Gaizhou City, this unknown city has become a experimental site one after another, first trains, and then new things such as telegrams were born here.

Only those inside the Fu Liao Army knew about the construction of the telegram route, so this time he tried to receive the first telegram, which was not as sensation as the train test drive. However, the officers and officials inside the Fu Liao Army witnessed the first telegram this time, and the quality was even more exaggerated than when the train test drive was performed.

As the pioneer of this technology, Chu Yun must, of course, come to witness another important moment in history in person.

The transmitter and the receiver are placed at Gaizhou Station and Tieshan Station. This time, people from Tieshan from Tieshan to Gaizhou Station were generated from the people from the Academy of Sciences. This section of the telegraph line is not long, so it is easy to establish.

"The structure of Chinese characters is relatively complex, and it is impossible for each Chinese character to correspond to a code. So we proposed an alternative solution, a Chinese character corresponds to a set of 4-digit Arabic numerals, and then converts it into a code to send it out. The telegrapher who receives the signal decodes the codes in the same order."

"Of course, in the field of railway communications, we did not consider the issue of encryption. However, in the next military telegram construction, we will use encryption technology to encrypt the telegram to prevent others from stealing information after understanding the principles of telegrams." Morse, a former American scientist who made the transmitter, introduced the principles of generators to Chu Yun.

"Military telegraph lines do need to be encrypted." Chu Yun nodded.

The other officers of the Liao army, officials, did not understand the principle of transmitters, but they roughly knew what transmitters were.

"This is a bit like a transmission from a distance. Without the use of beacon, we can know the news from a hundred miles away."

"It can really solve a lot of our troubles with such a convenient thing. In the future, the Ministry of the Interior will not need to spend several days notifying people. If there are any urgent matters in various places, you can report to your superiors as soon as possible."

Some of the internal affairs officials present whispered and looked forward to the future of the telegraph. What is needed next is to wait quietly for the telegraph from Tieshan Station to send a telegraph here.

"The artist is ready and must record this historic moment truthfully."

Several Ming painters and Western painters were summoned to draw ink and wash respectively, and oil paintings recorded the important moment when they received the first telegram. How could such an important moment not leave any traces? The indifferent Chu Yun thought. This time he was the protagonist.

Although Chu Yun has not turned on camera technology now, in addition to photos, paintings are also a form of records. These paintings will definitely be worth tens of thousands of yuan in the future.

The hourglass on the table is passing by little by little, while the painter carefully turns the scene into a picture on the canvas.

"Ding bei bei bei", suddenly, the reporter rang, and the reporter focused on distinguishing the sound, and the brush in his hand copied and collected it on the paper.

The telegram came! Everyone present held their breath and watched the caller nervously, not daring to disturb him.

The reporter was under the gaze of so many people and was a little nervous, but he still accurately recorded the simple but very complicated messages such as "points" and "scratch" on the paper.

The reporter then read a booklet at hand to decode it.

"Report to the military leader, Tieshan Station sent a message, 'The train has left Tieshan Station and has 54 crew members'!" The reporter saluted Chu Yun and reported the content of the message.

Wow! A group of officers and officials of the Liao army were in an uproar. It only takes one or two minutes to receive and decode, and you can get information dozens of miles away! What an incredible thing!

"Okay, thank you for your hard work!" Chu Yun's body trembled slightly, and Mo Ming was also excited.

With the telegram, you will arrive at your destination instantly after you send various orders. The combination of telegram and train can even transfer the army to any place in Liaodong and southern Liaoning within two or three days!

"Mr. Master, our Army Department must have this telegram!" The army officers were hysterical and their eyes were greedy.

The existence of telegram is an unimaginable major benefit for them! The word "Soldiers and Speed" is not something to say casually. With telegram, what does it mean to the army! Even if they never thought that there was such a thing in the world, they could understand its value in an instant!

"I suggest that the power supply bureau should also set up civilian telegraph lines in addition to building military telegraph lines in the internal affairs." Some businessmen invited by the Refu Liao Army also became crazy. They once again keenly smelled business opportunities and proposed civilian telegraph lines that they paid more attention to.

The business opportunities of civilian telegraph lines are no less than those of military telegraph lines.

"Please don't worry, whether it is military, internal affairs, or civilian telegraph lines, they will be laid in Liaodong and southern Liaoning in the next year, and the telegraph network connecting major cities will be basically completed. In the next three to five years, a more dense telegraph network will be formed." Chu Yun said, "A civilian telegraph lines can be sent as long as merchants and residents pay a certain fee for issuing documents."

Chu Yun is quite confident about the construction of the telegraph route. Compared with the long construction cycle of the railway, the construction of the simpler telegraph is relatively fast, mainly laying lines and supplying power.

When you hear Chu Yun’s telegram line construction plan, both the military, administrative officials and businessmen are very relieved. These vested interest groups can make profits from technological progress and will support their telegram development plan more.

Chu Yun saw that everyone's faces were full of hope and was very satisfied.

"Zhan Tianyou, how is the construction of your Liaodong-Liaonan Railway?" Chu Yun glanced at Zhan Tianyou, one of the two major officials who led the "Liaodong-Liaonan" railway, and asked with great sincerity.

"The exploration work has been basically completed, and more detailed construction blueprints and recruitment of personnel are still needed. However, when we were exploring the route, the smelter had already produced a large number of railway tracks. As long as it was finalized, the construction work will be carried out immediately." Zhan Tianyou replied.

"Well? The exploration progress of the Liaodong-Liaonan Railway was one month ahead of schedule. Didn't the quality be ignored because of the progress of the propulsion?" Chu Yun asked.

"Please rest assured that the progress is not caused by neglecting quality, but the increase in skilled technicians and engineers, who can stand alone and share a lot of our work." Zhan Tianyou said.

"That's good. Let's do this. Since the exploration of the Liaodong to Liaonan Railway has been completed, it will be handed over to Stephenson and others to supervise the construction. You will be responsible for the survey of the new railway - a railway that runs across the grasslands. Departing from Liaodong City, we will all arrive at Guihua City, and even the Hetao Plain, connecting Liaodong, Liaonan, and grasslands!"
