Chapter 448: Final Test and Repeating Musket
"By the way, Lord Wang, the minister has a question!" Mao Xi sent someone to set off quickly to inform the testers ten miles away, and then asked Ning Ze, "This telegraph can only be ticked, how can it be transmitted?"
Ning Ze replied with a smile when he heard this: "In my spare time, I have compiled a password atlas, which specifically uses numbers to represent different segments, and then uses different numbers to compare the current text. It's actually very simple to transmit the sound segment over a long distance through the telegraph and then decrypt it!"
"The prince is talented!" Mao Xi's face was full of admiration, although he still had some doubts in his heart about how to communicate accurately with this drop.
"Mao Bing Cao has made great contributions, and there is a reward for being alone!" Ning Ze was in a good mood.
"Lord Wang, this is the result of the efforts of all the brothers in the institute, and the ministers dare not enjoy it exclusively!" Mao Xi hurriedly replied.
"Don't worry! everyone has a reward, no one is missed!" Ning Ze laughed.
"Thank you, Lord Wang!!" all the researchers at the scene, including Shao Yi and Yulan, thanked them in unison.
When the testers came back, Ning Ze personally checked the two telegraph machines to ensure that there was no problem, and ordered Yulan to quickly return to the city and go to the palace to find Liu Yuanxiang and ask for the Morse code that was secretly placed under his bed.
After the Morse code was brought in, the institute was instructed to immediately print a copy by printing technology to cooperate with the test telegraph.
The problem of the telegraph was being studied here, and two people came from outside the door, and they eagerly came to Ning Ze: "Meet the prince!!"
Seeing these two people, Ning Ze smiled: "Long time no see!"
These two people are Sun Er and Qiu Baozhi, the craftsmen and jewelers they met on the way when they tracked down the fake Ning Ze Wang Tong.
He and Hua Erniang also stayed overnight at Sun Er's house, and at the same time made glass, which was expected to be the birth of the telescope.
The two of them stayed at the institute for a while, and they were quite satisfied with the current situation.
This time, there is obviously something to report.
"Lord Wang!" Sun Er said, "Are you free now?"
"Uncle Sun, don't be so polite to me!" Ning Ze laughed.
"Etiquette must not be abolished!" replied Sun Er.
Ever since he knew Ning Ze's identity, he had been respectful.
Ning Ze couldn't help it, so he asked, "The two of you are looking for me at this time, but there is progress in work?"
"Exactly!!" Sun Er and Qiu Baozhi glanced at each other and smiled smugly.
"What aspect?" Ning Ze explained that the institute had a lot of tasks, and asked them to study countless technologies.
"About the musket repeating device...... Qiu Baozhi said.
"Musket fire?!" Ning Ze was pleasantly surprised when he heard this, this is not a trivial matter.
Now that the musket team has gradually taken shape, it has become quite powerful, and the continuous firing device has appeared, which can solve the problem of loading the musket after one shot, and greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the musket army.
"Lord Wang, please come with me!" Sun Er respectfully invited.
"Okay!" Ning Ze was full of joy and said to Mao Xi, "You can complete the task of the telegraph machine quickly." ”
"Wow!!"
In the autumn and winter of Xihua 8, the test of the telegraph entered the final stage, from the initial dozens of miles, to hundreds of miles, little by little, the final test has officially begun, and the testers have arrived in Jiangzhou, and they have to contact Huajun of Jinzhou across nearly 1,000 kilometers.
For this final test, Ning Ze decided to come by himself.
The content of the test is very simple, the two sides have already set the test time, and the clock is accurate and timed. Since then, the Imperial City of China and the testers have each sent people to fly pigeons to pass on the information prepared in advance. Now that the flying pigeon has arrived, both sides have not read the content of the letter, and after arriving on time, they will send each other the code and then decipher, and then compare it with the content of the flying pigeon biography, and it will be completely consistent to indicate that the test is successful!
Tests that were previously less than 1,000 kilometers were successful now reach 1,000 kilometers with precise calculations, and success is very important.
If it's successful, it means you can communicate thousands of miles away without going wrong. It also means that the telegraph will replace the flying pigeon and become a new way of communication within China.
There is also a danger that the flying pigeon will be destroyed by the enemy, or even deciphered, but the telegram does not have this problem at all, except for Huaguo, other forces cannot understand it at all.
Having a telegraph also means that China's information exchange will be faster than other forces, and everything will be able to seize the opportunity!
At noon on this day, after retiring from the dynasty, Ning Ze asked people to take the telegraph to the palace and test it in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the telegraph, and they didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere.
The civil and military officials were even more nervous than Ning Ze, and they kept staring at the clock in the main hall.
"Bell ~ Bell ~" At twelve o'clock in the afternoon, the bell rang.
With Ning Ze's order, the guards quickly shook the generator.
Ning Ze first took out the prepared content and pressed them out one by one according to the marked Morse code. Be patient when you're done.
After a while, the telegraph began to beep.
Everyone listened attentively and did not dare to miss a single detail.
Ning Ze listened to the sound segment and took a note at the same time.
Not only him, but Chu Xun, Chu Meiren and other civil officials on the side also took pens to record the voice.
After the recording was completed, Ning Ze sent the Morse code again according to the information on his side, which was for accuracy, so as not to miss or hear it clearly before.
The Morse code was also sent twice on the other side, and all of them were recorded and compared, and there was no error.
The next step is to decipher the information according to the Morse code, and the courtiers have taken the Morse code they have recorded, and deciphered the content with reference to Ning Ze's Morse code atlas.
The results deciphered out are basically the same, and the content is "Jiangzhou has been snowing heavily for seven consecutive days, and the climate is cold." ”
"Quick, take a look at the content of the flying pigeon's biography!" Everyone deciphered the same content, but the main thing was whether the information sent by the other party was correct, Chu Xun hurriedly urged.
The civil and military officials, including Liu Yuanxiang, were impatient and urged Ning Ze one after another.
Ning Ze ordered someone to take the flying pigeon from Jiangzhou, remove the fire paint, open the envelope, and take out the letter for comparison, and the result was exactly the same.
What is written in the letter is "Jiangzhou has been snowing heavily for seven consecutive days, and the climate is cold!"
The civil and military officials were inexplicably surprised, and they turned around and knelt down towards Liu Yuanxiang, shouting long live.
Chu Xun said excitedly: "Such a divine thing is in the world, it is God bless Dahua! Your Majesty will definitely be able to dominate the country!"
"Your Majesty will be able to dominate the country!!" the civil and military ministers also shouted loudly.
Liu Yuanxiang himself was also inexplicably excited, and came over and pulled Ning Ze to say to the civil and military officials: "This kind of divine object is made by my husband! If I unify the world, it will all depend on my husband!"
Ning Ze saw that she was a little out of shape, after all, Liu Yuanxiang basically called herself King Danyang on formal occasions, and only called her husband in private, after all, she had to have the majesty of an empress in front of hundreds of civil and military officials. And taking all the credit to himself, even the truth will make the civil and military officials feel a little unhappy. Therefore, he laughed and said: "Your Majesty's words are not true! He was able to unify the world in Japan, thanks to the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the civil and military officials at the scene were happy in their hearts.
Liu Yuanxiang reacted, so he said loudly: "That's right! If I unify the world, it will be all the work of the Qing and others! God bless Huaguo!"
The civil and military officials bowed and saluted, followed Liu Yuanxiangshan and shouted: "God bless Huaguo, God bless Huaguo!!"
Liu Yuanxiang used Ning Ze as a reason to make a telegraph machine, and gave a big reward.
Because the civil and military officials did not know about the existence of the secret laboratory, this reward was given to Ning Ze himself, and then he secretly rewarded the research institute.
Now that it has been confirmed that telegraphs can communicate from a distance of 1,000 kilometers, Ning Ze instructed the secret research institute to speed up the production of more telegraphs, and at the same time let the secret team trained by Shao Yi and Yulan set up communication agencies in various states and counties in China, so that the local government can fully cooperate to ensure that the transmission of information between states and counties is more convenient, including the transfer of troops and generals.
At the same time, it also asked the Chamber of Commerce to cooperate and secretly send telegraph planes to the Zhou, Liang, and Nancheng forces, and hand them over to underground intelligence personnel everywhere, and establish secret underground communication agencies to transmit information about enemy forces more quickly.
The three forces had no idea what a telegraph was, and they wouldn't have known that it looked like a pile of rotten iron that could transmit sound for thousands of miles.
As long as the network is successfully built, Huaguo will be able to stay one step ahead of others and do everything before the other party reacts.
In addition to the telegraph, the musket repeating device has also passed many tests, and it really meets Ning Ze's requirements.
Ning Ze spent money to renovate all the muskets and upgrade the weapons.
Anyway, the musketeers are still in training, and they don't need to go to the battlefield immediately, wait until the muskets are upgraded to burst devices, and this army has stronger combat power, and then pull them out when they fall, and see who can resist!
For example, today's situation is basically biased in favor of China.
Although Liang Guo has Sima Fa, Nan Cheng has Feng Qiao and Yang Zhao, and the tripartite forces also have famous generals who are the best in one side, but Ning Ze has a technical advantage and has the cheating function of the golden finger, so he is not afraid at all.
The advent of the repeating musket further strengthened the modern combat power, supplemented by Ning Ze's golden finger, which is simply invincible!
Defeat the three forces and unify the world, just around the corner!
Ning Ze ordered to start preparations, and when everything was ready, he would go all out to eliminate Tang Niu, Lu Cong, and Ma Jian, and capture the Sixteen Prefectures.
While Huaguo was making full preparations, the other three forces were not idle.
Obviously, Tang Niu, Lu Cong, and Ma Jian all knew that Ning Ze would not let them solve the problem of young and strong population, and would soon take advantage of the emptiness of their own troops to overwhelm the territory.
On the one hand, the three forces decided to further strengthen the cooperative relationship to ensure that after the arrival of the Chinese army, they can work together. On the other hand, it is also a different way to replenish the troops through other methods.
For this reason, Lu Cong sent out two daughters who didn't pay much attention to each other through marriage, one married Zhou Yuan and the other married Ma Jin, and became in-laws with each other. Tang Niu and Ma Jian agreed without hesitation, and the current situation is difficult to confront Huaguo unless the three forces are united.
At the same time, in order to solve the problem of young and strong population, the three forces turned their attention to the surrounding barbarians. Whether it is through coercion or a soft policy, the young and strong population is directly obtained from the barbarians to fill the shortage of their own troops.
Originally, with the idea that his heart must be different, he didn't dare to let the barbarians enter the Sixteen Prefectures too much, but now he has no choice, Ning Ze can't wait for them for more than ten years, let their people have children left and raise them to join the army, and then attack.
