Chapter 618 617.Riding a horse? Bah, we Transylvanians have a better means of transportation!
“After this batch of new guns is shipped over, we can finally ensure that the Kadman People’s Army will have a firearm for each of us when it expands.”
In the cold winter of Transylvania, Brother Loyal, wearing a set of green military coat that looked familiar, rubbed his hands and puffed out his breath while saying to Knight of Honor Tepal beside him:
“Of course this isn’t enough either, we’ll have to continue to produce an equal number of weapons for attrition replenishment. That Sulphur Flywheel is no less than a master of engineering, he came to guide us for two days so that our semi-automatic bullet assembly line can finally function properly, we just need to work hard and fast for the next twenty days!
A month at the most!
The problem of bullets that has been plaguing us will be alleviated, but if we want to solve it completely, I need at least two more production lines.
But it should be almost ready when the machinery from Chardonnay Harbor is delivered.”
“That is indeed a top priority.”
Tepal gave full play to the spirit of the RP party, although he knew that the “otherworldly style military coats” produced by Mrs. Water’s tailor store were very warm, he still stubbornly wore the local people’s “special winter clothes”.
Although he was freezing like a grandson, the Knight of Honor still stood up straight.
He watched the boxes of guns and bullets being sent onto the carriage, and couldn’t help but ask:
“But there have been negative feedback about the quality of the bullets during recruit training, haven’t you made any improvements to address this aspect? My retainer, His Excellency Marcus, told me that because of the machining precision, cases of bullet jamming occur from time to time.
There are even cases of dud bullets.”
“I know, I know.”
At the mention of this issue, Brother Loyalty’s old face was a bit embarrassed, he coughed twice and sighed:
“If it was on our side, and I took out this quality of bullets to supply to the army, I should be the first one to be hung up with a streetlight, but now it’s not something that can’t be helped.
That production line is our brothers and sisters brainstorming to change out, on the technical level is estimated that even the Peshawar hand rubbing the gods can laugh at us, but still the same sentence, now this situation has what with what it.
It’s good enough to have a good supply of bullets, what else do you need?”
“Are they actually using ‘local craft’ now?”
Tepal was a bit unable to understand, and he couldn’t help but ask in a small voice:
“Don’t you have ‘specialized drawings’ in your hands? Although I don’t know where you guys got them from, it shouldn’t be a problem for those World War I or World War II caliber bullet assembly lines to be made, right?”
“Ha! You really dare to talk big!”
Brother Loyalty bristled in disbelief:
“Do you think that this industrial upgrade is just a matter of clicking on a tech tree? We have drawings in our hands, but those machines have to be processed by ourselves, right? I don’t even have a reliable machine tool in my hands.
I have repeatedly emphasized to you, the underlying logic of steam engineering is very different from ours, this thing is essentially a ‘fantasy technology’, you want to see that kind of fully mechanical assembly line operation, you have to be these hardworking guys from the machine tool rubbing.
But don’t worry.
Flywheel’s factory has something similar, and I gave Prof. Malcolm the drawings and requirements before he left, and the self-produced machinery is already on the production schedule, a month and a half at most! We’ll be able to assemble a near WWI level production line.
Still, it’s impossible to get fat in one bite! Things like industry have to be done slowly, one step at a time.
Hey, enough about that.
Come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come.
I’ll show you something good.
But don’t go around talking about it with your big mouth yet, this thing is just being finalized at the moment, and my brothers and I aren’t confident that we can definitely come up with a finished product yet.”
Brother Loyalty mysteriously led Tepal towards the assembly workshop of the arsenal, Tepal looked back at the wagon fleet behind him, His Excellency the Pink Pussycat Rabbit’s ambition to monopolize the transportation industry of Transylvania was catching up with the east wind of the Black Calamity, these thirty uniformly styled carrier wagons were just a small portion of the huge transportation fleet of the Lion King’s Pride Village.
By the time the Black Calamity was over, it was likely that Mr. Red Cat and Rabbit would become the “King of Logistics” in Transylvania.
I heard that his next plan is to cooperate with his Excellency Serak Fender, who has always been enthusiastic about the “ship-running business”, to monopolize the transportation of the upper and lower reaches of the Cadman River in his own hands, and then to enter Lake Shulpus, and then penetrate into the Cato region and the Genoa Peninsula from there.
How nice.
Though Tepal was freezing like a grandson, a hot current welled up in his heart.
The mayors of the five administrative villages had agreed to do great things together in the first place, and Old Huo’s Hidden Treasure Bay had been a hit, but the rest of them hadn’t given up, and they were all running wild all the way along the plan they’d set for their villages.
I heard that the worst conditions of the Lost Island side has also been dug out high-quality coal, the scholars are ambitious to burn wood Transylvania wave of “energy transition”, and their own new village in the second snowfall before the herb harvest has been completed, and is now the Church of Avalon and the Eye of the Wolf God Monastery of The largest supplier.
Just yesterday, he just gave the villagers their first collective dividend.
Although the amount of money that each family received was not much, the villagers’ joyful expressions proved that his hard work over the past few months had not been in vain, and Fort Riptide was also bustling with activity from one day to the next, although it was currently just a town-like place, Tepal believed that he would one day become a proud city lord.
“How nice.”
He gave such a sigh of relief that made Brother Loyalty look back at him like he was a fool, and the spy chief asked:
“What’s so good? What nonsense are you talking about?”
“Hmph, I mean, the land where ideals bloom.”
Tepal replied back in a literal manner, only to sneeze violently the next moment a cold wind blew, and a [Cold] negative status was added to his body.
“F*ck! You don’t have to be so desperate in this role-playing, right? This is playing with your life, bro, the temperature is below zero right now.”
Brother Loyalty shook his head helplessly, taking out a military coat from his own psychic bag and forcing it on Tepal despite his refusal.
“Lady Water wasn’t going to make these, but couldn’t resist a call from a bunch of veteran soldiers one after another, the tailors under her command made some, and they turned out to be a big hit with the locals.”
Brother Loyalty said with a hefty smile:
“I know that Mrs. Water is pursuing art, but this thing has to be grounded as well, look at how sophisticated Brother Engaged Mao is, he’s already listed military coats as his ready-made garment factory’s fist product, and even though they’re still handmade over there right now, this thing is definitely going to be a big seller!
Maxim’s People’s Army has already placed an order, and this tried and true item will not worry about sales.
You!
You as a member of the foreigners, Tepal!
You have a huge reputation in the hearts of the locals, and it’s only right that you take on the responsibility of ‘bringing goods’ to your own brothers. Didn’t you see the others, Cat and Bunny and Old Huo, immediately switching to this stuff as soon as they returned to Transylvania?
Your guy’s awareness is still too low.”
While he counted down the RP party’s lack of grounding, he led Tepal into the assembly workshop, where the Knight of Honor saw a group of workers assembling something very familiar to him in front of the assembly line.
“This.”
Tepal exclaimed:
“No way? You guys are actually going to reproduce it down to this level of detail?”
“Hmph, what do you mean by replicating? This is a change that must be made based on the current form of war in Transylvania!”
Brother Loyalty righteously copied a nearby finished product and waved it in his hand, the familiar feel of it making him grin, before handing it over to Tepal. It was a standard small shovel, with a uniform specification handle turned out of wood from the vicinity of Fort Riptide, and the body of the shovel in front of it blackened and crafted into a flat shape that didn’t look very technical, but Tepal noticed that Brother Loyal had left a section of the left side of the engineer’s shovel that he had handed to him in the form of a sawtooth structure.
Because facing the black plague and the Knights to go to war, this period of time to supplement the general knowledge of war, of course, Tepal knows what this thing is doing.
He said with odd eyes:
“We don’t have barbed wire to cut either.”
“Hehehe, there will be soon.”
Brother Loyalty pointed to another room, where a large amount of rolls of special wire with specially shaped spiked barbs sat, making one’s heart skip a beat at the sight.
“That’s the order Master Qin placed earlier, it’s a shame that the Deathmatch was almost over by the time it was made, but it doesn’t matter, the Maginot Defense Line will definitely use it. Hey, give those jackals a good lesson in what true trench warfare means!”
The spy chief smiled grimly, causing Tepal to shake his body.
Holding the engineer’s shovel in his hand, he followed Brother Loyalty all the way into a special room, where the arsenal’s “technician”, the Chief Multi-Turreted Religious, was assembling an oddly shaped firearm, and after seeing Brother Loyalty and Tepal come over, this not-so-young, chubby fellow proudly handed the ” weapon” in his hand to his own son. weapon” in his hand and handed it to his boss.
“I just tested it, Brother Loyalty.”
Multi Turret said as he wiped the sweat from his forehead:
“It took thirty rounds before it jammed twice, and the problem of the magazines coming off easily has been improved by Nuke Boss, but there’s really nothing we can do about the misfires. We can’t pile up materials if we want to ensure the cost-effectiveness of the finished product, and I must admit that the Brits in World War II have really saved this thing to the extreme.
Now it’s just a matter of waiting for that old flywheel to come over one more time and help us adjust the equipment, and then we can start production once the machinery is in place in Chardonnay Harbor.
Hey, hey, hey, finally we don’t have to produce big bolts every day.
Although the other brothers are still spitting on us for making this thing as a loss of conscience, they all don’t know how much money they’re getting if they’re not in charge, if you ask me, this thing is the best weapon that suits Transylvania the most at the moment!
It’s got the firepower, it’s got the numbers, and as long as you can put up with its endless glitches, this thing is the god of war in this day and age!
We’re now also capable of making ‘automatic weapons’.
This thing may be shabby, but after taking it out, the People’s Army’s firepower will at least increase by three or four times!”
“Transitional product, just a transitional product.”
Loyal brother himself is not too good to take out the weapon in his hand, he also knows how shabby this thing is, if it is not really no way, he does not want his own brother to use this thing on the battlefield, can only wave his hand and say:
“Real automatic weapons have to wait for after slowly get, if not the situation is critical, I can not let our own brothers use this broken thing alas, after that must be poked and prodded, but we all know that this is a must.”
He turned and handed the thing shaped like a hose in his hand to a wide-eyed Tepal and said:
“Voila, the best water hose in the world, and it even fires the occasional bullet! The factory is at full capacity right now, though, so I need you to get me another batch of workers, there’s a lot of temporary labor needed over at the smelting shop.
I know your ‘love of people’ guy isn’t likely to be willing.
But as you can see, we’re really working on a ‘secret weapon’, so if you want the black plague to pass faster, then help out.
We have to make a good batch to send to the front before the number of Jackals overwhelms the limits of the Maginot defense line, now that we all know the situation is tough and the battle professionals are playing for their lives on the front lines, we, the administrators and makers, have to shoulder our responsibilities as well.
So, carry it through together.”
“Uh, I understand the reasoning.”
Tepal looked at the classic black Sten in his hand, even as a non-military fan he had heard of the various “good reputations” of this thing, he somewhat timidly put this thing with both hands on the side, lest it “moody” to suddenly go off and take himself away.
He said:
“But this thing . Uh, for the record, we Knights of the Riptide certainly won’t be using it! We’d rather use a big bolt.”
“Don’t worry, as soon as we get through the Black Plague and have the time and energy and plenty of resources, we’ll start working on the forging process to prepare for the bobbins, and then the first batch will be for you to use!”
“Hey, this is good!”
—
“Woohoo!”
A strange whistle sounded on the road outside the mountain village named “Lost Island”, and after His Excellency, the director of “Transylvania Winter Wind Vehicle Factory”, shoveled selected coal into the boiler with his own hands, the strange four-wheeled vehicle moved slowly as if activated, under the control of “One Pink Pear”, who had an egg on her face. As if activated, the strange four-wheeler slowly moved under the control of “a pink pear” with a pained face.
As a professional driver with a special license, Pink Pear has driven many, many cars, and some time ago even drove the Earth Wanderer, which costs millions of dollars, a truly high-end product.
But this old driver can be sure, he is definitely the first of all contemporary drivers to drive a “coal-burning car” hero.
He sat on a very “rustic”, very original seat, grasping a big, black and thick steering wheel in his hands, feeling the strange vibrations coming from his buttocks, and the strange “boiler-powered” engine that was being moved by the “boiler-power”. Mechanical structure of the engine.
Seriously, Pink Pear’s “driver’s instinct” was telling him that this damn thing would probably explode the next second, blowing him and the vomit sauce in the “powerhouse” behind him, which was constantly shoveling coal, into the sky.
Amidst the black smoke, he couldn’t help but spit:
“I mean, don’t you guys have the plans for the internal combustion engine? Get it going! Why do you have to make this kind of steam engine truck ah, old brother, let me tell you, I’m so panicked right now that I don’t dare to step on the gas!
Although our lives are expendable, if we get blown up by a boiler we made ourselves, we’ll both have another piece of black history.”
“Too much bullshit, if you’re told to drive, you drive! We’ve done the tests, the gold-burning catalyst has increased the thermal efficiency of the steam engine to no less than the horsepower of an internal combustion engine, there’s absolutely no problem with the power, so you just step on the gas to death!
Standing up and stepping on it is no problem.”
This will be full of black gray face vomit mud sauce kicked on the car seat in front of him, as a vehicle engineer, he can’t stand Pink Pearly to talk big about his own hand rubbed big baby.
Although it is true that it is broken a little bit, it is true that it is not very stable, it is true that you need to burn coal in order to get a lot of power, but this does not change the fact that the two people are driving this big baby is the true meaning of this continent’s first “car”!
The whole is modeled after a classic Dongfeng truck, but the front part of the vehicle is quite strange, and has been lengthened to accommodate the “combustion chamber”, that is, the place where coal is added to the steam engine.
Well, it’s more like a four-wheeled steam train than a car.
Probably only Transylvania such as the existence of a fantasy technology tree can be born similar strange things, by the vomit mud sauce severely gripped the heart of the Pink Pear, step on the accelerator pedal to start the continent’s first racing.
But you don’t say, this gas pedal down to let that strange engine humming, the whole car vibration instead of a lot of small, in the speed up, the pink pear child skillfully steering wheel in this was specially organized on the road to a S-turn, but also in the bystanders in the shocked gasp intends to play a drift.
But it was only when he slammed on the brakes that he realized the situation was not good.
“That. Vomit Mud Sauce, how come this brake doesn’t feel right? Are you sure the brake pads are intact? Why is the speed still increasing!”
“It shouldn’t be! I’ve obviously assembled the car strictly according to the drawings of the most classic brake structure . It only needs, uh, this isn’t an internal combustion engine, it’s a steam engine with gold burning. Fuck! Jump the car!
Come on!”
“XXX you XXX, I didn’t even die fighting jackals! And now I’ve been killed by you. I’ll be damned.”
“Boom!”
