49. The Years of Peace (18 ends)

New Earth Star Academy of Sciences, Sun Tiejian and Yang Tiehui are drinking tea. "Third brother, you are a busy person, it is rare to have time to come to my academy, let's say, what is the big deal this time?" "There is no big event, but I also have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace." Tie Hui, we have to hurry up our equipment, there is no problem with the formation of the army, but the equipment is a big problem for us, without equipment, we will not be able to form a strong army. Sun Tiejian said very seriously.

Equipment, the space war is about equipment, no matter how strong the individual is, but it is still okay to encounter a large-scale space fleet. In the face of the enemy's endless fleet of warships, how many ships can one person destroy, no matter how strong he is?

As soon as the issue of equipment was mentioned, Yang Tiehui said with a bitter face: "Third brother, I have worked very hard, but I can't help it." "I know the difficulties of your academy, but the equipment we developed is still very far behind the equipment of the Heavenly Tiger Empire, and we still have to rely on you in this regard." ”

Yang Tiehui shook his head and said, "Third brother, scientific problems are not something that we can solve if we want to. In the past, the equipment used by our Yanhuang clan was refined by refining the method, and the quantity was not too large, and it was still possible to produce it by hand, but to equip hundreds of millions of warships, even if everyone in our Academy of Sciences would use it for three days a day, there would be no way to produce it. Battleships aren't toys. ”

Battleship is not a toy, the performance of the battleship depends on the material, and the progress of the material is not able to progress all at once, each new material from the beginning of the research to put into use, it takes a long cycle, the performance of the material depends on the formula and production process of the material. The formula of the material is the top secret information of a country, and the production process is the top secret of the top secret.

In the study of materials, there is never a shortcut, in order to get a new material, it needs to go through thousands of experiments, these experiments require time and energy, but also need a large amount of materials, consume a lot of resources to be able to research. In the Earth Age, it took hundreds of years for the Chinese to transition from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age, and this is the difficulty of material progress.

After entering the high-tech era, the progress of materials is even more difficult, and the success of the research of each new material will bring a qualitative leap to the product, thus triggering a new industrial revolution, but in order to successfully research a new material, the effort required is very large.

Sun Tiejian is naturally not unclear about the difficulty of material progress, but he is also in a hurry. Without enough equipment, what would he use to deal with the attack of the Heavenly Tiger Empire? Time was running out, hundreds of years would pass in the blink of an eye, and if he didn't hurry up, it would be too late.

Yang Tiehui didn't have any good way. The main body of the battleships used by the Yanhuang clan before, most of the main body of the warships was refined by the Yanhuang clan using the method of refining, and the performance of the battleships refined in this way was not under the battleships of the Tianhu Empire, and even exceeded, but the main guns of the battleships were directly used by the main guns of the Tianhu Empire, which led to the weak attack power of the warships of the Yanhuang clan. Although the Yanhuang Clan had enough warships to rival the Heavenly Tiger Empire, these warships were produced by hand, and it took a warrior several hours to produce one, which was too inefficient.

If we can't build a production line for warships, we don't know how long it will take to produce enough warships just by hand. In the future, when the war resumes, the warships needed are not just millions, but hundreds of millions, as I have said before, the Yanhuang clan also needs a large number of ordinary soldiers, and the warships driven by these ordinary soldiers have a very high battle loss rate on the battlefield, and it is normal for a big war to be sunk by tens of millions of ships, so if there is not enough logistics production capacity, with the current equipment of Yanhuang, I am afraid that it will not take many battles to consume all the existing equipment, therefore, it is the top priority of the Yanhuang coalition army to establish a perfect logistics production line as soon as possible。

However, the production line of these warships is not so easy to build, it is not only the need for various designs, but more importantly, in terms of materials, etc., there are not enough materials, even if there is a production line, it is useless.

The various materials required for a warship are not ordinary goods, from armor to main guns, to chips to radars, etc., these materials have the most stringent requirements. For example, the string window on a battleship needs to be transparent, so that you can observe the outside scene, and the clarity must be extremely high, otherwise, you will wait to hit the port when the battleship is berthed, and in some very complicated waterways, it is not enough to rely on the radar on the battleship. In addition to these requirements, the defensive power of the string window is also required to be similar to the armor, otherwise, if someone bombards it and the string window is broken, then no one else will be beaten, and they will be hit hard. Therefore, the material on the string window alone is already difficult for everyone, and such a material is by no means an ordinary material that can meet the requirements. (Just like the glass on a fighter plane, it is also glass, but can it be the same as the glass windows in our homes?) Therefore, the quality of military supplies and civilian goods are fundamentally two different concepts.) )

If the materials do not meet the requirements, it is also possible to produce a battleship, but the performance of the battleship cannot be guaranteed, and the battleship with poor performance is only the enemy's military merit when it goes to the battlefield. The Yanhuang clan will never produce unqualified warships, and if the battleships are unqualified, they will joke with the lives of their own soldiers.

The main sources of scientific and technological information of the Yanhuang clan are two major parts, one is from the scientific and technological information of the Earth Age, and the other is from the Heavenly Tiger Empire. To be honest, the scientific and technological data of the Earth Age is similar to that of the Changle Star People, and compared with the Heavenly Tiger Empire, this gap is 80,000 li even if it is not 108,000 li, so the role that the data of the Earth Age can play is already very limited. What really makes the science and technology of the Yanhuang clan make great progress is the information of the Tianhu Empire obtained from the Winged Girl, however, these materials only play a guiding role, they are all incomplete, there is a lot of information just has a noun, there are performance parameters of materials, but there is no complete formula and production process, therefore, it can only be used as a reference, not just used.

If you want to restore the original formula according to the performance parameters of the material and the real thing, and then establish the corresponding production process according to the formula, this difficulty is definitely not the general large, but very, very large, there is too much knowledge involved, so much that it makes the scalp numb, what temperature control, stress relieving, molecular combination, etc., these are technical problems, it is too difficult.

Of course, with the achievements of the Yan and Huang Clan in refining weapons, if you want to produce one or two battleships of the Heavenly Tiger Empire, it is no problem to produce even the same battleships as the universe-level battleships of the Heavenly Tiger Empire, but refining the refining and producing the production line are completely different things. The establishment of the production line is the most important, but also the focus of the Academy of Sciences, but the time for the Yanhuang people to get these information is still too short, if you want to thoroughly understand the information obtained, and establish a complete production process, it is definitely not one or two hundred years to be able to complete, according to Yang Tiehui's own estimates, to be able to completely understand these materials within a thousand years, and establish a complete production process, this is already a great achievement. This is like the Earth Age, during the Second World War, but to produce a 21st century warship, without a long period of research, it is impossible to succeed. It is even impossible, and of course the Yanhuang people understand this.

Sun Tiejian said: "Tie Hui, is there any way for us to quickly have more and better equipment?" "Third brother, even if you kill me, it is impossible for me to complete such a task, if there is, do we still need to do experiments in the laboratory day and night?" Yang Tiehui sighed and said. "I understand, forget it, I didn't say what I just said. Tiehui, just speed up, we're running out of time. ”

Although Yang Tiehui only has expertise in technology, it does not mean that he does not understand politics and military affairs. The Yanhuang clan has already revealed more than half of their excellent side, the Tianhu Empire will definitely not let go of the Yanhuang clan, the Yanhuang clan has become the biggest obstacle to the unification of the Yanhuang River system of the Tianhu Empire, so, after the resumption of the war, they will definitely do their best to eradicate the Yanhuang clan, even if they pay a big price, they will not change their determination, and then it will not be a small fight before, but a decisive battle that determines life and death. If he doesn't have enough equipment, what will the Yanhuang clan use to fight? Therefore, he can feel the pressure on Sun Tiejian's body, but what if he can feel it, can he be in a hurry about science and technology?

Sun Tiejian thought for a moment and said, "Tie Hui, do you think we can use liquid metal to make warships?" "Third Brother wants to fight the Xuanwu Fortress Group?" "Is it feasible to have this idea?" "There is no problem at all with using those liquid metals to build warships, but, Third Brother, even if I can provide warships, can our army use them? Even if they can be used, how much combat power can they exert?" Yang Tiehui asked with a wry smile.

Sun Tiejian was speechless. The liquid metal of the basalt fortress group has the characteristics of assimilation, and if a large amount of metal is thrown into the liquid metal outside the fortress, the liquid metal will assimilate this metal into liquid metal, and the speed of this assimilation is not slow? If these liquid metals are used to make warships, the most important problem in the material will be solved. The performance of the battleship made of these liquid metals is very good, and it is the same level as the equipment in service of the Yanhuang Clan, the problem is that excellent warships also need excellent soldiers to be able to drive, and there is no way to exert the combat effectiveness of this liquid warship without a warrior of level 16. But how many fighters of 16th grade or above are there in the coalition army? In a word, can a battleship still be called a battleship without piloting? This is like if you ask a naval army of the feudal era to drive a battleship of the 21 st century, and it is a strange thing that it can be driven.

Can produce high-end but can not produce low-end, such a strange phenomenon can only be seen in the Yanhuang people, which is also formed by the specific national conditions of the Yanhuang people, only this one, no other semicolon.

Yang Tiehui said with a wry smile: "We are like two extremes now, we have no shortage of high-end ones, and we can produce them in large quantities, but we can't use them when they are produced." At the low end, we need it very much, but we can't produce it. It's infuriating to think about. Sun Tiejian also smiled bitterly: "Yes, there is still a long way to go for the rejuvenation of our Yanhuang clan." ”
