Super God: Rise of Civilization

Chapter 7 [Time Progress]

Five years later.

During these five years.

The development of the Star Empire is gradually picking up, and the reform is also very smooth.

Each year's fiscal revenue is higher than the previous year.

"Your Majesty, this is the latest rifle manufactured by the Imperial Academy of Engineering after research and improvement. This weapon has a simple design and is no longer like an open flame gun. It chooses front-loading projectiles."

"Instead, we discovered a kind of thunder mercury, and then through improvement, designed a fire cap containing thunder mercury percussive powder. Put the fire cap on the anvil with a fire hole, and hit the fire cap to ignite the gunpowder in the chamber. Gunpowder, finish the shot at last."

"At first, we planned to wrap it with paper shells, but in the end we found that the risk of bombing the chamber was too high, so we chose to use copper..."

Yang Yu was playing with the bolt gun in his hand, listening to the explanation by the dean of the Engineering Academy, he was a little unresponsive.

Your Academy of Engineering is full of talents.

It has only been a few years since the first industrial era, and the percussion gun has been researched?
And it went directly over the paper shell bullet.

"Your Majesty, this is also the latest cannon developed by the Academy of Engineering. It is a rear-loading rifled cannon. It is only in the testing and improvement stage. It is expected to be put into use, and it will take at least one or two years."

Immediately afterwards, the dean of the Academy of Engineering introduced to the emperor the military research conducted by the Imperial Academy of Engineering in recent years.

"A breech-loading rifle?"

Hearing that, Yang Yu directly looked at the dean of the Engineering Academy with dumbfounded eyes.

Ai Qing, although I am not a history major, I remember correctly.

The rear-loading rifled guns of earth civilization appeared at the beginning of the second industrial revolution.

And we have just entered the first industrial age, just a few years ago.

You just researched the percussion gun and the breech-loading rifle for me?

"Is Your Majesty dissatisfied?"

Seeing His Majesty's gaze, the dean of the Academy of Engineering was taken aback, "Our engineering academy is only in the testing stage for rear-loading rifled guns, and needs to be improved. It is still far away from officially serving the army."

"Try to be the best you can be!"

Yang Yu didn't know what to say. Today, on a whim, he went to the Engineering Academy to check, which really gave himself a big surprise.

Check out the weapons.

Yang Yu put down the rifle in his hand, put his arms behind his back, and walked around the huge engineering institute.

Just when he passed by the simple laboratory, he pointed to the busy staff inside, and turned to look at the dean of the engineering school beside him, "What are they doing?"

"This...Your Majesty, this group of boys said that they want to build a steel warship that can travel on the sea, and they also made many proportions and theories for the minister, so the old minister can only ask them to make a model for the time being and take a look... ..."

Hearing this, the dean of the Academy of Engineering smiled awkwardly.

"Nonsense, can steel and wood have the same weight? How can they travel on the sea?"

A general next to him said displeasedly.

Even though he hasn't been to school for a few days, he knows that the weight of steel and wood is not directly proportional.

Didn't the steel ship sink directly in the sea?

"There are no absolutes. Why can wood float on the sea but not steel? Why can birds fly in the sky? Can't we humans?"

"If you have an idea, go for it. Both Zhen and the Empire will support you behind your back."

Yang Yu patted him on the shoulder with a smile. The Star Empire can really go to the vast ocean, it depends on the Imperial Academy of Engineering.

This Imperial Academy of Engineering is really full of talents and unconstrained.

This group of people thought of many things that he hadn't thought of.

Ironclad ship, the first industrial revolution seems to have appeared, what kind of steam ironclad ship.

"By the way, I heard that your engineering institute is researching a car that can run without a horse. Is it true?"

Suddenly, Yang Yu seemed to have thought of something, turned his head to look at the dean of the Engineering Academy beside him, uncertain.

"Yes, yes, please, Your Majesty, the theories are all right, as long as the power of the steam engine is sufficient, then we don't need horses, and the cart can move."

"And with this thing, whether it is transporting supplies or soldiers, it will be much easier."

Hearing His Majesty ask this question, the dean of the Academy of Engineering's eyes lit up, and he led His Majesty to the research institute where the steam locomotive was developed.

Yang Yu naturally knew what changes the steam locomotive would bring to this country.

This is also a must-have in the age of steam.

same.

Once this thing is born, what kind of convenience will it bring to Star Empire.

He even hoped that the Academy of Engineering would develop telegraphs and the like, so that the transmission of news would not have to rely entirely on flying pigeons to send letters, or running thousands of miles.

He also knew that the telegraph should not appear in this era.

The first industry was just to push civilization forward, using the principle of steam to make civilization gradually move towards the foundation of modern civilization, and it was to lay a solid and heavy foundation for the second industry.

The second industry is the real beginning of civilization, which can use the resources that can be seen, dug and used on the planet.

"Your Majesty, this is the steam locomotive that our engineering institute is designing. It weighs 4 tons and can travel 40 miles per hour."

The dean of the Academy of Engineering was afraid that the emperor would not understand the technical terms, so he simply explained the data to him directly.

"Yes, I'm not in a hurry, Aiqing take your time."

Yang Yu wasn't in a hurry either. Twenty kilometers per hour was twenty kilometers. He wasn't in a hurry.

You can't become a big fat man with one bite.

Technology is all down-to-earth, step by step, and come out.

There is no need to undermine the confidence of the Academy of Engineering.

"By the way, how is your research on electromagnetism books? Are there any results?"

"Your Majesty, we are working hard on research and breakthroughs, and the wind turbine in the blueprint has been made, but we still don't understand how to use that thing."

The dean of the Academy of Engineering said in trepidation.

He guaranteed that it would be done in five years, and it was indeed done, but he still hadn't figured out how electricity was generated.

What's the use?
"I am in the imperial palace, waiting for your good news."

Yang Yu shook his head slightly, the electricity was produced, but there were no electrical equipment, or electric lights, and it was of no use.

Still need to go step by step.

Don't be in a hurry.

In general, the Academy of Engineering still gave him many surprises.

"No, the old minister will not disappoint His Majesty."

Watching His Majesty the Emperor and the generals around him leave, the dean of the Academy of Engineering bowed slightly and watched the Emperor leave his Academy of Engineering.

"Your Majesty, the new type of percussion gun developed by the Academy of Engineering, according to the general's idea, can be installed in the army, but the production of ammunition is a problem."

Leaving the Academy of Engineering, a general beside Yang Yu said.

"There is no war in the empire now, and there is no need to equip such weapons. What do you do with these weapons?"

Another general said: "Weapons are good, but we can't cause trouble for the empire now."

"Equipment must be equipped, but it cannot be equipped on a large scale. There are too many imperial troops. Once equipped in large quantities, new weapons and equipment will be developed."

"Then how will we deal with the obsolete weapons? Today, we are the only country on this planet. In addition to destroying them, we still destroy them."

Naturally, Yang Yu considered the upgrading of weapons, and said: "Order the weapon manufacturing company under the Academy of Engineering to produce enough weapons to equip the Imperial Forest Army."
