System: Build My Own Territory Chapter 1323 - 346: The Sole Master of Kakasong City (10K)_6

It won’t be long now.

The first batch of armored cavalry will soon be produced!

Fully equipped armored cavalry, compared to ordinary heavy cavalry, will experience a qualitative leap in power!

The second double-chamber reflector furnace, after a week of high-temperature smelting, has completed the smelting test.

At this moment, it has already been put into smelting production, producing steel.

Teams of blacksmith apprentices are rushing to make composite armor.

At the reminder of the blacksmith apprentice.

Foreman Erelo, who is teaching blacksmith apprentices how to forge special parts of composite armor, turns his body in confusion.

Upon seeing Lynn, Erelo instructs a dozen blacksmith apprentices with a few words, then strides up to Lynn.

In front of Lynn, Erelo bows and pays his respects.

"Master Lynn."

Lynn responds with a sound and asks.

"Foreman Erelo, is the steel production of the second double-chamber reflector furnace stable?"

Listening to Master Lynn’s inquiry, a smile appears on Erelo’s face as he replies.

"Master, according to the blueprints you provided for construction, there can naturally be no issues."

"Both double-chamber reflector furnaces are steadily producing steel!"

Lynn nods slightly, expressing approval.

"Very good."

"However, the forging goals of the second blacksmith workshop need to be adjusted..."

"From now on, the second blacksmith workshop will focus on forging steel tracks and steel mining carts."

Erelo’s eyebrows are instantly raised, repeating the words spoken by Master Lynn.

"Steel tracks? Steel mining carts?"

Lynn nods and says, "The steel forged from the double-chamber reflector furnace will be crafted into sturdy and flexible steel tracks."

"This will enhance the transportation capacity of the tracks."

"Also, forge brand new steel mining carts with steel."

"This will increase the load capacity and sturdiness of the mining carts."

"As long as steel tracks and steel mining carts are forged, anthracite transportation capacity can at least improve two to three times!"

The two to threefold increase mentioned by Lynn is only an estimate.

Because.

Even if Lynn had the blacksmith workshop forge steel tracks and mining carts.

It only enhances sturdiness and durability.

Before a steam engine is produced in the Lynn Territory.

Lynn can only continue to use a hand-crank device to convert human power into mechanical energy for the mining carts to advance.

Seeing the obvious confusion on Erelo’s face, Lynn doesn’t mind at all.

Erelo used to be just an ordinary blacksmith for farm tools.

Naturally unaware of the methods of forging steel tracks and steel mining carts.

As Lynn moves his hands, rolling up his robe sleeves.

Under Erelo’s puzzled gaze, he walks toward the furnace workbench in the distance.

But soon.

Erelo understands.

Master Lynn is about to personally demonstrate how to forge steel tracks and carts.

Not far away.

The blacksmith apprentices waiting for Erelo to continue teaching how to forge composite armor also cast curious glances.

Even though these blacksmith apprentices have more than once seen or heard that their Master Lynn would personally undertake forging.

But upon seeing him once more.

The blacksmith apprentices are still unable to suppress their curiosity.

Under the gaze of everyone in the blacksmith workshop.

Lynn arrives at the workbench and clamps out a glowing orange-red piece of steel from the furnace.

He picks up the iron hammer and starts forging and pounding directly.

Clang~ clang~ clang~

Lynn’s movements are fluid as water, with every drop of the iron hammer in his right hand sparking bursts of fire and producing sharp metallic sounds.

[Forging Experience +1]

[Forging Experience +1]

[Forging Experience +1]

...

As Lynn continuously swings the iron hammer, forging and pounding.

Experience is continuously accumulating bit by bit.

At the same time.

Knowledge and memories of how to forge steel tracks and steel mining carts emerge in Lynn’s mind.

Under the high-temperature baking of the furnace.

After an hour of continuous forging and pounding.

Lynn’s cheeks are covered with large beads of sweat, and the satin robe on his body is drenched with sweat.

Fortunately.

Complete knowledge and memories of forging steel tracks and mining carts have already appeared in Lynn’s mind.

Awaiting the fusion of knowledge and memories for comprehensive understanding.

Lynn can’t help but marvel at the strength of [Heavenly Artifacts].

Not only that.

Lynn is even more grateful that he has already completed the construction of the double-chamber reflector furnace in advance for steel smelting production.

Because.

To forge and produce steel tracks and mining carts, it is essential to have steel with low carbon content, high strength, and high toughness.

Iron blocks produced by blast furnaces must undergo repeated forging to become wrought iron suitable for tracks.

Extremely low output, inefficient, and extremely high cost!

But now.

Lynn has constructed a double-chamber reflector furnace, producing liquid steel with extremely low carbon content.

It is entirely possible to adopt a casting method, creating sand molds for high-efficiency mass production.

Just like how standard plate armor components were once cast!

Pours liquid steel into sand molds, waits for natural air cooling, and completes solidification.

Then it undergoes forging and straightening processes, bringing the forged steel track bars to meet linearity standards.

Thus.

The steel tracks can be put to paving!

Using casting plus forging methods for producing steel tracks.

Is currently Lynn’s thought and the most suitable method for the blacksmith workshop’s current production conditions!

Confirming the ideas in his mind, Lynn wastes no time and begins crafting sand molds.

To enhance the load capacity of steel tracks and prevent track breakage due to concentrated stress.

Lynn directly designs the sand mold’s interior in an L-shape.

L-shaped steel tracks are suitable for sand casting processes for mass production.

At the same time.

The difficulty of mold making is low, further reducing defects like shrinkage and cracks in steel tracks.

The cross-section of the L-shape allows the pressure from the wheels of coal-laden mining carts to transfer from the vertical side to the horizontal side and diffuse to the sleepers below.

This enables steel tracks to distribute force more evenly, thereby extending the lifespan of steel tracks!

The dimensions of the sand mold in the mold are crafted according to the already laid-out wooden tracks.

Steel tracks are ten meters long, ten centimeters wide, and five centimeters thick.

Lynn’s intention is that once the existing wooden tracks are removed, the forged and cast steel tracks can be laid down, followed by reinforcement and stabilization.

And complete the forging of each steel mining cart.

The steel tracks and mining carts can restore the transportation capacity of the tracks!

Most crucially.

This method.

Can effectively reduce the manpower, resources, and energy invested by blacksmith apprentices into the steel tracks!

As Lynn continues making the sand molds, time rapidly advances.

Until evening.

Lynn, with somewhat heavy steps, walks out of the blacksmith workshop, leaving the handicraft workshop district.

Based on Lynn’s production efficiency, rough calculations are made.

It will take at least five days to craft a complete steel track sand mold!

Of course.

This is because all procedures for making sand molds are being carried out by Lynn alone.

Once Lynn has completed the demonstration of crafting and hands over the production blueprints to Erelo.

Erelo, leading hundreds of blacksmith apprentices, can collaborate on production, naturally greatly enhancing production efficiency.

Lynn reaches the Lord’s Square and takes a rest on a bench.

Although the temperature gradually decreases.

But after a day of intense labor, Lynn, whose body is overheated.

Does not feel the slightest hint of chill but instead feels inexplicably comfortable.

After resting a bit.

Lynn prepares to rise from the bench and return to the castle.

Outside the small town, on the lime road between vast farmlands.

A cavalry rider is constantly urging his swift horse, galloping towards the Lord’s Square.

Farmers walking on the lime road hear the continuous sound of hoofbeats and scramble to avoid the path.

As the cavalry approaches and enters the Lord’s Square.

Lynn finally sees the face of the man riding the swift horse.

It’s none other than the spy leader responsible for intelligence gathering in Kakasong City, Gasper!
