After the main world connection area of a certain plate in the south disappeared, fights, group fights, and even small-scale wars did not stop.
It seems that the world is out of place. After aerial reconnaissance, it was found that several cities were missing a corner.
The city is not square, but the cities of the exiled lords generally maintain the setting of city walls. Because the lords' management capabilities are uneven, there will be more bandits in the lord area, and in order to prevent Fatel from suddenly wanting to expand, some retain the city walls. necessary.
Therefore, based on the continuity of the city wall, it is easy to judge whether the city is complete from the air.
Just like the disappearance of part of the city, the topography has also changed to a certain extent, and the impact of this part is more serious than the loss of a piece of the city.
Human beings live in pursuit of water sources...and the same goes for animals. There is a positive correlation between the size of a city and its water source. Many cities that are not near a big river must have mountain springs nearby that gather into streams, or have relatively abundant groundwater.
At this stage, due to the formation of floating islands, groundwater levels in most areas have declined, and the water supply from traditional wells has become smaller and smaller. Cities that rely heavily on groundwater have already begun the process of abandonment in their take-off stage.
Those affected in this wave are cities in the local area where streams are the main water source.
For example, if a mountain that the pilot originally recorded as a landmark disappeared, the city next to it would inevitably be short of water. Sure enough, less than half a month after the World Passage disappeared, the pilot witnessed a large number of people migrating in the local area.
Compared with the floating island period, the weather and climate at this stage have been much more stable, and even the rains are relatively regular. It is not difficult to find a place with water, but the difficulty is to rebuild a new city when food is scarce.
I intend to bring back these people who have lost their homes, but there are no conditions.
Although propeller aircraft based on radial engines fly fast and stable, they can no longer land on any flat ground like the previous gliding aircraft.
As for the Kingdom's existing gliding models, except for the three gliding Bulls owned by the Aviation Administration, there are only wooden ones. The wooden passenger type can only transport 1,200 people per 100 sorties.
One hundred sorties a day will inevitably affect normal logistics, but if there are not enough sorties, it may cause internal conflicts among the refugees, such as "Why should he leave first and we starve to death?" If the time goes too long, even the rescuers will be in danger.
After much deliberation, I decided to just use sugar.
Whenever a wave of disaster victims is found to have settled in a new location and reaches a certain scale, a wave of sugar will be airdropped.
There's not much risk if the plane doesn't land.
Airdropped supplies will be very conspicuous under the action of parachutes. You can even add a small magic signal light to the airdrop box to make sure there are enough people to witness it. As long as there are enough people to witness it, you will not be afraid of being embezzled by others, and you will see more It should be divided more or less.
For sugar, each new city will vote two to three times, no more, because there are two other sugar projects that have been decided.
The quantity of candy is limited, and there are no troops to go there, so we can only slightly improve the survival rate of the victims. The main thing is to advertise the kingdom on the box and create a good relationship.
Wang Qi had been considering this advertising method for a while, but he had never had a particularly good opportunity before.
In areas where there are lords, the lords generally will not let the people come into contact with such boxes floating from the sky for the first time. They will even start to drive the people away as soon as they can see the words on the boxes. This will not be effective and will also induce the hostility of the lords. .
Although a single lord cannot threaten the kingdom, it is not necessarily the case if there are more. The trouble of the demons has not been solved, and if you cause trouble, you are looking for death.
This group of victims is somewhat different. Even its plate is not adjacent to the Pangxun plate. Due to the number and speed of aircraft, the conditions for direct transportation are insufficient. There will probably be no interference from the lord army during the migration, so there are conditions for advertising. .
As for the remaining towns in the main world here and the victims of the disaster mixing together to fight and kill, I can't care about it, I don't want to care about it.
Cultural conflict is the most serious conflict in the development of civilization, and it can easily last for hundreds or thousands of years.
There are cultural conflicts within the Phoenix Kingdom, but overall, the mixed-race people in the penal colony are very complex and will be completely wiped out every few hundred years. There is almost no long-term ethnic cultural atmosphere and they are more accustomed to mixed living. Within the kingdom, there are the Night Clan and the Sharp Blade as the main ethnic groups. When their own safety can be guaranteed, the locals have limited interest in fighting and killing, and they can only fight in groups.
However, the humans in the main world and the mixed-race people in the exiled places have had historical conflicts or two-way discrimination for thousands of years or even longer. It is difficult to solve the problem with words, and Wang Qi is not willing to project military power outwards.
Conducting military operations there is a security war. For the Kingdom's type of army, it is more harmful than a frontal battlefield, because in a security war, soldiers must maintain high alert at all times, and often have to face people who are incited. After a long time, it becomes mentally unbearable.
The collection of recent information on the main world is also entrusted to local people through intermediaries.
In short, don’t be overly involved, and focus on cultivating your internal strength.
Speaking of internal strength, a big event happened recently. The turboprop engine passed the endurance test and entered the final testing stage!
After receiving the report, Wang Qi and Li Xiang rode a bear over to visit. By the way, they took some civilian staff to check the files and see how many medals would be issued.
The development time of the turboprop engine was very short, about two years, mainly by using some magic to escape a lot of lessons.
The project leader of Blue Sky Heavy Industry introduced to Wang and Queen outside the test workshop: "With the help of Academician Lava, we first solved the heat problem of the inner duct wall and successfully achieved wiring safety. During the durability test, the steel plant provided a A new batch of magic-adaptable special steel was entrusted to Xincheng Heavy Industries to be processed into shape. After the magic array was installed, the effect was very good. Even when the magic array was disabled, it could run stably at maximum power for more than thirty minutes."
Wang Qi was very clear about what he introduced. He even knew more about the body of magic adapted to special steel than Blue Sky Heavy Industry itself.
Because it was the first small batch production of molybdenum steel in the entire kingdom, all of it was given to Blue Sky Heavy Industry.
Molybdenum, like tungsten, has excellent high-temperature properties, and its melting point can reach over 2600 degrees. Molybdenum steel, which is mainly produced with molybdenum and certain carbides, is an ultra-secret material like carbide tungsten steel. The complete set of information will be in Back up in the palace.
Wang Qi looked through the sapphire glass observation window at the engine spraying almost colorless tail flames in the test workshop, and really felt that he could control the demons a little bit.
Although a turboprop has an additional propeller, it is essentially a turbofan engine. The only difference is that the flight characteristics of the propeller prevent the turbine speed from being too high, so the temperature in the duct is lower than that of a supersonic turbojet. .
But not particularly low.
Wang Qi asked: "What is the working temperature?"
"The temperature in the combustion chamber is about 1,400 degrees, and some of the front blades will also reach 1,350 degrees."
Temperatures of thousands of degrees were first judged by the state of steel and ceramics. After the establishment of Xincheng Research Institute, magic temperature measurement props were studied, which were similar to infrared temperature measurement. Later, the accuracy was changed to measure the thickness of tungsten probes. , can measure temperatures exceeding two thousand degrees, but even now the accuracy is still relatively limited. 1800 degrees is used as the dividing line. The measurement accuracy below is about 10 degrees and above 20 degrees.
Having said that, the blade temperature of 1350 degrees has actually eliminated all iron-containing steel.
Although the melting point of iron exceeds 1500 degrees, in practical applications, it becomes soft at around 900 degrees. The situation of iron alloys will only be worse. According to industrial needs, iron alloys are not suitable for use with operating temperatures greater than 600 degrees. Of course, there may be a few ferroalloys that can maintain their performance above 600 degrees, but they have not been found in the kingdom's industrial system, which means they do not exist. The highest application temperature of ferroalloys in the kingdom is probably a steam turbine of 400 degrees.
As for automotive engines, there is only one combustion in the cylinder during the four strokes, and there is no continuous temperature. There are also water-cooling pipes left in the cast iron blanks. They are not considered high-temperature systems, but they have put forward many strange requirements for ferroalloys.
Turbojet is the pinnacle of materials science and processing precision at the same time. Even if it is made by magic, its prerequisites include steam turbine turbine processing experience, new material investment, wind tunnel facilities, etc. It can only be called an industrial pearl. point.
Li Xiang also asked: "Isn't the tail flame very obvious? Is the power really high?"
The project leader smiled: "Queen, the power is very high, at least three times that of the Manniu engine."
