A glider was built based on Liu Zheng's idea. After several failures and process improvements, he finally built a glider that could stably glide three hundred meters in the air.
The distance is not long, but it is enough to be involved in the war.
This is very good news for the Long Yan Army. With these gliders, their air combat plan can be implemented.
On the eve of the air raid.
Liu Zheng and Long Yanjun are doing the final work.
Improved explosives. If mines are used, the dose is too small and cannot produce much power.
It simply cannot achieve the purpose of destroying the Saxony industrial area.
However, if too many explosives are carried on the glider, the gliding distance will be affected. If it does not reach the most suitable distance, it will fall, causing no harm to the Saxony Heavy Industrial Zone at all.
So what Liu Zheng has to do now is to reduce the weight as much as possible while ensuring the power of the explosive.
Liu Zheng thought that the simplest way was to add an appropriate amount of sugar to these explosives to increase their power.
But the current situation is that although they do not lack any food, there is no sugar among the supplies they looted from Saxony.
This thing is not a scarce material for Long Yan, but the 50,000 Long Yan army did not carry such a large amount of materials before they came to Saxony to fight.
Everyone carries very few necessities with them.
I brought the sugar with me, but it has been used up now.
However, this is not a difficult task for Long Yanjun. There is a way in Liu Zheng's memory to use flour to produce starch sugar.
Although the effect is slightly worse, it is enough.
Liu Zheng used the flour snatched from the Saxon supply line and after emergency manufacturing and processing, he refined a very limited amount of starch sugar.
Although it only takes a little bit, it is enough.
Adding a little bit of sugar to explosives can increase the power of the bomb several times.
After solving the problem of power, we must also solve the problem of the shell. What is more important in blowing up a factory is the power of the explosion, not the shrapnel produced after the explosive explodes.
Therefore, the iron casing was eliminated and lighter burlap was used.
At the same time, Liu Zheng also stored a large amount of cotton cloth soaked in high-concentration alcohol.
The purpose is to increase the power of the explosions produced by these gliders after they fall.
However, Liu Zheng did not know that at this moment, Prince Subitz of Saxony was also brewing an action plan against their Dragon Flame Army.
Just as Prince Subitz expected, their Holy Crusaders were not penetrated like a sieve by Longyan's intelligence organization like Saxony's.
The Holy Crusaders are an army formed by Catholic believers. In terms of military loyalty, few troops can compare with them.
Even the intelligence department established by Liu Zheng would be difficult to penetrate.
Liu Zheng was unaware of all the Holy Crusaders' action plans.
However, under Prince Subitz's previous cover-up, Liu Zheng's intelligence department reported to him that the Holy Crusaders were retreating and were about to attack Hanover.
Breakthrough from Hanover into Prussia.
After receiving such information, Liu Zheng paid so much attention to the air strike destroying the heavy industrial zone in Saxony and accelerated the pace.
At this time, the Holy Crusaders led by Prince Subiz were already quietly lurking near Mount Halley.
