Chapter 809: The reaction of the vassal state

When Mang Bai said this, his heart was full of despair.

It was precisely because he understood this that he could realize how strong Ming's determination was to destroy Burma.

Facing the determined Ming Dynasty, Myanmar could not find any chance of survival at all!

You know, Myanmar couldn't even defeat the remnants of Li Dingguo's army, and was forced to move its capital, Ava, several times.

Not to mention the elite Ming troops now directly under the imperial court...

When Mang Bai finished speaking, a military general named Burma stood up in the hall and said.

"Damn it, since the Ming Dynasty court won't give me a way to survive, then I will have a fight with Ming Dynasty!"

"Yes, the worst case scenario is that the fish will die and the net will be broken!"

"Myanmar is our home field. The Ming people cannot adapt to the environment in Myanmar. We are fighting at our home field. It will not be easy for the Ming army to defeat us. Even if we die, we will have to splatter him with blood."

"Is it possible that the Dog Emperor in Nanjing City thinks he can control the life and death of everyone in the world? We are not convinced."

"..."

After knowing that there was no hope of begging for mercy, these people gritted their teeth and wanted to risk their lives against Ming.

Although Myanmar today is vulnerable to the Ming Dynasty, it is not without the ability to fight back.

Ever since Li Dingguo led his troops to conquer Awa several times, Myanmar has been focusing on military construction.

On the one hand, it purchased arms from abroad, purchased muskets and artillery, hired Western instructors with large sums of money, and expanded its army on a large scale.

On the one hand, they built castles and fortresses in key places in the country, and even built several bastions one after another under the guidance of Westerners.

The Burmese army still has some combat effectiveness.

If they relied on their familiarity with the local terrain and environment to deal with the Ming army, the Ming army would have to use a lot of tricks if they wanted to completely conquer Myanmar.

Hearing this, Mang Bai nodded and said.

"That's a good statement!"

"We must unite and let that dog emperor know that we in Myanmar are not easy to bully."

"Let that dog emperor know that we are not fish on the chopping board, but a big bone that is difficult to chew. If he wants to eat us, he will lose a few teeth."

After saying this, Mang Bai stood up from his seat and said.

"Send the order, all of Myanmar will start preparing for war from now on!"

"Be prepared to accumulate food, grass and weapons, and be prepared to retreat to the mountains if the main cities cannot be defended."

"Go and summon the Western envoys for me. I want to purchase another batch of muskets and artillery from them."

"..."



Although everyone in Nanjing knew that the imperial court was preparing to send troops to conquer Burma, there was no atmosphere of war in Nanjing.

Compared with Burma, the Ming Dynasty was very big and a behemoth. If the Ming Dynasty wanted to conquer Burma, there was no need for full-scale mobilization.

Zhu Hongyu only needed to arrange the garrison troops in Nanyang and the southwest to prepare for the expedition, and let several provinces in the southwest arrange the food, grass and baggage needed for the army in advance.

As for the people in Nanjing, they were still doing what they were supposed to do, singing and dancing.

Furthermore, if the imperial court wants to attack Burma, it will not do so immediately!

It takes time for the court to prepare for war, it takes time to deploy troops and generals, and it takes time to arrange food, grass and baggage.

After each vassal state received the emperor's imperial edict to attack Burma, it took time to prepare their troops for the battle.

War cannot be rushed. It does not mean that war can be started just because it starts.

You must make all preparations!

Otherwise, be careful and the car will overturn!

And more importantly, if Ming Dynasty wants to send troops to Burma, it is best to avoid the hot weather in summer.

Otherwise, non-combat attrition may not be particularly serious.

Therefore, even if the Ming Dynasty wanted to send troops to attack Burma, it would probably be this autumn.

By then, the army and logistics of the imperial court were ready, and all the vassal states were also ready to cooperate in the battle. The weather was just about to enter autumn and was relatively cool.

That's the perfect time for the army to go on a campaign!

However, exactly the opposite of the war in Burma, after the spring of the fourth year after the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court issued an imperial edict to send troops north to recover Nurgandusi.

A brigade-level combat unit of 3,000 people completed its assembly at the Shanghai military port.

Through railway and waterway transportation, a large number of grain and grass baggage required for the army's expedition were gathered in Shanghai and loaded onto transport ships.

The imperial court's East China Sea Fleet also received the order to set off. In addition to mobilizing troop ships and transport ships, several battleships were also mobilized.

There are sail ships and steam-sail hybrid ships. After arriving on the battlefield, these battleships are responsible for providing artillery support to the marine forces.

Yaksa City is on the edge of the Heilongjiang River, not far from the Heilongjiang waterway, and completely within the range of naval guns.

If naval guns could be used as supporting firepower, it would be much easier for the Ming army to take down the city of Yaksa.

Along with the imperial edict to send troops was conveyed via telegraph, the fleet located in Shanghai Port officially set off northward.

There are troop transport ships one after another. The transport ships are connected front to back, and the head and tail cannot look at each other.



In early March of the fourth year after the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, the Satsuma clan finally received a reply from the Ming court regarding the loan.

The Shimazu family had no intention of bargaining with Daming and immediately accepted it completely.

Although Shimazu Mitsuyoshi knew that a coup had taken place in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, there was internal instability.

But regardless of the gap in national power between the two sides, Shimazu Mitsuyoshi really had no intention of fighting the Manchus to the death.

Because he knows that there is no guarantee whether the net will be broken or not, but the fish will definitely die!

If the survival of the Satsuma Domain could be guaranteed, he would not mind accepting the Ming Dynasty's mediation and temporarily making peace with the Manchu Qing.

At the same time, Sony also received the canonization decree from the Ming Dynasty.

After Sony submitted his credentials to the Ming Dynasty on behalf of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and declared himself a vassal and paid tribute, Zhu Hongyu also issued an imperial edict, canonizing Sony as the ruler of the Qing Dynasty.

Consecrated Suk Saha, Ye Bilong, Zu Zeqing and others as deputy governors.

In other words, from now on, the Qing Dynasty has nothing to do with the Aixinjueluo family.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yes, Zu Zeqing was released by the Ming Dynasty again.

Not only was Zu Zeqing released, but almost all the Qing soldiers captured in the naval battle and the Battle of Tsushima were also released.

As for what kind of deal Zu Zeqing made with Ming Dynasty, that is a matter of opinion.

This canonization was regarded as the Ming Dynasty's endorsement of Sony's coup. To a certain extent, it also stabilized the political situation of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

The reason why the Ming Dynasty only made Sony a ruler instead of a king.

He also appointed Zu Zeqing and others as deputy governors. To put it bluntly, it was a check and balance.

Lest Sony become disillusioned after taking control of the Manchu regime and develop undue thoughts about the Ming Dynasty.

With Zu Zeqing and others acting as checks and balances, if Sony wants to hold power stably, it must rely closely on Ming Dynasty to do so...

Otherwise, Ming Dynasty might support others to imitate Sony and stage a coup.

It's just that Sony will be the one to fall when the time comes.

Zu Zeqing personally led a team to the Satsuma Domain. Witnessed by relevant officials from the Ming Dynasty, he signed a peace agreement with the Satsuma Domain on behalf of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

After that, the situation on the Nine Kingdoms Islands became temporarily stable.

And because the Tokugawa shogunate on Honshu Island was still making war preparations, it was not in a hurry to send troops to Kyukoku Island.

Japan now can be said to have ushered in a rare time of peace!

The Ming Dynasty also took advantage of this opportunity to dump goods on a large scale to Japan, and introduced a large scale of female population of suitable age and strong labor force from Japan.



Edo Castle, Tokugawa Shogun's Palace!

Tokugawa Ietsuna sat on a high platform, looking at the martial arts performance under the high platform with bright eyes.

On the school grounds below the high platform, groups of samurai directly under the Tokugawa family formed a neat array.

Wearing uniform military uniforms, they formed a strict formation, each holding a musket in their hands, and marched along with the chants.

"Everyone has it, stand firm!"

With a loud shout, these warriors stood still.

The queue was quite neat, with the black muzzles of the guns pointing straight ahead.

"Raise the gun!"

"Three volleys, prepare!"

"put!"

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Bursts of neat gunshots rang out, and as the smoke filled the air, these warriors fired three neat rounds of volleys.

The lead bullets flew everywhere, scattering sawdust from the row of targets in front of their queue.

Immediately afterwards, the instructors continued to issue commands, asking these warriors to adjust their queues, then reload, and then fire volleys.

"Everyone has it, change the formation to the right row!"

"Ready the gun, let go!"

"Everyone has it, move forward twenty steps, and then change the formation into the left horizontal column."

"Ready the gun, let go!"

"..."

For a moment, gunfire sounded continuously from below the high platform.

The array adjustments of these Japanese samurai are quite skillful and the quality is very good.

Seeing this, Tokugawa Ietsuna nodded with great satisfaction.

"Not bad!"

"It seems that I made the right move by spending money to hire military instructors from Ming Dynasty!"

In order to enhance the combat effectiveness of the army, the Tokugawa shogunate not only spent money to purchase arms from the Ming Dynasty, but also hired a group of military instructors to help them train the army.

Looking at it now, the results can be said to be quite good!

At the very least, the Japanese army is now able to fire volleys in a similar manner.

Tokugawa Ietsuna expressed great satisfaction with this.

Now, he is already looking forward to the scene of his own warriors defeating the Qing invaders on the battlefield with volleys of guns...

Just when Tokugawa Ietsuna was watching the shogunate's new army performing martial arts, a messenger ran in from outside.

Tokugawa Ietsuna took a deep breath and asked.

"What's the matter?"

The messenger heard this and presented the message issued by the Ming Dynasty to attack Burma in front of Tokugawa Ietsuna.

Tokugawa Ietsuna took the memorandum and started reading it.

The messenger opened his mouth and said.

"Your Excellency, General Qi, according to what the Ming Dynasty wants, the Tokugawa Shogunate is asking us to also send troops to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty to attack Burma."

Hearing this, Tokugawa Ietsuna raised his eyebrows, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

After a moment, he nodded and said.

"Since Ming Dynasty has requested it, let's send troops!"

The arm cannot twist the thigh. Now that the Ming Dynasty has made up its mind, it even issued an emperor's edict at the court meeting.

That means there is no room for change in this matter.

The Tokugawa shogunate had no choice but to obey orders!

After pondering for a while, Tokugawa Ietsuna spoke.

"Samurai with rich experience and outstanding martial arts skills were selected from all the vassals under the shogunate for collective training, so as to be ready to join the battlefield in Burma at any time."

"If we want this quota, let's reserve 3,000 people first!"

Is three thousand people a lot?

To be honest, quite a few!

However, judging from what Tokugawa Ietsuna said, the 3,000 people he wanted to mobilize were not 3,000 ashigaru from peasant backgrounds, but 3,000 samurai with superb martial arts skills.

And such samurai are limited even in Japan.

Looking at it this way, the number of three thousand people is definitely not small!

The reason why Tokugawa Ietsuna was so obedient was that he mobilized three thousand people at once.

In addition to wanting to show his obedience to the Ming Dynasty, the purpose was actually to allow these three thousand people to go to the battlefield of conquering Burma to learn and gain knowledge.

Let’s find out how the Ming Dynasty fights wars now!

This is the key!

When these three thousand people return from the battlefield of the war against Burma, they will become real elites after experiencing the baptism of war.

In fact, if Tokugawa Ietsuna hadn't been worried that if they mobilized more troops, the Manchus in the south might take the opportunity to attack Honshu Island.

Tokugawa Ietsuna may mobilize more troops to participate in the war against Burma.

After Tokugawa Ietsuna made his decision, the order was quickly conveyed to the vassal states on Honshu Island.

Each daimyo received orders from the Tokugawa Shogunate, and whether they wanted to or not, they ordered some samurai to be dispatched to Edo to assemble.

Even the Manchu Qing Dynasty was gathering troops and preparing to send a troop of soldiers and horses to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty in the conquest of Burma.

This is the first time Sony has shown goodwill to Ming Dynasty since taking office.



Western Region, Yarkand City!

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Wu Sangui, who was reviewing the troops and preparing to send troops to attack India, also received news from Wu Zhou's envoy in Nanjing.

Looking at Ming Dynasty's call to conquer Burma, Wu Sangui did not hesitate and gave direct instructions.

"Give me the order to dispatch an army to the Ming Dynasty to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty in the war against Burma!"

Since Wu Zhou State was going to attack India next, its military strength was relatively tight.

Although Wu Sangui ordered the dispatch of troops, he only sent out a thousand soldiers and horses to attack.

However, these thousands of soldiers and horses are all Wu Sangui's Guan Ning cavalry at the bottom of the box. They are very elite!

Moreover, this thousand-man Guanning cavalry will be led by Wu Sangui's grandson Wu Shicong, heading east towards the Ming Dynasty.

Wu Sangui stood at the top of Yarkand City, looking at Wu Shicong who was walking away, with a somewhat complicated expression on his face.

The reason why Myanmar launched the Curse Water Crisis was also related to Wu Sangui's persecution.

However, now that the Ming Dynasty is about to send troops to attack Burma because of the cursed water crisis, Wu Sangui is going to help the Ming Dynasty.

What Wu Sangui did in this matter was somewhat unethical!

However, Wu Sangui is not from Beijing, so it doesn't matter whether he is authentic or not.

Now Wu Sangui only knows that the arms production line bought from Daming is really good...

Taking a deep breath, Wu Sangui threw away his remaining conscience, turned around and said.

"Send the order and the army will march southward!"

"Target, Khyber Pass!"

Following Wu Sangui's order, the main force of Wu and Zhou's army departed from Yarkand City and headed south, heading towards India.

In the endless wilderness, countless cavalrymen galloped back and forth.

Big flags embroidered with the characters Wu or Zhou were fluttering in the wind.

Countless horses dragged a large amount of grain, grass, ordnance, and the baggage required by the army, and kept moving forward.

The Wu Zhou Kingdom, where all the people were soldiers, could mobilize hundreds of thousands of war horses once they exerted their strength, which could be used for riding or carrying horses.

Here, there are 50,000 elites like Guan Ning Cavalry alone!

The newly recruited servant army totaled 200,000.

In addition, almost all of the remaining members of Guan Ningjun's family are good at riding and shooting, and at critical moments they wear armor and become soldiers.

Such an army, even in the East Asian monster room, is definitely not a weak force.

In order to prevent Wu Sangui from going eastward, the Ming Dynasty stationed 20,000 troops in Hami after the Western Expedition to restore Hami.

In the Gansu and Shaanxi areas behind Hami, there are also a series of guard fortresses used to garrison troops.

The total military strength of the Ming Dynasty in Western Xinjiang once reached an astonishing 150,000!

Absolutely a heavily armed group!

In the city of Xi'an alone, the Ming Dynasty had more than 50,000 troops stationed there.

It was precisely with so many Ming troops as a deterrent that Wu Sangui did not want to counterattack the Central Plains after having 300,000 string-controlling men.

However, it was precisely because of Wu Sangui's restraint that the Ming Dynasty did not rush to launch the Northern Expedition and capture the grassland.

Now, Wu Sangui has turned his head and headed south to India. The Mughal Empire, which has entered a period of declining dynasty, will definitely not be Wu Zhou's opponent.

After Wu Sangui completely withdrew his main force from the Western Regions, it was the time when the Ming Dynasty took over the Western Regions and moved troops to the grasslands.

But for now, Ming’s first choice is definitely to settle the issue in Myanmar first!



Royal Palace, Xuanwu Lakeside!

While Zhu Hongyu was fishing, he was reading the joint action report of the Nanyang Jinyiwei and the anti-smuggling team.

And at his feet, there was a black and white husky lying.

It was one of the trophies returned by the scouts sent by the Ming army to Nurgandusi.

Originally, Zhu Hongyu was not sure whether the big black dog described by the scout in the report was a Husky or an Alaskan.

But when he saw the three fires on the husky's head and the wise eyes, Zhu Hongyu was instantly convinced.

This thing is a husky!

Compared with the pets of later generations, huskies of this era are still a little wild.

But the appearance is also really good!

Zhu Hongyu kept one and planned to raise it himself.

At the beginning, the husky named Hirohito by Zhu Hongyu was not very obedient and was a bit wild and untamable.

Every move seems to say, Erha will never be a slave!

But after a few days of raising him, Hirohito became Zhu Hongyu's loyal dog, the kind that would grin when he touched the dog's head.

Facts have proved that Erha will never be a slave unless he has food and shelter!

Zhu Hongyu held Hirohito's dog's head in one hand while flipping through the report.

Looking at the descriptions of smuggling tobacco and soil in the report, Zhu Hongyu looked very ugly.

He has explicitly banned the smoking of soil several times!

A special law was even enacted to make smokers travel three thousand miles away.

If an official smokes tobacco, he or she will be dismissed immediately and will never be re-employed. Even his family will be banned from participating in the imperial examination for three generations.

If someone is involved in selling tobacco, the lightest punishment is life-long hard labor, and they can easily be punished by being cut in half or sentenced to death.

Even if the impact is extremely bad, three or even nine tribes will be killed.

Selling cigarettes was also included in the scope of heinous crimes by Zhu Hongyu.

It can be said that heavy use of scriptures was used.

But this cannot curb people’s greed and yearning for profit!

Lu Xun was right when he said that no matter how stringent the law is, it will be regarded as a blank sheet of paper in the face of sufficient interests.

With the anger boiling in his heart, Zhu Hongyu took a deep breath and then spoke.

"Send an order to Zhou Tianxu and ask the Jin Yiwei and the anti-smuggling team to cooperate."

"Strictly investigate this tobacco and soil smuggling case for me!"

"No matter who is involved, I will investigate to the end!"

Zhu Hongyu's attitude was very firm.

The scale of this cigarette and soil smuggling case is not small. Judging from the smuggling route, it can be said that it is quite familiar. It will definitely not happen once or twice.

It can be said that they are all habitual offenders!

Judging from the current situation, the local officials of the Ming Dynasty, especially the officials at the entry-exit ports in the southwest, have probably been corrupted to the point of disgrace.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! I really don’t blame Zhu Hongyu for being annoyed!

Wang Ruxian on the side heard this, bowed and said something.

"Wei Chen understands!"

For Zhu Hongyu now, as long as he makes up his mind to do something, there is basically no possibility that it cannot be done.

If he wants to strictly investigate tobacco smuggling cases, everyone will have no choice but to cooperate.

No matter who is involved, nothing can change this.

For a founding emperor, so-called interest groups simply cannot make him give in.

Unless there is an entire class standing on the opposite side of the emperor!

Only then would it be possible for the emperor to give in!

If it is just a so-called interest group and the emperor's will is issued, no matter how deep-rooted the interest group is, there is only one possibility of being uprooted.

After Wang Ruxian went down, Zhu Hongyu's expression did not change much.

On the surface, he looked calm and calm, making it difficult to tell whether he was happy or angry, but the anger in his heart was constantly boiling.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"

"A bunch of damn white pigs! Damn British guys! Who gave them the courage to sell cigarettes to Ming Dynasty?!"

Judging from the reports submitted by the Jin Yiwei and the anti-smuggling team, it is obvious that there are traces left by the British.

To be honest, Zhu Hongyu couldn't help but want to declare war on Britain and show the British people how powerful he was.

For British people, the two words "selling duck slices" are linked together, which can easily touch the sensitive nerves of Chinese people.

If the Ming Dynasty's main focus was not on Burma and preparations for the Ming Dynasty to break the blockade of Malacca in the future, Zhu Hongyu would really be tempted to break up with the British.

Although in the short term, Ming Dynasty is not prepared to break up with Britain.

But the people involved in this cigarette smuggling case will definitely not be let go by the Ming Dynasty.

All foreigners involved in the case will be punished with an additional degree of crime.

It’s useless for anyone to plead for mercy!



Zhou Tianxu, the commander of the Jinyi Guards of the Ming Dynasty, received the imperial edict from Zhu Hongyu.

He accepted the imperial edict without any hesitation.

Afterwards, he quickly ordered to send Tiqi out of the capital and all the way to the southwest, preparing to clean up the officialdom in the southwest according to the emperor's wishes.

As for the consequences?

He doesn't care!

He, Zhou Tianxu, was originally the sword in the emperor's hand. The sword would kill whomever the emperor wanted to kill.

If this sword had a mind of its own, it would not be far from being broken!

In the scavenger operation the year before last, he, Zhou Tianxu, played the role of a cruel official. I don't know how many officials hated him.

But so what?

After Operation Scavenger ended, Zhou Tianxu's title was even raised one level.

With the emperor endorsing him, those officials would only slander him no matter how unhappy they were with him.

After a group of Tiqi left the capital, they headed southwest.

The iconic little flying fish suit and embroidered spring knife let everyone along the way understand the identity of these people.

Although the orthodox Feiyu suit is still a kind of gift suit, not everyone can wear it.

But today's Jinyiwei also has his own uniform, black clothes and black trousers, narrow sleeves on the right side, and an embroidery on the left chest with a flying fish embroidered on it.

And the words "Jinyi's personal army, the emperor's minions"!

It is precisely because of such a flying fish that the black uniform of Jin Yiwei is called the Little Flying Fish Uniform by many people.

Countless people spontaneously made way for these Tiqi, deeply in awe of the imperial power represented by the imperial guards.

A scholar stood on the side of the road, watching the Tiqi whizzing by, and couldn't help but frown.

"These court eagle dogs are really unscrupulous in their actions!"

"If someone can enter the court and become an official in the future, he must put shackles on these eagle dogs."

It is the instinct of many courtiers to restrict imperial power and put it in a cage.

Whenever there's a chance, someone will try to do it.

Even if there is no opportunity, you have to create opportunities.

Even these scholars who have never entered officialdom have the same idea.

Actually, limiting the imperial power does not mean that the ministers will rebel.

The relationship between monarchy and ministerial power is not opposed to each other, but interdependent and cooperative.

More often than not, the restriction of imperial power is actually just a compromise between the two parties to create a healthy and normally functioning political environment.

Avoid the situation where the entire country is harmed because of a foolish king.

Because if the imperial power is restricted, even if there is a foolish emperor, the country can continue to operate in an orderly manner under the management of the ministers because of the limited power.

This is a healthier political environment!

Just like in the early Ming Dynasty, the imperial power was subject to certain restrictions, and the imperial power and the cabinet checked and balanced each other.

Even though Jiajing cultivated immortality, Wanli did not go to court for decades, and Tianqi liked to be a carpenter...but the Ming Dynasty's government was still under the control of ministers, and there were still no major problems.

Although the successive emperors of the Ming Dynasty were deeply criticized by the Manchus and Qing Dynasties, it is true that Jiajing and Wanli were not interested in government affairs.

Although the stable operation of government depends on the emperor's checks and balances and power, it is also related to the political system of the Ming Dynasty.

Until a diligent Chongzhen emerged.

Yes, the Ming Dynasty is dead!

Although Chongzhen's diligent attitude cannot be said, his ability cannot be said either.

If Chongzhen didn't work blindly, the Ming Dynasty might be able to survive for a few more years.

Although the Ming Dynasty fell during the Chongzhen Dynasty, it was the result of a combination of natural and man-made disasters, internal and external troubles, and many factors.

But the existence of Chongzhen also greatly promoted the advancement of this process...

This is a typical example of one person's incompetence harming the country.

However, to limit the imperial power, it also depends on who the target is.

Trying to limit the power of a founding king is no different than seeking death.

After the scholar finished speaking, everyone around him subconsciously moved away from him.

Although there is no literary prison in the Ming Dynasty and no one will be punished for words, everyone understands the truth that disaster comes from words.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with staying away from a guy like this who talks nonsense.

The scholar saw the actions of other people around him, flicked his sleeves and spoke.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "A group of people who follow the trend!"

However, although this scholar had a tough talk, after looking around, he disappeared into the crowd.

Well, his whole body is hard except for his mouth!



In Nanjing City, Wangjia Machinery Factory!

After getting the design drawings of the steam car from Huang Zhongqiu, Wangjia Machinery Factory started the research and development process of the steam car non-stop.

As time passed, the Wang family's machine factory finally produced the first prototype in early May of the fourth year of the Ming Dynasty.

Huang Zhongqiu was invited to the scene to conduct vehicle inspection.

Creaking, creaking, accompanied by a heart-wrenching sound of mechanical friction, the steam car was manually dragged into the test site.

Huang Zhongqiu personally went forward to inspect every detail of the steam train.

He even opened the door and sat in the driver's seat to experience the driving experience.

After a while, Huang Zhongqiu completed the detailed inspection of the steam train.

Then he nodded to Yuan Wang and said.

"Commissioner, I think there won't be any big problems with the steam train!"

Wang Yuanwai smiled and nodded.

“As long as it’s no problem, that’s fine!”

Immediately afterwards, Wang Yuanwai quickly arranged the test.

One by one, workers started to light the fire and add coal to the steam engine.

As the temperature rises, the water is boiled, the pointer on the pressure valve dial gradually moves to the correct position, and then the steam engine starts to rotate.

The rotating connecting shaft began to provide forward power for the steam car!

Accompanied by bursts of black smoke from burning coal and the sound of whistles, the bearings rotated along with the inflated rubber tires.

Amidst the exclamations of the onlookers, the steam train began to move forward slowly.

The speed was very slow at first, but as time went by, under the action of inertia and the continuous operation and pressure of the steam engine, the speed of the steam car began to get faster and faster.

Gradually, it started out slower than a human walking, and gradually turned into a trotting speed...

A technician is sitting in the cab, and some operators are busy operating the accelerator, brake, clutch, steering wheel, gear lever, etc.

As time goes by, technicians become more and more proficient in their operations.

After the driving test is completed, the uphill and downhill tests, turning tests, and emergency braking tests will follow...

As the experiments were carried out one by one, an expression of joy gradually appeared on Wang Yuanwai's face.

The eldest son of the prince on the side also looked excited, pointing to the running car and said to his father.

"Let me tell you, let me tell you, steam cars will definitely work!"

"It will definitely work!"

Mr. Wang also smiled and nodded.



ps: Judging from the outline, this book is almost in its later stages.
