Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 567 The Magical Steam-Powered Motorcycle

For example, during World War II, although the British troops stationed in the Malay Peninsula had a numerical advantage, due to the complex terrain of the tropical jungle, it was difficult for their vehicles to move.

The British army on foot who left the vehicle, although carrying less than half of the Japanese army's load, moved at a much slower speed.

The British army, which could not be dispatched in time, was swept away by the Japanese bicycle troops, cut off the back road, and was defeated one after another.

In the end, the Japanese army captured the Malay Peninsula, wiped out 14 British troops and servants, and lost only [-]. This is also the most glorious bicycle troop victory in history.

It is said that during the battle, the Japanese army also stripped off the rubber tires of the bicycles, rode metal rims, made rattling noises, and added large flashlights to pretend to be tank troops at night, scaring the timid British soldiers away. .

Zhu Kezang, who is familiar with the four major military books of P company, naturally knows how useful bicycles are in military affairs!

This is definitely the beginning of the Ming Dynasty's mechanized troops!

Daming's steam engine technology is now very developed, it is a complete steampunk country, and the steam engine is getting smaller and smaller.

After learning about the cross-country test of the bicycle unit last year, Zhu Kezang asked Yingtian Manufacturing Bureau to develop a steam-powered motorcycle!
It is said to be a motorcycle, but it is actually a bicycle with wider wheels and a small steam engine.

Designed by Huang Luzhuang himself, the Ming inventor, he likes this kind of weird things the most.

Huang connected the piston rod to a crank on the bicycle's rear axle, strengthening the wheel for a more comfortable ride.

The engine is a small two-cylinder engine powered by steam at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour.

It is said that the disciples of Huangluzhuang rode it on the road, probably because it was too windy and the rate of turning back was too high. When it was opened, the chimney emitted black smoke, and the buttocks emitted white smoke (water vapor).

All the way through the clouds and fog, you have to keep adding coal to the boiler, and then blow the whistle, whining and dirty all the way.

After arriving at the destination, he took out the tea leaves and brewed them with boiling water from the boiler. He was so handsome that he had no friends.

Seeing his immortal appearance, others thought he was about to ascend to immortality!
Because of being too flamboyant, the disciple was arrested by Jin Yiwei.

But later he was released again, because Jin Yiwei was not sure what crime he had committed, and he was the person who created the General Administration, so he could not offend him.

It's just that the production of steam motorcycles is too low, and they are currently only toys for the Ming Dynasty.

Not as good as a bike.

And now, when chasing the Mughal army, the bicycle cavalry team played a huge role!

They stepped on mountain bikes hard, rushed to the front of those deserters, and then relied on more than 100 bicycles to stop them in front of those deserters.

This is only a team of a hundred people, and as long as those rout soldiers rush over in one go, they can be crushed to death with their feet.

However, those Mughal soldiers who had been killed did not dare to do this, but chose to kneel down and surrender.

Surrender this kind of thing, I am afraid that someone will take the lead.

After someone took the lead in surrendering, others followed suit because of herd mentality, as if they were afraid that the Ming army would immediately slaughter those who did not surrender.

Ever since, this bicycle cavalry team created a myth. With only 100 people, they captured nearly 5000 people abruptly.

On a defeated battlefield, anything magical can happen.

After defeating the broken army, the Ming army continued to pursue it, hanging behind Shaista Khan, so that they could not sleep at ease.

As long as they run a little slower, they will fall into the range of the Ming army's cannons.

Under such circumstances, Shaista Khan's troops fled in a panic, and a large number of people were left behind on the road, and were chased by the Ming army, and then captured by the Ming army.

These soldiers really didn't play any role in this battle except to help the Mughals consume some military rations.

Times have changed. In the face of Daming's powerful firepower and excellent military quality, the number of troops has become meaningless.

However, a large number is also good.

At least the slave merchants of Ming Dynasty were crazy about it, these are all silver dollars.

In only ten days, Daming almost occupied all of Bihar.

The news of Ming's conquest of Bengal, Andhra, Bihar and other places came back to the country, and the people naturally cheered again.

It has a territory of nearly 50 square kilometers, a population of millions, and countless fertile fields.

This is a super big victory, something to be proud of and proud of.

While the people were celebrating, those businessmen from the Ming Dynasty had already started to board the ship, even before the Ching Ming Festival, they wanted to go to Tianzhu first to take advantage of it.

According to the previous experience in Fusang and Annan, those who go early get meat, and those who go late can only stare blankly.

These great Ming businessmen would never miss this kind of opportunity to get rich, to be an empty-handed wolf.

What is tomb-sweeping during the holidays?
As long as you seize the opportunity to get rich, every day will be full of fish and meat, and every day will be a festival.

The businessman took the first step, and then a group of civil servants followed.

They need to rush to the newly conquered areas as soon as possible to complete the takeover of the southeastern Mughals.

Governing the locality still depends on these true Confucian officials.

They also can't care about the graves of their ancestors.

After all, anyone who is willing to go to Tianzhu can be promoted to a higher level.

This opportunity is rare and must be seized.

Normally, it takes three years to be promoted to a higher level, and if there is a little achievement in these three years, plus passing the assessment, otherwise there is no need to talk about it.

It's not easy to be promoted, but now, as long as you are willing to go to Tianzhu, you can be promoted to a higher level.

This kind of opportunity is quite attractive.

A large number of Ming forces poured into Bengal, Andhra, and Bihar, making these places flourish.

With the arrival of civil servants in various towns in Bengal, Ming officially completed its rule over Bengal, Andhra and Bihar.

The Mughal army was terrified of being beaten, and their opinions were very unified, so things would be easy to handle.

Shaista Khan began to report the situation here to Agra, emphasizing the invincibility of Daming, and then gave his own suggestions.

He proposed to cede Andhra Pradesh, Bengal and Bihar immediately, plus an indemnity of [-] million rupees, and send some granddaughters of Aurangzeb to Emperor Ming!

This should be the time to get a breather.

Then find a way to buy those powerful weapons of Ming Dynasty.

As long as there are those weapons, it is easy to defeat the Qing army in the northwest by equipping the Mughal army with nearly a million cannon fodder.

Shaista Khan believed that Emperor Aurangzeb would agree to Ming's request.

After all, the people of Aurangzeb are old and never dare to fight on two fronts.

However, Shaista Khan thought very well, and Aurangzeb himself was in trouble!
Because he is in a big crisis in Lahore!
