Chapter 108 108 Oil-drinking dragonMayne's car production line has been built. Because it is the hinterland of Alanhill, the location is very safe , which became a production center for automobiles and aircraft. Precision parts are machined at Serris and then shipped here by train for assembly.
A Jeep has rolled off the production line, and it's not the first car Alanhill has ever built. In recent days, Alanhill has produced more than 100 cars, most of which are directly handed over to the troops near Mayne for training.
Stroking the car in front of him with his hands, the engineer in charge of this factory slogans and praises the products he has produced: "This car is really handsome! I like it when I look at it!"
>"Yeah! I like it too." An officer stood by the car with his hands behind his back, a smile that could not be hidden on his face. This kind of car that can run as long as you drink oil is much more stable than a war horse. Sitting on it is not tiring at all, and you can even take a nap.
As long as the driver operates, the rest of the passengers can rest on the road. Moreover, this kind of car can also drag heavy weapons and equipment, such as heavy machine guns that were originally dragged by carry, and can be used for towing.
This is just the beginning. The second workshop is already assembling production trucks. The six-wheeled truck has a stronger towing capacity. I heard that it can tow larger artillery and can carry more soldiers. .
After the gasoline engine could be mass-produced, this device became more popular than the steam engine. Because of its small size and light weight, many aspects have begun to demand such equipment. For example, the Army hopes to equip such small machines to generate electricity while equipping cars.
After all, whether a field phone or Wireless Electronics needs a stable power supply to support its work - relying on human power to generate electricity is still unstable, and now there are better options, who cares? What about a less-than-perfect option?
The engineer looked at the jeep, pointed to the engine cover curiously and asked, "However, why do all car engine covers have huge golden eagles painted on them?"
He felt that this obvious pattern was not conducive to air defense concealment. Such a bright golden eagle was facing the direction of the sky, as if it was beckoning the opponent to attack him.
The officer didn't think too much about it. He directly answered the most standard answer to the other party: "This is how the design of Your Majesty is drawn..."
shrugged , the engineer felt that he must not have as deep plans and distant thoughts as Chris Your Majesty, so he gave up his immature thoughts, nodded said: "Yes, Your Majesty's aesthetic is really impeccable."
Actually, Chris didn't just draw this pattern for aesthetic reasons, he also had his own considerations. In the future, he feels that his fighter unit can protect the safety of his front-line troops, so he believes that it is more important to prevent the Air Force from accidental injury.
Of course, this is only one consideration, and the other consideration is Chris's obsession with another world: he really likes the white five-pointed star design on the hood of the American Jeep , so it was directly applied to his golden eagle national emblem.
"Are all newly produced cars sent to the mainland?" The officer came here this time to pick up a new batch of produced cars. These cars are to be sent to Ferry City for use by Air Force pilots and their commanders.
"Yes, they were all sent to the suburbs to the newly formed driving school." The engineer remembered those driver training courses, and felt that it would be more appropriate to use the knowledge magic ball to learn to drive: " The magic ball of knowledge is still too valuable, so the training has not given up."
He walked out of the factory floor and said to the officers around him: "The new car factory is built in Mayne. The largest production workshop. In Wallawa, the foundations have been built. The production of cars will only increase, to the point that you will be surprised."
"Occupying Wallawa has brought us even more Resources." The officer sighed and followed the engineer on the path between the factories.
Different from the plains everywhere, Dragon City and Naru, which are densely populated with fertile fields, the vicinity of Wallawa is close to the mountains.
This mountain is so huge that it actually blocks all roads between Maine and the Ferry, and Wallawar. It is bounded by Main and Ferry to the north, and Wallawar to the south.
At the southernmost tip of this mountain, there is a vein of magic concentrate. Half-life around this vein, there are a lot of iron ore and coal mine. With these resources, at least in terms of iron production, Alanhill has enough.
After all, there is still compensation from the Arrant Empire, the treaty has been implemented, and a carload of iron ingots are being transported into Farood, because to process these iron ingots, Farood also opened a factory, Specializing in metal smelting and manufacturing of civilian products.
"It goes without saying, I heard that 3,000 professional workers were recruited, and 10,000 miners were replenished with prisoners... This is not a small matter." The engineer talked about the last time The content of the meeting of the industrial sector, the face is full of proud expressions.
The coal mine production in Wallawa has doubled, and a coal mine-to-gasoline plant is being built there. I heard that it will be put into operation soon, but the oil quality is not so good, so it can only be used exclusively for Army use.
The iron ore over there has more uses. I heard that a railway will be built from Wallawar via Naru to Serris. The team to explore the road conditions has been out for more than a month.
"Looking at the number of people, the scale over there is not smaller than that over here." The officer said happily when he heard the news of the development of the iron mine.
After all, the more iron ore is produced, the more weapons the army can get, so it can recruit more soldiers and form more new troops. And I heard that the Navy has plans to build an experimental battleship with an all-metal hull, powered by a steam engine...
Thinking of this, the officer involuntarily put out a long breath - fortunately, the navy does not scramble for gasoline with itself, otherwise the oil production of this fool is really not enough.
While he was thinking about it, the engineer spoke again: "Of course, I heard that it is several times larger than the iron mine here... The scale of the coal mine is not small. They are comparable.”
The engineer seems to have been suffocated by the oil production issue for a long time, remembering that the production of metals such as coal and iron is increasing rapidly, but the oil production is increasing slowly, and his heart is full It is emotional: "It's really tangled, we have so much territory, and we can't find oil..."
The officer mentioned oil, but he was also helpless, but he still said comforted: " Don't tell me, isn't there a small oil field in Hanhai? I heard that the production has increased, but it still tastes like an utterly inadequate measure."
The engineer laughed when he heard this. He poured a pot of cold water on his mouth and said, "Ha, seeing that there are more and more cars, the gasoline reserves are getting less and less, and the Air Force is applying for gasoline control."
Yan The following meaning is: what is the use of that little bit of increased oil production? The daily production of planes and cars here is so much, the gasoline consumption is increasing every day, and the oil is obviously still not enough.
The army officer felt aggrieved when he mentioned this matter. Their army had great military exploits, but in the end, they always failed in resource allocation: "That gang of air forces is really... I heard that the knowledge magic ball belongs to them. They use a lot, and now even the gasoline is under their control?”
It’s no wonder he doesn’t understand, plus the Magic Empire’s first batch of purchasing rifles paid for the command magic ball, the Holy Demon Emperor has more than 6,000 in total. Commanding magic balls, the Air Force accounted for almost 1,500! This is not a small amount, because after all, not all magic orbs are supplied to the military.
The army only took about 2,500 in total, but the Air Force alone ate more than half of it. The navy is also welcome, and took 600 of them in one go, leaving only 400 for the army...
This matter has made the army very dissatisfied, because they also have new weapons in service, A lot of knowledge magic balls are also needed to increase the number of professionals in the troops. As a result, at the end of the meeting, everyone discussed that the 1,500 magic balls that the Air Force took away were not less, and the Army distributed another 100 magic balls to supply the Navy...
It makes me sad to think about it. Army officers heard this. It really didn't know whether to cry or laugh at the time of the incident - the Army himself clamored for a meeting to reassign, but in the end he lost another 100 magic balls, which is literally shooting himself with a rock feet.
Seeing the officer's face full of wry smiles, the engineer also remembered the Army's "bitter past", so he said comforted: "Don't worry, I heard at the cabinet meeting that the air force's requirements were not passed... It seems that Your Majesty has only given an order to that, to ensure the supply of training fuel for the Air Force."
As if to vent their dissatisfaction, the army officer came back to his senses and complained bitterly about the air force. : "The planes equipped by the Air Force are simply dragons that drink oil!"
The engineer also agreed with nodded: "That's not it...that's a group of dragons that drink oil!"
But they all know that no matter how much oil they drink, it is necessary to build the Air Force. After all, anti-aircraft guns can't cover the entire Alanhill. The best and most economical way to deal with Dragon Knight is those iron lumps flying in the sky.
As for the oil production capacity, I can only leave it to Your Majesty to worry about - anyway, I heard that Your Majesty and a few engineers drew a device called a double donkey-head pumping unit, and it improved. Oil production in the Hanhai Oilfield.
If it doesn't work, let Your Majesty draw a few more blueprints.
For the Alanhill Empire, there is no problem that a design blueprint can't solve, if there is, let Your Majesty draw another...
Doll self-propelled drawing machine, that's not a vain name...
