To a certain prince, the Viper was not a disposable battery, but a recyclable ammunition production line.
The snakes caught from Shandong are kept in captivity, and then the snakes are fed with rats and other junk food caught nearby, and then snake venom is produced on a large scale.
It is a wise move to use snake venom to make biochemical ammunition and equip it with bullets, shells, grenades, etc.
The total price of purchasing 30,000 adult venomous snakes is only 90,000 taels of silver.
This price is completely affordable for a certain prince.
But if tens of thousands of bottles of venom are mounted on the warhead, the braid may not be able to withstand it.
The sky is filled with bullets of smallpox mixed with venom, which will definitely make Huang Taiji's braided army "happy with joy"...
This is how cannon fodder troops fight against elite troops.
It is expected that the protagonist will rise up and shout, and then the cannon fodder below will start to go crazy and their combat power will soar. This is the world of metaphysics.
If that were the case, even the Gundam piloted by Braid on the opposite side would not be able to withstand the onslaught of the protagonist's mad army.
There are countless crazy mutants, flying, hiding on the ground, invisible, and using lasers, and they can all be knocked away with one punch!
It's a very exaggerated statement, but isn't that what some colleagues do?
The imperial masters of the Qing Dynasty were all vulnerable. This plot can be called an anti-Qing drama!
Zheng Chenggong led an army of more than 100,000 people, and there were also Iron Man troops to assist him in the battle. Under the Nandu City, he was inextricable from the braided troops mainly composed of Han troops.
The protagonist and his troops can fly the Eight Flags and play with their braids in the palm of their hands. If they are not super powerful in combat, they will have to drop meteorites from the sky. Before that, they will have to drop ice arrows, fireballs, tornadoes...
The white-robed dry tofu master expressed his dissatisfaction. It was useless not to accept it. The protagonist was so powerful, with the lion's roar skill and Yang Finger!
"Recently, we need to strengthen the security of the Academy of Sciences to reduce the possibility of being sneaked into the courtyard by the Donglu. Although the Academy of Sciences is not large, it has become the core of our Ming Dynasty's military research and development. Presumably the Donglu have already known the role of the Academy of Sciences, and will also be involved in the front To try to destroy it, factory guards must maintain a high degree of vigilance and respond to possible emergencies at any time. Increase the number of open sentries, hidden sentries, and patrol teams to ensure that there are people everywhere and that they are monitored around the clock."
A certain prince did not believe that a spy with pigtails would sneak into the palace, but it was hard to say about the Academy of Sciences. Fortunately, the Academy of Sciences was also located in the palace, making it easier to supervise and inspect.
"Then another thing is to ensure the safety of scientific researchers, craftsmen and their families. Whether they are working or living, they must be properly protected. Recently, we have entered a troubled time. Seeing that Donglu is about to attack the city, I am not sure about Donglu. Will the captives use assassination methods against our Ming Dynasty's scientific researchers, kidnap craftsmen and their families, and force them to leak military secrets. Therefore, they must live in centralized areas to facilitate the protection of factory guards. Adult family members can all be arranged to work in nearby locations. If you already have a job, However, those who work far away must immediately transfer their jobs. The principle is that the treatment is equal, and the workload and difficulty remain unchanged. If you lack relevant experience, you can receive systematic training first, and 30% of the salary of the position will be paid during the training stage."
Scientists from the Academy of Sciences are the most precious wealth of the Ming Dynasty, more valuable than gold, silver and jewelry. Bo Jue alone is worth not only 10 million taels, but also 5 million taels of silver.
Collision warheads developed from thin landmines have now been equipped on various missiles and have almost become standard components of Ming Dynasty's new weapons.
Once something happens to such a person, it will be a huge loss, and it will also cause the Academy of Sciences' projects to be greatly delayed or even stagnated, so a certain prince wants to make sure that they are foolproof.
Some of the craftsmen are locals, and others are recruited from all over the south of the Yangtze River. These people are all craftsmen, and their abilities are comparable to eighth-level carpenters.
Outside, the money one person earns can support a family, so the salary offered to them by a certain prince will naturally not be low.
The lowest-level craftsman has an annual salary of one hundred taels of silver. If his craftsmanship is recognized and the product quality is excellent, he can be upgraded to an apprentice and his annual salary can be doubled.
The highest level a craftsman can currently be promoted to is student, with an annual salary of five hundred taels of silver. If an invention is favored by a certain prince, the patent fee will be calculated separately.
Calculated based on the minimum salary of one hundred and two years, this is almost four times the annual income of ordinary coolies. Moreover, in the Academy of Sciences, they will not be bullied by outsiders and they have three meals a day. Naturally, the craftsmen are very satisfied.
A certain prince provided free housing for the craftsmen to settle down. The Academy of Sciences had a store specifically for insiders, and most of the goods were sold at low prices.
As long as you work down-to-earth in the yard, you can definitely ensure that the whole family has enough food and clothing. This is not the case for craftsmen, let alone the treatment received by those students and academicians.
"Yes! Chen Ding will do his best to ensure the safety of the Academy of Sciences!"
Fang Zhenghua did not dare to neglect. The Crown Prince valued the Academy of Sciences so much that, in addition to the affairs involving Zhenzi, the factory guards responsible for protecting his safety would also be implicated.
Even the airship was built by the Academy of Sciences. This place is the most important place after the rear residence. Currently, roadblocks have been set up at the checkpoints of each door, extra manpower has been deployed, and you must show your ID with a photo when entering or exiting.
"Your Highness, everyone in the Academy of Sciences is very angry when they heard that Donglu was about to knock down the gate, and they are willing to do their best to defend the capital!"
At present, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not arranged any tasks for the Academy of Sciences that need to be completed overtime, but everyone in the academy heard that Donglu was calling again, so of course they would not turn a blind eye.
Everything they got was given by the crown prince, and it was impossible for Donglu to give them the same treatment. Most people's hearts were filled with flesh, and now was the time to repay their kindness.
"The steam engine project will continue to advance. The steady production of mass production has been finalized, and the models under development must also be studied in an orderly manner. The airship has almost entered the small batch production stage after the test flight. Donglu is about to enter the city recently, so there is no need for test flight. After defeating the enemy, it is not too late to conduct test flights. Snake venom can be manufactured in large quantities, but extreme caution must be taken. Relevant personnel must take full protection before entering the factory to work. After the experiment is completed, all types of missiles that have been finalized can be mass-produced. Even anti-ship missiles can be used to kill Donglu outside the city, but storage work must be done to avoid explosions. The progress and output of military projects must be ensured, and manpower for other non-urgent projects can be transferred at any time. This can be done by The dean will decide based on the specific situation. If you can't make up your mind, just call and report. There is no need to come to see you."
The flagship product of the Academy of Sciences is not an airship, but a steam engine.
The former has not yet been officially commissioned into the army, while the latter is the best choice for both military and civilian use.
Although he still has a bad temper and is prone to going on strike at every turn, as long as he is in a good mood, his work efficiency far exceeds human power.
The No. 1 blast furnace of the newly established United Steel Company has been put into operation. Since multiple steam engines are used for air supply, the air supply reaches about 120 cubic meters per minute, which greatly improves the smelting efficiency.
The temperature of the air fed into the nozzle is above 550 degrees, and now it can produce more than ten tons of wrought iron per day. Although the quality is not as good as similar products in Foshan, Guangdong for the time being, it cannot sustain the large volume of pipes.
The steel for the artillery in the Beijing Arsenal is purchased from Guangdong, the steel for the muskets is purchased from Fujian, and the locally produced steel is used to build individual protection and tank armor.
Thanks to the large number of steam hammers that only eat coal, the United Steel Company can forge armor and armor very conveniently, much easier than forging by blacksmiths.
As its downstream armor factory, it can already produce 500 pairs of individual breastplates and 100 pieces of tank armor per day. According to the current production, it can arm 15,000 infantrymen in a month.
Including the parts that have already been produced, it will take about five months to produce enough armor to equip more than 80,000 people.
Only then will a certain prince have armored musketeers in the true sense. The only thing missing now is the muskets, and the output has been unsatisfactory.
Less than 4,000 muskets and 3,000 invincible first-type flintlock rifles can be produced in one month. The total output of revolvers and revolvers is only more than 30 pieces. Miaobi Pavilion
The Japanese merchants brought another five thousand muskets, but the water from far away could not quench the thirst nearby. The gap of King Jifu's muskets was probably more than 30,000.
Even if the arsenal in the capital operates at full capacity and the workers work overtime, it will still take more than four months to meet the army's equipment needs.
In view of this, a certain prince focused his personal weapons on grenades, which could already meet the daily production standard of 4,000.
According to warehouse reports, ammunition depots across the capital have stocked more than 200,000 conventional grenades, which are non-toxic types.
Thanks to the snake venom, poisonous models can now be mass-produced, but the difference lies in the warheads. The non-toxic models are painted with green paint, while the poisonous models are painted with white paint.
The reason why I didn't use red paint was because I was afraid of red-green color blindness. If I got mixed up, my teammates would be injured if they weren't fully protected. There is no antidote for this thing. If you get shot, you can only wait to die.
A certain prince's goal is to stock up on half a million grenades to ensure that each soldier can receive five grenades. If he does not receive a new gun, he can also use grenades to "throw food" when the pigtails attack the city.
The number of long-range weapons is what a certain prince is more gratified about. Not counting other mortars, more than 5,000 have been built.
Ninety new bronze cannons (M1857 12-pound field cannon), 135 Hongyi cannons, 244 large and small Folang machines, and 506 tiger squatting cannons and Three hundred and twenty-eight hundred guns.
The three models of "Harpoon" anti-ship missiles totaled 299, and the two models of "Scud" totaled 312.
The Guards Battalion is currently equipped with 124 natural tanks, 88 steam tanks, six airships, and more than a thousand cavalry. Its combat effectiveness can be said to be the best in the world within the pass.
With these weapons, we don’t dare to fight in the field, but self-protection should not be a big problem.
Even if the middle city and the new city are lost, the old city can still be held on.
If the old city and the new city are connected by railway, a certain prince is still sure that he can hold the new city.
But without this thing, once the middle city is breached by Braid, the connection between the new city and the old city will be cut off.
Before the invention of radio, long-distance communication required wired telegraphs and homing pigeons.
Cables can be installed on the New Town side, but even water lines will be discovered and destroyed by pigtails.
A certain prince was not afraid of attacking the relatively weak central city. If they attacked from there, they would not pose a substantial threat. Instead, they would be attacked by the firepower of the old city and the new city.
Under the crossfire, few braids can escape completely.
A certain prince had already arranged what should be done in advance, and the side of the new city was under the command of Wu Zong, the second assistant, Wang Jiayan, the minister of the Ministry of War, and Zhong Qian, the censor of the Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
The four generals, including Meng Ruhu, Liu Guangzuo, Gao Jie, and Li Chengdong, each led their own troops to guard the four sides of the new city. Xu Dingguo and Li Shourong guarded the north and south walls of the central city.
The old city is guarded by the East Palace Guards commanded by Zhou Yuji, Zhang Yilong's Guards Battalion, and Factory Guards. The size of the East Palace Guards alone has reached 50,000, plus the East Factory, Neichang, Jinyiwei, and Guards Battalions. , with a total strength of 70,000.
On this basis, it is not difficult to recruit strong men to double the total number of troops defending the old city, with 120,000 to 30,000 men.
If the situation is tight, another 100,000 people can be mobilized to defend the city.
Coupled with the help of a large number of long and short-range weapons, the braided army must pay a huge price if they want to attack the old city.
At that time, the city gate will be directly blocked, and if you want to break the city, you will have to blow down the city wall.
If you just use the ladder to climb up, the defenders will be equipped with a large number of blunderbuss and grenades, so this trick will be for nothing.
To take a step back, braids can get in, but war horses can't get in, and the Guards Battalion in the city is equipped with tanks.
The defenders can cooperate with a large number of armored musketeers to counterattack the braids during street fighting.
Not to mention that the East Palace Guards has a cavalry brigade and the Guards Battalion has more than a thousand horsemen, which together are enough to drink a pot of pigtails for the intruders.
Before that, Huang Taiji's henchmen must first withstand the biochemical warhead fired by a certain prince.
If a large number of people are infected under the "Tiannu Scattered Flowers" situation, and a large-scale infection breaks out, there will be no street fighting in the future.
Seeing the snake venom, a certain prince almost forgot that he had also sent people to prepare a lot of special bombs for the pigtails. This was an exciting thing.
The white phosphorus charge is injected into the body and can burn through human bones alive. It will definitely make any braid, including Huangtaiji, unforgettable for a lifetime.
DUM warheads plus white phosphorus ammunition are almost the ultimate nightmare for any enemy soldier.
Apart from the short range due to the large size and weight of the bullet, this bullet has few other disadvantages.
At present, more than 8,000 special bullets have been produced, and they are waiting for the war between the two sides to make their debut.
If the white phosphorus production was not too low, a certain prince would have wanted to equip the Imperial Cannon with a white phosphorus shell.
Dozens of imperial cannons fired volleys of white phosphorus bombs. This scene was really spectacular, and some people on the opposite side were immediately bombarded and cried for their parents.
If Huang Taiji had come a little later, more weapons of mass destruction could be built here.
Not counting biological and chemical weapons, hundreds of tanks can be built.
Although the quality is not great, it can still scare people.
The fundamental reason why Braided Bagara is so powerful is that he wears heavy armor, so that he can be invulnerable.
The principle of a tank is similar to that, and it is more powerful, but the engine is just unreliable at the moment.
The armor is ready for mass production, and the artillery is temporarily using mortars that can reload ammunition quickly. The only thing missing is a qualified engine.
If the engine quality is really good, the braid's nightmare will begin.
Only rivers could save their lives, because the first-generation tanks did not yet have the function of shallow crossing.
