Chapter 402: Tractors and grenades
Time is tight, and the season waits for no one.
Qin Mu now has countless problems that need to be solved urgently, but in the end he has to lose to Nong Shi.
There must be tractors, otherwise a lot of land is left uncultivated.
The small landowners in Fuzhou and Linzhou eventually went bankrupt. Most of their land was requisitioned, and in effect the land ownership was transferred to the New World Group.
In this way, the northwest has a land base for mechanized large-scale production.
No matter how urgent it was in other aspects, Qin Mu had to give priority to solving the problem of agricultural machinery.
The drawings of the tractor are ready-made, and this tractor has been improved and designed by Director Jiang.
Now Director Jiang is simply throwing himself into the ground for Qin Mu's admiration - look at the speed of people's science and technology, from paper to now to manufacturing tractors, it is simply an explosive development.
In order to keep up with Qin Mu's footsteps, Director Jiang specially organized the technical masters of the whole factory and set up an "Alien Technology Improvement Group" to serve Qin Mu's alien colony.
With the collective cooperation of so many later generations of technological masters, Qin Mu was able to build such a perfect industrial system super quickly in this time and space.
Now there is a diesel engine, as well as a gearbox and a chassis, and there is no problem with the three major parts. But Qin Mu didn't have rubber, so he couldn't make tires.
The technical team couldn't do anything about this. They can only provide technology and equipment, but not a lot of raw materials – that cabinet can't hold enough rubber.
Qin Mu has been tackling the manufacturing of dandelion rubber with stars and moons, and he has no spare energy to take care of anything else.
When the Guards Regiment handed over the expedition plan, Qin Mu read it carefully, and then wrote a comment: "Agreed." Another: Kill less. The issue of land ownership must be addressed! ”
Then he stopped caring about these and continued to devote himself to dandelion rubber manufacturing.
If you can't get rubber tires, you won't be able to catch up with cotton planting.
In fact, last year's winter wheat was not planted much in Fuzhou and Linzhou, and most of the fields were deserted. This is also a helpless move, and it is difficult to find manpower anymore.
The cotton planting season is about to begin, and all kinds of large machinery must be put online. If there were no such things, Fuzhou and Linzhou would have to be abandoned again.
Qin Mu had to abandon the construction of the ammunition factory and go all out to develop rubber.
As a result, the ammunition of the Guards Regiment was far from enough for each fighter to have a base.
However, although there was not much ammunition, the recruits were still very excited. Because the seamless steel pipe that can be used to make the barrel of the gun is made. In this way, the gunsmith plant can officially start operations.
The Gunsmith currently only makes one gun - a replica of the M1 Garand.
Individual rifle, Qin Mu is going to make only this one. The M1 Garand is the Guards' individual main combat weapon. The first is that this weapon has great firepower and has no opponents in this plane, and the second is because the soldiers are most familiar with the Garand rifle - all the old soldiers use the Garand.
It doesn't matter if you don't have a lot of ammo, as long as you can carry a brand new Garand rifle on your back, even if you don't have any bullets.
The new fighters loved the rifle too much.
Pick up this rifle and let them charge as spears. Of course, Shi Yi will never let the recruits use *** as a cold weapon.
Although it is not possible to give each soldier a base number of bullets, it is still possible to give eight bullets per person.
Replacing training with combat is the best way to train troops at present.
Shi Yi asked Wang Ying to call her brother as a guide, and then the army set off in a mighty way.
Because of the war, the Guards Regiment regrettably missed the grand occasion when the first tire rolled off the assembly line.
That day was simply a festival at Weishan Lake. With tires, Qin Mu can be said to have made up for the last shortcoming of agricultural machinery.
And it's not just agricultural machinery, with tires, motor vehicles are also possible.
Since then, although the Industrial Revolution has not grown wings, it has really taken off.
The first batch of students from Lanxiang Technical School have been studying for more than two months. And their learning has always been hands-on.
Excavators, tractors, seeders, all kinds of machinery except for the wheel, other devices are there.
Technical school students have always practiced on real machinery. Now that these machines are installed, they immediately transported them to various posts with people.
The farthest is of course the Lower Loop, which will take more than 20 days to reach its destination, but the closest ones will be able to start working immediately.
Steelworks devour large quantities of coal and steel, and it is far from satisfying the appetite of steelmakers by digging and transporting them by manpower.
Fortunately, Qin Mu had been desperately piling up raw materials before the steelmaking plant was put into operation, so that production could continue.
Seeing that the inventory was about to bottom out, excavators and transport vehicles were made in time.
As soon as these industrial machines arrive on the construction site, they exert great power.
The bucket capacity of this 220 excavator is about one cubic meter. You can dig 4-6 shovels in one minute. That's about 300 cubic meters an hour. Conservatively, digging 2,500 cubic meters in eight hours is no problem.
If it is replaced by manpower, at most one person can dig ten cubic meters a day, and there is no pressure on two hundred and fifty people on top of an excavator.
In fact, the excavator uses a track, which should be able to leave the factory as soon as possible, but there are some essential rubber parts on the excavator, so it is not possible to work without dandelion rubber.
Now all the supporting links have been completed, and the industrial chain with the machining center as the core has begun to run wildly.
Excavators, cars, and tractors began to exert their power on the land of China.
Of course, the one by one here is just an exaggeration. In fact, Weishan Lake is not that productive at all.
In particular, agriculture should not be delayed, so only two excavators were made, one in the coal mine and one in the iron mine.
Ten tractors were built, and all of them were shipped to the northwest.
The car has only one chassis, and the other parts have not yet been produced.
However, the use of excavators alone immediately relieved the shortage of raw materials, and some of the original mining workers could be freed up for transportation.
The sheer power of industrial machinery shocked all workers. Although they have all seen almost towering chimneys, monstrous blast furnaces, and smoking diesel engines, the excavator is still too sci-fi!
Because those things can almost be seen as immovable, and excavators are different.
It's like a Transformer traveling through this plane, and with that waving arm, it can grab such a heavy ore in one fell swoop. This is not a human being.
The awe of power gave the workers an urge to worship the excavator students.
He sat in the cab, moved like this, moved like that, and could control this big hand as if it were his own.
As a result, Lanxiang graduates quickly became the highest goal in the hearts of workers. Which excavator technology is strong, Weishan Lake Technical School is looking for Lanxiang!
However, to go to Lanxiang Technical School, you need a relatively high threshold, and you need to pass an exam before you can enroll.
At this time, the workers immediately and spontaneously set off a learning boom. They all have a common goal - I also want to go to Lanxiang Technical School and learn to drive an excavator.
Faced with such a situation, Qin Mu was also very satisfied in his heart. Finally, everything has embarked on the path of a virtuous circle.
Even if you delay the production of **, it is worth it.
Qin Mu didn't realize that he had delayed his ** production, but some people had not relaxed.
In the Shangqing Treasure Palace, Lin Shenxian's research on the Nine Heavens Soul Thunder of Shenxiao has not stopped.
On the contrary, he has now seen the first glimpse of the way.
Now the Taoists in the Shangqing Treasure Palace have duck meat to eat. This is all the credit of Lin Shenxian.
Zhang Ruhui hid behind a half-human-high earthen wall and watched Lin Shenxian fiddle with an iron jar. Not far away were three or five ducks tied together.
Lin Shenxian struck a match and lit a rope with a match.
The rope began to spark and burn all the way.
The other end of the rope is inserted into the tin jar. Lin Shenxian raised the tin can with one hand, and then threw it towards the group of ducks. At the same time, he turned his head and ran to Zhang Ruhui's side, pulled his apprentice, and both of them squatted behind the earthen wall.
A loud bang came, Lin Shenxian got up and watched again, those ducks were blown up in pieces, and none of them could die anymore.
Lin Lingsu let out a long breath. Hum! Sample, dare to call me out! You ducks, who else dares to be hard with me! I can't blow you up!
"Clean up." Today's improvements seem to have been very successful, and none of the five ducks survived, all of them were blown up. Lin Lingsu instructed his apprentice to clean up the mess and continue to eat duck meat tonight, and then went back to the house by himself to record today's gains and losses.
Zhang Ruhui hurriedly got up and went to clean up the ducks.
While cleaning up the ducks, he secretly hid the remaining pieces of iron in his pocket.
This Shenxiao Nine Heavens Soul Thunder is really powerful! Zhang Ruhui knew that if the Heavenly Master Army had such a sharp weapon, no one in the world would be able to stop it.
He must get the production method of the divine thunder, and then give it to Zhang Tianshi as soon as possible.
Now the situation of the Heavenly Division Army is very bad. If Jiang Ning can't take it, he won't be able to get the grain from Jiangnan, and without the grain from Jiangnan, he will not be able to contain the imperial court, and at the same time, his own grain reserves will be dangerous.
Zhao Ji made a decree that not a single grain of grain in the south of the Yangtze River could be transported through Jiangning City.
This is to starve the Heavenly Master Army to death.
This situation must be broken! Now that there is the Soul Thunder of the Nine Heavens of Shenxiao, Zhang Ruhui believes that the Heavenly Master Army will definitely exert the true power of the Divine Thunder, conquer Jiangning in one fell swoop, and open up the situation.
When the time comes, the world will be surnamed Zhang! He is also a dragon grandson!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be a little grateful for this troubled world. If it weren't for the precarious situation in the world, which made Zhao Ji flustered, Lin Shenxian would not have accelerated his research speed in such a hurry.
Lin Lingsu is far smarter than most people. He had already seen that the troubled times were coming, so he had to let Zhang Ruhui come to this small courtyard to be his helper, so as to speed up the refining of the divine thunder.
Now that the power of the divine thunder is enough, it is too inconvenient to use it.
Use a match to light the fire rope - Lin Lingsu named *** as the fire rope, which is very unsafe.
It's not that you explode and kill yourself when you light a fire, it's that it's hard to light a match in the wind. If you can't light a match, you can't light the rope, and then the divine thunder can't explode.
When you encounter an enemy, how can you pray that the enemy will give you time to light a match.
Besides, what if it's windy, or rainy, and the matches get wet?
Lin Lingsu had to solve the ignition problem in the wind and rain.
In response to this problem, Lin Shenxian began to rack his brains again for scientific and technological research!
The power of technology is explosive. When he saw the tractor for the first time, he was immediately shocked by this behemoth.
This tractor is much more spectacular than a jeep. This kind of machinery, Qin Mu can not do the general refinement of later generations, the current level of agricultural machinery is similar to the former Soviet Union, all tractors are stupid and black, and even the tires are more than half a person high.
I didn't delay a day, and while I was shocked, I let the technical school students start working.
Wherever the tractor passed, it was as if a new coat had been applied to the field – the deep layers of soil had been turned out. I couldn't help but be speechless - what a lot of strength this is, stronger than nine cows!
And the speed of the tractor is far beyond the reach of the oxen.
This one can't actually be called a tractor, in fact it should be called a "rotary tiller".
After this machine has passed, the field is tillage with a harrow, and the two processes are combined in one stroke, and then the seeds can be directly sown.
The rotary tiller can plough several acres of land in an hour, and dozens of acres or even close to 100 acres of land in a day - of course, it has to work for a long time, not an eight-hour work system.
Today, there are ten of these machines in hand – not all rotary tillers, of course, but also supporting machinery.
After the bankruptcy tide in Fuzhou and Linzhou, there were 200,000 acres of land suitable for mechanical farming.
I can quickly estimate a quantity: without delaying the agricultural time, I only need to have dozens of units, and at most only 200 units can complete the planting of 200,000 acres of land.
This is really a joy to seek. Even if there are 200 agricultural machinery, there are only 2,000 people who need to be served, and the rest of the idle people, etc., can be built up with a few thousand.
In fact, the calculation of the discount is really quite different.
Qin Mu's plan for the mechanized farms in Fuzhou and Linzhou was based on the American farms in the future.
In later generations, the average area of large-scale farms in the United States was 13,000 mu, and there were 200,000 fields in Fuzhou, and Qin Mu planned about ten large-scale farms.
It is for these large farms not to miss the agricultural time, so the entire Weishan Lake is fully engaged in the production of agricultural machinery, and everything is based on timely farming!
Therefore, in the development of **, Qin Mu not only fell behind Lin Shenxian, but he also lagged behind the Heavenly Master Army.
Zhang Guo obtained Lin Lingsu's full set of Shenxiao Nine Heavens Soul Thunder production technology.
He immediately changed the awkward name. What's the use of being so long? Don't you know that every moment on the battlefield is full of dangers.
The shorter the name of the standard weapon, the better. It's called "**"!
"Thunder" thrown by hand.
When Qin Mu learned about this name in the future, he couldn't laugh or cry. You have taken this name, so what shall I use? Isn't it only called "hand**"!
No matter what Qin Mu thought, Zhang Guo couldn't help but be overjoyed.
This thing, could it be the secret weapon of the Fold family?
That day, the Eight Immortals attacked the Song army at night, and the fight was smooth, and a fire almost burned down the old Zhao family.
This is really no joke. Zhang Guo and the Eight Immortals knew very well that if they could completely annihilate the Song army that day, the Yangtze River would have already been taken.
Taking the Yangtze River, at least the world is divided into two, and the Heavenly Division Army has a big advantage in owning the granary in the south of the Yangtze River.
But I didn't expect a thunder to fall from the sky, and the Heavenly Master Army that only blew up collapsed.
The general trend of the world has taken a fundamental turn after the fall of this divine thunder. For example, today the division can only be trapped in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, and it is completely unable to move.
Zhang Guo and the Eight Immortals discussed the divine thunder that night, but they couldn't think of what it was.
After seeing the Shenxiao Nine Heavens Soul Thunder, Zhang Guo and the others completely understood. It turned out that the Zhejia army had this kind of weapon - they knew that the Song army did not have it.
Now that our Heavenly Master Army also has such an artifact, how can we rest here and wait for death.
"Mobilize the whole army and work hard to produce **!" Zhang Guo gave the order.
At this moment, Zhang Guo was in high spirits. He held the divine thunder in his hand, as if he had grasped the whole world!
