Chapter 2126

Although I prayed that the iron Empire ships were not just flying ships, it was clear that the LORD was not helping. It's said that a while ago, I just split the temple mountain. If you can listen to my prayer, it will be hell. So, spaceship = flying ship, which must be unfortunate.

The spaceship of the iron empire was completely modeled on the European sailing ships in the era of great navigation. However, compared with the ships in the sea, the spaceship was much smaller in size.

In fact, there are more than one kind of spaceship in the iron empire. The smallest one is about the size of a lifeboat. It's good to be able to cram eleven or two people into it. The most popular model is a gondola with a length of more than 20 meters and a two-layer cabin. It seems that you don't want to be a warship, but rather like a river ferry.

Of course, I have no interest in this kind of boat. Fortunately, there is no big guy here. In fact, there are three large ships in the airport. It is said that this is the largest model of the iron Empire and the main ship of the iron Empire aviation fleet.

The appearance of the main ship is obviously much more beautiful than the conventional spaceship. The hull with blue as the main body is equipped with many gold ornaments, which looks quite gorgeous. The structure of the warship is completely designed according to the structure of the European style yacht. Except that there is no sail on the top of the deck, it is basically the same as the surface ship.

According to the information provided by muscle man, the spaceship is 70 meters long and more than 30 meters wide. It is not as slender as a modern warship, but rather fatter. There are five layers of cabin inside the hull, and the bottom four layers are all compound cabins, that is, the area in the middle of the cabin is isolated separately to store materials. On the outer side of the hull are two rows of artillery, which are facing the left and right sides of the hull respectively. This is the same as a big sailing boat, except that in Europe, the gun deck is placed on the top several layers, while the gun of the spaceship is at the bottom. But it's also true to think about it. The sailboat is sailing in the water. It helps to get a greater range and a better vision by putting the gun higher. At the same time, the running door above the water is not easy to get into the water. But the spaceships of the iron Empire don't need to be launched at all, and their main job is to attack the ground rather than air combat, so the lower the gun position, the better.

Except for the lower four cabins, the upper fifth cabin is basically the location of the personnel living area and the flight power mechanism. The structure here is compound like the bottom. The power mechanism is in the center of the hull, and the surrounding area is the residential area. Up there is the deck. It's almost the same as a sailing boat. It's just that there's no sail, so there's no cobweb cable. It looks very fresh.

"How many guns does your ship have?" I asked as I toured the outer perimeter of the boat.

The muscle man immediately replied, "there are 128 side guns on the fourth deck. There are two big guns in the bow, and another 16 in the stern. They are the same type as the side guns."

When muscle man talks about guns, I think of the shore defense guns on the coast. The power of that thing is still fresh in my memory. "Is that the kind of cannon you're talking about that is mounted on the coast?"

"No, it's not." The muscle man quickly shook his head and said, "the coast of that circle is shore defense guns, the volume is too large, the spacecraft can not move so much. The two big guns in the bow I just mentioned are those, but they are bigger than the shore defense guns you have seen. The side and stern of the ship are medium-sized guns, and their range and power are incomparable with those magic guns. In addition, there are several shotguns on the deck, which are used to suppress personnel in wartime. However, we are considering whether to give up the deck guns recently, because it seems that they have never been used. "

"It sounds very energetic, but with so many guns, can your ship fly?"

"In terms of lift, there is no problem relying on the air magic stone. However, because the lifting force of the air magic stone is adjusted slowly, the maneuverability is not very good, but if it is only used to attack the ground, it is enough."

I shook my head and said, "it's enough for you to stay here without contact with the outside world, but if our guild also uses air magic stone to make spaceships, it won't work. The sky doesn't belong to us only. Many of our enemies can fly. If our ship doesn't have air combat capability, it's basically a waste! "

Muscle man reluctantly spread out his hand and said, "of course, we also know that this is not possible, but the technical problems can not be solved. We can only use it like this first."

The old man suddenly opened his mouth and said, "with the technical information you provided, we will certainly have a great improvement in the future, but many things can not be solved only by technology. Although we live on this island, we are free from the invasion of external creatures, but we are also trapped here, so we can't get all kinds of minerals and other products outside, but with this resource on the island, even if we have technology, we can't make many good things. "

As soon as the old man said this, the fat man, who seldom intervened, immediately followed: "yes, chairman ziri, our island is too closed. Before, we didn't want to go out. Later, after contacting some powerful creatures from the outside, we finally realized that we would be invaded and defeated by powerful creatures from the outside world sooner or later At that time, what is waiting for us will be a great disaster for the extinction of the dead. Therefore, we hope that President ziri can consider whether you can give us some assistance? ""What kind of assistance do you want?" The other side took me around the city for nearly a day, and now they have put forward their ideas, but I think it has something to do with my performance just now. I had always been indifferent to the things in the iron Empire when I visited before. What they thought I would be surprised by didn't scare me. Just now, when I saw their spaceship, I showed some different emotions. This is why they asked for help. Because they finally found something I was interested in.

The so-called rare goods can be found. If I have no interest in the things of the iron Empire, they can only mix with a dispensable collateral force when they are eager to surrender. Therefore, although they have the intention of cooperation before, they have not taken the initiative to say it. Until just seeing that I am interested in spaceships, they finally realize their value, and as long as they have something for us Value, then the treatment will naturally be different after joining us.

After I asked what kind of cooperation I wanted, the fat man did not answer in a hurry, but said: "I dare not say anything about this kind of thing. I believe that the wisdom of chairman ziri should be able to feel our willingness to cooperate. Now I just want President ziri to give us a clear attitude. If you really mean to cooperate and have a promising way of cooperation, you may as well consider the specific contents. The banquet in the evening may be a good place to talk about things. "

All of us are smart people. The work of the three guides is to ask for my clear attitude according to the situation, so that their senior staff can prepare the corresponding information in the evening for in-depth communication. Well, now that everything has been made clear, the work of the three guides has been basically completed. Of course, in addition to sending two guards to report the situation, the others still stay with me to continue to visit the airport.

In addition, the technology of the empire is much better than that of our own. In fact, their technology is much better than their own. This unbalanced phenomenon, I attribute it to the sequelae of narrow region. Because of the narrow land area and few mineral resources, they have never seen many special materials. Science and technology are basically based on materials science. If you don't practice basic ores, the upper level science and technology will not develop naturally. Therefore, they can only concentrate all their technology on those disciplines supported by ores. As a result, the whole technical system of the iron and steel empire is a lame foot. Some technologies are extremely good, while others are just making do with soil.

Without the task, the words of the three guides were much more than before, especially the old man. I used to think that this guy was a little bit of Alzheimer's disease. Now it seems that he is not Alzheimer's disease, but because he has something on his mind, he is not good at this kind of communicative behavior with double goals, so he has always been a little nervous. Now without these restrictions, the old man has become more talkative than the muscular man. However, his conversational direction is all technical. According to the introduction of muscle man, the old man seems to be a senior scientific researcher here and a famous local scholar. With him, he is basically an encyclopedia of iron and steel Empire.

Under the guidance of the old man, we boarded one of the large spaceships, and then went into the cabin to visit it. There is a big difference between actually entering the ship to observe and listening to the explanation outside the ship. For example, at first, I thought that the four decks inside the spaceship were very large and wide, but when I went in, I found that the lower four decks with guns were very low. Although I didn't have to drill in it with my head down, I could reach the ceiling with my hand.

In addition, I was quite surprised by the artillery on the flying warship. I had a preconceived impression after seeing the shore defense guns of the iron Empire, so I always thought that these so-called side guns were magic guns with great power. However, when I saw them in practice, I found that the side guns they used were really guns, and they were front mounted.

"Is this gun too much or something?" I looked at the smoke in front of the gun, some unbelievable asked the old man: "you don't have magic cannon? Why use guns? Even if you have to use it, can't you use it in the back? "

After being asked by me, the old man first replied, "we do have magic cannons. You can see that just now in the bow of the ship. It's just that it's too big. Although it's powerful enough, if all of that kind of things are installed, we can only install 20 guns in a ship, and we can't carry any other weapons. In contrast, although the artillery is far inferior to magic gun in terms of power and range, it is superior to magic gun in that it is light enough and can be easily pulled up. Therefore, in order to increase the vitality density, we gave up the magic gun and used the gun instead. As for what you said about afterloading, do you mean to load shells from the back of cannons

Obviously, the old man didn't even know what the afterloading gun was. After I introduced the technical difference between the rear loading gun and the front loading gun, the old man replied directly: "although I know what the afterloading is now, our steel Empire still can't use the afterloading gun, because we can't seal the gun chamber. If we use the afterloading gun, our cannon will not only leak It's a primer, and it could blow up. "

Originally, I was very surprised why the iron Empire used the rear loading gun instead of the front loading gun. Now I can understand it immediately after listening to the old man's explanation. Before the iron and steel Empire, it seemed that the technology was very developed, but in fact, it was all illusory. Their technology is completely based on magic technology, and the biggest difference between magic technology and real science and technology is that magic technology requires almost zero precision of parts.For example. In reality, if you want to make a large windmill, the bearing part of the windmill must be very accurate to ensure that the bearing will not wear each other due to the bearing is not round enough. In addition, the blade of windmill must also be accurate, because if the weight and installation angle of the windmill blade are not symmetrical, then when the blade rotates, it will continuously produce bias traction The force causes the bearing to continuously impact the surrounding fixed mechanism under the huge torque, and finally causes metal fracture or severe wear. These things do not look impressive, but they really affect the operation of the windmill, and the bigger the windmill is, the greater the wind power in its position is, the higher the requirement for this accuracy will be.

But what if you use the magic windmill? First of all, we can replace the bearing with suspension array and static force field array, so that the wind blade of the ventilator can be completely separated from the main engine. Then, since the blade does not contact with the transmission device itself, how can we talk about wear and tear? Let alone the irregular structure, it doesn't matter whether the docking part of the blade and the transmission rod is round or square. Anyway, they only transmit power by static force field, and there is no direct contact at all, so the shape is meaningless. The same is true of the leaf. If there is no contact, there will be no impact. As long as the weight of the blade does not deviate too much and the whole wind blade is thrown out, it is basically OK.

In fact, in many cases, there is no requirement for the accuracy of the game. Iron and steel empire is good at magic technology, so their precision processing ability is quite poor. Although it may be good compared with other places, it can't be seen according to the standard of powerful science and technology.

This afterloading gun seems simple to us, but it's a big problem for the steel empire. The reason why they are afraid of sealing the submarine's shell is that they can't control the leakage of the gun before and after the gun is sealed.

In fact, even if the accuracy problem is solved, the strength of the steel empire may not be able to build afterloading guns, because their metal material strength is not up to standard. Although magic technology does not have as low requirements on material processing as precision, it is definitely not much higher. Therefore, the metal smelting technology of iron and steel empire is quite backward. Their metal strength is very low. Because the range requirement of the front chamber gun is not high, it can withstand it. If a large caliber rear loading gun is designed, the explosive power will go up and the gun will be finished Yes. If you want to reduce the power, what do you need to do with afterloading?

Because I put forward a series of advantages of the afterloading gun, the old man has been grinding with me for afterloading gun technology. However, I finally told him that if their processing accuracy is not up to standard, even if they lose a drawing to them, they will still not be able to make the afterloading gun. Even if it is forced to manufacture, it is a defective product of castration version. Although this made the old man stop pestering me, he was completely beaten and withered. As a result, after getting off the ship, the old man returned to his previous state and began to play dumb.

Although the afternoon is not short, the steel empire is a small country after all, we just visit it casually and it will be almost at night.

According to what has been said before, the evening is a banquet hosted by the top management of the iron empire. Although Poseidon was unwilling, she was still pulled over by me. Of course, she was not the main character, but just came to show her politeness. After all, in name, this is my welcome party and her farewell party.

Although the area of the iron and steel empire is very small and the population is small, the banquet scale in the evening is not small at all. I estimate that at least three or four hundred people came to attend the banquet. Maybe all the management of the iron and steel empire could not leave except on duty.

Naturally, there was no nutrition at the beginning of the banquet. In terms of time, everyone expressed their feelings and then started the formal banquet. However, after the banquet started, I left the venue together with the real power holders of the iron empire. At the corner of the banquet venue, they specially prepared a small room. There were only four people in the room except Ling and me, and these four were the actual power holders of the iron empire. In addition to one president, the remaining three were responsible for the economy, military affairs and scientific research of the iron empire. The status of the legal department of the iron empire was very low, because the country was full of soldiers, that is to say, strictly speaking, there were no civilians in the country. In such a country, with its small population, many people know each other. As long as any two people in the country can get related to each other through three people, such national laws are really not very useful.

"Well, you guys, I've heard from the guide you arranged for me this afternoon. Now let's be more direct. I really mean to cooperate with you, but there are only two ways I can accept

"Go ahead." Said the president of the iron Empire opposite.

I nodded and said, "the first way is to exchange technology, that is to sell us all the technologies I think are valuable in your country, and our guild will provide equivalent technology, currency or resources, which can be chosen by you."

"No, no, no, we don't want to sell technology!" Those in the iron Empire all shook their heads. Obviously, they were not willing to accept this plan.Seeing their reaction, I went on to say, "well, apart from the first one, the only way I can accept is a complete merger." (to be continued.
