Chapter 675 Chapter 16.07 War, Life

Fire pattern calendar 3224, May 5th.

In the factory with a very strong smell of plastic, Ma Jack received a general from the imperial capital, who was worrying about some small special situations in frontier operations.

The empire has encountered unprecedented precipitation this year on the front of the Posson River, which has prevented a large amount of supplies, especially the need for waterproof equipment. In short, it is disposable utensils like plastic bags and tarpaulins.

The trenches at the front were flooded, ammunition and heavy artillery could not be protected from the rain, and the small strongholds dug on the front line were often abandoned by soldiers due to rain leakage.To Imperial Soldiers: Worse than your opponent's shells is rotten feet.

The inefficient organizational system of the empire only waited until "soldiers would rather endure the arrest of the military police and resist orders" before they finally reported to the higher authorities and started to solve such problems.

And the rival Anglo-dominated alliance will not give Sky Empire a chance.

As more industrial nations, they are more resistant to accidents.In the same continuous contest, in addition to being caught off guard at the beginning, a large amount of moisture-proof materials were sent to the front line, and even the sleeping bags of the infantry had moisture-proof functions.

Under the instruction of the special channel last year, Majack speculation played a role.

Jack adjusted the production line, then adjusted the funds, focused on acquiring a large amount of production capacity, and mass-produced it before the rain fell. Over the past few months, by deducting wages and squeezing workers, the backlog of production capacity in the warehouse ushered in the production he wanted. The "noble man" waiting.

…on the line of the assembly line…

General Sugemat saw the continuous flow of the production chain and the quality and quantity of products in the warehouse.This long-time high-ranking figure gave an evaluation of "chivalrous businessman" to Ma Jieke, who is "simple and honest" and "serves the country with fists".

Finally, when the general got into the jeep, he left.

The big man's time is very tight, and he doesn't have time to learn more about the situation below.After leaving Ma Jack with a special business order, he left.

When the rubber wheels left, the enthusiastic atmosphere at the scene ended, and the flowers and red banners were withdrawn.Line up to welcome the smiling management personnel, and also changed the "smiling expression" to a face that supervises and reprimands the following
For corporate executives, industrial production now requires them to continue to take care of it.

Those "village boys who are not strong enough" on the production line, without their constant staring, would be "unconscious" and not "dedicated".

Ever since, the gate of the factory returned to a cold look. These machines chasing efficiency did not show any emotion at all. The enthusiasm just now was just squeezed out and smiled at the "benefits".

...In a hurried society, any shouting sound is not as loud as a silver coin falling on the ground...

Six kilometers away, on the platform of the iron tower, Wei Keng, wearing the overalls of the electric tower, was gazing at the general who left in the square in front of the factory. The checking code in his hand was calculating the "conceptual information" of the general.

Ordinary people are unable to identify a general, and the concept of his whole body is completely obscured by the fiery information flow of the industrial furnace, and ordinary people can only feel the power of oppression from it.

Enma also used his military rank and the license plate number information of the vehicle as an introduction to "know the legend" on him. Of course, this can only be known, and some private information cannot be known about those rumors that are publicly displayed in newspapers. .It is equivalent to entering keywords into a search engine in the 21st century to understand general information.

Sugemat is a level [-] hero unit whose skills are "Gravel Defense" and "Steel Armor Repair".

Wei Keng was sitting at the corner of the welding chimney, inputting codes with his hands like a chicken pecking rice, and the cursor jumped on the screen with his fingers.

The relevant information of this general appears as follows:

Gravel protection: when tanks and other armored vehicles discharge carbon black, it will be mixed with the raised sand and dust, and a layer of black armor will be formed on the outer layer of the tank, just like wild boars wrapped in pine gum armor, with an average thickness of one or two millimeters, but In wartime, it can flow on the armor like a slime, and can form a thickness of five centimeters in front of the front when charging. The carbon black mixed in it will even form an explosive reaction effect after being hit by an enemy shell.

Steel armor repair: the iron element in the gravel will be restored by the exhaust carbon black, and then penetrate into the armor that has been shaken and cracked.And it will go deep into the mechanical parts, allowing it to repair metal fatigue.

It is to increase blood and increase defense.Among them, the defense increased by the gravel protection cannot be superimposed.

Sugemat's gravel protection is level two, which can strengthen fifteen heavy armored units. On this continent, the land heavy armored corps consists of twelve land cruiser-level units, forming a brigade.

And the land cruiser led by the hero unit in this world has a minimum of [-] tons, and the highest level unit even has a thousand tons.

...The aristocratic system makes the military vehicle platform develop towards the direction of single integration...

Super-heavy armor is the evolution route of armor units without nuclear bombs.

Armored vehicles are similar to ancient cavalry regiments.Before there was no clearing weapon like firearms.Everyone is desperately adding armor.In the classical era, the heavy infantry pushed the line and the heavy cavalry charged.

After the forged steel rifle appeared, the cavalry had to reduce their armor and return to mobility.The emergence of nuclear weapons also made tanks abandon the heavy tank route.

In the ancient industrial age of the main world, during World War II in the twentieth century, the design route of heavy tanks focused on protection, so the maximum speed of their road maneuvers was [-] kilometers per hour.

At that time, in the battle of the large corps, the daily advancing speed of the corps was about 35 kilometers, which was enough for heavy tanks.

During World War II, a series of heavy tanks such as the Tiger tank, relying on higher armor, achieved more than a dozen victories.

Decades later, the main battle tanks, regardless of their weight is higher than the Tiger, because they have benefited from the development of mechanical power. They are stuck in the marching standard, with a speed of 67 kilometers per hour, and some have a speed of 72 kilometers per hour.

The design idea of ​​the main battle tank is that after the enemy's nuclear bombing creates a gap in the defense line, the armored force must quickly fill it up.

This is when superpowers such as the United States and the Soviet Union confirmed their "military development direction" during nuclear bomb tests and armored assault drills.

In other words, if there were no nuclear bombs, the main battle tanks would collectively gain weight.

It will even evolve the ability to swim across rivers independently without bridges.

...Multiple planes, different world physics are slightly different...

The Wanlun Continent is a world without nuclear bombs, or in other words, the chain reaction is restricted.

地球上u235在链式反应中释放中子的速度是1变2，2变4，4变8指数增生，造成核爆炸。

This world is good. Once the number of neutrons reaches a certain level, they will tunnel!The neutron density is stuck at an upper limit, that is, the enriched uranium will not explode like explosives, but will burn slowly like coal.

This makes uranium and plutonium a good fuel, not an uncontrollable explosive.

And even more curiously, the neutrons in the chain reaction do not disappear after tunneling.This neutron can be exported to become a neutron source.

The "micro-transmission array technology" of this era, that is, very small honeycomb launch tubes, is comparable to the micro-manufacturing of chips. It can directly guide the neutron source of the redundant tunneling of the reactor to another reactor at a distance of ten kilometers. .

In this case, "thorium 232" immediately becomes combustible uranium 233 after accepting the extra neutron.

That is, the uranium mine reactor of a heavy tank can provide resources for the surrounding miniaturized thorium reactor tanks, allowing them to generate a steady stream of burning power!
Therefore, in this era, the battle in the steam age can last for thousands of years, and the fighting becomes more and more intense, and there is no sign of exhaustion of resources.

The nuclear technology on the Wanlun Continent originated from the phenomenon discovered by arcanists in the era of arcane magic.

Of course, the Arcane Masters are responsible for discovering that the new gods make this phenomenon popular, and then solidify the physical conditions. (The upper limit of neutron density is the solidified rule of the new gods)

Wei Keng muttered after learning about this mystery: The villagers here have shared nuclear fusion technology with you.

On the multidimensional plane, not only the nuclear technology comes from the ancient arcane masters, but also the internal combustion engine technology, and the technology traced back to the source is also the technology of the ancient goblins.

In this era, the internal combustion engine of a tank is only equivalent to the role of a "starting battery", allowing heavy tanks to start faster and more conveniently.

...the God of "Technology", playing technology very darkly...

Enma closed the notebook in front of him. This was originally a projection illusion notebook. After Wei Keng folded it many times, it became the size of a rubber, and finally put it in his pocket.

Wei Keng unfolded the horizontal map above the "T"-shaped continent, looking at the situation of Sky Empire on the battlefield.Although the entire empire still has more than 400 million troops, the total military strength seems to be not much different from that of the opponent, but it is only similar in numbers, and there are fewer and fewer men in the country.

The elite mechanical brigade led by the heroes of the Sky Empire has only sixty combat regiments, while the enemies of the Western Empire have assembled at least ninety combat regiments led by heroes.

If the sky empire's front line collapses, the empire will have to accept peace, and the industrial chain and beliefs will also change.

Enma leisurely looked at the mist and white smoke from the cooling tower in the distance, and whispered: "Let's not talk about the rise and fall of the world, and everyone is responsible for it, but the truth of 'prospering people is suffering, dying people is even more suffering' is inevitable."

...At the end of the empire, it is like a terminally ill person who can only hang on painkillers...

Three months later, Enma was also formally dismissed by Majack's factory, and the reason it turned out was not a fight.It's "not active at work".

Master Wei felt that this reason made sense, and gave him a thumbs up!

Wei Keng is "not active" towards the assembly line factory, Wei Keng: "The workload of more than nine hours a day, how can I be active?"

These days, in the factory, it is not "If you don't do it, someone else will do it", but "If you don't do it, you have to be cannon fodder".

All the factory owners, in today's world, have brought into the "Schindler's list" the status of saviors one by one, thinking that rural workers can eat a stable meal in the city, they should be "grateful" and regard "factory owners as rebirth" parents".

Enma made a memorandum on this: when a group of people in the upper class can give the group of people below a "chance of redemption" without paying a price.When the upper class can easily be "good people who save others", "their upper class are all kind-hearted" created, then the whole world is permeated with hypocrisy.

...Looking back at the ancient industrial era, the years are quiet and the humanities in the peaceful era...

In Hollywood culture, when almost all superheroes can easily save a large number of civilians, while maintaining good looks and good taste.

At that time, this unipolar superpower was the most hypocritical. It was in the position of the police all the time, brought in to punish evil, and taught the "people in other countries who did not understand" how to learn justice and democracy and enter a life of free values.

...In the midst of obscenity, the villain looks unusually abrupt...

In front of the factory building, after receiving the dismissal order, Enma slapped the administrator and then kicked him.Swaggeringly shouted: "Eating shit, I quit."

Enma's fierce appearance was revealed, and the guards in the factory were shocked for a moment, and could only watch the young man leave.

As for the next few days, the workers in the factory speculated that the resigned Enma would be taken away by the conscription office in a few days.Wei Keng has already opened a small clinic on the other side of the city.At the same time, they collected enough tax money to stay in the city.

After September, Enma's clinic opened.In fact, there were not many customers.After all, in the profession of doctors, an appearance that is too young is not convincing.

The only ones who were interested were a few charming widows in the city who threw out their handkerchiefs and asked "how to cure fever disease". Wei Keng was taken aback for a moment by his "full style" demeanor.

After being prompted by the system, he quickly realized that during the war, the ratio of male to female was extremely unbalanced.So it led to ~~~~~~
Enma didn't do "quack" and sent these ladies away.

The doctor's business is closed, but Mr. Wei can still be a tinkerer, mending pots, bowls, locks, watches, and light bulbs. He is proficient in everything.

With Wei Keng's miscellaneous skill points, the team of inspectors who accompanied him didn't know how much Master Wei knew.

For Mr. Wei: "You look like a middle-aged man, if you want to make a living, you have to know a little bit about everything."

...gold always shines...

The young Enma finally eased the initial difficulties of the shop by repairing various small things.

After a few months, Enma's hands and feet were repaired quickly, and the guests on the street gradually became curious about what the young man's so-called medical skills were like.

Ever since, Limin Store sold the first batch of medical supplies "plaster".It is commonly known as "dog skin plaster".The main treatment is muscle damage, as well as rheumatism pain, and mainly treats insomnia.

Traditional Chinese medicine, this set, has a strong vitality in the case of insufficient basic medical conditions. It pays attention to "easy to obtain materials" and cheap methods.For example, cupping, Huoxiangzhengqi pills, until the 23rd century, medical resources were extremely abundant.Only then has it become a legacy.

As for the ancient times, the West does not recognize it, it is not popular in the West, or is it that the physique of Westerners is different?No cervical pain, no lumbar muscle strain, no insomnia?
The consumption of painkillers in Europe and the United States is as frequent as that of vitamins!The main consumer is precisely the working class.This fully shows that European and American workers are the same as Eastern workers, and they are also vulnerable to heavy labor.It's just that they choose to resist.

As for the small methods of eliminating fatigue and relieving joint pain in the East, can the mainstream of the West admit it?Admittedly, do those monopoly medical companies still sell drugs?

Enma's first batch of plasters worked very well, especially in the wet and cold winter, those old men, after baking with a heat lamp for 1 minute, put them on the front of the lumbar spine, and soon found that , able to sleep until dawn, instead of being tormented by the fine gnawing in the joints.Throughout the night, the joints were protected by a "magic force".

In the past, it was impossible to sleep without a jug of wine.Well, the key point is that this thing is cheap, cheaper than wine, one copper and three plasters.

...Of course, Enma's good medical skills are not only that...

In December, Master Wei made another mistake. On No. [-] Street next door, a guy accidentally broke his leg, the whole bone was broken, and he was about to cry and not want amputation.

Enma came just in time, so he comforted him for a while, and then pinched his leg slightly, followed by pressing, pulling, and pushing along the muscles, and the leg was connected.After wiping off the sweat, he told the patient, "Go to my clinic for a splint and it will be removed after one month. Do less strenuous exercise within three months.".

However, Enma said that the excellent technology is commonplace.

To the family members of the patients who came to deliver the pennant, Enma revealed his true feelings: Master has always refused to let me use the skills in my hometown. I can only pick the legs of animals in the town for several years, and I am leaving the teacher today.

Enma, who has just "graduated", adheres to the price that is close to the people, and the fees are very flexible. Sometimes he only needs "a chicken" or "a jar of lard" for patients.

Note: There is no bone setting method in traditional Chinese medicine that cannot be learned in more than ten years. This thing tests the hand feel and skills. It is technically equivalent to an advanced welder, and it is difficult to formally assess.

In the process of being displaced in ancient times, the doctor took the apprentice with him. The apprentice had to study for ten years before he could be sure that he could get started with the treatment of diseases. When the apprentice learned this skill to make a living, he also had to help the master to provide for the elderly.

In ancient times, when the East entered the industrial modernization society, in addition to words and pictures, try to record this memory as much as possible.As for finding someone to pass it on to, it is very rare.

At the end of the [-]th century, the national medical department found a dozen or so outstanding medical students as apprentices for an old man who could set bones, but none of them succeeded.

Wei Keng: If you want to say that this technology requires "savvy" and "talent", that's really the case. How did the ancients pass it on?

This is similar to a senior technician, which requires time and slow accumulation, and the most important thing is to be able to have a steady mind.No matter how talented you are, don't think about leaving your teacher in two or three years.

Master Wei fumbled hundreds of patients in the plane of Pandora, and got it out after a large-scale series of memory experiences.

Enma is considered to have set foot in the city of York.
