Yang Yuanzhao did not expect that the task of suppressing bandits proposed would have such a big difference. In his opinion, to wipe out bandits and ensure the smooth trade routes in Baotou are what Baotou must do now, but most of them did not speak, neither supported nor opposed.

Liu Shu glanced at Yang Yuanzhao and then said, "Yuan Zhao, is it too anxious to do this?"

"Want?" Yang Yuanzhao glanced at Liu Shu deeply and said, "You think I'm in a hurry. I know that the caravan of the Eight Great Masters can travel across the country, but the Eight Great Masters may not be able to do what I want to do!"

"The bandits cannot be killed!" Liu Shu said here, paused for a moment, as if he was organizing language, looked at Yang Yuanzhao deeply, and then said: "We cannot overturn our established policy because of a loss!"

"This is not your purpose. You hope to get something through this bandit incident!" Yang Yuanzhao looked at Liu Shu and then said. From the other party's reaction, he saw why the shareholders opposed him doing this.

Baotou is now developing normally in all aspects, and the expansion of industrialization is step by step. With the many engineers obtained from Germany and the United States, under the guidance of Yang Yuanzhao, all aspects of Baotou's factory are developing normally.

"That's right, we want to seek breakthroughs. You haven't noticed that there are no new troops in Baotou and Mongolia?" Liu Shu pointed out and said.

The new army, Yang Yuanzhao's heart suddenly moved. In addition to industrial, there is only one Yellow River Patrol Battalion in the official position, and the patrol battalion is the system of the old army. The old army had only one battalion. In addition to the Yellow River Patrol Battalion, a militia was established. The militia was stuffed into many people. In a sense, it was just a local armed force, without a formal organization, and even Maxim and artillery could not be owned casually.

In this sense, if Baotou wants to expand its scale, it must be a new army, and a new army must be a new army. One reason is that perhaps, the forced implementation of Shanxi and Mongolian generals that could be relied on before was the responsibility of the local governor. But now, the entire center is in chaos, and Yuan Shikai from Beiyang is about to lose his power, and the top leaders are almost doing it in a mess, and they can only implement it from the bottom up.

Yang Yuanzhao understood Liu Shu’s thoughts a little. He shook his head and said, “No, I can’t do this. The bandits must be wiped out!”

"Forget it. Since you think this is not possible, then follow your wishes. However, I believe that Baotou will soon be threatened by bandits." Liu Shu and others did not force it, nor did they stop Yang Yuanzhao's actions. Some things are too plain and not good.

Yang Yuanzhao did not understand what Liu Shu and the others thought. Wang Jinming and others rushed back with all the cotton and the staff, and they carried out the pensions of the personnel step by step. Wang Jinming and others had not come back yet. Therefore, Yang Yuanzhao's next actions were not carried out. In his opinion, it should be an easy task to suppress bandits. When Wang Jinming and others came back, the new army started, the bandit suppression work could be carried out in accordance with the trend. He focused on the development of Baotou industry.

The time entered the twelfth month. After several months of construction, the synthetic ammonia factory finally started to operate smoothly. After several months and a series of preparations, the synthetic ammonia factory began to produce in small batches. In the past few months, from the first two reaction tanks to the later step by step, about 20 reaction tanks were erected step by step, the largest one was 200 cubic meters. This is already the limit that technology can reach in this era. The 200 cubic reaction tank represents the ultimate of Germany's industry. China has not yet been able to produce this and can only rely on Germany.

With a reaction ratio of about 15%, the liquid synthetic ammonia generated under a high-pressure sealed container will reach about 20 cubic meters per tank per day, one group and two groups, and 10 groups will be 200 cubic meters. In this way, the output of synthetic ammonia will reach about 150 tons per day.

This number has greatly exceeded Germany's production before World War I. You should know that before World War I, the nitric acid produced was only about 3,500 tons, and the converted tnt was only tens of thousands of tons. For a big country and a war that consumes huge ammunition, this amount is really not large. Relying on these preparations, Germany brazenly launched a war, and once gained the upper hand in land warfare.

For Yang Yuanzhao, the output of 150 tons is normal. Later, he gradually changed from five small factories to five major factories. High-energy-consuming enterprises such as small fertilizers and small cement have been shut down and transferred one after another, and replaced by regional and group-based large fertilizers and large cement projects.

300,000 tons of fertilizer is a standard value, and the daily output will be as high as more than 1,000 tons. This not only represents an increase in output, but also represents an improvement in synthesis capacity. You should know that even a 300,000 tons or even a million tons fertilizer plant may not have many possible reaction tanks. Most of them are attached supporting facilities. To a certain extent, it is the key to the rapid development of later generations.

Nowadays, the daily production of a reaction tank is only 20 cubic meters, about ten tons of liquid ammonia. In this way, in later generations, even a small fertilizer factory cannot compare with it. It is the most advanced technology of the era. Without a large-scale hydraulic press, Yang Yuanzhao can only copy and produce based on existing products and expand production. The reason is that the materials required for a 200 cubic tank body is completely different from that of 2,000 cubic meters, 20,000 cubic meters. What's more, the synthetic ammonia in later generations requires not only high-pressure sealed containers, but also low-temperature sealed containers. The pressure and high requirements for materials are far from what the era can imagine. It can only rely on the improvement of technology and research it slowly.

The amount of fertilizer that can be produced at 150 tons per day can be produced is extremely large. Because of the current situation in Baotou's entire agriculture, 80% of it becomes fertilizer, and 120 tons of ammonia is converted into a few times the cost. In a sense, it replaces the output of the all-in-one machine.

At present, the daily output of all-in-one machines is between 200 tons. Even if the fertilizer is completely produced, it may not be able to support the agricultural investment in Baotou, more than 600 acres of land, and even if the seedlings are planted, the fertilizer required is an astronomical figure. In order to ensure wheat production, Yang Yuanzhao tilts most of the output of all-in-one machines towards expenses.

But now, with the successful production of synthetic ammonia, the direct production cost of synthetic ammonia, or the use of ammonia to produce concentrated nitric acid, and then reflect with concentrated nitric acid and ammonia, the ammonium nitrate produced is also the main variety of nitrogen fertilizer in this world, but it is not very conducive to the absorption of plants.

Most of the ammonia gas is used in addition to the production of fertilizer plants. The remaining 20% ​​and 30 tons are about 30 tons. As raw materials for producing nitric acid, this is the focus of Yang Yuanzhao's attention.

The initial purpose of the synthesis of ammonia project was to produce nitric acid. Among the five small factories, only nitric acid has the highest technical content and is relatively strict in foreign control. The reason is that almost all explosives are related to nitric acid.

The conversion from ammonia to nitric acid is easier than the process of extracting and making nitric acid from saltpeter. Of course, no one in the world is willing to teach this industrial production process to other companies or countries. Yang Yuanzhao obtained a large number of chemists from the United States and Germany. These chemists have worked together to build high-quality chemical laboratories, strong investment, and various world's most advanced experimental equipment, allowing these scientists to work here in a relatively stable manner and study one product after another.

After the ammonia was produced, with the help of many chemists, the production of nitric acid was completed in the laboratory, and then gradually expanded to industrial production. For the time being, at present, solving the problem of whether there is or not is the key. The output of the laboratory can only be used as a reference. For the time being, real production is to simply realize the transformation of ammonia to nitric acid with the help of workshop-style production. In a sense, the workshop has become the key to nitric acid production.

Yang Yuanzhao did not intervene too much in this aspect, but added some new things to the plan's idea, such as adding modern industrial management, and using scale and systematization, the production process was barely completed. The acid- and alkali-resistant materials provided by Yang Yuanzhao are much stronger than those of this era.

In the all-in-one machine, light shone, and with the first batch of synthetic nitric acid produced, the task of three acids and two alkalis was completed the heaviest. Nitric acid is the most important basic raw material in the future, the famous TNT for the production of various explosives, which is produced based on nitric acid. To a certain extent, in the early 20th century, the production of nitric acid almost represented a part of military strength.

The British and other great powers had very strict control over nitric acid, and they controlled any direction of saltpeter. Just like drugs and oil in later generations, they made nitric acid based on air. To a certain extent, breaking the blockade of the great powers was very critical to armed heavy industry.

Yang Yuanzhao knew very well that China's military industry in this era was always the key to mastering power. The reason why Germany and the United States had obtained enough profits in China was in addition to a German like Habi, the more important reason is that at the entry point of arms, all-in-one machines can produce guns that meet the requirements based on current mainstream guns. However, in a sense, the production capacity of all-in-one machines is limited after all, with an 8-ton production capacity, and even the production weapons that are fully dedicated cannot continue. Now, with the increase in the number of Baotou troops, it is unlikely that it will never end. They are all provided by this. After Yang Yuanzhao completed the three acids and two alkalis, he started the layout of military factories again. (To be continued, please search for astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
