Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 41 Technology is the primary productive force

"The bed crossbow has been improved and has a range of a thousand steps. I have a new improved drawing that has been drawn for a long time, but the craftsmen can't make it. If it can be cast with the lost wax method, it will be more than wonderful! Thank you for your teachings. Thank you for your teachings .”

Li Gang was very excited and rubbed his hands. If he accompanied Zhao Huan to inspect now, he would go to Lao He to discuss it now.

Zhao Huan waved his hand and said, "No hurry, no hurry. I still have something here, please take a look. It's called a gear."

Zhao Huan directly took out a book from his sleeve. This book was so great that it took him 5 achievement points to get it out. The name was "Mechanical Principles and Mechanical Design".

In his opinion, this book is all about how to draw gears. Of course, his understanding of mechanics is extremely superficial, that is, he has learned some superficial content when he was doing manual DIY.

I can't tell why, but professional things should be done by professional people.Since the Great Song Army Supervisor is so advanced, it is natural to leave it to them to study.

Of course, he knows the lost wax method, and he learned about it entirely because he liked to do DIY at the beginning. He once made a four-stroke internal combustion engine by himself, and assembled a rail car for playing.

Of course, he has now lost all kinds of materials and tutorial video teaching for later generations. He wants to make an internal combustion engine and build a rail car. It is a dream at twelve o'clock at noon.

He saw that the bed crossbow was a very special machine. If one could combine the great killer of this cold weapon with the mature mechanical theory of later generations, it would be very scary to think about it.

Zhao Huan handed the book to Li Gang, and said: "This book is extremely precious, and there is only one in the world! It is a top secret in the Song Dynasty and cannot be publicized. Can Li Shaoqing understand?"

Zhao Huan handed over the book in his hand. Of course, the book Principles of Mechanics has undergone systematic improvements, making it more in line with the style of writing in the Song Dynasty.

But what Zhao Huan was worried about was not this, but that this book was released 900 years in advance, would something go wrong?
You can't learn from the enemy!
As a ready-made example, Xixia, Liao, and Jin have all learned a lot of Central Plains technology. Now they wear cold-forged armor with a leather lining that is very comfortable, and they go south to the Central Plains every now and then.
It is only right to ensure the leadership of the Central Plains Dynasty.

"The top secret of the Great Song Dynasty?" Li Gang flipped the book a few times, read it intently for a long time, then solemnly closed the book and put it in his sleeve.

Holding the book with one hand, he lowered his head and asked, "Officials, is it absolutely forbidden to be read by anyone? Or can it be read by some key loyal people."

"This official book has never been seen before, and it contains too much content. I need to find a few people to study it together." Li Gang just read a few paragraphs, only to find that this book can be read a hundred times like before. Books that speak for themselves are very different. It is impossible to understand the key points of this book without hands-on work.

"Is it someone from the Military Weapons Supervision? If it is, bring it here now. Anyone who has read this book must go through my inquiry." Loyalty only.

"Yes, official. I'll look for it right away." Li Gang left after speaking.

Zhong Shidao reached out to stop him, but Li Gang left, and he had no one to push the cart, so how could he move around!

How superficial!Li Gang is in his forties, yet he is still so reckless, like a child.

"Chong Shaobao hasn't spoken in the past few days, whether it's the court discussion, the temple calculation, or the Chang Dynasty. I don't know what's wrong?" Zhao Huan naturally pushed the swivel chair of Zhong Shidao, which is very normal.

He is a boy under the red flag, and he has done a lot of pushing the elders' wheelchairs.

Zhong Shidao hurriedly prepared to speak, but Zhao Ying jumped out and said: "Officials, you must never force it, absolutely you must not force it! The minister pushes, the minister pushes. You must not force it!"

What a reason!
After finally pretending to be coercive, following the example of Zhou Gong's spit shop, he won the hearts of a wave of courtiers, but was disturbed by the eunuch leader Zhao Ying.

Seeing the displeasure in Zhao Huan's eyes, Zhong Shidao said with a smile: "Don't blame Zhao Ying, the official, he is doing it for my own good. If you bump into a car, the old man will crash into this workshop on the spot, so he can report it. The great kindness of the official family? It is indeed not allowed, the minister is the minister, and the king is the king."

"The official asked the minister why he didn't speak these two days. It was because of what the official had done in the past two days, and the old man had nothing to say. There is a little problem, which is also a problem that young people should have. Get things done. It’s all very good. If the officials can persevere and persist for three years, the Great Song Dynasty can be rejuvenated.”

"If the officials can persevere for five years, the Great Song Dynasty can return to its peak. If His Majesty can persist for more than ten years without changing his original intention, it is not impossible for the Great Song Dynasty to have a glimpse of the Great Food Kingdom."

Food country?
[Historical Event Reminder: The Great Food Kingdom: The Great Enemy of the Tang Kingdom in Central Asia.That is, the super empire spanning the three continents of Asia, Africa and Europe, the Arab Empire. 】

This……

Zhao Huan's eyes changed when he looked at Zhong Shidao, and the courtiers of the Song Dynasty praised people, are they all so good at boasting?
"My Song Dynasty is rich, so I can't help commerce, so the commerce and commerce are developed, and the annual income exceeds [-] million. This is still lacking in the land of the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun. If Yanyun is recaptured, this year's income can be increased."

"Wars cost a lot of money. In the Han and Tang dynasties, they all suffered from underdeveloped commerce and trade. They had no money in wars and only relied on luxuriant branches and leaves. In the Song Dynasty, we had more scholarly spirit and less heroic spirit, but we also had The branches are luxuriant." Zhong Shidao said with great emotion.

He traveled thousands of miles, from Qinfeng Road to Bianjing City, which consumed some of his last vitality. Although, he can still support it for a while, but he may not see that time.

I am getting old.

"Officials, everyone has arrived, a total of ten people." Li Gang came back in a hurry, dragging a few military weapons.

Zhao Huan scanned around, and the loyalty of most people was within his acceptable range, and the loyalty to Da Song exceeded 90 points.Already very qualified.

But one of them made him narrow his eyes.

[Character introduction: Liu Yi: Zi Yizhi, Yi Zixing, a native of the capital, a mathematician.In the third year of Yuanfeng, when he was nearly 15 years old, he completed a book "On the Origin of the Ancients", and proposed the method of finding the root of the quadratic equation, using the method of multiplying and opening, and systematically used positive numbers, negative numbers, and integers. , Decimal related concepts, also promote the multiplication and opening method as the numerical solution of general arbitrary high-degree equations. 】

【Sun Tzu, Five Caos, Nine Chapters, Sea Island, Zhang Qiujian, Xia Houyang, Zhou Bi, Five Classics, Zhushu, Jigu in the Northern Song Dynasty ", "Ji Yi" and "Third Class Numbers" are twelve mathematics textbooks in total, and they have to study for 14 years before they can participate in the mathematics examination. 】

[China pays attention to harmony, while foreigners pay attention to separation. After the appearance of Zhu Cheng Neo-Confucianism, after the stereotyped selection of scholars, mathematics and science have become strange skills and prostitution, and craftsmen have become low-level.No one studies mathematics and science, no one explores the mysteries of heaven and earth, what a pity! 】

Zhao Huan looked at Liu Yi in a daze, and felt that the Song Dynasty that he came to by himself was the last glorious moment when mathematicians and science could still enter the hall of elegance?
"Official, is this person wrong?" Li Gang asked in a daze.

This person is his good friend, and he is helping out at the Military Weapons Supervision, just to help him design something.

This person doesn't like official career, but likes to draw, especially good at fish, insects, birds and animals.

He also helped the Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji to draw a picture for a period of time. Now he is at home, and he is specially hired to help him calculate the range of weapons and other mathematical matters. He is a Jinshi, not a doctor of mathematics.

Zhao Huan shook his head and said: "There is nothing wrong with it, but this person, you can study this "Geometry Elements" and "Tongwen Suanzhi", which are also top-secret things in the Song Dynasty. There may be many, many mathematical ideas that can be summarized and summarized. reward?"

The total value of the two books is only 1 achievement point, while Zhao Huan's Theory of Mechanics is as high as 5 points!
Liu Yi is also in his 40s now. If it weren't for Li Gang's constant begging, he would never have participated in anything in this Zhao Song Dynasty. He had already despaired of the Great Song Dynasty.

When he took over the two books, he was slightly disdainful.What good things can this petty Zhao family have?

After flipping through it twice, he found a stool, sat down, and began to study carefully.

Liu Yi, who almost kicked into the door of calculus, may get different answers from the two books, or may get nothing from the two books.

Zhao Huan looked at the others and said, "The book "Mechanical Theory" you are going to study must not be passed on to the public. Li Gang, you are in charge of keeping an eye on them."

It may take a long time for the loyalty of 0 points to drop to [-] points of traitorousness.

Probably because birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. The people around Li Gangman are very loyal. Yes, give him a thumbs up.

Li Gang nodded and said yes, he was originally a civil servant, and he didn't love these machines too much. In comparison, he preferred to help the world.

The remaining nine people are good players.But my interest in machinery has also become instinct after hearing and seeing.

"When the study is over, compile a teaching book, and when the golden soldiers retreat, the craftsmen must be arrested, so as not to be beaten by the golden soldiers with iron Buddhas and kidnapped horses, unable to leave the house, and thrown into the desert. "

Zhao Huan found that at this point in time, he still had a lot to do, such as systematizing mathematics and mechanics and making them a part of the imperial examination.

Science!It is the primary productive force!

　Slightly slightly, the recommendation ticket is handed over. (*￣3)(ε￣*)
