LNMTL needs user funding to survive Read More

Every day such training can continue two to three double-hour, after ending, he must return to the city wall , to continue to do * his old trade. The waiter in same dormitory has registered the flintlock team, now has been raising the brand-new flintlock, stands behind shows off to keep in oneself. If not the ethical governance does not permit to fight, Van'er wishes one could sewing his mouth. 每天这样的训练都会持续两到三个时辰,完了后他还要回到城墙,继续干*他的老行当。同一间宿舍里的伙计报名了火枪队,现在已经提着崭新的火枪,站在自己身后炫耀个不停。如果不是纪律要求不准斗殴,凡纳恨不得把他的嘴给缝起来。 But he also saw not the place of suiting. 但他也看出了不对劲之处。 How many days do the countrymen of joining flintlock team then train? Starts, in fought with Evil Beast's tempers the fire to be skillful, but artillery team? Has not hit including a round of shell. Moreover, cannon that then sinks, basic impossible ships the city wall. 加入火枪队的乡亲们这才训练几天？就开始在与邪兽的战斗中磨炼射击技巧了,而炮兵队呢？连一发炮弹都没打出去过。而且,那么沉的火炮,根本不可能运上城墙吧。 Has a look at this wall top, two people stood shoulder to shoulder almost stop up the corridor completely, usually everybody was familiar with on the wall inside pitch runs, even if were steep , the ratio hindered the teammate to do to puncture the spear/gun movement to be better. As for cannon...... Two wheels have only extended compared with the wall top, in addition must fire toward below, saw that thought is not quite practical. 看看这墙顶,两个人并肩站立差不多就把过道堵满了,平时大家都习惯在墙内侧的斜坡上跑,哪怕陡了点,也比妨碍队友做刺枪动作要好。至于火炮……光两个轮子就比墙顶宽了,加上还要朝下射击,怎么看都觉得不太实用。 Is it possible that...... Isn't this thing used to cope with Evil Beast's? 莫非……这东西不是用来对付邪兽的？ The following practice has verified the suspicion of Van'er. 接下来的练习印证了凡纳的猜想。 Four artillery groups were brought the riverside by Iron Axe. He discovered when does not know, in Scarlet Water River were unexpectedly many huge " ship " ! No...... He did not determine that this is a ship, the outer covering seems with the stone of build city wall is different, is wide and short, except for two bare masts, where has the appearance of ship? Therefore the Van'er group also disputed. 四个炮兵小组被铁斧带到了河边。他发现,不知何时,赤水河里竟多了一艘庞大的「船」！不……他也不确定这是否是艘船,外壳看上去跟搭建城墙的石头没什么两样,又宽又短,除了两根光秃秃的桅杆,哪里有船的样子？为此凡纳的小组还争执起来。 „This clarifies is floating bridge,” what draws the conclusion is Jop, he once followed transports the ore the sailing ship to go to Longsong Stronghold, often boasts experienced, „several feet wide deck, obviously for stable! I was widely traveled to see a lot, if were the ship, not having the wind can move? Before this river has had flood, in several years of a wooden bridge stronghold shattered. The people in city substitute with floating bridge, does one pile of wide planks to sew on the small boat, pulls up the wire rope again continually becomes a row, how walks steadily!” “这摆明就是个浮桥嘛,”率先下定论的是柚皮,他曾跟随运矿的帆船去过长歌要塞,常自夸见多识广,“几丈宽的甲板,显然是为了稳定！我闯南走北见得多了,如果是船的话,没风要怎么动起来？以前这条河发过大水,把要塞里十几年的木桥都冲垮了。城里的人们就是用浮桥取代的,搞一堆宽木板钉在扁舟上,再拉起铁索连成一排,怎么走怎么稳！” „Goes to the farthest place has been Longsong Stronghold, but also is widely traveled,” Rodney scoffs to say with a smile, „the floating bridge words need to set up two masts, for fear that weren't swept by the wind?” “去过最远的地方就是长歌要塞,还走南闯北咧,”罗德尼嗤笑道,“浮桥的话需要立两根桅杆,生怕自己不被风吹走？” „Moreover you look at end, traverse isn't the steering wheel? floating bridge available does not arrive at this.” Nelson backed up, their two brothers were always a nostril vent anger, „how the ornaments of other among wooden frame saw that likely must build a shed, but has not finished. This is a ship, without a doubt.” “而且你看尾端,横放着的不是舵轮吗？浮桥可用不到这个。”纳尔逊帮腔道,他们两兄弟从来都是一个鼻孔出气,“另外中间木架的摆设怎么看都像是要搭出一个棚子来,只是还没完工罢了。这是一艘船,毫无疑问。” Is Van'er ship interest is not big to it, he only cares about the following training content. The answer makes known quickly, Iron Axe requests them dragging the horses of gun carrier is catching up with H.M.S. Little Town-- right, is the name of this ship, His Highness the Prince names personally. Listens to the introduction of Iron Axe, Jop the complexion is stiff immediately, but two brothers complacent-- again cannon round substance on stop pole of reservation. 凡纳对它到底是不是船兴趣不大,他只关心接下来的训练内容。答案很快揭晓,铁斧要求他们把拖着炮车的马匹赶上小镇号——没错,就是这艘船的名字,还是王子殿下亲自命名的。听完铁斧的介绍,柚皮顿时脸色僵硬,而两兄弟得意洋洋——再将火炮轮子系在预留的阻拦杆上。 Such stop pole altogether has two groups, each group of four, on the middle line of deck, assume one after the other arranges. Obviously can one time load two cannon. 这样的阻拦杆共有两组,每组四个,位于甲板的中心线上,呈一前一后布置。显然可以一次装载两门火炮。 Good, Van'er thinks, then can determine, they must cope was not Evil Beast-- Scarlet Water River has flowed from north to south, in Hidden Forest did not have the so spacious rivers. 好吧,凡纳想,这下可以确定,他们要对付的不是邪兽了——赤水河由北向南流淌,迷藏森林里也没有如此宽敞的河流。 When first time steps the deck, Van'er feels its outstanding stability immediately. The river water accompanies the hull to wind through, but stone ship is entirely still, is similar to stands is ordinary in the ground. When the horses were caught up, will feel some swinging. 第一次踏上甲板时,凡纳立刻感受到了它杰出的稳定性。河水伴着船身流过,而石船纹丝不动,如同站在地面一般。只有马匹被赶上来时,才会感受到些许摆动。 He also notes, whenever one group of artilleries complete in one round to disembark the practice, Iron Axe will record the next time in side. Relates in stop pole to deck, it seems like four groups be only two groups can apply. Van'er told this news secretly to the panel, everybody waited eagerly immediately, each step used ten tenths strength. Cannot elect to be kicked the words of long spear/gun team, on the face countenance cannot pass the minor matter, the salary of enhancing did not have, but important matter! 他还注意到,每当一组炮兵完成一轮上下船练习,铁斧都会在旁记录下时间。联系到甲板上的阻拦杆,看来四个小组只有两组能派上用场。凡纳偷偷把这个消息告诉给小组成员,大家立刻憋足了劲,每个步骤都用上了十成的力气。选不上被重新踢回长枪队的话,颜面上过不去还是小事,提高的薪酬没了可是大事！ When to seventh day, Van'er welcomed the firing practice training of expecting for a long time finally. 待到第七天,凡纳终于迎来了期待已久的实弹射击训练。 But on this day, His Highness the Prince also arrives at the scene, watches the artillery to practice. The people of four groups all support the chest high, walks bursting with energy. 而这一天,王子殿下也亲临现场,观看炮兵练习。四个小组的人无一不把胸口挺得高高的,走起路来浑身是劲。 Because fills ammunition that set of everybody to practice quite familiar, therefore the quick first artillery is started by the Van'er group. 由于填装弹药那一套大家都已练得颇为熟悉,所以很快第一炮就由凡纳小组率先打响。 This is also he for the first time witnesses the cannon might. In the deafening bellow, two times fall in the iron ball of fist about one mile snowy area, raises the big piece snow and mud, bounces is departing forward far away. But his naked eye cannot catch Orbit that the iron ball carries on. 这也是他首次目睹火炮的威力。在震耳欲聋的轰鸣声中,两倍于拳头的铁球落在一里开外的雪地里,掀起大片积雪和泥巴,又弹跳着向前飞出老远。而他的肉眼根本捕捉不到铁球进行的轨迹。 Does this make some faint fears of Van'er also when the excitement, how His Highness the Prince make this and other fearful weapon? If face the cannon attack, even if there is a whole body armor package, perhaps does not help matters. 这让凡纳在兴奋之余也隐隐有些害怕,王子殿下到底是如何制造出这等可怕的武器的？若是自己面对火炮攻击,就算有全身甲包裹,恐怕也无济于事。 After each group fires one round, His Highness the Prince can assign the person to insert a flag in the first point of descent position of shell, simultaneously intercepts one from the flag to the hemp rope of muzzle position. Four rounds fire off, when is one's turn the Van'er group once more, he heard the instruction of replacement muzzle angle of fire. 每个小组射击一轮后,王子殿下都会命人将一杆旗帜插在炮弹的首个落点位置上,同时截取一条从旗帜到炮口位置的麻绳。四轮打完,再次轮到凡纳组时,他听到了更换炮口射角的指令。 Spot that gun tube both sides and punmetals mountings connect has one to inscribe the criterion the turntable, above is indicating 0, 5, 10, 25 and 305 scale divisions, although not too clear this means anything, but presses the instruction operation to be good. Iron Axe shouts: „Angle of fire five!” Strength biggest Jop arrives at into under the artillery brush holder support the gun tube barrel chamber immediately, from end pry cannon, the screw rod on Van'er reverse punmetals mounting, submerges in the hole until the first white hachure, Jop loosen open fire brushes. 炮管两端与炮架连接的部位有一个刻有尺度的转盘,上面标示着0、5、10、25、305个刻度,虽然不太明白这意味着什么,但按着指令操作就好。铁斧大喊出:“射角五！”力气最大的柚皮立刻将炮刷杆抵入炮管药室下方,从尾端撬起火炮,凡纳扭转炮架上的螺杆,直至第一根白色刻线没入孔洞中,柚皮才松开炮刷。 End after the gun tube drops, was slightly shorter than the position that most starts, the muzzle lifts upwardly, instructed that the scale division happen to falls in 5 characters. 炮管尾端回落后,比最开始的位置稍微矮了一些,炮口向上抬起,指示刻度正好落在5字上。 Then is four rounds fires, inserts the flagpole, the interception string and adjustment angle of fire. 接着又是四轮射击、插旗杆、截取绳子、调整射角。 Van'er looked to understand His Highness the Prince gradually the matter of doing. 凡纳渐渐看明白了王子殿下所做之事。 He is collecting the distance that each iron ball projects, but the muzzle rising angle is bigger, the distance that the iron ball falls to the ground is also farther. 他在收集每一次铁球射出的距离,而炮口上扬角度越大,铁球落地的距离也越远。 This Van'er when using the bow has profound understanding, upward ejection, far that the arrow can shoot, the flat-trajectory fire words, then fell to the ground quickly. Has not thought that cannon is also this, because the speed is fast, therefore the trajectory range is much farther. He sprouts up the fantasy, if the iron ball speed to the certain extent, never will fall to the ground quickly? 这点凡纳在用弓时深有体会,向上抛射时,箭才能射的远,平射的话,很快便落地了。没想到火炮也是这样,只是因为速度快,所以飞行距离要远得多。他不禁突发奇想,如果铁球速度快到一定程度,是不是就永远不会落地了？ ******************* ******************* Near during Scarlet Water River, the cruise of H.M.S. Little Town aggressively is also conducted. 赤水河边,小镇号的试航也在紧锣密鼓地进行当中。 Considered that must use Wendy to take power, the personnel on ship must be absolutely reliable. Therefore Roland chose a group of political perfect subordinates to come to take the H.M.S. Little Town first batch of crew. The captain holds a concurrent post of the direction is Chief Knight Carter, the helmsman is Brian, hoists sails and falls the sail hand/subordinate to be responsible for by Carter attendants, pass on message is Tigu Pine. These people frequently and witch contact, the sleek/moist thin silent ideological remolding, did not hold any prejudice to witch in addition, Tigu loves it and everything that comes along with it, the concern to daughter proliferated on the entire witch community. 考虑到要使用温蒂作为动力,船上的人员必须绝对可靠。于是罗兰挑选了一批政治过硬的手下来作为小镇号的首批船员。船长兼任指挥是首席骑士卡特,舵手是布莱恩,升帆和降帆由卡特手下的侍从负责,传讯员是提古.派恩。这些人经常和女巫接触,加上自己润物细无声的思想改造,对女巫已不持任何偏见,提古更是爱屋及乌,将自己对女儿的关爱之情扩散到了整个女巫群体上。
