Greece’s Roman Road

The two huddled together in a room, and after barely a night, the next morning, when Kemal and Hans were dining in the front hall, Hans was talking about reporting to the University of Athens.

He happened to be heard by the hotel owner next to him, and said with a face full of surprise: "So this Mr. Hans is an exchange scholar from Germany."

After speaking, he turned around and took a pot of hot coffee from the counter and placed it on the table of the two of them. Kemal said in a confused manner, "It seems that we didn't order coffee."

"Ah, this pot of coffee is in my collection, the best quality coffee produced in Congo, and I'm giving it to the two of you," the hotel owner said with a smile on his face.

"Recently, a lot of foreign exchange scholars have come to Greece. I heard from my son Dritemi that many scholars have stayed to teach in Greek universities. Mr. Hans, I hope you can stay too."

Hans was surprised: "Who is your son?"

"Oh, Dritemi is a student of the University of Athens. I heard from him recently that the government has decided to revitalize education and culture in Greece. It needs to hire a lot of high-quality foreign talents to teach in universities in Greece. It is urgently needed in China now."

"Because our hotel is close to the Acropolis (the University of Athens is near the Acropolis), we have hosted several visiting scholars from abroad before." After saying this, he turned and left.

After breakfast, Hans officially headed to the Acropolis with his luggage in hand to report to the University of Athens.

I heard that an exchange scholar who used to be a lecturer at Heidelberg University in Germany was invited to the University of Athens. President Ichios of the University of Athens warmly received Hans in person.

"Then, Mr. Hans, as said in the invitation letter from Crown Princess Sophie, please teach a course about internal combustion engines in our school," Ikios explained to Hans.

"As for scientific research, you don't have to worry at all. Recently supported and sponsored by the Greek military, a research and development group will be set up to study high-horsepower internal combustion engines, such as gasoline engines or diesel engines," Ikios explained happily.

After finally inviting a doctor of internal combustion engines, President Ikios naturally wanted to keep Hans, so he first explained the benefits that Professor Hans could get by staying in Greece to teach.

Hans was also eager to try the internal combustion engine R&D project sponsored by the military. If this is in Germany, there are not many scholars with profound qualifications and excellent academic literacy. It is completely unrealistic to want to lead such a key R&D project. of.

As the birthplace of compulsory education, Germany currently has a strong talent pool, which can be called the largest in the world. In the original time and space, the Nobel Prize in the early 20th century was almost monopolized by the Germans.

For a young lecturer like Hans, in such a key project, the best outcome is to serve as an assistant under a certain professor, and he is inconspicuous in the entire R&D team.

This is not the case in Greece. Education in Greece, especially higher education, has developed rapidly in recent years, and there is a serious shortage of talents. For talents like Hans, the research field is the internal combustion engine. This technology field, which is very hot recently in various countries, naturally requires Make the most of it.

"If you have no objection, Mr. Hans, after you visit the tractor factory, you can enter the R&D team of the internal combustion engine," Ikios said.

The next day, in order to show his sincerity, Ikios took a carriage and went to the tractor factory with Hans to inspect.

Kemal pretended to be Hans' friend and went to visit with the two of them.

The tractor factory of the Piraeus factory started with imitation American tractors, as well as a large number of subsidies from the government and the army, and established a factory in the Piraeus industrial zone, and production has been on track.

After the three of them came to the factory area, they went straight to the main workshop, a spacious workshop with almost completely connected interiors. Ichios led the two to personally visit the tractor's assembly workshop.

As professionals, Ichios and Hans had many professional terms in their words, but Kemal listened vaguely and looked around in the busy workshop.

I saw that under the curved dome of the workshop, workers held various parts, walked back and forth, and installed them on the main frame of the tractor.

"Currently, this factory can produce about 500 tractors a year," Ikios proudly said to the two Hans.

"Can you produce your own engine?" Hans asked.

"After setting up the factory, we can already produce some of our own. However, most of the engines are still imported due to the lack of technology. Recently, we plan to introduce a famous engineer in your country, the diesel engine production line invented by Diesel." The human Ichios said sideways.

In 1892, Diesel developed a practical diesel-powered compression ignition engine.

This engine has high torque, low fuel consumption, and can use inferior fuel. Once it was invented, it showed a brilliant development prospect.

Angeles personally went to Western Europe to seek technical support from Diesel and his partners, hoping to obtain the production technology of practical diesel engines.

(In history, Diesel became a millionaire by inventing the diesel engine. The reason for his embarrassment later was because he failed in speculation and had no business acumen.)

In fact, Ichios' so-called research and development of high-horsepower engines is also to put gold on his face, or more precisely, to provide technical support as a team of engineers to help factories imitate and produce qualified engines as soon as possible.

"However, you just said that this factory is heavily sponsored by the military; moreover, I heard that your country's military purchased most of the products of this factory, why is that?" Kemal asked casually. road.

After hearing that he got into the carriage, Kemal, who had been taciturn, opened his mouth~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Ikios was stunned. As an educator, he did not have a keen sense of confidentiality, and said: "When the tractor factory was established, it was It has received strong support from the military. At first, it seemed to be related to the military’s support of agricultural cooperatives. They have large areas of land to be cultivated and use tractors efficiently. However, I heard recently that the military asked the factory to produce a special batch of tractors. Diesel engines are used as power to enter military service, instead of military horses, they are used to tow heavy artillery.”

Hearing the heavy artillery being dragged, Kemal was startled and asked subconsciously, "Can tractors be used to drag artillery?"

"Theoretically speaking, there is no problem with the tractor towing the artillery. After all, a 10 to 20-horsepower tractor is used to tow a two to three-ton field artillery, and the power is completely sufficient," Hans explained.

As a military cadet, Kemal is naturally aware of the importance of artillery mobility.

At present, the most common practice in various countries is to use heavy draught horses to drag artillery. One cannon requires about two or three draught horses.

In the field troops of various countries, most of the artillery is a light-weight field gun. Compared with the field gun, the heavy gun has a long range and great power, but it is very cumbersome, and it is difficult to keep up with the speed of the troops in the field, so it is generally used for fortress defense. .

If the disadvantages of difficult maneuvering can be solved, such as using a tractor to drag the artillery, then the advantages of the heavy artillery will be greatly increased.
