At this time, Europe Britain.
After learning that the Prussian troops were defeated, they quickly gathered their troops.
According to George III's expectations, after the defeat of the Prussian army, the movements of the French army were a bit strange.
They are heading towards Hanover. The attitude of the Long Yan Army towards Prussia is now uncertain. It is very likely that the Long Yan Army will not intercept the French army.
And they still needed the Prussian country to continue to intercept their enemy France. Within Britain, a meeting to aid Prussia was immediately convened.
They are preparing to give Prussia more than 1.2 million in money in an attempt to make Prussia strong again.
Give Britain time to delay and allow the French troops to continue bleeding in a battle, giving them enough time to continue plundering French colonies in overseas colonies.
Because of the development of the Dreadnought-class battleship, Britain is now full of confidence.
They were already very confident against the French forces.
But what the British didn't know was that the French obtained a large number of factories through their victory in Australia.
Some of Longyan's scientific and technical personnel could not bear the humiliation, and in order to save their lives, they revealed all the scientific and technological knowledge they knew.
France relied on the plunder of dragon flames to achieve rapid technological advancement.
Relying on this, their weapons manufacturing level is also rising.
Therefore, although Britain already has Dreadnought-class battleships, the French Navy has not been completely defeated in the conflict at sea.
At this time, in France.
Because of the enhancement of science and technology, it has also led to the development of France's domestic economy, especially the brewing industry.
The development of the brewing industry can directly affect the economy of the plantations.
The rise in food prices made France's big landowners make a fortune.
Bonaparte's evaluation of the current situation in France was: He didn't know what happened to this old man who was about to die. Perhaps the reflection before his death gave him renewed vitality.
Yes, even though all aspects of France are now thinking about a good turn, Bonaparte is already worried about the current situation.
France's problem is not an economic one, but a systemic one.
Although food prices have risen this time, it is the big landowners, nobles and businessmen who are really benefiting.
The farmers at the bottom of France are still living in dire straits, and some people have even begun to drive up prices in order to squeeze every last penny out of the hands of these people at the bottom of France.
Bonaparte saw all this in his eyes. He has not yet finished his blood studies and has not wavered in the slightest about such things.
And Long Yan on the other side.
Liangzhou Laboratory was among them, because the invention of capacitors allowed him to see the possibility of storing electricity for transportation.
But now the power they can store is pitifully scarce.
To this end, they began to study the reduction of capacitance, but there has been little progress in this process.
But there was a breakthrough in hand-cranked generators.
They discovered that electric coils could replace permanent magnets and use electricity to generate magnetism, providing greater magnetic force, which would allow hand-cranked generators to produce more electricity.
Inspired by Liu Zheng, they also improved the structure of the generator, combining a steam engine with a hand-cranked generator for the first time.
A real thermal power generator was put into operation for the first time.
This time they have improved the technology so that the electric energy produced by the thermal generator can always be maintained at the same level. Although the current is weak, the transmission distance is short, and the cooperation of capacitors is required.
But this has marked that Long Yan has opened the door to the electrical age.
After Liu Zheng learned the news, he felt happy. In the era before he traveled through time, the world became prosperous because of the application of electricity.
Countless things made with electricity can run, which will greatly reduce the cost of manpower.
But now there is a question: now that electricity is available, what can it do?
Liu Zheng knew that electricity could heat, drive cars, cool refrigerators, etc...
However, Liu Zheng only knew little about the research on these electrical appliances.
The electrical appliance he is most familiar with is the light bulb.
But it is also very difficult to produce the lowest-level incandescent lamps of the past life with the current technology.
After the construction of the thermal power plant was completed, the scientists from the Liangzhou experiment came to ask Liu Zheng more than once, and Liu Zheng was also worried about this.
"Sir, what is the use of the thermal generator you asked us to research? We can't always use it to attract pieces of paper."
"We may have other uses, such as using electromagnetism to create small rotations... that kind of thing?"
Liu Zheng said: "Is it something similar to a hand-operated generator, except that it is driven by electricity?"
"Yes, yes, it's a thing. I want to use this rotational force to make a cutting machine. After all, the efficiency of cutting trees by human power is too slow."
Liu Zheng nodded and told him: "Your idea is very good, but we have to consider our current control over electricity and our ability to reach the technical level you mentioned."
"You can do simple things now, like researching the telegraph machine."
Hearing such an answer, the scientist was not disheartened. He even felt that Liu Zheng was right.
After all, it is very difficult to realize such an invention, and they currently have very little control over electricity.
After thinking of this, he said: "So Mr. Liu, do you have any better ideas for the research of electrical appliances?"
My thoughts are light bulbs…
Liu Zheng smiled and said: "I am working on something that can turn night into day. It is a luminous thing. I call it a light bulb."
After hearing this idea from Mr. Liu Zheng, the researcher murmured: "Light bulb..."
Nowadays, lanterns are relied on for lighting at night, but lanterns with flames are prone to problems.
It often even causes fires.
The researcher nodded and said, "Sir, your invention may be able to change the world."
Liu Zheng smiled and said nothing. He naturally knew what significance the invention of the light bulb brought to the world.
But now he still has some technical difficulties to solve, because he has already mastered this popular knowledge.
It is not difficult at all for Liu Zheng to make a light bulb.
Just connect the tungsten wire to the wire and use the resistance to make it light up.
But the difficulty is how to keep the tungsten wire from contacting the outside air.
Tungsten wire can easily ignite air at the temperature of electricity.
He still had no way to solve the problem of how to insert a tungsten filament bulb into a vacuum environment without air without pumping out air.
For him, such questions are a bit difficult.
Until he recalled a report he had read before, the earliest incandescent lamp studied had air inside.
