108 The Dragon Who Drinks Oil

The automobile production line in Mayne has been built. Because it is the hinterland of Ireland and its geographical location is very safe, it has become a production center for automobiles and aircraft. Precision parts are processed in Seris and then transported here by train for assembly.

A Jeep has rolled off the production line. It is not the first car made by Ireland Hill. In recent days, Ireland Hill has produced more than 100 cars, most of which have been delivered directly to nearby Mayne.

used in military training.

Touching the car in front of him with his hand, the engineer in charge of the factory boasted and praised the products he produced: "This car is really handsome! I like it just looking at it!"

"Yeah! I like it too." An officer stood beside the car with his hands behind his back, unable to hide the smile on his face. This kind of car that can run as long as it drinks oil is much more stable than a war horse. Sitting in

I wasn’t tired at all from the journey up there, and I could even take a nap.

As long as there is a driver operating, the remaining passengers can rest while on the road. Moreover, this kind of car can also tow heavy weapons and equipment, such as heavy machine guns that were originally towed by horse-drawn carriages.

.

This is just the beginning. The second workshop is already assembling and producing trucks. The six-wheel trucks have stronger towing capabilities and are said to be able to tow larger artillery and carry more soldiers.

After gasoline engines could be mass-produced, this equipment became more popular than steam engines. Because of its small size and light weight, many aspects began to demand this equipment. For example, the Army hopes to equip cars with this small

Machines are used to generate electricity.

After all, whether it is a field phone or a radio, they all need a stable power source to support their work. Relying on human power generation is still unstable. Now that there are better options, who would use less perfect options?

The engineer looked at the jeep, pointed at the engine cover curiously, and asked, "But why do all cars have huge golden eagles painted on their engine covers?"

He felt that this obvious pattern was not conducive to air defense and concealment. Such a bright golden eagle was facing the direction of the sky, as if it was beckoning the opponent to attack him.

The officer didn't think too much. He directly gave the most standard answer to the other party: "That's how it was drawn on His Majesty's design..."

Shrugging his shoulders, the engineer felt that he must not be as farsighted as His Majesty Chris, so he gave up his immature ideas, nodded and said: "Yes, His Majesty's aesthetics is really impeccable."

In fact, Chris drew this pattern not only for the sake of beauty, but also for his own considerations. In the future, he felt that his fighter force could protect the safety of his frontline troops, so he thought it was more important to prevent air force accidental damage.

Of course, this is only one consideration. The other consideration is Chris's obsession with another world: he really likes the white five-pointed star design on the hood of the American Jeep, so he directly uses it.

on his own golden eagle national emblem.

"Have all the newly produced cars been sent to the mainland?" The officer came here to pick up the new batch of cars. This batch of cars will be sent to Dukou City and handed over to Air Force pilots and

Their commanders use them on their behalf.

"Yes, they were all sent to the newly established driving school in the suburbs." The engineer thought of those driver training courses and felt that it would be more appropriate for him to use the Knowledge Magic Ball to learn to drive: "The Knowledge Magic Ball is still too precious.

So I didn’t give up on training.”

As he spoke, he walked out of the factory workshop and said to the officers beside him: "The new automobile factory is built in Mein. The largest production workshop is in Volavo, and the foundation has been completed. The automobile production will only increase, and it will be so much that...

You’re so surprised.”

"Occupying Volavo has brought us more resources." The officer sighed and followed the engineer on the path between the factory buildings.

Unlike Fallen Dragon City and Naru, which are full of plains and densely farmed fields, the area near Volavo is already close to mountains.

This mountainous area is very huge. In fact, it blocks all roads between Mayne and the ferry, and all roads between it and Wallavo. To the north is Mayne and the ferry, and to the south is Wallavo.

At the southernmost end of this mountain, there is a vein of magic concentrate. Surrounding this vein are a large number of iron ore and coal mines. With these resources, at least in terms of iron output, Eiland Hill is already very rich.

Enough.

After all, there is still compensation from the Arant Empire, and the treaty has begun to be implemented. Carloads of iron ingots are being transported into Farud. In order to process these iron ingots, Farud has also opened a factory to smelt metals and manufacture

Products for civilian use.

"Of course, I heard that 3,000 professional workers were transferred, and 10,000 miners were supplemented with criminal prisoners... This is no small matter." The engineer talked about the content of the last meeting of the industrial department, with a face.

His face was full of pride.

The output of the coal mine in Volavo has doubled, and a factory is being built there to convert the coal mine into gasoline. I heard it will be put into production soon, but the quality of the oil is not that good and can only be used by the army.

The iron ore over there has many uses. I heard that a railway will be built from Volavo to Serris via Naru. A team to explore the road conditions has been setting off for more than a month.

"Look at the number of people, the scale over there is not smaller than here." The officer said happily after hearing the news about the development of the iron mine.

After all, the more iron ore is produced, the more weapons the army can obtain, and it can recruit more soldiers and form more new armies. And I heard that the Navy already has plans to build an experimental ship

A battleship with an all-metal hull and steam engine power...

Thinking of this, the officer couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the navy didn't compete with him for gasoline, otherwise the ridiculous oil production would really not be enough.

While he was thinking about it, the engineer spoke again: "Of course, I heard it is several times bigger than the iron mine here... The scale of the coal mine is not small, it is comparable to that of Tubao."

This engineer seems to have been frustrated by the issue of oil production for a long time. Thinking that the production of coal, iron and other metals is increasing rapidly, but the increase in oil production is slow, he feels full of emotion: "It's really confusing. We are all like this."

We have so much territory, but we can’t find oil..."

When the officer mentioned oil, he also looked helpless, but he still spoke to comfort him: "Don't tell me, there is a small oil field over there in Hanhai. I heard that the production has increased, but it still feels like a drop in the bucket."

The engineer laughed when he heard this statement, poured cold water on it and said: "Ha, seeing that there are more and more cars, the gasoline reserves are getting less and less, and the Air Force is applying for gasoline control.

"

The implication is: What is the use of that little increase in oil production? There are so many airplanes and cars produced here every day, and gasoline consumption is increasing every day, so the oil is obviously not enough.

The army officer felt aggrieved when he mentioned this matter. Their army had great military achievements, but in the end, they always fell short in resource allocation: "The air force is really... I heard that they use the Magic Ball of Knowledge a lot, and now they don't even have gasoline.

Are they all under their control?"

No wonder he didn't understand. Including the magic empire's first batch of command orbs to purchase rifles, the Holy Demon Empire has more than 6,000 command orbs in hand, and the air force accounts for almost 1,500! This is not a small amount, because after all, it is not

All magic balls are supplied to the military.

The army only took about 2,500 in total, and the Air Force took more than half of it. The Navy was not polite and took 600 in one go, leaving only 400 for the Army...

This matter has made the Army very dissatisfied to this day, because they also have new weapons in service, and they also need a large number of knowledge magic balls to increase the number of professionals in the army. As a result, everyone discussed at the final meeting that the Air Force took away not one of the 1,500 magic balls.

The army allocated another 100 magic balls to supplement the navy...

Thinking about it makes me feel bitter. When the Army officer heard about this incident, he was really dumbfounded. The Army clamored to hold a meeting to reallocate the money. In the end, he lost 100 magic balls. This is simply a real-life version of moving.

Smash yourself in the foot with a stone.

Seeing the wry smile on the officer's face, the engineer also remembered the "bitter past" of the Army, so he comforted him: "Don't worry, I heard at the cabinet meeting that the Air Force's request was not passed... It seems that His Majesty has already decided on that."

We have received the order to ensure the supply of fuel for Air Force training."

As if venting his dissatisfaction, the Army officer came to his senses and complained bitterly about the Air Force: "The planes equipped by those Air Force are simply dragons that drink oil!"

The engineer nodded in agreement and said, "Isn't that right... They are just a group of oil-drinking dragons!"

But they all know that no matter how much fuel they drink, the air force still needs to be built. After all, anti-aircraft guns cannot cover the entire Airan Hill. The best and most economical way to deal with the dragon knights is those iron lumps flying in the sky.

.

As for the oil production capacity, I can only leave it to Your Majesty to worry about. Anyway, I heard that Your Majesty and a few engineers drew a piece of equipment called a double donkey-head oil pumping unit, which increased the oil production of the Hanhai Oilfield.

If it doesn't work, just ask your Majesty to draw a few more drawings.

For the Airanhill Empire, there is no problem that cannot be solved with a design drawing. If there is, then let His Majesty draw another one...

Humanoid self-propelled plotting machine, its reputation is not in vain...
