Chapter 10 Blast Furnace Steelmaking

Once Wayne had disposed of Medina, it was time to start refining steel. After all, almost all the iron that can be bought is now used to make artillery, and now we all know that Stuyard needs iron if he wants to go south, so there is no more iron on the market. Even if the production of iron is not increased, even the artillery will be hindered.

Craftsmen who performed well in the artillery workshop were assembled, and some people were recruited from the workshop. After all, this group of craftsmen can't still do those low-tech jobs, and their task is still to cooperate with them to climb the technology tree.

Wayne took out the blueprints he had already drawn, and this time asked Reynolds to give a lecture to the group of craftsmen. After all, the theory part has already been taught to Reynolds, and Wayne wants to train Reynolds even more, and in the future, he only needs to draw pictures to explain the theory, relying on Reynolds's experiments.

Reynolds was a little nervous at first, after all, there were still so many people who were older for him, and it was inevitable that he was a little nervous. However, after seeing Wayne's encouraging eyes, Reynolds slowly got into the groove.

After the theory, it's time to practice.

This time, Wayne deliberately stood on the side, and Reynolds was the protagonist. To make iron in a blast furnace, two connected furnaces must be built first. Pig iron is smelted in one furnace, and the pig iron becomes mature iron in another furnace. Through the steel filling method that has existed in this world for a long time, it is possible to refine steel.

Reynolds was a little flustered at first, but Wayne made a point of letting him take a while in the artillery workshop and told him about some problems he might encounter. So nothing went wrong. Wayne read a few words from Reynolds and went to Evans, he needed more iron ore, carbon.

Walked quickly into the City Lord's Mansion and knocked on the door.

Evans looked up and saw the lord he loved and hated. He can give himself the confidence to surround Nolan, but he will always give himself a myriad of problems. For example, if you come here now, it is estimated that there is something missing.

sighed helplessly, and said distressedly, "Say, what are you missing this time?" ”

Wayne Rypi smiled and said, "Evans, how can I be that person, I'm here to care about your body, and see if you're thin again." ”

Evans said angrily, "Don't don't, I can't stand it, every time you come to this." I knew I wanted a lot of things this time, so let's talk about it, I'm short on time. ”

Wayne touched the bridge of his nose in embarrassment, and said cautiously, "I need a lot of subway ore, coal, the more the better." ”

Evans said angrily, "Coal is okay, do you know how much iron ore has risen recently? ”

Wayne thought he was bargaining for himself.

said with a little regret, "Then there is no way to refine enough steel armor for the army, alas~, you are so difficult, forget it." ”

Hearing this, Evans' ears pricked up. Evans, of course, only talked about the significance of steel armor to the army on the battlefield, that is, ancient black technology. One soldier in steel armor was enough to withstand three ordinary soldiers. This is absolutely important for the city of Nolan, which is short of soldiers.

Immediately changed his tone and said, "Wait, you mean to make steel armor, right?" Elber. ”

The secretary at the door came in immediately.

Evans said, "Hurry up and bring Spalding here, I'm looking for him for a big business." ”

Seeing that Wayne hadn't left yet, Evans frowned. I don't need anything.

Seeing Evans' resentful expression, Wayne immediately explained.

"Don't get me wrong, Evans, I'm not asking for something. I came up with a new gadget. War Securities. ”

Evans wondered, "War Securities?"

Wayne then elaborated on the role of the war securities.

Evans, who has been in power in Nolan City for many years, naturally reacted when he heard this, and this war security can greatly alleviate the current predicament of Nolan City.

There's nothing wrong with borrowing money from the future to get through the current difficulties.

It's just that Evans was still puzzled, "Will anyone buy this war securities, if we have a good chance of winning, of course there will be a lot of people who will buy it." But in our current situation. ”

Wayne laughed and said, "Evans, I used to be uncertain, but now I dare say that there must be a lot of people who buy it." We've easily defeated a magician, and this invisibly gives the people of Nolan a feeling. We also have some kind of great power, and if you let it out, that magician has already surrendered to us. ”

When Evans heard this, he suddenly opened his mouth, but he felt that there was something more important behind this sentence, but he couldn't grasp the inspiration if he didn't have it. Either way, it's good to get the money, albeit a little deceptive. But it's also for Nolan's good.

When he was done, Wayne left immediately. After all, it's better to go to the barracks and workshops a few more times.

"Kill!"

"Keep your steps steady, and don't be crooked when you look. ”

Balder was teaching Wayne artillery some battlefield fighting techniques. Originally, Bason's group was quite unconvinced by Baird, but due to Wayne's orders, only Heath remained silent, and reluctantly accepted Balder as their boss. As they slowly got in touch with Balder, they found that this Baird had the ability to teach real skills. And he never pretends to be a chief, eats and sleeps together, and unconsciously gets along well with Balder and his white-clothed regiment.

Wayne saw the gradual increase in the number of white-clad groups in class every night, and he also saw the change. After all, this is a branch of the military that will cooperate with each other in the future, and we must trust each other. He didn't want cracks in his army.

Bald and Besson saw Wayne arrive and immediately reported one after the other. Wayne is naturally here for business.

"No courtesy. ”

Balder, Besson lowered his wrist at 45°, a new military salute that Wayne had requested. When you meet a chief, you have to salute.

"I'm here to give you a new training. ”

Balder frowned, which meant he had a lot more work. Beisen's face is not good-looking, after all, he also has to follow the training.

Looking at the nervous appearance of his two generals, Wayne couldn't help laughing.

"Don't be nervous, it's a good thing. ”

This made the two of them relax for a while.

Beson then smiled and said, "Isn't it, give us more food for the artillery." ”

Balde hurriedly interjected, "Don't think about it, it is estimated that it brought a batch of good horses to the white-clothed regiment." ”

Wayne shook his head, "I'm here to tell you that you can start training your artillery." ”

The two of them exclaimed in surprise at the same time, "That's good!"

Know the two guns in your camp, these two guys can see them every day. But Wayne ordered that they couldn't touch it, which made the two of them itch in their hearts. This time I said that I could play with artillery, so I couldn't be happy.

Wayne said, "But it's not for you to mess around, remember what I told you about shooting Zhu Yuanbo." It's up to you to get that. And get the war horses of the white-clothed regiment over, so that the war horses can adapt to the sound of artillery, don't be on the battlefield when the time comes, the sound of artillery frightens the war horses. ”

Bessen, Balde had a smile on his face. Wayne said that it was not up to him to decide how much ammunition to use at that time. looked at each other and smiled, both confirmed each other's thoughts, and smiled even more happily.

Wayne touched his forehead when he saw the two of them. Fortunately, the last thing Nolan lacks is money, and there are war securities, otherwise he really can't afford to be a loser like them.
