2366 Submarine Cable Experiment

Qi Binhai District, Tian Heng's office two-story building. In the Qi Kingdom www.biquge.info the two-story building has become a status symbol, and the previous huge courtyard style has begun to decline.

"Goguryeo?" Tian Heng asked strangely.

"Yes, the Goguryeos, they are here to buy arms and supplies, but they seem to have something to discuss with us, and I am worried." Lou Jing said worriedly.

"Worried about what?" Tian Heng asked at this time.

"I've heard it before. They collected a large number of newspapers, and from the newspapers, they got the situation of the Qin State on the battlefield in Liaodong, and the Qin reporters reported in detail on the course of the war in the newspapers, and basically, the war was almost exposed. Lou Jing said to Tian Heng. For such reports. Lou Jing thinks it's too undeserved.

"What do they want to do?" Tian Heng asked at this time. He sensed that something was not quite right with the Goguryeo people.

"My guess may be that the Goguryeo people need us to adjust, or that they may need to let us do something for them." Lou Jing hinted.

"Well, do you make that clear?" Tian Heng asked.

"I am worried that the current occupation of Liaodong is very unfavorable to the Goguryeo people, and the recent newspaper reported the news that the air forces of the Qin State had set fire to the forests of Liaodong on a large scale. In such a situation, the Goguryeo people are bound to take a backward approach to solve the problem. However, the Qin army cut off the Goguryeo retreat from the flanks. I think the Goguryeo people may have no choice. They want our help to make peace with the war, or at least to keep their large number of soldiers. Lou Jing guessed.

"Hmm." Tian Heng nodded. He also quickly pondered this matter in his mind, for this possibility. Tian Heng thinks it's very likely.

"What do you think if something like this happens?" Tian Heng asked.

"If something like this really happens. Unless the alignment country has a lot of potential for development. Otherwise, our Qi country will definitely not be able to agree. Lou Jingquan said.

"Hmm." Tian Heng nodded.

"I read in the newspaper that the banks invested by Yan Guo, Zhao Guo, South Korea, and Qin Guoren hit Liaodong this time, mainly for iron ore. Coal, Zhao state-owned, as long as a railway, can be completed. In this way, the mining of iron ore will be greatly accelerated. Iron smelting is also very mature. Tian Heng said with some concern.

"And in our Qi country, there is no such a large iron ore mining area, not only that, but the coal has not been excavated, although we have found a lot of prospecting experts in the Qin country, and we have spent a lot of money, but there is really not much coal to find. In the foreseeable future, the demand for iron ore and steel will inevitably increase, and the development of Qi will also require a large amount of steel. We can't always rely on imports, right? Tian Heng said in embarrassment.

"Hmm. That's true. Lou Jing nodded.

"If these minerals can be found in the area controlled by the Goguryeo people, it will still be very convenient for us to occupy the place occupied by the Qi country and the Goguryeo people." Tian Heng said.

"Our shipyards are building large ships and the capacity to transport cargo is increasing rapidly. With the sea, it is much more convenient than the railway. Tian Heng saw this in the long run.

"In this case, the Goguryeo thing, do we really want to do this?" Lou Jing asked.

"Hmm. Of course. Tian Heng nodded and admitted.

"If you find a lot of iron ore, you have to do it." Tian Heng said.

Right on the shore of the marina. South Koreans are doing a whole new kind of experiment.

"What are these ropes for?" Captain Zhang Dahu asked puzzled. Because his ships were requisitioned. Despite the fact that the daily pay is good. But he still thinks it's better to go to Nanyang to make a fortune. Although the risk is very high, far less safe than here, the sense of risk in his bones is still relatively strong.

"What rope? These are cables. It's the telegraph line. Han Youcai explained. He is the executor of this project. He is a university student and a researcher. His teacher came from this major at Qinguo University.

"We're going to lay cables on the bottom of the sea. In this way, we will be able to receive telegrams overseas, much faster. Han Youcai excitedly introduced.

"Oh, that's good. In that case, it will be very useful. Zhang Dahu said with a smile.

"Our ships don't have to worry about communications." Zhang Dahu obviously misunderstood.

"Well, not yet, if you follow the way you sail, you should have more cables on your ships. That's not going to work. Han Youcai explained.

"At the moment, this project has only been launched for a short time, and we are only in the experimental stage. If we do it well, we can lay larger cables, which is called. Yes, submarine cables. Han Youcai explained excitedly.

"Hmm. I don't know what a submarine cable is. But I know that you are all capable of this. What you do is what we need most. Zhang Dahu said.

"Thank you. I'm too embarrassed to say anything. Han Youcai said with a smile. With that, he began to direct his men to set up the cables. The first thing they had to do was to experiment with a short distance, which was only the distance from a nearby island to the coastal area, and the distance was about thirty miles. It's not too far, but it makes a lot of sense. Because this is the first time that a submarine cable has been laid in South Korea. If possible, they are going to lay submarine cables on a large scale, so that they can quickly carry out research on this. In addition, the islands were shortened and the connection between the South Seas was strengthened. It can be said that this is a very strategic technology, and this technology will bring revolutionary prospects to South Korea.

In this regard, Han Youcai is very confident and very proud. This project was favored by Han Shu, and special support was given in terms of funds and personnel transfers. As well as in terms of material resources, unprecedented support, in order to manufacture these cables, they also specially imported professional equipment from Qin, and conducted special training for personnel, for which more Korean companies participated in it, in order to process this cable copper wire. You must know that the price of copper is not cheap, and if it were a normal project, they would not have received so much financial support. But right now, everything is going on, and this is a very important project, and this technology is very important for South Korea. It is also a project of special interest to the Queen.
