Asking for help?
This seems a bit embarrassing!
Qi Yu was reserved for a while, then said in a whisper: "Please, it doesn't mean I can't, but I have to know whether it's worth asking. If not..."
"No, no? What's wrong?" Yin Taojiao glanced at him, and said resentfully: "You really don't understand amorous feelings, so what's wrong with saying soft words? Is it possible that I can make you smaller?"
Well……
Oh well!
Hearing this, Qi Yu hurriedly put on a smile and said, "Miss Yin, Qi is seriously asking for your prayers today. I hope you will open your teeth, open your mouth, and tell me the two so-called happy events."
What? Serious pursuit?
What does it look like if it's not serious?
Thinking of this, Yin Tao suddenly felt numb and hot on her face, and her heart couldn't help but thump.
However, she quickly covered up her shyness and feigned anger and said: "With your tone, it doesn't sound like you are asking for help. You are clearly giving orders." After sighing, she added: "That's all, I'm not embarrassed. I’m here to tell you! Well, there are two happy events now, one is public and the other is private, which one do you plan to hear first?”
Two pieces?
Qi Yu chuckled and replied: "Officials all advocate putting public affairs before private affairs. If this is the case, then I'd better listen to public affairs first."
"Mr. Sir? That's fine." Yin Tao couldn't hide her disappointment and continued: "Did you know that our military manufacturing has made new breakthroughs?"
Qi Yu was overjoyed when he heard this and said hurriedly: "What kind of breakthrough is this? Tell me quickly, tell me quickly!"
Yin Tao smiled and replied: "The hard work pays off, and now we have finally built the first wind-steam dual-purpose experimental ship."
Wind and steam dual use?
What does this word mean?
ah! !
Soon, Qi Yu came to his senses.
The so-called wind-steam battleship refers to a ship equipped with both sails and steam engines.
When the wind is smooth and the water is flowing, natural wind can be used as the driving force; if the wind is against the current, the steam engine can be used as the power source. When conditions permit, the two can also be prioritized and used together to complement each other.
Before the internal combustion engine appeared, this hybrid drive method was the most pragmatic standard. It existed for a long time in history until it was completely replaced.
From this, it is not difficult to see that this step taken now,

It has iconic military significance and far-reaching influence.
In terms of naval combat alone, the stronger the maneuverability of the ship, the more flexible the attack and defense, and the more diversified the tactics, thereby taking the lead in all kinds of shuttle and evasion.
Especially when facing the wind, a simple sailboat can only move forward in a zigzag route, but a steam engine ship is different. It can not only move in a straight line, but also move against the wind. This outstanding advantage alone is enough. Can suppress opponents.
Hahaha!
The future is promising!
Seeing that he was fantasizing endlessly, Yin Tao hurriedly poured cold water on him and said: "Stop thinking blindly. This has just entered the experimental stage. There is still a lot of work to be done later, such as debugging, calibration, maintenance, etc., before it can be truly tested." The equipment is still far away!"
"Far? That's not a worry. We already have a target to find. As long as we keep going unswervingly, we will surely reap great rewards!"
Having said that, Qi Yu couldn't help but look forward to it again, and said with a smile: "Sooner or later, I will let our steam engines and ships line up like dumplings into the water in the Nanyang Sea. And by then, if the gods stop the gods, the gods will be killed. Kill the Buddha and march across the entire Southeast Asia!"
Walking sideways?
Then... wouldn't he become a big crab?
Yin Tao was amused so much that she laughed, and said angrily: "Don't be too busy dreaming, and think about it quickly, how should we test our new ship? Is it used for transportation on merchant ships? Or is it used in the sea? On the security patrol?”
"Well, let me think about it..."
The so-called ship test refers to testing the real performance of the model ship through actual sailing, and then obtaining feedback information with actual reference value.
Good designs should be retained, and defects should be corrected in time. Repeated calibrations will eventually make them perfect.
Although testing is time-consuming, it is an indispensable part. Only by finalizing it as soon as possible can we enter the mass production stage.
Direct manufacturing without testing?
How can that work!
If a large number of defective products with hidden dangers are produced, it will be the own army that will suffer in the end.
Military industry must remain rigorous and avoid shoddy manufacturing.
However, this will slow down the pace of installation to a certain extent.
Slowly, there is nothing we can do. Who said that Qi Dalang was just a college student who learned some basic theories in his previous life? If you have stayed in a manufacturing factory, you can gain some blessings no matter what.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Hands-on ability.
What a pity! What a pity!
However, he can think about it.
As the saying goes, no one is perfect, and no one is perfect. If you are perfect at everything, wouldn’t you become God?
In other words, even if you are a senior engineer in a shipyard, you may not be able to achieve success overnight.
Fortunately, I happened to meet Yin Tao, who was extremely savvy and dedicated to scientific research. Otherwise, the pace of this technology would have been even slower.
That's too far.
Back to the present.
Qi Yu had already thought of what he thought was the best way to test the prototype ship.
"It can be classified as a special-purpose 'messenger ship' and ordered to go back and forth between Dagu Port in Shuntian Prefecture and our Qiongzhou Province. This move not only tests the actual performance of the ship, but also exhausts resources. Its use of land conveys timely information, and it can be said to kill two birds with one stone. Even if it breaks down on the way, you can still use the sail to travel without worries."
"Build a messenger ship? How did you... come up with such an idea?" Yin Tao asked curiously with a confused look on her face.
However, Qi Yu looked up at the night sky, stood with his hands behind his back and sighed: "In this national war, Da Fengchao is facing three enemies, and the fighting is even more intense. However, I don't know the situation due to lack of information. Still only focusing on one's own corner of the South Sea is an act of ignorance of the overall situation and a major flaw in the military."
"Major flaw? It's not as serious as you said!"
"This is by no means an alarmist statement! Let's put it this way, if any of the three parties on the battlefield is defeated, they will directly face the severe situation of foreign invasion. By then, even if the other two parties receive information and support, it will be too late. If the information is passed on The faster we go, the more likely we are to be rescued in time. This is the importance of timely transmission of information. Nowadays, with the advent of steam engine ships, it is natural to give priority to this ring."
The Dafeng country has a vast territory, and the transmission of information is extremely slow. It often takes several months for a newspaper to be delivered. It is not an exaggeration to call it a flaw.
Of course, the eight-hundred-mile express service provided by the official route is not included in this list.
However, Qiongzhou is a large frontier island isolated overseas. There are no land connections around it. If you want to make information more convenient, you must use the convenience of steam engines.
Yin Tao suddenly realized what he said and said: "In that case, then I will do as you say."
