C649 Xia Lei's Cannon



C649 Xia Lei's Cannon

The Rayma Military Factory was as lively as ever. His previous interviews and visits were only a part of the celebration. The Rayma Military Factory's first artillery test was the main event of the celebration.    

    

A large group of people followed Xia Lei and left Rayma Military Factory, arriving at an empty land outside the new factory district.    

    

At the end of the clearing was a small hill, the top of which was bare. There was a target built out of concrete and steel. It was not very big, about the size of a capital tank.    

    

There was a makeshift stone platform in the clearing, covered with a large military canvas. From the outline of the canvas, there seemed to be a large object hidden inside, but because the canvas couldn't penetrate the light, the visitors couldn't see what was under the canvas.    

    

"It looks like a self-propelled cannon." An artillery expert beside Mu Jiangfeng said.    

    

The purpose of this visit to Rayma Military Factory's newly built artillery workshop was for Mu Jiangfeng to specially bring the artillery experts from the Shenzhou Industrial Group. The purpose was to determine what kind of level the current gun techniques in the Rayma Military Factory had reached. This was very important for Shenzhou Industrial Group who was producing heavy weapons.    

    

Mu Jiangfeng also carefully observed the military canvas covering, and said: "Looks like it is indeed self-propelled artillery, it is a big guy, but that is impossible, Rayma Military Factory's artillery production line has not been completed for long, how could it be possible for it to produce such a heavy weapon like self-propelled artillery?"    

    

The artillery expert from Shenzhou Industrial Group said, "That's right, it's easy to produce cannons, but it's not that simple to produce self-propelled cannons. It requires the technology of armoured vehicles and related fire control systems. In such a short period of time, how could the Rayma Military Factory create her own cannon? "    

    

Ye Kun moved closer, "Don't you forget, that brat's greatest strength is in winning by surprise. The more impossible it seems to us, the more possible it is. "    

    

Mu Jiangfeng frowned: "Ah Kun, you think that Xia Lei has already produced his own cannon?"    

    

Ye Kun nodded his head, his expression solemn.    

    

Self-propelled artillery was, to some extent, a tank, because, apart from the angle of fire, it was almost a tank. Its armor was weaker than the tank's, but much more powerful. Hence, in order to create heavy weaponry like self-propelled artillery, one must not only have the technology to fire the cannons, but also the technology to master the armoured vehicles, which was something that the Rayma Military Factory did not have right now. However, if there was a self-propelled cannon under the military canvas, it meant that the Rayma Military Factory had mastered this technique and used it in actual production. This was a very bad thing for the Shenzhou Industrial Group and the Hanwu Weapons Corp.    

    

Many people believed that there was a self-propelled cannon with the same size as a tank hidden under the military canvas. However, based on the current abilities of the Rayma Military Factory, no one was willing to believe that it could already produce such a heavy weapon.    

    

Time went back to the night two months ago.    

    

Long Bing suddenly turned around and pressed down on Xia Lei. With a commanding tone, she said to Xia Lei: "Go in!"    

    

However, Xia Lei suddenly thought of something, "Ah Bing, this time, the Rayma Military Factory has been upgraded to a completely new level. The first thing that was built was the artillery workshop, and the easiest thing to produce and put into the market was the artillery.    

    

Long Bing suddenly laid on Xia Lei's chest like a popped balloon, "You want to talk about cannons with me now?"    

    

Xia Lei said in a serious tone, "I just had an inspiration."    

    

"Alright, I'm impressed by you. What kind of inspiration is that?"    

    

"I don't know what's going on, it's too fast, I don't know what inspiration it is. But I'm sure you must have triggered it. "    

    

"Me?" Long Bing looked confused, she could not think of what she had done to stir Xia Lei's inspiration.    

    

"Right, you, I have a premonition, it's amazing. If I can catch it, it will become a stunning character in the Cannon world." Xia Lei was very excited.    

    

"Are you really going to talk to me about your cannon at this time?"    

    

"Why don't you do everything you've done just now again? Maybe I'll be able to catch that inspiration." Xia Lei could not wait any longer, "Hurry up."    

    

Long Bing nodded gloomily, climbed down from Xia Lei's body, and returned into his embrace once more. Then, she placed a hand on his abdomen and slid it down.    

    

"What are you doing?" Xia Lei was suddenly nervous.    

    

"Didn't you ask me to repeat what I did just now?" Long Bing was not affected by his attacks.    

    

Xia Lei frowned, "Then you continue."    

    

"What are you thinking?"    

    

"What else can I think?"    

    

"That's funny."    

    

"Yeah, this is so funny."    

    

"Can we not be so funny?"    

    

"Then what are we doing?"    

    

"Get in!"    

    

Xia Lei suddenly called out, "Wait ? Say that again! "    

    

"What else?"    

    

"Just now!"    

    

"Give me ?"    

    

"Speak." Xia Lei's eyes were full of desire.    

    

Long Bing said fiercely: "Go in!"    

    

Xia Lei was startled for a moment, and then suddenly laughed out loud, "That's it, that's it ? I understand, this is great! "    

    

"Good my ass!" Long Bing grabbed the pillow beside him and smashed it onto Xia Lei's head ?    

    

Time returned to the present.    

    

Amongst the spectators, Long Bing stopped and looked at the military canvas as a faint smile surfaced on her lips. She never thought that she would be able to help Xia Lei in his career, but the first gun in Rayma Military Factory actually had her contribution. Every time she thought of this, she felt a sense of accomplishment, and couldn't help but be happy.    

    

"What are you laughing at?" Tang Yuyan moved closer to her.    

    

"Do I need to tell you what I'm laughing about?" Long Bing had initially been thinking about that night's romantic story, but after being interrupted by Tang Yuyan, that happy feeling immediately disappeared.    

    

"It's rare for you to smile a few times a year. If you do, something must happen." Tang Yuyan said.    

    

Long Bing ignored Tang Yuyan.    

    

"Never mind, I'm not interested in knowing if you don't tell me." Tang Yuyan pointed to the military canvas on the stone platform, "A lot of people are guessing that there is a self-propelled artillery, what do you think?"    

    

"Xia Lei's cannon is of course the best." Long Bing seemed to have thought of something, and her expression was a little strange.    

    

"What kind of cannon are you talking about?" Tang Yuyan's sixth sense was even stronger.    

    

"Yes, yes." Long Bing coughed dryly, "Of course it's a cannon, otherwise what kind of cannon do you think it is?"    

    

"I'm asking about the cannon under the canvas. What cannon are you talking about?"    

    

"I'm talking about the cannon under the canvas, of course."    

    

"What kind of cannon is it?"    

    

"Bullsh * t your head! If you continue spouting nonsense, I'll shoot you!" Long Bing was getting impatient.    

    

Tang Yuyan laughed: "Did you take the wrong medicine? "Give me a shot, do you have a shot?" Pausing, she probed: "Have you seen Xia Lei's Cannon before?"    

    

Long Bing, "..."    

    

Amidst the messy conversation between the two women, Xia Lei, accompanied by Liu Zhengnan, climbed the mountain and built a temporary stone stage. Everyone's eyes were focused on Xia Lei.    

    

"Xia Dong, take it off." Liu Zhengnan said.    

    

Xia Lei nodded his head, and grabbed onto a corner of the military canvas. Then, he shook it.    

    

The military canvas was lifted off the ground and swept down with the wind. The stone platform revealed a rectangular wooden platform. On the wooden platform, there was a red woolen blanket. On the woolen blanket, there was a strange, 1.5 meter long cannon. It has a diameter of about 60 mm and is only equivalent to a light mortar.    

    

However, it was not a mortar.    

    

Its body was much longer than that of a mortar. Strangely, its frame was made up of two parts rather than a triangular frame, and part of it was a straight alloy frame that could be rooted to the ground. There was only one. The other part was a composite support frame. It was the shape of a clam shell, but it was not purely a clam shell. Rather, it had a very complicated mechanical structure.    

    

"Damn, what is this?" Amongst the spectators, Shenzhou Industrial Group's artillery expert stared with wide eyes, but she could not see through the situation, she did not even know what was going on.    

    

"So it's not a self-propelled cannon. What kind of cannon is this?"    

    

"Can this thing fire?"    

    

"We can definitely fire the cannons, but I suspect that we can only shoot for a hundred meters. Haha, Rayma Military Factory is going to make a fool of herself this time."    

    

"Put away the good XL2500 sniper rifle and blast assault rifle not to produce, and learn how to make cannons from others, isn't that just smearing dust on your own face?"    

    

"I really don't understand what Xia Lei is thinking."    

    

"Yeah, young people these days love to show off, trying to make something strange out of it."    

    

With such a large amount of discussion, almost no one was optimistic about this type of miniature cannon that no one had ever seen before.    

    

Only Long Bing appeared with that strange miniature artillery shell, causing the smile on her face to become even more obvious.    

    

In the midst of the questioning voices, Xia Lei picked up the miniature cannon that had a peculiar shape, and opened up the clam shell shaped support structure on the tail of the cannon. What happened next left everyone dumbfounded. The strange looking tail frame automatically opened up and wrapped itself around his shoulders. In just a few blinks of an eye, the tail frame had fused with his body, becoming one with the human cannon!    

    

"It's actually this kind of design?" Some people were very surprised.    

    

"This kind of design is just an opportunistic trick." An artillery expert said.    

    

"Right, the power of the cannons is very strong, and the recoil is also very shocking. When he combines the cannon and his body, the recoil from the cannon will shatter his shoulders! "    

    

"How is this a cannon? It's simply a suicide weapon! Besides surprising people, what other use is there for it to be designed like this?" Another artillery expert said.    

    

Indeed, the recoil of artillery was not comparable to that of guns. The power of gunpowder from a single shell was hundreds or even thousands of times greater than that of guns and ammunition. Some ordinary people would find the recoil of the shots somewhat unbearable, let alone the artillery. From this point of view, the cannon that Xia Lei had designed was a suicide weapon.    

    

But was that really the case?
