Yang Fan put down his phone and was in a very good mood. If this is done, our infantry can be motorized.
In addition to having a fleet of clipper ships that were ahead of this era. Plus this steam engine truck. Army infantry became motorized infantry.
This is equivalent to mastering the land and sea power of this world at the same time.
If the steam engine power package factory in Tula could be acquired, or could resume providing power packages. You can also purchase their power pack separately and use it for Daming.
Build a car factory in Daming to use local technology and materials to produce cars. As long as there is a power package, any model can be produced. A car has four major systems, namely engine, transmission, chassis, and electrical. Cars in this era did not have electrical systems, so car lights used carbide lamps. Light it before driving and it will last for four hours.
The power package includes the transmission system. That leaves the chassis. This can definitely be done here in Xincheng.
This steam engine is already very compact and can be used not only on trucks but also on buses. One hundred and fifty horsepower can also be installed on inland waterway ships. The key is the small size.
In addition, the Ming Dynasty suffered from insufficient grain production and suffered from consecutive years of drought. Yang Fan has been developing offshore fisheries in recent years. Fishing is done using trawlers.
However, judging from the current feedback, trawlers are still useful with power. It’s not easy to rely on a sail.
Yang Fan checked. The power requirements of fishing vessels.
Large-scale fishing boats, fishing boats with a captain of more than 60 meters. The host power must be greater than 600 horsepower. It is enough to install four steam power packs of this kind.
Medium-sized fishing boats, fishing boats with a length of more than 24 but less than 60 meters. Installing one to three units is enough.
Small fishing boats, with a length of less than 12 meters and a main engine power of less than 60 horsepower. It’s more than enough to install one.
The efficiency of steam engines currently used in textile factories is far less than this power package. It can also be used in large quantities in factories. Small power equipment is more flexible to use.
That said, engines are now needed everywhere. After the factory in Tula is taken down, we can eat whatever it produces.
Just when Yang Fan longed for his steam era, the curtain was about to begin. In the Qianqing Palace, Chongzhen received Yang Fan's request for leave.
He looked at Yang Fan's semi-incomprehensible words with interest. Watch and laugh. Yang Fan's poor choice of words and sentences was simply the source of his happiness. I didn't know at the beginning how this guy didn't get beaten into a pig's head by his teacher for writing the article like this.
"Wang Banban, Uncle Dingyuan said that he caught wind and cold in the northwest and needs to rest at home for a while. Please ask him to go to Guihua City in the spring after the new year to take up his post. What do you think?" Chongzhen asked without looking up, looking at Yang Fan's memorial. .
Wang Chengen knew that His Majesty had been alienating Uncle Dingyuan recently. After all, this person was promoted too quickly. It has only been a short time, and the man in his early twenties is already a first-grade queen commander. This can no longer be used.
Otherwise, how can I be promoted no matter how meritorious I am, I will give him to Young Master, Young Master, and Young Protector as early as possible. Even if you are promoted to a noble title, there are only two levels above you: Duke and Waiter.
Therefore, Wang Chengen followed Chongzhen's words and said: "The way of civility and martial arts is to relax. Uncle Dingyuan has returned home. He is living a fairy life with his lovely wife and concubine. He is immersed in the gentle countryside and can no longer miss Shu."
Chongzhen sighed and said: "I was worried that he would be resentful because I didn't give him a marquis. In fact, how could he know about my painstaking efforts? I was doing it all for his own good. Mu Xiu Yu Lin , the wind will destroy them; if they are piled up on the shore, the current will be turbulent; if they walk higher than others, they will be rejected by everyone."
After all, Wang Chengen received a lot of benefits from Yang Fan, and he still had professional ethics. You will definitely get things done with the money. He just came to Yang Fan's rescue. At this time, he persuaded me, "Your Majesty, Uncle Dingyuan often tells his slaves that thunder, rain, and dew are all due to your kindness. It can be seen that Uncle Dingyuan understands righteousness and is indifferent to fame and fortune. He definitely has no resentment."
Chongzhen put down his imperial brush and placed it on a penholder mountain made of red coral. He rubbed his brows and said, "It's time for him to go home and enjoy his happiness. I'm still here worrying about personnel arrangements in Suiyuan Province."
Wang Chengen knew that after the war, the entire Monan was in chaos.
Especially the newly established Suiyuan Province, which has no one for thousands of miles.
Yan, the Mongols either ran away or were captured. It's now a complete no man's land. The imperial censor had already impeached Uncle Dingyuan before, and the killing was too heavy, which harmed the peace of the world.
Everyone was taken away by Yang Fan to engage in settled farming. Planting pasture and settling down to feed livestock require a large amount of pastoralist labor. All the prisoners were taken away by Yang Fan. As for the nobles and officers, they were all sent to Chongzhen. These were the same people who had been used to sacrifice prisoners to the Ancestral Temple.
As for the cattle and sheep, they were all auctioned off by Yang Fan. The money I got was used to pay the military pay that was owed over the years. Used to fill this military expenditure. He also gave Chongzhen a war horse worth three million taels of silver. All the soldiers in the capital camp were given money for the end of the war. He and Mr. Zhang divided the rest by adding two to one and making five.
Now in places like Tumut, Ordos, Jacket, and Alxa, the vast expanse of white snow is really clean.
According to returning merchants, Guihua City has a population of only about 300 people. They are all barbarians.
In this case, only a ghost would want to be an official there.
Not only is the climate there extremely cold, but there is no oil or water. Officials of the Ming Dynasty could starve their whole families to death if they relied on their wages. Even if everyone goes out to beg for food, they won't survive.
Now, that ghost place in Suiyuan has been ruined by Uncle Dingyuan, so only a fool went there to become an official. The people are gone, the cattle and sheep are gone, and there is nothing but wild wolves in the wild. Who can we get money from?
Now whoever is allowed to go will be called sick. Either he had a headache, or he had wind sores, stroke, imbalance of hot and cold, earache, toothache, cold abdominal pain. Chibai has dysentery.
Each illness is scarier than the last. Their heads shook like rattles. Read the book
Chongzhen also had a headache. It can't be a provincial unit with only Yang Fan as its military attache. If this continues, wouldn't it turn Suiyuan Province into his Yang family's private territory?
Therefore, civilian officials must be sent. The governor, chief envoy, and prosecutorial envoy must also be arranged. Only when all three departments are in place can a normal ecosystem be formed.
Seeing that the emperor was worried, Wang Chengen thought for a while and said, "I finally have a candidate with the right rank, and he should be willing to go."
Chongzhen asked quickly: "Which one is it?"
"The former Minister of War, Zhang Wudian."
Hearing this, Chongzhen thought for a while and nodded: "Mr. Zhang is an old minister from the temple. He must be around seventy this year. He is a good candidate, but I am afraid that he is not in good health. But he can be checked by the Jinyi Guards. Let’s take a look. Let’s see if Lian Po is old enough and can still make a living.”
The Minister of War in the imperial capital is a second-rank official, and is on the same level as the local governor. The governor, also known as Fujun and Futai, has an official system of the second rank in the Ming Dynasty, and those with the title of Minister of the Ministry of War are the second rank.
Zhang Wudian was the senior Minister of War in the Wanli Dynasty, so this arrangement was a downgrade. However, you can add the title of Minister of the Ministry of War, and add a censor of Youdu and a bachelor of Dongge, and it will be perfect.
This operation is equivalent to promoting use.
As for the chief envoy, Chongzhen thought of Liu Hongxun, the former cabinet minister who had made mistakes. He still remembered Liu Hongxun's secret plot to seize military power. Let him masturbate to the end and stay home. That gives him an advantage. Suiyuan is so difficult, how can we not let go of an important minister?
"Let Liu Hongxun go to Suiyuan to serve as the chief envoy and make meritorious service. As for the inspector general, let Yang He's son Yang Sichang go. Give him some training as well."
Yang Sichang was the son of Yang He, the right minister of the Ministry of War and the governor of Shaanxi Province. He was a Jinshi in the 38th year of Wanli. Before Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne, he read Yang Sichang's "Collection of Local Officials" and other books and praised Yang Sichang's talents.
In the first year of Chongzhen, Yang Sichang visited Ruzhou Road in Henan Province. He resigned on September 19 and was transferred to Bazhou Military Preparation Road in the winter of the following year. Now he is an official in Bazhou.
Ming Dynasty established Taoist officials in important places in each province to organize military equipment. placed in important areas of each province. They are generally officials of the fourth rank. The punishment and inspection envoys are the third grade. This is equivalent to being promoted by two levels.
Wang Chengen sighed in his heart that Yang Sichang had fallen into His Majesty's eyes. It seems that the future is limitless. Moreover, His Majesty asked Yang Fan to give some support to the new Trilateral Governor Yang He.
Now Yang He's son is sent to Suiyuan as an inspector. Doesn't this mean letting Yang He know the situation on Yang Fan's side?
Yang Fan had no choice but to support Yang He in annihilating the people in the northwest.
Change.
This was the emperor's trick and a conspiracy. Uncle Dingyuan could only hold his nose and admit it.
