Chapter 1507 Inspecting the Ironclad Ship Production Base
On September 15, the fifteenth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao, who had not stayed in the lord's cabin for three days after returning from Liandao, once again left the lord's cabin in the Holy Land of Emperor Yi's territory. That time, Qu Mao did not go to Renhe Huanyan.
Although it has been nearly half a year since Qu Mao left Shaliu Hou Kingdom.
Boarding a navy super warship from the civilian pier outside the fishermen's village of Yi Island, Christine Silian was entrusted by Sylvia Ocean to personally take charge of the production of the ironclad ship, so she took the initiative to help Qu Mao personally
Driving the super warship, accompany Qu Mao to the southeastern corner of the eastern peninsula of the East Continent Bay to inspect the first shipyard of the Yi Di territory subway armored ship.
Xuande originally suggested that Qu Mao visit the artillery factories on Jidao and Liandao in the Holy Land, and then go to the engine factory site planned to be built on Liandao, and then go to the desert outside Shacheng, the main continent of the East Continent, Tassel Empire, Gilead Province,
First, we went to see the armor factory being built, and finally we went to the First Ironclad Shipyard in the southeast corner of the eastern peninsula of the East Continent Bay to see the production of ironclad ships.
Bu Nao Qu Mao obviously has no such interest, nor does he feel that those parts factories need to personally supervise them.
Regarding whether to cooperate with the production of ten shipyards planned to produce ironclads in the coastal area of the main continent of the east continent, the Island Power Research Institute began to prepare to build an engine factory on Liandao; in the northwest of Shacheng, Gilead Province of the Tassel Empire of the main continent of the east continent
In the desert of the area, on the original site of the former metal mine backfill, the armory plant and employee dormitories are being built next to the steelmaking plant.
The reason why the armor factory was built at that location is that it is relatively close to the raw material location. The metal ingots refined in the steel mill can be directly taken to the armor factory for further processing.
In addition, at the southernmost end of the reef chain belonging to the Reef Chain Naval Military Base in the Holy Land of Emperor Yi, it was discovered that the reefs contained a large amount of metal elements. The reefs themselves were not metal ores. Therefore, the Minister of Industry, Meng De, personally reported to Sylvia
·Oshen applied for land reclamation on the southernmost reef chain of the reef chain naval military base to facilitate the development of those metal ores.
Yi Di's territory has experienced many upgrades, and the reef chain area has also expanded a lot. For example, there is already a reef chain with a width of 50 kilometers and a length of about 500 kilometers, but there is still a vast space between the reefs.
sea.
Naturally, Sylvia Ocean had no reason to refuse Meng De, and Sylvia Ocean was also concerned about the production of ironclad ships. Not only did she allow Meng De to arrange for residents to go to the southernmost point of the reef chain to reclaim land, she even
The Reef Chain Naval Military Base dispatched naval logistics auxiliary personnel who were very experienced in reclamation and land reclamation to assist Meng De in reclamation and land reclamation.
Although the reefs themselves contain metal ores, the Ministry of Industry has to first carry out land reclamation, otherwise it will be inconvenient for processing.
After Qu Mao heard the news, he immediately sent someone to Meng De to deliver the development plan for the southern area of the reef chain drawn by Qu Mao. The southern area of the reef chain planned by Qu Mao not only included Meng De's ongoing metal mining area, but also
There are iron smelting plants extending to the north at the same time, including the Jiyijia Factory and the Cannon Foundry. The entire area is more than ten times larger than what Meng De planned.
Just when Meng De was preparing to complete Qu Mao's mission with a grimace, Sylvia Ocean saw Qu Mao's plan, and immediately made a plan, and immediately arranged a large number of naval soldiers to go to the south of the reef chain.
area, and proactively helped Mengde carry out large-scale land reclamation.
Even if the navy dispatched more men than Mende himself could employ, the number of civilians was greater.
Sylvia Ocean thought very simply. If the southern area of the reef chain completely followed Qu Mao's plan for land reclamation and infrastructure construction, a production base for ironclad ships could be built anytime and anywhere. After all, the reef chain is far away from the island.
Fukumura Shipyard is not far away. We already have artillery and armor, and with the engines installed on Liandao, we can build ironclads.
Qu Mao didn't even send the planning drawings to him personally, so when Meng De and Sylvia Ocean were in full swing carrying out land reclamation, Qu Mao was in the supercar driven by Christian Silian himself.
The warship is heading towards the First Ironclad Shipyard at the southeastern corner of the eastern peninsula of the East Continental Bay.
Before the super warship entered the dock of the First Ironclad Shipyard, Qu Mao ran to the deck very early, took out his binoculars and looked carefully at the coast.
Xuande, the first ironclad shipyard, was not fooled. Yuanji looked like a dark area, spreading along at least five kilometers of coastline.
The Fukumura Shipyard on the outlying island is the earliest shipyard in the Yidi territory, and its scale is not even that of a village. However, it is the first ironclad shipyard. Qu Mao feels that it is not an exaggeration to consider it a town.
After entering the dock of the First Ironclad Shipyard, Qu Mao jumped from the super warship to the dock. He found that the dock near the sea had wooden legs and countless steel bars tied together. Countless workers were working hard to fix the legs.
The frame was climbing up and down, and soon Qu Mao discovered that the metal frame was not only the leg frame, but also the external metal structure of the ironclad ship was being built simultaneously.
However, welding technology has not yet been developed in Emperor Yi's territory, so the external structure of the ironclad must be bundled multiple times with thinner steel wires, or fixed with screws and nuts.
Is the welding technology in Qu Mao's mind flashing around? Because Qu Mao vaguely remembers that welding seems to require the use of electricity. After all, is it because Qu Mao doesn't remember the welding technology? Waiting for practitioners in the industrial field of Yi Di territory
Let the readers discover it on their own slowly.
Qu Mao felt regretful: The ironclad ship sample from Fukumura Shipyard could obviously sail freely in the sea, but it was not recognized by the cheating system or the Birdman system. Therefore, no ironclad ship construction drawings were generated, otherwise what would happen?
As for being so troublesome?
Can we rely on skilled workers from Fukumura Shipyard to build the ironclad ship piece by piece according to the method of producing ironclad ship samples at Fukumura Shipyard?
Qu Mao also kept comforting himself. Maybe after other ironclad shipyards in Emperor Yi's territory were completed and put into operation, as the number of ironclads produced increased, ironclad ship manufacturing drawings would eventually be generated.
Just ask for the blueprints to be generated, and Yi Di Territory can use the method of synchronizing game construction and real-life construction to quickly obtain a large number of ironclads.
After spending two days at the First Ironclad Shipyard, Qu Mao walked along the coastline and visited all the ironclad shipyards that had been built and were under construction one by one.
Whether the navy of Emperor Yi's territory can permanently dominate the sea in the future depends on the number of ironclad ships in service, and the production efficiency and production technology of ironclad ships will also be improved in the process of mass production.
