I became a witch, but I started the industrial revolution

The girl with a black cloth covering her eyes listened quietly with a gentle smile on her face. In fact, she can now see the world through other means, but her mother has obviously become accustomed to the previous way of getting along.

Although her mother always said that she would be able to live alone and go to school by herself, when she was a child, their home was 386 meters away from the school and there were 96 steps. It took her 15 minutes to walk this distance.

But she could smell her mother's scent on every meter and every step, and she could always run into her mother when she crossed the road, when she walked through the crowd, or when she accidentally got lost.

On the road I have walked from childhood to adulthood, there are not only traces of the guide stick, but also traces of my mother's footprints.

"The factory distributed another bag of rice yesterday. We can't finish it. Can I take some to Mrs. Liddy later?"

"Good mother."

As the crises on various fronts were resolved one after another, the Seris Alliance no longer needed to mobilize the whole country to deal with this war. The wartime supply system was lifted and the people returned to their previous normal life.

And because of the aftermath of excessive production efficiency, Seris currently has an extremely abundant supply of materials and commodity prices have dropped significantly, ushering in a golden period of consumption.

Especially in the field of heavy industrial manufacturing, a large number of factories have been transformed, and the prices of medium and large agricultural machinery and family cars have continued to fall. Coupled with the gradual opening of highways, the number of family cars has begun to rise rapidly.

In addition, the main continent has basically become a mess. A large number of elite talents from other countries have been absorbed, and the nobles and wealthy people have also moved to the safe alliance area. The Seris Alliance has gradually replaced the main continent as the new world center.

In the crowded and noisy square, the radio that had been playing music suddenly stopped playing, and a sweet female host's voice appeared:

"Now for a special announcement..."

"Since the founding of the Seris Federation, under the leadership of Her Majesty the Queen, we have fought desperately, worked hard, and achieved one historic breakthrough after another."

"We drove away the old nobles and the landowners who used to ride on our heads. The people of the subcontinent united together to form our common homeland, the [Seris National Union]."

“We have won the struggle, but there are still more ordinary people living in darkness. We used to be them, but now we are higher than them, so we have to speak for millions of them!”

Everyone listened attentively and cheered. The Alliance had been telling them clearly that each of them was doing a great thing. Just as they had been saved before, they were now saving others.

"We don't want, and we will never allow, anyone to ride on the people's heads again. For this reason, our fighters have thrown themselves into purgatory with the passion to liberate the people of the world. So far, about 550 million people's fighters of the Three Liberation Alliance are buried in various corners of the world."

"According to military experts, although we have gained an absolute advantage on the front lines, we are expected to suffer at least 140 million to 300 million casualties by the end of the war."

Everyone fell silent upon hearing this. Although the alliance did not suffer serious casualties, as exchanges between the three countries became more frequent, they had also heard about the huge losses of Ernesto and Suria.

It’s just that they couldn’t imagine that the other two countries had already fought to this point.

"So, according to the instructions of the Three-Nation Joint Declaration [Sera Announcement], we dropped a super bomb codenamed [Miss Qiu] on Grax, the capital of the Brittian Empire, at 9:12:22 today."

"Ms. Qiu's weapon is a nuclear weapon. The energy released when a nuclear weapon explodes is much greater than that of a conventional weapon that only contains chemical explosives. The energy released by the complete fission of 1 kilogram of uranium is about 1 million times greater than the energy released by the explosion of 2000 kilogram of TNT."

"The 'Miss Qiu' nuclear bomb dropped on Grax has a TNT equivalent of about 4.5 tons. No one survived within a four-kilometer radius of the explosion, and the maximum damage radius outside was about 25 kilometers. Preliminary estimates show that about 18 people died on the spot in Grax during the explosion, about 9 people will die within a day due to various effects of the explosion, and 40 people will suffer irreversible damage..."

Everyone in the square fell silent, and then burst into an uproar, with everyone whispering to each other to confirm whether they had heard correctly.

What? A bomb can cause 600,000 casualties?!

How can there be anyone who can only fire a hundred or eighty rounds?

How can this be...

When the nuclear bomb explosion scene recorded by the outer super fortress was played on the big screen in the square, the huge fireball like the sun and the mushroom cloud rising into the sky formed the most intuitive contrast with the black dot-sized buildings below it.

The host's voice choked:

"[Miss Qiu] is the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people. It represents the blood, tears and anger accumulated by the working people from thousands of years of slavery! It represents that the world has opened a new chapter since it started! The people are in charge!"

"The war is about to end completely, and no one will be sacrificed anymore."

Looking at the blooming flower of destruction in the image, faint sobs were heard from the crowd.

"Don't ask for my opinion. My opinion is to destroy whoever is not convinced. Issue an ultimatum to the Mantogor Empire. If they don't accept unconditional surrender, take a closer look at their capital, Sigloi. From now on, you can only find it from memory."

Mitia picked up the teacup and took a sip. "This is a rare opportunity to rebuild the confidence of the people. They have cultural confidence, institutional confidence, and national confidence. They are the best and the strongest, and their ideas are right. They must be mentally prepared to become world pioneers."

Anna continued to report the situation: "The Wallis Empire is in great chaos right now, but the peace faction has gained the upper hand and has taken the lead in contacting us. The envoys of the United Kingdom of Shoro and the Kingdom of Freeni will formally submit their surrender letters to us soon."

"The Britian Empire... According to the news sent back by spies, the new emperor Ardashir seems to have suffered considerable damage in the nuclear explosion and is currently receiving treatment from the church in the secondary capital."

Mitia looked up in confusion: "Hmm? I remember Miss Qiu deliberately avoided the palace when she launched it?"

Chapter 335 IQ Reclaims the High Ground

Dropping a nuclear bomb is ultimately a means of forced landing. No matter what, encountering this while in office will cause a serious blow to the credibility of the person in power, which is more painful than killing him.

On the contrary, if he was killed in the explosion, it might cause some trouble to the alliance. After all, no one knows whether the Emperor Slayer will activate some buff like Sunset Glow, which is really not worth it.

Anna thought for a moment and guessed hesitantly, "It seems like... he was angry?"

"..."

The Mantogle Empire still couldn't hold on, and announced unconditional surrender when the Allied forces were at the gates of the city. The defense forces laid down their weapons and waited for the Allied forces to take over and disarm them.

There was no way. A small-yield nuclear bomb was detonated over the satellite city of Sigloi. This time the equivalent was not large, with a total power of about 5000 tons of TNT equivalent, but it also caused tens of thousands of casualties. It also proved that the Alliance did have the ability to mass-produce such weapons.

This is actually the last nuclear weapon in the alliance's arsenal. After all, this route has proven its feasibility, and there will be more powerful ones in the future, so there is no need to waste too many resources on current nuclear weapons.

But this is enough. You can say that orcs are simple-minded, but it has nothing to do with being brainless. They can accept the idea that the strong are respected better than humans.

They didn't dare and didn't want to bet whether the Alliance had a third weapon of that kind in stock. After all, they had been fighting for so long and they knew a little bit about the Alliance's nature.

Just like the main battlefield of the Tiger tank is basically in the Mantogor Orc war zone. Sherman and Little Mantou can't defeat large creatures of the level of Behemoth, Troll and Cyclops, but the Tiger is just right.

From a dozen tanks at the beginning to dozens or hundreds later, from one-on-one to a Golden Behemoth being surrounded and beaten by a team of Tiger tanks.

Once something appears on the battlefield, it will be everywhere the next time it appears, just like cabbages on the street. They really can't withstand this exponential fission method of mass production.

Even if they are unwilling and the internal opposition is loud, it is of no use. There will always be some people who are inclined to surrender.

However, the diehards among the long-lived races, such as the Treemen with a bunch of twigs in their heads, are still clamoring for a fight to the death with the Alliance.

Although they were not lucky enough to be hit by a nuclear bomb, they had enough napalm bombs. After two rounds of air strikes burned down 40% of the forests in their tribal territory, the moisture in their brains was dried out, and their IQ regained its high ground.

The Brittian Empire was not having a good time either. At the suggestion of the alliance, the Western Liberation Alliance, which had been hiding in the west, began to become active. It expelled two regional ministers sent by the empire to the west, and in fact declared complete independence.

And soon, Just Like the World issued its own Declaration of Independence, announcing the upcoming establishment of a country, and received the initial support of the Alliance countries led by the Alliance officials.

In comparison, the Wallis Empire to which the Dragon Clan belongs is actually the most troublesome, because the other side's strength loss is actually not that great.

Even after the disassembly, since they all belong to the same dragon family, the difference from the original is not that big.

Media's countermeasure to this is to place the other party at the bottom of the future industry classification system, that is, the economic plundering zone where goods are dumped.

The Alliance needs an excuse to jump up and then crush it again, and then it will be easier to deal with later.

During this period, Medea also met with a group of people. Once the discussion was completed, her plan could be implemented.

"Oh, my dear girl...I like the way you look now. You look almost exactly like my granddaughter when she was young."

The white-haired old lady hugged Medea and rubbed and kneaded her, the kindness on her face could not be hidden at all, or it could be said that she had no intention of concealing it at all.

The old lady's surname was Ovinia, the former royal princess of Ovinia and Medea's great-aunt. They had met secretly before and had a brief greeting.

However, by then, Ovinia had completely disappeared, and their relationship could not be made public. Although Princess Ovinia did not mind, outsiders might use her identity to make trouble.

Later, with the intentional or unintentional help of Medea, New Astar successfully unified the peninsula and established a unified regime, the Kotna Federation. The name has no meaning, it is just that the former capital became the name of the country.

The reason why my aunt-in-law came all the way to Surya this time was naturally for the subsequent partition. Oh no, I don’t know what it’s called, but it’s to prepare for the international peace conference.

The surrender of the Mantogle Empire means the disappearance of the strongest opponent blocking the Allied Army's front line. The entire Allied Frontier collapsed, and other countries had no choice but to surrender even if they were unwilling.

They no longer had the time and barriers to continue organizing and mobilizing the people, and the alliance's nuclear bombs had also made them lose the confidence to continue organizing and mobilizing.

After all, a nuclear bomb may not be able to destroy their entire country, but it can easily destroy a city, an army, and behead a command center.

Once your army is pulled out, it will be more than enough to eliminate it on the physical level. At the same time, the logistics transit cities will also become important targets of attack. Then the mobilization itself will be meaningless. Using nuclear weapons as a deterrent guarantee for absolute peace is by no means just talk.

In fact, the division of the post-war world is an extremely troublesome and time-consuming matter. The signing of an unconditional surrender by the Allies does not mean that they will fully cooperate with all your work. During the inventory investigation, all parties are intentionally or unintentionally creating obstacles.

You cannot investigate this kind of thing, because after the defeat and surrender, the entire ruling system has completely lost its original function and is now in chaos.

But it didn't matter. Medea didn't expect these nobles to be able to peacefully transfer power. What she had to do was to actually deconstruct their power to mobilize the state as an organ of violence. The rest would naturally be done by other classes.

The Alliance gave the task of dismantling the Allies to Ernesto.

And Medea~

After Ernesto and the business owners mobilized the lower classes of the Allied countries to hold a referendum for independence, it was her turn to meet with capital business owners from various countries to determine the division of labor in future economic cooperation.

The Alliance's future plan to assist the main continent in its continental revitalization also requires such talents to assist the continent and take root in the continent to enrich its ideological foundation.

Mainland Revitalization Plan

After dismantling the various kingdoms and empires and achieving de facto national self-determination and independence, the Alliance will be deeply involved in the restoration and reconstruction of the countries on the main continent.

By issuing a large number of interest-free loans to the governments of various small countries, this money is transferred to the alliance for special purposes and transformed into industrial products, equipment and machine tools, commodity demand, etc., and then circulated out.

Chapter 336 Because We Have Been Here

In this way, the unleashed production capacity of the Alliance's previous wartime transformation factories has a place to vent, and by clamping down on the source of aid, the Alliance can directly influence the direction of the country's government to a large extent.

What Ernesto needs to do is to continuously supply various ideas in this extremely long aid and reconstruction plan.

The reason why the Alliance does not stand in the front is that it does not want to give the people of these new countries the impression that the Alliance's big government system is superior, otherwise there is no guarantee that other countries will follow suit.

Anyway, as long as the plan is successfully implemented, the elites from the main continent will basically have to come to the alliance for further training before returning. It will be enough for the alliance to hold this power.

However, Ernesto's model is highly applicable in this continental transformation. First of all, concentrating farmhouses and equalizing land and exempting taxes will directly have a certain impact on the old business owners on the mainland.

They wanted to share the post-war pie with the Alliance, but Medea didn't want that. She had no interest in letting others take advantage of her.

It's not about burning bridges, but how the cake is divided, who gets it, which group gets the lion's share, and who gets to eat it, these things must be decided by Medea.

There are also differences between business owners. There are those who expand in an unorderly manner, and naturally there are also those who pursue an orderly business.

When trade unions and farmers' associations flourish all over the mainland, the former lower-class people will have the capital and confidence to negotiate with the mainstream, and the business owners' dream of grabbing land will inevitably be shattered.

Ernesto's implementation of the average collective model will naturally cause a strong counterattack from some business owners, and this is an excellent opportunity to distinguish between friend and foe.

During this window of time, she would have the time to sort out the local resource information submitted by various countries, merge and redistribute the resources of the Astar family, and make targeted investments after the regional divisions are completed in each new country.

In fact, the giant enterprise model is also very simple, or the core is universal.

That is a unified market. A unified market means a complete production chain from exploration, production to sales, from food, clothing, housing and transportation to guns and cannons, and from raw materials to finished products.

Countries that possess this complete chain and occupy a dominant position are called "great powers", and giant enterprises that close the loop of this chain can also do so.

Whoever controls this material strip is a great power, not necessarily a country.

The alliance occupies a dominant distribution position in the global industrial chain. It is impossible for the alliance to take up all the share, because the chain consists of a complete process including raw material mining, processing and production, sales and trafficking. The alliance only needs to occupy the bulk of the profits in this link.

To put it bluntly, the Alliance, as the only top layer, maintains the super-standard armed system through the bulk of the profits, serving as the stabilizer of the system.
