The power of the landmine is not as powerful as the power of later generations, but it is enough to kill a single person. The sergeant saw the messenger through the binoculars. The final result was obviously that the elbow of the arm accidentally hit the mine while lying on the ground, and the entire arm was blown up. The exploded bones and internal organs on that side of the body are all exposed. People must not be saved.
"Let's go, the wolf will come back and eat him at night," said the sergeant, putting away his binoculars
A group of people went back and began to report to their chief. The authority of the major is not very high. He can only submit this report and his own request to the chief. As for the envoys, no one will help them collect the corpses. At dusk, wolves start to come and go. The reason for the large number of wolves in the areas defended by the Qin army is that there are often corpses of Huns left behind in those barbed wire fences in these areas. Qin army soldiers will not collect the corpses for safety, and these corpses become a delicacy for wolves.
Although the minefield will explode, it can't stop those wolves from planning to have a full meal, and these wolves are also very smart. They always send a wolf to approach those gourmet wolves carefully at night. If a certain distance is safe, they will advance a certain distance. If the wolf is killed, he will choose to send another wolf to take over. Finally, they will reach the food place. Then they will have a full meal, and they will follow the same route the next day. It's a pity that the Huns didn't know the clever way of the wolf at all, because they couldn't get close to this place. The distance of the Qin people's artillery has far exceeded the maximum range of their bows and arrows. This characteristic of wolves There is no way to know when the night wolf will have a full meal, and the Huns are unable to move forward because they cannot figure out the location of the opponent's mines.
The Huns sent an envoy, but they were killed by a land mine. The message was sent to the rear through a weak and barely passable road from the Qin army. As for what the people above thought, no one on the bottom wanted to know. What they knew was that they all had a cold. It's sad that there are far fewer people who can be sent to stand guard
As for the emissary, when night fell, hungry wolves entered the minefield one by one along their agreed route, and they were so happy that a large number of dead sheep and some human corpses became their feast. These corpses can keep the wolf pack alive for a long time. The messenger of time is also one of the delicacies of these wolves. These delicacies are like New Year's gifts from the Qin people. These wolves howl excitedly in exchange for the abuse of the soldiers of the Qin army.
The blood here is in stark contrast to the festive atmosphere in Xianyang. The two long red papers in front of the prime minister's mansion made Qin people feel very festive, so the red papers became absolute best-sellers on the first day of the new year. People have bought them and put them on the door of their homes one after another, so Xianyang looks very festive
528 big and small
The festival atmosphere of the Qin people is very strong, especially after every household imitated Shangwen and pasted red paper, the whole of Xianyang looks very festive. There are also new highlights in the traditional festival, which are many exciting sports events.
The second day of junior high school is when the competitions are concentrated. Running, shooting, horseback riding, etc. People have gone out of their homes to watch these exciting events. Watching the games has become a new program after the festival. Sports events attract a large number of attention with their unique viewing.
Racing, shooting, horseback riding, these are all related to the military and the physique of the strong Qin people, but some are purely technical competitions such as racing.
The car racing is not very interesting because there have been some small horse-drawn carriage races before, most of them are four-wheeled carriages. These horse-drawn carriages are contests between the best drivers in the city. Later, although bicycles were added, bicycles and carriages were not there at all. At one level, bicycles alone requested to set up a special event, so that the considerableness of the racing car was greatly reduced.
However, the race car in the second year of junior high school attracted many people because there was a "big guy" this time
The competition was first selected by various horse and horse dealers to encourage people to participate. No.1 has ten gold prizes, so some horse riders are still willing to participate, and some people even modified the horse carriages in order to get the ten gold prizes.
The purpose of the modification is to reduce the weight of the car as much as possible. For example, the number of wheels has changed from four to two. Two wheels are used. Because the weight can be greatly reduced, this modification has a great impact on many people. Specially modified wagons to win races
Just when people were focusing on how to modify the carriage, a middle-aged man named Meng Bao joined in. The difference is that his racing car is made of a steam engine.
Meng Bao is a mechanical worker. He is obsessed with mechanics to study. He thinks that horse-drawn carriages cannot run faster than trains. Trains use steam engines, so he built a small boiler equipment by himself. Later, he imitated the tracks of tractors and used them. As a walking device, from production to development, this big guy spent seven days working hard during the Chinese New Year.
Although his racing car uses a small boiler equipment, it is still a huge "big one" with a tall chimney emitting black smoke, and the entire length of the car is two feet high and almost ten feet high. Such a big guy starts driving. The rumbling is also the reason why many people are attracted to watch the game
Meng Bao stood on the tall racing car and was busy with his hands and feet. The black smoke from the smoke had made his face black. This big guy has no steering wheel and only a control lever. There are four operations in total. When the lever turns, one track needs to be stopped and the other track track is turned. Behind the racing car is a small vehicle pulling coal, and Meng Bao keeps adding coal to the boiler with a shovel.
Because this guy is too heavy, his speed can't be picked up at all, people can catch up with him in a circle around the car, but Meng Bao doesn't plan to win the race the first time, what he wants to declare is that the machine will eventually beat the horse
Some carriages ran past him as if mocking the big man. People followed him curiously. After all, this is a machine.
At this moment, a small car came up behind the big one. This car is also very weird. It is a tricycle. The whole body is very light, and some parts even use wooden boards.
But there are two big pillars in front of him. Meng Bao knows that they are pistons.
"Hey, are you also participating in the competition?" There was a young man in the car
"I can't hear what you are saying," Meng Bao shouted loudly
"I said, are you here to participate in the competition?" The young man shouted loudly. The steam engine was so loud that Meng Bao couldn't hear clearly.
"En" Meng Bao simply replied
The young man raised a thumbs up high to indicate his efforts and then walked away. This young man was driving an early car. The difference is that he used diesel instead of gasoline.
The discovery of the diesel engine was actually very accidental. After people discovered the phenomenon that gunpowder can be used to drive the piston after it is ignited in the piston, they did not study it in depth. The reason is that they could not find a reliable thing to replace gunpowder. Under pressure, sometimes detonation can be achieved without special ignition, so this experiment was abandoned.
But with the rapid economic development of the Qin State, especially the large-scale demand for asphalt, a large amount of gasoline, kerosene and diesel began to appear. People discovered the role of kerosene, especially after adding a glass lampshade, the demand for kerosene began to become as big as asphalt. But gasoline and diesel are not very useful. These two are mainly used as fuel, but their burning speed is too fast or volatile, causing some accidents. During transportation, the carriage can be completely burned, so gasoline and diesel have always been used as fuel. Waste oil is disposed of for commercial purposes other than military use and no one wants it at all
And at this time, that young man just now is a student of chemistry at Qin State University. He has taken two courses at the same time. Qin State’s university curriculum is still not standardized. He made a huge discovery in a certain field and soon he became a teacher in this field
The refineries in the north became concerned about the growing backlog of gasoline and diesel, which were explosive and nobody wanted them, so the student began to study gasoline and diesel.
Once he conducted a compression test on gasoline. He tried to use the compression test to see if the other party could generate a new substance, but unfortunately it was unsuccessful, but when he was testing diesel oil, he suddenly pushed the air plug open during compression. This is a coincidence. The discovery made him very surprised. After a series of tests, he found that the ignition point of diesel oil was lower than that of gasoline. This discovery could not solve the usefulness of diesel oil. When he was in the mechanical department, the teacher gave him a big lesson when he was explaining the principle of the steam engine. The inspiration was to use the process of compressing and igniting diesel to complete a mechanical action, so he began to conceive and research, and finally developed a diesel internal combustion engine.
529 Powerless
The appearance of the diesel internal combustion engine can save the power plant from being as big as a steam engine like Mengbao, and also greatly reduce its own weight, which has laid an important foundation for the development of its automobile and aviation.
However, the racing competition has not yet started. The student's tricycle has withdrawn from the competition because his racing car exploded because he did not install any cooling equipment and only relied on the external environment to cool down. At the same time, he drove his racing car too fast. If you want to show off, the car will naturally explode
But his car and his name stayed in the paper
"Chen Tong and his racing car" and "Financial Express" conducted an exclusive interview with him and introduced his diesel internal combustion engine in detail. many
People are just talking about this report, just like the daily weather forecast. Sometimes the weather forecast can be predicted very accurately, but sometimes it is pure nonsense, especially what kind of temperature gauge. With the start of a large number of experiments, especially the air pressure experiment, some scientific researchers Thermometers have been developed but they call them thermometers
The emergence of the internal combustion engine has attracted the attention of relevant scientific researchers, especially the attention of the Tianjun. They urgently need a power plant smaller than the steam engine. The appearance of the internal combustion engine has undoubtedly provided them with support in this regard, so the Tianjun is very concerned about this project. technology is very concerned
You must know that at this time, Qin State does not have a newspaper or magazine that specializes in reporting science and technology and research results. In terms of academic exchanges, technical personnel only communicate internally. The abnormal dispersion of scientific and technological resources is very unfavorable to the scientific development of Qin State.
The racing car has introduced a new invention, which is good news, but now he can't take care of this new invention because he needs to negotiate with Li Mu
A few days after Li Mu arrived, he was received by Qin King Wei Liao and other important officials of the Qin State, which made it difficult to concentrate on checking other changes in the Qin State. However, he thinks it is better to be careful about the conditions proposed by Shang Wen.
"General, what we mean is very clear that our relationship is to hire your army to defeat the Huns in the north and the new ethnic minority mountain people we discovered." Shang Wen said while sitting on the other side of the negotiating table
A group of officials led by Li Mu, such as monk Wen and Wei Liao, sat at the desks in a classroom of the Army Military Academy. Di Lie? Disgusting┓Correction? Coke? Ping? Matte still Pai?
"Moving out the army is not a small matter, prime minister," said Li Mu. Li Mu still didn't understand what the other party was trying to do. Obviously, Li Mu was very cautious.
"General, the cold winter in the north is coming, which is not a good thing for you. Your treasury has no money and there is not much food. We have too much money and food. We don't need much. Our soldiers on the front line can just get it. Solve the logistics supply of the army in a timely manner. Our newly established state has established a lot of food factories. The shelf life of meat is enough for them to hoard a large amount of food. These are things you can't imagine." Shang Wen said slowly, Li Mu admitted that such a fact happened in Qin State And it is true that the strength of Qin State has far surpassed that of the Six Nations. Taking meat processing as an example, Li Mu saw that Qin State has a machine that can turn meat into puree as long as it is repeated once or twice. It is very thin, but in Zhao State, a large piece of meat requires many people to process it for several hours to complete the mechanical power, which made Li Mu see again that manpower is no longer comparable to mechanical power, and Qin State just mastered this kind of mechanical power. strength
"The population of Qin is not very large. Although we have stopped the war, the scale of population demand is still very large, especially in some labor positions, we lack a large number of personnel," Shang Wen said.
"Don't you have slaves? There are a large number of prisoners of war slaves," Li Mu emphasized.
"Prisoners of war and slaves cannot be trusted. I have ordered to encourage slaves from the north and the west to concentrate in Guanzhong and the south to concentrate on building a train and road network leading to Bashu. These people must leave their original homes." Shang Wen is very clear on this issue. The foundation of national culture is that if the land leaves the original land, their cultural civilization will become unstable, and their national stability will become very fragile, or they will be wiped out or assimilated by other civilizations. I don’t want to see this. A powerful civilization becomes Qin's neighbor
"Why do you want to do this?" Li Mu asked in confusion. The content of the negotiation is going off track. Li Mu intends to find out what the other party is trying to do.
"Like a potted flower" Shangwen made a very vivid metaphor
"Flower" Li Mu asked
"Yes" Shangwen replied
"A potted flower grows beautifully mainly because the soil in the pot provides a lot of nutrients for it to bloom through its own photosynthesis," Shang Wen said. Although Li Mu doesn't know what photosynthesis is, the metaphor is indeed very vivid. He already understands it. Why did Shangwen do this?
"If the flowerpot is removed, the flowers on it will lose nutrients. If he replaces it with another flowerpot, it will take time for him to adapt to such frequent replacement. The flowers will either die or become different," Shang Wen said.
"Then Zhao's army is like this or that?" Li Mu asked
"Just like that flower, move back and forth," Li Mu asked.
"No, we removed the original flower and planted our own seed," said Shang Wen
"In fact, you have no choice. Maybe we can change the way not to allow your army to let our people enter, or let your people freely participate. In short, you must solve the problem of feeding a large number of people. If you stay where you are, rely on Qin. It is impossible for the people of Qin to donate to the people of Zhao very little, only a few people participated and donated to your businessmen, and it is impossible for us to pay for your disasters, which is impossible and this is not a long-term solution. If you don’t do this, your people We will be in a big predicament, and we will be powerless at that time," Shang Wen said with a wave of his hand
