After the Liangzhou Army in the northwest captured the Western Region countries, Dawan and Wusun, they stopped the momentum of external expansion and gradually slowed down their military deployment to encroach on enemy countries.

Because after seizing so much land, they need to spend manpower, material, financial and energy on management, development and construction.

Otherwise, it is really a treasure mountain without knowing how to use it!

The same is true for the Liaodong Army in the Northeast. Generals such as Huang Zhong and Xu Huang, as well as civil servants such as Pang Tong, have been developing and constructing various Guojias from the Japanese state.

The materials from the Japanese country were gradually mined, some were passed back to the Han Dynasty, and some were liquidated on the spot.

The Bingzhou Army and Youzhou Army in the north are also managing grasslands, developing farmland, and exploiting forest resources and natural resources.

Li Dian and Le Jin in the southeast also suspended their attacks on Java and Malacca, and instead worked hard to develop the Luzon Island.

The Jiangdong Army in the southwest, Zhou"883" Yu, Lu Su and other civil servants, and generals such as Sun Ce and Huang Gai were governing the countries in the Mekong River Basin.

Also in the Andaman SeaSet up a naval base.

In the same southwest, the Yizhou Army and Jingzhou Army currently in the Shan State are still looking for countermeasures to open up the road to the Shendu State while governing the Shan State.

The ancient forest landscape was not developed and was in a barbaric state. The situation in Shan country was particularly serious.

There are tropical rainforests all over here, as well as large and small mountains and rivers, which are very inconvenient for development and construction.

Even survival is very difficult.

If the officers and soldiers of the Yizhou Army and Jingzhou Army had not received ability bonuses and their physical fitness was different from ordinary people, it would be impossible to survive here for a long time.

Just the humidity and the poisonous miasma make it very uncomfortable.

However, they did not give up the only way to advance westward. This was also the only way for their Yizhou Army and Jingzhou Army to make achievements and become generals.

The garrisons in each state and county are the current military deployment of the Han military headquarters.

After they captured the strategic locations of the surrounding foreign barbarians, they chose to rest and recuperate to govern these places in preparation for the later Han Dynasty to invade the world.

……

The Han army has been working hard to expand its territory, and the civil servants have not been idle. They have been managing the people's livelihood arrangements in the Han states and counties.

The scientists at the Chinese Academy of Sciences are also not idle.

After decades of research and manufacturing, the steam engine finally came out.

Of course, in fact, experimental steam engine products have been available for a long time, but the efficiency is not up to standard at all, and it is not as fast as manual work.

However, the emergence of the steam engine represented the evolution of the handicraft industry towards the mechanical industry, that is, the reform of replacing human labor with machines.

Therefore, research has never given up or fallen behind. Until recently, there was finally a new breakthrough.

The efficiency of steam engines was already comparable to the speed of horse-drawn carriages.

When Liu Chen learned the news, he rushed to the Chinese Academy of Sciences immediately.

Together with Guo Jia, Xun You and Xun Yu, as well as Zhao Yun, Dian Wei and other important civil and military officials, they all swarmed in

"His Majesty!"

When Liu Chen arrived, everyone at the Chinese Academy of Sciences immediately saluted respectfully.

Liu Chen directly waved his hand to interrupt the red tape and asked eagerly:"Take me to see the research results of steam engines."

"yes!"

The group immediately went to the steam engine research and development park. Liu Chen finally saw the current models of steam engines. There are all kinds of models.

Some have been equipped on a train, and rails are laid on the ground. They are slowly circling the rails. Automatic operation.

Of course, there is only one model of this train, which cannot be compared with the dozens of trains in later generations.

But it can already show the movement of a steam engine, which converts steam energy into mechanical energy.

It is also installed on a loom , allowing the machinery to operate automatically, eliminating the convenience of manual labor.

It is also installed on battleships and driven by steam engines to replace the role of sails.

Various types of steam engine R&D parks are filled.

When Liu Chen, and The civil servants and generals behind him were amazed when they saw this scene!

They follow Liu Chen to visit the Chinese Academy of Sciences every year, but the progress of steam engine research and development last year was not so fast. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novels Net!)

If we talk about the steam engines we saw a few years ago, they were as slow as a snail and not as efficient as human power.

Then last year’s steam engines can already reach the slow speed of a human being.

And the workmanship of today’s steam engines is completely comparable to that of horse-drawn carriages Wait for the livestock power.

If it continues to develop, it will only be a matter of time before it is replaced.

"Can the speed of this steam engine be increased? Liu Chen asked with some confusion.

Whether it was the train on the rails, the operation of the loom, or the steam engine on the battleship, the speed was very slow.

"Of course you can!"

The person in charge of the Chinese Academy of Sciences smiled lightly and waved his hand, and immediately some soldiers came forward to take action.....

The steam train that was moving slowly on the rails gradually accelerated. The most important thing was that several soldiers boarded the train with the bachelors of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to operate the train.

This means that steam trains can now carry people! hiss!

There were waves of gasping sounds!

"Can this steam train carry people? It looks faster than a horse-drawn carriage! Guo Jia said with some shock.

The person in charge of the Chinese Academy of Sciences smiled and said:

"We have tested that the steam train can reach a maximum speed of 75 kilometers per hour. For long distances, it can completely replace horse-drawn carriages."

"Can this steam train run without sleep?"Zhao Yun asked in surprise.

"exactly!"

The person in charge explained:"But it requires manual operation and supervision. We are still debugging the emmm safety valve.

Mainly using the lever principle and spring pressure adjustment……"

The person in charge even used several professional terms and nouns, but no one could understand them. Of course, these are the big guys in the court, so even if they don’t understand, they have to pretend to understand and nod.

Liu Chen asked with some confusion:"How did you solve the sealing problem?"

According to Liu Chen's understanding, the difficulty in making a steam engine is rubber, and rubber can only be found in South America. Or extracted from petroleum.

No matter what it is, it's not something that today's big men can do.

"Your Majesty, we use shaft seal technology, use tooth-like structure to cross 1.6 seals, and pad the joints with brass and tung oil, etc.……"

The person in charge of the Chinese Academy of Sciences once again used a lot of nouns. Liu Chen felt a little ashamed and could only nod calmly.

In fact, when Europe invented and improved steam engines in the 18th century, rubber was not even used.

During World War II, European countries banned rubber from Deguo, which even used hemp rope and tung oil to seal it.

Of course, this is not the point!

Now, in the third century AD, the Han Dynasty could already create steam engines and put them into use, gradually replacing manpower.

This is the point!

"good! very good! I am very satisfied with the steam engine research and development of the Chinese Academy of Sciences! R&D personnel are rewarded heavily!"

Liu Chen was overjoyed and waved his hand directly:"After the safety valve problem is solved, it will be put into use directly. The test site was chosen within the capital!".
