Release that Witch Chapter 1257: National machine
"I need to expand an ammonia plant and a nitrate plant. Should you have already prepared it?" Roland asked.
These two have been stuck on the catalyst before, and have been solved by the capabilities of Agatha and White Paper, and the output has always been maintained at a high or low level. Compared with the original saltpeter acid production method, it is much higher, but magic power and population limited by witch have no way to further expand the scale.
Since the complete periodic table has been completed, the chemistry laboratory has immediately focused on the establishment of sample specimens. With the separation of elements from Lucia, Ministry of Chemistry has now matched the elements on the table with the actual specimen one by one. This makes some relatively rare substances no longer unfamiliar, such as the catalyst -- platinum, rhodium, etc., which are commonly used in industrial nitrate production.
Perhaps it is not as efficient as Agatha and White Paper, but as long as there are people, the factory can build as many as possible. The so-called quality is not enough, but the former cannot be talked about without the quality and quantity of witch.
"Yes, Your Majesty," said Cam slowly. "We have technically verified the principle and made a small reaction vessel to simulate the synthesis process. As long as there are enough staff, we can start construction at any time."
"I can give literate immigrants priority to you, and prepare after the meeting." Roland paused, "In addition, I plan to open a new production line for the manufacture of lead-acid batteries."
Minister of Chemistry Did not show the slightest color, others may not know what it is, but he has already Intermediate Chemistry Of books are overwhelming, everything is remembered in heart .
Another popular saying about lead-acid batteries is batteries. The materials used are extremely simple, only lead, lead dioxide and dilute sulfuric acid are needed, and it is not difficult for Alchemy Association, not to mention that the current Ministry of Chemistry -- is lit with an electrolytic solution, which is also a very classic test of high school chemistry.
The advantage of the battery is that it can be recharged and used repeatedly, just need to replenish some pure water then it will be alright. The manufacturing difficulty of lead and lead dioxide boards is close to zero. There was no production before because the use was narrow and the priority was not high under the underpopulated situation.
"The amount you need is probably ..." Cam took out a small notebook and recorded it.
"Hundreds of Taiwan a month is enough." Roland replied.
The battery is mainly used for the cold start of the piston machine. As the most dazzling industrial crown of Neverwinter City, the biplane has to shake the ground for a long time when taking off, which is really out of style. Before people were not enough, Neverwinter has been supplemented by a large number of migrants, so naturally there is no need to be so fettered.
Many people can do whatever they want.
"With such a small quantity, the factory can take a dozen new people to complete it," Cam said. "Of course, the manufacture of parts such as lead plates and shells need the help of His Highness Anna."
"If you can provide detailed drawings, there is no problem with the Ministry of Industry." Anna nodded.
"Then Rongchen thinks for a few days, and then sends the drawing."
Roland drank a mouthful of tea with satisfaction. After years of training, the talents of the Department of Administration are now abundant, and cross-department cooperation has become the norm. This has made many new projects start with a mention and someone will complete it later.
"Next is the task -- of the Ministry of Industry"
After the battle of Taqila, his brain has a lot of things that need to be improved and added, and now he can finally let go.
The first need is to improve the combat capabilities of the infantry squad.
This is the so-called universal machine gun program.
Reproduce Mark I Model heavy machine gun with lighter materials, and optimize its structure, so that the gun body and the gun stand can be carried by a single person, and the supply of ammunition is by using a disc or magazine, so that at any time when encountering the enemy, Fire back immediately. Even if the opponent is high rank Devil, as long as it is not suddenly attacked, it can provide firepower suppression and create opportunities for anti-Devil grenade players.
Since the structure hasn't changed much, the focus of lightweight has been on the material. For example, the production of both -- on plastic products made of aluminum alloy and rubber bug slime is not high, and the demand for biplanes is huge, so the output will not necessarily be high.
But it's better than nothing, not to mention that Aerial Knight also needs machine guns. Putting this item on the agenda can be said to be more than just doing one thing.
In the idea of Roland, even if First Army goes to Wolf Heart and Eternal Winter, it should still maintain local superior forces and firepower to the enemy as much as possible. Only elite teams with special tasks such as reconnaissance, cover and rescue will equip this weapon.
In addition, the semi-automatic rifle transformed by Van'er has been transferred to the arsenal for official production, and is currently replacing bolt action rifle with a ratio of 1: 5, that is, one of the five people will hold the "Van'er rifle". It was not completely replaced because in addition to worrying about logistical pressure, the exposure of the linkage mechanism led to reduced durability and easy shooting and jamming was also a major problem.
However, its effect on enhancing the firepower of soldiers is real.
Second, the biplane -- has undergone high-intensity testing for nearly four months. The first-generation biplane has completed the finalization and was named "Skyfire". It is not much different from the "unicorn", and the structure is not complicated when disassembled, but it is really a problem for ordinary workers to produce and assemble. As for the engine, it can only be manufactured by Anna for a short time.
Even so, Roland intends to concentrate all the best workers in the industrial zone to break through this difficult point. It has been more than three years since the first Steam Engine Factory, and those blacksmith apprentices have also changed from wielding a hammer to mastering the machine tool. To what extent has the manufacturing level of Neverwinter City accumulated, now is the best time for inspection.
To curb the maneuverability of Dread Beast, capturing the sky is the only cure.
And Skyfire is no doubt just the beginning.
Finally, Devil's newly emerged spider-type mutated beast and First Army's expose are inadequate. -- Roland intends to add a small caliber cannon between the mortar and the stronghold gun for attacking and countering mutated beast. Its size is tentatively set at 75mm short tube, it does not rely on Hummingbird to reduce weight and harden the road, and it can also follow the army. Usually one or two horses can be towed, and no horses can be used.
This kind of infantry gun has no technical difficulty. Some workers in the original artillery factory can start -- with old and new ones. But before that, he must complete the trial manufacture and test firing of the sample gun.
These contents Roland and Anna have been discussed in private for countless times. There is no need to explain in detail at all. In one sentence, it is easy to understand.
Almost ten factories are under construction at the same time, and 20,000 to 30,000 people are invested in new projects at one time, which is the most magnificent manufacturing plan since the establishment of Neverwinter City.
With the accelerated migration of immigrants, this step will not only stagnate, but will intensify.
The machine named "Country" is already up.
