In front of the treasure ship, which was more than ten times larger, this freshly baked steam engine ship naturally became a small existence, and it could be sent to the bottom of the sea by the treasure ship in minutes.

However, the point is that the steam engine warship in front of you is miniature! And it's just an experimental model, and the battleships that will be built later will naturally be larger.

Unlike treasure ships, which use a lot of wood, the entire battleship in front of you is made of steel, and although it can't do treasure ships in war, it still has the ability to resist strong winds in terms of collisions, but it can beat treasure ships.

At the very least, the weight of this thing has already been determined, and it is more stable than a treasure ship in the face of strong winds and waves.

Of course, if it does sink, it will sink faster than the treasure ship.

Emperor Chongzhen has no interest in the improvement of treasure ships and fortune ships - if there is no steam engine ship, treasure ships and fortune ships are naturally the foundation of the Ming Dynasty to beat the whole world, and they must be continuously developed and improved.

Now that there are steam engine steamers, a large number of sailors can be idle in the future, more artillery can be installed and more soldiers can be loaded, so it is natural to vigorously develop this thing.

Multi-riveting steaming steel is king, and the internal combustion engine, electric and nuclear power are too far away to be considered for the time being - of course, according to the strength of the Royal Academy, the appearance of the internal combustion engine will not be too long, and it may be seen before it hangs up.

In other words, how long did it take from the steam engine to the appearance of the first internal combustion engine?

Xiaobai's Emperor Chongzhen felt that his money for school was basically spent in vain, and the teacher didn't seem to have talked about this part of the matter at all?

But this does not prevent Emperor Chongzhen from putting forward corresponding requirements for the Royal Academy - it doesn't matter if you don't understand, just be able to explain the general meaning clearly, so that the Mo family and Song Yingxing have a headache.

In fact, when Emperor Chongzhen told Song Yingxing his thoughts, Song Yingxing became excited: "Your Majesty, the minister was originally thinking about how to obtain kinetic energy from the combustion process of coal, rather than through the promotion of steam, but he has never been sure.

Now that His Majesty has also put forward this idea, Wechen is willing to do his best to give it a try! ”

Emperor Chongzhen suddenly smiled: "Since Aiqing also has this idea, let's try it." Didn't the Royal Academy refine many kinds of oil from the fierce fire oil before? Try them all and see which one is best.

As for the fierce fire oil, Aiqing doesn't have to worry, Daming now has it, and the Mughal and Ottoman side also have it, all of them are Daming's, we don't lack this, just try! ”

Regarding Emperor Chongzhen's statement, Song Yingxing and the others didn't care, and even had some natural thoughts - the whole world is not the king's land, since the Ming Emperor has taken a fancy to the land of those barbarians, he is giving them face!

After talking about the internal combustion engine, Emperor Chongzhen asked again: "By the way, how did you think about the thunder and lightning before?" Is there any progress? ”

Song Yingxing said: "Your Majesty, I still don't have a clue at the moment. After many observations, the ministers found that thunder and lightning only appeared when it was cloudy and about to rain, so the ministers made a king-sized Kong Ming lantern and sent some people to see it. ”

Balloon? Hot air balloons appeared to observe thunder and lightning? Didn't you get hacked to death?

Emperor Chongzhen immediately asked with great interest, "What is the result of observation?" ”

Song Yingxing said: "It's not ideal, many people were killed by thunder and lightning, and those who survived did not observe any special circumstances, not even the thunder and lightning mother." ”

……

Emperor Chongzhen was speechless, but Song Yingxing continued: "There is also the kind of subtle current generated by friction that has been discovered before, so it does not usually appear, and it will only be generated when it is rubbed, so it is named static electricity." But no matter how many times the minister magnifies it, it can't produce a divine power like heavenly thunder. ”

How should the coil be wound?

Emperor Chongzhen had already extended his thoughts to the copper wire, and he was having a headache for many laps, but Song Yingxing's tone became excited: "Weichen thought, since static electricity can be generated through friction, can it be stored?" Then when Wechen continued to do experiments, the Royal Faculty of Medicine provided Wechen with different ideas.

When the Royal Academy tried to dissect many creatures, it was found that cutting the nerves of living beings with a metal knife would cause biological spasms, but a knife made of glass would not, so the Royal College of Medicine believed that there was a firing phenomenon between the metal knife and the nerves of the living beings. ”

You guys played so advanced......

Emperor Chongzhen is almost powerless to complain, these doctors who originally just took a large number of corpses and Jiannu to do experiments are now not shouting about the five elements of yin and yang, but have set their eyes on the dissection, and now even his mother's nerves have been figured out, I don't know what they will find in the future?

Song Yingxing continued: "Weichen thinks that when the metal blade comes into contact with the animal's nerves, it will make the creature spasm because the metal blade itself will produce an electric current, whether it is bioelectricity or static electricity, in short, there is an electric current.

The metal blades alone, no matter how Wei Chen touched them, would not generate electricity, unless Wei Chen's body was rubbed against them with fur clothes.

And when I dissected the creature before, it didn't rub against the fur - if that's the case, could it have something to do with the flesh and blood of the creature?

Wechen later repeated experiments, and finally found that after placing silver and zinc sheets in salt water, an electric current will be generated, and the discharge phenomenon can be generated by the connection of metal wires between the cathode and the cathode.

After a large number of experiments, Wechen finally used the sulfuric acid mentioned by the Ottoman sage Jaber as the base, using silver and zinc as the carrier to make something that can generate electricity by itself, which Wechen called a battery, because although this thing can produce electricity, it is limited after all, and it will be exhausted after repeated use a few times, like a small pool. ”

It's good, it's powerful......

Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen was completely stunned.

Before you can figure out how to generate electricity, you're going to make batteries? And then what's next? What do you want to do?

Obviously, Song Yingxing was not satisfied with these fierce materials thrown out, and planned to further shock Emperor Chongzhen: "Wechen found that after connecting the yin and yang poles of the battery with metal wires, the metal wires will turn red until the battery is scrapped or even on fire, and occasionally there will be explosions, so Weichen replaced the metal wire with something else, and is now experimenting, but the effect of the experiment is not ideal." ”

Didn't blow up you big hitches!

After Emperor Chongzhen cursed in his heart, he asked, "But what's wrong?" ”

Song Yingxing said: "Your Majesty is wise. After replacing the wire with cloth wire, bamboo wire, or other things, it is impossible to draw electricity out of the cathode and anode of the battery.

Later, Wechen and many colleagues continued to try, and found that the two poles used metal wires to draw electricity out, and then connected something like carbon wire or bamboo wire between the two metal wires to emit light.

It's just that the things that are made in this way can't see water, and it has no effect during the day, and the amount of light produced at night is not too large, and those bamboo and carbon filaments will also burn to ashes in the extreme time, so they are still experimenting repeatedly. ”

By this time, Emperor Chongzhen was completely powerless to complain.

Damn, the Royal Academy is a bunch of big hangers! Who is the traverser? I'm afraid it's not a fake? Could it be that this Song Yingxing is? Or did he top up?

After the egg hurt for a long time, Emperor Chongzhen said: "If everything burns, it must be because of the existence of air, make a glass to cover it, and extract the air inside the glass to try?" Without yang energy, can it be burned to ashes again? ”

Song Yingxing suddenly said: "Your Majesty is wise! Wechen went back and experimented to see what would happen if the air was drained and then powered on? ”

Emperor Chongzhen said: "Not only that, but also try more other functions of electricity, I believe that since God has given electricity to the world, its use must be more than just for lighting, there must be more uses." For example, use it for messengers? ”

finally saw Song Yingxing's bewildered look!

With a great deal of joy in his heart, Emperor Chongzhen, who was finally pretending to be forced by himself, said lightly: "For example, one end uses electricity to send a signal, and the other end receives the signal, and then translates it into words?" ”

Song Yingxing really wanted to open Emperor Chongzhen's brain, and then see what was inside-the Royal Academy had confirmed that the human heart is used to supply blood to the body, and the so-called seven exquisite hearts and the like are completely foolish.

Sending a signal and receiving a signal at the same time? Let's not talk about how to get the problem of anti-text getting electricity, just these tens of thousands of Chinese characters, how to transmit them? If one line represents one signal, thousands of lines?

Let's not talk about whether this battery can support it, even if it can, how thick are thousands of wires? Thousands of strands of hair are connected together, but I'm afraid that some people's heads are thick, and if they are laid out, who can stand it? Especially in the Ming Dynasty, such a large land, the states and capitals are connected to each other......

Even just connecting a few important towns is enough to kill - does Myanmar want to connect? Does Annan want it? Do you want it over there in the Mughals? How do you lay such a long cable?

Of course, these ideas are just thought about in the head, and Song Yingxing doesn't have the courage to really open Emperor Chongzhen's head to study it.

After thinking about it for a while, Song Yingxing said: "Your Majesty, this man is tens of thousands, if it is transmitted by the on/off of wires, the length of the wires required is amazing, and the maintenance is even worse?" ”

Emperor Chongzhen was stunned for a moment and said, "No, I mean to replace Chinese characters with length." ”

After stretching out his hand on the table and imitating the appearance of receiving and receiving telegrams in the anti-Japanese drama and pressing it a few times, Emperor Chongzhen continued: "Just like I am like this, I represent symbols or numbers at long and short intervals, and then convert them into words, isn't it?" ”

Emperor Chongzhen was also ruthless, didn't those barbarians play with twenty-six letters? The big deal I'm going to take out the five roots for you, and then convert them into encoding?

Of course, it's no problem for me to split the root, and you can find your own way to solve the coding thing, including how to solve the problem of duplicate codes......

Song Yingxing's eyes lit up: "Your Majesty is wise!" Wechen will try more and more methods that His Majesty has said. ”

In this way, only a thin thread is needed, and even if a few are laid between all the state capitals, it will not cost much silver.

At the very least, compared with tens of thousands of lines, this kind of gameplay is undoubtedly more likely to be realized.

Seeing that Song Yingxing responded, Emperor Chongzhen said: "Speaking of which, relying on batteries alone is not a solution. Although the military does not care, the civilian sector cannot afford to prepare batteries in large quantities, so it is necessary to find another way to generate electricity. ”

After carefully thinking about the principle of the generator in the later generations, and carefully recalling the cultivation and flood desolation involved in the traverser training center, Emperor Chongzhen said lightly: "Actually, although the immortals are separated, I can also reveal some news to Aiqing. It's not that the Celestial Realm doesn't have generators, and I have learned the manufacture of this kind of thing. ”

Song Yingxing's two eyes began to glow - His Majesty was indeed born by the order of the heavens!

Although there have always been rumors among the people, even in the court and the military, as well as in the Royal Academy, there have always been rumors that His Majesty is the star monarch of the immortal realm of Linfan, and it is even very likely that he is the crown prince of Haotian God, but Emperor Chongzhen has never admitted it positively.

Sometimes, not denying it already represents acquiescence, but hearing that Emperor Chongzhen personally confirmed the news still shocked Song Yingxing's heart.

What does this mean?

This represents Emperor Chongzhen's previous will, such as the canonization of the old British prince as the mountain god, and the matter of sending those corrupt and harmful people to the eighteenth layer of hell, and the fact that the soldiers can go to the heavenly soldiers after their deaths are all true!

One day, after he dies, wouldn't he have the hope of being ranked in the immortal class?

Emperor Chongzhen ignored Song Yingxing's excitement, but continued: "It's just that when I was studying, I was mostly lazy to sleep, and I didn't write down a lot of knowledge, and even if I remembered, it was only sporadic for half a day."

Now, I will talk to Song Aiqing about this generator, and after listening to it, Song Aiqing can experiment repeatedly until he comes up with a real generator. ”

After taking a sip of the tea on the table, Emperor Chongzhen simply picked up the pen and drew a central axis rotor casually and said: "This thing is called a rotor, with copper wire wrapped on it, wrapped in an iron shell on the outside, and two magnets placed inside the shell.

In addition, the current generated in this way can travel farther than the distance of the battery current, and the loss is lower, and the application of the two is also different.

As for how much copper wire should be wrapped on it, how to draw the current out, and how to place the magnet, I can't remember, and it depends on Song Aiqing's experiments. ”

Song Yingxing was already completely convinced-most of the Star Monarchs in the sky were the sons of the Emperor of Heaven, and they were actually so academic? Isn't there a shame?

Emperor Chongzhen obviously cared about whether he was ashamed.

You talk to me about how to make a generator? It's hard to tell me the general principle!

PS: The 4000 words of the second update will be sent. originally said that I wanted three watches, but I overslept and drank too much...... Try to pay off a chapter tomorrow.。。。
