Golden Summoner

Chapter 183 Giant Cannon

Xia Ping'an's apartment is small, but Shangjing City is huge!

Just when Xia Ping'an was bathing in the Yiyang Divine Spring in the small apartment he rented, a fierce battle was going on underground in Shangjing City, in that dark and deep place that ordinary people had only heard of but never been to. About to start.

Densely packed demon fire spiders and demon liquid spiders crawled out from the demon caves in the underground world, almost tens of thousands of them.

The target of these magic fire spiders and magic liquid spiders is a majestic and fiery steel city located underground in Shangjing City.

These big spiders crawled out of the dark devil's cave and various caves, crawled through the dark gaps and rock walls full of monster remains and bones, and headed towards the steel tower from the ground and around the rock wall. The city advances.

The entire underground was filled with the rustling sound of those spiders marching, as if quicksand and mudslides were surging in the dark underground toward the steel city.

The city of steel has steep walls more than fifty meters high. The walls of the city wall are covered with pieces of rough but hard steel armor like warriors in armor.

The city was in full swing, and the smoke from the steam made the city walls steam as if in a heavy fog.

The strange movements of the monsters have been discovered, and the steam boilers within the city walls have begun to pressurize, and the powerful city defense equipment is being activated. On the walls of the steel city, there are tall arrow towers that are 60 to 70 meters long. Like a giant's arm driven by steam, gears and mechanical devices, it rises from the city wall, spreads its teeth and claws, high in the air, extending towards the outside of the city, like the quills on a porcupine, or like the thorns held by an octopus. The spear was aimed at the big spiders surging from the magic caves and caves in the distance.

On the moving arrow towers, haloes of light rose, and the summoners began to prepare spells one by one.

On the city wall, the high temperature and red light produced by the steel-making furnace made the city glow red in the misty steam.

The smelted steel poured down the grooves on the city wall, repairing the damage on the city wall and giving the city wall a stronger defense.

This kind of battle is a common thing for dungeons.

Soldiers wearing armor and holding heavy muskets have all entered the soldier cave in the tower and entered combat mode.

The reserves of the powerful summoners of the Judgment Army are ready to go.

On the city wall, rows of dark muzzle windows were opened, and the muzzles of murderous cannons were revealed from the city wall. The artillery was ready.

The big spiders surging in the distance were gradually entering the shooting positions that the artillery had already marked.

At the highest point of the city tower of this majestic city, two men wearing gorgeous black and gold robes of the Councilor Bishop of the Dark God of War were standing on one left and one on the right. Beside the middle-aged man wearing the patriarchal miter, they all looked coldly at the monsters coming from the devil's cave.

Monsters were surging outside the dungeon, but all three of them looked calm.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the artillery is ready!" The old man with a calm temperament and black hair standing on the left side of His Highness the Crown Prince of Dashang Kingdom said calmly.

If Lan Wuwei were here at this moment and saw that old man with a calm and serene temperament, he would definitely give an audience ceremony, because this old man is Lin Yi, the commander-in-chief of the Judgment Army, the counselor bishop of the Dark War God Sect of the Great Shang Kingdom, and also a member of the Shangjing City. One of the most powerful summoners who has advanced to the Six Yang Realm.

The underground city below Shangjing City is garrisoned by the Judgment Army.

The man standing in the middle, who was called His Royal Highness by Ji Yi, was Beitang Wangchuan, the prince of the Great Shang Kingdom.

The man standing on the right side of Beitang Wangchuan looked a little older, his eyes were shining, and his aura was powerful, even a little aggressive.

This person is Fei Yulong, the Minister of Navy of the Great Shang Kingdom, who is also a big shot in Shangjing City.

When Lin Yi spoke, Fei Yulong's face was calm, and his eyes inadvertently glanced at the seven brand new movable forts on the city wall. The forts had been reinforced and modified, and seven guns were installed on the forts. For Fei Yulong, Some unfamiliar cannons have a caliber of 400 mm, a longer barrel, and a larger caliber. They are intimidating at first sight.

As the Minister of the Navy of the Dashang State, Fei Yulong knew very well what the current level of the Dashang Artillery Research Institute was. Just a few months ago, the Dashang Artillery Research Institute had just overcome several problems with the 310 mm main gun. A technical difficulty.

Therefore, the seven 400 mm caliber cannons in front of him were by no means the result of the Firearms Research Institute, and he had never heard of any of the several gun factories in Dashang producing artillery of this level before.

Today, His Royal Highness the Prince invited him to the underground city, in the name of seeing the power of the main guns of the future naval battleships of the Great Shang Kingdom.

Where did those cannons come from? Fei Yulong was full of doubts.

Hearing Lin Yi's words, Beitang Wangchuan nodded and said softly, "Then try the power of those main guns..."

Lin Yi looked at the artillery commander who was staring at the city wall in the distance and nodded slightly. The artillery commander's right hand raised high suddenly swung down like a guillotine.

"boom……"

"boom……"

The main guns on the city wall roared, and clouds of flames spurted out from the muzzles of the main guns with a caliber of 400 mm.

At the moment of firing, all the turrets shrank back, and the turrets under the main cannon were also trembling. Although the powerful hydraulic shock absorption system resolved most of the impact, the power of the huge cannon still made the city wall and The air on the city wall trembled.

The shells screamed and flew out from the muzzle. With huge kinetic energy, they flew nearly 30,000 meters in the dark sky of the underground world, like meteors that cut through the sky, and then fell on those who surged from the devil's cave. Inside the incoming spider army.

Explosion, roar, earth shaking...

When a cannonball falls, it is a ball of fire that expands violently. The fierce firelight is like a ball of bloody flowers blooming in the darkness underground. As soon as it hits the ground, it can devour and tear into pieces the big spiders within dozens of meters around it.

The defenses on those big spiders were not weak, but under the terrifying high temperature and shock wave, each spider was either turned into charcoal or into pieces.

The cannons on the city wall kept roaring, building a wall of death directly underground 30,000 meters away from this majestic city...

The power of this main gun surprised the three people on the tower who were silently watching in the distance.

The artillery observers and commanders who were watching the distance with artillery sighters and remote viewing capabilities were also shocked and inspired.

The range of 30,000 meters is 30% greater than the range of the previous generation main gun of the Great Shang Kingdom. The power of the high explosives filled in the shells is also completely different from the past. It is two levels...

For all monsters, this is a big killer.

Those cannons are still roaring!

The automatic loader on the fort is stuffing huge shells into the barrel and firing them continuously.

The quality and stability of that cannon are very high...

It's a pity that the number of cannons is still a little small. The big spiders continue to pass through the death barrier 30,000 meters away, continue to charge, and approach the underground city.

When the big spiders approached more than 20,000 meters, other main guns on the city wall began to roar.

The whole underground city was suddenly filled with gunpowder smoke, the sound of cannons was rumbling, and the shells fell one after another, tearing the big spiders rushing towards the underground city into pieces.

Fei Yulong finally couldn't help it anymore, "Your Highness, where did those seven artillery pieces come from?"

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled slightly, "If our navy and various dungeons of the Great Shang Kingdom are equipped with such sharp weapons, what do you think, Master Fei?"

"If our navy had such huge cannons, the coastal defenses would be indestructible, and it would be easier to clear out those sea monsters and pirates. At the same time, the navy would greatly reduce its reliance on summoners. His Royal Highness has not yet said where those giant cannons came from. Yes, our artillery research institute probably doesn’t have the capability to manufacture this kind of artillery yet!”

Lin Yi next to him spoke, "This artillery comes from Da Tingguo in Mujiao Prefecture. His Royal Highness the Prince has completed a transaction with Da Ting Guo. Da Ting Guo will transfer several keys to the production of this artillery to our Great Shang State." With technology, in the future we, the Great Shang State, will also be able to produce and equip artillery and shells of this caliber!"

Fei Yulong frowned slightly, a little unbelievable, "Can the Great Ting Kingdom manufacture artillery of this level? Previously, the firearms technology of the Great Ting Kingdom was similar to that of our Dachang. How could it advance by such a rapid pace? This artillery involves many The key technology is that the alloy steel used to cast the cannon body can withstand such a high bore pressure in the barrel of such a large caliber and double diameter. The materials team of our Artillery Research Institute has been working on this for several years but still has no results! "

"A genius came out of Da Tingguo. It was that person who made Da Tingguo's artillery research advance by leaps and bounds, and suddenly threw us away!" His Highness the Crown Prince said softly, shaking his head slightly, "Dating Guo is quite lucky. of!"

"Who is the genius?" Fei Yulong asked.

"Da Tingguo has always kept the identity of that person very secret and has not leaked anything, so the outside world still doesn't know. However, there is news that that person may become the new director of the museum in Da Tingguo in the future. When the time comes, we will Got it!" His Highness the Prince said softly, and then looked at Lin Yi, "The steel factory and gun factory in Shangjing City are currently preparing for technological transformation. I will let the following digest the technologies obtained from Dating Kingdom as soon as possible. , During this period, it may not be peaceful in Shangjing City, so please take care of it, Mr. Lin, and don’t let those shameful things affect the important events!”

"The Judgment Army will definitely do its best!" Lin Yi bowed slightly, then looked at the Demon Cave in the distance, and reminded, "In the past six months, His Majesty has been marching north, and the movements in the underground Demon Cave have become more frequent, and people from all religions and nine streams coming and going from the Imperial City have also It gets more and more complicated, and now the safety of the entire Shangjing City depends on His Highness, so please pay more attention to it!"
