Release that Witch - Chapter 1291

[Chapter 1257 State Machine]
“I need to expand a synthetic ammonia plant and a nitrate plant. You should have already prepared for this?” Roland asked.
Both of them were stuck on the catalyst before, and they had been solved by Agatha and Bai Zhi’s ability, and the output had always been maintained at a level that was neither high nor low.
It is much higher than the original saltpeter acid production method, but limited by the magic power and population of witches, there is no way to further expand the scale.
Since the completion of the complete periodic table of elements, the chemistry laboratory immediately placed the first priority on establishing sample specimens. With the help of Lucia’s element separation, the Ministry of Chemical Industry has now matched the elements on the table with the actual specimens one by one.
This makes some rather rare substances no longer unfamiliar, such as platinum and rhodium, which are commonly used catalysts for industrial nitrate production.
Perhaps in terms of efficiency, it can’t compare to Agatha and White Paper, but as long as there are people, the factory can be built as much as it wants.
As the saying goes, the quality is not enough to meet the quantity, and the former has no quality and quantity.
“Yes, Your Majesty,” Kaimo said slowly, “We have verified its principle technically, and manufactured a small reaction vessel to simulate the synthesis process. As long as there are enough people, we can start construction at any time.”
“I can put

immigrants are given priority to you, so go prepare after the meeting.” Roland paused, “In addition, I plan to open a new production line for the manufacture of lead-acid batteries.”
Maybe he doesn’t know what it is, but he has already flipped through elementary and intermediate chemistry books thoroughly, and he has memorized all the contents in his heart.
There is also a popular term for lead-acid batteries, which is batteries.
The materials used are extremely simple, only lead, lead dioxide and dilute sulfuric acid are needed, which is not difficult for the Alchemy Association, let alone the current Ministry of Chemical Industry-lighting a lamp with an electrolyte solution is also a very classic experiment in high school chemistry up.
The advantage of the battery is that it can be recharged and used repeatedly, and it only needs to be replenished with pure water every once in a while.
Lead and lead dioxide plates have close to zero manufacturing difficulty and have not been produced before because of narrow use and low priority in underpopulated conditions.
“The amount you need is about…” Kaimo took out a small notebook and recorded.
“One hundred Taiwan is enough for a month.” Roland replied.
The battery is mainly used for the cold start of the piston engine. As the most dazzling industrial crown in Neverwinter, the biplane has to be shaken by the ground crew for a long time when it takes off, which is really out of style.
In the past, there were not enough people, but now that Neverwinter has been supplemented by a large number of migrants, naturally there is no need to be so restrained.
There are many people who can do whatever they want.
“With such a small quantity, the factory can draw a dozen or so newcomers to complete it,” Kaimo twitched his beard. “Of course, the manufacture of lead plates, shells and other components requires the help of Her Highness Anna.”
“If you can provide detailed drawings, the Ministry of Industry No problem.” Anna nodded.
“Then Rong Chen thinks for a few days before sending the blueprint.”
Roland took a sip of tea with satisfaction. After several years of training, the administrative department is now full of talents, and cross-departmental cooperation has become the norm, which makes many new projects he only uses Start it, and someone will finish it later.
“Next is the task of the Ministry of Industry—”
After the battle of Taquila ended, there were a lot of things that needed to be improved and supplemented in his mind, and now he could finally let go.
The first urgent need is to improve the combat capabilities of infantry squads.
This is the so-called universal machine gun program.
Use lighter materials to reproduce the Mark I heavy machine gun, and optimize its structure, so that the gun body and gun frame can be separated and carried by a single person, and the ammunition is fed by magazines or clips, so that whenever you encounter an enemy Can immediately launch a counterattack.
Even if the opponent is a high-level devil, as long as it is not attacked suddenly, it can provide fire suppression and create opportunities for the anti-devil grenadiers.
Since there is no major change in the structure, the emphasis on lightweighting falls on the material.
For example, aluminum alloys, and plastic-like finished products made of rubber worm mucus – the output of both is not high, and the demand for biplanes is huge, so the output will not be high.
But something is better than nothing, not to mention that the Air Knight also needs machine guns, and putting this project on the agenda can be said to serve multiple purposes.
In Roland’s mind, even if the First Army goes to fight in Wolfheart and Eternal Winter, it should still maintain local superiority in troops and firepower against the enemy as much as possible. Only elite teams with special missions such as reconnaissance, cover, and rescue will be equipped with this weapon.
In addition, the semi-automatic rifle modified by Vanner has been transferred to the arsenal for official production, and is currently replacing the bolt-action rifle at a ratio of 1:5, which means that one out of five people will hold a “Vanner rifle”.
The reason for not completely replacing it is that in addition to worrying about the logistical pressure, the exposure of the linkage mechanism leads to a decrease in durability and the possibility of shooting jams is also a major problem.
However, its effect on improving the firepower of soldiers is real.
The second is the biplane—after nearly four months of intense testing, the first-generation biplane has been finalized and named “Skyfire”.
It is not much different from a “unicorn”, and its structure is not complicated when disassembled. However, if it is really handed over to ordinary workers for production and assembly, it is still a question of how much the yield can be achieved.
As for the engine, it can only be made by Anna in the short term.
Even so, Roland still intends to gather all the best workers in the industrial area to break through this difficulty.
It has been more than three years since the first steam engine factory, and those apprentice blacksmiths have changed from wielding hammers to masters operating machine tools. The current level of manufacturing in Neverwinter City is the best time to test it.
Seizing the sky is the only fundamental way to curb the fear beast’s maneuverability.
And “Sky Fire” is undoubtedly just the beginning.

Finally, it is designed to address the new spider-shaped monstrosity of the devil and the shortcomings exposed by the First Army-Roland intends to add a new small-caliber gun between the mortar and the fortress Artillery, used to attack fortifications and fight monsters.
Its size is tentatively determined as a 75mm short tube, and it can also be used in military operations without relying on hummingbirds to reduce weight and harden roads.
Usually one or two horses can be towed, and people can also be used when there are no horses.
This kind of infantry artillery is not technically difficult, and it can start work by mobilizing some workers from the original artillery factory to bring in new ones—but before that, he has to complete the trial production and test firing of the prototype artillery.
Roland and Anna had already discussed these contents countless times in private, and there was no need to explain them in detail at all.
Nearly ten factories started construction at the same time, and 20,000 to 30,000 people were invested in the new project at one time, which can be regarded as the most ambitious manufacturing plan since the establishment of Neverwinter.
With the acceleration of immigration, this pace will not stagnate, but will intensify.
The machine called “Nation” has been activated.
