Travel through the 1945 super power construction secret base

Chapter 398 Electromagnetic Gun Experiment

After greeting the leaders of the research institute and seeing that they all looked impatient, Wang Ze did not delay any longer.

Frederick held up the blueprint and said, "Chief, we need to drive steel into the mountain first, and then build a reinforced concrete platform."

Wang Ze took it and looked at it. It was not difficult for him, so he walked to the middle of the mountain platform. The materials in the warehouse next to it flew up, forming steel pillars that were deeply buried in the mountain.

Then the steel bars start to be automatically combined and then cement is poured in.

Wang Ze used his superpowers to directly speed up the solidification of cement, and the heat of solidification was also directly dissipated by his superpowers, which would not affect the hardening of cement.

Next is the base. The main body of the huge electromagnetic gun turret is made of light steel.

There is a nuclear power plant built inside the 100-meter-high tower.

This construction was far beyond Wang Ze's expectations and it took half a month to be completed.

The silver-white tower body and the diamond-shaped gun barrel extending forty meters make this electromagnetic gun feel very oppressive.

In the control room inside the tower, data brought back by a large number of sensors are collected here.

Only four people are needed in the control room to operate this electromagnetic gun.

"Let's give it a try." Wang Ze said with satisfaction as he looked at the big guy in front of him.

"Okay, I'll contact Andaman Island right away. A distance of 700 kilometers is enough to warm up this electromagnetic cannon." Frederick said confidently.

But having said that, the research institute has done a lot of preparatory work for this test launch.

In particular, the target sea area must be cleared.

After all, this was the first test firing of the electromagnetic gun. Although they were confident, what if there was an offset and the target was not hit?

The power of the electromagnetic gun is such that no matter what it hits, it will definitely be shattered into pieces.

After receiving the order, the garrison on Andaman Island immediately vacated a remote area and searched repeatedly within a radius of 30 kilometers to ensure that no people or vehicles entered.

Especially many Westerners, after playing in the Golden Island, will go hiking on the Andaman Island.

These reckless Westerners are the military's main targets for elimination.

Two days later, everything was ready.

Wang Jixin also came to the scene. He did not expect that Nanhua’s technology has reached this level.

In his eyes, this thing looked more like a weapon made by aliens.

Or it should be a weapon used to fight aliens.

It is a waste of talent to use it among humans on Earth.

According to the data given to him by the research institute, this electromagnetic gun placed in Xincheng can cover most of the Indochina Peninsula.

Even in Vietnam, only the northern part close to the mainland is out of range; all other places can be covered by this electromagnetic gun.

If an electromagnetic gun wants to hit an object at a distance of one thousand kilometers, it does not fire directly, but raises the muzzle 75 degrees to fire.

A muzzle velocity of 5 kilometers per second can fire projectiles or various specially processed shells.

However, today's nuclear bombs and particle weapons cannot be launched using this electromagnetic gun.

However, this is already the maximum distance of the electromagnetic gun. If the range is to be further increased, the projectile will be shot directly into space due to its high speed.

Although the test launch was kept confidential, various countries still received some information.

After all, such a big thing was built on the mountain, and people passing by were not blind, so it was discovered as soon as the control ended.

Although other countries did not know what this thing was, they knew from the huge gun body and barrel that it was very powerful.

Even the United States and the Soviet Union did not dare to underestimate South China's technological development.

Although their request for a visit was directly rejected, they still wanted to send a reconnaissance plane to take a look.

However, they were warned by Nan Hua’s radar base on Phu Quoc Island, which made it clear that anti-aircraft missiles would be launched if they continued to enter.

As a result, in the past two days, there are a lot more foreign tourists coming to Nanhua for tourism.

And each of them carried a professional camera.

Wang Ze knew what these people wanted to do, but at such a long distance, he couldn’t take any pictures.

Besides, the reconnaissance satellites of the United States and the Soviet Union are now practical, and it is impossible to keep such a large thing secret.

So Nanhua ignored these people who took their cameras on a self-driving tour on Nanhua Road.

Wang Ze, Wang Jixin and the people from the research institute were in the control room watching the technicians of the research institute constantly clicking various buttons.

At this moment, the internal computer is running at full capacity, calculating the shooting parameters.

After everything was ready, the first launch began at Wang Ze's command.

The electricity starts to charge quickly, BANG!

Even though they were in the control room, they could still hear a loud bang.

This is not the sound of traditional artillery gunpowder exploding, but the sound of electromagnetic gun shells tearing through the air.

Even though the recoil of the electromagnetic gun was very small, Wang Ze could already feel a slight vibration.

Everyone was in the control room, contacting the garrison on Andaman Island, waiting for the latest news.

Within two minutes, a report from the garrison on the Andaman Island came through the satellite intercom.

"We have observed artillery shells hitting the target area and are heading over to check," the garrison reported.

The garrison on Andaman Island quickly drove towards the target location.

They did not yet know the details of the experiment and did not know that the shell was fired from Xincheng.

Therefore, everyone can remain calm and just follow the process to confirm.

Upon arrival, we saw a piece of ground that had been specially cleared and paved with cement was breaking apart.

At the location where they were hit, a three-meter-deep pit appeared before their eyes.

The soldiers were filming with cameras. They walked carefully on the uneven ground created by the shock wave and soon arrived in front of the deep pit.

This was a deep pit that went straight into the ground at a 40-degree angle, and they couldn't see the bottom at all from the ground.

However, the news of the hit was transmitted back to the Xincheng electromagnetic gun base as soon as possible.

"Report, the electromagnetic gun experiment was successful and hit the target area. The hit point was 78 meters away from the target." The researcher reported loudly.

"Okay, it's a success. There is indeed nothing wrong with our idea." Frederick excitedly hugged the person next to him.

78 meters is nothing for an electromagnetic gun. Even without using high-powered shells and just firing projectiles, it can turn the target area of several kilometers into ruins.

As long as it's not too biased, it can be considered a success.

You have to know that the strike distance is more than 700 kilometers.

"Let them review what was filmed. If there's no problem, we'll broadcast it tonight." Wang Ze turned his head and said to Wang Chun.

He didn't want to keep this matter secret. It was such a big thing, instead of letting other countries guess, it would be better to tell them directly.

Wang Ze also wanted to know how the United States and the Soviet Union would react if they knew that their electromagnetic cannons could hit targets a thousand kilometers away.

It would be very interesting if the United States and the Soviet Union also followed up with research on electromagnetic guns.

High-energy physics, electromagnetic guns, I don’t know if there will be other things in the future, and I don’t know whether the United States and the Soviet Union can keep up with South China’s development.

Wang Ze thought with a wicked smile in his heart.
