The average annual consumption of billions of rounds of ammunition must be a layman's misunderstanding, because the projectiles used in magic firearms do not contain gunpowder parts and can be reused after being picked up. Therefore, during target shooting training, just ensure that the target itself is not too hard. Most of them can be recycled and reused.
However, no matter how much it is recycled, it does require nearly a billion quantities a year. This is also a mass production problem that the solidified boundary layer projectile under development needs to face. It must achieve a daily output of tens of thousands before it can participate in actual training and The significance of combat is that more than 500,000 rounds per day can replace existing conventional ammunition.
Ammunition steel consumption is also a channel that can be used to export Phoenix Coins. However, the quality of crude steel varies widely overseas, and the output is relatively small. In addition, air transportation conditions are limited, making it difficult to arrange.
Wang Qi went out for a walk, and then came back to continue promoting the peanut project. He occasionally went to the staff office next door to check on the progress of the "guests" in the main world.
The sacred tree peanut has completed more than a dozen rounds of iterations in a few months, and now there are three remaining plants competing for the final winner.
These three plants have completed the process of normalization of plants, self-flowering and fruit production, and then sprouting again.
The next step is to verify its wild ability.
Sacred tree peanuts are the weapon used by Wang Qi to determine the "basic labor price". They must be free of nucleoid contamination, easy to obtain, cannot have their origin controlled by large households, and grow normally among weeds.
He can spend more than half a year adjusting the development of basic strains, but he does not have to wait for tens or hundreds of years for peanuts to expand naturally. All three versions use seed control strains to spawn a large number of peanuts, and directly send them to the target area to activate the wild environment.
There is no need to consider the experimental conditions, just hire people to release in the wild at a ratio of 1:1:1.
The first target was selected in the chaotic areas of several sectors around Pang Xun.
The "Ganlin" plan is still advancing, but each phase is subdivided into more than ten cities in each sector, and the amount that can be taken care of is relatively limited. In some areas where disaster victims are concentrated, there are still many people digging in the soil and woods. Eat eat.
After so many years of floating island development, places with conditions for land reclamation have long since stabilized. Even if you can't become a farmer, you can still work as a prostitute or find some way to survive. The victims who are still scavenging for food are mostly caused by the excessive number of bandits in areas where demon activities are relatively active and the lords' low governance capabilities.
Compared with the demons, the latter are more annoying, but it is not in their own interests to defeat them directly, so they can only let the locals fight on their own.
Struggle requires weapons and food, and most food sources with stable output are controlled by vested interest groups. I wonder if the emergence of peanuts can slightly change the balance of power.
It's not a bad intention, it's all a strategic necessity. Areas without the ability to govern are equivalent to supply depots for the demon army. Although it may not necessarily change the balance of war power, it is still a hidden danger.
Unlike these areas that are relatively far away and can only be induced by throwing in some peanuts, the situation closer to the kingdom is even worse.
On the Pangxun plate, the kingdom has always had only one fulcrum in the north and south, Pangxun. Not counting Nitan City, a petroleum circle of thousands of square kilometers, there are six other cities on this plate, with a total of about 220,000 people.
Relying on the little oil flowing out of Pang Xun and Mitan City, these few have been disobedient all year round, and a few in the southwest even have the tendency to form their own country.
However, the low-level labor force has been outflowing for many years. In the past two years, they finally couldn't bear it and reluctantly started naturalization negotiations.
To be fair, the basic treatment in several cities around Pangxun is much better than in other sectors. However, the distance is too close. You can work in Pangxun on foot, so the disadvantages will be infinitely magnified. The point is that people outside the country have not learned to respect workers so far. Even if they can really improve their basic treatment to the same level as in the Kingdom, they will not be able to retain honest people. Only street gangsters who can take advantage will like them.
But after holding on until now, I know that I have to submit, and it's my turn to put forward conditions.
These conditions basically push the lawless madmen to death, and progress will be impossible for a while. However, many people can be seen fleeing the Pangxun plate with their families.
Wang Qi didn't care either. The property they took away was just a piece of "foreign fat" after all, and it would be used in various ways through economic activities.
way, flowing back to the place where the manufacturing power is mastered.
Wang Qi did not ask specific questions about the negotiation work. After getting a one to three year time estimate, he began to focus on the Pang Xun sector to make plans.
Not counting the Fenggu Plate, the Pangxun Plate is adjacent to four floating islands. Counting the two floating islands that can be directly seen through the gap, two more are added, including the two in the southwest and west-north direction. The plate split apart not long after it became a floating island. Its height was much lower than that of ordinary floating islands, and it was closer to the steam cloud below. Even today, the remaining larger fragments are dead and have no green color at all.
To the east is the Pilates section where the first batch of pot machines and wood gas technology were decentralized. To the southeast is the main target area of the second round of the Ganlin Plan. It is also named after its largest population concentration area, which means the black lotus section.
Black Lotus, the original name is the language of the orcs, Ntimalo Uhandiz Saka, it is even difficult to remember in Qin language. Although Black Lotus is a bit weird as a city name, it is better than writing a name that exceeds the registration form. Much more.
The name comes from the terrain. There are a total of 17 larger mountains in a water network, forming an arrangement similar to lotus petals, guarding a small alluvial plain in the middle.
After the island became a floating island, rainfall increased, and the central plain where Black Lotus was mainly used for agriculture was submerged. The water network formed a large continuous lake, and each mountain top was almost self-contained, with a combined population of more than 200,000 people. , and as the fishery gradually developed steadily, a large number of refugees from surrounding areas gathered and settled in the area around the lake.
The forces in the Black Lotus District are now complicated and there are many battles. This is not the goal of the second phase of the Ganlin Plan. The second phase focuses on taking care of a series of cities in the east and several node cities on the floating islands further east to prevent the demons from attacking the south. Infiltration, and construction as a war buffer.
Back to the Pang Xun section.
Among the several cities that are undergoing naturalization negotiations, only Hongye Lake has some potential.
The name is very intuitive. It is a city very similar to Elte. Even the area of the lake is quite different. It has a pretty good agricultural and fishery foundation. Because of this, it is obviously closer to the Wind Valley plate and is sandwiched between the kingdom. , but it can last for so long.
Hongye Lake still has a population of nearly 70,000, and the remaining five together only have a population of 150,000. This is all the result of absorbing part of the population after a round of bankruptcies in smaller cities. You can imagine what kind of rotten fish it is. shrimp.
It’s not necessary to cancel the city altogether.
The Wind Valley plate revoked a naturalized city called Obert, mainly because other cities in the Wind Valley plate had completed basic construction at that time, and a slight expansion of a few communities could divert people away.
If the cities in the Pangxun plate complete the negotiations within three years, they will not be able to squeeze out additional engineering power to complete population relocation in a short period of time, and they will have to renovate on-site, similar to the intersections, Dongshan Road, and West intersections.
But Pang Xun is too close to Fatal. Across the Broken Floating Island, another floating island is Fatal's territory. Wang Qi still hopes to delete one or two cities, preferably all except Hongye Lake. To the vicinity of the Luna River original river channel.
On the one hand, most of the Luna River original riverbed has now become a wetland, and there are still many open areas, which are good agricultural production materials.
In addition, concentrating them will make it easier to arrange garrison forces to prevent Fatel from having a bad brain and sneaking up on him one day.
Unfortunately, it is not feasible to delete them all. Even without mentioning engineering capabilities, people must bring their belongings with them when they move, and the overall transportation capacity of the Pangxun sector does not allow it.
Cancel two of them.
On the map that Wang Qi used as a draft, the two cities with the least population were marked with red crosses, which determined the future of the Pangxun plate.
As for Quagmire City... there is no need to hope for their naturalization. After all, there is oil under their feet. With the current fuel consumption capacity, the workload and income will be guaranteed for a long time. It is impossible to start naturalization negotiations unless direct force is used. .
However, having an unknown teacher is a big taboo that will shake people's hearts. Later, we will discuss the issue of drawing the line with Quanquan City, and it will be a foregone conclusion.
