Chapter 376： Southern region

In a machinery factory in the south of Ailan Hill, workers are working hard to build temporary workshops with the color steel plates that have just been transported.

Because the climate in the south is mild, there is no need to build a very good factory building, and you can install machinery to organize production immediately.

Many Ailan Hill factories are actually semi-finished products constructed in the cheapest and most convenient way.

These factories have only simple courtyard walls, sometimes even fenced with military wire fences, even if they have external walls. Then there are machinery and equipment with various functions inside, and some technical backbones are dispatched from other factories, and with some magic **** of knowledge, a branch factory with good production capacity can be opened.

With these branches, all kinds of production capacity of Ailan Hill are increasing, and at least part of the production capacity can be allocated to civilian factories to improve the living standards of Ailan Hill.

Countless such factories have supported the Ailan Hill Empire. Especially in the southern area, most of the roads are very ordinary because the occupation time is not too long.

Therefore, it is very difficult to use roads to transport various military materials, and the dispatching organization is very difficult.

Therefore, the senior management of Ailan Hill has opened some weapons production plants nearby in the southern region, the main market is tank parts, auto parts and ammunition.

These production plants shortened the supply distance from the rear to the front line, and also allowed the 6th Army Group and the 13th Army Group to continue their offensive southward.

In fact, the Jesno Empire has been completely occupied by Ailan Hill. Using part of the roads and air transportation of the Palak Empire, Ailan Hill began to gradually take the Dothan area in the south, and even the northern part of the Jesno Empire. Industrialization.

"I heard that Ailan Hill's factory is hiring workers, I want to try it. I saw the recruitment notice in the small town, and the commission is very high." A young man begged his parents at home, hoping to be able to Go to the factory and try your luck.

Now many young people have become workers in the factory, and a few have the brains, and even after using the Magic Ball of Knowledge, they have become the backbone of the technology in the factory. The salary they can get every month is so impressive.

A young man named Ryder worked as an apprentice in the bullet factory in the small town for a month, and then he was promoted to become a technical engineer in the workshop. Now he has a salary of 10 gold coins per month, which is considered a very high-income category in the local area. Up.

"Look at how good people Ryder is. If you look like you, I know every day to go out and fool around!" This is what the elders often say to the younger generations in the families of unemployed young people.

"Learn a skill well, and become a worker in the future, at least you can eat a meal? Like Ryder! It's not a lot of money in a month!" Many people give examples like this to their children.

For a while, Ryder became a commoner idol in the southern region, representing a commoner young man who had no success in the old age, and was able to get a new life under the rule of Alan Hill.

Although in Serris and other areas, the monthly salary of 10 gold coins is already very shabby, but in most areas of Dothan where economic development is not enough, it is already a high salary that many people dare not dream of.

In fact, in addition to various weapons and equipment, some factories in the south have also begun to produce more advanced production equipment.

For example, for the pressure vessels required by the chemical industry, there are three factories in the south that are put into production at the same time. These large pressure vessels are actually very difficult to design.

"The workers we transferred from the north factory have very comprehensive skills. According to the evaluation of the work director of the workshop, several people are very familiar with the two types of lathe and milling, at least equivalent to the level of a third-level worker." An engineer said to himself 'S boss reported the technical results of the factory.

Modern technology, chemistry is also a vital part, and many aspects of products are realized by relying on chemical technology.

For example, this pressure vessel is an important equipment for large-scale production of chemical materials such as ethylene. The safety factor required for this thing is very high, because the inside is full of dangerous and toxic substances.

Pressure vessel refers to a closed device that contains gas or liquid and carries a certain pressure, including storage and transportation vessels, reaction vessels, heat exchange vessels, and separation vessels. According to the working pressure of the pressure vessel, the hazard of the medium and its role in production, pressure vessels can be divided into three categories, of which the third category is the most demanding, and the first category is the least demanding.

"The drawings they brought from the North Pressure Vessel Factory are all the latest container technology. The chief engineer of the North Factory has also seen it. They are definitely world-class." This engineer is full of confidence in the drawings in his hands. .

However, his words disapproved of several technical engineers around him. After all, the Northern Pressure Vessel Factory is indeed a good pressure vessel design and manufacturing plant, but it is still not so accurate if it is a world-class level.

In fact, Allan Hill’s internally recognized ranking is that the Meyn Chemical Equipment Group has the best pressure, followed by the pressure vessels designed and manufactured by Higgs First Chemical Equipment Factory, and the third is the products of the Northern Pressure Vessel Factory.

Of course, even if it is not the number one in the world, it is no exaggeration to say that it is the world leader. After all, apart from Ailan Hill, there is no country in the world that can produce pressure vessels for large chemical equipment.

The huge pressure vessels erected in the hinterland of Ailan Hill, and large ethylene projects of more than 100,000 tons are all proofs of the modernization of chemical production in this country.

"Don't be too careless! These projects are all key national projects and strategic investments and projects. You can't make trouble!" A leading government official, dressed in neat clothes, reminded his subordinates.

This is an important layout for the southward movement of the Ailan Hill Industrial Base. It is an order issued by His Majesty the Emperor himself, and naturally it must be implemented first.

He just listened to him and continued: "I have been thinking about the above factory construction documents for a long time. We have abundant oil resources here, and oilfield equipment is also being updated. Therefore, we have established chemical equipment companies and chemical plants on the spot. It's very ideal."

"We have a geographical advantage. As long as we don't pollute the environment and affect the surrounding agricultural projects, and gradually form the ability to manufacture equipment, we will receive the financial support from above."

"Now that we have the production drawings of the second-class pressure vessel and obtained the production license so far, we can simultaneously build the chemical plant and the chemical equipment plant together!"

"Your Majesty... This is not a small number... Can the people above agree? Before us, it was always an agricultural area, not an industrial area!"

"Not now, we will be in the future!" The city official clenched his fist and hammered his other hand into the palm of his hand, and said firmly: "We can't back down! During my term of office, we must put the backwards here and build To become the largest chemical base in Ailan Hill!"

It is easy for him to say that. In fact, the more advanced Type II pressure vessels require a lot of professional safety test data and professional welding tools.

For welding such equipment, submerged arc welding equipment is generally used, and this type of equipment is also only available in the Ailanhill Empire...

This is where the system of modern industry is powerful: it may not be difficult to produce a piece of equipment, but it is not easy to gather the production machinery to produce this piece of equipment.

All engineers were present, so none of them were completely laymen in industry. Hearing that my city official wanted to do a big business with great ambitions, he immediately reminded me kindly: "The finite element analysis has been completed, and the supporting data have been calculated. Otherwise, this is enough for us to keep busy. Years away."

Fatty Sandy, the genius mathematician of the Allan Hill Empire, used computers to lead a team to verify calculations such as finite element analysis, and applied this technology to production. This was also one of the main reasons why Monk Zhang Er was confused by countries such as the Puppet Empire that copied the industrial technology of the Ailan Hill Empire.

The shortcomings in mathematics have caused the technical disadvantages of the puppet empire. This disadvantage is very fatal, and there is no way to catch up and make up in a short time...

Another engineer also took a long breath and said: "My lord, the automatic submerged arc welding machine that our city purchased from the north is still on the way...".

It wasn't that they poured cold water, because the troops who were looking at them went south to join the war, and the roads in the entire Jasno area and Dothan area were temporarily requisitioned.

Railways are inherently small and intermittent, so the train capacity is actually very limited. Most of the troops going south now rely on cars, mules, horses, and air transportation to provide logistical support.

Therefore, many commercial equipment and ordered goods are very slow in transportation. Many regions are waiting to use these equipment and parts, waiting to sell these goods, which has also seriously affected the speed of industrialization in the southern region.

In the past year, the size of Ailan Hill's road construction team has increased by 8 times! From the original 200,000 people, it expanded to 1.6 million people in one go!

Such a huge scale is already unimaginable by many people. Five years ago, the regular army of a powerful empire was about this size.

And now, Ailan Hill, there are 1.6 million workers just building roads! What is even more frightening is that these road construction teams are not simple men, but workers with real road construction capabilities!

Most of these workers were prisoners of war, including ordinary soldiers who were not magicians from the Holy Demon Empire, and surrendered prisoners from the Jesno area. Ailan Hill used half of it, and half of the resettlement found a job for them, which is also considered as an opportunity for them to support their family. Therefore, these workers worked day and night to lay two important railway lines, north-south and east-west for Ailan Hill.
