Yaslian flew out with Emperor Shi Tian, and then introduced to Emperor Shi Tian, "This is our mass-produced 180 mm mortar, with a maximum range of 15 kilometers, the fastest rate of fire of more than 20 rounds per minute, and the explosive power is equivalent to a third-level spell, with a total weight of only 300 kilograms." ”

As she spoke, Yaslian popped up a light curtain and placed it in front of Emperor Shitian, with the details of the mortar on it.

Name mortar howitzer

The rate of fire is more than 20 rounds per minute

Power Sealing Level 3 Spells (including but not limited to, Burst, Great Fireball, Ice Ring, Lightning Strike, Earth Splitting, Acid Rain, Fire Wall)

Shell weight 60 kg

After reading these materials, Emperor Shi Tian nodded, expressing great satisfaction, and then said directly: "Ten rounds of continuous shooting, start!"

"Yes!" Yaslian immediately agreed, then turned around and ordered: "Ten shots, start!"

Without any nonsense, the orc loader immediately grabbed the glowing cannonballs from under his feet and put them into the cannons one by one.

With a thudding sound, the shells were shot out one by one, and since it was two orcs who took turns to reload, the rate of fire was still very fast.

Emperor Shi Tian and Yaslian floated high in the air, looked at the target a few kilometers away in the distance, and immediately suffered wave after wave of artillery baptism, in the blink of an eye, a hundred shells smashed over, it is estimated that there is a hundred-person cavalry team there, and most of them will definitely be killed, and the rest will definitely be injured.

Emperor Shi Tian, you nodded with satisfaction and said, "Conduct another limit test, if there is no problem, it can be mass-produced." ”

Therefore, the limit test means that the cannon is kept being fired until the barrel is broken, and how many shells are needed to make the barrel useless.

At the same time, it is necessary to test the service life of the gun barrel in rainy days, snow days, high temperature environments, low temperature environments, and special environments.

To be precise, it is to see how durable this mortar is, and if it passes this series of extreme tests, it will prove that this is a qualified mortar and can be mass-produced.

However, if it is easy to be damaged during the test, it means that this mortar still has quality problems and must be solved before it can be put into service.

If it was before, Emperor Shi Tian would definitely be reluctant, wasting so many cannons, just make do with it.

But now it's different, Emperor Shi Tian is really a big business, rich and rich, this kind of mortar will definitely produce tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of units in the future, such a huge quantity, there must not be the slightest sloppiness, and the quality must be guaranteed to be fully qualified before purchasing.

Otherwise, buying back a large number of defective products will directly affect the combat effectiveness of the entire army.

At this point, after the last war, Emperor Shi Tian summed up the lessons and re-improved the new army, which finally took shape.

The first is the Air Force, which includes the Mage, the Kobold Aluminum Bat, and the Necromantic Airship.

Among them, the strongest mage unit did not change its formation, but increased its number by 10 thousand, and the commander of the gun, who was retired from the 250-mm heavy artillery.

The dog-headed aluminum bat is fully cultivating the Yuanci Invisible Sword, and it will become a powerful class to control the flying sword in the future, which is very worth looking forward to.

And then there is, the necromantic airship, known as the giant gaze, is really a good baby, flying fast, high load, strong defense, and can be equipped with up to eight 20mm six-barreled cannons, 360 degrees of direction, no dead angle strike, and firepower and sustained power can be called against the sky.

Since the Necromantic Airship can also be used as a transport ship in normal times, it is now in the first series of production, and even the Necro Chariot has been discontinued for this purpose.

Next up is the Army, which includes the Minotaur Gun Knights, the Orc Mortar Knights, the Cavemen Fully Automatic Howitzer Knights, and the 250mm Heavy Artillery Gun.

Among them, the Minotaur Machine Gun Knight has nothing to say, the 30 mm machine gun God blocks the God and the Buddha blocks the Buddha, a heavy armor and the flying sword cover of the mount, the defense is super strong, and the movement speed of the steel wolf can be called the perfect combination of attack, defense and maneuver.

In addition to the high cost and high consumption, there are no disadvantages.

Then there are the orc mortar knights, who usually work in groups of two, one carrying a barrel and one carrying a shell.

This duo is really a big killer, and it is 20 180mm caliber shells in a minute, and each shell is equivalent to releasing a third-level spell.

Even a mage at the peak of bronze can only release less than ten third-level spells in a minute, and the range is far less than 15 kilometers, not half a point.

As for the cavemen and heavy artillery, they remained the same as before, still maintaining their original pickling. It's just that the commander of the heavy artillery has become a flower fairy, and the gunners have been reduced by two, that is, half of them.

Finally, there was the transport of troops, which used to have only alchemy carriages, and the number was not enough, so they had to let the necromantic chariots take on part of the transportation tasks.

But now it's different, the addition of necromantic airships will greatly increase the transportation capacity of the army, thus reducing the pressure on logistics a lot.

Emperor Shakti did not distribute these troops to his generals like the others, but gathered them all in the barracks and did not assign them direct generals.

When fighting, the general will choose the troops to fight according to his own tasks, and when the time comes, he will go to the barracks to choose.

As a matter of fact, this is a more reasonable plan for the allocation of troops.

Because when generals fight, they meet different targets, and the weapons and equipment they choose are also different.

And if the generals are allowed to have only their own fixed regiments, then it is likely that when they set out to fight, they will find that they have more or less troops, or that there are not enough weapons of some kind, and so on.

But now there is no need to worry about this at all, after getting the task, the general and his staff officers will make a battle plan, and then decide for themselves, how many troops to ask, what kind of troop combination, and even provide additional logistics supply requirements.

In this case, generals can be very cool to fight, what they want.

And Emperor Shi Tian's side also avoided all kinds of waste.

In addition, this can also prevent generals from fighting or even quarreling over certain weapons and equipment or special arms.

The most important thing is that if the generals do not have direct troops, there will be no problem of rebellion.

Don't look at this in the divine realm, the generals are bound by contract, if they want to rebel, then they can still rebel.

In this magical magical world, there is nothing that cannot be done, and the contract constraints can only guarantee the loyalty of the following to the greatest extent, and cannot guarantee 100% that no one will rebel, especially when tempted by the devil or demon, it is easy to be corrupted and degenerate.

In fact, in the past time, there have been quite a few lords who have died tragically because of the betrayal of their subordinates.

Although Emperor Shi Tian was very confident in the means of controlling his subordinates, he still habitually took precautions, using this method of separating soldiers and generals to try to isolate the control of the troops as much as possible, so as to prevent the occurrence of rebellion.

Of course, this is more likely to lead to the situation of soldiers and generals who do not know, and there may be a little problem during the battle.

But Emperor Shi Tian had already prepared, one was the academy system, the generals were teachers, and the middle-level officers in the army were students, so that the teachers and students could be familiar with it, so that no one would know about it when they were fighting!

In addition, Emperor Shi Tian tried his best to standardize the troops.

Not only should weapons and equipment be unified, but even strategy, tactics and combat ideas should be agreed upon, and they should often be well trained.

In this way, basically all the fighters of the same class can be similar, as long as they command according to their usual habits, and there is no need to deliberately familiarize themselves with them.

A month later, Emperor Shitian's new equipment arrived one after another, and the new combination of troops gradually took shape.

Emperor Shi Tian even took them to train together a few times, and the results were very good.

However, training alone obviously cannot achieve the purpose of perfect military training, and it is necessary to have actual combat.

So, Emperor Shi Tian planned to personally take his new-style troops and find a target to beat him hard.

And this target obviously can't be those lords, because Emperor Shi Tian doesn't want to expose his necromantic airship and other new weapons, and these treasures have to be kept to hit the enemy by surprise, so naturally they can't be easily revealed.

Therefore, Emperor Shi Tian can only choose to fall in the wild as a target. And given the elite level of his troops, this method must also be very strong.

After some screening, Emperor Shi Tian finally chose a super strong nest of wild creatures, the Spider Forest.

The spider forest can be called the cancer of this underground world, it occupies a radius of 30,000 or 40,000 kilometers, and all of it is covered with various large trees tens of meters high, and under the trees are dense bushes and mushroom grasses and other things.

Anyway, this place is a bit like a tropical rainforest, with high temperatures, high humidity, and extremely fast plant growth.

Obviously, in the cold underground world, the appearance of such a high-temperature area is absolutely inseparable from the rich geothermal resources there.

It is said that the Spider Forest has many hot springs, and even the rivers formed are white mist, and if you accidentally fall into them, they can be cooked even quickly.

In this extremely dense forest, there are a lot of insects, these small insects eat all kinds of plants in the forest, and when they grow up, they become food for small spiders.

In the terrifying Spider Forest, the so-called small spiders are also about the size of a basin, and they will become food for the larger spiders.

Larger spiders will become food for larger spiders.

In short, and so on, a terrifying food chain of big spiders eating small spiders is formed.

At the top of the Spider Forest food chain, there are some silver-level spider monsters that can reach tens of meters in size.
