Secondly, there was a more advanced bullet processing production line.

Although the production line designed by Roland could also be considered a streamlined process, it was simply not worth mentioning in the eyes of military industry experts, who bluntly called it a workshop level. In their original words, this kind of product with relatively simple structure and process could completely replace more than 95% of human labor with machines, and rely on mechanical control equipment to achieve almost 24-hour uninterrupted production.

According to the military industry's plan, the initial investment in the new production line would be considerable, but it would save a lot of manpower and increase the production efficiency of bullets more than tenfold. If the number of people engaged in this production remained unchanged, the increase in production capacity would be even greater.

After the "cornerstone project" of the Nuwa Project was in place, there would be no theoretical technical difficulties for the equipment required for the new production line. Coupled with the enhancement of the propellant, the accuracy and lethality of firearms would be further improved.

Looking at this part of the report, Roland could only admire the accuracy of the other party's vision.

The number of ammunition has always been a major problem plaguing the First Army.

The number of workers engaged in related production has been increasing since the expedition to the Fertile Plains, but the problem of ammunition shortage has not been alleviated. Air knights, for example, are large consumers of ammunition, and training alone can consume an astonishing number of bullets. However, the process cannot be omitted. He has heard Tieaxe complain about the front line more than once.

If the ammunition production capacity can be increased, the possibility of demons breaking through the First Army's defense line by relying on numerical superiority will be further reduced, or rather, they will completely lose the ability to confront head-on.

As for related light weapons, the expert group did not offer more opinions—not that there was no room for improvement, but that they felt that the cost-effectiveness ratio of improvement was not high. The combination of general-purpose machine guns and bolt-action/semi-automatic rifles was temporarily sufficient to cope with the offensive threat of "degenerated demons." As for offensive tasks on the battlefield, they should still be undertaken by heavy weapons such as artillery.

In other words, as long as the enemy is leveled with bombs first, the infantry can easily occupy the territory.

Instead of spending resources on improving guns, it is better to manufacture more cannons. All actions should be led by artillery—whether it is offensive, retreat, reinforcement, or blockade, first fire a few basic quantities of shells and plow the ground once.

Of course, this is only for the short-term quarterly plan that focuses on quick results.

In the five-year plan, individual light weapons are undoubtedly a very important major project.

For Roland, he was most interested in the "one-year plan."

Its benefits are slightly lower than gunpowder and bullets, and the resources required are relatively large, but it is the key to determining the victory or defeat of the war.

The plan covers the existing heavy weapons in Neverwinter City, including two major improvement projects and two brand new projects, with the army and air knights each accounting for half.

The first is the old topic of the Graycastle Design Bureau—tracked tractors and armored tanks developed from them. This is also the only occasion where Xie can show up. Surprisingly, after reading the design drawings, the experts did not criticize it as worthless, but instead believed that the plan had certain merits under low-tech conditions. Compared with the equipment itself, they were more concerned about the "nuclear power core."

And when Roland took out the actual object of the Festival Cube, the atmosphere of the entire venue could be described as a turning point, and even the two government representatives who knew the inside story were stunned.

Even now, he clearly remembers the scene at that time.

Faced with the seemingly ordinary "stone cube," everyone's expressions were quite complicated at first. After all, the background setting is the background setting. Everyone accepts a little mystery for the sake of the book. Isn't taking out a stone and saying that it is a nuclear power unit treating the experts present as fools?

Panshi winked at him several times, and Director Liu even planned to announce a temporary adjournment to avoid further embarrassment and destroy the cooperative atmosphere that had been established with great difficulty.

But at his insistence, a chief engineer of power machinery reluctantly sent it to the test room for a simple output test. The chief engineer's assistant looked inexplicable and disgusted when he left, but half an hour later, he rushed into the conference room, so excited that he couldn't even speak.

Then the entire conference room fell into madness.

In the face of irrefutable facts, Roland found that everyone's eyes towards him were filled with a burning heat. Dean Wu directly dragged Director Liu out of the venue. No one knew what they talked about outside, but the most direct change was that the security of the factory area increased by more than one level the next day. All the armed police were replaced by serious soldiers, and guard posts and camps were even set up at the gate. If martial artists of his level were not almost ineffective against ordinary weapons, services such as chauffeured cars and bodyguards would probably be indispensable.

This was not that he was deliberately showing off, but Anna's idea.

After telling her about what happened on the first day of the meeting, she was also quite annoyed, and then, with a raised eyebrow, she came up with a "revenge plan," which was to use magic creations to reshape the other party's worldview. The result was even better than Roland expected. After that, everyone not only respected the book very much, but also was very responsive to his requests, only hoping to be assigned a Festival Cube for testing. The time the meeting adjourned was also later every day.

With a tangible object that can be seen and touched, it is not difficult for a team with modern technical support to design a feasible basic plan.

The first-generation three-cylinder magic cube machine was thus eliminated.

Replaced by a more rationally designed, higher-pressure magic cube machine with higher cylinder pressure, not only has the theoretical output power increased by more than doubled, but the volume and tremor have also decreased by nearly 30%. It will be installed on replicated heavy-duty trucks and tractors for actual testing. Within a week at most, the final project plan can be determined.

In addition to the improvement of the magic cube engine, the project team also provided drawings of a small truck—this truck has only twenty or thirty horsepower and is driven by an inline diesel engine. The fuel is a byproduct of the aviation fuel refining process. The total load is between one and two tons. The structure is extremely simple, and there is no cab. It looks like a four-wheeled square-headed tractor at first glance.

Roland quickly realized the role of this small truck. In terms of production difficulty alone, it is much easier than steam trucks, and a large number of them can be manufactured in a short time. It would be a waste to use the former for short-distance transportation, while the latter is just right. Its own efficiency is much higher than that of mules and horses. It is undoubtedly the most suitable to use them in a high-low combination.

And the last part of the one-year plan is the core of the core.

It consists of two sub-items—one is to improve the existing Skyfire, further expanding its advantage over flying terror beasts, and develop multiple sub-models based on this to adapt to different combat needs.

The second is to develop a new type of long-range bomber.
