I became a witch, but I started the industrial revolution

"What's the use of his gun barrel? Who can he hit? Let me get close to you and I'll tear it into pieces in a minute or I'll take your surname."

Eunice sat upright in her chair, listening to her teammates' discussions expressionlessly, totally lacking her previous lively temperament.

She didn't care about the big steel ship, because large ships of this size were not uncommon in the parish fleet. The ship they came here on was just an ocean transport ship, so there was no need to compete with it.

Compared to this, she was more interested in the soldiers on the ships.

It would have been fine if most of them were ordinary people, but the large and small iron rods in their hands actually made her feel a sense of vague danger, which was why she chose to retreat that day.

She has a natural trust in her intuition, which is her greatest reliance on successfully surviving on the battlefield many times.

So she really wanted to know some information about those iron pipes, the more detailed the better.

Without making them wait too long, the city lord hurried to the reception room to entertain them. After some compliments, he led the group towards the church in Bonwich.

By coincidence, Pope Olgovich and the Saint were touring and inspecting the church here, spreading blessings to the people.

As for why he ran from the headquarters of the Ovinia capital to the port city, it is unknown.

After a brief greeting, Eunice and the others brought the machine down from the ship and cooperated with the Pope to parade it around the street twice, accepting the worship of believers and letting the people feel the power of the Holy See.

Then they returned to the church and parked. The magic cores in their bodies replenished magic energy very slowly in the subcontinent, so they did not dare to waste too much.

After the dinner was over in the evening and everyone went to rest, Unica knocked on the door of the Pope's residence, and Olgovich and the Saint had been waiting there for a long time.

After the door closed, Eunice took out the badge given to her by the cardinal, and the Pope and the saint half-knelt on the ground.

Unica had a cold expression on her face, and had no intention of making him argue. She asked directly, "What's going on? The church needs you to give a reasonable explanation, Olgovich."

In fact, Unica's status in the Diocese of Demetria is just a middle-level one, but in the subcontinent she is still on the same level as the Pope, because the subcontinental church is just a branch.

The subcontinent was once a wild land. Only after being defeated on the main continent would the expelled tribes migrate here in the storm, such as dwarves, elves, orcs, and some human criminals.

To put it bluntly, the subcontinent is a place of exile for losers of all races. However, after a long period of development, they have redeveloped from the wilderness.

The Goddess of Light took the route of pan-believers, and the developing population in the subcontinent naturally attracted the attention of the church. They sent missionary teams to the subcontinent to spread their faith.

And taking advantage of the information gap, the Goddess of Light was changed to the Goddess of Magic, and the subcontinent was completely regarded as the private territory of the Holy See.

But now a major change has occurred in this private plot

They don’t actually care whether individual countries believe in the church or not. They have enough confidence in their mass base among the people.

But the fall of the Holy Spirit was a loss they could not accept, because it could not be cultivated or replicated, and it all depended on luck, like finding a needle in a haystack.

Chapter 77 Generator Manufacturing

The Pope complained bitterly to Eunice and explained the whole cause and effect to her in detail.

Unica had a # on her forehead after hearing this: "Are you a pig?"

"In winter, each parish is responsible for its own logistics. Who the hell taught you that?"

Pope: "...the soil of the subcontinent is soft and the rainfall is plentiful, making it more difficult to march in any season except winter."

The Pope has his own considerations, and he did not launch the attack in a rash manner.

After winter, the eroded road system makes it more difficult to transport supplies, and the hot and humid environment will also cause food to rot and become damp. In comparison, winter marching has more advantages than disadvantages.

Unfortunately, he could not precisely control the huge mobilization and could only disperse the authority. When the bishops below carried out his orders, they mixed in too many things that should not have been there...

Of course, the main reason is that he has never fought before. If he wins, everything will be fine.

After Eunice calmed down after getting angry, she no longer argued with him about past responsibilities. The most urgent task was to confirm how the Holy Spirit had fallen and whether it could be redeemed. If it could not be redeemed, then he would naturally resign on the spot and return to the mainland headquarters to be punished.

The Pope himself did not know how he fell, because Hendak fell too quickly and was blocked. It was only through the oracle of the Goddess that he learned that the Holy See had suffered such a heavy loss in Hendak.

And to save...Now the original site of Hendak has become the capital of Seris, can Yunica still rush to other capitals and kill people? It's not impossible.

However, when Yunica found out that Queen Seris was a witch cub, she immediately gave up the idea.

Unlike the natives of the subcontinent who were isolated from the news, she knew how annoying the witches were. They relied on their talents to go crazy and cause destruction at will.

The saints and sons sent by the Holy See could not defeat them.

After all, in principle, the Holy Spirit is an extremely gifted representative of elements, and the witch is a mutated product caused by the qualitative change caused by the change in the affinity and measure of the Holy Spirit, and is naturally higher in status than the Holy Spirit.

Even if they win, they can still ask the adults to come back for revenge. They hold grudges and protect their shortcomings. They have no sphere of influence and prefer to act alone. There is no benefit for winning, and there is nothing for the loser. No matter how they fight, they will lose. They can be said to be the most malignant race in the main continent.

So if possible, she would rather sneak in, capture someone and leave, and try not to have too much contact with the other party.

Medea, who was being ridiculed and remembered, did not sense the malice. At this time, Astar led the first round of heavy rains in spring.

Medea had his men erect tall wooden stakes in the open space early in the morning.

The upper part of the wooden stakes is a cast iron block wrapped in a porcelain shell and spirally wrapped with copper wire made of tree varnish and copper wire.

As she closed her eyes and used her mental power to guide the lightning in the clouds, she shouted, "Thunder God, help me!"

Intense lightning was guided out from deep in the clouds and struck the wooden stake.

The current is injected from the upper end of the copper wire protruding from the upper half, passes quickly along the wound copper coil, and finally sinks into the ground along the grounded copper wire.

Rounds of lightning crackled and struck the wooden stakes madly, melting the copper wires and porcelain pieces, and the cast iron blocks inside fell to the ground.

However, at this time they are no longer cast iron blocks, but pieces of strong magnetized magnets, and the purpose of making them is to make the initial generator.

With strong magnets and coils, we can use the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction to make generators. With generators, wired telephones and telegraphs can be put on the agenda.

However, if used as a mother machine, Midia does not plan to use copper for the coil, as the reserves of copper are not high and the required high-purity copper is not easy to purify.

She was planning to use gold wire as the coil, and after it became popular, the coil was changed to silver, and finally to copper depending on the situation.

In fact, she could have built the chemical generator a long time ago, but she had never thought too much about it. Before, the territory was small and there were magicians, so there was no need to promote the telegraph. It was not until now that the territory has become larger that the importance of long-distance communication began to be highlighted.

Now that the chemical industry has advanced to the point where lead dioxide can be produced, she can begin preparations for the initial electrification process.

Pure lead plate plus lead dioxide plate, placed in a 1-3 ratio of sulfuric acid aqueous solution is the most basic electrolyte battery structure.

The basis of the battery is to use two different metals to produce a chemical reaction to convert chemical energy into electrical energy. However, the biggest function of chemical batteries is to excite the rotor of the AC generator.

After the whole is started, it starts to self-excite, and basically no chemical battery is needed. Then, by controlling the speed, rolling number and self-excitation, the desired voltage can be output.

Only then did electrification become truly useful. The wires were simple and did not require copper. Thicker iron wires could achieve similar effects.

However, if we want to bring electricity to thousands of households, the current power of the generator sets is not enough to achieve this, and the cost of parallel connection is too high and not cost-effective.

At present, the focus of electrical manufacturing is still on wired telephones and telegraphs, allowing Media to build a basic communication platform across the country and alleviate the demand for magicians in various places.

At the same time, with the wired telephone powered by portable batteries, combined with radio and grassroots command posts, Seris will be able to mobilize troops more flexibly and quickly.

However, in order to keep up with the pace of equipment updates, Seris's military department must also undergo a new reorganization. For this purpose, a separate office space will be built for the military in the federal capital.

Almost in the next second after this idea came up, she had already thought of the specific architectural layout, which was a large pentagonal building~

As the name suggests, the Pentagon is a regular pentagonal office building.

It is divided into the Army Office Area, the Navy Office Area, and the reserved Air Force Office Area. The inner circle of the pentagon is an interconnected area, collectively known as the joint office area, which is also the highest federal military command.

The very center is the reserved area for air defense weapons.

The military system will also be reorganized, from low to high: [Squad: 10 people, squad leader and two NCOs, three-man machine gun crew, five infantrymen, equipped with two Cat-type all-terrain vehicles.]

[Infantry platoon 50 people: Components: 6-man platoon headquarters, 4* infantry squads, mortar group, 2 baggage heavy trucks. ]

[Infantry company 201 people: 11 company headquarters, 3* infantry platoons, recoilless gun crew, logistics personnel. ]

[Infantry battalion 860 people: 32-man battalion headquarters (including command squad, communications team, engineering squad), 3* infantry companies, 1* heavy mortar fire support company, combat team. ]

【步兵团3100人：50人团部、3*步兵营、野战炮兵连1、无后坐力炮连1、侦查排、工兵排、通讯排。】

[Infantry division 17200 people: 160 people in the division headquarters (including command squad, guard company, mapping platoon), 3* infantry regiment, artillery regiment, division-affiliated troops, recoilless gun battalion, communications battalion, reconnaissance engineer battalion, supply medical troops, and replenishment battalion.]

Chapter 78 National Infrastructure Wave

At the same time, Medea also reorganized the conscription system.

The first step was to establish the "Media Youth Corps" to provide military training to young people, and to stipulate that most young people must participate in training for more than one year before entering society and taking up employment.

It is a purely military management system that emphasizes physical training and uses obsolete old rifles to train new recruits. With this kind of experience, young people will be able to quickly adapt even if they are suddenly conscripted into the army in the future.

Middle-aged men and women also have to undergo a second military training and can only be granted formal jobs after passing the assessment.

Relying on these two organizations, the Seres people can be said to have completed the basic training for recruits before they officially join the army, allowing the military to provide more intensive military training to the recruits in a short period of time after they join the army.

At the same time, the compulsory conscription system was implemented, and adult men aged 18 and above were required to undergo conscription physical examinations and join the military for military service in the autumn of that year.

After completing the two-year service and being discharged from the army, you will be included in the reserve force. There will be no forcible call-up a second time without special circumstances, and you can actively apply to stay in the team.

Of course there will also be voluntary service, and those who volunteer for military service will enjoy higher priority in promotion.

In order to ensure the smooth implementation of this system, Media will also divide the country's fourteen states into 14 defense zones, with the military headquarters of each defense zone being responsible for conscription matters in its own area.

Each defense zone will also have a dedicated training recruiter who is specifically responsible for the recruitment training phase.

They receive military training before reaching adulthood, serve in the military after reaching adulthood, and become reserve forces after retirement, with the defense zone being specifically responsible for them.

Once this system is implemented, it means that all citizens of the Seris Federation over the age of 15 will be potential soldiers who have completed basic military training.

Once the country reaches the dangerous moment when it has to issue a mobilization order, Seris's mobilization and organizational capabilities will become extremely terrifying.

Since they all have a training foundation, the speed of secondary training to become qualified soldiers will be greatly shortened, and the quality of the soldiers can completely surpass that of neighboring countries.

Although this system is very strict, Media has no choice. Once industrialization begins, it cannot be stopped. The surrounding countries will sooner or later enter an economic crisis of overcapacity. This is inevitable.

Media always maintained its industrial generation gap and foresight advantages to suppress the merchant nobles of the surrounding kingdoms.

By selling finished products at high prices and purchasing raw materials and basic resources at low prices, they plundered the wealth of other kingdoms on a large scale.

In the short term, because the internal market is still in the development stage, they may not notice any problems, but over time, their living space will be squeezed by the Seris Chamber of Commerce and they will definitely not be able to survive.

There will only be two options left at that time: either close the trade route to Seris, or exploit it even more ruthlessly.

However, Seris's companies continue to export various industrial products, build factories and invest in territorial commerce in the country, and the closure of trade routes may not be agreed upon within the kingdom.

If the country wants to maintain order at home, it will inevitably have to vent pressure externally and suppress domestic conflicts through plunder or cost transfer.

However, her Seris Federation system is incompatible with the surrounding kingdoms, and she will most likely be the one to be beaten. If she doesn't prepare for war now, is she going to wait until she is about to die?

In addition to the fundamental optimization of the source of soldiers and the reform of the military, a large amount of infrastructure is also being built rapidly, such as cement roads within towns, asphalt main roads connecting the entire state, and more state-level railway tracks.

The construction of infrastructure requires huge amounts of money and a massive amount of labor. The national finances of Seris cannot support the rapid development of more than a dozen states at the same time.

So Medea made a special trip to hold a joint meeting with the governors.
