Steam lasted for a thousand years, in this world where scientific exchanges were separated by feudalism, science and technology developed independently in small circles, and the family of mechanical controllers who controlled the industrial technology of this world. Each family has mastered some science and technology with its own characteristics.

What is the Gunflame family's unique tech tree? Of course, it is a remote-controlled technology tree represented by guided rockets, although in this travel exchange, Binghe broke through his own small circle and actively learned and understood, but Gun Flame Binghe is a good boy who does not forget his roots.

In the machine factory, Binghe cast the shells and engine parts of the projectile, and used mimicry catalysis to prepare the chemical fuel for the rocket. And on the control system, even a rough gyroscope system was polished.Once again, Binghe embodies minimalism. Diodes were not made, and silicon semiconductor technology was not used, but electrolytic integrator technology was used. The principle is very simple, a reversible battery structure, which completes potential recording and has a certain data calculation and processing ability.

Note: The early control technology of the DF missile series is very, very old for people in the 21st century, and many people have never heard of it.

Although the mechanical controller analyzes the alchemy to make chips, it is a very troublesome thing for the mechanical controller, and the specific degree of trouble is equivalent to the trouble of copying ten copies of the winter vacation homework.

At most, a mechanic will only get chips for his mechanical bird. And the price of a mechanical bird is thousands of silver coins.

And simple technology means no man-hours are wasted.

On this night when the stars were sparse, when Lan Tao Chengtou was talking about things with the nobles at the banquet, Binghe started his second kick test. The tail of the rocket flew into the sky with flames, and the trajectory of the missile was basically stable

Sitting in front of a radio device, Binghe opened up his own field, and the bundle-like field sent out the radio equipment's telecommunication signals. Under the dual action of the warhead's internal control system and external remote control, these warheads did not go Brown's trajectory. (Note: Even if such a large missile has an external remote control system, it must have good internal control.) Otherwise, the external remote control cannot be controlled at all. ）

The domain of the core = large telecommunication transmission tower + ground observation base station, although magic can also emit electromagnetic wave signals. But most professionals' magic can only transmit hundreds of meters, just like WiFi and wireless walkie-talkies, there is no signal dozens of meters away.

Under the remote control of the radio, the missile adjusted its attitude under the change of the tail plate, and crossed a perfect arc in the sky, this arc is very high, but the horizontal distance of the abscissa is not far.

The magnesium-light system in the glass compartment of the warhead is scheduled to burn during launch. This flash, which seemed unclear to everyone at the banquet, was an important basis for the recording of ballistic data.

On the roof of the factory, Binghe holds his own small notebook and records himself, while beside Binghe, the light of the field is refracted and projects the outline of the map of the surrounding land in a 60-kilometer direction onto a white sheet of paper that unfolds horizontally and vertically.

The optical map around Binghe is a surface, and on this surface are suspended a number of geometric lines optical rulers, as well as high parabolic light bars perpendicular to the map, which is like the advanced light projection phenomenon of the 22nd century.

A few minutes later, when the ice floe peso climbed to the top of the building, Binghe quickly swept his hand to withdraw the projection next to him.

Facing a questioning attitude, Peso Binghe raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Biso thought that Binghe was in a naughty state, but when he climbed to the top of the building, he saw Binghe's calm and serious face, and Biso lost his mind for a while, almost forgetting the reason why he hurriedly climbed up.

However, after a few seconds, he took a deep breath and asked, "What were you just doing?" ”

Binghe smiled, raised the notebook in his hand, and said with a smile: "Watch the fireworks." Binghe didn't seem to know what he had done.

Day 2.

Outside the factory, a team of knights arrived at the factory. After jumping off his horse, Guntenkar politely handed over the invitation to visit.

Although the knights around him thought it was unnecessary, the knights persuaded Guntenkar to go inside. But the Oakley Chosen One showed his aristocratic demeanor to the fullest.

After a while, the large iron door of the factory slowly opened, and Bing He, dressed in a light blue canvas suit, greeted Carl.

Binghe: "Qunteng Shizi, I am very surprised, and I am also very surprised by your visit. ”

Quntenkar looked at Binghe carefully, and in great surprise, asked in a slightly tentative tone, "Are you the mechanical controller of Oka?" ”

Binghe said, "I am the mechanical controller who followed His Highness Suta. ”

Carl suddenly said: "Bix, well," then looked at Binghe with a smile and said: "I have long heard that the water and soil there support people, and the reputation is well deserved." ”

Binghe smiled and didn't continue to correct, and asked, "Are you here to visit my factory?" ”

Carl smiled and said, "Yes, excuse me,"

Speaking of which, Carl looked at Bing Nu carefully, and it seemed that it was difficult to determine what was going on. Then he said, "Your Excellency, can you take me in and have a look?" ”

Gun Flame Binghe smiled and nodded: "Of course." ”

Then Gunflame Bing Core welcomed Carl in, and the knights behind Carl looked at each other and followed.

Gunflame Binghe led Carl into the factory.

It's to see a pocket-sized chemical factory. There are also a large number of pipes in each reactor. It's like a mechanical jungle to Carl.

Karl turned to Binghe suspiciously, and asked, "What is this for?" ”

Binghe said with a smile: "Chemical plant." ”

Karl was stunned, then tried to confirm: "Gunpowder factory? ”

Binghe said: "Well, the gunpowder factory is only a part of the chemical industry. And the chemical industry is not a gunpowder factory. ”

Carl could not deny continuing to follow in Binghe's footsteps. The knight behind him was holding the sword in his hand and looking around vigilantly.

Walking through the reactor area, Bing said to Karl: "Your Excellency, the profession of mechanic is changing rapidly. After a thousand years of steam, technology has reached a fork in the road, and mechanics and machine controllers have shown a trend of differentiation in this century. ”

Carl showed an interested expression and asked humbly, "Can you tell me more about it?"

Binghe gestured to his fingers and said: "Boiling water in a steam engine is a modern mechanical technology, and now with the increasing technology, it is difficult for any mechanical family to generalize all the technologies on the basis. Now, as far as I can see, there are three main directions for the future of the mechanic profession.

First: electric power, as well as power control, some machinist families have begun to take this technical route.

Second: traditional machining. This is the largest category now, and it will continue to be so in the future.

Third: the chemical field, this field is an emerging category, and in the future, this industry will make a large number of new materials appear in the world. ”

Karl, who came from the industrially backward Duchy of Oakley, had no idea that the theories that Binghe was talking about were not circulating among the mechanical controllers at all.

The layman Carl was stunned by Bingnu's flickering. Of course, this is not a fool, Binghe, who has traveled all over the world, may be the most knowledgeable mechanical controller in the mechanical world of the Western Continent.

Karl silently jotted down Binghe's words and asked, "So what direction are you good at?" ”

Binghe smiled: "I am a learner, and I may not be as specialized as any family, but I have been involved in various fields. I like to make something new."

Binghe took Carl to the terminal of a chemical synthesis port, picked up a roll of freshly produced plastic film and handed it to Carl. Binghe smiled and said, "This is my new research gadget. ”

His Highness opened the roll of plastic film that Binghe had handed over, and reached out to touch the smooth material that was neither gold, nor wood, nor stone.

The curiosity in the heart of His Excellency made him forget the purpose of coming here.

The original purpose of his coming here today was to investigate what that strange fireworks in the sky were a day ago.

Coal mine and hydrogen are converted into ethylene, which is then polymerized like Lego to form polyethylene and polyvinyl chloride. It is then shaped in a shielding gas (nitrogen).

Such a chemical reaction is now carried out in the chemical equipment of a simple plant.

It sounds like a simple step, but Binghe uses mimic catalysis in every step of the process to achieve this process, and if you don't use mimic catalysis, the reaction kettle is not without generating products.

Even without the aid of mimic catalysis, the design of the nucleus makes it easy to generate the reactants that need to be generated in each small reactor.

However, each reactor designed by Binghe is at the laboratory level, that is, the reaction is not carried out sufficiently, and there are too many impurities that are difficult to extract. Therefore, only by forcibly using mimic catalysts can each link reach the industrial level.

Binghe has designed more than twenty kinds of spells for this purpose, mimic catalysis. This also makes Binghe determine that there will be a reason for the emergence of the profession of chemical engineer in the future.

Bingnu's lazy personality doesn't do such complicated things for no reason. The purpose of the Bing Nucleus is a new type of airship.

Earth airship technology is divided into two very obvious phases: new airships and old airships. Vintage airships disappeared after World War I and before World War II. Because it was knocked out by airplanes. In the 21st century, the new airship technology has regained the technology of the blue sky from the hands of airplanes.

This world uses the skin of some kind of sea creature as an airbag skin, and the cow intestine skin used by Zeppelin in World War I is half a pound and eight taels. Undoubtedly an old-fashioned airship. And it's still people who control and maintain it. Binghe: "How dangerous this is. ”

Remote control, semi-automatic airship, is king.

Binghe now has a domain, and when it comes to transmitting radio signals, it has unimaginable advantages.

For a long time, the fortresses of this world did not use this advantage, for the simple reason that they did not have the basic knowledge of mechanics, and they did not cede real dominance to mechanics.

(During the same period, even though firearms lagged far behind the West at the end of the Ming Dynasty, craftsmen in the late Ming Dynasty were still the most skilled group in the world.) But the 'visionary' literati who valued firearms never gave the artisans their due rights, but simply threw at them some wages that had been severely deducted, and arrogantly thought that they had given enough. ）

Now in such an aristocratic hierarchy, mechanics can't teach the upper profession how to do it. Even if it was suggested, the fortresses would not listen. Unless - take a beating.

Today, after a thousand years of steam, the fortress profession is getting weaker and weaker.

Binghe complained: "The social system hinders the progress of science and technology." ”
