It's a car!

There was no doubt, although the truck in front of him seemed a little too simple, but for Zhu Yifeng, who had long been accustomed to seeing vehicles, he still recognized it at first sight, it was a car, a car that looked a little strange. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The reason why it looks a little strange is because his engine is on the driver's right side, and it looks a little similar to a MAZ heavy truck, but it is too rudimentary - his engine is simply covered by a steel cover, the cab is also open-topped, and it is too small compared to the MAZ machine monster.

But despite this, it is still a car, not to mention that just half an hour ago, this very rudimentary-looking "car" could run at a speed of at least 30 kilometers per hour.

This is indeed a car!

The car ...... Looking at it, it still seemed a little familiar, and after turning him around, he looked carefully, and a vague term in his memory appeared in Zhu Yifeng's mind.

M274 Robotic Mule!

This is a simple four-wheel drive flatbed car developed by the U.S. military during the Vietnam War, both of which look so simple, of course, compared to the "mechanical mule", since it does not have the function of four-wheel drive, it is not as complicated as it, it is an extremely simple car, and even the wheels, not inflatable wheels, but steel rim covered rubber wheels, similar to the wheels of horse-drawn carriages and gun carriages, but the size of its wheels seems to be smaller.

Although this car looks extremely simple, in the face of this car, especially the way it ran wildly on the test site before, Zhu Yifeng's whole person was still immersed in an inexplicable excitement. The reason why he is so excited is because he knows better than anyone what the car means, and the emergence of the car means that China will enter a new era from now on!

Its military significance is also extraordinary, the advent of the automobile made it possible for the army to fight away from the railway, no longer as in the past, when fighting, there will always be limited by the supply of materials - the military horse in the towing carriage needs a lot of fodder, the supply of fodder and the endurance of the horse seriously limit the effectiveness of the army, but now the advent of the automobile will change all this.

The invention of the automobile has accelerated the flow of people, materials and information, shortened the space distance, saved time, and accelerated the development of society, which is of milestone significance. It can be said that the invention of the automobile will set off a revolution, this revolution will not only change the transportation, but also change the industrial structure of a country, after all, the automobile industry has always been the leading industry in heavy industry, it will drive the development of metallurgy, metal processing and precision manufacturing, so as to promote the country's industrial development.

Of course, this is a long-term change, now for China, the emergence of automobiles will fundamentally change the traffic, especially the front-line traffic, material transportation no longer needs to rely on the railway, the massive use of automobiles can make road transport to some extent replace the railway, especially in the area where the railway is not built, the car can significantly reduce the cost of transportation, increase the volume of transportation, so as to ensure the combat needs of the army.

We must make every effort to promote the development of the automobile industry!

Zhu Yifeng's palm pressed the frame of the car, secretly paid attention in his heart, and then asked.

"It's called a robot car?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Wang Shoujing looked at His Majesty and replied a little nervously, he didn't expect such an "invention" to attract His Majesty's attention, and the head office even specially notified him to bring a car to the imperial capital.

"Robot car, machine car ......"

Saying the name, Zhu Yifeng pointed to the engine and said.

"If I'm not mistaken, this car has a petrol engine!"

The advent of the gasoline engine was a complete accident, and a few years ago, with the advancement of the reclamation of Borneo, in order to expand the colony of Borneo, first from the Englishman James ? Brooke spent 250,000 pounds to acquire the Kingdom of Sarawak under his control, and forced the Kingdom of Brunei to cede a large amount of land, and then, and reached a consensus with the Netherlands on the issue of Borneo, China obtained the entire Borneo, as compensation, the Netherlands received 1.2 million guilders in compensation, in the first year of Kaihong, it was found that the Borneo oil field began to exploit the oil field under the initiative of Zhu Yifeng, and drilled the first self-blowing well. However, the crude oil produced here contains very little kerosene, which is not suitable for refining kerosene for lamps.

But kerosene is the only use of oil - although electric light has been used in the cities, vegetable oil is still used for lighting in the vast countryside and colonies, and kerosene is undoubtedly a better fuel for lighting. However, because of its low kerosene content, the cost of its use is high, in order to reduce its use cost, the study of gasoline engine and diesel engine has become inevitable, so Zhu Yifeng will promote the development of two new engines, but limited by the scope of its use, although the research of the two engines is relatively smooth, but its application is extremely limited, and with the exploitation of Sarawak oilfield, the Borneo oilfield with low kerosene content has been temporarily abandoned for exploitation.

The use of gasoline engines and diesel engines is limited, resulting in the use of gasoline and diesel is also extremely limited, and even now in Guangzhou and other places there are hundreds of thousands of tons of "waste oil", those waste oil is actually gasoline and diesel, the fundamental reason why this problem has not been solved is because Zhu Yifeng did not think of cars at all, or rather, there was no demand for cars at that time, after all, compared with roads, Zhu Yifeng hopes to promote the construction of railways, rather than let cars grab the train market.

After all, compared with the mainland, the army that is now fighting overseas, whether it is in Myanmar or Australia, needs a large number of cars, where there are no trains for the army, and cars can make up for the lack of transportation capacity, so as to effectively ensure the operation.

"Yes, Your Majesty, it is a gasoline engine, after all, the diesel engine is too bulky......"

Wang Shoujing replied truthfully,

The diesel engine is too heavy and too large, this is because the scope of its application is different, the gasoline engine was developed for land application from the beginning, and it was later applied to airships, as for the diesel engine, its target is to point to ships and trains, of course, it seems a little bulky, and the most fundamental reason is probably the processing technology that leads to this differentiation,

In that case, let's call it a "car", just like a steam locomotive uses this name because it uses a steam engine, even if it uses a gasoline engine, it should be called a "car"! ”

The reason why he used the name "car" is because for Zhu Yifeng, he always hopes to leave some memories of that era in this era, just like the naming of the Gatling gun, and finally chose to name it after the name of its inventor "Gatling".

For Zhu Yifeng, who is in this world, sometimes, some names that belong to another time and space will always make him feel a little intimate, after all, this world has become unrecognizable, just like the current Africa and Borneo colonies, because of the large number of immigrants, the local place names have also undergone earth-shaking changes.

Although some colonial districts still retain the names of Central Africa, East Africa, West Africa, and so on, in addition to the geographical names of these colonial governorates, a special administrative division system is also implemented, that is, the establishment of overseas Chinese prefectures, overseas Chinese counties, and overseas Chinese counties. This is because of the large number of expatriates who have moved there, although most of them have been forcibly or semi-forcibly relocated to the colonies, and in order to win the hearts and minds of the people and resettle the expatriates, they have set up prefectures, counties, and counties of origin in the places where the displaced people have moved according to their original place of origin. Therefore, in the colony, there will be such geographical terms as South Guangzhou, West Guangzhou, South Xuzhou, West Xuzhou, etc., and the distinction of these Sinicized geographical terms is very simple, "West **" is often the name of the African colony, and "South **" is the name of the South Sea Colony and the Borneo Colony.

Now China's naming of colonies has fundamentally changed the geography of the world, and in the future it is even possible to rename the Australian colonies, and Australia will also be "sinicized" by then, and for Zhu Yifeng, who is the initiator, all this is unfamiliar.

Therefore, when this kind of world is becoming more and more strange, he hopes to be able to protect some memories that belong to the past, only in this way can he find more familiar feelings in this world, and not become more and more strange.

"Your Majesty Thank You, Weichen, for giving it a name!"

His Majesty's name made Wang Shoujing suddenly become excited, he knew that with His Majesty's name, it meant that this "car" would have an advantage over any other means of transportation - it was supported by His Majesty, but he did not expect that His Majesty's support was more than just a name.

"It's a good car, but it's still a bit imperfect, and there's a lot of room for improvement! Well, this machine factory of yours can be improved and can be used specifically for the production of cars, not only for the production of such trucks for pulling goods, but also for passenger cars and even cars......"

Although Zhu Yifeng does not know how to develop the automobile industry, he is no stranger to the types of automobiles, and of course he also knows some basic knowledge related to them.

"There is also this kind of tire can also be improved, you can learn from the pneumatic tire used on the bicycle, well, this requires a lot of rubber, this problem must be solved first......"

The development of the automobile industry requires a large amount of rubber, although as early as a few years ago, the Nanyang colony began to plant rubber, but the scale of rubber planting is limited, and its application has been limited, and now the establishment of the automobile industry is a good opportunity, looking at the car in front of him, Zhu Yifeng suddenly turned his face to Xu Shushan and asked.

"How's that research going?"

Finally, it's two watches!

Try to recover! I'm going to go back to the gravel in two days...... In the pain, I will take advantage of the past few days to recover the two watches, and I hope you can continue to support the speechless, thank you!
