Xiao Lin didn't know what was wrong. According to the consuls' reports, the three kings suddenly changed their strategy towards the kingdom after making peace with the British, and Sholin thought that only the golden apple had this ability. However, the golden apple must have been blown up by the Kingdom's secret service. That metal shell, after many comparisons, is indeed the shell of the golden apple. Could it be that a damaged golden apple also has some power?

It's not that Shawlin didn't think that the golden apple was not destroyed, but first, he trusted the agents of the kingdom very much, and second, it was the confidence that Europe's performance gave him. If it really is intact, why didn't the people of the church go directly to the North American continent to use it? You know, even if the golden apples don't work against Indians and Asians, there are still millions of whites in the kingdom, and even many whites are at the top of the kingdom. With these white elites in control, it is much easier to subvert the kingdom than to rally the forces of Europe to attack.

Xiao Lin felt that those who survived the church should not be so stupid as to choose a difficult and not necessarily successful path. Therefore, he could only guess that although the golden apple could exert a certain amount of power, because of the damage, the power was greatly affected, and even the number of people who could influence it was reduced. Calm down for the time being, Xiao Lin began to actively prepare for war, in the face of the attack of hundreds of thousands of coalition troops in Europe in the future, the number of troops in the kingdom is too small, and the strength is too scattered, which is a bit bad.

Still, from the very beginning, Sholin implemented the militia and reserve system in the kingdom, and the entire military department was mobilized with a single order. Plans for a large-scale expansion of the army began immediately, and within the next two years, the kingdom would recruit 500,000 men into the army and form a new army that was no weaker than the garrison. In this way, the number of regular troops in the kingdom will reach 700,000. This is a lot of people, don't look at the World War II, Dongying was able to arm millions of troops, but that was after hundreds of years of development.

With the advancement of food technology and the advancement of marine fishing technology, only with enough food can we have enough people and arm millions of troops. 700,000 troops is the largest number of troops that the kingdom can expand without negatively affecting the kingdom's industrial development. A little more, and the kingdom's industrial development would have been sluggish or even regressive. However, an army of 700,000 is enough to use. There were not many valuable towns in South America itself, and the defense was directly reduced to a few major settlements, and the 150,000 garrisons were enough to defend them.

The remaining 550,000 troops will all be deployed in North America. The number of troops has expanded, and naturally it cannot lag behind in terms of weapons. The three guns of the Type 56 gun family have entered a period of frenzied production, and under the tilt of various resources, plus the previous reserves, they can produce enough guns for the use of 500,000 troops within half a year. The heavy artillery project, under the order of Xiao Lin, gave the green light all the way, and at the latest half a year, the 122mm heavy howitzer will be put into mass production, with a full reference to the Type 54 122mm heavy howitzer.

Other types of artillery have also entered the mass production process, ensuring that each regiment of the 700,000-strong army can have an artillery battery. In terms of machine guns, the production capacity of light and heavy machine guns has been reduced, and in addition to the necessary production lines reserved for the production of the Xinghan Society and the supernumerary army, other people and resources have been used to produce five or six general-purpose machine guns. In terms of tanks, the research progress Oh don't fight, although this time the tilt is greater, but if you want to imitate the No. 4 tank, it will take more than a year, and it seems that you can't catch up with the big war.

With no choice, Xiao Lin could only ask the research team to start the imitation plan of the No. 3 tank. In 1935, the German Führer ordered the development of a new tank of 15 tons. The developers converted a new armored vehicle into a tank with two MG34 machine guns and a 37mm or 50mm gun. GENERAL GUDE LIAN EQUIPPED THE NEWLY FORMED ARMORED DIVISION WITH A LARGE NUMBER OF TANKS OF THIS TYPE, WHICH LAID THE FOUNDATION FOR FUTURE GERMAN TANKS AND PLAYED AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE HISTORY OF TANK DEVELOPMENT.

Tank III was the main assault tank in the German blitzkrieg at the beginning of the war, accompanying the German conquest of France. But with the creation of stronger Allied tanks such as the T-34, the discontinuation of the No. 3 tank was also announced. However, the difficulty of building the No. 3 tank is much worse than that of the No. 4 tank, and it is a bit imaginary with the No. 2 tank, and Sholin does not need a fully evolved version, as long as it can be used as an over-the-top tank in the big war. The frontal armor of the tank was thickened to 60mm, and the gun used a 57mm rapid-fire gun, as long as the speed was guaranteed to be above 25km/h.

Their opponents will not be tanks, but the cavalry of various European countries, as long as they can keep up with the speed. Of course, after the tank, there are armored vehicles, armored vehicles, wheeled armored vehicle scheme, based on the White Tiger 1 light tank, the volume of the transport room has been expanded to three times, the thickness of the armor remains the same, and the diesel engine of the No. 2 main tank is replaced, and the speed is also 45km/h. Ditch the tank guns and switch to two 12.7mm machine guns and three 7.92mm fixed machine guns as weapons, and they will be a fire-harvesting platform for European soldiers.

That's it on the part of the army, and on the side of the air force, full-fledged combat aircraft have also appeared. Moreover, the airship technology has also been perfected. In terms of fighters, Scholin did not again copy the German aircraft that appeared in World War II. He only has one engineer in his hands who is a junior of German armored shooting talents, but he knows nine out of ten about aircraft technology, and he doesn't know anything about it. In no way, Xiao Lin could only take out the information he had collected on an aircraft to use.

Introduced in 1934, the I-16 was the world's first practical retractable landing gear monoplane. The aircraft mainly borrowed from the American racing aircraft "Wasp" in the early 30s of the 20th century, this aircraft adopts a lower single wing, the fuselage is stubby, and the engine power is strong, and its characteristics have a great influence on the design of the I-16. The I-16 is made of steel pipes and wood, covered with cloth and mixed with a small amount of duralumin plate for skin, and has a bulletproof steel plate behind the seat. With the technology of the kingdom, copying the I-16 fighter is not so complicated.

Of course, there were also improvements, and the armament was changed to one 12.7mm machine gun and two 7.92mm machine guns, and could carry two fifty-kilogram aerial bombs, while maintaining speed and climb ability. Combat effectiveness has been enough for more than a hundred years. In order to ensure a strong enough anti-aircraft bombing power, Sholin also planned to imitate the zeppelin, form a bombing team of thirty airships and simply replenish the airship in the later stage.

However, the most important breakthrough is still in the navy. The accumulation of naval technology has basically reached the point where it can build ironclad ships, although it is only a small ironclad ship of 900 tons, but it is also a very huge progress. The Type 32 frigate, codenamed "Shrimp Soldier", officially began to enter the construction ranks, and the armament was planned to be four 75mm naval guns, a mine arranger, and a 60mm small fish LEI launch tube. The maximum speed is 21 knots, regardless of headwind. The defense is more than a cut away from a sailboat covered in iron, after all, it is all made of fine steel.

The hull can withstand a heavy attack from 700m away, and it can be penetrated by close shooting, but it must also be able to reach close under the attack of the fleet. It can be said that even the twenty-four pounder guns of the Europeans, at 700m away, could not do anything about them. The shrimp-class frigates will gradually replace the clippers and sail transformation warships in all kingdom fleets, and some of the decommissioned warships will be paid for. The Xinghan Society definitely needs this batch of the most advanced warships in the world except for the kingdom fleet, and it is not a dream to buy them to beat the Qing Dynasty sailors.

This is also the fate of the younger brother, and each younger brother has to pay for the backward equipment of the boss. It's good to meet a technologically advanced boss, even if it is the boss's backward equipment, it is one of the best in the world. If you meet a boss who is not very technologically developed, weapons and equipment can only struggle in the lowest ranking of the world. Fortunately, Xinghan will meet the kind of boss in front of him. The kingdoms of the Americas, under Shawlin's orders, all moved.

One by one, adult men received military uniforms and entered the barracks, and truckloads of mineral materials entered the factory and turned into various weapons. In South America, towns and villages with poor terrain and little value have been banned, and people have all moved to nearby key cities. The royal army upgraded the walls built by the Spanish and Portuguese colonies, installed artillery and machine-gun points, and prepared them for defensive operations. Both continents are busy. At the same time, thousands of miles away on Sado Island, a battle of 30,000 people is about to begin.

The shogunate's more than 20,000 troops, plus 7,000 soldiers of the 1st Brigade of the Xinghankai and the Supernumerary Legion, had been facing off on Sado Island for two weeks. The shogunate, perhaps feeling that they were not coming out, was afraid of their strength, and finally stopped being patient, and the army began to march and surrounded the entire Aikawa Castle.

The New American Empire has been written until now, and Xiaoxiao really feels a little unable to write. A lot of things happened during this time, and Xiaoxiao's energy was occupied a lot, and it will continue for a long time. According to the outline, the plot is not as good as the ending paragraph. Therefore, after August, Xiaoxiao will start preparing for the ending in September. Many thanks to 351 readers for the collection, and also very much to several readers for their monthly passes and subscriptions. This book, which Xiaoxiao's debut is mainly used for hand practice, will be officially completed at the end of September.

After October, Xiaoxiao will open a new book. This time it's not about practicing, but really writing seriously, and I hope you can support it a lot when the time comes.
