distances.

And with the help of the fusion of magic artillery, even when encountering extraordinary beings, under first-hand suppression, and when the opponent is careless, the outcome of both sides is 50-50.

After all, electromagnetic armor-piercing bullets have been recognized by the extraordinary people in Qingyuan. With an attack that exceeds the speed of sound, coupled with only elementary magic fluctuations, if a careless person is directly shot through, it is impossible to save him unless the gods show up.

At the same time, the 105 upgraded artillery also inherits the automatic loading advantage of the magic artillery. Although it cannot reach the speed of one round per second, it can still reach the speed of one round per three seconds, and it supports loaded shells.

With various upgrades, a 105-upgraded artillery turret can directly carry five and a half base shells, and the full load can reach 66. It is not an exaggeration to say that one vehicle can be an artillery position.

In addition to the upgrade of weapons, all three car bodies have dual-engine systems. The diesel engine is used as a backup power unit, which can support the vehicle to travel 100 kilometers, and the speed is not less than 80 kilometers per hour. This can also prevent even entering the forbidden area. Able to quickly evacuate from the magic area.

And with the help of magic technology, battery technology has also been born. Although it does not store much power, it has operational support that can support the tank for about five minutes.

Under such a triple guarantee, the fault tolerance of the chariot has been greatly improved. However, it is precisely because of the addition of various power equipment, even with the addition of magic technology, even the lightest wheeled chariot can be fully loaded with weight. Over nineteen tons.

The figure of nineteen tons is already an out-and-out steel behemoth in today's world.

As for a tank, its full load weight is more than 23 tons. For example, if the body of the rear artillery chassis is installed with the heaviest 155mm howitzer currently tested, the total vehicle weight can reach 35 tons, even if it is reduced. The weight of a caliber up to 122 mm must be more than 25 tons.

This kind of heavy monster support weapon will not directly enter the battlefield, but can be safely output from the rear, so it only needs to reach the standard of marching power and movement speed.

In addition to weapon and power upgrades, the three vehicles also add many magic functions, such as higher-level barrier magic, camouflage magic and other auxiliary magic help.

Moreover, because of its weight, the most important wheeled chariot can even be launched into water and cross rivers, making it an amphibious vehicle.

After the artillery fire of the three tanks in the test site roared for nearly more than an hour, the tanks and wheeled tanks stopped for target correction. With the driver's activation, the two vehicles entered the stage of cross-country mobile testing. .

The other self-propelled artillery is mainly to test the effect of precision attack, so today's test is just to fire the gun to correct these two tasks.

Gooden's tasks for today were basically completed, so he watched the entire test at the venue with great interest, and immediately obtained the data of each vehicle and the areas that needed to be changed.

The three reports were placed in front of him, and Gooden was very satisfied after reading them.

The degree of autonomy of the Military Research Institute can be said to be the most independent of the three major research institutes. They can arrange and optimize many small changes by themselves, and there is no need for him to worry about the arrangements.

"Master, the adjustment and modification tasks are expected to be completed within a week. The production task is expected to produce the first vehicle within half a month. The estimated production capacity is about two vehicles a day."

"In addition, research on other weapon modules is also continuing. According to your plan, it is expected to be completed before April and enter the testing phase."

Eden, who was in charge of military projects, gave Gooden his final summary.

Eden, who was later transferred to the blacksmith shop, is now the main person in charge of the Military Academy after revising his entries and being promoted.

His half-master, Buck, served as the dean of the Institute of Science and Technology, and the other Pansy went to the Academy of Magic to study magic, and was also responsible for some tasks within the Academy of Magic.

After Gudern learned about it here, he did not make any adjustments, but made arrangements for the next tasks.

"This part of the task has also entered the later stage of development. At that time, a group of suitable personnel will be selected to participate in the research task of the aircraft. This part of the task is also an important part of Qingyuan's subsequent development."

"The next focus of development, in addition to the task of upgrading weapons, needs to be all focused on aircraft."

"Okay...but Master..." Eden nodded slightly, and then continued with a slight headache.

"As for the power of the chariot, there are not so harsh conditions. It can be driven and run, but the aircraft cannot. After calculations by the personnel in the research institute, with the most advanced power engine in Qingyuan at present, even the lightest weapon can be developed. The new version of the aircraft cannot meet the standards for aircraft use, and if you want to develop a new engine, according to the current progress, it will take at least half a year to achieve the performance you need."

Faced with this question, Gudern thought for a while and asked.

"Is it a problem that the mechanical engine is not up to standard?"

"Yes, Master."

Although Qingyuan's technology is far ahead of other countries in Dawn Continent, it is still far behind some of the technologies that need to be implemented.
