Chapter 789
Wu Sangui looked at the ruins of Kevelpati and was silent for a long time!
It's so shocking that a city can be destroyed by air strikes alone without using an army. This is the first time in the thousands of years of human war history!
The shape of the war has changed, a change that is not conducive to India. If the war continues like this, the entire Indian coast will no longer be inhabited. If the number of garrison troops is too large, they will be attacked by airships. Once the number of garrison troops is small, the Ming Army will
Continuous invasion and plundering. The final result was that the coast of India was completely plundered by the Ming Dynasty.
"Li Xiao of the Ming Dynasty said a very famous saying, if you fall behind, you will be beaten. Mr. Newton, now we are falling behind. Look at the crater, which is more than ten meters deep. I remember that there used to be a factory there, the largest on the East Coast.
of factory buildings.
Look at that, it's the coal hopper of the boiler. It weighs 1,600 pounds and was blown directly to 200 meters away. The power of the bomb is too great, and we currently have no way to deal with the airship. Just look at
With the Ming Dynasty's airships flying across the sky, the people of the British Empire were being ravaged? Doctor, we can't go on like this, we will lose the war." Wu Sangui looked at Newton with a very ugly look on his face.
Newton looked at Covelpati after the air raid, and his face was so gloomy that he could squeeze out water. The beautiful seaside town turned into ruins, with bricks and rubble everywhere. The air was filled with a putrid smell, even after many days of air raids.
I can still smell the unpleasant smell of gunpowder smoke.
Unrestrained corpses could be seen everywhere on the street, and crows kept circling in the sky, making unpleasant cries. Especially when he saw the corpses of several children, Newton completely exploded. The small corpses were entangled like twists. The charred corpses
It's so brittle that a crow can scratch a hole in the Tianling Cap if it lands on it.
Unfortunately, there is no brain in the head. There is only a group of black things. The crow screams in disgust and flies away. In broad daylight, mice run across the ground from time to time. The mice's eyes are all red. When they see Newton
"Zhi" and "Zhi" were heard several times.
There are many corpses in the ruins, and now they have become food for rats.
Countless money was spent and many experiments were conducted. But the gasoline engine was not something that Wu Sangui could produce just by getting a few sketches that were difficult to distinguish between genuine and fake.
First you refine gasoline, then you can make a gasoline engine.
Gasoline engines require extremely high machining accuracy, but Wu Sangui's intelligence department selectively ignored Ming Dynasty's humble machine tools. It's not that they didn't want to, but the intelligence officers' eyes were all fixed on warships and airships, and no one thought that mechanical processing machine tools were the only
is the most important thing.
Through intelligence and research, we finally solved the problem of gasoline marking. But we got stuck on precision machining, which is the biggest problem no matter how we solve it.
"Maybe now there is a way to deal with Ming's airships." Newton looked at the sky and thought for a long time, and suddenly said something to Wu Sangui.
"What can we do?" Wu Sangui brought Newton to the tragic scene today just to use Kevelpati's misery to arouse Newton's anger.
Li Hu was very satisfied with the results of the air strike. He squinted at Yuan Chonghuan, whose eyes were about to fall off. Before, he would never have believed that a dozen airships could actually wipe out an enemy city.
Although he didn't believe it, the results of the battle were laid out in front of him, so he couldn't help but not believe it.
When Li Xiao in the capital received the battle report, snowflakes were already falling in the sky.
Technology is no different from Pandora's box. As long as you open it, new things will pop out. Just yesterday, there was something new on Li Xiao's desk. A dumbbell-like thing hung on it. As long as you shake it twice,
Put it on, and a pleasant voice will appear in the receiver: "Commander, where do you want it?" After a while, Li Xiao can talk to Sun Chengzong.
Li Xiao called this thing a telephone, but Sun Chengzong stubbornly believed that this thing should be called Shunfeng Er.
Shunfeng ears are Shunfeng ears. A seventy-year-old man naming a new thing requires respect. There are not many people in Ming Dynasty who are qualified to install Shunfeng ears. Currently, only minister-level people can install them.
Attempts have already been made to set up electric wires from Beijing to Tianjin. If the sound can be transmitted from Beijing to Tianjin, it will be of epoch-making significance. Especially for the railway department, this news is simply the sound of nature.
If calls can be made between cities, train dispatching will be much easier.
Li Xiao got on the train to Tianjin because a hero had returned.
With two ironclads and three cargo ships, they crossed the vast Pacific, Indian Ocean, and Atlantic Ocean. Finally, they arrived in Boston, a territory in North America. Not only did they successfully transport weapons there, they also helped the people there fight the British in Lexington.
The British suffered heavy casualties under the ironclad's gunfire, and finally had to give up the attack and flee in embarrassment.
Taking advantage of the British retreat, Old Washington commanded a group of citizens with guns to attack wildly. In the end, the English army was surrounded in several coastal cities. Ironclad ships were constantly swimming on the sea, and attacks continued on the shore.
There was no food or water in the city, and they were attacked by the enemy every day. In less than a month, the English army in the city collapsed. Washington accepted their surrender, and the once proud Royal Rifles of England came out with a white flag. They
Throw away the weapons in your hands, stand in a neat queue, and maintain your last bit of pride.
Washington convened representatives from the thirteen North American territories for a meeting in Philadelphia to discuss the future of the North American territories, known in history as the Continental Congress.
"Boy! I've lost a lot of weight." Li Xiao was startled when he saw Xiong Cilu. He didn't expect that the handsome boy in Xixi would now turn into a dark-skinned charcoal-headed boy.
"Thank you, Marshal, for your concern!" Xiong Cilu quickly saluted Li Xiao.
Behind Xiong Cilu, there are rows of navy soldiers with equally dark faces. These people are not ordinary soldiers, but cadets from Shanhaiguan Naval Academy and Lushun Naval Academy. When they first knew about such an operation, the two naval academies
Almost empty.
From teachers to students, everyone was taken away by the principal. Even if they couldn't serve as crew members on warships, they still had to serve as crew members on cargo ships.
As long as you can leave once, you will be a qualified navy when you come back. These people are very important as the reserve talents of the navy!
