Blue Star On August 5, 1866, a bloody manuscript was received in the mailbox of the Chinese government. The manuscript was wrapped in kraft paper and had no signature. There were several large characters written on the cover. No one could understand what the title meant. But when I opened it, I found very rigorous papers and experimental data.
The staff realized that this might be a very important invention and immediately brought the draft to Shi Dakai.
Shi Dakai took a look at the cover, took a closer look, and was shocked. It said "Radio Technology". A few round drops of blood almost covered the last three words, leaving only the obvious word "Wireless". No wonder everyone All confused.
Shi Dakai always felt that he had seen this handwriting somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.
Shi Dakai opened it and saw that it was densely filled with a large amount of experimental data. Finally, he concluded that electromagnetic waves generated by different currents can be used to spread information.
This is a very great invention. In this way, communication will no longer be limited by time, submarines will not become blind flies on the seabed, and naval fleets will no longer need flag bearers and telegraphs and can slowly withdraw from the stage of history.
So, Shi Dakai called all the top officials of the Chinese government over to recognize this handwriting. Such a great scientist would become a role model for all scientific researchers.
"I remembered that this was the handwriting of the scientist who would improve the torpedo."
"That's Xu Lang from Laojunshan Military Factory!"
Zhang Zhidong looked at the miracle and thought for a long time, and finally remembered.
"Come on, find out his address quickly, and let's go see this scientist together."
Following the guidance of the director of Laojunshan Military Factory, Shi Dakai and his party quickly arrived at Xu Lang's address.
Xu Lang lives in a wooden house on the edge of a small town, surrounded by dense trees. In front of the house is a barren land overgrown with weeds.
Taking a closer look, Shi Dakai and his party were late.
A group of people wearing plain white mourning clothes gathered around a coffin. Their tears fell like pearls and fell on the coffin, making splashes of water. Every tear contains endless sorrow and pain, as if all the sorrow in the world is poured out.
There is not much decoration in the house, only some simple furniture and a few dim oil lamps, giving it a simple and simple feeling.
The exterior walls of the house are somewhat mottled, but they are still strong. The windows are small, and there is only one door leading into the house. The floor inside the house is worn and worn, but it is still flat. The air in the house is somewhat humid, which makes people feel a little depressed.
Xu Lang's lover saw the director of the Laojunshan factory coming with so many people from the government, and he guessed the purpose of his visit.
"Are you here to ask about the manuscript?"
He stood up, walked out of the hut, wiped the tears on his face, took out a notebook, and handed it to the factory director.
"Xu Lang has left. The answers you want are all in this notebook."
"My condolences, Xu Lang is a role model for all Chinese scientists."
Shi Dakai shook her hand and said.
This notebook turns out to be a diary, dating from the year 1855 in Blue Star.
The following is the content of the note:
"Blue Star On March 20, 1855, the Taiping Army invaded Nanchang. We originally thought that what was waiting for us would be burning, killing, looting, but surprisingly we were given land. For the first time in my life, I had my own land..."
"On October 20, 1855, Blue Star relied on my previous experience in working in the artillery workshop to get a job in the Nanchang Military Factory. From then on, I changed from a farmer to a worker..."
"On November 1, 1855, Blue Star, I entered Nanchang University as a munitions factory worker..."
"Blue Star on December 1, 1855. I learned a lot of new ideas here, and I felt like I was completely transformed. Among them, I was completely fascinated by the Western research on electricity..."
"Blue Star's New Year's Eve in 1856. This day left a deep impression on me. This year's New Year's Eve dinner included yellow steamed buns instead of black steamed buns. I feel that life will get better and better in the future..."
"On March 1, 1856, Blue Star, I became obsessed with the research of electricity. I was born at the wrong time. I am 53 years old this year, and I am not as motivated as I was when I was young..."
"Blue Star: May 1, 1856. I have been thinking about the relationship between electricity and magnetism all day. It seems that I have become accustomed to studying and researching until 12 o'clock in the night every day. My wife began to worry that my body could not bear it..."
"Blue Star October 20, 1858. After today, our family began to eat white steamed buns. Life has gotten better and better in the past few years. It seems that the Taiping Army is the hope of China..."
"Blue Star: On August 1, 1861, the New Republic of China was established. The whole country celebrated. I must protect the good life now for future generations and develop weapons for national defense..."
"Blue Star On January 10, 1862, I was seconded to work at the Huaxia Power Plant and began to assist in the construction of China's first power plant. What I have learned over the years can finally be applied to practice..."
"Blue Star On January 30, 1862, I joined the New Party of China. Through the study of Marxism, I knew that the great powers would eventually lose to China..."
"Blue Star On March 10, 1863, I improved the torpedo's power system and replaced the compressed air with electricity. I received a reward of 500 Chinese RMB. It was the first time I received so much money. I planned to donate it to Chinese scientific research institutions... …”
"Blue Star In the early morning of March 10, 1864, I completed the important paper "Electromagnetic Theory" in my life, proposing and confirming the existence of electromagnetic waves for the first time..."
"Blue Star: On December 1, 1864, I was seconded to Laojun Mountain to research new gunpowder..."
"Blue Star July 1, 1866. This is my 10th year of studying electricity. The doctor told me that I have worked too hard over the years and have become sick from overwork. There is no cure. The end of my life is approaching. My research on wireless communications The theory still needs a little bit of experimentation, so I have to race against time..."
At the end it reads:
"Our generation has come through hardships. If we don't endure hardships, who will? As long as we eat all the hardships we can, our descendants will be happy."
After flipping through this diary, Shi Dakai's eyes turned a little red. Why has China been able to rise in times of crisis from ancient times to the present? It depends on these national warriors who sacrificed their lives.
Xu Lang's deeds immediately spread throughout China, and countless people were moved by it.
