Chapter 200: The Birth of the Steam Engine
Chen Ming also got good news here when his disciples were busy. That day, Chen Ming was playing with a rope. The rope was about two meters long and was as white as jade. It was floating in the air. Chen Ming looked at the rope with thoughtful eyes, thinking about what other formations or other things could be added to it.
At this moment, a voice shouted outside the garden: "Jumu asked to see the Master!!"
After a while, Mo Ze brought Jumu in. Chen Ming turned his head and saw an unpredictable look of joy on Jumu's face, which was extremely unstable. He immediately raised his eyebrows and had some guesses in his heart. At this moment, Jumu knelt down on one knee, holding his fists and bowed with excitement while saying: "Master! Jumu has lived up to his responsibilities, and the steam engine is made!!"
Chen Ming immediately smiled on his face when he heard this. He put away the rope with his thoughts and stretched out his hand to help Jumu and said, "Please get up quickly. Since you have done it, why should you come here in such a hurry? Master Jumu should break through first."
Jumu smiled and said, "The way of disciples lies in the mechanism, and you need to create a master-level institution to enter the Tao."
Chen Ming nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then manufacturing is the same. All the materials required are provided by the college. Let's take a look at the steam engine first."
"Okay!" Ju Mu nodded fiercely. Chen Ming nodded no longer hesitated, grabbed Ju Mu and disappeared in the villa together.
A moment later, in a room in the college, what appeared in front of Chen Ming was a reciprocating steam engine about 1.6 meters high. The whole body was made of copper and divided into a base, cylinder, piston, connecting rod crank, steam distribution device and flywheel. It can work as long as it is connected to the boiler.
Chen Ming couldn't help feeling a little excited when he saw the steam engine. This is a trace of industry and a leap of civilization. With it, it represents the formal arrival of industrial civilization.
"Okay!" Chen Ming nodded excitedly and turned around and asked, "Have you done the test? Can it run smoothly?"
"Yes, I've tried it."
Next, Chen Ming and Ju Mu conducted another test. As the boiler boiled, the steam drove the cylinder and piston to run, and the connecting rod began to perform reciprocating movement. The entire steam engine began to start and the steam began to rise. Unfortunately, only Chen Ming and the others saw this scene.
"Okay." Chen Ming said OK again, then smiled on his face and asked Jumu, "What kind of mechanics do you plan to be?"
"Disciple has already thought about it. I want to be an institution in the scene that Master saw before!"
"The scene I saw before?" Chen Ming was confused at first, then he looked shocked and his mouth grew slightly.
Damn it.
This guy is not going to do Gundam...
Just rely on a steam engine?
But then Chen Ming realized that this world is not a normal world.
It seems that it is not impossible...
Thinking of this, Chen Ming couldn't help but feel eager to try it out, and slapped Jumu's shoulder hard and said, "Just do it! I'll do my best to find any materials for you!"
Jumu didn't know Chen Ming's bad thoughts, and thought Chen Ming was just trying to help him. He immediately clasped his fists and said excitedly: "Thank you, my disciple!!!"
...
After several days of treatment in Qugu City, the medical team led by Su Ruoran has gained a great reputation in the military camp. Under her command, the wounded barracks built dozens of huge tents. The wounded barracks were lying on the hospital beds. The entire wounded barracks were well managed. The soldiers who had originally needed to cut off their hands and feet and suture the wounds. The infection that was originally bound to be mortal was enough to get a shot of penicillin.
The hot water was burning for 24 hours, and the entire barracks were filled with alcohol. Now any soldier would respect this group of doctors wearing white bandages on their arms, and would do whatever they wanted. In just five days, the medical team and doctors found in the surrounding city rescued thousands of wounded soldiers, winning the respect of the entire Zhendong Army and Zhenbei Army.
But even so, wounded soldiers are sent here every day in Tianqu City, and the battle there is too tragic.
The rest of the people were not idle during this period. Cangshan Entertainment News has started printing in Qugu City, bringing the information here to various places. The white wine in the military camp is provided by Xiao Wennuo, and the food in the military camp is getting better and better. Various new dishes are constantly coming, and soybean oil, soap and other items are delivered. Anyway, they are not short of military expenses, and the morale of the troops is gradually stabilizing.
On the fifth day of the students' arrival, a huge hot air balloon gradually rose in the military camp. The hot air balloon that was completely gray was not good-looking, but it attracted a group of military bosses. Hundreds of people gathered on the school ground to watch the hot air balloons slowly levitate.
"It's really possible!!!"
As the hot air balloon slowly took off and was several meters above the ground, everyone exclaimed, and Zhang Yu, who was surrounded by the crowd, enjoyed the warmest treatment.
"Brother, how high can your airbag fly?" Fang Ting asked, and Zhang Yu replied: "According to the calculation, it should be able to fly to the stratosphere, which is about thirty miles away from the ground."
"Thirty miles!"
"Enough, absolutely enough. You only need to be half a mile above the ground, and the arrows can't shoot that high."
"We can also expect the enemy's initiative with this thing, and we can even send archers to shoot and kill enemy generals."
“…”
During the discussion among the crowd, Fang Ting quickly made a few more hot air balloons to send to Tianqu City, so this scene happened in Tianqu City the next day.
Outside was siege, a group of people inside pulled ropes to tie the hot air balloon, then lit the tinder oil, and the hot air balloon slowly took off.
Several miles outside the city, Sun Man, the general of Yan Kingdom, immediately frowned as he looked at the hot air balloons rising in Tianqu City. He had a bad premonition in his heart and shouted at the person next to him: "What is this? Why can he fly?"
"This... I don't know."
Before they could finish their discussion, a gust of west wind blew, blowing the hot air balloon above the giant in the mechanism. The people in the hot air balloon poured the tinder oil down desperately. At this time, the people of the Gongshu realized that it was not good. A wise man of the Gongshu turned his sage and shouted: "Hurry!! Let the people of the government come back!!"
However, it was too late. After the turmeric oil was dumped, two torches were thrown off. The moment the flames touched the turmeric oil, a raging fire suddenly burned to form a sea of fire.
"Boom~"
The flames burned and the heat wave rushed through dozens of meters! It was spectacular!
Not only that, when the turd oil was poured, some of it was also scattered on the ground and the surrounding soldiers of the Yan Kingdom. The flames burned along the turd oil and they were all over the body, and under the city walls suddenly became a hell on earth.
The expressions of the Gongshu people changed, especially those who were controlled. Their spiritual marks were connected to the mechanical people. When the mechanical people were burned by the flames, their spiritual heat seemed to feel in the sea of spirit. They didn't care much about it. They quickly controlled the mechanical giant and walked aside and rolled on the ground, intending to extinguish the flames on their bodies.
But where is the tincture oil so easy to extinguish? Even when the giant in the mechanism rolled, he crushed some people to death, and threw some of the tincture oil onto the Yan Kingdom soldiers on the battlefield. For a moment, the man was on his horse and screamed. Sun Man's face was pale and shouted to the people next to him: "Retreat!! Retreat!! Let them retreat!!"
Soon, the sound of cow horns sounded on the battlefield, and the Red Yan Army returned to its position with abandoned armor. The two organs finally extinguished the flames on their bodies. Fortunately, the tincture oil that the hot air balloon can hold is limited, and the direction of the hot air balloon cannot be controlled by itself, so there is not much tincture oil that is sprinkled on the organs, otherwise the organs will be completely burned this time. However, after this battle, Yan State would have to consider it if it wanted to send the organs, and it would be impossible to be as unscrupulous as before.
Since the day of siege, the Yan Kingdom army has suffered heavy damage for the first time, and Tianqu City has won a great victory!
