Under the great attention of Liu Chen, the Han Emperor, the problem of the steam engine's safety valve was solved in less than two months.

That is to say, the original efficiency is slightly reduced to improve safety.

In this way, the steam engine could finally be put into use, and the test site was in the capital, Changshan, Jizhou.

Steam engines can be assembled on top of trains to become steam trains. It can also be installed on a ship to turn it into a steamship, and can also be assembled on a loom, etc.

That is to say, production tools that originally required manpower were gradually turned into machinery to replace labor.

The steam train needed to lay rails. Under the obstruction of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the engineering corps laid the rails from Yuanshi County in Changshan to Zhending County.

When the engineering troops were carrying out construction in a mighty manner, they aroused the curiosity of the people around the capital.

Almost every day of construction, people with good intentions gathered around to watch, and the news gradually spread throughout the capital.

In fact, this is not a secret. News about steam engines has been published in newspapers, triggering discussions all over the world.The peace talks are sensational!

While the steam train was laying the tracks in a mighty manner, the steam ship led by Zhao Yun and other 31st military bosses had already taken the lead in launching a trial voyage.

Their trial voyage took place on Jishui, a tributary of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. In addition to steam engines, the ship was also equipped with artillery.

This is also the crystallization of the current science and technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and it is also proof of the improvement of smelting technology, steelmaking technology, etc.

Not only that, most of the outside of this ship is wrapped in steel. Although it is not entirely made of steel, it can barely be called a giant steel ship.

This first and now only giant steel ship is a naval warship research project that the military bosses focus on and take the lead.

Especially Huang Zhong, who is now far away in Japan, is the most enthusiastic about this. If it weren't for the distance, Huang Zhong would even want to return to the capital to participate in the trial voyage.

Because if this steamship can replace the sailboat, the efficiency can be greatly improved.

Most importantly, there is no need to be affected by wind or weather.

The Han's naval force will be more powerful and can even explore the ocean without fear of the threat of waves and storms!

Jishui dock.

When Liu Chen, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Yan Liang, Wen Chou and other important military officials arrived, the giant steel ship named"Mighty General" was launched.

The two huge chimneys on the hull were particularly dazzling. When the staff burned the steam engine boiler, they could only hear"whirring."——"Twice.

The two chimneys spurted out steaming flames, and the ship's hull suddenly shook. The people around were shocked.

This is also the first time Liu Chen has seen a steamship. The main reason is that the era before Liu Chen traveled through time was already very developed and steamships have been eliminated.

But Liu Chen had seen the movie"Titanic". That ship also ran through a steam engine, using coal as fuel to drive the steam engine.

The same is true for today's"Mighty General".

After a short wait, the staff seemed to have finally started the boiler and the ship had finally warmed up.

Considering safety issues, Zhao Yun did not board the ship for a trial voyage, but Liu Chen wanted to stand on the bow and appreciate the majesty of this steamship.

It is a pity that as the king of a country, Liu Chen's life is more valued. A gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall, so his idea was directly scuppered by serious protests from civil servants and military generals.

Liu Chen, Zhao Yun and others followed the"Mighty General" on horses or carriages.

This can also be compared to the speed of today's ships and the speed of horses!

"Huhu——"

After several bursts of spitting, the Mighty General finally started moving. This zero-second acceleration time is too slow, and it is not as convenient as a horse.

However, when the hull moved, there were no sails on it at all, but relied on steam engines to move, which surprised everyone even more.

The people had no horses to work with, but they ran and chased the steamship forward. They were very happy, excited, and uplifted!

Liu Chen, Zhao Yun and other civil servants and generals advanced on horses.

They still had the advantage in speed at the beginning, but as the steamship gradually got on track, the speed gradually became significantly faster.

As time passes, they are gradually left behind.

There were also many people chasing after them on bicycles.

Yes, big men already have bicycles now.

The difficulty of the bicycle mainly lies in the bearings and chains, but for the Han people who are famous for their ingenuity, these are not problems.

Today's steelmaking technology is advancing by leaps and bounds, and the level of manufacturing skills is also changing with each passing day. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Although bicycles cannot be compared with later generations of mountain bikes and other models, they are already faster, more convenient, and less labor-intensive than human running.

However.

Whether Liu Chen, Zhao Yun and others were chasing after them on sweaty horses, or the common people were chasing on bicycles, they were gradually forgotten by the steamship.

"His Majesty! Although the steam ship sets off slowly, if it gets on track, its sailing speed can be comparable to that of a sailboat."Zhao Yun said with some excitement.

Liu Chen nodded:"Zilong, the Jishui River is still too narrow. Find a time to go to the Bohai Bay and test the speed comparison between steamships and sailboats!"

"good! Zhao Yun was very excited,"

If General Huang sees it, he will be very excited!" His naval force is expected to be greatly improved!"

Liu Chen smiled and nodded.

This steamship is not only fast, but the most important thing is that it is equipped with cannons.

If it is mass-produced and cruises across the Pacific Ocean, there will be no opponents at all.

Pirates? Enemy country ?

It doesn’t exist at all!

Now that Li Dian and Le Jin have led the Eastern Army to capture Luzon (Felvbin), it is only a matter of time before they attack Yinni or even Odalia in the future.

These places today, There may not be those people in later generations, but there are still many indigenous people.

But obviously, they will all become tributaries of the Han Dynasty!

And the giant steel ships will become the Han Dynasty's way to conquer the ocean, conquer the other side of the ocean, and conquer the countries and islands in the ocean. Proof of strength!

Thinking of this, Liu Chen's heart surged, and he was still a little excited and proud!

He played a leading role in Dahan's technological reform.

The industrial revolution originally initiated by Europe in later generations has now appeared in Dahan in the third century.

Steam engines and steamships that originally only appeared in the 18th century have now appeared in the Han Dynasty in the third century and are already undergoing trials.

They are fifteen centuries ahead of later generations, more than 1,500 years ago!

The future will dominate this The world is always dominated by the Han people!

Recalling the situation in the previous life when the Han people were surrounded by enemies from all sides and the whole world...

Recalling that the Han people carefully survived in a foreign land but still walking on thin ice and precarious...

Recalling that many people even lost the pride and backbone of China for five thousand years. Throwing it to the horizon, licking foreign adults like a dog...

Looking at the changes in the big man today, Liu Chen is still very pleased. At least his time travel has finally made a small contribution to future historical changes.

Next, Liu Chen You must command these giant steel ships, use cannons to blast open the gates of the major empires on the European continent, and plant the dragon flag of the Han Dynasty all over the world!
