Furnace Rising! Warship Steel!

While thinking about the prospects, I washed and cooked.

During this period, although Candlelight Shelter was hundreds of kilometers away, Chen Shen still very conscientiously asked Su Mo if everything was okay, and then made a video call to respectfully report the gains from yesterday to today, as well as the plan from today to tomorrow.

"Today I will start with two rounds of wheat, and when the planting is finished, I will plant vegetables and cotton."

"By the way, have you arranged the key points of growing vegetables and how to sow and harvest cotton?"

Hearing Su Mo's words, Chen Shen nodded, indicating that he had made arrangements.

The Three Stooges are better than Zhuge Liang.

A dozen college students gathered together, with a clear division of labor, and Candlelight Shelter, with hundreds of people, was managed in an orderly manner.

After explaining all the matters that Chen Shen needed to pay attention to, we discussed the minor matters of fuel connection, hung up the phone, and the delicious breakfast was already served.

After eating greasy Oil Splash Noodles for several days, I had some stir-fried Vinegar Cabbage, then some steamed white steamed buns with new noodles, and drank thick white porridge.

At a time when others are crying and grateful when eating steamed buns, Su Mo is undoubtedly at the forefront and living a petty bourgeoisie life.

The light and sweet white porridge, paired with the fragrant flavor of Psionic Cabbage, can soothe all the unhappiness in an instant.

Even Moore, which has a much stronger taste, praised the taste again and again.

After breakfast, I put away the pots and pans and cleaned up, and then loaded the Earth Tiger Car with the diesel produced yesterday and today.

One person and one bear came to the gate of the shelter.

"Moore, you have to come back early today after delivering the gas. We still need you to do the work here!"

He patted Moore on the shoulder, watched the big man nod obediently, and then got on the Dihu and thundered away.

Standing at the gate of Underground Shelter, Su Mo was like a kind old father, waving his arms behind and showing a happy smile.

My family has a bear who has just grown up! According to this progress, training Moore to become the first mate on a destroyer is just around the corner.

By then, as long as a complete automatic Assisted Driving system can be installed, one person and one bear can completely control the ship to fly across the sea and sail thousands of miles.

And since they are all on their own, there is no need to worry about being stabbed in the back if someone muties on the water at night.

"Okay, okay, don't be jealous!"

Seeing that Moore was getting heavier and heavier, as a veteran in the shelter, Oreo began to groan.

Looking at Erha like this, until the tiger disappeared at the end of the horizon, Su Mo laughed loudly, picked up Oreo, and walked back to the shelter.

Before Moore comes back, Black Soil's farming still has to be delayed a little.

Psionic Water was produced as needed. After the routine watering of the Source Energy Fruit Tree seedlings at the gate, Su Mo returned to the workbench and began to study the furnace, a good thing that he had obtained a long time ago!

After two secret acquisitions, among all the materials currently needed for the furnace, except for the last rare earth element, lutetium, has not yet been found.

All other materials required were in excess of the share needed to make the furnace.

"2,000 points is no longer an unacceptable amount of money for me now."

"Waiting any longer will not only delay the progress of shelter development, but will also create a series of unnecessary variables."

"It's better to use the system's creation to directly arrange the lutetium!"

After deciding to use the creation function, Su Mo directly moved all the materials for making the furnace to the front and back of the workbench according to the requirements on the design drawing, and opened the creation panel.

With a thought, 2000 points Survival Points were spent like running water.

In the air, little white light particles began to condense, and after three to five seconds, the gray-black colorless crystals were completely formed and fell on the table.

At the same time, the manufacturing panel that indicated that there was insufficient material also instantly glowed with green light, and all the materials were gathered together!

"Confirm. Create a furnace!"

After collecting all the things, I took another look at the various materials already on the ground. Following Su Mo's confirmation, Game Panel instantly received the order and started making it.

The 240 points Disaster Points needed to make the furnace are deducted, and there are currently 2218 points left in the account.

Seeing that the manufacturing time only took five minutes, Su Mo simply came to the first floor of the shelter and quietly waited for the manufacturing to be completed.

The gray-black furnace occupies a small area and only requires ten square meters.

And the furnace is also powered by electricity, which is the easiest resource to obtain in Underground Shelter!

As long as it is connected to electricity, the temperature in the furnace can be heated to 2,000 or even 3,000 degrees Celsius in a short time to start working.

Although this power consumption may be terrifying, it is nothing compared to the role of the furnace.

Five minutes flew by in a blink of an eye.

When the game manufacturing panel made a ding, Su Mo quickly cut open the panel and found the furnace that had been shown to be placed.

Aiming at the corner of the garage, he silently confirmed in his mind.

boom! In the void, a huge furnace flashed directly, bringing up huge amounts of dust and pressing it onto the ground.

And within a few seconds, it was completely bonded to the ground, as if the furnace grew out of the stone.

"You cannot move it after placing it, otherwise it will cost 500 Disaster Points points. However, under the current circumstances, there is no need to move it!"

After reading the precautions for use, Su Mo turned off Game Panel and began to look at the behemoth in front of him.

It is different from the furnace in the simulation building game. Although the furnace in front of you is similar to the furnace in 7 Days of Death and Mc, in general, it still follows the modular technology and design concepts and ideas similar to Oil Well.

The entire furnace is also divided into three parts.

The feeding area consists of a huge square box and a pipe about two meters thick. The square box uses mysterious space storage technology and is twenty cubic meters in size. As long as the raw materials that need to be prepared are input into it, the pipe can be used to transport the center of the furnace.

In the center of the furnace, there are four long pipes like Ship Horn leading directly to the top for heat dissipation. As for the structure inside, it is completely sealed and cannot be viewed at the moment.

The discharging area, like Oil Well, is also connected by four thick pipes and connected to four square iron boxes on the ground. The space size of each iron box is 15 cubic meters. On the side of the rightmost square box, there is another pipe that leads directly to the feeding area to ensure that things that need secondary smelting can be recycled repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, although there are mysterious technological elements in it, the working principle is still easy to understand so far!"

Stroking the surface of the furnace, which was made of unknown materials, the attribute diagram of the furnace also popped up as Su Mo praised it.

[Melting furnace (excellent)]

[Description]: Modular technology products have a series of wonderful ways of use. When combined with other modules, they have incredible functions.

[Currently owned modules]: Crucible module, Strong Reaction Module, Storage Module

[Function]: Processing [Power consumption]: 10kw. h The current furnace only has three modules. Corresponding to the specific functions, it only has the attribute of smelting.

I tried to cut out System Panel, but after seeing that adding other modules often required tens of thousands of points, Su Mo quickly gave up the idea of upgrading.

"There is only one processing attribute, which is completely sufficient for current use."

"As for the various functions that will be needed later, there is no rush. You can collect them slowly and see if you can get them out of the box!"

After the furnace is started, it consumes ten kilowatt hours of electricity per hour.

Try to connect the thick connector to the thickest wire interface reserved for the original design of the shelter.

As Su Mo returned to the second floor and turned on the power supply to Diesel Generator, after turning on the power supply to the furnace, the furnace began to run roaringly for the first time.

Snap! On the side of the feeding area, there is also a palm-sized electronic screen that is as familiar as Oil Well. It shows what can be manufactured in the only processing function at present.

"The most needed thing at the moment is definitely the steel plate for destroyers. If this thing can't be built well, I'm afraid it will fall apart after just two steps!"

"But since we want to build it, we have to ensure that there won't be any problems for at least three to five years, and the materials are selected well!"

There were a lot of fancy things on the panel. After some filtering, Su Mo quickly found the steel column and clicked in.

Common steel can be divided into "structural steel" and "tool steel" according to its use.

According to alloy elements, it is divided into "carbon structural steel" and "alloy structural steel".

It is also divided into "carbon tool steel" and "alloy tool steel".

According to the S and P impurity content, it can be divided into ordinary steel, high-quality steel, high-grade high-quality steel, and special-grade high-quality steel.

The famous Titanic, which was said to be unsinkable, fell apart when it hit an iceberg. The reason is that the steel plates it used contained many chemical impurities, zinc sulfide, and were soaked in cold seawater for a long time, making the steel plates more fragile.

Only then did it break apart under a small impact, becoming a permanent regret.

Therefore, in the selection of materials for manufacturing destroyers, based on the principle of high to low, Su Mo directly skipped low-strength steel and focused on the military steel used to build ships.

The research on the application of military steel is very complicated, with a total of nine categories and more than 140 items.

Accurate tests must be made on the strength, toughness, crack resistance, stress state at low temperatures, etc. of steel.

Under normal circumstances, for example, for materials used in aircraft carriers, the yield strength of deck steel is 90+0Mpa, and the yield strength of the hull is also 780Mpa.

Going all the way down, the smallest destroyer must maintain a strength of at least 400Mpa to ensure maximum safety.

"Currently, the best steel that can be made in furnaces only has a strength of 620Mpa. This should be limited by the temperature that the supporting facilities of the shelter can provide."

"Or it may be related to other modules!"

Arranged from high to low, the best military steel has a high degree of yield. However, after clicking in to see the specific requirements, Su Mo gave up the idea of manufacturing it.

Without him, the resource consumption would be too terrible! Military steel requires the addition of many strange things. In the furnace, this step is simplified to only providing a sufficient number of basic materials.

But with regard to the quantity of this basic material, after seeing that one unit of 620-strength steel actually requires 1,380 units of Iron Block and 880 units of copper blocks, Su Mo could only smack his tongue and choose to give up.

There is nothing wrong with modern warships using such expensive steel, because the hull steel plates of modern warships are actually not thick, on the contrary, they are very thin. For example, in 052, the thickness of the steel plate is only 30 mm.

What concept? The diameter of a one-dollar coin is 25 mm, and the steel plate of the warship is only 5 mm thicker.

In modern warfare, the means of attacking warships have begun to become more and more advanced, from the original bombs and torpedoes to the popularity of anti-ship missiles, and the silent hunting of nuclear submarines equipped with large-caliber torpedoes.

In this case, too thick armor will not only fail to protect, but will only hinder combat performance.

But in the wasteland, if you really design such thin armor according to modern thinking and fight a modern war, you are simply courting death.

If nothing else, if there are aliens in the water then, with a steel fork, I'm afraid I can easily dig a big hole out.

"The steel plate must be thick. Without the weapons equipped by the destroyer, thickness is justice. Even if it is a collision, I will hit it hard!"

Currently, there are only about 8,000 units of Iron Block in the refuge. Even if it is temporarily mined, the number will not exceed 30,000.

Calculated based on the destroyer's length of 40 meters, the required steel, based on the design of Su Mo, will start at least 2,000 units.

Under this demand, if the unit price is controlled at around 10:1, it will be the best cost-effectiveness.

580? Too expensive, give up!

520? Still too expensive, give up! Selecting along the way, watching the strength getting lower and lower, even about to break through the psychological limit, it was not until the demand for 440-strength steel popped up that Su Mo felt relieved.

For 440Mpa military steel, 1 unit requires 13 units of Iron Block and 1.5 units of copper blocks.

2000 units, you need 26000 units of Iron Block and 3000 units of copper blocks!

Based on the current reserves in the base, 18,000 units of Iron Block still need to be mined to meet manufacturing needs.

"The plans do not conflict. If we want to survive the next disaster, people from Candlelight Shelter must relocate to Iron Stone Mountain!"

"With the transportation of high-quality Iron Pickaxe and Storage Space, the digging speed of hundreds of people is not slower than that of machinery, or even faster!"

"You can kill two birds with one stone. While mining enough Iron Block, you can directly dig out a large space in the mountain that is enough for hundreds of people to survive the disaster!"
