Chapter 1547 "Come after me"

There is a kind of fog. It is not caused by the cold weather causing the moisture in the atmosphere to condense into fog, but because the water turns into steam after being heated.

Steam has been regarded as a potential energy source since the first century. On Christmas Day 1801, Richard Trevithick built the first high-pressure steam locomotive, the "Jet Devil", and successfully ran it for the first time.

Pulled a full size steam road car and it died on the second run three days later because the engine overheated.

High pressure will increase the temperature at which water evaporates, from 100 degrees Celsius to 110 degrees Celsius or even higher. Food in high altitude areas is always undercooked because the low air pressure makes the water boiling temperature less than 100 degrees Celsius. In this case, a pressure cooker is needed

To assist in cooking, or directly grill over fire.

The temperature of the steam boiler must exceed 100 degrees Celsius at which water boils under normal pressure to generate power. After the steam pushes the piston to move, the depressurized exhaust gas will be discharged, and at the same time, fresh high-pressure steam will enter to start the next working cycle.

The factor that restricts steam locomotives from replacing horses is the cooling problem. Britain is the undoubted authority in the railway industry. The track width of horse-drawn railways and steam trains are different. The latter is much wider and requires sleepers.

The construction of roadbeds made French bureaucrats cautious about laying out a large-scale railway network.

In contrast, the Austrians have become a lot more open-minded. The Bohemian town of Budweiser is the world-famous beer town. They plan to build a horse-drawn railway to connect Linz with Budweiser and extend it to the resort.

Salt works near the resort of Gmunden.

Who knows when the British developed the steam locomotive? While the French were waiting, the Germans had already begun to enjoy the convenience brought by the railway.

Railways were nothing new in the Holy Roman Empire. There were already wooden tracks during the Thirty Years War. Saxony was the main tin and silver mining area of ​​the Holy Roman Empire. There was a protruding steel cable under the mining truck.

, it can pull the minecart forward.

At first this primitive transportation system relied on manpower, but later horses were introduced to replace manpower in transporting heavier goods.

In the late 18th century, mining engineers near Hannover, Germany, began to experiment with the use of rails. Later, it spread to the mining areas in central England. The size and load of trucks were increasing, with a maximum carrying capacity of 2.5 tons. The spacing of most rails was unified to 5 feet.

, this width is just suitable for a loaded four-wheel carriage.

Railways are no longer just for transporting supplies. They are also a symbol of alliance. Horse-drawn carriages that are suitable for running on a 4.8-foot gauge are not suitable for running on a 5-foot gauge railway. This invisible barrier can be established for the border.

Effective barriers as well as tariffs.

After building Versailles, Louis XIV built a palace in the more secretive Mali-Leroy. In the garden of the palace, designers built many gorgeous fountains, pools and sculptures.

In addition, there is a toy called "Big Roulette" in the garden. Its principle is derived from the gravity railway. Three wigged male servants push the carriage to the top of a slope. The gilded and carved carriage is affected by

The force of gravity rumbled down the 820-foot wooden track, causing the princes and nobles to scream.

There are many Z-shaped roads on the Seney Mountain Road. The solution that engineers came up with is to use the weight of the downward carriage to pull the upward carriage, and at the same time, the horse pulls the chain to avoid the downward weight of the vehicle being insufficient to generate enough power. This overcomes the problem.

The mountain roads are steep and rugged and the terrain is dangerous.

There are also gears and iron bars at the bottom of the carriage. Although the climb is difficult, it is also very dangerous without brakes. It is not just the French who want to conquer the Alps. The Austrians are also designing a railway that will start from the Semmering Pass and along the

The only way that people on foot and on horseback have passed over the mountains since the Middle Ages reaches the Free Port of Trieste, where the Austrian East India Company's headquarters is located.

After the failure of the trial production of "Jet Devil", Richard Trevithick built a steam train in London. The track was circular, which was both an amusement ride and an experiment. He named the game

"Who will chase me?"

Napoleon's attempt to poach a British steam-fitting engineer for streetlights through an industrial exhibition failed and was replaced by a German inventor named Frederick Albert Windsor, who presented himself to the Lyceum Theater on the Strand in London.

Spectators performing gas lighting.

He did not lose his temper, but sent Toussaint Louverture to Mali Leroy to be imprisoned. Duke Ferdinando, the Grand Duke of Parma, died, suspected of poisoning, and Georgiana was almost assassinated at the Palace of St. Luke.

Well, for safety reasons, Toussaint Louverture had better move to another place.

Generally speaking, men would hang with swords and ropes, and women would use poison, but now no one dares to say how Duke Ferdinando died. Since the principality was occupied by the French army led by Napoleon in 1796, the Grand Duke has been in Parma

He was placed under residential surveillance and now that he is dead, many people are guessing who the murderer is?

Napoleon wanted all the Bourbon monarchs to pledge themselves to be his allies in future wars against European countries. But royalist newspapers called him a "usurper" instead of a "regicide". After Piedmont,

The Duchy of Parma may become France's next target for annexation, and Georgiana is waiting to see what excuse the clever Napoleoni will use this time.

There are no gold or silver mines in that barren mountain, so it doesn't affect anyone's interests, but a new anti-French alliance has been vaguely taking shape.

As Lord Marsbury said, the baby named Peace may die at any time, and a corpse named War is about to be resurrected.

Honor, victory, these are obviously more worth fighting for for men.

Sometimes mothers not only have to give birth to their children but also bury them, but no one really listens to their opinions and ideas.

She supports fighting unavoidable wars, but some wars are clearly avoidable, so why continue to fight them?

Her departure was seen by Napoleon as a form of protest, although it was not her intention.

He didn't force her to put the bracelet with his hair back on, but he didn't take off the bracelet with her hair on it.

This is what a certain congressman said, just propping up Napoleon's gray dress and three-cornered hat with branches can put the whole of Europe on a war footing.

It is said that the horse-drawn railway from Antwerp in northern Belgium to Brussels is already under construction. If it were not for the many swamps on the road, this road might continue to extend towards France.

How to lay railway tracks on the swamp is a problem that the British have not yet overcome, and the place that the railway will pass through is very close to Waterloo.

When Napoleon was in Mantua, he was very close to death. Not only did he fall into a swamp, he was also alone, and there were Austrian troops nearby.

For the sake of a pure princess, he put down his hatred and married Austria. As expected, there is no "impossible" in his dictionary. The premise of centralized monarchy is that the monarch must be a wise monarch. If it falls into the hands of a foolish monarch, it will cause irreparable consequences.

In order to leave a spark of hope for France, Georgiana was so desperate to protect the Republicans.

He lost his clear mind because of a little girl, and he lost the charm that attracted her the most, which was worse than his body gaining weight.

She wants to leave him, as long as she arranges for the people who choose to follow her, and she leaves him with enough dignity to avoid embarrassment when she leaves.

Although this incident happened in the "future", it also happened in the "past", and it may be one of the many things that she cannot change.

She suddenly understood Voldemort's mood, although Napoleonio might feel innocent that he had to bear responsibility for something he did not do.

He used to be a fair and restrained man, at least that was how he seemed to be in Egypt, but now he is not.

If he wants to sit on the throne on top of the world, he must learn fairness and integrity.

She thought of the dying lion sculpture in Switzerland, which commemorated the Swiss mercenaries who guarded the Tuileries Palace in 1792. Napoleon was also present that day to witness the scene.

The little man at that time probably never dreamed that he would live in the Tuileries Palace, nor did he imagine that he would be as dying as the dying lion in that shallow cave with a spear stuck in his waist.

Mark Twain said that the statue was the saddest and most touching sculpture in the world.

After their deaths, Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette were not sent to the Saint-Denis Cathedral where kings of all generations were buried. Instead, they were thrown into a mass grave on the Rue Anjou.

The kings of the past who were originally buried in the basement of Saint-Denis Church were dug out with pickaxes and thrown into mass graves.

It is said that when Louis XIV was dug up, his face was extremely dark, just like Georgiana's new pet Valais sheep "Shaun".

This may be why she is afraid of it, even though it looks very naive and lovable.

"Ma'am." Belle pushed her.

Georgiana came to her senses.

"It's time for us to set off." Belle said, "Today is the day Saint Geneviève is buried."

"It's the day she was buried in her coffin." Georgiana said expressionlessly, "Her body had been burned long ago."

"Are you still angry?" Belle asked.

"I'm not angry!" she said angrily.

Belle stopped talking.

"Let's go." Georgiana said coldly, dressed in fine clothes, and left the vineyard grower's villa where she currently lived.
