This kind of weapon had been finalized long before the expedition. When Zhang Weidao described the idea of ​​​​this weapon, Garroen, the stubborn dwarf blacksmith master, rarely complained. He should be quite satisfied with this design idea.

It is a sniper grenade launcher with a caliber of 40mm, and its total combat weight reaches more than fifty kilograms. This amazing weight makes the dwarves very satisfied. This is a gun used by real men!

Garroun's evaluation of this handheld artillery-level weapon is that it is big enough, thick enough, and powerful enough. Real men want to use such a powerful weapon!

Zhang Weidao once observed the live ammunition firing of the trial production version of this weapon before going on the expedition. At that time, when the old dwarf was holding the big and thick weapon and shooting the target with a drunken smile, Zhang Weidao was really worried that he would lose his chain.

, and then the shot went sideways, blowing up the passerby next to him.

Facts have proved that dwarves are awesome. Even when they are drunk, they can still shoot without missing a shot. The advantages brought by their long lifespan are too strong. They may spend longer practicing guns than humans in a lifetime.

Although Garroen is not a hunter, he can already crush the hunters of ordinary races with his superb marksmanship. He casually takes a look at the targets thousands of meters away and holds the sniper cannon.

He opened fire, fired ten shots and blew up ten targets.

Although there has been no progress in integrated circuits, it cannot be equipped with an integrated microcomputer, and naturally it does not have various functions such as a fire control system and infrared night vision.

But for these guys with incredible physical fitness, this is not a problem at all. A better sight is enough. Do you need night vision? The race has its own night vision talent, and the sight has some low-light enhancement.

The effect is enough.

Is this weapon over fifty kilograms too heavy? It doesn’t exist! Not only can we run very fast with this weapon on our back, we can also jump up and down, climb trees and get on roofs. This weight is nothing!

This kind of weapon, which is disliked by soldiers on Earth because of its weight, has no shortcomings at all in the hands of these alien natives. They even want to make it bigger and heavier.

There is also another sniper gun being developed at the same time. The anti-material heavy-duty sniper rifle is the most suitable for hunters. Although the caliber of that sniper rifle is only 20mm, it fires regular bullets, and the speed of the bullets is not that of rifle grenades.

comparable.

This kind of sniper rifle, with a muzzle velocity of over a thousand meters per second, is often used for assassination before the opponent can hear the sound of bullets flying until he is hit by the gun. The grenade may be noticed by a strong person and avoided in advance.

In order to have these two weapons transported and installed as soon as possible, Zhang Weidao speeded up and went downstairs to arrange the transportation of personnel.

In fact, there is not much to do. Just send these mages to the Alterac mines and arrange for the refugees from Stormwind City to come up. The equipment operators and some guards are left on the battleship, plus Daelin.

The sailors who will be arranged to learn how to operate weapons will be enough to maintain order and exert their combat effectiveness at sea.

When Zhang Weidao came to the deck, Admiral Dai Lin was already visiting the warship with the smartest sailors in the fleet. It was not easy to learn how to operate those electronic devices. These were sailors with the highest level of education selected from thousands of people.

Fortunately, the gunners or helmsmen in these fleets have a certain foundation in themselves, and they are the youngest ones chosen, so the learning progress will not be too slow, and they should be almost ready in half a month.

Sir Lothar was giving a speech at the port to encourage the people who were about to return to their homeland. Zhang Weidao burned so many orc ears a few days ago, the morale of the people was still very high. Especially when they heard that the orc defenders were cleared away in time

Many houses and facilities in the city are still usable. They all want to go back as soon as possible to see if the houses are still there.

After the speech, refugees carrying large and small bags began to board the warship. These refugees knew that there would be sufficient supplies, but were unwilling to leave their supplies. It seemed that the escape journey frightened them.

Watching the first batch of 50,000 refugees return to their homeland, Sir Lothar was filled with emotion. The earlier he arranged for people to return to Stormwind City, the earlier he would be able to stabilize the people's hearts.

In the past few months, many nobles have been ready to move and secretly want to defect to other kingdoms. This kind of transfer of capital is cutting the flesh of the Kingdom of Stormwind!

Sir Lothar said goodbye to the advance team returning to Stormwind City, and was thinking about how to frighten the nobles who were ready to make a move, when he suddenly saw Zhang Weidao carrying mortars.

He can still understand this kind of cannon. It is not much different from the city defense cannon. It is also a front-loaded cannon that is loaded from the front.

He couldn't understand what Admiral Dai Lin ordered, so naturally he wasn't interested in it. He was excited when he saw this kind of weapon.

He's not really stubborn, shelling is very important during a war, otherwise Stormwind City wouldn't be able to last that long.

This kind of weapon can dig holes for the orc army like a plow. It is very effective to send the knights to attack after using it. This is how the orc catapults were destroyed in the Battle of Stormwind City. Now the knights reorganized in the Kingdom of Stormwind urgently need this

A portable artillery, which will greatly improve the survival rate of novice cavalry.

Sir Lothar stopped Zhang Weidao who was about to go to the racecourse, pointed to the mortars that the soldiers were pushing easily, and asked about the price of such weapons.

Zhang Weidao saw that Sir Lothar was very interested in mortars, and decided on the spot that a base number of fifty gold coins was a shell. A base number was one hundred shells, which meant that it only cost half a gold coin to fire a cannon.

The mortar itself is not expensive. As long as you buy ten basic ammunition, you will get one for free. The price shocked Sir Lothar. It turns out that the cannon can be given directly!

And the price is too cheap. The ammunition for the rocket launcher bought by that old boy Dai Lin costs twenty gold coins per shot, which is enough to fire dozens of rounds of this almost thick shell. Sir Lothar can't understand.

The shells are all about the same thickness, and the rocket launcher only has a longer shell, but it’s not like the price difference is dozens of times?

"The thickness of this shell is about the same as the rocket shells that boy Dai Lin bought. How come the price is dozens of times different?"

Seeing Sir Lothar's confused look, Zhang Weidao explained to him the difference between the two in detail.

"The rockets purchased by Admiral Dai Lin have a very long range and can be launched to a distance of thirty kilometers. This is very practical in naval battles. A wave of intensive strikes can destroy many warships."

"This mortar is for land use. It has a range of five to six kilometers, and the price will naturally be much cheaper."

"Moreover, rockets are battlefield assault weapons, while mortars are battlefield continuous suppression weapons, and their battlefield positioning is also different."

After hearing Zhang Weidao's introduction, Sir Lothar finally understood that rockets are equivalent to cavalry that come and go like the wind. They are suitable for breaking into the battlefield and deciding the outcome in a battle. They are weapons used to break the situation and win decisively.

Mortars are heavy infantry on the battlefield, used to maintain formations and entangle enemies, creating attack opportunities for knights and mages.

Sir Lothar waved his hand on the spot and asked for all these mortars. Money is not an issue. I will immediately arrange for someone to take over.

"Sir, are there enough professional gunners? Although the operation is not difficult, it will be very troublesome for novices to train!"
