Chapter 862 How could it be so?
The lead wires of each cannon have been specially treated for waterproofing.
So even on a rainy day like this, just light the fuse with a torch.
Cannons can be fired normally.
This is what Ying Yu changed based on his own experience and the plots of the war movies he saw.
In a pinch, when you can't fire because the cannon's fuse gets wet, that's too much.
In order to prevent such things from happening, Ying Yu immediately emphasized the importance of lead wires when these artillery were designed.
At the same time, some modifications were made to the shells of the cannon.
So even in such a heavy rain, the rain will not wet the gunpowder inside along the wire hole.
To put it simply, no matter how heavy the rain is, as long as the fuse can be ignited, the cannon can be fired normally.
It's just that foreign devils don't understand these things at all.
They don't even know what's going on with the structure inside the cannon, and what principle it uses to fire ammunition.
They also don't know that this powerful artillery is composed of two parts.
The first part is naturally the cannon itself, and the second part is the ammunition in the cannon.
When they boarded the Daqin battleship, they only found cannons on the deck, but they didn't know that the ammunition in these cannons had already been unloaded and moved away.
Without the cannonballs, these big black killers are just a pile of useless scrap iron at the moment.
However, the generals of the coalition forces of these countries, they did not know.
At this moment, all of them are immersed in the joy of victory in the war
"With such a heavy rain, can this be ignited?"
"I don't know either, just try and find out."
"A bunch of idiots, look at the wires that have been specially waterproofed. No matter how heavy the rain is, they can ignite."
There is no need to worry about the last worry, the soldiers with torches are waiting for the final order.
Finally, under the expectation of everyone, the chief ordered the fuse to be ignited.
Holding the cannon and holding the torches, the soldiers also ignited the fuse in front of them with excitement.
Sparks danced above the shadow line. Although the heavy rain continued, although the sparks were weak, they still burned.
Soon after, sparks followed the hole into the cannon.
For the coalition forces who don't understand, this is of course the last step.
Next, they only need to wait for this big killer to show its power, and then they can directly win the war in one fell swoop.
However, after waiting for a while, they found that there was no movement after the cannon was lit.
At the beginning, they thought that such a powerful weapon would take some time to activate.
This is justified, otherwise, it would be too unreasonable for such a fierce weapon to be activated in an instant.
So they chose to wait, but after waiting for a long time, someone finally noticed something was wrong.
"Sir, at this speed, the lead wire would have already burned inside."
"Yes, but why is there no movement at all?"
At this moment, the generals in charge of giving orders also noticed that something was wrong.
So they hurriedly asked people to come forward to check, but after checking, they found that the fuses had been burned out.
There were no sparks in the cannon at all.
But looking at the appearance of these weapons, there is no sign of any activation at all.
Simply put, they failed to launch the first time.
It was the first time for the soldiers of the alliance to come into contact with such weapons, so they were naturally confused and didn't know what to do.
Fortunately, they found that there was the same lead wire next to it, so they directly took it and replaced it in the original position, and re-ignited it.
It didn't, however, as they made any progress after replacing the leads.
After the Martian disappeared, there was still silence.
After a short wait, they could finally confirm one thing.
That's how it works, there is no way to activate this batch of weapons.
What they've been trained to get here doesn't seem to have any effect at all.
Because of this simple operation, it is impossible for anyone to make a mistake.
However, Daqin's weapon cannot be activated at this moment, which can only explain one problem.
Their method of operation is inherently wrong, and they need to find another method to activate these destructive weapons.
At this time, all the officers who led the team finally started to panic.
Their operation this time went very smoothly, and they could have ended the operation immediately to win the war.
But now they have encountered such a problem, and they have no way to solve this problem in a short time.
It was also because of the emergence of the crisis that their already numb nerves became tense.
At this time, they finally realized that they didn't have much time.
Now all of them are in the camp of the enemy army.
If this war can be resolved quickly, then their safety is naturally not a problem.
But if they get stuck on this most important step, the longer they delay, the more dangerous they will be.
At this moment, although the army of Daqin has all gone to the banquet.
But when the banquet will end, they don't know. If they are discovered after the banquet, they may be in danger when facing the Daqin army.
So the most important thing right now is to quickly find out how to activate these weapons.
Almost all the officers personally came to the side of the artillery and began to check, trying to figure out how these weapons were launched.
But after checking for a period of time, they still had no clue about it.
During the period, I ignited the fuse several times and found that these things have not changed, and they cannot be started at all.
At this time, all the coalition soldiers finally began to panic.
The ultimate guarantee of their success in this operation is to use Daqin's warships to defeat Daqin's army.
But now they have achieved the goal of the first step and successfully captured the battleship of Daqin.
But the most important thing is that they have no way to activate the weapons on this battleship.
This is equivalent to that all the efforts they have made before can only be in vain.
If this weapon cannot be activated, even if they snatch these warships, it will be of no value.
Because of the large number of Qin's navy, it would be impossible to destroy these warships by manpower alone if they could not use powerful weapons such as artillery.
Just when the generals of the coalition forces were at a loss, flames suddenly lit up around them.
When the soldiers of the coalition army saw these flames, they were surprised to find out.
At some point, they were already surrounded.
All around are Daqin's warships, the shouts on the battleships are loud, and all the soldiers are ready to fight.
The shocking scene in front of them completely panicked all the soldiers of the coalition forces.
They didn't know which link went wrong, why there were so many ships on the sea that was empty just now, and they surrounded them.
Isn't what they robbed already the outermost ship of Daqin?
Why are there new ships on the periphery of these ships?
If it is the fleet that sailed from the inside, there is no reason why they would not have noticed such a big movement.
At this moment their operation has failed.
Trying hard all the time but not being able to activate Daqin's weapon was a fatal blow to them.
"Put down your weapon and kill with a straight neck."
Among the coalition forces of various countries, there are naturally people who are proficient in the Daqin language.
Now that their actions have been fully exposed, what awaits them can be said to be a dead end.
If Daqin's weapons can still be activated, they still have a chance to break through.
But that is already an unrealistic fantasy.
"How could this be?"
