Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 514 Waves

Rumors about the Chu State's use of "cars and boats" on the river had actually been rampant before. Some people once suspected that the Chu State also used similar technology on sea ships.

Of course, this statement is not recognized by professionals, and is even mostly refuted - sailing a ship on the sea by pedaling "wheels"?

The efficiency is too low, worse than a sail!

But even so, many princes, including the Wei State, are already following the trend of imitation. Firstly, it is very effective on the river. Secondly... the opinions of professionals are often not as strong as those in the court. .

Even Ma Jun, who was highly regarded in Wei State, could not change this.

Ma Jun told the Dukes of the DPRK with great certainty, but...the Dukes of the DPRK still insisted that the next development direction of the Chu State's maritime vessels was carriages and ships because "Chu had done it all", and ordered the Skilled Craftsman Camp to study carriages and ships!
This also delayed Ma Jun's original plan to imitate and improve the Chu warships.

Fortunately, Ma Jun tried his best to dissuade him, so he ensured that the artisan camp did not put all its research and development and manufacturing forces on the vehicles and boats.

If Bai Tu had known about this earlier, he would definitely have specially made models of several wheels and put them on the new sea boat!

……

Bai Tu personally saw off Gan Ning and others at the port. This voyage would probably take two years at the earliest to return. Even... if it didn't go well, not only would it take longer, but the number of people might even be greatly reduced.

For this reason, before the navy set off, Bai Tu reiterated all his previous promises to all the soldiers who went to sea.

Not to mention these scholars, other princes generally couldn't understand Bai Tu's plan to send a large number of navy to float on the sea for at least two years or even longer.

He even wondered...whether Bai Tu wanted to sneak up on someone and deliberately released a smoke bomb.

It's just that Bai Tu doesn't need them to understand!
After the navy left, Jinling seemed to have fallen into a "calm" - a calm under rapid development.

Although many of the scholars who are waiting for the results to be announced on July [-]th are traveling around, it is not a big fluctuation for Jinling.

However, in early July, there was a real "big fluctuation" in the Ministry of Industry...

Because of the increasing maturity of the Zhenqi machine, Pang Tong also carried forward the spirit of moving wherever it was needed. He shifted from the mature Zhenqi machine project to the "Dianbo" project that had been paved and warmed up before but had never made breakthrough progress. He continued to serve as The main force of scientific research.

In previous radio wave projects, doctors from the Ministry of Industry have discovered some basic electrical phenomena and inferred and verified some of their properties.

There is still a long way to go before the application of electric energy, and Bai Tu estimates that he may not be able to see it in his lifetime.

However... the first application of "electricity", "telegraph", can already be expected.

After Pang Tong took command of the team, his understanding and application of radio waves rapidly deepened, and now...he finally has the most basic and impressive results.

The so-called "meeting people" refers to meeting outsiders, or in other words, meeting outsiders!
For the PhDs from the Ministry of Engineering of the research team, every seemingly small discovery can make them smile like children.

only……

These reports were presented to the bosses of other ministries and the senior generals of the Privy Council, but they were of no value.

At most...it teaches everyone how to avoid "static electricity". As for the nature and principles of static electricity, others are not interested.

However, it was precisely because this team had discovered static electricity that Bai Tu tragically "assigned" Pang Tong, who had just "graduated" from the Qi Machine Project, to the Radio Wave Project, and greatly increased the priority of the Radio Wave Project within the Ministry of Industry. class.

After all, the current Zhenqi machine project has basically reached a bottleneck. It cannot be continued by Pang Tongyi's personal efforts. All parties have come into contact with the current technical barriers of Chu State.

In contrast, radio waves are still a "new" project, and under the constraints of existing technical barriers, the potential is much greater.

Pang Tong, in particular, is more suitable for projects that have some foundation but lack the opportunity to integrate or "realize" the theory.

After all, the effect of Pang Tong's "reading thousands of books" is application simulation!
Before Pang Tong took command, Bai Tu also specifically reminded him to use electrostatic conduction to transmit information...

As expected, Pang Tong lived up to Bai Tu's expectations and quickly made something that looked similar. However... Bai Tu originally thought that it should be the prototype of a wired telegraph, but what Pang Tong took out made Bai Tu also... Startled.

"Shiyuan, the 'hat' you are holding in your hand...is this the radio wave transmitter you are talking about?" Bai Tu looked at the two various metal legs that Pang Tong showed him, connected by "lines". The "hat" is also full of question marks at this time.

"Not bad! With the King's advice, I have applied the results of the previous radio wave project in communications!" Pang Tong said confidently.

Bai Tu looked at the hat in Pang Tong's hand again, and then at the top of his head where Pang Tong really needed the hat. He wondered whether Pang Tong made the "telegram" like this for some personal reasons...

Normally speaking, according to the development history of the earliest telegraph, shouldn't the earliest "battery" be made first, and then the battery should be used to provide power and wires to conduct electrical signals?

"How should I use this hat?" Bai Tu asked curiously.

"Please give it a try, Your Majesty." Pang Tong said and handed one of the hats to Bai Tu.

Bai Tu took it and didn't hesitate much, so he immediately took it with him. Anyway, it was in the Chu Palace. There were only Lu Lingqi and Zhang Chunhua in the palace, so they could put their images aside first.

However, the secretary Zhang Chunhua on the side stopped him and said: "Your Majesty! Please let me try it first... I am not doubting Pang Shangshu, but this is a new invention after all. If there is any danger..."

Zhang Chunhua didn't know what electricity was, but he heard it was similar to thunder.

When Lu Lingqi heard this, she glared at Zhang Chunhua first, and then said the same: "I am the Su Guard Chief, I should try."

"Well... Master Zhang, there shouldn't be any problem. If it's General Lu... his mental strength may not be able to receive the complete signal." Pang Tong was not offended by their suspicion that his invention was dangerous, but he analyzed it from a practical perspective. .

After hearing Pang Tong's words, Lu Lingqi glared at the bald man even more...

Ordinarily, Lu Lingqi should indeed be called "General Lu" when she appeared as the Su Guard Chief, but in the entire Chu State, there were no more than three people as honest as Pang Tong.

At this time, Bai Tu couldn't understand even more - where was the promised radio wave?Why are you involved in mental strength?
Bai Tu was a little suspicious just now. This thing didn't seem to have any code...

The primary application of normal radio waves is to rely on radio waves, or the length of power-on time, to represent different "signals", which can be letters or other codes. If you master the decryption comparison, you can use radio waves to communicate.

In fact, the principle is the same as that of a signal tower, except that the swing amplitude of the mechanism arm is replaced by the length of each power-on time.

"Spiritual power? What does this have to do with mental power?" Bai Tu became even more confused.

"In the conduction of radio waves, I discovered that mental power can, to a certain extent, excite weak electric waves of a certain frequency, which can be collected and transmitted through this device... As long as the mental power of both users reaches a certain level, they can Let’s have spiritual exchanges here!” Pang Tong said very confidently.

Bai Tu:? ? ?
Bai Tu instinctively wanted to tell Pang Tong - you are completely off track!
Not to mention the use of mental power, which is not conducive to civilian use, and... how to develop wirelessly in the future?
Although Lu Lingqi is a military commander, the mental power of a military commander is much stronger than that of ordinary people, but it is rarely used in this area.

For example, Huang Zhong's blood cloud shows his power, which has a certain mixed nature of spiritual power and true energy.

If even Jinyu General Lu Lingqi cannot use it, I am afraid that many civil servants who have recently awakened to the official seal will also be unable to use it, let alone ordinary people...

But when the words came to his lips, Bai Tu thought of Huang Yueying's "Zhen Qi Bombardment".

Thinking about the world of Cheng Ji, there are many "special" things, such as Cheng Ji, such as true energy, such as spiritual power...

Then will Pang Tong also find that it is more suitable for the development of Chengji World?
Bai Tu was not sure, but there was no "arrogant" direct correction...
