Of course, considering that the budget of the Austrian military is not much, as long as a simple tail is added to the original design, it can be put into use directly. The Congreve rocket produced before will not be wasted. power.

Prefabricated fragments are to engrave grooves on the projectile body, or directly stick special hard metal pieces to the projectile body, and use the impact force to strengthen the damage to surrounding targets when the projectile explodes.

Historically, the Austrian Empire's research on rockets did not last long, and the rocket troops that were ordered to take the risk in the Battle of Sadowa did not play a role in turning the tide.

After that, the rockets faded out of people's sight, until the Austro-Hungarian Empire had insufficient firepower in the confrontation with Russia in World War I. Soldiers found these dusty weapons in the basement of the arsenal.

But there was no change in the situation of the war. On the contrary, it was taken by Russia, and the Katyusha rocket was made out of it, which severely beat the Third Reich. .

Not only the Austrians, but also the mainstream of the world's military circles at that time put precision at the top of their list, but they didn't know that as long as the power was enough and the number was enough, it didn't matter if they were accurate or not.

It's just that artillery doctrine is still a bit too advanced for people of this era.

"Frantz, if your modification is really effective, then we can let the Rocket Army concentrate its firepower and then make a breakthrough. Maybe we will go back to the era of column tactics." Albrecht said.

"Brother, if the opponent also has this kind of weapon, isn't the column tactic courting death? Hundreds of rockets are fired at it, not to mention the flesh and blood of soldiers, even battleships can't stand it." Friedrich retorted.

In 1827, the Austrian Navy attacked the Barbary pirates moored in the port of Morocco, and used 500 Congreve rockets to directly destroy the pirate's flagship and two capital ships.

"As the firepower of weapons continues to upgrade, gathering troops together in the future is courting death. Just like Grandpa Carl's judgment, the future is the era of skirmishers, and dense formations will be completely eliminated," Franz said.

"The skirmish formation can certainly reduce casualties, but how to ensure the morale of the soldiers? I think you should know that even my father admits that as long as the platoon leader is not restrained, the soldiers in the formation will immediately turn around and run away." Al Brecht said.

"Moreover, skirmishers have a natural enemy, that is cavalry. Even experienced fighters cannot maintain a stable hit rate in the face of cavalry charging at high speed. Back then, skirmishers in Napoleon's army, whether it was personal quality or discipline Sex and morale are top in Europe, but they still can't deal with those serfs on horseback." Friedrich added.

Serf on horseback is a derogatory term for the Russian Cossack cavalry. Europeans generally believe that the Russian cavalry lacks quality, has no tactics, and is nothing but barbaric.

Although the Russian Cossack cavalry won the victory in the end, they actually lost more than they won against the French cuirassiers. However, they almost never missed when they assaulted the elite French skirmishers or chasseurs.

"Low morale is due to lack of faith. They don't know why they are fighting. To deal with cavalry, you need weapons with a high rate of fire. If a soldier can fire more than three bullets in the ten seconds when the cavalry is rushing in front of you, you don't have to panic. Yet?"

"Faith? People in our country believe in Catholicism. Do you mean to eliminate the Protestants in the Austrian Empire?" Friedrich said.

It’s just that Friedrich and Albrecht’s faces were not very good after talking about it, because their mother and sister were Protestants, and due to the influence of the Austrian Empire’s religious freedom policy and joining the German Customs Union, the army is now from the North. There are not many Protestants in Germany.

"I'm not talking about religious beliefs, but beliefs about this country and this empire," Franz said.

"The soldiers of our empire only believe in two things, one is Catholicism, and the other is the family (referring to the Habsburg family). As for the imperial government and many local governments, they are in hostile relations. In addition, you have not seen those Hungarians. Did something?" Albrecht said.

"I'm just talking about a solution, and I know it can't be solved in the short term, but with education and publicity, there is still a way to convince most people of this." Franz said.

"Compared with those useless preaching, I think money is more convincing. As long as those soldiers are paid three times their wages, even the cowardly will dare to die." Friedrich's tone was indifferent, obviously he was doing it. Experimented.

"The treatment and status of soldiers must be improved, but they can't be maintained only by money. Wouldn't they become mercenaries?" Franz has always sneered at mercenaries due to his inherent modern thinking.

At this time Albrecht said.

"The current recruitment system in the country is an extension of mercenaries. I also like volunteers. They have strong combat effectiveness, obey orders, rarely flee, and even bring their own weapons and dry food. But when it comes to fighting, how many such soldiers can there be? How many times can you hit it, and how much will you have left?"

"We can enhance people's willingness to serve the country through propaganda and education, as well as improving the status of soldiers. We can also let the people indulge in the joy of victory and the beautiful fantasy of the future for a long time..."

"Frantz, I didn't expect you to be a Prussian lover. The idea that the army owns the country is very dangerous." Friedrich pointed to his head and said with a smile.

"Frantz, you prove that you are a kind man by finding a way to save the Hungarians. When an army owns a country, the people will suffer much more than they do now. You can ask the Prussians in your manor, Ask them if they would like to go back?" Albrecht said.

"Uncle Albrecht, I didn't expect you to mislead children with your honest and honest appearance." Franz said seriously.

Is working for a Junker landlord the same as working for a royal family? Franz's own operation, doesn't he know about it?

Albrecht was a little embarrassed. Is it easier for honest people to deceive people? How come I was caught when I lied to someone for the first time.

Friedrich complained from the side.

"Brother, do you think that both prosperity and death are ~lightnovelpub.net~ and the people are suffering. Who wrote that lyrics? Polish?"

Albrecht asked incredulously.

"How did you come up with such heavy lyrics, Franz?"

Franz shook his head and said.

"It's not what I thought of, but what I saw in a book."

"Then another question, Franz, do you know how long it takes for the fastest shooter in the world to fire three shots?"

"44 seconds."

Regarding Albrecht's self-questioning, Franz just shook his head, then opened a box, took out a revolver from it, and put it on the table.

"With this, the latest Colt revolver, anyone can fire six shots in five seconds."
