The ensuing battle was just as Lawrence had predicted. That night, the sahuagin assembled the only elite force remaining from the human pursuit during the day and attempted a night attack.
However, because of Lawrence's previous reminder, these rat people, who were also excellent at night fighting, issued a warning in advance, and then together with the entire fleet that was prepared, they went to great lengths to eliminate the effective strength of this group of sahuagin.
Then after a daylong pursuit, the fleet successfully arrived at the lair of the sahuagin prince. It easily defeated the only garrison and then tortured the prisoners with extraordinary power, and then killed all the people in the lair.
After taking away all the wealth, they returned victoriously.
In this expedition, the total number of casualties in the entire fleet was only more than 70 people. But they can be said to have basically completely wiped out 1/5 of the strength of a sahuagin kingdom. This can be said to be as close as the Star Sea.
The biggest victory over those aquatic wilderness races in ten years.
In addition, the Bofors factory engineers who were on board the ship during this battle also took the opportunity to test a batch of new fuses. For example, after leaving the offshore waters, in addition to attacking those giant sea beasts, the collision of hedgehog bombs
It seemed a bit inappropriate to explode the fuze, so the engineers replaced it with fixed-depth fuzes and time fuzes.
As a result, after a series of battles during the pursuit, engineers discovered that both types of fuzes had certain problems. Among them, the timing fuze had the biggest problem.
Because of the water flow, these depth bombs will collide after being launched into the water, resulting in various problems. Therefore, the time of explosion is completely inconsistent, and because some bombs explode early, the remaining bombs of the same batch float everywhere.
Yes, it simply cannot form enough lethality.
The fixed-depth fuzes are obviously better, but the cost of those fuzes is five to six times that of the impact fuzes due to the fine machining required. When used at the same time, a transcendent needs to accurately point out the specific location where the enemies are gathering.
Therefore, it is not as economical as the previous fuse. From an economic point of view, unless you encounter a large group of sahuagin, firing a round of hedgehog bombs may not recoup the cost in the end.
Fortunately, after summing up the experience of this actual combat and accepting the inspiration from Lawrence, they planned to use cheap spring sheets to replace those expensive springs that required special processing, and at the same time redesigned the design to reduce the accuracy requirements of each part. Trying to
The cost of this fixed-depth fuze has been reduced. However, it may take several months for new products to leave the factory.
"Actually, this is not a bad thing." After dinner that afternoon when the fleet completed its final sweep of the sahuagin and began to return, Nora, who had received the investigation report, said to Lawrence, who was obviously distressed.
"We can now take out the expensive version and cooperate with others first, and then research a cheaper version and then use the second round of money in the name of upgrade, that is, we can get two copies of the money for one thing."
"Sounds really good." Lawrence snapped his fingers after hearing what Nora said, and then said seriously. "But how to solve the problem of locking the opponent's aggregate position? I don't think there is any force that can give everyone
Each ship is equipped with a spellcaster with underwater detection capabilities."
"This is indeed a problem, but it is not unsolvable." Nora thought for a while and said, "I think you should know that the best effect is to use sound waves to detect underwater targets, so we can find a way to invent some kind of sonar function.
The magic props are installed on those ships. At least compared to the ships, I think they should be willing to install some cheap magic props."
"That's right." After being reminded by Nora, Lawrence also reacted. "And in addition to being equipped on warships to detect monsters that may appear underwater, these sonar can also be installed on civilian ships to help civilian ships avoid dangerous monsters.
Shoals and reef areas. Even if the initial cost is relatively high, as long as the price is lower than asking someone to cast a spell, I think some special ships will be willing to spend money to purchase it."
The reason why Lawrence and Nora have such confidence is because they have mastered a lot of knowledge related to magic, and at the same time, their extraordinary level has reached a certain level. Therefore, it is not difficult for them to study a low-level magic.
Too big, it's just a matter of time.
Over the next day or so, Lawrence attended several important gatherings in the morning and discussed some very important matters with a group of powerful officials on the island. During such discussions, Lawrence and representatives of the New Zealand Republic reinforcements
Several important economic cooperation agreements were reached.
These agreements involve the export of new weapons and the authorized production of new drugs. There is only one reason why the representatives of the New South Wales Republic made such a request, and that is that they have experienced the excellence of those depth bombs and various new agents in battles before.
performance, so I want to cooperate with Lawrence in this regard.
One of the very important reasons why Lawrence brought so many things with him when he set out was to promote the new products on the island. But what he didn’t expect was that the White Eagle Federation, his original target, didn’t actually discuss this with him.
Instead of discussing issues in this regard, the Republic of Xinzhou unexpectedly sent an invitation for cooperation.
Lawrence told them that the cooperation on new weapons needs to be notified to the Holy Visby Empire, so it may take a day or two before a final decision can be made. But for new medicines, he can agree to cooperate now. So soon the professionals under Lawrence
People started a new round of negotiations on the transfer of new pharmaceutical production technology.
"I really don't understand why the White Eagle Federation is so slow to respond?" Looking at the New Zealand Republic negotiators who went to the conference room to negotiate with their retainers, Lawrence said to Nora next to him with some confusion, "Obviously they also
I’ve seen the effects of these things, and I still have such a close relationship with them.”
"Maybe it's because this is the most remote overseas territory of the Federation." Nora thought for a while and said.
"Unlike the Republic of New Zealand, which sends personnel affiliated to the central government, the White Eagle Federation personnel who have been in contact with us recently are all a group of expatriates stationed on the island. It is not easy for them to report these things to the top.
There is not much benefit, but it will bring a series of troubles to themselves. Under such circumstances, they will naturally ignore us intentionally or unintentionally."
"It's about the same as I guessed." Lawrence shrugged a little helplessly. As long as it is an intelligent creature, the idea of being lazy and afraid of trouble is definitely unavoidable. In places with strict supervision, everyone will naturally follow the rules.
Do it, but it’s hard to say in a place far away from home. “But do they really think that I can’t do anything to them?”
The reason why those people on the island dare to ignore Lawrence is because he is now a noble of the Holy Visby Empire. It can be said that every action represents the Holy Visby Empire, so it is not easy to deal with some matters within the Federation.
Pointing fingers. But it is not an unsolvable problem for Lawrence.
After the battle, Lawrence wrote a report about the war with the help of Shu Mei. It specifically pointed out the effect of depth bombs during the battle, as well as the testing of new drugs after the battle.
It has good effects on various wounds. Then it was mailed to the Federal Science Association of the White Eagle Federation.
As a member of the Commonwealth Scientific Association, his paper will definitely receive the highest degree of attention. In this paper, Lawrence reveals a new method of coastal defense in the face of attacks by aquatic supernatural creatures, which can
It is said to be full of useful information, and I think it should be made public in a very short time.
By that time, the White Eagle Federation will naturally take the initiative to approach Lawrence and the others regarding business cooperation.
