Release that Witch

81. Chapter 81 Salvage Training

    Every day, this kind of training will last for two to three hours. When he is finished, he will return to the city wall and continue to do his old business. The guys in the same dormitory signed up for the firearms team, and now they are carrying new guns and standing behind them to show off. Van’er couldn’t wait to sew his mouth if it wasn’t for disciplinary requirements.

    But he also saw something wrong.

    Joining the folks of the firearms team for a few days? I started to temper my shooting skills in the battle with Evil Beast’s, and the artillery team? I didn’t even shoot a shell. And, so sinken cannon, simply imported to the wall.

    Look at the top of the wall. The two people stand side by side and almost fill the aisle. Usually, everyone is used to running on the slope inside the wall. Even if it is steep, it is better than hindering the teammates to do the lance. As for cannon…The two wheels are lighter than the top of the wall, and the shooting is still downwards.

    Could it be…This thing is not used to deal with Evil Beast’s?

    The next exercise confirms Van’er’s conjecture.

    Four artillery teams were brought to the river by Iron Axe. He found that I didn’t know when there was a huge “boat” in the Scarlet Water River! NoHe is not sure if this is a ship. The outer casing looks no different from the stone that builds the city wall. It is wide and short. Except for the two bare masts, where is the ship? For this reason Van’er’s team is still arguing.

    “This is a floating bridge,” the first to decide is Jop. He used to go to Longsong Stronghold with a sailing boat. He often boasted a lot of knowledge. “The deck with a few feet wide is obviously for stability! I have seen the South in the north, and if it is a ship, how can I move without the wind? In the past, the river had been flooded with water, and the wooden bridges in the stronghold were washed away for more than a decade. The people in the city were replaced by floating bridges. They made a bunch of wide planks nailed to the boat, and then pulled up the iron cables into a row. How to get steady! ”

    “The farthest place I have ever been is Longsong Stronghold, and I’m still going north,” Rodney smirked. “If you want to float bridge, you need two masts, for fear that you won’t be blown away by the wind?”

    “And you look at the end, isn’t the steering wheel placed horizontally? Floating bridge is not available for this. ”Nelson helped me, their two brothers were always out of a nostril. “In addition, the arrangement of the middle wooden frame seems to be a shed, but it has not yet been completed. This is a ship, no doubt. ”

    Van’er is not interested in whether it is a ship or not. He only cares about the next training content. The answer was quickly revealed, and Iron Axe asked them to catch the horses dragging the guns to HMS Little Town – yes, the name of the ship, or the Prince himself named himself. After listening to Iron Axe’s introduction, Jop suddenly faced a stiff face, and the two brothers were proud – then tied the cannon wheel to the reserved block.

    There are two groups of such blocking rods, four in each group, which are located on the center line of the deck and are arranged one after the other. Obviously you can load two cannons at a time.

    Ok, Van’er thinks, this is ok, they are not dealing with Evil Beast – Scarlet Water River flows from north to south, and there is no such a spacious river in Hidden Forest.

    When he first stepped on the deck, Van’er immediately felt its outstanding stability. The river flows through the hull, and the stone ship does not move as if it is standing on the ground. Only when the horses are caught up will they feel a little swing.

    He also noticed that whenever a group of artillery completes a round-trip practice, Iron Axe will record the time. Linking to the blocking bar on the deck, it seems that only two groups of the four groups can come in handy. Van’er secretly told the group members that the news was immediately enough, and each step used 10% of the effort. If you can’t choose to be kicked back to the pike team, it’s still a small matter to face the face, and the salary increase is gone, but it’s a big deal!

    On the seventh day, Van’er finally ushered in the long-awaited live-fire training.

    On this day, His Royal Highness also visited the scene and watched the artillery practice. The four groups of people all had their chests high, and they walked up to the ground.

    Since everyone who has filled the ammunition has been familiar with it, the first shot was quickly started by the Van’er team.

    This is also the first time he witnessed the power of cannon. In the deafening roar, the iron ball twice the fist fell in the snow outside, and it smashed a lot of snow and mud, and bounced and flew forward. And his naked eye can’t capture the Orbit of the iron ball.

    This made Van’er feel a little scared when he was excited. How did the Prince’s Royal High School create such a terrible weapon? If you face a cannon attack, even if you have a full body package, I am afraid it will not help.

    After each group fired a round, the prince of the prince would have ordered a flag to be placed in the first landing position of the shell, while intercepting a hemp rope from the flag to the muzzle position. After four rounds of play, when he was again in the Van’er group, he heard the order to replace the gun.

    The two ends of the barrel connected to the gun frame have a scaled turntable with five scales of 0, 5, 10, 25, and 30. Although it is not clear what this means, it is better to follow the instructions. . Iron Axe shouted: “The shooting angle is five!”Jop, who had the most strength, immediately put the gun bar under the gun chamber, picking up the cannon from the tail end, and Van’er twisted the screw on the gun mount until the first white line was dropped into the hole, and Jop released the gun. brush.

    The tail end of the barrel was back, slightly shorter than the initial position, and the muzzle was lifted up, indicating that the scale fell exactly on the 5th.

    Then there are four rounds of shooting, flagpoles, intercepting the rope, and adjusting the angle of the shot.

    Van’er gradually understood what the prince did.

    He collects the distance that each iron ball shoots, and the greater the angle of the muzzle rise, the farther the iron ball falls.

    At this point, Van’er has a deep understanding when using the bow. When the arrow is thrown upwards, the arrow can shoot far, and if it is flat, it will land soon. I didn’t expect cannon to be like this, just because the speed is fast, so the flight distance is much farther. He couldn’t help but wonder, if the speed of the iron ball is fast enough, will it never land?

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

    On the side of Scarlet Water River, the trials of HMS Little Town are also in full swing.

    Considering the use of Wendy as a power source, the crew on board must be absolutely reliable. So Roland picked a handful of politically handy players as the first crew of HMS Little Town. The captain’s concurrent command is Chief Knight Carter, the helmsman is Brian, the ascending and descending sails are carried out by Carter’s attendants, and the courier is Tigu Pine. These people often come into contact with the witch, and with their own thoughts and refinement, they have no prejudice against the witch. Tigu loves the house and the Ukrainian, and spreads his love for his daughter to the entire witch group.
