Chapter 523 Can't be led by the nose by the enemy Standing next to the train tracks is indeed not a good place to chat, the roar of the steam engine and the light engine makes Quan Xu feel like a big head.Facing the passionate members of the House of Representatives, Quan Xu said lightly: "Five days later, let's hold a special public meeting to discuss this matter at the meeting!"
”Hearing Quan Xu's promise, the House of Representatives went back.Liaodong was originally a pilot, everyone has already seen the power of machinery, the industrial party in the ground of Liaodong, the influence is too great, the appearance of the steam engine train, immediately realized the huge role.Of course, what Quan Xu needs to explain to Sun Yuanhua is improvement."
This steam engine train needs to separate passengers and freight in the future!"
Jeon Wook took a pencil and drew on a drawing the interior of the train in later generations, but with a slight difference, it was changed to six seats per row, with a reserved aisle in the middle.The people of the Ming Dynasty are completely different from the people of later generations, most of the people in later generations are overnourished, and the obese population accounts for a large proportion, in the Ming Dynasty, the obese population is not even one percent, and the fat people like Chen Ying cannot be picked out among 10,000 people."
Remember the point, you must do a good job of sound insulation, this kind of train is so noisy, it can shake people to the ground!"
Jeon Xu drew the drawing and drew the living room.Then, Quanxu communicated with the senior technicians of the steam engine project on the diversification of the steam engine."
The steam engine is an engine, like the factories we build around the river, that can drive mills, machine tools, fans, drilling machines, looms, saws, and even ships!"
Quan Xu pointed to the steam engine and said: "In short, you find a way to develop the steam engine, as large as possible, miniaturization As for how to solve it, it will require your respective efforts, as long as you make the application of the steam engine, Benhou's commitment will never change, one percent of the sales profit, you can hold it for life!"
”With the success of the steam engine train experiment, the whole family army expanded the railway construction engineering unit of four brigades to be responsible for the construction of the project.Liaodong's standardized operation, has achieved gratifying results, reinforced concrete poured sleepers, instead of the original sleepers, sleepers have more advantages, but there is a disadvantage can not be reversed, even the best sleepers, the service life is only 15 years.In fact, it needs to be replaced in seven or eight years, and relatively speaking, it is more economical and affordable to use reinforced concrete as a sleeper.The first railway track in eastern Liaodong was from Lushun port to Jinzhou, although Lushun also became a district of Dalian in later generations, but the problem is that in this era, Jinzhou and Dalian are not comparable, of course, the distance is not close.The whole journey is about 130 miles.In later generations, if there was no traffic jam, it would be only forty minutes away, but in this era, if you walk, it basically takes a day, even a horse-drawn carriage takes more than half a day, and as for transporting goods, it is even slower.With the current imitation of the steam engine train, the maximum speed can reach 75 kilometers per hour, even if it runs at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour, it will take more than an hour to reach Golden State at most.Great convenience for the Golden State's transportation capacity.There are many people, then it needs to be easy to do, after a wave of Quanxu's big hand, the railway network of Liaodong has been realized on the drawings, the first is to Lushun Port, to Jinzhou, and then along Jinzhou to Haizhou, Gaizhou, Fuzhou Liaonan four states, and then Jinzhou, Guangning, to Shenyang.Think of the Iron Boss of the future......
However, the problem is that the ideal is very plump, the reality is too skinny, and fortunately he made a lot of money in Luzon, or I don't know, the iron boss didn't do it, and as a result, he owed a lot of debt.Just when Quan Xu was about to hold a steam engine meeting, Quan Gan arrived at the Wuwei Hou Mansion and came to Quan Xu's study."
I haven't seen you for a long time, and I'm getting more and more energetic!"
Quan Xu pointed to the chair and said, "Sit down!"
”Quan Gan and all the people under Quan Xu, the biggest feeling of following Quan Xu is that he is valued, unlike most nobles in this era, who are strictly respectful and inferior.Every word and deed, every move, is clear.Quan Xu is like entertaining his friends, there is no superior's shelf, and there is no deliberate manipulation.Quan Xu wrote the plan, but watched Quan Gan pick up the teacup, took a sip, and put down the teacup."
What's wrong, something happened!"
Quan Gan also went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and if nothing happened, he would definitely not look for himself.Quan Gan nodded slowly, put down the teacup, and said with a solemn expression, "Yes." ”The smile on Quan Xu's face disappeared and he asked, "What's wrong?"
”"Hou Ye sent troops to Kyushu, after the bloodbath in Kyushu, many Japanese Kyushu samurai took refuge in Zheng Zhilong, and now the strength under his command has skyrocketed......
"Zheng Chenggong's mother is the daughter of the Hirado Domain of Kyushu, Japan, and it is not strange that Kyushu samurai took refuge in him.Quan Xu looked at Quan Gan and asked, "Zheng Zhilong?"
Where is he now?
”"Deep in the mountains of Qiongzhou Mansion!"
Quan Gan thought for a while and said: "According to Xuan Yingwei's careful investigation, he and his brother Liu Xiang were brought together, and with the support of Liu Xiang, he recruited 8,000 Fujian soldiers, equipped with all standard firearms, and under the training of the Spaniards, he was rapidly forming an army!"
”"Haha, that's interesting!"
Quan Xu had long guessed that the Spaniards would not suffer a dumb loss, after all, Quan Xu recaptured Taiwan and Luzon from the Spaniards, which was simply cutting meat from the Spaniards.They must have no way to retaliate, the population restricts the tentacles of the Spaniards to the east, the Spaniards have no one, but Zheng Zhilong has people, and there are enough manpower, as long as he has food and money, he can recruit a large number of people.Quan Xu smiled: "The Spaniards are smart, and they actually want to fight a proxy war with me?"
It's so interesting!
”"Master Hou, if you don't know, let's take advantage of Zheng Zhilong's new army to train yet, we ......"
"Don't use it for the time being!"
Quan Gan was a little puzzled: "Once the Spaniards finish training Zheng Zhilong's troops, then it will inevitably increase the casualties of the soldiers!"
”Quan Xu did not answer his question directly, but said with a smile: "At the beginning of Zunhua City, Benhou obviously had the Great Wall to rely on, and he could rely on the war of attrition to consume Jiannu's grain, grass and equipment, and finally use the minimum cost to withdraw the army of Jiannu, and win a victory steadily, but Benhou resolutely gave up this advantage, attacked the enemy with his own short, and launched a field battle with Jiannu outside Zunhua City, and paid a heavy price of thousands of casualties in one battle!"
”"Under the door......
Now I finally understand!
”"Ben Hou just wants to use such a bloody victory to see clearly to those weak tribes who are attached to Jiannu that the Ming Dynasty is stronger than the slaves, and it is far more cost-effective to take refuge in the Ming Dynasty than to take refuge in the Jiannu!"
Quan Xu smiled faintly: "In the same way, Ben Hou is also drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle, breaking the illusions of the Spaniards in one fell swoop."
The Spaniards have money, artillery, and muskets, but they only lack the population, and we have now received information that we can take advantage of the fact that the army trained by the Spaniards is not completed, and launch an attack, but the key is that the Spaniards will definitely not give up this strategy, but continue to work hard in this area, and it will be a protracted war of attrition in the future, and it is our Ming people who die!
”The rule of the colony, to put it bluntly, is force, and without the deterrence of force, there is no use for fart.The Dutch's provocation of Spain, the suzerain, was also the beginning of a little temptation.The initial suppression of Spain's overseas colonies could force Spain to disperse its financial and military resources to suppress Dutch independence.With the rise of the whole family army, as the whole family army aimed the main spearhead at the Spaniards, the Dutch, although they suffered heavy losses in front of the whole family army, losing most of the Far Eastern Combined Fleet, as well as five or six thousand troops, did not retaliate, but hoped that they could use the whole family army to attract the fire of the Spaniards.Just like now, Zheng Zhilong accepted the support of the Spaniards in Qiongzhou Mansion and secretly trained his troops, and this information was actually deliberately revealed to Xuan Yingwei by the Dutch.Otherwise, it would not be easy for Xuanying Wei to get this information.Quan Xu can't be beaten passively, if Zheng Zhilong wants to make a move, the most likely place is Taiwan, but his old department has been brought to Japan, raising the iron fist of Ming imperialism in Kyushu and smashing it into the Kyushu domain.Helena knew about the steam train in Liaodong, and she also excitedly boarded the steam train and experienced the speed and passion of a steam train.Saraño looked at the steam engine and was stunned, and Antonio, who was also an instructor at the Liaoning South Naval Military Academy, patted Saraño on the shoulder: "Hey, Saraño, what are you thinking now?"
”Saraño said with some concern: "The behemoth of China will soon be rejuvenated, and they can easily tear the whole world to pieces!"
”Antonio shrugged: "Your concerns are justified, but what does this have to do with us?"
We are all Chinese now!
”Saraño smiled dumbly: "That's right, you are now Anton, not Antonio!"
”Like Antonio, he joined the household registration of Daming and became a Daming person, so he asked Princess Helena to bring his family to Daming.The Republic of Venice City-State, the Ming Dynasty is only an ordinary city, and even far less than one-tenth of the population of the Golden State.How could such a small country withstand the Ottoman attack?
He has become Chinese, will China tear the world to pieces, and what does it have to do with them?
Antonio is right that these worries are unnecessary.He just pretended not to see the huge shipyard at Port Arthur, with eight large dockyards, and the construction of warships and transports was in full swing every day.When the whole family of naval soldiers did not even fully understand the Sea Shark 2 warship, the Sea Shark 3, the 8 Sea Shark 3, and the 16 6,000 Flying Fish 4 warships also began to prepare for the acceptance of the navy.With the current strength of the entire family navy, the Far East Combined Fleet of the Dutch East India Company was far from an opponent even in its heyday.
