"I don't think the scientists in the imperial scientific research structure have completely given up on this field. Those people are not old-fashioned people. Exploring and developing new things has always been what they are interested in. But the current fact is that the popularization of electricity is just a matter of using electricity.
Just for lighting and basic communication transmission, most of the power operations in life are still driven by steam. It seems that the position will not be shaken by electricity in a short time." Sotagang said slowly, "Of course this is just my guess.
That's it - maybe something is limiting the development of electricity. That is a problem that even the empire's highest scientific research institutions cannot solve in a short time. Stability? Safety performance? Or is it a problem in mining and manufacturing? Or is it more steam power than electricity?
After all, the motivation it brings is much smaller?"
"After I came out of school, I read a lot of books and got a lot of precious information based on my identity. Maybe there is a reason, but it was blocked so hard that I couldn't get to the core."
"Of course it's the reason. As a huge country, the empire will never do meaningless things." Cassia was sure of this, but there were some things that he couldn't understand. "Actually, I don't know much about electricity.
, limited to lighting and communications, and of course some super-giant engineering machinery. I once saw a super-giant mining machinery in an abandoned limestone mining area. The main power was an older generation phosphorus tube.
Provided. The generation and heating of steam are accomplished using the electricity inside. There are also pneumatic weapons, Mr. Sotagang should be familiar to you."
"I have a business in this area. I have a few mechanics who are familiar with me. They provide various imitation or customized pneumatic weapons. But the profits are not high, and they all go into the pockets of those mechanics. This kind of weapons
I can understand the application of Hui Tuan." Sotagang looked over again, and he knew a lot. He had been an intermediate agent for nearly ten years, and these time were not just used in black market business.
"Abandoned super giant machinery for mining. As expected, it should have been built by the Imperial Mining Company." With a very sure tone, Sotagang's expression became a little confused here, "This is the place that I can't figure out.
As one of the seven giant companies in the empire, they can directly connect with the top scientific research institutions. Judging from the current status of electricity in the empire, their approach is indeed a bit strange. On the one hand, many large machinery and war machines almost always exclude electricity.
attitude, but on the other hand, they actively use this convenient energy in other fields."
"The volume of the neutron tube and the energy contained in it do not reflect each other very well." Cassia added.
"Or maybe,,,, as one of the power agencies in the empire, they have far more information than we do. In other words, they know when and where the radiator can be used. And in other areas
, only steam can drive the shafts to move?" Sotagang waited for Cassia's words.
Without getting an answer, Cassia looked at the white steam rising from the water. He had almost never thought about this kind of question, so it didn't matter what he discussed with Sotagang.
When the two returned to the house, it happened to be ten o'clock in the morning. It was a long time. After changing clothes, the four of them had no intention of going to the factory. Fortunately, there was some food in the refrigerator in the house. After a simple matter,
The four of them sat down and began to discuss the next plan.
At the table, the expressions of several people all became serious. To reach this point, strength and caution are the basic qualities that everyone has.
"My team will come up tonight, and I'll have to worry about the supplies of shelter and weapons." When he came back last night, Cassia also briefly informed Ye Jielin of the situation on his side. He tried again.
After calling Atuohuan once, we still haven’t contacted Atuohuan. Selmer should have already arrived there, and it’s only a matter of time before he meets Atuohuan.
Sotagang nodded and said yes. Bota spread out the city's floor plan, using the steam tower as a symbol. After three days of exploration, some areas were painted red.
"This is the result of the investigation. I cannot guarantee its accuracy and can only be used as a reference. The Ovelia you mentioned knows us very well, and the investigation information is extremely comprehensive. The signal transmitter was found on the bait released for the first time.
We have also sent people to investigate several airports, and there are indeed records of small airships landing, but it says that they are merchant ships, used to transport some valuable mechanical parts." Berta knocked on the table, "Follow this
Continuing to follow the clues, all the mechanical parts transported disappeared. The enemy cleaned up the traces."
"Active searches will not yield good results." Ye Jielin said, "Those mechanical parts are probably all weapons. Ovelia is very talented in mechanics, and the operation is confirmed to be in the second stage. There may be something inside
The Astus family has specially customized a new armor for her. It is very important for her to become proficient in using the armor as quickly as possible. She will not miss the opportunity to practice in actual combat, and she must think of ways to deal with it in advance."<
/p>
"War Armor..." Sotagang became interested. It was also one of the integrations of imperial industry and bioscience technology. It was just a war machine and would not appear in ordinary people's lives as frequently as airships.
.
"This is the source of your several small super vapor compression devices. But it is not complete because it cannot be overridden. Ovelia's physical strength has not fully reached the standard it should be, and some functions cannot be accepted and used by the second-stage surgery.
.But it can indeed increase the combat effectiveness of Ovelia to a higher level. The firepower is somewhat limited by the size, but the defense is a big problem for us. The fire blunderbuss should not be able to work, and the heavy machine gun that destroys the bunker may be able to
."
Sotagang smiled and shook his head: "So you asked me to prepare these things three days ago. Unfortunately, we are not Miss Ye Jielin, and we have the arsenal of Webley Company to support us. What you said
The better quality heavy machine guns of this kind are those that are actively sold into the black market by major forces and the military. They are not easy to get, at least for my current status. There are large-caliber platinum bullets, and platinum gunpowder can also be used.
If you get a lot of them, they will explode in a concentrated manner, and the armor will not be able to withstand it. I just want to lead the enemy to the explosion site,,,"
"What about pneumatic weapons?" Cassia interjected at this time. Pneumatic weapons have always been called the absolute nemesis of steel machines. They are often used on the battlefield to quickly cut through enemy heavy and giant armored units, and are also extremely destructive to buildings.
.The threat performance even exceeds that of aerial bomb clusters in some special missions and battlefields. It is just that the standards for use are too high and the rigid requirements for surgeons are extremely strict. In the imperial military, only those with a rank of lieutenant or above are qualified to use pneumatic weapons. And
It's just that I have been exposed to it and know that there is such a highly destructive weapon.
