Chapter 356:「152!」

Can ordinary people defeat the weapons of the extraordinary witch?

After Wendy left, Egsha kept thinking about this sentence, do they really know what the transcendent is?

Unfortunately, I do not have a balanced magic stone on hand, otherwise I can clearly understand the magic and type of these people.

Until she was about to be impatient, the Nightingeon appeared at the door of her room, "Your Highness invites you to visit the test firing of new weapons, if you don't want to go—"

"I'll go," she whispered, "please lead the way."

Seeing a treacherous, yawning Prince Roland, Egsha suddenly had a kind of ice slag on his face, so that he could wake up well.However, this behavior, which can easily cause other witches to misunderstand, can only be thought of in the end.

Out of the castle, she saw the whole picture of the town for the first time during the day.

Against the backdrop of heavy snow, the first feeling of jumping into the mind is neat - a regular double-decker house is side by side, the shape is exactly the same size, and the white outline and the red brick roof are particularly coordinated.The black streets are all straight up and down, dividing the town into squares of similar size, looking out from the near to the distance, and the scenery is completely a circle of buildings, trees, streets, trees, streets, streets, like layers on top of the general.

Even Tachira, the inner city can not be so neat and orderly!

But what made her feel that the city was that there were no other buildings in the town worth seeing, and even the castle itself was far less grand than the tower of Takila.

After all, it was just a small town, and Aigsa grunted disdainfully and turned to the Nightinginge, “How many people live here?”

“Well, at first there were only two thousand people, but now, with the exiles in the north and the south, it is close to 30,000.”

Two thousand people dare to say that they want to defeat the devil, it is a fool to say - wait, thirty...30,000?Agesha raised her eyes, Takila at the peak of the period but to accommodate 50,000 people, this slap-sized place can actually be 30,000 residents?She doesn’t count the people in the surrounding villages, does she?

Although these four-sided brick houses do seem to accommodate more households than wooden bungalows, the increase in residents is not simply a digital pile.When the population exceeds a single limit, the demand for cities will increase exponentially.The first is the significant increase in the demand for food and water, the second is the deterioration of security caused by the expansion of shacks and slums, and finally the disposal of faeces has become a difficult problem.

At the end of the Second Battle of God, Takila encountered such a problem - as the major cities fell and the influx of people into the holy city surged, the burden of the population not only did not strengthen the defensive force, but the city was almost paralyzed, until the Federation forcibly removed a group of refugees and stabilized the situation.

It is because of his own experience that Ai Gesha knows the difficulties of expanding the city's population.Looking at each other's careless appearance, she will believe in doubt in her heart, perhaps the nightinge does not know the answer, but is coaxing herself.

Later, such questions were still kind to Wendy, and she thought that at least the latter's attitude seemed more sincere.

Through the streets of people, Avengesha followed the prince and others to a section of earthen walls.This low wall is completely steep and strong, and it is not hooked, the wall is not buried with thorns, and there is no moat around.The devil does not even need engineering equipment, and can climb up with his hands and feet alone.

Her disappointment increased by a point.

The city wall has a front and rear protruding platform every hundred steps or so, and it seems to be to erect a bed.Not long after walking along the top of the wall, Aigsa soon saw the object of the test.

The shape of the weapon is so special that it is difficult to ignore its existence.

It was a long tubular object made of metal, a bit like an iron spear that was magnified several times, but there was no spear tip.It is smooth and looks silvery gray, not like iron products.Long tube tail end of the parts are more complex, in addition to the fixed bracket, there are two shorter tubes, attached to the supervisor, there are no ropes and no arrow slots, light from the outside does not look like a large bed or stone thrower.

But she also did not figure out how to attack the enemy.

"This is the latest development weapon in the border town, symbolizing justice and glory of the 152 mm fortress standard gun!"Prince Yang said, "Compared to the twelve-pound field gun, it has a number of improvements, all kinds of indicators outstanding, absolutely can be called a epoch-making weapon!"

Agra could not help but frown, what justice and glory, the fortress standard type, sounded very frivolous.The next series of introductions is incomparably mouthwashed, completely hard-flicted words.Is he really a learned prince in Wendy's mouth and trusted by witches?

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

"Cough," Roland cleared his throat, "so there's not much nonsense to say, and test-fire now."Iron axe, let's get started."

“Yes, Your Highness.”Three men in uniforms took action immediately.

Egsha stood aside, staring intently at the movements of these people, hoping to understand the principle of how the weapon worked.

I saw one person slide down the iron block on the tail of the long tube, and the other immediately stuffed an orange-yellow pointed object into the tube, and then closed the iron block.

“Report, ready to finish, can launch!”

"Everyone cover your ears," said the prince, making a demonstration, nodding, "to fire."

Are you ready so soon?Agra had just wanted to ask, and a loud bang suddenly blew in her ear!There was a sudden buzz in her head, and the surroundings were suddenly quiet.The front part of the metal tube erupted a burst of orange flame, dazzling and short, at that moment, she felt the powerful power contained in the flame, the wall under her feet seemed to tremble, a heat wave rushed in front of her, and her body could hardly stand up twice.The gun itself sank back too—but it soon returned smoothly.

"--" The Nightinge caught her from behind her, as if she were saying something, but she could only hear the slight words that were intermittent, as if they were coming from a very far away place... until the buzzing faded and the hearing returned to normal, "Are you all right?"

She shook her head and turned her eyes to the empty snow ahead, but nothing changed.

Is this fire just to terrorize the enemy?

“Have you seen the landing?”The prince asked a witch in green hair.

“After smashing a small mountain bag, the nearest is the red flag,” the latter watched for a while, “but still a lot.”

The red flag?Egsha looked doubtfully at Roland, what were they talking about?

Fortunately, His Royal Highness quickly answered her doubts, "This weapon can be projected to shoot a cannonball, which you understand as an arrow, and to fight an enemy who is still far away."In order to observe the range of the shelling, I let the lightning release the flag below every kilometer, and the red flag was already the last pole, standing five kilometers away.”He explained, “In terms of the size you are familiar with, there are almost three hundred feet in a kilometer, close to a distance of two miles.”

Ai Gesha stood in the same place, did the other party mean that it had just cast the bow arrow into it ten miles away?There are no ropes and storage institutions, how did it do this?Know that even if the siege beast is driven by magic, the farthest projection distance is only three to four miles.If he does not lie, as long as he builds a towering wall with this weapon, he can effectively stop the footsteps of the devil's attack.

But ... it’s not easy to have a weapon with such an amazing range, and it’s not easy to fire it once.

“There’s always something missing from seeing where the cannonballs are,” the prince said, “and then three bursts of rapid shot under the test, attacking the target at close range.”
