Chapter 839

Chapter 839

Everyone looked at it together.

Liu Zheng followed up and said excitedly: "Surround but not attack, just wait for me!"

Then, he dove into his room.

"Second brother, what are you..."

Xie Zhen was startled, why did Liu Zheng suddenly become so mad?

Jiang Xuan and others laughed loudly: "Your Highness, King of Shu, there is no need to worry, this is completely normal. The young master must have some strange ideas..."

"Fantastic idea?"

Xie Zhen scratched his head, is there such an operation? He blinked, could it be that the hang glider was the whimsical idea of ​​his second brother?

Isn't this too scary?

really.

The next day, the mighty Yinzhou ship arrived at Yong'an Port, a safe distance of fifty miles away. Then it stopped.

This made the Jingzhou Navy on Yongan's side immediately stunned.

What's the meaning?

Don't you want to come and fight?

Fifty miles of land is indeed a safe distance in a water battle. Because in this water battle, the distance between ships is quite particular. This fifty miles of land is enough to defeat more than thirty soldiers of the Jingzhou Army.

The building ships are gradually pulled apart. As a result, the logistics supply strength of the last ship will be a little unable to keep up.

so.

The location of the Liangzhou Army's garrison made it difficult for the Jingzhou Navy in Yong'an Port to move out easily.

"What's going on?"

Xie Chen couldn't help but run to Yong'an Port, climbed up and looked at the unexpected Yinzhou ship fifty miles away.

"Haha, Your Highness, this Liangzhou Army must be scared!"

"Yes, who dares to fight with our Jingzhou army on the water?"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, no matter what they do, they will kill one by one, or they will kill both!"

These naval generals from Jingzhou were all laughing arrogantly.

Xie Chen also smiled reassuringly: "If this is the case, it seems that Liu Zhizhou will be defeated in Yong'an Port!"

At this time, the Jingzhou navy was very happy, and even started to curse from across the bank, and sent ships out to harass and provoke the Liangzhou navy in various ways.

However......

No matter how provocative they were, the Yinzhou Army on the Liangzhou Army side did not make any move.

There was silence.

And at this time.

Liu Zheng, however, rushed into his room.

He brought a lot of wine bottles - yes, it was basically impossible for the ancient army to live without wine. Liu Zheng did not have excessive requirements for this. The only military order was that drinking must not be drunk during war. But marching on the water, because

Although he was worried that these landlubbers might get seasick or otherwise acclimatized, Liu Zheng was still very humane.

A lot of wine was allowed to be brought up, so many wine bottles were made.

So......

What does Liu Zheng want to do now?

Very simple!

A simple compressed air engine! Then, what does he want to do? Yes, he wants to make the world's first torpedo!

The idea…

It's a bit crazy indeed.

However, Liu Zheng believes that this can be achieved. Because in later generations, the first torpedo, invented by Lupius, was driven by a compressed air engine. In other words, it was driven by a steam engine.

Then it drives the propeller.

Although......

This kind of torpedo had low speed, short range, and poor control. Later, because of these shortcomings, the torpedo was not put into use. However, in the nineteenth century, Whitehead successfully developed the first torpedo.

The torpedo borrowed from Lupius's invention, using a compressed air engine to drive a single propeller for propulsion, and controlling the horizontal rudder plate at the tail of the torpedo through a hydraulic valve to control the depth of the torpedo. At that time, the speed of the torpedo was only 11 kilometers/hour, and its range was 180

─640 meters, there is no device to control the direction of the torpedo boat.

It was called "torpedo" because of its fish-like appearance, and was named "white-headed torpedo" according to Whitehead's name (meaning "white"). Almost at the same time as Lupius and Whitehead, Russia

Inventor Alexandrovsky also developed a similar torpedo device.

...

Having said so much.

It doesn't really matter.

The most important thing is that Liu Zheng now wants to tinker with this simple compressed air engine. A wine bottle, but at this time, he needs a glass syringe, which is difficult to replace with other things. Fortunately...

..There are various types of wine bottles on this ship. One type is relatively symmetrical...

At this time, you only need to make a wooden piston.

OK, glass bottles and piston bottles, that’s it.

The piston bottle is used as a cylinder, and the wine bottle is used as a gas storage tank, which is equivalent to a train boiler. Then, Liu Zheng will use a pipe to pump air into the bottle, and the stored compressed air will provide power to the cylinder, which is equivalent to a boiler.

The water vapor produced.

The ventilation mechanism uses a patch to squeeze a tube. When the tube deforms, it will open or close the air path. The black iron wire is a connecting rod that pulls the iron piece, and is then connected to the single propeller...

At this time, it is the most critical part.

It would be best if there were rubber bands at this time. Obviously, Liu Zheng is gone. But you can use elastic steel wires and make them into springs... because the piston is pushed outward by gas, and at the same time

The spring is stretched, and it pulls the piston back when it moves inward.

Yes.

It's really complicated.

Moreover, many of the materials were collected on-site. Liu Zheng had to admit that this was the most troublesome and frustrating development for him since he traveled to this world.

It took three full days for this compressed air engine to finally take a prototype.

Next…

It is the explosive part of the torpedo. Needless to say, this time with the Yinzhou ship and the glider, they came to Yong'an, and naturally there were barrels of Quelehodo.

This thing is now Liu Zheng's unique magic weapon.

Who knows who uses it!

To detonate a torpedo, you can only use the most primitive method of delayed detonation...

Five days in a row.

Five days and five nights.

Xie Zhen was stunned. He grabbed the person and asked, "Young master, are you like this every time?"
