Chapter Twenty-Six: Rapid Development
"Ding-bang!
In a building covering an area of 100 acres and made of boulders as the main material, the sound of iron hammering comes and goes. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This is the ordnance production workshop of the pothos, and since the receipt of the machinery and equipment of the Al Chamber of Commerce, this sound has never stopped, and a large number of weapons and armor have been continuously exported from here, arming the warriors of the pothos and enriching the ordnance warehouse.
"Boom!"
Mirren casually drew a black iron sword, the blade of which glowed with a palpitating cold light in the sunlight.
Looking at the long sword in his hand, Mirren smiled with satisfaction, and waved it casually, cutting deep sword marks on the test stone beside him.
"Good sword! Tell everyone, speed up the progress, and you must exceed the tasks assigned by the commander!" Mirren was a slave before, and was sold to two forces to do hard labor, without enough food and clothing, and often with whips.
Since I came here, I not only have my own residence, but also have three meals a day, and I can also enjoy free ale and roast chicken in the tavern in the living area. What's more, everyone in Pothos is very kind, and no one looks down on themselves.
This is a heavenly existence for Mirren, in order to keep this hard-won life, he works harder than others, constantly studying various forging techniques and improving his craftsmanship.
Because of his significant contributions, he was promoted to the chief officer of the No. 1 workshop, and not only was he paid more favorably, but he was also assigned a house with a larger area and a better location.
Word of Mirren's promotion spread quickly, and everyone was working desperately for fear of being pulled down by others. Therefore, the Ordnance Department was lit up all day long, and everyone was working tirelessly.
And this is just a microcosm of the work scene of pothos, things like this are happening in all major regions, which also makes the development of pothos more rapid.
It's been a month in the blink of an eye.
In the central administrative region, Lin Xiao's desk has recent development data, and on the ground next to him are some samples of military materials produced by the Ordnance Department.
"Commander, this is the statistics of this period of time, I will report to you!" Chopper still has that sloppy image, since he was appointed, he has not been home, busy all day reviewing and reprimanding.
This also made Lin Xiao feel a little guilty, if he wasn't too lazy, he wouldn't have tossed Chopper like this.
"Commander, since the replenishment of manpower, our production has been rapidly increased, and now several warehouses of 1,000 units in the storage area have been filled. The specific data are as follows:"
Armament: With the long sword you designed as the standard weapon, the armor is more beautiful and lightweight while focusing on defense according to your command. At present, 2,000 long swords, 1,000 sets of black iron armor, and 700 black iron spears and battle shields have been produced.
Materials: According to your requirements, all kinds of grain, fresh meat, etc. are made into battlefield dry food, with a total of 10 varieties, which are convenient for soldiers to eat in various complex environments. In addition, there are nearly 200,000 portable water bottles, lunch boxes, military equipment bags, etc.
Clothing: more than 100,000 pieces of military uniforms, administrative uniforms, residents' casual clothes, overalls, etc., and 10 units of cloth stock.
Grain: 1,000 units of wheat, rice, fresh meat, fish, vegetables and other types.
Minerals: 1,500 units of general metal ore, 2,000 units of metal concentrate, and 500 units of ferrous concentrate. Previously, according to your requirements, all ordnance was made of ferrous concentrate as raw material, and now it is still intensifying mining.
In terms of force: Due to Lin Xiao's advanced training methods and high-intensity pressure, as well as a large supply of black iron concentrate, except for the warriors who later joined the pothos, the strength of the original warriors of the pothos has improved by leaps and bounds. At present, there are 30 eighth-order martial artists, 200 seventh-order martial artists, and 600 sixth-order martial artists. Those below the sixth order, and those who join the martial arts later, will not be counted in the combat force sequence for the time being.
Listening to Chopper's report, Lin Xiao nodded with satisfaction, these forces and resources are enough to fight a small defensive battle. In fact, this is also Lin Xiao's first time in another world and he doesn't know the situation, the pothos is in the southernmost part of the continent, and it is a barren place. In normal times, I have been to Zhumeng Village as far as before, and there are more powerful forces than Zhumeng Village, and once it comes to the war of the lower-level forces, it is definitely not something that this material can support.
"Commander, there's one more thing to report to you. Due to the previous construction, there are still a large number of vacant houses and jobs in Luthos, and the more than 5,000 people who joined later are less than one-tenth of the total demand. The supply of the Al Chamber of Commerce alone may not be able to meet our needs!" Chopper put the most important problem on the table, Pothos has been short of manpower from the beginning, and even now manpower is still the most difficult problem to solve.
"I've thought about all of what you've said! In this way, all the materials that have been stored in the near future, except for military and minerals, will be left for daily needs and all exported to the outside world. Exchange them for gold coins and buy slaves from all over the world to fill the staffing gap!"
"Also, the construction of the military academy is nearing completion, and every 100 people will take turns to enter the academy to study!"
Since there is going to be a war, you can't throw all the warriors out like other forces and go on a rampage. In the future war, except for the top powerhouse, the strength of any individual is insignificant, if you can't do the order and prohibition, can't do the orderly advance and retreat, then you must be the one who suffers.
Therefore, when Lin Xiao was determined to start a war, he thought of the importance of the military academy, not only to teach them fighting techniques, but also to teach them to understand the art of war and theory, develop the habit of charging into battle in the group, and cultivate the tacit understanding and cooperative combat ability between each other.
After explaining everything, Lin Xiao and Chopper walked out of the office.
When he was on Earth, Lin Xiao only fought as a soldier and never managed so many things. When he first came to another world, he took on such a big burden, which really made him a little upset.
Unconsciously, Lin Xiao found that he had actually walked to the barracks, it seemed that he was really born to be a soldier to fight, and he could even walk to the barracks without any purpose.
"Aha!"
"Bang!"
"Come on!
"Back fall!"
There was a noisy confrontation and shouting in the barracks, which made Lin laugh at the confrontation game that he often played with his comrades on Earth, where a group of ten people fought each other, and the last few were responsible for inviting guests to dinner.
"At that time, it was really good! Okay, let me test your training results!" Lin Xiao recalled his life in the army, and immediately the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Immediately, he put on the black iron armor and chose a weakly guarded area, and jumped into the barracks!
