Zhou Yu asked Zhang Long and the others to find a deep water area to build a medium-sized ship repair shop on Coco Island, and arrange some relatively covert defenses to prohibit outsiders from entering and drive away all humans on the island.
After Zhang Long and the others arrived, Zhou Yu gave Zhang Long a piece of information about treasure excavation, and repeatedly told Zhang Long that he must wait until he had an ocean-going fleet before he could unearth the treasure, requiring him to keep it strictly confidential.
Under the circumstances, conduct exploration and excavation.
Under Zhang Long's weird gaze, the satisfied Zhou Yu embarked on a journey to Europe.
Originally, Zhou Yu was planning to go to South America to see what development there was, but due to time issues, he had to put off this idea. A large number of precision machinery installation and manufacturing were waiting for him at home!
Zhou Yu transferred to the United States to land on the cruise ship. He used the time during the voyage from the United States to Europe to compile a large number of information and books that he needed for his future development, as well as some information he would need for his upcoming transactions in Europe.
Materials. When he had almost prepared everything, the cruise ship he took arrived in Europe safely.
In Europe, Prime Minister Otto von Bismarck, the first bloodandiron chancellor of the German Empire, was discussing with the German foreign ministers in the conference hall: a feasibility report on the signing of the "Triple Alliance" treaty between the German Empire, Italy, and Austria-Hungary.
.A captain of the guard hurried in, leaned over and whispered something into Bismarck's ear.
Bismarck was very unhappy at first. However, after he listened to the report of the captain of the guard, his frown also relaxed. He thought about it and said to everyone: He has something very unexpected to deal with.
Inviting them to continue the discussion, Bismarck hurried to the small reception room outside the Berlin Assembly Hall.
What was the reason that made the usually irritable Bismarck so cautious? It turned out that his American good friend Mr. Motley introduced a very important friend to him and asked him to treat the matter carefully.
Bismarck knew very well the character of Mr. Motley, his good friend when he was young. Mr. Motley had a very stable character, just the opposite of himself. Now that Mr. Motley introduced a person so solemnly, he is still
It should be considered carefully.
When Bismarck stepped into the small living room outside the meeting hall, he found that there was only one Asian, with a stable appearance and strict clothing. The young man was sitting quietly in the living room. There was no important person as he imagined. Could it be that Motley
Sir, is this the person you are solemnly introducing?
When the young man noticed that Bismarck had come in, he immediately stood up from the sofa, gave Bismarck a very standard, ancient European aristocratic salute, and greeted Bismarck in authentic Prussian language:
My dearest Prime Minister, I apologize for disturbing your official business, but I have a very important and confidential project for your country, and I must talk to the Prime Minister. Do you think it is more convenient for you now?
A very important and confidential project, dear sir, are you sure? Bismarck frowned his eyebrows, with a hint of displeasure, a mixture of doubt and sevenfold expectation on his expression.
I am very sure. It is necessary for me to kindly remind the Prime Minister that among my projects, I include the technical data of the British Admiral-class battleship HMS Collingwood, which was started on July 12, 1880.
There are also drawings and related technical data of the Flemish-class armored battleship that Britain started building in Portsmouth in February 1874 and is about to enter service.
The British Royal Navy battleship "Collingwood" can be said to be the first true exposed turret battleship in the UK. Its overall layout is the same as that of the "Ravage", with a main gun turret installed along the center line at the front and rear, and a main gun turret installed along the center line in the middle.
It is a large superstructure equipped with secondary batteries and light artillery.
Its armor belt is covered with heavy iron armor on the outside and lined with a layer of teak wood that is very strong yet tough.
Its waterproof compartment, deck armor, turret armor, and command tower armor are also double-layered.
The British Royal Navy battleship HMS Flesh White is 104.85 meters long, 22.86 meters wide, with a draft of 8.02 meters, a standard displacement of 10,880 tons, and a full load displacement of 11,880 tons.
It is powered by a Cambon steam engine, twin-shaft propulsion, 6,500 horsepower, and a maximum capacity of 1,300 tons of coal. A generator with an output power of 800 volts. The speed is 12.5 knots, and the maximum speed is 14.73 knots.
Crew of 440-470 people. Two twin-mounted 406mm main guns, one on the left and right sides, each weighing 80 tons. Eight 102mm secondary guns, twelve machine guns...
Four 356 mm torpedo tubes, equipped with white-headed torpedoes. The ship's main gun is arranged diagonally in the middle of the hull, between the two chimneys, and the turret can be driven by a hydraulic device to rotate freely.
Since the gun body is too long to facilitate reloading, the main gun is designed to be freely raised and lowered from an armored slope, so that the main gun can be reloaded repeatedly on the main deck.
Its armored belt is also covered with heavy iron armor on the outside and lined with a layer of teak that is very strong yet tough.
Its waterproof compartment, deck armor, turret armor, and command tower armor are also double-layered. The outer armor layer of the command tower is 508 mm iron armor, and the inner layer is 533 mm teak layer.
When Zhou Yu finished talking about this information, he looked at Bismarck in a leisurely manner.
Bismarck's eyes lit up. The German Empire had tried many methods to spy on the relevant technical data of the British Admiral-class 'Collingwood' and the 'Royal Navy Flesh White' battleship, but they had failed.
This person actually knew such detailed information, and even the German intelligence agency did not know much of it. He had no choice but to believe in the authenticity of the matter, and he was full of expectations for this.
You may have guessed that this person is Pig Knuckle Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu met Mr. Motley in the United States through J.P Morgan. For this reason, Zhou Yu even gave Motley a small fortune because Zhou Yu knew;
The difficulty for an ordinary Chinese to meet Bismarck is no less difficult than for a three-year-old to defeat Tyson in his prime in the boxing ring.
So based on the information in my mind, I found Bismarck's friend Motley when he was young, and came to meet Bismarck in a roundabout way.
To be cautious, Bismarck took Zhou Yu into a secret room and called in Germany's most famous shipbuilding experts at the time, as well as some other mechanical experts, to have a secret meeting with Zhou Yu.
In the secret room, Zhou Yu took out detailed drawings of the British Royal Navy battleship "Collingwood" and specific technical information about the ship.
In addition, in order to obtain a price, Zhou Yu also used the impulse steam turbine and reaction steam turbine developed and invented by Laval, Wei Han and others, as well as the Mauser 98b rifle that he successfully developed, and the 7.92 mm rifle it used.
x57mm ammunition, as well as penicillin agents, smokeless gunpowder ballistic explosives, hand grenades, small steel cannons, alkaline open-hearth steelmaking methods and other drawings and related technical information.
At the end of the negotiation, the German Empire and the Chinese Loyal and Brave Army organization represented by Zhou Yu reached a secret non-disclosure agreement:
The secret agreement stipulates that Germany and the Zhongyong Army will form a strategic partnership. If the Zhongyong Army unifies China, Germany will first recognize it as a legitimate country and will establish ambassadorial-level diplomatic relations with it.
In the early stage, Germany provided free of charge to the Zhongyong Army organization, a number of Germany's most advanced high-precision machines, machinery, eight-fold telescopes, torpedo production lines, submarine production lines, various shipyard production lines, steam furnace (boiler) production lines, steelmaking production lines, and power generation
Machine production line, Krupp gun production line, bullet, shell and explosive production line, steam engine production line and other drawings and technical materials and related technical talents.
These are the materials and personnel that Zhou Yu urgently needs now.
Deutsch also helped Zhou Yu train various technical talents free of charge.
Zhou Yu also received the sponsorship of two German 'Saxon' class main iron-clad ships that had just been in service for less than half a year, twenty large ocean-going freighters, and related technical training personnel, all of which Zhou Yu requested.
In addition to providing the above information, Zhou Yu also promised to provide the latest British battleship intelligence within twenty years. In the Middle East, Zhou Yu wanted to contain the development of France and Tsarist Russia.
In addition, Zhou Yu also provided free of charge the 1881 Taishan heavy machine gun that he developed and has not yet applied for a patent. The 1881 Taishan heavy machine gun is based on the German Maxim mg08 heavy machine gun. The gunpowder used was invented by Zhou Yu himself.
**Smokeless gunpowder.
Finally, Zhou Yu only owns the production rights for the 1881 Taishan heavy machine gun and ** smokeless gunpowder ballistic explosives, while Deutsche has the production patent rights and sale rights. Deutschland purchased the sale and patent rights for 70 million pounds. The 1881 Taishan heavy machine gun and **
Smokeless gunpowder ballistic explosives are not allowed to be sold by Zhou Yu except for his own production and use.
In fact, Zhou Yu didn't want his troops to use Taishan heavy machine guns at all. He had better technology that he hadn't yet used!
The 1881 Taishan heavy machine gun is the world's first truly successful automatic weapon that uses gunpowder gas as energy. Its caliber is 11.43 mm, the gun weighs 27.2 kg, and it adopts a barrel short-recoil (19 mm) automatic method with a water-cooled barrel.
;
It uses a 6.4-meter-long canvas belt with an ammunition capacity of 333 rounds. The belt can be connected. The theoretical rate of fire is 600 rounds. It can be fired in single or continuous rounds. It can also be adjusted to a slow rate of fire of 100 rounds through the rate of fire regulator.
point.
The 1881 Taishan heavy machine gun has a complex structure. The water-cooled barrel is relatively bulky, and the canvas belt becomes less reliable when it gets wet.
The negotiation went very smoothly accompanied by professionals. After the negotiation, Zhou Yu had a private meeting with William I. The atmosphere of the meeting was very friendly and harmonious.
William I was a very enlightened emperor. Like Prime Minister Bismarck, he devoted his life to the unity and strength of Germany. He did not advocate colonization and had no racial discrimination. He expressed his understanding and support for Zhou Yu's commitment to the ideal of a strong and unified country.
After the meeting with William I, Zhou Yu declined William I's suggestion that Zhou Yu visit the German grassroots and asked Germany to ship supplies as soon as possible and transport them to Hawaii, Vietnam and other places. He said goodbye to William I and William I.
Bismarck and a few other high-level German leaders went to carry out their own second-step European plan, looking for scientific talents and partners.
Nikola Tesla is a person who has a bumpy fate in later generations and is not well known by the world: the world's greatest inventor, physicist, mechanical engineer and electrical engineer.
In the past year or so, Nikola Tesla often had the image of a young man from the East appearing in his mind, as if calling him, and he was very distressed about this.
