Chapter Ninety-Two: The Steam Engine
Since Xiao Mingwei led the people to empty the box of treasure in the prisoner camp, the prisoner camp began to cry wolf howl, and the blind officers tried to block the car with their mantis arms, but they were quickly crushed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info joke, being beaten by hundreds of sailors naturally has only one ending, either death or serious injury. If he usually had a good relationship with the sailors, he hurriedly mingled with the masses, and even a navigator who directly led a small group of seventy or eighty sailors to openly shout the slogan "Down with the privileged class that oppresses the sailors."
Yang Minghuan couldn't help but smile wryly and looked at the various wonderful performances in the prisoner camp in the past few days, where there was a criticism meeting every day, and every day there were new people on the high platform in the middle who were wearing pointed hats and wearing signs around their necks to do jet poses. New banners were hung every day, and at first it was still the language of the Maidno people, and I couldn't understand it. Slowly, after a few days, what began to appear above was Chinese, what "Down with the Powerful", "Eliminate Oppression", "Everyone is Equal", "Labor is Glorious", "Labor is Rewarding"...... When the words "Turn over slaves and belong" were printed on a red banner today, Yang Minghuan's jaw almost fell.
"This is what our people are tossing in there, right?" Yang Minghuan behind the desk couldn't help but ask Du Yande with a wry smile.
Du Yande glanced at the banner in the prisoner camp and smiled sullenly, "No, this is their spontaneous action." ”
"Spontaneous?" Yang Minghuan shook his head, "Do you think I'll believe it?" Even if this is Chinese, even if it is Chinese Simplified, even if our cultural courses are taught quickly, it is impossible for these scum on the sea to learn so quickly, right? ”
Zhang Yuan on the side laughed, "I'll just say that it's a hundred secrets." ”
Du Yande was speechless, "This is my approval, if you let these sailors engage in class struggle, it is simply impossible, they come forward to beat these officers to death, it is no problem for them to fight them, so they have to mix sand in the sailors." You have to know that these sailors come from everywhere, so there is no problem at all with our people getting in. ”
"Is it necessary to make it so big?" Yang Minghuan was a little strange, "Don't you want to use these senior crew members?" Isn't this forcing them to go far away? How much can we get, sailors? A captured battleship only needs a maximum of four or five hundred sailors, right? ”
"First, the sailors of this plane are definitely scum, maybe some of them have been kidnapped, but they don't live long, and those who can survive must be scum. Let these scum join us at no cost? I don't trust them. Du Yande raised a finger, "Let them kill two of their superiors, even if they want to turn back, they have no way to run, they can only follow us." ”
"I understand what you mean, but this" Yang Minghuan couldn't help but point to the banner outside that said "Turn over slaves and belong", "This banner also costs a lot of money, right?" ”
At this time, several activists rushed to the stage and kicked one of the jets off the high platform, while the angry crowd below rushed forward and punched and kicked them. "What if these people slowly win over people's hearts and become a big family?"
Du Yande chuckled lightly and pointed at the activists outside, "These are the things that our newly formed intelligence agency personnel did under our instructions, and their loyalty to our Senate has been examined and assessed. Also, do you think those guys in top hats are really officers? ”
Zhang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked around, there were quite a few guys in tattered sailor suits in this row of tall hats, obviously just ordinary sailors. "What's going on?"
"Quite simply, we will not let those who endanger or may endanger the dominance of the Senate become dominant, as long as they begin to show signs of wanting to pull the mountain, our people inside will report to us, and after passing our approval, they will be pulled off the horse and put on a hat and criticized, and if they don't die, they will be sent directly to the labor camp."
"It's not ...... Fight landlords? Yang Minghuan was quite speechless.
"That's it...... Haha," Du Yande smiled, "This is the beginning of fighting local tyrants, three antis, five antis, and four cleanups." ”
"Can it be like this at the beginning? If it's really such a fuss, those officers have to hang up? Zhang Yuan was a little dumbfounded on the side.
Du Yande shook his head, "This is the second thing, the senior crew also has a rank, we have made a list through the interrogation of the senior crew and some prestigious sailors, and through the intelligence agency's internal intelligence to collect the information inside, and the most ruthless ones are only those who are more angry with the people, or they are descendants who have no skills." Those special skills that needed to be retained and a few captains were just going through the motions at this time, accompanying the prince to study on the high platform. ”
"So they'll be obedient?" Yang Minghuan couldn't help but ask rhetorically.
"Not now," Du Yande shook his head again, "If they want to be obedient, they will have to wait until the transformation is completed." ”
At that moment, a group of sailors shouted with signs that they had gotten out of nowhere, and then quarreled with another group of sailors in the field, both of whom seemed to be claiming what they were.
Yang Minghuan couldn't help but lean to the window curiously, both sides regarded themselves as "revolutionary liberation factions" and "defenders of Yang Minghuan's thoughts", and Yang Minghuan was scorched on the inside and outside, "I go, where do I have any thoughts?" I say how did they come up with the word? Went too far, right? ”
"Well, they're free to play, right?" Du Yande was also thunderous, but looking at Xiao Mingwei sitting there proudly on the stage, he didn't have to think that it must be his masterpiece. The only thing he was depressed about was, why didn't he talk about Du Yande's thoughts?
"This is too much, let Lao Xiao speed up and put the prisoners into use as soon as possible, it's not a matter of always providing food and shelter like this." Although Yang Minghuan was thundered a lot at this time, this Yang Minghuan thought did make him feel a trace of secret joy in his heart, and he could actually put his name in front of his thoughts one day......
"Don't worry, the navy first needs to modernize the captured battleship, given that the steam engine is still a ......dream at this time," Du Yande glanced at Zhang Yuan, who was still chuckling lightly, "So the armament on the ship needs to be modified." As for the power system, wind power is used first. ”
"Don't worry! What do you think I'm here for? Zhang Yuan hurriedly interrupted Du Yande's speech, "The steam engine problem is solved!" Said with a spring breeze on his face.
Du Yande was stunned for a moment, "The steam engine problem is solved?" ”
"Yes, it's solved, now don't talk about flash boilers, even ordinary boilers can drive steam engines." Zhang Yuan said quite proudly.
"Didn't you say the pressure pipes couldn't work?" Yang Minghuan was surprised, the obstacle of the steam engine part has always been the pressure pipeline, and now he suddenly said that it was done, "Is it already possible to produce seamless steel pipes by itself?" He was happy in his heart, the seamless steel pipe was not made by any factory even in China in the old time and space, and the current army 1628 rifle and ship-based machine gun were all made with the seamless steel pipe brought by the old time and space. If it was possible to produce seamless steel pipes by himself, he suddenly remembered the factory logo of "Laiyang Seamless Steel Pipe Factory" on the body of the homemade rockets used by the Libyan rebels in the old time and space.
"yes, I haven't done it yet." Zhang Yuan said indifferently. Du Yande was putting the teacup to his mouth, but he was made to squirt tea by this sentence. "Then how do you get the boiler gas?"
"It's very simple, shorten the steam pipe, come out of the boiler and go directly to the steam engine, and you're done." Zhang Yuan said proudly. "If the problem can't be solved, we can just bypass him. Anyway, now it's just a matter of solving the problem of what is or isn't there, not about pursuing perfection. ”
"Okay...... Yang Minghuan was quite speechless, but this can be regarded as solving the bottleneck of the prime mover, "So how big is this steam engine?" ”
"It's only a few tons, and you can just tow it around with a forklift. Yuan Zhenli has now installed this new steam engine on the train, and after trying it, the train can drag twenty tons of things at a speed of eight kilometers per hour. ”
"Eight kilometers?" Du Yande complained, "Any of our trucks can surpass this train." ”
"But it's a miracle on this plane, you can't deny it." Zhang Yuan puffed up, "I urged when I didn't have it, and now I have to find me better, by the way, there is also news, this steam engine has not been welded from the boiler to the pipes, and it is all riveted with rivets." At this, a smug look appeared on his face again.
"No welding? Why not weld? Yang Minghuan was stunned for a moment.
"There are no more welding rods." Zhang Yuan spread his hands, "The welding rods we brought have already reached the minimum warning value, and now there is no way to replenish these welding rods, unless they are homemade." ”
"Can't control yourself?" Du Yande couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
Zhang Yuan shrugged, "There are many formulas for welding rods according to the route used, but they are generally minerals, such as mineral powders such as marble fluorite, and then used binders to attach to ferroalloys. The biggest problem we encountered was that we couldn't find marble here for the time being, and even if we found marble, we had to slowly adjust the formula to make it, and we couldn't expect too much in the short term, so we used riveting when we developed the steam engine. ”
"Meow, it's the same as the Great Leap Forward period." Du Yande couldn't help but be a little speechless.
"By the way, where did Lao Du say just now?"
"Oh, by the way, the Navy wants to convert ships, there are several problems. The first, of course, is power, given that by this time the heavy industry sector could already supply steam engines, then I would have my comrades in the naval department go to you. Du Yande said to Zhang Yuannu. secondly, the Navy demanded the creation of a five-thousand-ton dock near Yancun, and if possible, it would be better to build two, which could be converted for two captured ships at the same time; Thirdly, the port authorities requested the salvage of a Meedno battleship sunk in the port, and since the hull of the ship seemed to be quite intact when it sank according to sonar detection, the Navy also wanted to be able to directly salvage the warship for repair and return to service. ”
"Can't you get on the slipway?" Yang Minghuan asked weakly.
Zhang Yuandu, who was on the side at this time, smiled, "I heard that this ship has a displacement of 3,600 tons, and it is impossible to get on the slipway, and the only way is to enter the dry dock." ”
