Clash of Lords: Civilization Game Comes to Reality

"What are you thinking about?" Alicia gently pressed Ji Lin's head: "Have you finished today's work?"

Ji Lin was still a little used to it at first, but as he got used to having her by his side... he quite enjoyed it.

Five years is enough to cultivate a group of useful people.

The population size of the territory has been temporarily fixed at 350,000 people. Ji Lin needs time to transform this blank migrant population into skilled workers who will participate in the territory's work.

From farmers to workers.

A large number of new generation officials have taken up their posts in the upper-level management. This new force has greatly improved the vertical management capabilities of the territory and slightly freed the ministers from the heavy workload.

The mechanical computer near the city hall plays an important role in maintaining territory management. Although the "clock"'s ability is limited by the size of the computer array, it is more than enough to process the data currently generated by the territory.

Since this automaton took office, Ji Lin found that he even needed an archivist. After Zhong obtained the files, he could put the files away and put them in the archives nearby.

Alicia has one day off per week, and after getting off work on time, she can take the train from the territory to the Sky Island in half an hour to find Ji Lin sitting in the office and give him benefits.

"I was looking at the technical report. Researchers from the Academy of Engineering said that the second batch of the new walking mecha has been released." Ji Lin took out a design drawing and placed it in the sun, looking at the outlined solid frame through the sun.

The 꿗-type walking mecha uses 꿯-jointed walking legs and can freely switch between the 20mm semi-automatic cannon and the 75mm reduced-charge long-barreled cannon.

Engineers used the high-heat light flow generated by the arcane generator to weld a layer of 45mm equivalent steel plate on the frame... The hot light flow welding requires a rune craftsman or a spellcaster to perform the operation, allowing Ji Lin to start half of the machine in advance. Enjoy the benefits of acetylene welding machines in this era.

"People from the Engineering Academy have improved the welding process in large-scale production. The installation of welded armor now takes 10% less welding time than before. They said that the next batch will need to wait 15% of the production cycle due to installation and training."

Welded armor is stronger than riveted armor. You need to worry about the internal rivets being impacted and ejecting in a narrow space like a bullet if the main armor is damaged in battle.

The 45mm equivalent steel plate on the front is a little weak, but it is enough to resist small projectile attacks. Ji Lin hopes that this walking machine can withstand direct armor firepower.

As for the joints, the joints are left to their fate, and the joints of a walker are as fragile as the tracks of a tank... much more fragile than the tracks of a tank.

The armor is thickened at the expense of maneuverability and terrain adaptability, and a layer of armor is installed on the joints that can withstand it.

and.

Retain mobility and terrain adaptability, and install a layer of light armor that can only withstand bullet attacks.

between.

He decisively chose the latter.

The impact surface of the walking machine's joint feet is much smaller than the manned part of the walking machine, and a large part of the damage can be avoided by lowering the impact surface.

He still remembered a saying he heard in a magical vehicle battle game before he traveled back in time: 'Mobility is armor, firepower is survival. ’

The main problem was that Ji Lin had no way to go back and ask the Engineering Academy to design a brand new armored unit for him from scratch. He used the existing steam mechanized unit improvements and then made some slight improvements to suit his own system.

For example, the territorial aerospace ship can use steel cables to transport this manned mecha to the site in large quantities in a suspended manner.

"Um."

Alicia tilted her head to show that she understood very well, and her eyes fell on the battlefield map hanging on the wall.

"Ji, do you think the coalition forces will choose to garrison in the 꺶 Plain?"

"They will abandon the plain area and shrink to the second line of defense." Ji Lin said: "The area controlled by the Western Front is enough to feed everyone in the coalition. The coalition can shrink the defense line no matter what, and then consider other issues after preparations. ”

Of course, Ji Lin didn't try to figure out what the coalition was thinking. He wanted to waste time.

If they want to seize this fertile plain, they will inevitably build a continuous isolation shield wall on the plain.

"The short war is about to end..." Alicia paused, and suddenly thought of something: "Ji, let me ask from the production department, will there still be orders after the war is over?"

"Huh? Did the production department ask?" Ji Lin hesitated: "There shouldn't be as many orders as there are now, but the high-quality steel we produce can be made into gun barrels and armor after processing... We will also provide some daily necessities produced by factories and adjust the market as much as possible.”

Contemporaneous lords can trade directly in the market, but lords can directly circulate resources in the expedition world...here, no matter what resources are circulated, the system is in charge.

"The cannery just built by the production department has produced several new standard cans. The new process can reduce one step. Ji, let's take a look at it then? You haven't accompanied me out for a long time." Alicia said lightly He asked while gently rubbing Ji Lin's head.

"Standard... standard?" Ji Lin thought and suddenly realized that he had found a win-win solution.

Standard 꿨, trade, system.

He can completely deliver his parts and equipment to the coalition through large-scale trade, and sell them some of the iterative production equipment. While completing the industrial upgrade, he can completely incorporate the lords on the ground into his own production system.

Win-win.

The key is that he now really has a set of industrial standards of his own... although there is a serious suspicion of patchwork.

The main body of this industrial standard was established by Jeanna and Guiyu with their civilization knowledge, and some of the technology brought back from New London was stitched together, so that Zhong, an early computer, helped him complete the work of the technical territory itself.

After receiving a large amount of equipment, the Eastern Coalition will unconsciously add his production system to the trade, use his equipment to produce his parts... and will use his parts standards to produce parts by default.

This is a deeper technical binding than the so-called alliance.

A screw can be used in the Sky Island Fortress, in the Peregrine Interceptor, and in the steel frame on the ground.

They can get a defective industrial system, while Ji Lin gets a large number of grassroots foundries.

A deal that benefits both parties.
