Chapter 303 The best tuition!(1/2)

Linlan's dark gray hair had been combed and was clustered behind her head.

She survived the fierce artillery fire by some rituals. Although she was slightly injured, the ritualist's condition was undoubtedly safe and sound compared to the other extraordinary people torn to pieces by the shells and the seriously injured bishop of the war.

“Can you regain control of the ceremony?”

Sefilott asked Linlan directly without saying nonsense.

Although it was a question, the girl knew that there were not many choices for her, but she was unwilling to die again.

"Pope, you should know that the ritual is out of control and its effect is affecting the entire hillside, and I can't get closer to it any longer unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless you can help, this is also the power of the life field after all, and under your control, there is a slight possibility of success."

Sefilot fell into silence. She was indeed able to influence the [Miscity of Disease] to a certain extent. For example, the camp where the Temple Superman and the elite troops of Reims are located are relatively low and are within her protection area, so she is not affected by the [Miscity of Disease].

As for the recruited farmer teams, in her opinion, they were just a pile of waste that could be consumed and were not worth wasting energy to protect them.

What's more, Aslan is eyeing her in Annu Fortress, and is always looking for opportunities...

After a while, the new mother said to the girl, "Then find a way to stop it!"

Linlan sighed in her heart, nodded and agreed...

Can warlock bloodline control the wind?

Martin looked at the third prince floating in the air, a little curious.

"You can't use it anymore, hurry up and go back."

Bishop Aslan on the side urged the two to leave.

Martin was speechless. He had just finished his work and was about to drive them away, don't care about the meal?

But it seems that they are not doing anything here...

Martin did not leave immediately, but went to the city to check the situation of several artillery positions.

Each cannon fired more than ten shells in succession, and the temperature inside the barrel was very high.

The soldiers were pouring cold water into the cooling trough. The cold stream water flowing down from the snow-capped mountains instantly boiled, and the heat was sizzling in the cooling trough.

Because the main component of the barrel is iron, it will react with water at high temperatures to form iron tetraoxide and other oxide impurities.

These impurities will greatly reduce the strength of the alloy used to cast the barrel and will also have an impact on the craftsman's sequence shaping ability, allowing them to peel the impurities from the barrel before they can reuse their ability to cast the barrel to standard specifications.

Therefore, when cooling the barrel, you have to use a cooling groove made of copper to plug into the barrel, and then pump cold water into it to act as a radiator.

On the artillery position, Martin met Jerrys again, and he was checking the already cooled artillery, adjusting their shapes and turning them into brand new artillery.

Jerrys was very excited at this moment, and after seeing Martin, his mood became even higher.

He had just learned from the bishop about the results of the artillery precision strike - two intermediate-level extraordinary people died on the spot, and a high-level extraordinary person at the bishop level was seriously injured!

As for ordinary soldiers, countless casualties were killed or injured, but no one cared about them.

Gunpowder cannot be beaten by its original accuracy, and the shells in the past have also been

Using these heavy weapons to do such accurate operations has made Jerrys feel an unprecedented pleasure!

After understanding the operation of the artillery and giving a few more instructions on the new explosives, Martin was about to leave.

However, Jerrys seized this rare opportunity and asked Martin for a question: "Mr. Martin, why do the heat sinks be made of copper?"

He did not call Martin a teacher, and although he also wanted to be Martin's student, Martin did not teach them directly.

"The thermal conductivity of copper is the best among all metals, better than gold. Do you know the thermal conductivity?"

Martin doesn't mind giving these craftsmen who love to ask questions. Being able to ask such questions at least means that they are willing to think, rather than believing in so-called beliefs and not actively exploring knowledge.

Jerrys nodded and said, "The Properties of Metals written by Mr. Gress not long ago is a blessing for all craftsmen! But isn't silver more suitable than copper? Sterling silver has better thermal conductivity."

Martin was speechless: "Sterling silver is better, but silver mines are more rare, and practical problems must be considered!"

The pretty young Deacon Jerrys scratched his head embarrassedly.

Usually, the craftsman temple supplies metal to the members of the temple. The deacons have a lot of copper, iron, gold and silver quotas, and it is difficult to consume them normally.

I am usually used to being big-handed, so it is understandable that they are a little out of reality.

However, silver is mainly used to make silver coins, and in addition to this, it is a luxury product. Perhaps it can be used to make radiators... Martin thought.

"By the way, you should also pay attention to this radiator. Remember to remove the oxidized impurities on the surface after each use, otherwise it will affect the heat transfer efficiency." Martin reminded.

Jerrys nodded: "There are in the maintenance rules of the artillery, and we have been strictly abiding by them. Mr. Martin, what are the impurities produced by oxidation? Many metals will have this phenomenon."

He continued to ask.

Martin shook his head: "This question cannot be explained clearly in just a few words. In two days, there will be a new textbook to explain this question from another perspective."

Jerrys asked even more excitedly, "Can I watch it too?"

"Of course! But it can only be circulated within the temple. Like the previous training content, there is no charge for any fees..."

The experience value you contribute is the best tuition fee!

Martin patted Jerrys on the shoulder with an old temper, and then saw a smile on the corner of Tiya's mouth.

He quickly withdrew his hand.

"Ahem, how is the damage to the artillery this precise strike?"

"Accurate? It covers a range of nearly 100 meters. Can this also be called accurate?" Tiya picked up the thorn in Martin's words.

However, Jerrys took the initiative to help Martin explain: "Your Highness, the coverage range of the shells was set in advance, not because it was not accurate to attack, but to minimize the chance of escape from the target as much as possible. If all aim at one location, the power of the shells would be wasted."

Martin glanced at Tiya and joked that the cannons made by craftsmen were almost exactly the same! The deacons who made these cannons were all mid-order extraordinary people, and could control the error after three decimal places.

Gress told Martin that if you really want to pursue accuracy, the error of the cannon made by the bishop can even be controlled at the centimeter level.

However, for the killing range of nearly twenty meters of the shell, this accuracy is not very meaningful.

Jerrys then reported: "A total of more than 2,300 shells were fired, and each cannon fired shells every 9.6 seconds. There was no chamber explosion accident, and the overall accuracy was more than 95%. The main reason was that the rifle melted in the later stage and the accuracy was reduced. However, according to the feedback from observers, the error of no shells did not exceed five meters... However, nearly half of the artillery rifles were seriously worn, and almost all artillery needed to be recalibrated."

Martin nodded, satisfied with the result.

"According to this kind of launch intensity, how long does it last for the current artillery life if you maintain a precision of ten meters?"

Jerrys thought about it in his heart, and then replied: "You can hold on until about 250 to 300 rounds."

The reason why Martin asked him was because he was on the front line and was the technical director of the Artillery Battalion of the Annu Fortress. He knew very well about the actual performance of artillery. Many of Glace's experimental data on artillery came from him.

Conventionally, the normal lifespan of a cannon is about 1,500 to 2,000 shells. After that, the rifle is about to be flattened and lose its function. The barrel becomes extremely unstable and the blast rate becomes higher.

This is the result of the Glace experiment.

However, the lifespan of this thousand five hundred rounds refers to the artillery working at the normal launch frequency, that is, there is twenty seconds between two rounds of shells, and during the interval, soldiers will simply cool the artillery.

But as just now, the artillery fires shells at the fastest speed, and without considering the limits of any cost and consequences, the lifespan of the artillery will be greatly shortened.

Within five seconds, the next round was loaded as soon as the shell was released.

Most artillery can't even last until one hundred shells in this kind of overdraft test. The rifle will melt at high temperature and be squeezed and deformed by the shells, and the craftsmen need to shape it again.

Compared with the alloy barrels that have undergone countless artillery fire tests in later generations, the current artillery still lacks in materials.

There is no way, this result requires a large amount of experimental data to precipitate, and Martin cannot know the proportion of those ingredients.

Although there are craftsmen, they cannot perceive the characteristics of each alloy out of thin air. Moreover, different alloys have different composition ratios, and the properties they exhibit may be very different...

Looking at Jerrys' eagerly looking forward, Martin knew that these craftsmen would be the main scientific research force for a long time in the future.

This is also why Martin took a certain risk to cooperate with the Temple of Craftsmen.

As for what Martin mentioned, the upcoming textbooks were of course compiled and commissioned by Gress to publish them inside the temple.

The content is almost as difficult as junior high school chemistry, but Martin has added a part of it in particular, especially in terms of material applications and chemical production, which is the cornerstone project of industrial reform.

...

As it got late, Martin looked at the towering Snow Mountain in the north. Even in the dusk, the upper half of the peak was covered with white snow all year round.

He planned to go to the mountain with Tiya and take a look around the way to see if there was any legacy in the Pale Temple during the Third Age.

He did not forget the book about the Pale Goddess he saw when he first divination was made.

That town is most likely in the mountains and forests in the north of Annu Fortress.

But it was a little late today. As soon as I communicated with Jerry, I talked about the defense issues of Annu Fortress for a while.

Before time knew it, it was already past seven.

"Do you still want to go there?"

Tiya knew Martin’s arrangement, looked at the starry sky that had already shined in the sky and asked him.

Martin looked at the Siva Mountains that seemed to be covered in mist and shook his head: "Let's forget it today, it's too late."

"Then go back?"

Tiya stretched out her right hand.

Martin also understands that he is using his ability to use space transmission.
To be continued...
