Chapter 711 The revealed heart

He had envisioned many plans for the development of new artillery.

As the saying goes, there is no best weapon, only the most suitable weapon. Combined with considerations such as combat opponents, battlefield environment, production level, etc., he finally chose mortars that can be far and near and are cheap to replace the outdated front-mounted field guns.

Its range can effectively cover areas of 200 to 3,000 meters, fill the gap between heavy machine guns and fortress cannons, and enhance the strike effect within a close range.

Due to the existence of a desperate defense line, the most important function of the mortar is to make up for leaks. It can be carried by soldiers, crossed mountains and ridges, and established artillery positions at any location among the mountains. It is light and easy to port, which is difficult for other weapons to reach.

In addition, the height difference between the foothills is very common, and the curved firepower can exert its maximum power in this terrain.

And the production level of Winter City is the reason why Roland finally made this decision.

The structure of the mortar is much simpler than that of howitzers. The shell shell can be made of cast iron, and the cylinder body has no rifle, which requires lower production requirements and will not affect the production capacity of the 152mm gun.

If a small-caliber field gun is developed, whether it is a stationary retreat redirection, a rifled gun barrel, or a corresponding trigger fuse shell, it will conflict with the fortress gun currently being attempted to produce independently.

When the new machine tools and processing technology have not yet been fully tested, even if the attempt fails, Anna will use black fire to supplement the key components of the fortress cannon as an emergency measure, and the impact will not be too great.

But with the addition of new field artillery, the production pressure will inevitably increase exponentially, and the First Army may be in a dilemma of no artillery available.

In addition, Roland also considered developing grenades for individual soldiers as supplementary weapons, and even made several samples for testing. However, the performance of the test items loaded with black gunpowder was really unbearable to look at. It may be of some use in the city war to recover Graycastle, but its power is not enough to be seen in the face of evil beasts and devils.

Considering that Wu Dongcheng's chemical production capacity was not as luxurious as to distribute grenades loaded with double-based gunpowder to every soldier, he had to give up this plan.

……

After nightfall, Roland walked down the second floor and gently knocked on the door of Anna's bedroom.

With a creaking sound, Anna poked her head out from behind the door, and she looked quite surprised when she saw it was him.

However, this surprise lasted less than a second, and soon a light red appeared on her bright face.

Walking into the room, Roland picked her up from behind, came to the bed with her, and fell back on the soft big bed with her.

How did you...

Anna's blue eyes shone like a dazzling gem in the night.

Generally, she would take the initiative to find Roland two or three times in a week. According to her, this frequency would not affect her daily work.

Of course, if Roland asked, she would not refuse.

But since he confessed his feelings for Nightingale, he always felt very guilty and hadn't taken the initiative to ask Anna for a long time.

And it was the first time she came to Anna's room in person. Although she was the only one among all the witches living alone, Ye Zi and Shu Ci fell asleep next door. Considering the sound insulation problem, the two of them would always communicate their relationship in depth upstairs. In such a situation, it is not a surprise to Anna.

I want to talk to you about the dream world, Roland whispered in her ear, "I don't have time to say it in detail in the afternoon, you also want to know more... about the life I have experienced in the past."

What you dream of is another world?Anna quickly guessed a corner of the truth.

That's right, it's like a world built on my memory, but it has many special features, such as the power of nature that is very similar to magic...

The night she told Anna, Roland discovered that she was not ignorant of the Nightingale, but from the beginning to the end, she had been waiting for her to speak out.

From then on, he understood Anna's approach. Although she would not hide her emotions or thoughts in front of him, there were some things that she would still be patient. The only reason was that she might not want to make things difficult for him.

This made Roland vaguely worried. He didn't know where this boundary was.

If one thing and two things continue to accumulate, will it make her gradually change to the direction of hiding her mind and being silent? Instead of becoming taciturn because of fear of hurt, he prefers Anna who now trusts her wholeheartedly and speaks out.

So Roland didn't plan to hide anything from her anymore, even if she didn't ask about it on her own initiative, he would tell her.

Anna obviously saw his thoughts, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly. I know, so let's start with your residence. In her dream, do you also live in the castle?

No, it was a tube building, similar to an apartment that lived with many people. Everyone had a small suite, and there was a person you would never guess in my room.

Well... it's not Jieluo, right?

Puff, why?

It's very simple. You said that you only had such a dream after defeating Jieluo in the soul battlefield. Half of the birth of the dream is related to you, but the other half is related to her, right?It is not surprising that two people who created the world appeared in one place.But... she didn't attack you again later, right?

No, she lost all the memories before she woke up and became a teenage boy, the kind of guy who clearly has no hair but feels that she knows everything.

In his teens, he lives together again... Has she become your family?

Well, Jieluo came to me by her parents' foster care, so she is considered a tenant.

So, then you have to take good care of her.

Why?That's a dream.

But aren't you saying that there is no difference from reality?Since that's the case, why bother to distinguish whether it is a dream?

Roland once again marveled at Anna's different thinking from ordinary people. The chat content seemed to be running wildly in the direction of derailment, but seeing Anna's energetic eyes and an interesting tone, he was too lazy to mind these details.

From the Soul Tower to the memory segment, from the power of nature to the Martial Arts Association, to the end of the conversation, Anna's voice gradually subsided and she laid on Roland's arm, her chest undulating slightly, and her breathing became more and more stable... Although she was already asleep, her other hand firmly held his waist, as if she didn't want him to leave. In this way, he could not return to the bedroom without disturbing her.

Well, just spend the night here, hoping that no one will notice him coming out of the second floor bedroom tomorrow morning.

Roland kissed Anna's smooth forehead and hugged her and fell asleep together.
