The steam-assisted revolving gun was the Dwarves' Gatling gun. This weapon was powered by steam, and the ammunition was stored in the steam-powered backpack on Dugan Ironman's back. The rate of fire was about 300-400 rounds per minute, depending on the degree of overload and adjustment of the revolving gun barrel.
So far, a total of four of these super weapons of mass destruction had been produced. Unfortunately, the manufacturing of these revolving cannons required a special metal called "Granny's Meteorite Iron". This metal was only left in the Black Lake under Calac Vane in the old world. The rest could only be found in the Chaos Wasteland or the distant Nagaros. Dugan Man of Steel only had a part of the stock he got from the dwarves in Lone Dragon City, and it was almost used up.
At the same time, the Dwarfs also had a problem that needed to be solved, and that was the problem of overheating the weapon. Once this type of rotary cannon was fired for two to three minutes, it would be unable to continue firing due to the overheating of the device. It required a certain amount of time to cool down.
The worst thing was that Dugan Ironman had tried many methods, but none of them worked. Laing's water cooling method also didn't work. Too much steam would lead to an overload and an explosion.
In the end, the problem was solved in the magic workshop of Aurora, a Sanctum witch and the director of MI7. Aurora led a group of her ice witch apprentices to make a few bottles of "cooling liquid". When the revolving crank gun overheated, she poured the cooling liquid into the condenser tube to quickly dissipate the heat.
Of course, the price wasn't cheap. Aurora asked for 80 crowns per bottle.
Moreover, the cost of firing the revolving gun was extremely high. This type of gun couldn't use normal gun bullets or lead bullets. It also couldn't use the explosive bullets from Veronica's Magic Workshop. It could only use bronze bullets.
Bronze bullets!
One turn of the barrel and it cost 10,000 gold taels!
Dugan Tiehan casually fired a few times, and hundreds of copper bullets were wasted just like that.
Laing's heart was bleeding, and his smile became awkward.
Big brother, you should use it sparingly!
The Musilon Military Factory could only produce 10,000 bronze bullets, and the cost was astronomical.
"It's very powerful, especially at mid-range or close range. If the Orcs try to suppress us with their size, we'll make them suffer." Dugan Tiehan demonstrated it a few times and blasted the nearby targets into smithereens. The dwarf engineer only felt a little regretful. "The only problem is that it can't be fired for a long time. If the weapon overheats, it can easily cause the revolving crank gun to jam or malfunction. The coolant made by Lady Aurora is limited."
"How many bottles of coolant do you have?" Laing asked.
"Ten bottles. Madam Aurora is already rushing to make them. According to her, making this kind of cooling liquid consumes a lot of magic power." Dugan Steelman took out a glass bottle with a capacity of about 400 milliliters. Inside the bottle, there was a dark blue frost crystal liquid that was shaking back and forth. "A bottle of cooling liquid can allow the autocannon to fire at full speed for five minutes."
"That's enough, we only have about ten thousand bullets in total," Laing thought about it and sighed, "Brother Dugan, remember to use them sparingly."
"Hehe, I think so too." The Dwarf Engineer nodded with a smile. "Good! Are you ready, Your Majesty? When can we enter the battle? What about Pointy Ears? "
"Pointy Ears still needs some time to gather the army and prepare for the ceremony." Laing nodded. "Let's wait and train during this time. In a few days, when the news from the Wood Elves arrives, we can enter the Great Forest of Azoloth and prepare to set up the formation."
"Oh, we can finally enter the Great Forest of Pointy Ears and have a look!" Dugan Tiehan was very interested. "We said before that there are so many good hardwoods in the Great Forest. It's not a big deal to cut down a little …"
"Hey, don't tell that to the Wood Elves. It'll start a war." Laing squinted at him.
"Pointy Ears are always so annoying." Dugan Tiehan spread out his hands. "Your Majesty, the demonstration is over. I'll go back to adjust the weapons."
"Good." Laing nodded. Dugan Tiehan quickly took his son and two engineering apprentices down. The four Dwarven steam-assisted revolving crank guns would soon enter the battlefield.
"His Majesty Laing, my army and I also want to participate in this war." At this moment, Badr Crimson and his younger brother Tyr Crimson led the Northka Royal Dragon Hammer Dwarven Iron Hammer Warriors, a Shattered Iron Warrior Legion, and a Northka Dwarven Mammoth Butcher Legion. Badr still hadn't recovered from his father's decision. The two-hundred-year-old Great Lord placed all his hatred on Chaos. "Please, please, let us, the Northka Dwarves, who arrived first, join in."
"Good!" Laing didn't hesitate. "You will win new glory."
The Dwarf Legion of Lone Dragon City joined the army of knights!
Before he finished speaking, Duke Lauren and Duke Bodrick also arrived. Eight Brittany Paladins riding Hippogryphs descended from the sky. The Marshal of the Northern Legion and the Admiral of the Navy smiled and said to Laing, "Your Majesty, a new organization, we formed the Eye of the Sky Hippogryph Knight Brotherhood. We eight Hippogryph Knights are ready to listen to your orders!"
"I grant you the title of Royal Family!" Laing nodded. Eight Royal Hippogryph Knights! A force that could decide the outcome of the war at any time!
Under the leadership of the veteran Holy Grail Saint Pierre, fifteen Holy Grail hermits appeared in the camp. None of them rode a horse; all of them walked. Most of these Holy Grail hermits had white hair. None of them were younger than a hundred years old. There were even some who were two hundred years old. Each of them was a warrior who had their own epic and legendary journey.
After entering their final years or completing their mission, the Holy Grail Knights who were over the age of their prime would build a hut near the Holy Grail Church or the shrine of the Goddess in the Lake. They would offer their last strength to the Guardian Goddess and then silently die.
However, when they appeared on the battlefield, all the Bretons, including the other Knights of the Holy Grail, would be deeply inspired by the poise of these old seniors. Fighting together with living legends, even the blood in their veins would boil with excitement.
Brittany Epic and Legendary Holy Grail Hermits (15 people) joined the army of knights!
Then, the Goddess in the Lake appeared. The Goddess and her first chosen one, Morgiana, had already sent out an oracle. All the Holy Grail Knights in Brittany began to gather in Pallavon.
Sixty Knights of the Holy Grail were transferred from various kingdoms, ready to join this great war.
Brittania's epic legendary troop, "Goddess's Chosen" Holy Grail Knights (60 people), has joined the knight's army!
This was the heyday of the Knight King's Kingdom! Leon had never felt as strong as he did today. His army was strong and powerful, and his generals were all gathered together. Whether it was quality or quantity, the army he commanded had almost reached the most glorious period in Brittania's history.
Laing immediately decided to hold a grand military parade in Pallavon!
Just like that, on the last day of Year 2521 of the Empire calendar, the Knight King's Kingdom held the largest military parade in more than a hundred years in Pallavon.
The military band played.
In the deep and grand music, the army phalanxes were inspected by the Sun Wang Laing, Queen Suria, the Goddess in the Lake, and the Witch in the Lake.
"Jinkela ~ give it to him ~"
"Jinkela ~ give it to him ~"
The army was inspected one by one, and countless Brittany came to watch the ceremony. When these battle-hardened troops strode in front of the stage in a phalanx, a sense of national pride came from the depths of their blood. A strong sense of national glory and a strong sense of identity soaked the soul of every Brittany present.
Laing seemed to feel that his kingdom was at the peak of its power under multiple buffs.

After all the preparations were completed, a letter was sent out from Palawon and quickly arrived at the King's Grove in the Great Forest of Azeroth. It was delivered to Aleil's Chosen Champion, the Lord of the Tarsyn Forest, Aralos the Brave, who had basically gathered his army.
In the letter, Laing wrote: "Under the orders of the Lady, I am under the command of the Queen of the North, Birak is helpless, Obien is trampled, and all creatures bow their heads. Today, I command a million soldiers and a thousand members of the Holy Grail. I wish to hunt 'Shadow Spawn' Magurn in Amir and form an eternal alliance. I hope Your Excellency will travel day and night and not miss this opportunity."
Aralos: "?????"
A million soldiers? A thousand members of the Holy Grail?
Who are you kidding?
