Chapter 1073

Chang Yuzhu walked through the burning city of Jakarta, almost not mad.

Now the whole city of Jakarta is full of burning buildings. Captured Dutch soldiers pointed out the important buildings in the city one by one. Without exception, these buildings were all burning in the fire.

"You sons of bitches!" Chang Yuzhu said angrily: "go to inform the fleet to go to Boer city. These Dutch must not escape from Boer city to Calcutta."

When he got the order, the messenger rushed to the coast quickly. On the coast, he told thunder the situation in the city with the flag language.

"These Europeans have some skills. "After reading the meaning of the flag, Yue Yun said calmly.

Lei Ming's face was rather ugly. According to the reward system of the Empire's foreign wars, booty was a very important indicator.

Now that they have got a burned City, they have suffered a great loss.

And although the attack was as successful as ever, the number of soldiers they lost increased by multiple times compared with the previous campaign.

Deep trenches still provide a lot of protection for Dutch soldiers.

"The soldiers won't be able to get a cent of the thirteen casualties, so I'm a useless commander. General Yue, please lead us to Boer city ahead of time. I can't let these bastards go." Thunder said.

Although he is used to seeing death on the battlefield, it is really hard for him to suffer so many casualties. Now he is only fighting with 20000 Dutch and miscellaneous aborigines. If he faces the battlefield of Calcutta, the number of casualties will be doubled.

Yue Yun can feel the anger of thunder, and it is obvious that the Dutch have angered him.

"There's no problem. With the speed of the armored ship, we can definitely follow them to Bourne." Yue Yun said.

Boer city is a straight distance for the Dutch army on the land, but for the Navy, they need to make a big detour to reach it. After all, the coastline is not straight. If they use the speed of windsurfing warships, they may not be able to reach it ahead of time.

But the armored ship will certainly be able to complete this task under full navigation.

”Thank you very much. "Said thunder, biting his teeth.

……

Qingzhou.

After the hand-held telephone was officially connected, the telecommunications department began to install telephones for the official offices of the Imperial Palace and the outer palace in Qingzhou.

According to the requirements of the cabinet, Qingzhou should realize the telephone communication between various departments of the imperial court and improve the efficiency of handling government affairs.

While the telephone has made great progress, good news has also come from Lin Wentao's Mechanical Research Institute.

"Emperor, this is the first sample car we built with internal combustion engine."

Lin Wentao pointed to the old car in front of him and looked excited. Since the internal combustion engine technology was mature, they began to apply the internal combustion engine.

In addition to the diesel engine used for drilling, according to the requirements of the five-year plan, they put the research on the application of internal combustion engine in sports machinery on the agenda.

So they first focused on the animal harvesters that the Empire was using. According to the organization drawings, they gave these agricultural machines the heart of an internal combustion engine.

After expanding the application of harvesters, they built a manned car according to the drawings provided by Xiao Ming, which is the old car in front of them.

Xiao Ming goes to the old car. The shape of the old car is basically similar to that of the first generation car in Europe in the 19th century.

In fact, it's not that he doesn't understand more perfect modeling, but with the current industrial technology, Qingzhou's industry is still unable to produce a car shell with modern technology level.

So by the measure, he still used the old-fashioned beetle shell honestly.

"What's the speed of this car? "Xiao minglue asked excitedly. After so many years, he finally met the embarrassment of not riding a horse and going out in a carriage.

On the other hand, with a car, the safety of his going out will be greatly improved.

"Back to the emperor, the speed of the car reached 60 kilometers per hour. "Said Lin Wentao.

"Sixty kilometers?" Xiao Ming had a big smile on his face. He was very satisfied with the speed. After all, the first car in the world had a speed of 15 kilometers per hour.

But the difference is that Xiao Ming gave Lin Wentao mature internal combustion engine technology and used purified gasoline, so the car exploded the first car in all aspects and reached the level of the improved car.

Qian Dafu said with a smile, "with a speed of 60 per hour, can you run more than 1000 kilometers on this day?"

"It's natural, but it needs enough fuel. I'm afraid the empire can't afford to use gasoline like this at present." Lin Wentao said with regret.

So far, the drilling of the oil well has not made any progress, and the difficulty of drilling is beyond everyone's expectation.

There is no oil field, which means that car manufacturing is also a fake handle. This is the reason why Lin Wentao sighs.

Xiao Ming naturally understood what Lin Wentao meant. He still overestimated the technical level of the Empire at present. Moreover, Daqing Oilfield is difficult to exploit, and it is normal that there has been no progress for such a long time.According to records, Japan also tried to find Daqing Oilfield during World War II, but drilling stopped when it reached about 800 meters, because Japan did not have the technology to drill deeper rock layers at that time.

The true depth of Daqing Oilfield is about 1300, so the success of oil recovery is essentially the technology of drilling.

The fundamental of drilling technology is the problem of drill bit. Now with diesel engine, the power is solved, and the strength of drill bit can't reach such a deep rock layer.

After all, drilling oil well needs special oil bit, he can give the bit design drawing, but the material problem still needs many experiments.

So he has some helplessness in the current problem, because now no one can be sure when the oil field will be successfully exploited.

If the oil field can't be used because of technical problems, he can only find a way from overseas. After all, his drilling technology can't conquer the kilometer deep Daqing, but it's still very simple to exploit oil wells in the Middle East.

The most important thing is that after mastering the mature armored ship technology, the cost of shipping is greatly reduced. It is not far from the Middle East to the Empire at the speed of armored ships, and the cost of transporting oil is very low.

"At present, the empire is fighting in the South Ocean. If it goes well, the routes to Persia and the Ottoman Empire will be completely opened. At that time, the Empire will be able to establish diplomatic relations with Persia and the Ottoman Empire and buy their oil cheaply. In this way, the machinery equipped with internal combustion engines will be able to run." Xiao Ming said that at the same time, he became more and more firm in his idea of monopolizing oil.

It's really hard to feel oil poor. Besides Persia and Osman, he has to occupy Siberia completely. After all, there is a big oil field there.
