The imperial meeting of the Qianqing Palace is discussing the military deployment of the Great China Dynasty.
Emperor Su He looked at the Governor Li Fengming and asked: "How are the jungle army troops in Guangdong, Guangxi and Yunnan and Guizhou trained?
Is the military confident that it can take over Vietnam, Siam, Myanmar and other regions?"
Li Fengming looked at the generals present. If he dared to retreat, these generals who were fighting for military glory would tear him to pieces.
He said confidently: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the Second Army and the Sixth Army in Yunnan and Guizhou, and the Ninth Army and the Twelfth Army in Guangdong and Guangxi.
They have all been baptized in jungle warfare for a long time, and some troops will rotate to Nanyang areas to wipe out local indigenous tribes.
Militiamen who performed well in Nanyang were also recruited into the army by these troops.
The backbone of the army are all veterans from the founding period, and their combat capabilities are guaranteed.
Our opponents are small countries in Southeast Asia.
As long as the army is willing to be ruthless, even if there are some setbacks at the beginning, with Dahua's strong foundation, you can conquer these places.
The Imperial Council next discussed the distribution of military expenditures.
If ten million taels of silver coins were not enough, we would raise another twenty million taels of silver coins from the private sector by issuing bonds.
A steam engine drives a small generator to generate electricity.
The emergence of electrification can further enhance the industrial strength of the Dahua Dynasty.
This time, 30 million taels of silver coins were raised to ensure sufficient logistics for the army.
We fill the bulb with nitrogen to prevent the tungsten filament from oxidizing.
If he couldn't find a live pig, he would send someone out of the palace to buy it.
Emperor Su He looked at Prime Minister Wang Zhongce and asked: "Does the cabinet now have a sufficient military budget?"
When most of the generals in the capital heard about Emperor Su He's arrangements, they were all in great spirits.
You can come to the palace today to install electric lights."
The imperial meeting ended and Su He went to the harem.
When the upper metal piece touches the metal piece of the roller, the power will be turned on.
His assistant will cut off the power at any time, so his safety is guaranteed.
When Wang Wenjun learned about electric wires for the first time, he thought they were too luxurious.
When Queen Wang Wenjun saw Su He arriving, she came over and asked, "Husband, there are rumors that electric lights are dangerous.
I and other scholars with the same ambition put all their energy into how to utilize the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction.
When Su He heard this statement, he couldn't help laughing.
He thought that some people in later generations said that the incandescent lamps shipped from the factory have been carefully calculated by the manufacturer and can only be used for about five years under normal use.
He changed his words again: "Wenjun, if you have a pregnant or timid concubine, you can send your personal female officer over."
Liu Dongliang put on rubber gloves and rubber boots. He held two iron drills in his hands.
Even in spite of his busy schedule, His Majesty also guided the minister's research and development work and pointed us in the right direction.
Su He walked into Kunning Palace. Electric lights had been installed in every room here.
Su He was surprised by the service life of the tungsten lamp.
Su Hedao: "Liu Dongliang acted very quickly. He just reported the completion of industrial production of electric lights and wires some time ago.
Even Liu Dongliang's understanding of electricity is not as clear as his.
He entrusted the management of the installation of electric lights in the palace to Queen Wang Wenjun.
Next, I will demonstrate to you the dangers of electricity in accordance with His Majesty's instructions."
Su He came to the switch in the yard and pulled down the light switch.
The technology to build power stations is not yet available.
When Wang Wenjun heard what was about to be demonstrated, she was a little scared. She walked to Su He and said: "Your Majesty, I do not recommend that you have pregnant concubines coming to Kunning Palace."
This approach, in addition to adding sand to the local officialdom, can also keep the army's upward path unimpeded.
Su He said in surprise: "The service life of electric lamps is so long and can be used for decades."
Pull the switch again, and the roller will switch to the side without the metal piece, and the power will be disconnected."
Zhou Fangzhi said with some worry: "Your Majesty, there are many bad rumors in the market.
Liu Dongliang nodded and said: "Your Majesty, I am talking about continuous use for decades, and only occasionally lighting it for a few hours at night. It can be used for hundreds of years."
When Su He heard the money, he frowned and said, "This money is not enough, and I don't want the war to be delayed for a long time because of military expenditures.
This is how the light bulb factory allows people to continue to buy light bulbs, artificially creating scarcity of items.
He will never tolerate the incompetence of the army. An army that cannot win wars is useless.
The electric lamp is screwed onto a wooden base and installed on the beam, with wires connected behind it.
Once the generator was built, we all started looking for ways to use electricity.
He gently touched the two iron rods to the big fat pig's neck.
Sweat immediately broke out on Liu Dongliang's forehead, and he said with some worry: "Your Majesty, if I do this, will it scare some timid people?
When Liu Dongliang heard the emperor's question, he reported: "Your Majesty, I did not get your instructions and now I am just starting the steam engine.
The rate of corruption of the army will not be too fast. Cooperating with the anti-corruption in the army can maintain a high combat effectiveness of the army.
When Emperor Su He heard Li Fengming's words, he smiled and nodded.
When touching the wires, keep your hands away from water and make sure the rubber skin outside the wires is intact.
His Majesty allowed me to establish the Institute of Electromagnetics at the Academy of Sciences.
He saw a large number of engineering personnel entering the harem.
Wang Wenjun was very curious about electric lights. My husband had not been in the palace for a long time and spent a lot of money to buy these new things.
Now it is just electric lights, but more electrical appliances will appear in the future. Dahua Dynasty will lead the development of electrification in the future.
The queen asked Liu Dongliang to prepare the harem, and then allowed Liu Dongliang to bring people into the harem.
There are also people who spread the idea that electricity can damage people’s bodies and luck, which is an ominous thing.”
Tungsten lamp technology is very simple, and the prototype tungsten lamp manufactured by the Academy of Sciences will definitely not be tampered with.
Next, I will give you a brief introduction to electricity.
The style of the electric lamp is exactly the same as the incandescent lamp of later generations. This is the electric lamp made by Su He under the guidance of Liu Dongliang.
Our efforts paid off and we produced a usable generator.
Scientific research related to electromagnetics has always been the highest priority investment project of the Academy of Sciences.
This is a wire made of extremely pure copper and wrapped with a layer of extremely expensive rubber.
He looked at Liu Dongliang and said: "Liu Aiqing, please introduce to me the process of developing electric lamps."
He looked at Zhou Fangzhi and said: "Go to the imperial kitchen and bring over a big fat pig."
The concubines and maids in the harem heard the big fat pig's tragedy, many of them were frightened, and they also screamed.
Wang Wenjun saw her husband talking, and she looked up at the pear-shaped glass bottle on the roof.
Su He Su He came to Kunning Palace where Queen Wang Wenjun lived. The installation of electric lights here has been completed.
They all carried wires, long wires made of copper on the inside and wrapped in rubber on the outside.
All parties have allocated military expenditures, and this imperial meeting is over.
Only by letting them see the power of electricity can these people remember how to use electricity correctly in the future.
With sufficient military spending and the increased strength of the Chinese army, they will surely be invincible and achieve immortal feats.
When Su He heard Wang Wenjun's suggestion, he also thought that he was a little reckless. Pregnant women are extremely sensitive and are not suitable for watching pigs being killed with electricity.
The cabinet can now spend ten million taels of silver coins on military expenditures."
Chen asked his subordinates to conduct thousands of experiments and found that tungsten has the longest lifespan.
The emergence of electric lights was also an important driver of the industrialization process, making it more convenient for factories to work in three shifts.
Su He nodded and said, "I will let the queen take charge of this matter, and we will go to Kunning Palace."
But the benefits it brings far outweigh the harm it brings.
This is not a wire, this is a string of copper coins.
Liu Dongliang introduced from the side: "Your Majesty, the light switch is very simple. It is a wooden shell with a spring and a roller inside.
The army is making good progress, we will have fewer casualties and capture these places as quickly as possible.
The emergence of electric lights marked the official entry into the electrification era.
For night work in the factory, only a large number of slave workers can be used, and Japanese workers with strong obedience are the most popular.
During this time, Su He has been busy with the Yellow River Embankment and the military operations of the Dahua Dynasty.
The few princes who are expected to lead the army use their talents to compete for the opportunity to lead the army.
In the huge courtyard in front of Kunning Palace, Queen Wang Wenjun led everyone in the harem and looked curiously at Liu Dongliang, who was preparing the electric pig.
This big fat pig made a huge scream, and it didn't move after two pulls.
It quickly became dark, and instead of lighting candles as usual in the palace, the light switch was turned off.
A large number of coils are used to simultaneously cut the magnetic field and generate a huge current.
Eventually we discovered that when electric current passes through certain conductors, it emits large amounts of light and heat.
Liu Dongliang looked at the Emperor Su He and saw the Emperor nodding to him, then he said to the Queen and others in the distance:
"I accept your Majesty's order to install electric lights in the harem.
After Liu Dongliang assembled the generator, he was taken to the front yard of Kunning Palace by Zhou Fangzhi.
If the military's progress is not smooth, it will not affect the country's overall strategic plan."
He asked Su Xiong and other top military officials to go overseas to found a country.
Inside the glass bottle, there is a silver-white metal filament as thick as a toothpick.
It's daytime now, and the light from the electric lights is extremely dazzling.
Zhou Fangzhi didn't know why, so he could only go to the imperial dining room, hoping that there would be live pigs there.
When the plague broke out in the capital, it was the time for us to carry out scientific research. The concern of various government offices in the imperial court allowed our work to proceed smoothly.
Liu Dongliang briefly introduces conductors and insulators, and taboos in using electricity.
Wang Zhongce stood up and responded: "Your Majesty, the war funds reserved last year have not been spent yet.
Electricity, a new thing, can bring many novel things to the world, but it also has certain dangers.
If I frighten the noble concubine, I will definitely be blamed for death."
His Majesty ordered at that time that after the electric lamps were manufactured, they should be installed in the palace.
Liu Dongliang held the iron drill from China Unicom Power Supply and slowly walked towards the big fat pig with its limbs tied up.
It is said that electricity is extremely scary, very dangerous, and can easily kill people.
He has confidence in the strength of the Royal Army of China.
Carbide lamps are very expensive and dangerous. Workers across the country are injured or die every month due to improper operation of calcium carbide lamps.
The military must work together to completely eliminate the enemy's resistance."
Su He nodded and said: "Wenjun, I have confidence in electric lights. I know electricity very well. It has certain dangers, but its dangers are very controllable."
Liu Dongliang has been discussing this matter with Queen Wang these days.
As long as the path to promotion in the army is smooth, civilians can have meritorious service and gain official titles.
This thing has just been launched and has not passed the test of time. Installing it in the palace is a bit risky."
Su He saw that many people's faces were pale, so he nodded with satisfaction and asked Queen Wang Wenjun to take these people down to rest.
Su He asked Liu Dongliang how the steam engine drove the generator and how it was operating.
Zhou Fangzhi immediately replied: "Your Majesty, Liu Dongliang, director of the Institute of Electromagnetics of the Academy of Sciences, reported that they have manufactured generators and electric lights.
The generator has not been connected to the steam engine, and the generator has not yet generated electricity."
She had some doubts about electric lights, but she still followed Emperor Su He's instructions, arranged various places in the palace, and cooperated with Liu Dongliang to install electric lights.
According to our calculations, the thick tungsten filament in the light bulb will oxidize and break after it has been used in the light bulb for decades."
He has always been very concerned about the development of electromagnetism.
Su He and Liu Dongliang were chatting about the application of electricity.
Su He praised: "You did a good job. I haven't explained the dangers of electricity to the harem yet, so don't rush to turn on the power."
This has led to many high-skilled workers not agreeing to working at night.
The roller has six sides in total, three of which are spaced apart and have metal sheets on them.
In the past, the factory operated at night and required a large number of carbide lamps.
After Liu Dongliang discovered electromagnetic induction, through the efforts of scientists from the Institute of Electromagnetics, he finally advanced this technology to the point where it could be practical.
Workers from the Institute of Electromagnetics are currently installing steam generators and electric lights in the palace."
Whether he can be crowned king depends on his performance this time.
Many of the middle-level soldiers in the army were promoted by half a rank and transferred to local jobs.
Liu Dongliang said in simple words: "Your Majesty, I have discovered the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction. When a conductor moves in a magnetic field, electric current can be generated inside the conductor.
Su He briefly understood the situation of the generator and asked, "Has the generator started to be started in the palace?"
Su He looked at Wang Wenjun and said: "Wenjun, please call all my concubines and the people in charge of the palace to come to Kunning Palace."
Suhe can tolerate a certain degree of corruption in the army. As long as the bugs are cleaned up in time, the overall combat effectiveness of the army will not be affected.
This large-scale battle is their last chance.
Improper use of electricity will indeed cause some damage.
He concluded: "The electricity that drives a light bulb can easily electrocute a person to death.
Su He knew that it was at night that electric lights showed their power.
Su He walked to Liu Dongliang and ordered: "Liu Aiqing is ready to demonstrate the dangers of electricity to the people in the harem."
At the same time, we demonstrate the dangers of electricity. I hope you can always pay attention to avoid being injured by electricity in the future."
The navy and army started a large-scale dispute again over military expenditures.
The electricity generated by this generator can supply hundreds of electric lights.
After Su He pulled the switch, he saw the electric light in the yard emitting huge light.
It's not surprising that it has a service life of hundreds of years.
In an instant, the palace was as bright as day.
In front of the Chengtian Gate of the Forbidden City, three electric lamps were lit as bright as day, attracting the attention of all the people.
The people of Dahua saw this kind of wonder for the first time.
Starting today, the Dahua Dynasty officially enters the electrical age.
