Chapter 190 Can't we enter the era of gasoline engines ahead of time?!
Why do you say burn oil?
In fact, Li Mengyang is not unaware that many giant ships can also be driven by steam engines. The most typical one is the famous shipwreck Titanic. That huge ship can also be driven by steam engines. Of course, the steam engine at that time has actually undergone countless technological upgrades. Although it is still so huge, its efficiency and power are very powerful, and it is not comparable to that of machines at this time. £∝
In other words, if we only consider technical aspects, Li Mengyang could have discussed the technical upgrade of the steam engine with Thomson, a scientist, but he did not do so. Li Mengyang was very reckless and led the topic to the point of burning oil!
There is only one reason. Li Mengyang is very clear that the next era of mankind is the gasoline engine era, that is, the era of power machinery with oil-related products as the main heat source!
Li Mengyang is really a liberal arts student. He really regrets it now. If he had listened carefully to his physics teacher's lectures in middle school, perhaps he wouldn't need William Thomson at all now.
That's right, gasoline engines, diesel engines, and these related principles are available in middle school textbooks, but unfortunately, liberal arts students, hey~
It's too late to regret now, so there are only other methods. For example, now, Li Mengyang borrows such an opportunity to use Mr. Thomson's curiosity to pry open the small gap in the gasoline engine era. What kind of result will be in the future?
"Are you talking about using oil to replace coal as a heat source?"
This is Thomson's understanding of Li Mengyang's statement. If the oil is burned, it seems to be good. Because the coal is larger.
"Mr. Thomson." To be honest, Li Mengyang was speechless at this time, because the scientist in front of him still had a little bit of a turn. "It's not only used as a heat source, do you still not know what will happen after the oil burns?"
Yes, oil itself can not only replace coal, but also water. This is the point of progress. After oil burns, it will produce explosive power. The air is extremely expanding!
"Black Smoke?" Thomson still didn't understand.
"..." The black lines on Li Mengyang's forehead were almost coming out.
Why can't Thomson turn this corner?
It's very simple. There is oil now. Oil has been discovered by people very early, but now oil is more used as fuel for kerosene lamps. Why not black smoke? As for other things, of course, engine oil is also known to people. Machine tools are developing quite fast today. Li Mengyang has seen it, and it is similar to what he has seen in later generations.
However, there is no gasoline. However, Li Mengyang has seen gasoline, but the gasoline is not pure, but he is very familiar with the smell. He smelled it when he was in New York. That gasoline... is actually a by-product of refining kerosene.
Yes, that's it. The gasoline that everyone rushes to ask for in the future is now abandoned!
So, it’s really not Thomson’s fault, so Li Mengyang is tempted by successively this time.
"In this way, we treat oil as fuel, and at the same time it becomes something like water vapor. You know, when the oil burns, it will naturally produce a large amount of gas, that way..."
"Yes!" Before Li Mengyang could finish speaking, Thomson immediately understood!
This is actually a window paper. As a super big shot in thermodynamics, how could Thomson not understand the benefits?
Steam is also gas, and the expanded air is also gas. After the oil is ignited, how powerful will it produce? How powerful would it be to use this power to push the crank connecting rod?
This was a huge inspiration. Thomson felt that he had touched something, so...
"Okay, Your Majesty, I have no tea or food here. If you are busy..."
Thomson saw him off.
Fortunately, there were only two people talking. If these words were heard by others, they might have caused Thomson to be disrespectful, or counter-revolutionary, or something like that...
Forget it, scientists, it seems that they are going to start researching it. We, a liberal arts student, don’t understand it, really don’t understand it.
Thinking of this, Li Mengyang felt much more comfortable. The most important thing is that, as a liberal arts student, he can also develop some science and technology. This is the primary productive force. Although it was not done by him personally, he could let others do it through such indirect attacks, and he... needless to say, the future achievements can still be eliminated?
Ah hahahaha... Okay, this laugh is definitely in my heart. Emperor Li Mengyang still needs to maintain it, but this result.
Li Mengyang took out the paper and pen, and then came another masterpiece of abstract art. The drawing on it was nothing else, it was a car!
Obviously, if a modern person knows that someone wants to build an engine, he will definitely think about it on the car. Most people will not think about it on the boat. Now, Li Mengyang has painted a boat, and then he will live together after drawing another car!
But this car...will this time traveler be revealed by this car?
No, because the cars that Li Mengyang draws now are found in the 1860s!
For a long time, we Chinese have a cognition about the car, that is, this thing was invented by two Germans, one was called Daimler and the other was called Calpenz.
But in fact, those who study history know that this statement is actually an advertisement or an ideological advertisement, just to highlight the German manufacturing!
Cars have been around for a long time, why are they called cars? It turns out they are steaming cars!
The two Germans invented gasoline engines, not cars!
Cars are available in the United States now, especially in New York. When Li Mengyang was running a newspaper in New York, he also reported related car news, which is a brand, but it is actually a handicraft workshop. What kind of car did he create?
It's just a small steam engine and four wheels. This is the car these days, which is not fast and has poor battery life. The most important thing is that it's so fucking uncomfortable. The wheels these days are all covered with iron made of wood!
It can be imagined that cars are not as good as carriages nowadays, but in Li Mengyang's opinion, these things are all very easy to change.
So, when Thomson was about to beat people, Li Mengyang completed his latest abstract masterpiece, one that looked like a car today. But it was a bit like a car in later generations. The most important thing is that the four wheels were black, and it was also marked that it was rubber!
The rest, Thomson, you stubborn bull, can handle it yourself, I'm waiting for your research results!
This research is definitely a benefit to mankind, it is really not a weapon, so Thomson must have tried his best, but!
Hehe. Can Li Mengyang not know whether this thing can be used in military affairs?
He came out of Thomson's house happily, and Li Mengyang was not free anymore. He had already made a plan to attack Mexico before, so he had to go back and prepare well.
As for Mexico, as far as the information we have received now, the situation there was quite chaotic. When the American Empire was founded, Mexico had a civil war, and then France intervened and occupied the capital. It sounded like Mexico was a very nasty country, and it gave Li Mengyang the same impression. This country was so bad, and it was the same in later generations.
Heaven is too far away and the United States is too close. This is a true portrayal of Mexico. When you look at GDP, on average, hehe, this is a developed country, but you will know that this country has no opportunity to develop, and is full of all kinds of violence, strong X and poisonous pins. The most important thing is the gap between the rich and the poor. The poor are poor and the butts are lost, while the rich seem to live in heaven.
Now, after a little bit of understanding Mexico, Li Mengyang found that this country still has some strengths, that is, its population!
There are many people, and now there are millions of people. However, there is no exact number because it is too messy.
Therefore, we cannot underestimate this country too much. Li Mengyang has gathered three divisions this time as the main force. Now, the country has just been founded, and each division has only more than 3,000 people. To put it bluntly, the ones who really go to war are only these ten thousand people.
This is the result after considering all aspects. Li Mengyang is not a fool, because the current imperial economy and all aspects can support the expedition of more than 10,000 people. If there are more, it will probably affect the overall development of the country.
Yes, Li Mengyang was just watching this, but in his opinion, 10,000 people hit Mexico, especially Baja California at the beginning, it seemed that it was not difficult...
"Your Majesty! I'm here to report!"
The old Taoist Wufeng is now wearing a green general uniform, and he really doesn't have the same temperament as he used to be.
"Hey, I said, "You are old man, you have to remember this time, don't do anything more."
Wufeng was the general whom Li Mengyang personally ordered. He is now the commander of the Third Army of the Empire. Li Mengyang deliberately dropped the Eighth Division among them to train the former California Chinese Workers, to see their quality and training results, and not to be destined to be as ruthless as before.
It’s good to have no life, but it can’t be too much. Li Mengyang has something to say.
To destroy the enemy and save yourself... This is definitely a stolen famous quote from a great man.
"Resolutely not to do it!"
"good."
What is this talking about?
In fact, it is very simple. It is when Wu Feng was chatting with Li Mengyang before, and he heard a word, "Some pill", this is a joke, from later generations.
So, 'Daqing National Pills!'
That's how it came out!
Small action, really, this action is too small, but...
"Your Majesty, I've studied a new one this time."
"What?" Li Mengyang was curious.
"Your surname is Li. I have heard of you before. There is a man named Li Qingyun. He is said to be an old god. He is over 200 years old and is still alive now. Your surname is Li, and he is also Li. Let's just say that you are the descendant of the old god. You have a destiny on your body. On the day of your life, a golden dragon appeared and the Ganoderma lucidum was blooming in the sky. The house is full of Ganoderma lucidum..."
Come on!
"..." Li Mengyang could not look directly at the old Taoist Wufeng. This guy is worthy of being an old Taoist. He is really a good master in feudal superstition!
But Li Mengyang actually knew that in this era, especially the ignorant Qing Dynasty, it was really useful to do this.
So what should I do? Stop it?
"Report!" Just as Li Mengyang was considering, the voice of the messenger outside appeared.
This does not have the word "Your Majesty", it must be a military newspaper, so what's wrong? (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
