I became a witch, but I started the industrial revolution

On the other hand, the suppression of uprisings and riots in various places still requires the families behind them to put out fires everywhere. Even if there are any problems, they will not be resolved until the domestic situation stabilizes.

[Cabancia Sea. Alves]

The General Staff identified the Allied landing force's base as Pleida and searched for troops that could directly attack Pleida. Finally, they assigned this task to the fleet led by Lapland.

With the completion of the sea trial of the first aircraft carrier, the two regular aircraft carriers that were subsequently improved on the basis of the first ship were also assigned to Lapland to form the alliance's first maritime aircraft carrier strike formation.

Before, they had been cruising on the sea waiting for the Allied Navy, which was somewhere unknown. As a result, that group of people couldn't even break through the blockade of the submarine team, let alone it was their turn to take action.

Fortunately, there is finally an opportunity now. The Allied Forces' base camp, Pleda, is located behind the capital of Cabancia. The tide of zombies has tied the hands and feet of the defenders of the Alliance's defense line, making it impossible for the air and land forces to launch a large-scale air force against Pleda.

The fleet at sea does not have so many difficulties.

'Bang, bang.'

"George, the situation has changed. We have upgraded to Level 1 alert. We must set off immediately!"

George, who was sitting on the bed reading a book, heard the sound coming from outside the door and quickly responded, dropped the book and put on his flight suit.

When he opened the door, he saw the pilot, Huggins, waiting for him in a flight suit and holding a flight helmet.

Harkins nodded and said, "We'll talk as we go. The orders from above tell me that we have something special to do today."

George straightened his clothes and complained, "Oh Queen, I finally have something to do. I don't want to fry the damn fish for practice anymore."

"Me too, so today is a lucky day for both of us. We are going to carry out an attack mission, flying over Alvis to reach Pleda for precision bombing."

"And the air command will assign us confirmed targets at that time, so you have to be prepared. We are going to kill people." Huggins patted him on the shoulder.

The two men talked as they walked, passing through one cabin after another and finally reaching the upper deck via the stairs. There, two mechanics were making final inspection preparations around a two-seat dive bomber with its folded wings lowered.

The sea level was not calm at this time. The waves were rolling on the water and the sky was covered with dark clouds and rain. However, the huge ship of the aircraft carrier was like a towering island, and the power of nature did not show its due power on it.

Fighter planes flew over the surrounding sky from time to time and formed a formation in the air. George turned his head and looked into the distance. The other two aircraft carriers were also launching fighter planes in an orderly manner. He couldn't help but exclaimed:

"Huggins, I believe what you said now. There will indeed be a river of blood today."

"Haha, okay, let's go!"

George and the mechanic bumped fists and climbed up the side ladder first to enter the weapon operating cabin. Huggins also put on his flight helmet and followed him up the ladder to enter the cockpit. The hatch began to close as George controlled it.

Huggins: "Check the air brake flap drive."

George turned sideways and looked down at the tail of the wing. Seeing that it could be opened and closed normally, he replied: "The flap transmission is normal. Check the weapon system... The weapon system is normal."

Harkins: "The data is normal, there is no fault signal light, everything is running well and can perform the mission."

Tower: [3-6 Black Widow, you are in second place, the airspace ahead is cleared, please prepare for takeoff.]

George gave the deck crew a thumbs-up to show they were ready, and they waved back.

[Preparing for ejection acceleration...]

Huggins: "Ejection and pressurization in progress, go!"

Chapter 314 The Origin of the Universe: Boiling Water

Huggins pushed the engine output to the maximum. As the power increased, the engine roared, the speed of the propeller in front of the nose soared, and the mechanical oil pressure intervened to automatically deflect the pitch angle of the blades.

George: “Wuhu!!!”

The catapult with brakes at the bottom suddenly released the brakes and towed the fighter plane forward at a high speed. The lift rate was reached in a short time to complete the ejection. Huggins only felt the nose of the plane sink slightly and took over the fighter plane again and began to climb towards the airspace ahead.

Huggins: "Ejection successful, engines OK. Terminal speed good, wheels up."

【黑寡妇3-6，航向回转2-9-0空域，收到请回答】

"Black Widow 3-6 received."

[Black Widow 3-6, here is 3-4 Black Widow, flying horizontally to your right. ]

"Black Widow 3-6 received. Looks like we still have to wait for the rest of our team."

While waiting for the fighter plane to complete the turn, Huggins looked down at the mother ship on the sea level and saw three more dive bombers preparing to launch and take off.

More deck ground crew members at the rear were working in groups of two pushing the bombers' rear flaps to line up behind the catapults, continuously launching the fighter planes into the air at an efficiency of about one round every 30 seconds.

As the fighter jets took off one after another and completed the adjustment of the 6-aircraft 1 formation, they began to climb towards the clouds and adjust their airspace altitude.

When they passed through the clouds, dense dive bombers appeared in front of them in the airspace ahead. More than 300 fighters and dive bombers formed three attack waves and rushed towards Praida.

Before manufacturing aircraft carrier catapults, the Allied Navy went down the wrong path of steam catapults for a while.

Faster initial velocity, shorter runway requirements, and higher launch efficiency; the catapult take-off mode has undoubtedly been the development path for aircraft carriers since it was conceived.

But the problem was what force to use as the catapult power, such as gravity, hydraulics, and finally the boiler high-temperature steam catapult was chosen. This was decided by Medea, because it was proven to be a feasible route in the previous life.

Although it takes a while to replenish each time the high-temperature steam pressure is released, the efficiency is low.

Moreover, the force is not exerted smoothly. The force when the head pulls the fighter is extremely great, and it will decay sharply at the end, which places very high demands on the strength of the landing gear and fuselage.

But at least before the development of electromagnetic technology, she couldn't think of any better way.

However, the requirements she set caused heated discussions and disputes within the Warship Manufacturing Design Institute and the Aircraft Design Bureau.

Because after she set the specific technical route, in addition to the completed steam catapult plan in the newly formed joint sea and air research department, there was a new plan that no one paid attention to and was also in the final stage of technical verification process, which is the magic test route.

Medea joked that everything in the original world can be used to boil water, and steam is the origin of the universe. These jokes indirectly confirm the important position of steam in social development, and also make her want to boil water when she is in doubt.

The magic element is a great existence in this world similar to steam, but it has gone astray in the technology tree in application development.

After all, Medea is not a native of the magical world. Her feelings for magic are not as deep as theirs, nor does she have their special complex of in-depth understanding and research. Everything remains on the surface.

I know how to use good things when I see them, but that’s all.

But there are always people who do research. Magic elements are very active and explosive when casting spells in battle, but they can maintain stability when bound, and the energy release is very smooth.

For example, in its application on catapults, compared with the need to spend a lot of brain cells to design a complete set of complex structures such as steam pipes, valves, transmission shafts, pistons, etc. for steam catapults, the later electromagnetic catapults are not much better.

The magic catapult only needs to install a large energy supply device at the bottom. When braking, the magic supply can be gradually increased according to the different moving positions of the module, thus completing the linear boost process from slow to fast.

This not only reduces the structural pressure required for aircraft ejection, but also minimizes the fatigue loss of the device itself. It can be said that the side effects are reduced to the extreme, and it is very simple to replace if damaged.

Moreover, the frequency of repeated use is very high. As long as the magic power supply is cut off, the reset self-test process can be completed in a very short time.

However, the advanced technology conflicted with the standards set by Medea, or in other words, it conflicted with the traditional technical standards represented by the scientists trained under Medea's original technological replication.

Now it's just a catapult, what about in the future? As the technology is verified, the attention and investment in the magic field will increase, and the proportion of funds they can get will decrease.

So, it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s usable. Technically, there’s no problem. Let’s talk about the political impact of your technical route.

In the past, during the federal period of the alliance, the magicians under the federal rule had actually begun to show signs of rising.

However, at that time, it had only been a few years since the Federation sent magicians and nobles to be used as fertilizer equally, and the great industrial revolution also made people feel that the Federation's technology was not much worse than magic.

Ordinary people have a crazy worship for mechanical science because they feel that this is the only field where they can equalize or even surpass the gap in bloodline.

In addition, the people generally have a resistance to magic and the nobility, so the development and practice of magic are extremely low-key.

Ordinary people have a chance to release the hatred and resentment that they have suppressed for thousands of years. Even Medea doesn't want to touch this bad luck, and discriminating against you is considered restraint.

Not being completely purged, and stereotyping magic as sorcery and evil power in the subcontinent, and tying it to the stake, is the result of her efforts~

It was not until the establishment of the Alliance that a large amount of magic information was compiled and bound into books and made available to the public. After the threshold for magic to enter every household was greatly lowered, ordinary people gradually began to accept the existence of magic again.

However, the low-key habits developed over the years have taken shape, and most of the magicians in the alliance do not study the combat system common on the mainland, but tend to focus on auxiliary, research and other fields.

We tend to explore new directions that organically combine magic and industry, but this field is still blank and we can only build the foundation from scratch.

This is also the fundamental reason why there are actually quite a few magicians within the Alliance, but they are rarely seen on the battlefield. Basically, they have transformed into academic talents.

This behavior pattern, coupled with the subcontinent's vague resistance to magic, also meant that magic had almost no say within the alliance.

Fortunately, Medea soon discovered the R&D team that was arguing with their superiors, and stopped the steam catapult actual test project and replaced it with magic catapult test.

Stern warnings were given to the cliques that were gradually forming within the department, and the problem was only barely solved after the entire Magic Science Research Department was split up into a separate comprehensive department.

After that, she never gave any specific requirements to the technical research project. She would only ask what was needed. As for how to do it, she would not ask any more questions and only looked at the finished product.

However, Medea also recognized the potential of magic. In addition to the catapults used on aircraft carriers, many other research projects were also being rapidly launched, with electrification and magic being promoted together.

The first generation of diodes powered by the Inscription Magic Road have basically met the design requirements, and transistors are also on the way.

However, magic still has a hidden danger. Once it encounters a specialized magic suppression device, it is no less than being hit by an EMP in the information age. The cost of a magic suppression device is much simpler than locally manufacturing an EMP.

Because you understand magic, and your opponents understand it better, the advancement of electrification cannot be stopped.

Chapter 315 The Reincarnation of Heaven

After a long, high-altitude flight, the first fleet of aircraft arrived in Pleida and was immediately spotted by the Allied defense forces. Their reaction speed was so fast that even Medea was amazed.

If there is any technology where the Allies are ahead of the Alliance, it must be technology related to high-altitude observation and air defense.

There is no way, long illness makes good doctors.

After so many years of bombing, even a pig would think carefully about how to prevent it.

In addition to borrowing various new weapon design ideas from the Alliance, the Allies have not given up their own efforts in the field of magic and have developed a number of weapons and equipment that can meet similar requirements.

For example, if the range is extremely long, it can condense and compress magic light spears with extremely strong penetrating power. An air defense machine can generate dozens of them at a time for covering fire.

The Allies even developed a mobile vehicle-mounted version of this thing, which could be laid flat to attack the Allied tanks that were charging forward without making a single sound.

High-density kinetic penetrating attacks are very effective against the semi-circular protective shields of early models such as the Sherman. A large protective area means a wide attack surface. In the past, this allowed the infantry and light armored units behind to withstand attacks, but this is no longer possible.

If you take a salvo of fire with your face, you can easily blow apart Sherman's semicircular protective shield.

However, such equipment is usually huge in size due to its bloated design, and is often eliminated by dive bombers and helicopters sent by the army before it can launch a few attacks.

In addition, there are detection equipment that can detect magic fluctuations at altitudes hundreds of kilometers away, heavy artillery with magic charges and magic catapults, and many other strange and bizarre weapons.

During the years of fighting with the Alliance, they used almost all the magical knowledge that could be used and possibly used in the creation of weapons and equipment, and produced many doomsday weapons.

Even the flying fortress, which is known as a sitting duck, has an improved version of the city in the sky. Its huge size is equipped with several magic towers and various artillery pieces as defense and output firepower points.

In the middle there is a super magic cannon with a barrel diameter measured in meters. One shot is enough to destroy a city or a permanent line of defense.

Its power is no less than a full-strength attack from a demigod, but the charging time is measured in hours. Even in a place with rich magic elements and a large amount of magic crystals, it will take about two days to replenish the energy after one shot.

Then, when it flew out of the base for the first time, it was surrounded and killed by thousands of land-based heavy fighter jets halfway through the journey, and was eliminated as soon as it appeared.

After Hawkins and his companions flew over the vicinity of Pleida, they encountered fierce anti-aircraft artillery attacks. From time to time, several spears shining with magical light flashed past his eyes. From time to time, fighter planes crashed into the attack and fell, or simply disintegrated in mid-air.

In order to minimize the probability of the shield being forced to take an attack that would otherwise miss, almost all Alliance fighters use a shield design that fits closely to the fuselage.
