The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 379 Steam Engine Ship

"I am the prince of Daning!"

King Ning threw something and roared loudly.

……

"Military households are our people."

"The military attache is one of us."

"The capital of Beiping is still ours."

"What will King Ning use to fight us? If he is obedient, he can still be kept. If he dares to make trouble, even King Ning will have to come to Peiping."

Ma Wangxuan, the deputy director of the Military-Industrial Joint Office, accompanied General Liu Zhen to the south, giving him enough face.

The two are on the train.

Ma Wangxuan said loudly in front of the train full of officers.

Arrogant.

In addition to being arrogant, it is still arrogant.

But people still eat this set.

Liu Zhen extinguished all his thoughts, and completely fell to the Yan Palace, and his behavior also caused the generals outside the Beiping faction to fall apart.

Originally, Beiping had Zhang Yu as the core, Daning had Liu Zhen as the core, and Liaodong had Zhou Xing and Zhuang De as the core.

The formed generals outside the Peiping faction gradually devoured the local military power and confronted the generals of the Peiping faction.

In the sixth year after Zhu Biao's death, the layout of Yingtianfu was completely defeated, which also heralded the complete eradication of the remnants of Zhu Biao's era in Beiping.

Whether it is Zhang Yu or Liu Zhen, they all fell to the Yan Palace.

"General Liu, I used to work together in Daning, please forgive me if I offended you. From now on, we will be our own family."

Several officers took the initiative to step forward, came to Liu Zhen's seat and said.

"Wherever it is, let the past be the past. Everyone will work under the banner of King Yan's Mansion in the future. Unity is the most important thing."

"Well said, General Liu Gao Yi!"

The officers of the two factions began to run in.

Beiping Military Academy.

It was established in the east of Daxing County. The purpose of its establishment was to unify the military quality standards of officers. It was originally prepared for the new army, but it was first used for political struggle.

Basically all the real-time military attaches in Daning have come to Peiping, and the expansion of the new army has been expanding since years ago.

"The First Battalion of the Kaiping New Army, the Miyun Shixia Battalion, the Second Battalion of the Daxing New Army, the Third Battalion of the Zhuozhou New Army, the Jinzhou Battalion, the Fourth Battalion of the Yuancheng New Army, the Fifth Battalion of the Shanhaiguan New Army, the Sixth Battalion of the Tianjin New Army, and the Pingshan New Army Seventh Battalion, Eighth Battalion of the Cangzhou New Army."

"There are about 3000 people in each battalion, and a total of [-] new troops have been expanded. At present, the production capacity of the military factory is still increasing, and the gap in armaments is as high as [-]%."

"At present, the priority is to ensure the training of the new army, followed by the training of the reserve army."

In front of the map, Zhu Neng introduced to Zhu Gaochi and others.

"The first battalion of the Kaiping New Army is divided into five garrisons, three in the south of the border and two in the north of the border."

"The newly established Fifth Battalion is based on military officers with rich experience in actual combat at the guard station, as well as officers from the former Five Old Battalion."

"In the face of new tactics, there is a phenomenon of huge differences in the quality of officers. In order to improve the overall combat standards of the entire army and provide a foundation for the next stage of large-scale military expansion, the Beiping Military Academy, with me as the main person in charge, combined various aspects. The system mainly allows officers to understand various new types of armaments, learn new tactics, focus on seminars, and make progress together."

After listening to Zhu Neng's introduction, Zhu Gaochi was quite satisfied.

"Daning has sufficient sources of troops. There are no fewer veterans who have experienced the war than in Beiping, and they are inextricably linked with the palace."

"For the military officers in Daning, not only can the palace not push them out, but they must also vigorously absorb them into their own camp."

"In the final plan of the twenty battalions of the new army, Daning will reorganize into three battalions, and the elite of Daning will be absorbed."

Zhu Gaochi emphasized.

Everyone understood the intention of the little prince.

"For the military officers who went south from Daning, the school should not only take care of their study and life, but also deepen their thinking, truly let them return to Beiping, and eliminate the inner barrier between the two sides."

"Here."

The crowd responded.

The conservative Zhu Di left Beiping, and the remaining Zhu Gaochi was a radical, showing his "claws and claws" completely.

People from China Heavy Industries even went to Yingtian Mansion.

The people who visited King Yan were arranged by Changshi Mansion, and their task was to absorb the elite craftsmen of Yingtian Mansion.

"At least 12 taels of silver a month, if you are a master shipbuilder, let alone 12 taels, as long as you pass the level assessment and become a technician above level five, you don't have to worry about it for the rest of your life."

Qingjiang Governor Shipyard.

There are a total of 23 branch factories. The factory area stretches along the canal, with a total length of [-] kilometers. It is the most ambitious shipbuilding industry chain in the world.

The craftsman system of Ming Dynasty.

One month of service to the government is required every year, and the rest of the time is free. If a craftsman is unwilling to serve the government's corvee, he can pay money instead, and the government will hire someone to do the work for him.

In half a century, at least [-] ships have been manufactured and launched here, with an average of [-] ships mainly inland rivers per year.

"As long as you become a technician, you don't have to go to jail if you break the law." Some people said exaggeratedly.

The treatment is always the most attractive.

The vast majority of the Golden State's population are immigrants from the interior.

For example, many of the prisoners implicated in the Sapphire case that exiled more than [-] people in Jinzhou at the beginning were from Ying Tianfu.

In addition, the military households in various provinces moved to Jinzhou later, and Jinzhou has a lot to do with the mainland.

Countless letters flowed back to the mainland through their hands, spreading the word that Jinzhou is full of Jinshan.

For the apprentices, Jinzhou did not let them go. Although they did not pay outrageous wages, they promised to send wives.

As long as you have been in Jinzhou for five years, if you have not married a wife, Jinzhou will be responsible for dividing the daughter-in-law, and it is guaranteed to be a big girl.

Such a temptation is inhuman.

No one said no.

As a result, many escapees appeared in the shipyard.

More and more craftsmen fled, attracting more and more attention.

Ying Tianfu.

Wenhua Hall.

"Yan Dun must be transferred away as soon as possible. It is really abhorrent that this person stays in Beiping and let Yan Wangfu go."

Huang Zicheng insisted: "If it wasn't for this person, Ye Xixian might not have failed."

"The matter of Ye Xixian is the work of Prince Yan's mansion, so what's the matter with Guan Yandu?"

Some officials objected.

Listening to the quarrel among the officials below, Zhu Yunqi felt helpless.

He has no impression of Yan Dun.

It doesn't matter whether he stays or not, but because of this person, the ministers he trusts have disputes, and Zhu Yunqi subconsciously has a bad impression of this person.

"Yan Dun couldn't maintain the rules and regulations in Beiping, and let the palace ignore the majesty of the court, so that today, why shouldn't this person be held accountable?"

Huang Zicheng was dissatisfied.

"I can't say that. This person's achievements in governance are undeniable. During the few years in Beiping, millions of acres of new fields have been reclaimed. Such a great achievement has been praised by even the sages."

Cultivating new fields is always the most straightforward achievement.

There were many officials who reclaimed fields in the Ming Dynasty. The largest ones were in the areas of Shanghai and Huguang, and they left detailed introductions in history books.

"Then reward him and promote him." Huang Zicheng hit the nail on the head, and the blunt officials had nothing to say.

Promotion is a good thing, but if he continues to obstruct it, it will be unreasonable.

Seeing that there was no objection, Huang Zicheng's proposal was approved, and the censor was arranged to perform Yan Dun's merits, and then the officials of the Ministry of Officials made arrangements for transfer.

In fact, in the past, Zhu Biao only needed a word, so there were so many processes.

While everyone was discussing how to deal with King Yan's Mansion, countless craftsmen arrived in Jinzhou and joined Jinzhou Shipping Administration.

The first thing to change is the dock.

With the exponential increase in the orders of Jinzhou Shipping Administration, more docks need to be built.

Several old shipwrights brought their skills.

For example, to build the largest dock, if the original construction plan is followed.

The inverted trapezoidal ship is about 180 feet wide at the top, 21 feet wide at the bottom, and about [-] feet deep.

For such a huge dock, the embankments on both sides should have brick and stone revetments to avoid collapse, and several huge, neat and even river channels should be dug out.

It takes more resources and takes longer.

However, the old shipwrights put forward a plan adapted to local conditions based on their own experience.

"First draw the position of the pond mouth on the floodplain, and then dig down to form the pond mouth. The dug out silt and fine sand are piled up evenly along both sides of the pond mouth, and then pure loess is transported from other places and placed on top Continue to pile up and increase the height, while piling up and ramming, so as to form embankments on both sides of the pond mouth.”

"Because the loess layer is relatively viscous and impermeable, the embankment is extremely strong. Although there is no masonry slope protection, it is enough."

The plan proposed by the old shipwrights.

Although it is relatively simple, it not only reduces the cost, but also saves time. It is a typical "more, faster, better and more economical" project
This kind of dock construction method without slope protection is exactly the dock method for building "giant aircraft carrier" treasure ships in the future.

is unique in the world.

In the past, it was generally built directly on the river beach or beach, and sailed into the river and sea through slides or rivers.

The time and efficiency required to build such a large dock will increase several times.

Now adopting this soil method saves at least double the efficiency.

Originally, the construction period of one or two years was only half a year under the local method of manufacturing while producing and without the need to specially build river channels.

This is why Yongle was able to build so many treasure ships at once when he sailed to the west.

The "Liuzuotang" dock technology was lost to later generations. It was unearthed from the shipyard site, and later generations discovered this cost-effective dock technology of the ancients.

Whether it is the huge dock that has not collapsed for 600 years, the super high cost performance of the technology, or even the unbelievable tonnage of ships in ancient times, they have all received super high evaluations at home and abroad.

This excellent technology is just one piece, and with the arrival of a large number of southern artisans, many cost-effective technologies appeared in the Golden State.

"Golden State has been developing for several years, and finally has the background to attract the elite population in the south." The director of the forest farm said with relief.

Compared with the population absorbed from the Mainland in the past, the quality of the Mainland population absorbed this year is much higher than in previous years.

At Dock No. [-], the first steam engine ship was launched.

After launching successfully.

The boilers began to burn, and after a long time smoke rose from the chimneys, and the wheels on the sides of the ship turned.

The sails of the steamer were not raised, and it drove on the sea automatically without wind.

ashore.

Countless workers cheered.

The technicians of each team hugged and laughed, and some of them laughed and cried.

In the past two years, they have suffered a lot, under great pressure, and studied day and night.

Now they are successful.
