Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

When Yang Bing heard Lin Yi's comfort, he realized that it turned out that he was the one who brought all this to himself.

All the troubles were caused by his own misconceptions.

The Army Weapons Research Institute mainly studies the manufacturing of individual weapons for soldiers, focusing on low price and large quantity.

There is no comparison at all with the Aircraft Research Institute and the Ship Research Institute.

But he himself took advantage of the situation and went to compare with them. How could he not make himself suffer?

So, after experiencing Lin Yi's enlightenment, Yang Bing figured it out and his confidence returned.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I have figured it out." When Yang Bing said this, he was sincere in his heart.

When Lin Yi heard Yang Bing's words, a smile appeared on his face.

He didn't expect that this little old man would have such a sensitive side.

Lin Yi smiled and patted Yang Bing on the shoulder and said to him: "Master Yang, your Majesty also sees your achievements."

"You work hard. When you really can't do it anymore and need to retire and return home, I'm sure His Majesty won't be stingy with a title."

As soon as he heard that the emperor might give him a title, excitement suddenly appeared on Yang Bing's face.

Lin Yi nodded, and then seemed to think of something again.

"By the way, those new weapons you mentioned today should be tested as soon as possible."

"After passing the test, we can slowly put it into production and equip the troops."

"However, there is no need to be too anxious, and there is no need for mass production. The world war has just ended, and the international environment is not too tense. So there is no need to be too anxious."

"Just produce at the normal speed. As for quantity, the empire's future goal is 8 to 10 armored divisions. Just follow this quantity."

When Yang Bing heard Lin Yi's words, he nodded heavily to show that he knew.

"Oh, by the way, I suddenly thought of something."

"I wanted to tell you this before, but there were so many things on my mind that I forgot about it."

"When you go back this time, you will try to develop a new weapon. It is required to be a vehicle-mounted artillery, and then a multi-barreled artillery. Once loaded, the shells can be fired in a very short time."

After speaking, Lin Yi picked up a pen and wrote on the paper.

In less than three minutes, Lin Yi drew what looked like a multiple rocket launcher and placed it in front of Yang Bing.

"Probably, that's what it means. You can figure out the rest after you go down."

Yang Bing took the drawing handed over by Lin Yi. He looked at it briefly, and then the expression on his face became unnatural.

Because this thing is, in part, an enlarged version of the Divine Machine Arrow.

This kind of magical arrow is a weapon created by the dynasty before Daxia, and it has a history of about four to five hundred years.

This thing is just a gunpowder booster behind the arrows.

After someone ignites the fuse, the booster begins to boost the arrow and shoot the arrow into the enemy camp.

Previously, a young researcher at the Weapons Research Institute proposed to develop a similar weapon, but Yang Bing rejected it.

At that time, it was proposed that a new type of artillery could be designed based on the principle of the Shenji Arrow.

This type of artillery can be propelled by gunpowder and send shells directly into enemy positions.

But at that time, Yang Bing refused. Because this thing, the disadvantage of being old is that it uses gunpowder to assist and there is no way to carve rifling inside the barrel, which will make this kind of artillery have no accuracy at all.

The empire's artillery has always been pursuing high accuracy. Yang Bing does not like artillery that has no accuracy, similar to smoothbore cannons.

But what's going on now? Why did the prince suddenly propose to design and manufacture such a weapon?

Could it be that this weapon had any features that he hadn't seen that could make the prince so interested in it?

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for speaking frankly. This kind of artillery has no accuracy and the secondary reloading is slow. Do we really need to design such a weapon?" Yang Bing decided to speak more clearly.

"Of course it's necessary. It's not necessary. Why should I ask you to develop it?"

"Also, this weapon does not rely on accuracy. Its characteristic is to cover the battlefield with maximum firepower in a very short period of time."

"This is a kind of fire cover during an attack. It helps soldiers clear the opponent's heavy firepower, fortresses, etc. in the shortest possible time to the greatest extent."

"When retreating, this weapon can be used to block the enemy's pursuit."

"So, this kind of artillery doesn't need to rely on accuracy at all."

Lin Yi said slowly to Yang Bing.

At this time, Yang Bing finally understood what Lin Yi meant.

To put it bluntly, the main focus of this weapon is its delivery ability. Drop the maximum number of shells on the enemy in the shortest time.

As long as the cannonball can be sent over, it will be fine. As for whether the cannonball can hit such a vital point as the fortress, that depends on fate.

At the same time, Yang Bing seemed to be inspired. He felt that such a weapon, assuming it had 48 rounds, could fire them all within 10 seconds.

Then I increase the number tenfold, and ten of these things are launched at the enemy at the same time. That is, 10 shells can be fired at the opponent within 480 seconds.

No one on the other side would be able to react to this firepower, and they wouldn't even have a chance to dodge.

Moreover, this thing uses a boost method to launch, so the muzzle velocity of the shell is relatively low, and the requirements for the barrel are lower than those of ordinary artillery.

That is to say, you don't need to consider the caliber issue, and you can build it in any caliber you want.

If Yang Bing's thoughts were known to Lin Yi, he would definitely tell Yang Bing that he didn't have high requirements for the gun barrel? He doesn't even need the barrel.

Take a look at Lao Maozi’s pipe organ rocket launcher in later generations. It is just an iron frame, and the rocket launcher is hung on it. Where did the barrel come from?

As for caliber, Yang Bing is right about this. This thing has no obvious regulations on caliber.

The 107-caliber one can be a rocket launcher, or the 120-caliber one. If you can afford it, you can even build a 150-caliber rocket launcher.

What is this concept? This is equivalent to hundreds of heavy artillery clearing the enemy's position within ten seconds.

Faced with such ferocious firepower, anyone who comes will probably be stunned.

Seeing that Yang Bing had completely understood what he meant, he asked Yang Bing to leave first.

As for Yang Bing, he is also a little anxious now. He wants to return to the research institute as soon as possible, and then discuss the design of this rocket launcher with the young man from before.

Watching Yang Bing leave, Lin Yi suddenly thought, since he has begun to develop rocket launchers, can long-range missiles be far behind?

Once the missile is available, can we add some materials to the missile?

Thinking of this, Lin Yi asked Fang Zhong to inform Fang Xiao and let him start executing the "migration" plan that he had made long ago.

When Fang Xiao learned that Lin Yi asked him to start executing the migration plan, a smile appeared on his face.

The so-called migration means moving from one place to another.

Lin Yi and Fang Xiao have been preparing this plan for ten years, and now the time has finally come.
