"If you want to build an army, you just need to find some people, fire a few guns, and teach them to fire.
It is also easy to prepare an air force. Anyway, as long as you can drive, you can fly a simpler plane. Pilots in past wars were recruited temporarily.
But what about the navy? Since BC, the navy has been a professional service. The officers of the navy are noblemen in the military. They are honor and pride. It is not so easy to start a boat. Rest assured, ‘Aurora Legion’ has no ability to come against us. "
Navy consultant George from ‘Enclave’ was drunk drunk and pulled his crew to brag. He kept shouting at how rare his talent was, even how powerful it was to command a fleet of armed speedboats.
But in fact, Mr. George ’s self-confidence is not based on his own strength, but on his opponent ’s weakness. Just when ‘Enclave’ decided to send Marshall and George ’s military advisory team to the Caribbean Sea to make troubles for ‘Aurora Legion’, it also sent many intelligence personnel to act as refugees and mixed into the Nassau. Some of these people were caught and some lurked.
Mr. Wade is such an intelligence officer. When the nuclear bomb has not washed the ground, he entered ‘Aurora Legion’ as a refugee. Because he was a mechanic, he was quickly reused and entered the industrial revitalization plan of the industrial director Dr. Rezzo, working in the steel workshop.
After the nuclear bomb washes the ground, Wade once felt his spy mission ended. But now he was activated by ‘Enclave’ with a radio station to collect all information about ‘Aurora Legion’.
Lena Fox got a lot of industrial equipment from Newport News Shipyard, and now these industrial equipment are installed in Nassau shipyard. When the nuclear winter comes, the shipyard's task is simple-a large number of conversions to produce small steamers, the more the better.
"Using the power of the" Aurora ", the ship repair yard of Nassau has established smelting, casting and machining workshops. The materials come from various waste vehicles and ships. Their current products are steam engines and boilers of 20 to 100 horsepower , Mainly used for power generation, heating and ship power.
Because the technology is simple, the output of these steam engines and boilers is not small. Nassau is now equipped with boilers in public places for heating and hot water supply. After killing half of the population, the situation of Nassau freezing dead has been greatly reduced.
Hundreds of 500-ton small steamers have been converted. These light ships have become the main means of transportation used by ‘Aurora Legion’ to obtain external supplies. The entire Caribbean Sea is almost their ship, these ships have almost no shortcomings except for the slow speed.
From the current situation, ‘Aurora Legion’ has a large number of merchant ships and a small number of warships, but they are unable to start due to lack of fuel. Their naval personnel are also extremely scarce, with only a small number of retired personnel from the Cuban Navy and the US Navy.
The only thing that ‘Aurora Legion’ can freely navigate is the ‘Aurora’ itself, but if the ‘Aurora’ leaves, the entire Nassau will lose 99% of its power supply. ‘Aurora Legion’ can be said to be a mud-footed giant, with tens of millions of tons of shipping capacity, but unable to confront us on the sea. "
Mr. Wade ’s first report by radio gave the 'Enclave' high-level peace of mind. After all, 'Aurora Legion' can be said to be the only world's end group in the world that has not been hit by a nuclear bomb. After the move?
From the current situation, everyone's situation is not optimistic. ‘Enclave’ himself has to face a devastated world. If ‘Aurora Legion ’s encounter can be a bit more difficult and more difficult, it will make‘ Enclave ’feel better.
And the next series of actions of ‘Aurora Legion’ also seem to verify their inability to seize control of the ocean. After the advisory team ’s George attacked Matanzas several times, ‘Aurora Legion’ did not use their few fuel reserves to dispatch regular warships.
"Professional navies need professional personnel.‘ Aurora Legion ’is definitely not enough to even start a warship, so they ca n’t do anything about our harassment.”
"Fortunately, the area under our control is large enough. Although we have suffered huge losses, we can always find some surviving professionals."
"If only a fleet of armed speed boats can block this organization, then our previous worries are too much."
After Wade successively sent back the number and specific strength of 'Aurora Legion' to 'Enclave', the control population was less than 500,000, the backbone population was less than 50,000, and the core members of the organizational structure could not live up to 5,000 The 'Aurora Legion' is considered an insignificant small organization.
Wade's work is also free for a while. His daily job is to operate a rolling mill. Although it is boring and boring, he has to eat and drink without worrying about death. Until one day he was asked to cold-roll a batch of steel plates with a thickness of 15 mm.
Yeah, why would you want a 15mm thick steel plate? Should our boiler be upgraded to an armored boiler?
The answer from the design department is: In the past, we made low-pressure boilers. Now we are going to make boilers with higher pressure and more power. We are worried that the materials will not pass the test.
Okay, Wade did n’t think much. Rolling is rolling, anyway, the technology of boilers has been studied for hundreds of years, the technology tree is ready-made, and the low-pressure boiler must be developed in the direction of high-pressure boiler.
It did n’t take long before Wade was asked to roll a batch of steel plates one hundred millimeters thick. He exclaimed again: our boiler has been upgraded again? But a hundred millimeters thick boiler steel is too ridiculous, this kind of boiler is stupid and heavy, can't use high pressure?
But this time the design department did not explain it, just asked Wade to roll it. After all, he is just a worker in the smelting department, and there is no need to let him know many things.
However, this situation has made Wade have a question in mind-what is the use of such a thick steel plate? Ordinary ships don't need this stuff at all!
And the next day, Wade ’s mission changed again. The Nassau ship repair yard needs steel plates after two hundred millimeters, and the quality requirements are very high. Various specifications come out, the fool can see that this is by no means a boiler plate, this is the armor plate.
During the processing of the steel plate, Wade also deliberately glanced at it, then it was properly manufacturing a riveted turret!
‘Aurora Legion’ what is this for? They are manufacturing more powerful coal-fired boilers, they are also manufacturing high-strength armor plates, and they are also processing turrets.
All things are connected, Wade is completely stunned-‘Aurora Legion’, are you going to go against the sky? What the **** is this, what an antique like a steam battleship! (To be continued.)
