Blessing from the goddess at the beginning, technology VS magic

After the victory, Bill and Monroe were reporting the situation to Red.

"Next, the five artillery pieces I hid on both sides formed what you call crossfire, giving those guys a hard blow. Bill was ready to mount his bayonet, hahaha," Monroe said with a smile.

Rhett suddenly stopped what he was doing and asked, "Wait, what did you just say?"

Monroe paused, then repeated to Rhett: "What I hide on either side..."

"No, no, it's the last sentence." Rhett waved his hand.

"Is Bill ready to put his bayonet on?"

"Yes! It's right here. Didn't you tell Bill? Doesn't Bill know about the artillery you hid?"

"Well, Bill... doesn't know."

"What a nonsense! You didn't inform the commander of your own military operations? What do you think? I punish you with three days of confinement. If you make such a mistake again, you will be removed from your post!"

"Yes! Your Highness, I will never do it again in the future," Bill said, kneeling on one knee.

"Let's finish explaining the situation first. Then they retreated?"

"Yes, they suffered too much loss and retreated. It's just that the shield is really difficult to deal with. I don't know if your Highness has any good ideas."

"I will think of a way, and I'll give this to you."

After speaking, Red threw out a document with the "Nirvana Army Reform Plan" written on it. Bill and Monroe looked at each other. Rhett explained: "I have wanted to put forward this plan for a long time, but I have never been able to find a suitable opportunity. Now that Monroe has made such a big mistake, I don't think we can delay it any longer. You guys should take a look first."

Red's plan is actually to regularize the Nirvana Army. It has always been a small team with unclear duties. If it doesn't change now, it will be more difficult to change in the future. The first is the organizational division, from top to bottom: corps, division, brigade, regiment, battalion, company, platoon, and squad. It completely copied Blue Star's army organization. There are about 10 people in a squad, three squads in one platoon, three platoons in one company, and so on.

Now the size of the entire Nirvana Army is actually the size of a battalion. No one is responsible for the positions above the battalion level. However, Rhett still set up a staff department. Generally speaking, this is established at the regiment level or above, but the entire The Nirvana Army only has so many people, so we set them up in advance so that they can get familiar with them.

In addition to the reform of the military establishment, there are also a lot of rules and regulations, such as not taking advantage of the common people, and robbery and other things are absolutely not allowed. The Nirvana Army must not do it. If there is any violation, military law will be dealt with. Robbery is no different from banditry. Well, once the army becomes bandits, then the army will probably no longer be under human control.

Bill and Monroe looked at the various details of the plan and couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect His Highness to think so long-term. We will definitely live up to His Highness."

"What I want to see is the results. If you don't understand this, you can ask me."

"Understood, Your Highness"

After Bill and Monroe left, Red began to think about how to deal with the shield. Based on his many years of experience, this thing must have a threshold. To put it simply, the firepower is insufficient, so just continue to increase the power. So he told Pearl: "I will go to Vic City later and leave everything to you."

"No problem, Your Highness"

Rhett got on his bicycle and rushed towards Vic City. Now the roads have been widened and important places have been connected to each other. During this time, Rhett discovered several abandoned mines, but there were not enough manpower to develop them. , it was put on hold for the time being. The mines have already used steam engines, and the efficiency has been greatly improved compared to the past. The annual output is about 10 tons of steel.

After arriving in Vic City, Rhett called Scott over:

"How is gunpowder produced now?"

"Everything is normal, Your Highness"

"Well, I'll give you a task to produce a new type of gunpowder. If it succeeds, then there will be no need to produce the current black powder."

"New gunpowder?"

"You know about nitric acid and sulfuric acid? It's in the book I gave you."

"Know"

"After mixing these two liquids with cotton cloth, a new type of gunpowder will be produced. This gunpowder reacts quickly and has almost no residue. There is no need to clean the barrel and there is no smoke. The power of the same volume is three times that of black powder!"

"Three times! This can greatly increase the range and power of the musket. Your Highness, I will experiment right now."

"Hey, wait a minute, smokeless gunpowder is very dangerous. Your random experiments may cause a huge explosion, so what?" Rhett said and took out a small notebook.

"Your Highness, what is this?"

"The experimental data I did before should be the most perfect formula. You can try it according to the above. I have also noted the dangerous operations. Be careful, don't explode."

"Your Highness! We should be allowed to do this kind of thing. It's too dangerous! What should we do if something happens to you?"

Scott's words made Red feel quite embarrassed. These were all existing data on Earth, and he just copied them.

"It's okay. Anyway, I've given you the data. You just need to find a way to mass produce it."

"Your Highness will not be disappointed!" Scott said confidently.

"Ahem, the air here is not very good. I won't eat. I will go back after taking a rest."

"Your Highness, the steam engine you invented is very useful. It shouldn't have to burn too much coal, which makes the smoke a bit big."

Hey, Rhett thought to himself, there is nothing we can do about it. If we want to develop now, pollution is inevitable and can only be reduced slightly. Thinking of this, Rhett said: "Let's do this. I will give you a plan later to make these eliminated gases less choking."

"Then thank you, Your Highness."

Scott gave Red a room. Because he still had to write a plan, Red decided to stay here tonight.

The next day, Rhett handed the plan to Scott, finished breakfast and was about to leave, but when he thought of pedaling back on his bicycle...

He suddenly turned around and pulled Scott away. Scott asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Your Highness?"

"Scott, let me ask you a question"

"Your Highness, please say"

"Have you ever seen a mine car driven by a steam engine in a mine?"

"I've seen it before"

"You said, if we move this thing outside, lay a track on the ground, and then pull a few carriages behind it, we can transport both people and goods."

After hearing these words, Scott felt as if a god had opened up the Ren and Du channels at once, and said very excitedly: "Your Highness! You are really a genius! I never thought of this idea."

"How about it? Can it be done?"

"Yes, it can definitely be done"

"Okay! Then prepare to build a track from Vic City to Dawn City. I will name this vehicle a train."

"The train is such an image. To be honest, Your Highness, I just like doing these things. Those chemicals make my head hurt."

"Huh?" Rhett asked warily.

Scott quickly said: "No, no, your highness, the development of the train will certainly not affect smokeless gunpowder, I assure you."

"Then I'll be waiting for your good news."

Seeing Red struggling on his bicycle, Scott made up his mind to get the train out as soon as possible...
