Iron Dynasty

"According to this order, you have watched me one by one, and you must not neglect."

In the imperial study room, Xiao Ming gave Pang Yukun a black booklet on which he asked Pang Yukun and Fiji to establish some industries.

Pang Yukun took the booklet and just glanced at it, and couldn't help being excited. This is what Xiao Mingluo has listed out now that Da Yu Country lacks and needs perfection.

In addition to industry, the aquaculture industry is also highlighted.

"The emperor, with this minister, you can proclaim the department according to the script." Pang Yukun said happily.

Xiao Ming nodded and said what he should have said. At this time, he asked the two of them to go back separately and strictly follow the industry plan he provided to realize the country's own industry system.

Sending off the two, Xiao Ming relieved his laziness. Although Pang Yukun and Fiji had handled a lot of government affairs for him during this period, he was worried more than before.

With all walks of life blooming everywhere in Dayu, he had to go to battle personally to give more knowledge to the students of Qingzhou University.

Although the science and technology library is in his mind, he can't realize the rise of civilization alone. Only by cultivating more and more talents like Lin Wentao and Lu Tong can a complete industrial system be realized in Great Chongqing.

Just as he was thinking about it, Qian Dafu came over unwillingly and complained: "The emperor is already very tired, why the emperor has to ask the emperor personally for this trivial country."

Xiao Ming suddenly laughed. This Qian Dafu really felt sorry for him, the emperor. After all, strictly speaking, the owner of his body was the one he watched grow up.

"After all, who is begging to see you outside the door." Every time Qian Dafu complains like this, it must be something big or small.

After sighing, Qian Dafu said, "It was Zhang Liang and his daughter who begged to see him. They were talking about the steam engine ship. In the eyes of the old slave, why should you come to the emperor for such a small matter."

If it had been before, Xiao Ming might not have seen the two, but now he must be hands-on in science and technology, in order to let the Great Yu country catch up with Europe as soon as possible.

After all, he is progressing, and European technology is also progressing, and Europe in this era is obviously more open than contemporary Europe.

In the same historical period, the technological level of Europe at this time has surpassed contemporary Europe for half a century or more. The most important thing is that such Europe has extended its tentacles to Asia.

Therefore, he needs the same weapon to defeat them at sea. This is the steam battleship.

"This is not a trivial matter, let them in." Qian Dafu complained and complained, but some things were still afraid to push away without authorization.

In response, Qian Dafu turned and left, and soon led Zhang Liang and his daughter to the royal study room.

"Xiaguan, folk girl, see the emperor." Zhang Liang and Zhang Qiyun said simultaneously.

"Free gift." Xiao Ming looked at the two of them, "Did you encounter difficulties on the steamboat?"

Zhang Qiyun is a boring gourd. He doesn't like talking. Zhang Liang knows his daughter, so he proactively said: "The emperor, the old minister and his daughter tried to build a steam battleship at the Qingzhou Shipyard when they returned from Dengzhou. Now they have some eyebrows, but what are they doing now? I am worried about motivation, so I am here to call on the Pope."

"Tell me about it." Xiao Ming said with a straight face, and every time he discussed technical issues, he acted like a technician.

Zhang Liang cleared his throat and organized a few words to say; “After the old minister’s experiment, now the steam engine plus the propeller can indeed make a battleship sail, but the old minister is not very relieved about the steam engine. If the coal on the battleship runs out, or the steam engine Damaged, this steam engine ship is equivalent to a dead ship, so the old official thought that we should not only use steam power, but also keep the mast of the sailing warship."

After a pause, Zhang Liang said: "But this is just the idea of ​​the veteran, and the daughter of the veteran insists on completely changing the structure of the battleship. For this matter, this girl fought the veteran with the emperor’s will for several days, and the veteran had no choice but to come. Find the emperor."

As soon as Zhang Liang’s voice fell, Zhang Qiyun said: “The emperor, the steam engine warship has its own suitable hull structure. Nowadays, to build the steam warship, it is natural to abandon the previous hull.”

"But how many cannons are on your hull?" Zhang Liang shook his head, "You are just a bottle of dissatisfaction, half a bottle of smash."

Xiao Ming smiled. Zhang Liang was saying that Zhang Qiyun did not learn thoroughly. He looked at Zhang Qiyun and said: "The main purpose of warships is to fight, so many times sailing warships would rather give up speed and ensure firepower. Now that my artillery positions are gone, how are my warships still fighting?"

Zhang Qiyun frowned and was taken aback for a while, but she really didn't think about it.

Zhang Liang showed a triumphant smile at this time, very proud of Jiang's old-fashioned pride. He had to say that when his daughter proposed steam power, his eyes almost fell off.

For this purpose, he deliberately returned from Dengzhou to Qingzhou to try to produce a steam engine-powered ship. Now under preliminary tests, he and Zhang Qiyun have completed the experiment of the steam engine driving the propeller to move the ship forward. The experimental model will be officially started. The construction of ships.

"The emperor, the old minister's suggestion is to temporarily use hybrid power, retain the power of the sailing warship, and the steam engine as the auxiliary power. After all, in the opinion of the old minister, it is difficult for the current steam engine to propel a large warship to sail, and without coal supply, the warship will be finished. "Zhang Liang finally said.

Xiao Ming nodded, UU reading www.uukānshu.com Zhang Liang said that it is true that the steam engine is now being improved. The steam engine in this steam engine battleship is no longer an ordinary steam engine, but a high temperature and high pressure steam engine.

Compared with ordinary steam engines, this steam engine is more efficient and more powerful.

It is with this kind of steam engine as a guarantee that Lin Wentao dare to start producing steam locomotives, and now this kind of steam engine is used on warships.

Just as Zhang Liang worries, his warships will be sailing far in the future. For this reason, the purely steam-powered warships need to be supplemented with coal and fresh water at each supply point.

Now there is no problem in the waters of Dayu State, but he can't do anything outside of this range. Therefore, sails are needed at this time to ensure that the warship can move.

Zhang Qiyun was originally very stubborn. Now that Zhang Liang and Xiao Ming analyzed this way, she gradually remembered, but she was still a little unwilling, "Doesn't the steam engine battleship become a joke?"

"That's not the case. After the artillery problem of the steam battleship is solved, the iron armored battleship can be officially built, at least it can be used in the surrounding area." Xiao Ming said with a smile, he currently does not have the ability to make a steam battleship's rotating turret.
