Chapter 863

Duh!

With the sound of long sirens, a huge black steel warship appeared on the battlefield of scuffle between the two sailing fleets.

Except for unexpected materials.

The most remarkable feature of this warship is that it can't find the standard configuration of ships of this era - towering masts and huge sails. Instead, it is towering chimneys with thick black smoke.

This is actually a "tulip" science and technology tree directly jumped over the creation - [steam powered armored ship]!

"The Icelandic state of Atlantis, which has a weak industrial base, can suddenly produce weapons of this level? What's more, the steam engine is no longer an auxiliary power. Instead, all the sails are removed in one step? "

The war between the two strong neighbors is of course their favorite, and the three Elvins also want them to rush people's brains out of dogs' brains, but this change is unexpected.

The first time to go back to check their own equipment warehouse.

The result was no surprise.

In the past three years, four new battleships, including the prototype of the full heavy battleship, the equipped knight, were launched one after another.

As the killer of tulip, it still stays intact in the secret military harbor.

There are no fewer of the three full heavy battleships headed by the first intrepid pearl of the Black Sea.

The cost of the fearless class full heavy battleship is about 400000 Golden Lion, which is equivalent to the cost of ten class I windsurfing battleships.

Even the wealthy pharetis and Garriott could only keep the speed of one ship a year for the time being and hoard weapons.

Moreover, in the era of the big bang of science and technology, weapons are being updated very quickly, and Elvin and Livina are not ready to dig a hole that they can't climb out of.

As for the cost of [steam armored ship], it is much lower than that of [full heavy battleship], but it still has a huge advantage in dealing with ordinary windsurfing battleships.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom

As soon as she got out of stealth, the steam powered armored ship launched a swift and violent attack on the fleet of the Sark empire.

The sharp conical shell easily penetrated the thick hull of the Sark warship with the accuracy that conventional shipborne artillery could not imagine.

Far beyond the range of the conventional sail battleship, a major class III warship of the other side was sunk just by firing four guns in a row.

In the eyes of Elvin and their three bystanders.

Compared with the mainstream windsurfing battleship of this era, this battleship not only uses steam power, but also creatively uses the design that the main weapon is contained by the upper turret of the ship.

Among them, 304mm front loaded linear gun was loaded, and conical shells were used to pursue range and accuracy.

One of the advantages of the turret is to solve the problem of gunner's protection when the front mounted gun is loaded.

When the gun needs to be loaded, it can take back the inside of the turret, cover the loading with armor plate, and then push back to the gun position.

In this way, Gunners don't have to risk their lives to load guns on the deck with shrapnel flying, and their safety is greatly guaranteed.

Moreover, the two twin main turrets are arranged on the top of the ship, rather than on the side of the ship like the conventional battleships, and the number of them is greatly reduced.

This kind of design concept, which comes down in one continuous line with [full heavy battleship · fearless class], is not the patent of Ivan and watt, but the inevitable choice made by the engineers with the development of battleships.

Because the arrangement of a large number of side guns is not more advantageous than the arrangement of a small number of guns in the rotating turret.

Moreover, due to the contradiction between the displacement of warship and the armor of warship, a large number of side guns will occupy the load seriously and make the armor of warship thinner.

In addition, the flexible steam powered warship also makes the use of side guns smaller and smaller, and the heavy armor can completely resist the artillery shells used by windsurfing warships.

So the warship engineers, naturally, began to change their pursuit from the quantity of artillery to the quality of artillery. Bigger caliber, stronger shell, stronger penetrating and killing effect!

It is also the mainstream of the era of "giant ships and cannons" in the future.

But Elvin still doesn't understand how Atlantis made this kind of thing?

Without industrial base, relevant technical personnel, and consistent technical route, can't it be that we have jumped out of the cracks in the stone?

Driven by a strong thirst for knowledge.

Elvin simply gave up the indirect monitoring of the "psychic network" and used the "cave knowing eye" to launch remote viewing. He looked directly from long island to the battlefield thousands of kilometers away.

The next second, the main parameters of the warship have been rolling rapidly in Evan's eyes.

The displacement is 9448 tons; Length: 87m; Width: 20m; Main weapons: two turrets, four 304mm front loaded rifled guns, huge impact angle; Range: 12 hours at 15 knots

It also penetrates its steel body and sees the internal precision system.

Steam is not only used for power, but also for rudder control system, mooring system, rotating armor system, ammunition loading, pumping and lifting of small ship, harpoon and so on.

Some of them are also used in [full heavy battleship], but some of them make Elvin feel fresh and fresh.

what? You said stealing technology is wrong?

Hi, can we call it stealing about technicians? This is theft!

"Well, it seems that technology is very mature. It doesn't seem that any genius created it on a whim.

But in the absence of any front-end technology, it's really great to be able to do so! "

In the surging tide, some people guide the tide, and some people are carried forward by the tide.

Evan has always believed that no great person is indispensable, and the people are the creators of history.

The world will not stagnate completely because of the lack of Menon watt or Evan Garriott. At most, it will be delayed for decades or hundreds of years.

Suddenly, when his eyes moved to the core power room of the steam armored ship, Elvin's eyebrows gently picked.

"This thing... Is more than that!"

[power core · steam spinning ball]

The working principle on the surface is that a brass tube is installed on both sides of a closed steel vessel, and there is a hollow ball in the middle of the tube that can rotate around the axis.

On both sides of the ball, two reverse elbow nozzles are installed in the direction perpendicular to the rotation axis to fill the inside of the container with water and then burn charcoal for heating.

Water boiling into steam, carrying a huge amount of energy from the nozzle on both sides of the ball, steam will drive the hollow ball to rotate at high speed.

The rotating speed is up to 3000 revolutions per minute, which provides a continuous surge of power for this battleship.

Looking at the steam powered armored ships in the sailboat fleet, which is one era behind, Elvin gradually fell into deep thinking.

"It's not human who invented this armored ship!"

Since watt has been able to break through the knowledge and cognitive circle of all intelligent creatures and successfully become a "crown Wizard", it is impossible for anyone to have the same attainments in "steam powered machinery".

But.

As far as this armored ship is concerned, the weapon system, steel armor, shipborne artillery and so on are not enough, but the powerful [power core · steam spinning ball] should not be the creation of human mechanical engineers.

Considering that the kingdom of Atlantis is the first place where demons appear and even demons come, Evan has reason to suspect that this is the "demon technology" given by demons from the lower realm to some Atlantis.

At least in Evan's mystical knowledge.

Among the 72 pillar demons, vasak is the third one; The sixth is "walliver"; The ninth is "baimeng"; The 25th is "Cathy Morar"; The 28th "Belle"; The 33rd "Jiabo".

There are six demons who have knowledge of science or alchemy.

However, if you add in the ability of "invisibility" that you just didn't even notice, this goal can be reduced to the sixth, ninth and 25th magic gods.

Of course, we can't rule out that the plural demons with various abilities are "helping" the Atlans.

It's a pity that Solomon's contract with the seventy-two demons made him unable to take the initiative to find their troubles.

"MD, it's not hard to figure out the intention of these demons to seek the vitality behind the door, but as it stands now, they are just robbing us for business!"

Whether it's a risk, personal experience or independent thinking, Elvin has gradually sorted out a main line with detached eyes.

The so-called "Renaissance", "the era of great navigation", "the revolution of steam industry", "the torrent of capital"... All are just small tributaries of the great trend.

The trend of "weak compensation" that runs through the whole planet herag is the main trend that accompanies the whole world.

Individual power is weakened, and scientific power makes up for it.

No matter who it is.

In this process, every beneficial promotion of "compensation" should receive a huge amount of feedback from the world.

Maybe we can really find a new way to "rescue" in addition to going to "behind the door" and holding the real God.

Even if you can't reach the level of the true God, you can still carry the present strength and reason to the next era. Which true God has the world consciousness!
