Blessing from the goddess at the beginning, technology VS magic

After reading the information sent by Abe, Rhett also understood that the enemy's dragon knights could not launch precise attacks from an altitude of more than a thousand meters. In most cases, they still fought hand-to-hand on the ground, and there were not many dragon knights to deal with. This made Rhett I thought of ways to deal with them.

He is going to Vic City to ask Scott and Conrad to make a weapon to restrain the Dragon Knight.

woohoo~

The train blew its whistle, indicating that it was about to enter the station. Rhett, who had previously used the telegraph machine for experiments, stayed here to facilitate communication. Because of the telegraph machine, Scott and Condra also knew early that Rhett would be coming today. In Vic City, the two of them have been waiting at the station for a long time.

Since the three of them often discussed technical issues, they went straight to the topic without too many polite words.

Scott asked: "Your Highness, is there anything new you want us to complete this time?"

"Yes, it's just that this mission is relatively simple, but you still have to work together to complete it."

"Don't worry, Your Highness! We promise to complete the mission," Condra said excitedly.

Rhett smiled and said: "That's good, let's find a place to talk in detail first."

"Your Highness, please come with me."

Scott leads the way.

Soon, the three of them came to a spacious and heavily guarded room with a large blackboard and some experimental equipment.

Rhett didn't waste any time and said straightforwardly: "You should know that the war is about to begin. It's hard to say who will win and who will lose among us ground troops. We have already dealt with magicians and knights. Not only that, we have also fought with We have fought against huge waves of monsters, but this time, we have to face an unprecedented threat."

"What is it?" Scott asked.

"Aerial threat!" Rhett replied: "We don't have any weapon that can shoot down the other side's flying dragons very well. They will continue to hover in the air, threatening our artillery positions and supply lines, as well as the soldiers on the front line. Huge trouble”

Condra said, "Then what are we going to do?"

"Stop them. Fortunately, there are not many flying dragons. There are only about 20 of them. We need to use a big net to stop them."

Scott was a little confused: "Net? To intercept the flying dragon, the net should be a vertical plane? How are we going to pull the net up? Unless it can be hung in the sky."

"That's right! It's meant to be hung in the sky! I want you to make an airship and use it to pull up this big net."

"airship?!"

Then Rhett began to explain the principles of airships to the two of them, and Scott and Condra listened attentively.

After finishing, Condra said excitedly: "Why didn't I think of this? Hydrogen is lighter than the air we breathe, and it can fly when filled into an air bag!"

While Scott was excited, he also thought of a question: "Your Highness, is the airship too fragile? If there is only one hole, wouldn't the entire airship be scrapped?"

Rhett said: "So you can't put all the eggs in the same basket. Wouldn't it be better to put a small airbag inside the big airbag of the airship? Even if there is a hole on the outside, it will not affect the other airbags."

Scott understood immediately: "Yes, it seems that His Highness has considered everything. Then I only need to be responsible for manufacturing Feiting, and leave the preparation of hydrogen to Condra."

"Actually, I also have a question, Your Highness," Condra asked.

"you say"

"What we want to intercept is the flying dragon. As far as I know, the most common flying dragons can also use breath. What if they directly use their breath to destroy our airship or interception net?"

"You don't have to worry about burning the airship. According to my drawings, our airship can reach an altitude of 1.5 meters. It will also reach a height of about 7000 meters with the iron chain interception net mounted below. Feilong wants to destroy it. Or you have to consume more energy to cross over, and our interception net does not only have one layer, their flying altitude can only be maintained above 7000 meters. The breath is the same, they can melt the iron chain, but what awaits them behind is There are 50 identical interception nets

Then there is no need to arrange iron chains at the bottom of the interception net. Remember, our goal is not to stop the flying dragon knights, but to force them to land and walk on the ground. "

Scott said: "What we need to worry about now is whether we can produce so many airships and chains in one and a half months."

Rhett patted him on the shoulder and said, "Believe in our people."

Afterwards, Rhett ordered the country to enter a state of first-level combat readiness, with all factories giving priority to the production of war equipment and entering wartime work mode.

The Republic of Sunshine is now a huge machine, and every gear on it is running at high speed.

Soon, on the northern border, airships rose into the sky one after another, dragging long iron chains underneath, densely packed, forming a steel sky net.

When General Enoch came for reconnaissance with the dragon knight again, he also discovered these iron nets. His first reaction was: Oh? It's kind of interesting. The chain can actually rise into the air. It's really interesting. Let me see how high this thing can be!

The flying dragon that Enoch sat down began to climb vertically, and finally reached an altitude of 7000 meters. The flying dragon was still panting from exhaustion while flying at this altitude. When Enoch saw that it was a huge ball dragging an iron chain and flying into the sky, he couldn't help but be stunned. It was funny. He approached the airship and drew his sword and poked it. He thought the ball would explode, but after it was poked, there were still many small balls inside, so he could only poke them one by one.

Finally, he got fed up and let the flying dragon burn the airship with one breath, and then the breath ignited the hydrogen inside. Enoch was so close that he didn't expect that this thing would explode, and he would be burned by the flames generated by the explosion. Face, this chain did not fall down, because there were other airships dragging it next to it, but the overall height dropped a little.

Angry and angry, he controlled the flying dragon to burn down a dozen airships around him. Then the flying dragon was exhausted, and today's reconnaissance could not be completed.

The next day, Enoch brought more flying dragon knights. He originally wanted to destroy the iron net in one fell swoop, but found that all the balloons destroyed yesterday had been replaced. At this time, his subordinates suggested: "Why don't we directly How about burning a hole in this chain and flying over it?"

Enoch thought this was a good idea, so several flying dragons began to exhale one after another, creating a larger gap. They collectively went deeper through the gap, only to find that there was another net in front of them. They had no choice but to continue burning.

Then the third and fourth routes, the flying dragon knights finally arrived near Anru City and completed today's reconnaissance mission.

A few days later, Enoch reconnoitred again, and he saw the iron net before flying very far. Have these guys already arrived here?

As usual, they continued to burn, but this time they burned more than 30 times, and still couldn't see the end, so they could only return without success. When they went back, a flying dragon knight said: "Lord Enoch, there seems to be no obstruction under this iron fence." ah?"

Enoch took a closer look and saw that there really wasn't one. What was going on?

"Mud-legged people are just mud-legged people. They are not very smart. They only know how to build these useless iron nets in the sky, but ignore the ground. Don't they know that flying dragons can not only fly, but also walk on the ground?"

"Ha ha ha ha…"

Everyone laughs

Enoch didn't say anything. Maybe this was really an oversight by the enemy, or there were some traps down there, but when the flying dragon knight returned, he walked down there without encountering any traps. It seemed like this was really an oversight by the enemy, but no. Knowing why, he still felt uneasy.
