Hiss... Krupp took a breath and looked at Xiao Letian with an incredible look, "You...what do you mean?"

In the history of artillery evolution, there is a very big technical difficulty in developing from pre-installation to post-installation, which has always plagued scientists from countries around the world.

This is the problem of air leakage at the tail. As we all know, the shells and the shells of artillery are installed at the tail of the barrel. The shells require high-temperature and high-pressure gas provided by the explosion, so as to drive the shells to fly and kill the enemy.

Since the tail of the rear-loading gun is open, there is a movable gun latch to load ammunition, which brings about a sealing problem, and the burning tail flame will inevitably leak out of the gap.

Although the principles of artillery and muskets are the same, the number they install is not the same order of magnitude at all. The artillery will produce more high-temperature and high-pressure combustion gases during explosion.

If the latch of the rear-mounted cannon is not tightly sealed, these high-temperature and high-pressure gases will be sprayed out of the gaps. At the very least, it will cause energy leakage, affect the range and power of the cannon, and at the very least, it will form a fatal tail flame.

Before the Pakatan Harapan War, Krupp had produced several models of rear-mounted artillery, but none of them solved the problem of tail flame leakage. In addition, two of the accidents also caused casualties and injuries to soldiers operating the artillery.

The high temperature burned the soldiers directly, and some soldiers even died of serious injuries.

Such cannons must not be sent to the battlefield. Before they can kill the enemy, they will burn their operators to death! Wouldn't this be a joke?

Not only Prussia is troubled by this problem, but also by the army of Britain, France and the United States.

After the Pakatan Harapan War, Krupp learned from his mistakes and invested huge sums of money to solve this major technical problem in the history of artillery evolution.

God bless Prussia, just last year Krupp finally came up with a mature and stable plan and launched the latest artillery.

This kind of artillery completely solved the problem of tail flame leakage, which increased the safety performance of the rear-mounted artillery by dozens of times. Not only that, because the tail seal is stricter, the loss of kinetic energy of this artillery is very small.

*After the explosion, all kinetic energy is released towards the muzzle, so that the shells can get more energy bonus and will naturally fly farther and hit more accurately.

In this way, when the charge amount is equal, the range of the new gun is more than twice that of the old front-loading gun!

This is obviously the highest secret of the Prussian military, but I didn’t expect that Xiao Letian would open his mouth and point out this layer of window paper today!

When Xiao Letian saw the panic and fear in Mr. Krupp's eyes, he knew that he had hit him.

The head of state sneered and said, "Please don't forget that we and Prussia are paramilitary alliances and will also go to the battlefield in the future!"

"We Chinese army can also have the secret weapons that Prussia has! Now please take out your latest model of cannon!"

"Damn it! Who told you? Is it Pesme? Or Moltke? They are treason! I want to sue them at the king!"

Xiao Letian curled his lips, "Okay, sir, don't act here! No one told me, I just inferred through some common sense."

"In the second half of last year, the Prussian military suddenly added a huge order of 623 cannons to the Krupp Arsenal! This is very contrary to common sense. Why did this happen? I think there is only the explanation of the new cannon!"

"At this moment, Prussia is already in the state of preparation for war. Military expenditure can be said to be a copper plate that needs to be broken into two halves. The artillery has already placed an order three or four years ago. Why did such a large order suddenly be added last year?"

"Be honest, dear Mr. Krupp, bring out your latest weapons, which will benefit both of us, what do you think?"
