Chapter 595 (1/2)
The change of the Odin Orc tribe further affected the merchants of Byron alliance. They began to speed up the pace of transporting goods to this place and carried out the final business carnival. Once the Western Odin Empire and the blood fort of the fracture were involved in the all-round war, no one knows when the cross-border market will restart.
It may be three years or two years, or ten years or eight years. If the relationship is too tense, there will never be a chance to restart.
This time, the blood fortress of the fracture started a cross-border market, taking advantage of the Western Odin empire's plot for the eastern Odin empire. Even if they knew that they were making small moves in the back, they did not have the energy to pay attention to them.
If we want to open a mutual market in the future, it is not a matter of the blood castle on the fracture. We also need to see the attitude of the Western Odin empire. If they are determined not to allow it, they only need to station a few big tribes on the border to block those small and medium-sized tribes who are willing to trade. We can even become horse bandits and directly eat the goods they trade.
Another thing that makes people feel the atmosphere of war is that the military supplies from Yongye army leader are constantly transported to the blood fort of fracture.
100000 barrels of black powder, that's a big order. From the moment we received the order, we already had the truck loaded with black powder on the road.
There were only 30000 barrels of black powder transferred from Yongye army, which was the stock base produced in order to cope with the war. With the two big consumers of blood fort and Kingsley family, Yongye army leader finally disposed of seventy-eight.
For the remaining 70000 barrels, Yongye military leader plans to rent a new ordnance factory near the fracture blood fort, and directly transport raw materials from all over the country. Now it is producing and supplying the blood fort at the fracture site.
The formula of black powder is no longer a secret. It does not need to be kept as secret as before. It is only a matter of time before the blood fort of fracture gets to set up an arms factory to produce black powder. During this period, it is fundamental to find ways to reduce costs and maximize benefits.
After a few years of money from the blood fortress on the fracture, you can package and sell these weapons factories to them.
Sean never expected others not to develop, as long as he made sure that he was always ahead of others.
Moreover, Yongye Junling's ordnance factory basically does not produce primary products. This kind of product, which is regarded as a treasure in other territories, is already a semi eliminated process in Yongye Junling, which is mainly used to make fireworks.
Not only is its power not ideal, but the smoke generated during the explosion is too large, which seriously affects the soldiers' sight, especially after being made into shells.
Yongye military leader has found a new improved formula of black powder, and in a short time, other territories can not follow suit, because the charcoal used in the improved black powder is not made by ordinary technology, but by using the energy of fire attribute technique. The charcoal particles contain a lot of fire elements.
The advantages of this are obvious. The combustion supporting property of the fire element will make the black powder burn more thoroughly when it explodes. It not only emits less smoke, but also has greater power. Although there is no way to compare with smokeless powder, it can be used only as a shell in a short time.
As for the development process of smokeless powder, the formula has been worked out for a long time. What restricts the mass production of Yongye military leader is the problem of raw materials.
Smokeless powder can't be directly extracted from nature like black powder, and then mixed together.
In fact, from black powder to smokeless powder, it is a process of purification. Regardless of the material used, the chemical principle is basically the same - flammable and explosive materials release energy in a short period of time.
If the combustion process is not complete and there is too much residue in it, no matter how the raw materials used are changed, it is still the category of black powder.
Black powder is not only a name, but also a kind of the same product. At most, the smoke emitted is different in color.
If it can burn thoroughly and only a small amount of smoke is released, it can be called smokeless powder regardless of the material.
There are few natural substances with high purity produced in nature.
If you want to use it in large quantities, you have to purify it artificially.
The purification process is more dependent on the industrial system, especially mass production.
After all, it involves not only the power, but also the cost performance.
If the manufacturing cost of smokeless powder is too high, it is not suitable to replace black powder on a large scale.
In a word, the current development mode of Yongye military leaders is too abnormal. The emergence of many things is limited by their current industrial system and advanced technology.
Until this is done, a lot of things can only exist in the form of theory.
The most important one is industrial energy.
The first industrial energy sources of Yongye army are wind power and hydraulic power.
A large number of windmills and hydraulic mills gave birth to the first step of their industrial system.
Windmills and water mills can do more than just grind wheat.
Yongye army led the first batch of thousand forged steel, is the use of hydraulic driven hammer, using traditional blacksmith technology, thousands of hammers.
Later, some large sewing machines were driven by water.This kind of industrial energy is only the primary use of the power of nature. The utilization rate is very low, not to mention. It is also very unstable and is very limited by the geographical environment.
The industrial factories of yongyejun in the first few years are distributed along the Jacobs river.
With the return of the Jacobs River, Yongye Army leaders have broken through the relationship between angabena and have a stable source of coal mines, and their industrial energy has gradually transformed into coal-fired steam boilers.
Coal fired steam boiler belongs to the most primary steam boiler, and there is no big technical problem. At the beginning, the main problem was raw materials.
If the raw materials are not up to standard, it is easy to blow up the furnace if the raw materials are not up to standard. The explosion power of the equipment is no less than that of tens of kilograms of black powder.
Yongye army led the first batch of coal-fired steam boilers, which were large and bulky. The shortage of quality was made up entirely by the quantity of materials.
This situation was changed only after Yongye army's steel-making technology was on the right track, and with the help of black technology.
The shape of coal-fired steam boiler has become smaller and its application scope has become more extensive.
With the intervention of black technology, the development limit of coal-fired steam boiler is obviously much higher than what Sean knew in his previous life.
Because no matter how the energy is applied or the energy utilization rate is much higher.
As mentioned previously, spell energy represents a kind of element movement track. As long as there is energy transformation, there will be a lot of magic energy gathering.
All energy transitions, in fact, can be thought of as a cluster of spell energies.
Take a very simple example.
The dry wood burned into a flame.
In fact, this can be seen as the collapse of the building elements of firewood, decomposition into fire elements.
In order to make the casting easier, the Warlocks follow this principle by using the medium of the technique.
In the past, Sean was confined to his previous life thinking, thinking only of converting a gas steam boiler into power.
This year, influenced by the development of surgical techniques, Sean began to change his mind.
First convert all energy into spell energy, and then use it.
In this way, it's not just a matter of converting it into kinetic energy. Don't forget that Yongye army leader also has a series of black magic techniques, especially those magic magic magic circuits. The reason why they are limited to the northern fortress is completely limited by the energy reaction room. There is no way to provide large-scale magic energy in other places.
With the magic transformation of coal-fired steam boiler, their magic black technology will have the opportunity to use on a large scale.
In Sean's eyes, even the magic coal-fired steam boiler is also a transitional substitute, and the ultimate product is the energy reaction chamber of the northern fort.
Compared with the magic of coal-fired steam boiler, the energy reaction chamber has many advantages.
