Chapter 977: sled

Snow flakes in the cold wind poured in from outside the Zhengda Guangming Hall, bursts of coldness hit.
The atmosphere in the hall became more solemn, and he groaned for a while, and Niu Ben said: "The emperor, if this Golden Horde is not removed in a day, it is like scabies on the back of the Great Yu Kingdom from time to time. With the intervention of Tsarist Russia, it is now equal to Dayu. The northern part of the country has once again added a strong enemy. If this problem is not eradicated, the country of Da Yu will be disturbed forever in the future.
"The final general thinks so too. Now that the fragmented parliamentary remnants in Jiangnan have been cleared, the United Kingdom-led united fleet is newly defeated. In a period of time, they will not have the guts to make a comeback, so it should be resolved now. A threat at hand." Luo Quan said loudly.
Xiao Ming nodded slowly. Now that Malacca is in his hands, Nanyang is in his pocket. It is enough to adopt a cannibalization policy, and the Golden Horde, a problem that has plagued the country for hundreds of years, should be completely resolved. Up.
Otherwise, it would be very troublesome for them to cooperate with Tsarist Russia in the north. Now they cut off Zhu Sansi's supply line to prove it.
"The words of the two generals are also what I think. The distance from Kanto to Qingzhou is thousands of miles. It is estimated that this report was only sent more than a month ago. Now the situation of Zhu Sansi and 10,000 soldiers is really heartwarming. Worry." Xiao Ming worried.
Niu Ben said: "Zhu Sansi received a large amount of food and supplies after occupying Yaksa. This is not a problem. The main problem is the supply of ammunition. If the Golden Horde and Tsarist Russia besiege Yaksa, their situation will It's difficult."
Hearing this, Xiao Ming frowned. This year, the railway in the Kanto area has been continuing to the north from Jianzhou. It was only because the winter came to a standstill that it was impossible to supply Zhu Sansi from the railway.
"You immediately give Qi Guangyi an order to send a cavalry to Jianzhou to use horse sleighs to transport ammunition to Zhu Sansi's army, and at the same time be responsible for protection along the way. I cannot abandon any soldier."
After pondering, Xiao Ming made a decision.
"sled?"
Niu Ben and Luo Quan were stunned, they had never heard of this thing.
At this time, Xiao Ming asked Qian Dafu to bring paper and pen, and drew the structure of the sled on the paper for the two to see.
"This is the sled?" Niu Ben glanced at the drawing. What was painted on it was a wooden board. The difference was that there were two parallel protruding iron knives under the wooden board, and there was a rein in front of the sled for horses to be tied to.
The country of Da Yu lost the Guandong for a hundred years, and these generals living in Guannai naturally did not realize the feeling of living in the ice and snow.
They naturally have no idea about this sled.
Now that the mountains are covered by heavy snow, this sled is definitely the best means of transportation.
"Is it possible to transport supplies smoothly in the snow by relying on this?" Luo Quan still had some questions, after all, this matter is not a trifling matter.
"This is natural and it shouldn't be too late. Now I let the factory produce this sled overnight and transport it to Jianzhou by rail. It is estimated that Qi Guangyi's cavalry will be able to reach Jianzhou within this time." Xiao Ming said loudly.
Then he took the two under the guard of the Imperial Guard to the machinery factory and asked them to build a sled on the spot. Because of the simple structure, a sled appeared in front of everyone in just half an hour.
For the Siberian region, the sled may be used as an important means of transportation for a long time in the future.
So he chose a place with deep snow to demonstrate the convenience of the sled in the snow, and officially listed the sled as one of the items purchased by the army.
"With this, transportation in the Kanto area is much more convenient. After all, this railway is not accessible from everywhere." Niu Ben breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the task of supplying Zhu Sansi is still very heavy, the sled tool has alleviated the current predicament.
"Yes, the emperor is good, why didn't we think of this?" Luo Quan's mood improved.
Xiao Ming shook his head helplessly. This time he also had some negligence. He should have taken this into consideration when Zhu Sansi set off for Kanto.
It's just that there are too many things he needs to consider now, and sometimes it is inevitable that there are things to forget.
When sleds were set, Xiao Ming ordered the machinery factory to step up the production of 1,000 sleds and transport them to Jianzhou. In the future, these sleds will be used for transportation by the Kwantung army.
However, the transportation of this Kanto supply is a problem, and the transmission of news is another problem. When the battle report arrives in many times, major events have often occurred for a long time.
In the past, Xiao Ming had no way to deal with this problem, but now it is easy to have electricity problems, and he has asked Qingzhou University to prepare for this problem for a month.
Thinking of this, he said to the two of them: "Go, I will take you to see something more important, which is much more important than the sled."
When the two heard this, they immediately showed hope, because Qingzhou must have found something more important ~EbookFREE.me~ and the group of people turned to Qingzhou University, and under the guidance of Xiao Ming, they went to an experiment in the college. Room, this is the newly established power application laboratory of Qingzhou University, which is aimed at power-related equipment.
"emperor!"
The arrival of Xiao Ming attracted the attention of thirty-two students in the laboratory, all of whom were proficient in electric power application knowledge, and the leading one was named He Dong.
When setting up this laboratory, Su Liangcai specifically recommended this person, who is also a researcher on electric power, and he knew He Dong's skills.
"It is really hard to keep you busy with experiments on the first day of the new year." Xiao Ming said in a calm tone, not like an emperor, but like a kind visitor.
When he first became the emperor, he paid attention to the appearance of the emperor for a while, but as the emperor sat for a long time, he gradually threw away the shackles.
Because for him, the image of being close to the people is more suitable for him, rather than a cold appearance that others cannot touch.
"The telegraph is a big deal, and the officials dare not neglect, this hard work is not worth mentioning." He Dong said, bowing.
After a pause, he continued: "The emperor came here today by coincidence. The laboratory has just completed the sending and receiving of telegrams, and then the application of wired telegrams can be officially launched."
Niu Ben and Luo Quan looked at each other, and both were happy. Now everything that is charged can arouse their intense interest.
"I thought it was time to get results, yes, today the two generals will come with me, and you will show them about sending and receiving telegrams."
In the eyes of Xiao Ming, the cable telegraph is a very backward method of message transmission, but it can be described as a magical existence for the current Great Yu country. This thing is still used even in contemporary times and has not been completely eliminated. With him, the government decree of the Great Yu country The delivery of the message will greatly shorten the transmission of news on the huge land.
