The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 436 This is the heir apparent to the world

In addition to the great development of medicine in Jinzhou, the military industry jointly organized the expansion of production this year and also collected a lot of opinions from the military.

In addition to the demand for grenades, there are more requirements for the lack of bird guns.

The matchlock technology of the bird gun originated in the Ming Dynasty.

Craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty soaked the match in special potion and ignited it, allowing it to burn slowly for half an hour.

It initially meets the needs on the battlefield, but it cannot be solved for daily use.

Especially the development of the southern province of Sainan and the business groups in the areas beyond the Great Wall.

After all, the use of matchlocks is too backward.

"There is a big problem with the firing rate of self-generating firecrackers, but the advantages of self-generating firecrackers cannot be ignored."

"Military enterprises should make every effort to overcome this technical difficulty."

The staff of the military-industrial joint office held a meeting with the technical personnel of the military-industrial enterprise, and the two sides communicated with each other one by one.

"It's not a technical problem, it's a quality problem of flint." the technician emphasized.

The flint used by the people can be hit more than a dozen times, and there is no problem with dozens of times. Anyway, it doesn't matter if it takes a while.

But the army cannot.

What the army requires is concentrated firepower to shoot the most bullets in the shortest time.

However, the current self-generating guns, because of the flint, have a successful shooting rate of only about [-]%, and the highest is less than [-]%.

Then the soldiers in the first row are useless, and the soldiers in the second row start to fire, and the firing rate is less than [-]%.

Now the effect of self-generated fire guns is far inferior to that of bird guns.

However, self-generating firecrackers do not need to be ignited and can be fired at any time. This advantage is too attractive to put it down.

"The exploration department has conducted geographical surveys across the country and found many high-quality mining areas. Only in the field of flint mines, no good mineral areas have been found."

"Can't it be refined?" asked the staff of the Military-Industrial Joint Office.

The technician shook his head.

The other side is talking in layman's terms.

"Can you find a substitute?"

"Among the collected alchemy techniques, we found something that is easy to burn. We are exploring and researching it, but it is very rare. I am afraid that even if there is a new discovery, it will be difficult to use it in a short time."

The technician said politely.

It's actually red phosphorus.

Red phosphorus can be obtained through ore.

Red phosphorite was first used in large quantities in Sweden, while China's phosphorite is mainly concentrated in the Yunnan-Guizhou-Sichuan area, so China's discovery and use of red phosphorite is relatively late, and it is already modern.

"We have such a big Ming, isn't there a place with high-quality flint." The staff of the Military-Industrial Joint Office said angrily.

The technicians have technically denied the solution that can solve the problem in the short term, so it is necessary to find high-quality flint ore sources now.

"It may or may not exist in the Ming Dynasty, or it may exist in other areas, but no matter what, it needs to be discovered by colleagues in the exploration department. Only after it is discovered, even if it is in other areas, can we grab it, so technology." The staff shrugged, "Currently we can only count on the Investigation Department."

"What do you mean by robbing? Our Daming never robs other people's things, we only trade with others."

The staff of the Military-Industrial Joint Office have relatively high political consciousness, understand the art of speaking, and point to technical personnel.

Technicians don't care.

When the technicians were hopeless, great news came from Huguang Province.

The staff of the Exploration Department discovered a high-quality flint mining area in the south of Huguang, where the flint quality is very good.

Upon receiving this good news, the steward of the Military-Industrial Joint Office immediately set off for the southern part of Huguang.

"It was pointed out by the little prince."

"The little prince said that since he couldn't find it in the north and the Central Plains, he would go to the south to look for it vigorously. He proposed to start with Huguang Province, but he didn't expect to find it in Huguang Province."

The staff of the Exploration Department went over mountains and mountains.

They will be accompanied by sergeants.

"The little prince has a destiny, so everything can be done with half the effort." The manager of the military-industrial joint office was amazed.

The news of finding high-quality flint ore was spread by the people below.

All kinds of remarks about the destiny of the little prince are taken seriously by the people of Beiping, and they all think it is right.

Zhu Gaochi smiled embarrassedly after hearing this.

The shitty fate added to the body is just the result of later generations. He happened to know that Hunan has high-quality flint.

This kind of thing, sometimes it's just luck.

The Japanese dug all over the three eastern provinces but failed to find oil, but New China found it.

Daqing Oilfield was discovered in [-] and developed and constructed in [-].

Under extremely difficult conditions, in just over three years, nearly 200 million tons of crude oil were produced, achieving high and stable production of more than 5000 million tons for 27 consecutive years, changing the development layout of China's petroleum industry and getting rid of China's poor oil and backwardness hat of.

Let's just say that Japanese people are not angry.

Before the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, that is, in 550, Japan imported [-] million tons of oil from the United States.

In the late World War II, under the embargo of the United Kingdom and the United States, Japan relied on its domestic reserves of several million tons of oil to save and save more than two years of consumption.

The Joint Office of Military Business and the Joint Office of Military Industry came forward to place orders with merchants, and the merchants went to the south of Huguang to open flint mines.

Hop Kee Firm had no choice but to give up. They didn't have a deep network of connections in the Mainland, and they couldn't compare to the business groups from the Mainland.

And Zhu Gaochi's letter also arrived at Yingtian Mansion.

He told Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di about the various changes and responses in Beiping.

At this time, Zhu Di had already begun to show his face in public in Ying Tianfu.

The opposition was loud.

"Chi'er requests to open the port of Yingtian Prefecture, establish a special economic zone in Shanghai County of Songjiang Prefecture, and promote the business circle of Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Di became thinner, and the desk in front of him was full of memorials and official documents.

Zhu Yuanzhang was lying on the couch, his face was much ruddy.

"If he wants to drive, let him drive."

The corners of Zhu Di's mouth trembled.

The father is too kind to his grandson.

"But Yingtianfu's navy is stationed in Shanghai County, should the navy be transferred?"

"Everyone is called the Navy, what to do with the Navy that you have gathered together, why not go north to fight with the two navy of others."

Zhu Yuanzhang sat up and cursed the officials loudly.

"There are some things that you can't learn well. If you can't fight, what are you afraid of? Just follow suit. They are good, they know how to call all day long."

Hearing his father's scolding, Zhu Di was speechless.

Put it lightly.

Zhu Di looked at the memorial on the case table, and he must be partial to his son.

The emperor's grandson below rebelled, the emperor above cooperated, and there was a vassal king sitting in charge. What can the officials in the middle do.

"If you can't win a war, what's the use of shouting loudly."

"Your son was able to win battles, so he was able to move forward and retreat with ease. With a little compromise, he won a large number of officials."

Although Zhu Yuanzhang changed his mind, he was inevitably upset when he saw that his official system was so powerless to deal with it.

In the past, he lacked energy and thought about Daming's survival, so he simply gave up.

Now he eats and sleeps well, his head is not dizzy, his eyes are not dazzled, and he is full of energy. Zhu Yuanzhang can't see many things again.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival in Beiping, the resistance attitude of officials in various provinces was greatly reduced, especially in the cabinet established in Beiping, many officials voluntarily joined.

On the other hand, Ying Tianfu is here.

Everything is still fighting among ourselves.

In fact, it was also difficult for Zhu Yuanzhang to force others.

In the current situation, officials who are not fools, they can't do much, and they don't have the strength to turn the table.

Following Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zhu Di also proposed an idea that had been born a long time ago: "My ministers also want to form a cabinet."

The cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty was officially created by Zhu Di.

One is not as energetic as Zhu Yuanzhang, and he can personally approve everything big and small, and the other is that Zhu Di is more busy with the military and needs a cabinet to be the emperor's assistant.

The cabinet discusses state affairs, and Zhu Di decides whether to adopt the result of the discussion.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Zhu Di, "You have only governed the country for less than a year, and you are going to speculate and play tricks?"

"My son doesn't dare."

Zhu Di smiled wryly.

He really understood big brother.

This is not a job for humans.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Di, who was a little thinner, and began to meditate. Soon, Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said.

"Officials are not trustworthy. If you delegate one point of power today, the officials will be able to slack off by three points. In the end, it will be the people all over the world who will suffer."

But Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say anything dead.

"Since your son has implemented the cabinet, let's see the results of Beiping first. Wait a few months for him to come to Yingtianfu, and you father and son will come to discuss this matter."

Although Zhu Yuanzhang felt better, he was 70 years old after all, and he didn't know how long he could live.

"We are very satisfied with his affairs in Beiping. No one thought that he would compromise, and he understands the principle of compromise. We are very relieved of him."

Zhu Di smiled.

soon.

The decree of the Shanghai County Navy's relocation of the station was issued to the Ministry of War.

Minister of the Ministry of War Ru Yu looked at the eunuch's edict and was speechless for a long time.

After hearing the news, Qi Tai, the left servant of the Ministry of War, hurried over and confirmed to Ru Yuan whether it was true.

"indeed so."

Ruyu nodded.

Qi Tai couldn't help but said: "What is this? State affairs have become my own play."

"forget it."

Ru Yuan sighed.

Huang Zicheng's exclusion of him, and the attitude of the emperor's grandson favoring Huang Zicheng, all made Ru Yu feel depressed.

Qi Tai didn't know what to say.

There are saints pressing down on them. They just want to contribute to the emperor's grandson, but they don't know where to exert their force.

The sailors who were finally reorganized were transferred away as soon as they said they would be transferred, just to make way for Prince Yan.

I'm afraid the public opinion that the sage has an easy-to-store heart has finally calmed down, and this time it will revive again immediately.

Qi Tai was confused, and he didn't know what to do.

"Some people say that when the railway between Beiping and the capital is open to traffic, it is the time when Prince Yan enters the capital. What do you think?"

Qi Tai did not answer Ru Xun's inquiry.

He didn't even know what the future of the emperor's grandson would be like, this is the crown prince who announced to the world.
