Chapter 154: Super cannon

Biquge EbookFREE.me, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!
In fact, the German Siegfried line of defense is not completely present on the drawings, and part of it does exist-although this part is very small and very small.
But it does exist, and it looks majestic. Germany did build a high-standard fortress on a hilltop near the German-French border. Reinforced concrete is up to five meters thick, with machine gun shooting positions and bunkers, bunkers equipped with artillery, and invisible barbed wire.
What is more frightening is that the high ground of this fortress is connected with rails, and two fortified cannons are laid out. These two terrible cannons are protected by 350 mm armored iron plates, and the caliber is even more impressive. After the fear of 381 mm.
The reason why we chose to build such an almost useless defense line here is not because it is easy to defend and difficult to defend, but because of its unique geographical conditions. Here, one side is close to the big forest filled with white mist, making it impossible to see how long the defense line lasting in the past is. On the other side is a higher mountain, and the strange stone forest can't see another position above.
Speaking of which, I think everyone understands it. It's actually similar to the set-up shed of the Bayi Studio. They are all props used for real play. But when Acador accompanied Smith and the French military attaché in Germany to visit here, the layout here was still shocking.
When Smith looked at a yellow warning sign with a skull and a minefield not far from where he got off, they really felt a hint of war. Several people walked carefully along with the German officials and several civilian personnel, listening to the German officials bragging to the head of state about the unbreakable nature of this fortification.
"My head." Colonel Frederick was the commander of the 7th Infantry Division of the National Defense Forces. His troops were responsible for the defense of this section of the border, so he naturally became an actor here: "Once the enemy attacked, our immediate The defense line can deploy 400 heavily armed soldiers who can repel any offensive from the other side. "
He pointed to all the trenches made of reinforced concrete at the foot of Akado, as well as the reserved concealed machine gun bunkers, and pointed to the triangular anti-tank piles welded together not far away and said: "Deployed in the fortress The anti-tank artillery at the anti-tank artillery position can easily repel the enemy ’s tank. The infantry is handed over to the machine gun to kill it. "
These are all minor incidents. What really made the French officials aware of the two majestic 381 mm caliber fort cannons on the top of the fortress. With these two super cannons, what a heavy price will the French attack pay? One can imagine.
Smith leaned close to Akado: "Dear Head of State, the Siegfried line has always been a proud line of defense in Germany. You took it out today, not just to deter France?"
"The Siegfried line is only a German shield. There is nothing to show off!" Akado whispered with a smile, but the sound was not loud but the French officials behind him could hear: "In fact, we have a new style. Weapons can destroy the Kerch fortress that is stronger than the French Mackinac line, so dare to show off their defense so blatantly. "
The French official sneered and interrupted Akado ’s ostentation: "This is impossible! Yuan is born first. It is impossible for our country's Mackinaw line to be captured! It is the strongest super line in the world!"
"Oh? Really?" Frederick looked very disdainful and sneered, his face full of disdain.
Seeing Frederick's disdain, the French officials were even more angry. Akado glanced at Colonel Smith who was beside him, pointing to the front and saying, "Come on, see what kind of weapon we have prepared!"
A group of people hurriedly ended their visit to the fortress and rushed to the railway line behind the fortress. After getting off the bus, everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them. They vowed that for the first time in their life, they saw such a huge land war machine, a three-story oversized carriage, a barrel like a giant chimney pointed directly at the sky, and a whole battalion of soldiers was busy in various positions. It's hot.
Frederick turned his head and secretly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. His troops were real infantry divisions, not to mention operating such a fake cannon, just to give them a real cannon that could start. It's a bless.
Akado didn't think so, but he and Krupp repeatedly confirmed it for a long time before formulating such a deception plan. In fact, the whole cannon was just a removable coat, and inside was a fixed protection on the barrel. The 1919 Collector's Edition Paris Cannon at the Krupp factory in the circle.
This cannon is really a weapon that Krupp personally hid to prepare for a counterattack in the future, but it is not as powerful as the legend of outsiders-he did not put this cannon upright and built a brick to disguise as a chimney, but instead The cannon was just thrown there, and then a layer of earthy yellow paint was painted on the outside, and the prosecutor was bribed to say it was a scrapped barrel.
Since there is a real cannon hidden inside, this super powerful cannon can really be fired, and Akado and Krupp did not intend to let it actually shoot out the shells, just use the propellant to make the fake cannons fire. Shouted, and the muzzle propellant was just sprayed out. It is not necessary to consider that the launching sound is heard by the Parisian cannon because the whole cannon coat is like a hollow clock. The sound must be louder and more pleasing.
"My God! How big cannon is this?" Smith was stunned by the sight in front of him. Even the length of the chimney seems to be too exaggerated, than the barrel of the Paris cannon he saw at the Krupp factory. It was a few meters longer, caliber ... Caliber was something he had never heard of.
"This weapon was just produced and is still in the experimental stage, but it can destroy fortifications more than a dozen meters underground." Akado pointed to the train gun in the distance, which only he and Krupp knew. Half of the joysticks can't be moved, while the other half of the joysticks and the knobs that the soldiers shake wildly are simply screwed on the iron pipe with a screw.
"We will see with our own eyes the most powerful artillery in human history for test firing. We hope that the weapons of our Krupp factory can bring peace to the world and also contribute to Europe's resistance to the invasion of ." Akado smiled Continue.
"I think it has a caliber of at least 600 mm." A French officer sighed behind.
Friedrich stood up at the right time and proudly introduced: "Dora the King of Artillery is an 800mm caliber cannon that can shoot more than a ton of shells for dozens of kilometers."
At this time, an IDF artillery soldier came behind carrying a tray, which was used to plug ears. Akado smiled and picked a pair, then turned back to Smith and said: "This weapon has many shortcomings, for example, the sound is too loud. So we have to do some special preparations, otherwise you will suffer for a few weeks."
Of course Smith would not embarrass his ears, Congruu brought earplugs, then smiled at Akado and signaled that he could not hear, and Akado also brought earplugs: This cannon is not normal, the surroundings are still from Berlin The film production company invited four professional special effects artists, which is definitely a very real super experience.
Such a grand scene is certainly not wasted. There are four cameras recording this precious shooting scene, which will be used in the military propaganda movie "Imperial Cannon". This is a hugely-funded war blockbuster, starring popular male and female stars, and the heroine is the popular movie star Ingrid Bergman. The recycling cost has reached such a point that even Akado was shocked by the military's arrangements. .
In fact, the National Defense Force has used so many aspects, and is not worried that these people will leak, because the artillery does exist, and what these photographers and stunt teams say is to increase the momentum and effect when the artillery is fired, so even if someone publicizes the artillery, Fake, it is impossible to believe.
After everyone was ready, the busy "artillery" began to gather with a whisper of passwords, running away from the firing position, the alarm echoed in the sky, and everything was ready for the launch of this giant cannon.
After a short wait, the cannon finally fired with a blast, and black smoke emitted from the barrel. The entire firing position shook the ground, and even the dust and gravel were shaken off the ground, originally set at two hundred The head of state and others in the visiting area outside Mi Kai were also blown by the huge airflow and covered their hats.
The largest artillery developed since the birth of human civilization issued its roar. The black smoke at the muzzle did not disperse for a long time. Everyone was stunned by the momentum of this weapon. There was no one to speak in the entire visiting area for a long time.
I really want to make such a real guy! Sure enough, no matter who watched a shot, he would be immediately conquered by such domineering. Akado looked at the distant train guns and applauded. This is a kind of commemoration. The commemoration of this weapon will not appear again in this time and space, commemorating the death of this human civilization in pursuit of the ultimate spirit. Akado is very grateful that he resisted this weapon in his soul, otherwise, just watching such a cannon roar will immediately become a brain powder for this weapon-as long as you have seen this thing launched, there will be a kind of Believe that the enemy will urge to surrender immediately.
Frederick clapped, and he was the person in charge of the task. Now that everything is going well, he finally put down his tight nerves and nodded gently to the adjutant beside him.
The adjutant immediately noticed and waved his hand to the distance. A command came from a distance, and soldiers with gas masks lined up to the cannon and began to "clean up" the firing position.
Akado took off his earplugs and turned back to ask Colonel Smith: "How is it?"
Smith also pinched the earplugs in his palm and nodded and replied loudly: "It's really a good weapon."
