In addition to these relatively formal educations, Xu Lie also engaged in some other activities to pass away the excess energy of these guys. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The first is the "Tactical Salon," which is presided over by personnel sent by the General Staff Department, sometimes holding some tactical lectures and sometimes conducting tactical discussions on wars in history.

The second is the "interest group", which is mainly carried out on the rest days of officers and soldiers, and what kind of interest group can be used, and all kinds of interest groups can be used, such as "reading groups", amateur reading competitions, discussions, and so on; For example, the "mechanical group" is an amateur group that learns, researches, or goes to the factory to operate in the field.

Xu Lie: This is squeezing the surplus value of officers and soldiers! Yes, Xu Lie just wants to squeeze them! At the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century, workers all over the world still worked more than 10 hours, and even more than 14 hours for workers in the Dragon Kingdom.

It is conceivable that the junior high school students of the original time and space have the right to rest? Some people say that the third year of high school cannot last! Wrong, the reason why the third year of high school is not sustainable is because people of other ages are quite relaxed, especially college students, it was the most relaxed era in history, and the good years were spent sleeping, skipping classes, gaming, and surfing the Internet.

If we are in an era when 80 percent of the people do not have enough to eat and do not cover their bodies, there is a place where although the training hours are a little longer every day and the requirements are a little more, but the officials are very kind, do not beat or scold people, are full of white rice or big steamed buns every day, and have at least a big bowl of meat and vegetables a day, as for clothes, it is even more underwear inside, outer clothes outside, single clothes and more cotton in summer, and training uniforms during training and combat, would you like to go to that place?

As for those strict requirements, didn't the commander say, "Sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime!" ”

So why study culture? The commander also said: "An army without culture is a stupid army; And a stupid army cannot defeat the enemy! ”

Moreover, most of the soldiers who opposed or were unwilling to participate in the evening study of culture were ridiculed by other officers and soldiers: Nima, tell you to learn culture and understand reason, so as not to be "blind", is it for your good, for the good of your ancestors and ancestors, you still have opinions, you are a pig? A pig is a little smarter than you, right?!

For the Maomeng Mountain Army, they can study for two hours at night, and other troops, including the heroic army of the original time and space, can't either? For one reason, they don't have the conditions. A soldier is in a hungry state and does not devote his energy to fighting or training, but also to learn culture? Don't say anything else, learn culture at night and use Shenma lighting?

Only a shameless traveler like Xu Lie, a cheater who borrows time and space, can do such an "unprecedented" thing.

Speaking of lighting, soon after Xu Lie occupied Mengyin, he decided to get something decent in this time and space: the Quhe Hydropower Station.

Qu River, a river that flows through the foot of Baoqi Mountain, is one of the big rivers in Mengyin. The Quhe River originates in the depths of Mengshan Mountain, twists and turns in Mengyin for dozens of kilometers, and finally flows to the direction of Yinan.

The Quhe River in Mengyin has abundant water and a large drop, which is more suitable for the establishment of small hydropower stations.

For the investigation of the Qu River, Xu Lie began soon after the crossing. Building a hydropower station is also a thought in his heart. However, including Yang Reform, they all felt that Xu Lie wanted to build a hydropower station, and he had to "slow down", because in the original time and space, it was difficult to find power facilities in the late nineteenth or early twentieth century, and only went to some very backward motor or machinery factories to customize, and this not only takes time, but also needs "reason"!

Nima has nothing to do with customizing such backward things, why do you have new technologies for Mao now? Of course, customers can ignore such doubts, but it is always better to say a valid reason.

Fortunately, at this time, Yang Reform had registered a regular company in Somalia, and the facilities of the hydropower station were ordered in the territory of the Dragon Kingdom, so this reason is easy to find, a foreign rich man, who made his fortune from electricity in his early years, now wants to build an electric power museum, this museum, needs to build a small hydropower station to supply electricity.

Of course, the power supply equipment that is matched with the power generation equipment of the hydropower station is also included in the procurement of Yang Reform, and the quantity of these purchases is not very large, although it is slightly larger than the amount of a museum, but if you take into account the backup situation, this amount is also reasonable.

Long's domestic enterprises, seeing that the production of such backward antique motors, can also earn foreign exchange rice gold, Nimana is of course very happy, and it has become a green light all the way.

Considering the secrecy of the new time and space, Xu Lie asked the motor manufacturer to imitate the hydro-generator set of Siemens Rheinland.

According to the flow of the Quhe River, the topography and topography, Xu Lie decided to build a cascade (four-level) power station and install four generator sets, the power of these four generator sets from upstream to downstream is 240 kilowatts, 240 kilowatts, 240 kilowatts, and 360 kilowatts respectively. The total installed capacity is 1080 kW.

Don't think that this power generation is only enough to power one or two elevator apartments in the original time and space, and its power generation is too small. In the new time and space, there are no so-called household appliances for the time being. Electricity, in addition to lighting, is power. But even so, electricity is the most urgent need in Mengyin.

Previously, because of the needs of the war, Xu Lie brought some high-tech strong light flashlights, but in the end, these strong light means were only "short-lived", and Xu Lie confiscated them all for reasons of secrecy. Of course, for the needs of the cloudy lighting and the marching of the troops, Xu Lie also found an alternative light source, which is the famous gas lamp and horse lamp.

The gas lamp is made of kerosene inflated and asbestos lamp cannon, and the external lampshade is used, and the lighting effect is very obvious; The horse lantern can be carried to walk in the wind and rain, and can also be hung on a walking horse, hence the name.

Obviously, these two lighting methods made Xu Lie quite dissatisfied.

However, in Xu Lie's hydropower station plan, the purchase of machinery and equipment from the original time and space is only one of the conditions, and finding people who understand the construction of the hydropower station from the new time and space, including the follow-up power generation technology and management, is a more important condition.

In the past few months, Lu Xiang has found some craftsmen for Xu Lie, including craftsmen who are prospecting for ore and smelting iron, and there are more than a dozen people. However, because there were no hydropower facilities in the Dragon Kingdom at this time, and the construction of the Shilongba Hydropower Station, the first hydropower station in the Dragon Kingdom, did not begin until 1910, it was necessary to find hydropower skilled workers or craftsmen in the Dragon Kingdom at this time, which was completely equivalent to zero, and no matter how much money was spent, there was no way to pay a high salary.

Perhaps, at this time, there were also people from the Dragon Kingdom who learned about electricity or hydropower abroad, but where such people were hidden was not something that Xu Lie, a person with the name of a bandit, could know.

There are no craftsmen who build hydropower stations, but there is no shortage of craftsmen in water conservancy in the Dragon Kingdom, Mengyin belongs to the mountainous area, many places need to build canals to divert water, many rivers also need to build dams to store water, and the processing units that use water to push stone or steel machines to grind noodles and grind rice have been greatly done.

Therefore, Xu Lie's trick is to be flexible and "local law"!
