The roar of the turning of the electric machinery resounded through the machine factory.

Xiao Ming looked through the glass window of the Research Division at the workshop that was assembling all kinds of machinery in full swing, and after Lin Wentao's words were finished, he said: "Since the technology of the internal combustion engine has been thoroughly understood, this matter can be left to others in the Research Division to develop, and now you have a more important matter." ”

"Your Majesty, please." Lin Wentao vaguely guessed something.

"Steam turbines!" Xiao Ming Zhengse said that the emergence of electricity is certainly a huge progress in technology, but the steam engine has not been eliminated in modern times, and the technology is becoming more and more perfect, which is the source of power in the era of thermal power plants and artillery giant ships.

This is a kind of rotating power machine that converts the energy of steam into mechanical work, and the most important thing is that it is used as a prime mover for power generation, and can also directly drive the propeller of the ship.

And if you want the era of cannon giant ships to come, you have to have this thing, because the three-expansion steam engine can no longer meet the power needs of ironclad ships.

Lin Wentao nodded heavily, as he mastered more knowledge, now he is no longer interested in shallow technology, because looking back now, the previous technology is like a child's play.

So he said: "There is no problem with this, the lower official has been waiting for a long time." ”

Nodding with satisfaction, Xiao Ming discussed the technical problems with everyone for a while, and then he and Qian Dafu went to inspect the inside of the machinery factory.

Before you know it, the advent of electricity has changed the guns of the factories in Qingzhou, as evidenced by the electrically driven lathes in the machinery factory.

Although the function of the lathe remains the same, the stability of the lathe is greatly enhanced by the stability of the motor.

Looking at these roaring machinery, Xiao Ming showed a satisfied look, in fact, the power transformation of the entire machinery factory was completed independently by Lin Wentao's research department, he just asked occasionally, after all, more than ten years of education have brought together a large number of talents in Qingzhou.

Sometimes it only takes him a command to do something, and these people with the expertise make it happen.

And what he needs to focus on is only the most cutting-edge technology, and it is enough to hand over the corners to the graduating students.

Leaving the machinery factory, Xiao Ming and Qian Dafu went back along the cement avenue in the industrial area, and when they arrived at the city gate, the crowded traffic blocked the road into the city.

Frowning, he said: "This city wall used to be a barrier to protect the city, but now it has become an obstacle to block the flow of goods, Dafu, you will go to the cabinet later, and let Pang Yukun tear down the unnecessary city wall according to the plan." ”

"Your Majesty, is it really going to be demolished?" Qian Dafu was a little worried, "barbarian ......"

"Barbarians will soon be history." Xiao Ming's eyes were firm, at the same time as the war in Australia, the war on the grassland did not stop, according to the war report, now Qi Guangyi has already marched to the Golden Horde after cleaning up the tribes on the periphery of the Golden Horde.

……

In the vast grassland, the lancers led by Qi Guangyi were roasting cattle and sheep in front of the bonfire, and these livestock were the trophies of their extermination of the tribe.

After receiving an order from the General Staff a month earlier, they marched towards the steppe, and in the battle of the three tribes they basically annihilated the main force of the barbarian cavalry, and now the Golden Horde was nothing more than an old man in the twilight.

As he thought, the barbarian tribe basically lost the tribe's cavalry, and they attacked all the way to basically no resistance, and the barbarian tribe chose to surrender when they saw them.

"Commander, General Niu Ben is really a god, the massacre in Raozhou last time really worked, and now the barbarian tribe sees us like a rabbit sees a wolf." Shi Fengdongjin, commander of the Northwest Military Region, said loudly.

Qi Guangyi took a leg of mutton and gnawed it with taste, he said: "General Niu has been fighting with the barbarians for many years to understand the nature of the barbarians, and we must treat this barbaric race in an even more brutal way than them, otherwise they will only regard our kindness as weakness." ”

"The commander's words are too right, and it doesn't work with what etiquette they educate, they only know the butcher's knife." A division commander chimed in.

Everyone was laughing, and at this time, a chaser came to Qi Guangyi from afar, got off his horse, and the chasper said; "Commander, when we were scouting, we encountered a group of barbarian cavalry, and the general at the head asked to see you."

"Oh?" Qi Guangyi's eyes rolled, and he said, "Where are they?" ”

"It's on the hill ahead." The chasers pointed to the emerald green hills in front of them, which were the Tianshan Mountains, the holy land of the barbarians.

Qi Guangyi stood up at this time, and he said: "If they are sincere, let them come over to talk, if they are not sincere, let them leave." ”

Now that the trend of strength and weakness has changed, Qi Guangyi's attitude has gradually hardened.

In response, the chasers galloped away in the direction of the Tianshan Mountains.

Feng Dongjin glanced in the direction of Tianshan Mountain and said; "What the hell is this barbarian trying to do?"

"Intrigues and tricks are nothing more than a piece of paper in the face of absolute strength, and since they are here, it doesn't hurt to listen to what they have to say." Qi Guangyi said lightly.

Hearing this, everyone nodded, and after waiting for a while, the chasseurs led a group of twenty barbarian cavalry to the place where the lancers were temporarily resting.

After searching and unloading all the weapons on his body, Qi Guangyi saw the comer.

"Dear General Qi, my name is Gubat, and I am honored to meet you." Bowing to Qi Guangyi, Guate showed a humble expression.

"Gubart? The name may seem familiar, you wouldn't be the same Gurat who led the soldiers in the attack on Yaxa. Qi Guangyi's expression suddenly became stern.

Embarrassed, he said, "Exactly, but all this fault is due to the odious Dolgo, who forced me to do it." ”

Qi Guangyi frowned, "Then what do you want to get when you meet privately?" ”

Gurat sighed in his heart, and he said: "I know the westward migration of the Golden Horde, and I have the ability to serve as your internal response, but I hope that after the deed is completed, I can let my tribe live on this grassland as the people of the Great Yu Kingdom." ”

"I can't grant you this request, this matter must be played to the Holy One." Qi Guangyi said that after exterminating the tribes in the east of the Tianshan Mountains, he had been looking for the location of the Golden Horde, but the Barbarian Golden Horde had been moving and could not determine the specific location.

Now Gurat has come out of nowhere, which gives them the opportunity to destroy the Golden Horde.

"In that case, please General Qi tell Your Majesty my request, and you still have a chance before Dolgo arrives in St. Petersburg."
