Chapter 418 Qinglong's Main Gun

"Everyone! The first thing you see is! Triple artillery α type! Through the latest design concept, it can achieve an attack range twice as long as a naval gun! Not only that! We also installed the latest invention on it, Fast! Automation! Free up your hands! Even just one person can complete the loading and firing of the turret! What a genius!

Quinn excitedly introduced the Qinglong's turret he designed to everyone. Different from the navy's round design, which was like an upside-down bowl, the Qinglong's turret was designed to be angular and smaller than the round one. Compared with the short and thick gun barrels of the Navy, the Qinglong's gun barrels are more slender, and the triple gun barrels are like sharp swords soaring into the sky.

"Hey, Quinn, why do I feel like the barrel of your gun is not as thick as the one in the Navy? Didn't you say it is more powerful than the one in the Navy?"

Kaido looked at the somewhat slender barrel and couldn't help but ask Quinn. After all, the phobia of insufficient firepower is probably a problem that every naval fighter suffers from. It is higher than that of the army. After all, the army can You can play close combat, but if you want to play bayonet fighting at sea, it's too difficult.

(As a veteran of the Navy, I would like to express my highest respect to all the predecessors of the Xisha naval battle who fought bravely and were not afraid of powerful enemies, and thank you for your efforts.)

"Don't worry about this problem. Next is the second point I want to introduce. We have developed the latest type of artillery shells. Compared with the original round and unstable iron ball artillery shells, this cone-headed artillery shell is easier to possess. When detonated, it is more lethal, especially when fighting at sea. Even if the shell has a one-in-a-thousand chance of not detonating, it can directly sink the opposite ship through its tip. "

Quinn took out a cannonball larger than Yamato from the turret and began to introduce it.

"In addition, I applied the rifling modification technology on the gun to the barrel. With this kind of shell and the elongated barrel, I don't have to worry about the firepower at all. The firepower will only be stronger, never Weaker!"

Although the cost of building the Qinglong was ridiculously expensive, which gave Lily, who was already somewhat short of funds due to the expansion of Baique, a headache, but fortunately the final result was still satisfactory. As an experimental battleship, Quinn and Intelligent Control Core 10001 put almost all the technology on the Qinglong, except for some equipment that is indeed unmatched, and these unmatched equipment, Quinn and Intelligent Control Core 10001's idea is to put it on the Suzaku, so that The Blue Dragon and the Suzaku became two ships with completely different priorities.

According to the design drawings, the Suzaku is expected to be more than three times the size of the Blue Dragon. Of course, what will the specific situation look like? I don’t know, who knows what sudden whims they will have. The design drawings of the Qinglong have been revised crazily as the work progresses in the past six months, which means that the people in the pirate world work very efficiently. It’s unbelievable, and the robot construction team of the Mechanical City does not need to rest. Otherwise, this ship will not be launched in half a year. With that kind of water and more noodles, and more noodles and more water, it will definitely be as good as the third most powerful country in the world. Just like a fighter plane, it cannot be launched into the water in forty years.

"Very good, very good. By the way, that automatic reloading device you just mentioned, how long does it take to fire one round?"

Kaido asked his question again. Kaido, who had identified this ship as his vehicle, felt that he had to thoroughly understand this ship, although he would definitely not be honest when fighting. Instead of staying on the ship to direct the battle, he rushes out to confront his opponents head-on. After all, that is how he can show his value. But no matter what, as a captain, he must understand his own vehicle.

"It can fire a salvo in 15 seconds. Of course, this ship is also equipped with an overload function, which can fire a salvo in 5 seconds when necessary. However, it cannot be turned on for a long time because it will cause the barrel to overheat. Due to the mechanical fatigue of the reloading device, we really can’t replace the entire artillery with the special metal produced by Dai. The demand is too high and it can only be used in some important parts.”

Quinn spread his hands and said, in fact, the speed of launching a volley in 15 seconds is already terrifying, but in this strange world, all kinds of weird things can happen. 15 seconds is actually a relatively moderate time. speed.

"There are three main guns in total. They are arranged in the order of two in front and one in back. In addition to the main guns, there are also mid-range artillery. Come with me and I will show you."

Quinn said, leading everyone to the other side. A row of turrets that were obviously smaller than the main guns appeared. In addition to being much smaller in size, these turrets also changed from triple-mounted to double-mounted. These turrets stood on the ship. The sides of the ship were like rows of guards.

"This is a mid-range artillery, used to output firepower between the firepower of the main gun. Although the power and range are not as good as the main gun, it is much stronger than the previous artillery. The most important thing is that this kind of artillery can reload It is very fast and can fire a salvo in 4 seconds. Likewise, this artillery is also equipped with an automatic reloading device, so there is no need for manual operation. I will find someone to fire it for you to see how safe it is. "

Quinn said, calling a gunner who had been prepared for a long time, and asked him to get into the gun position and aim at the target that had been prepared in the distance. It was not that Quinn did not want to go in and fire the gun himself, but because when it was designed, he hoped to use all the space, so the door of the gun position did not support Quinn's stature to enter. It was strange that the excellent gunners on the side of the beasts seemed to be some people who were not tall, and the automatic ammunition replacement device was also designed for these people. After all, this would allow these excellent gunners to fight alone, without the need for a special person to carry ammunition.

As the gunner adjusted, everyone watched the turret start to rotate, and soon it aimed at the target in the distance.

"Everyone! Cover your ears!"

Quinn shouted and quickly covered his ears, and others looked at Quinn's appearance and naturally followed suit. Since the builder asked everyone to cover their ears, they should be obedient. Listening to others' advice will make you full, right?

Of course, there must be some people who don't listen, such as Kaido, who crossed his arms and was not afraid at all. In his opinion, this thing could not scare him, he was the ghost king Kaido!

"Boom!"

The huge sound of the cannon made many people feel lucky. Fortunately, they had foresight and listened to Quinn's words to cover their ears. The sound of this thing was so loud even if they covered their ears! I really don't know how miserable the people inside will be. In fact, these people are overthinking. This kind of thing has long been considered by Quinn and others. These turrets have super sound insulation inside, and are also equipped with special soundproof earplugs to ensure the safety of the people inside as much as possible.

And those who are lucky, naturally there are unlucky. Many people were scared to sit on the ground by the sudden sound of the cannon. Not everyone has Kaido's concentration and can be completely unafraid of such a huge noise.

Kaido's eyes were fixed on the shells that were fired. Sure enough, Quinn was not bragging this time. This conical shell was indeed much stronger than the round shells. It did not deviate during the flight and flew straight towards the target floating on the sea, hitting it accurately, and then a second explosion occurred.

With Kaido's eyesight, he could clearly see that the shell exploded the moment it touched the target. It was completely different from the round shells that were purely luck-dependent. The sensitivity of this shell was simply too high, but this also made Kaido worry about another point, which was...

"Quinn, this shell is so sensitive, are you sure it won't explode due to vibration? Even in the ship, it will explode after being bumped and hit by various vibrations?"

Kaido's worry was not unreasonable. After all, how bad the sailing environment in the New World is, anyone who has been in the waters of the New World for a period of time knows it very well.

"Don't worry, we have already considered this kind of thing. The trigger fuse of this kind of shell is composed of two sections. Not to mention the trigger fuse at the top of the shell, the shell below is also special. The trigger fuse above will be activated only after the shell is separated from the shell, and this requires the entire shell to be activated. The activation of the shell requires a special activation device in the turret, so you don't have to worry, brother Kaido. All of this has been thought of by the genius Grandpa Quinn! Ahahahahahahahahahaha! Cough, vomit, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"

Quinn laughed so hard that his tongue stuck out. As a result, a flying bird was brought in at this time, and a piece of bird droppings fell accurately into Quinn's mouth. Then Quinn, who was choked, closed his mouth and bit his tongue. Suddenly, Quinn, who was very proud just now, began to grab the edge of the boat and vomited crazily.
