"It is human nature for young people to be lustful. Otherwise you and that boy from the Chen family would not have made this mistake. However, His Majesty is not seduced by beauty and can behead beauties for the Yulin Guards. It can be seen that His Majesty today The strong will is no ordinary emperor!
In the future, Yu Linwei will also be an extraordinary pro-army, and will be the place where the lintel shines!
Mu'er, you have to seize this opportunity. If you don't live up to your expectations, learn the ways of those literati and see if I will beat you to death for your father! "
Guo Hu spoke while sprinkling medicinal powder on his grandson's wound. As he spoke, he couldn't help but slap it on his face to teach Guo Mu a lesson.
"It hurts! Dad!"
Guo Mu screamed, and then started crying: "My grandson knows he was wrong! Woohoo!"
…
"It hurts! Old man! Stop shooting! My son knows the importance! Besides, His Majesty will not let me leave the Habayashi Guards because of such a trivial matter. Let me tell you, His Majesty also wants me to weave training water for him in the future. Where is the teacher?"
At this time, Chen Xin spoke to his father, Chen Ce.
Chen Ce was stunned after hearing this, and asked with some expectation: "Your Majesty really means this?"
"certainly."
Chen Xin said something and then said: "You might as well write a letter to Uncle Shen in Shandong and ask him to let his children come to Beijing to take the exam for the second batch of military cadets in the martial arts hall as soon as possible. In the future, your Majesty will definitely need many feathers." It belongs to Navy officer Lin Wei."
Chen Ce nodded and laughed: "This is a good thing! After the Japanese Rebellion is over, our naval forces are almost out of use, and my father has to switch to land warfare. If your Majesty really wants to let the Ming Dynasty fight in the future, Showing off one's power at sea will really give those of us who are familiar with water warfare a useful role!"
"But the premise is that we, the Yulin Guards, must first defeat Jiannu in Liaodong this time and show our skills in land warfare, so that Your Majesty will be able to rest assured that we can train the navy divisions in addition to the Yulin Guards' marine divisions."
Chen Xin spoke.
"You Yulin Guards are all our veterans who were organized by His Majesty and trained with our whole life. If we can't even defeat the Donglu, then there will be no room for the faces of the generals like me in the Ming Dynasty! Is it possible? Can Nurhaci fight another battle in Salhu and make Ming Dynasty lose face?!"
Chen Ce said: "This time you go to Liaodong and you must win!"
…
"You write a handwritten letter to Xiong Tingbi and Sun Chuanting, telling them that the Yulin Guards' Guards Battalion is the Ming Emperor's army. This time they go to Liaodong, they must ensure that they can truly complete the first victory in Liaodong! Not because I will not let them go to war, and not only will I not let them go to war, but I will also give them most of the battle achievements. That is not my original intention. If I knew about it, I would not accept their kindness, but would punish them severely!"
At this time, Zhu Youxiao gave instructions to Xu Guangqi, Minister of War.
Naturally, he also hopes that his Guards Battalion can achieve its first victory, which will also help build the morale and sense of honor of the entire Habayashi Guards.
But he was also worried that Xiong Tingbi and Sun Chuanting considered that Yulinwei was the emperor's property and did not dare to let it suffer losses, so they never allowed it to take the main attack.
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao asked Xu Guangqi to remind Xiong Tingbi and Sun Chuanting as Minister of War.
"I obey the decree!"
Xu Guangqi also hoped that the first battle of the 1,000th Guards Battalion Headquarters in Liaodong would be successful as did Emperor Zhu Youxiao.
After all, this was his hard work. He was the first civil servant to propose military training and support the emperor in training new soldiers.
Because after Xu Guangqi came into contact with many Western countries, he discovered that the Ming scholar-bureaucrats should not fight with their own emperors, but should expand the pattern a bit. Like other Western countries, monarchs and nobles work together to develop the resources of the entire world.
Therefore, this made Xu Guangqi more willing to give the emperor more power in terms of political concepts. After all, only in this way could the national power of the Ming Dynasty be unified to benefit the people and the country.
"Go to the General Administration of Ordnance Manufacturing and have a look. In today's world, firearms are the main weapon, and they are also the most powerful weapon in China that can make the barbarians frightened. We should not underestimate it!
You said before that Western firearms have caught up with our Daming firearms in many aspects. This is something worthy of vigilance. The root cause is that the status of our Daming craftsmen is too low and not taken seriously. Now I have abolished the craftsman status and exempted the craftsmen. Banjiangyin even grants official status to craftsmen with outstanding skills, adopts an employment system, and establishes a generous reward system;
Therefore, I hope they can bring the Ming Dynasty’s weapons to a higher level, instead of catching up with Western firearms as they are now. This is undoubtedly a shame for our Ming Dynasty and our Han family. As a country with the most advanced civilization, how can we In this respect, he is inferior to Panyi! "
Zhu Youxiao said and walked outside the Wenhua Hall.
Xu Guangqi followed and said: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, the reason why Western firearms have surpassed our Ming Dynasty in many aspects is that the people of our Ming Dynasty are too committed to the past and to the present, and even in their skills they have too much faith in the inheritance of their ancestors. And timid to innovate, if Ming Dynasty now wants to use the skills of skilled craftsmen to help the Ming Dynasty resurgence and prosperity, the key is to change based on actual results, rather than adhering to stereotypes."
Zhu Youxiao nodded: "It's rare for Aiqing to have such insight! This must first change people's concepts. This will not happen overnight. We must first add more knowledgeable people like you before we can achieve greater success. consensus."
Suddenly, Zhu Youxiao arrived at the General Administration of Ordnance Manufacturing, and saw Bi Maokang, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, here.
Since Wang Zuo was convicted of the corruption case, Bi Maokang became the Minister of the Ministry of Industry.
"His Majesty!"
Bi Maokang was a little surprised when he saw His Majesty coming to the Ordnance Manufacturing General Administration in person, but after thinking about it carefully, he didn't find it strange, because as far as he knew, the current Emperor and himself had a common hobby, which was the obscenity of strange skills. Qiao is quite interested.
Of course, although Bi Maokang was a member of the scholar-bureaucrats, he did not think that the skills of making various objects were fancy skills. In his view, skills could indeed increase food production and enhance the empire's ability to defend against foreign enemies in real life.
In fact, during this period, with the increasing number of scholars in the Ming Dynasty and the emergence of various production methods, there were more and more various ideas. Especially after Wang Yangming, some scholar-officials still clung to Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism. , some came up with various new ideas based on mind science, and some carried forward qi science, and there were also many scholar-officials like Xu Guangqi and Bi Maokang who began to pay attention to science and technology.
And for this reason, Zhu Youxiao knew that the entire group of scholar-officials in the Ming Dynasty had never been a solid whole, and what he, the emperor, had to do was to take advantage of this and win over the scholar-officials who could help the Ming Dynasty in terms of ideological concepts to fight against those who were not ideologically beneficial. The powerful group of scholar-bureaucrats in the Ming Dynasty.
Colonel Zhu You nodded to Bi Maokang and said: "I will go to the government office here to change into civilian clothes first, and then you will take me to the Musket Bureau to have a look."
Zhu Youxiao divided the General Administration of Armament Manufacturing into the Musket Bureau, the Artillery Bureau, the Gunpowder Bureau, the Chariot Bureau, and the Machinery Research and Development Bureau.
The Musket Bureau is a place specializing in the production of firearms.
"yes!"
Bi Maokang took Zhu Youxiao to the Musket Bureau first.
As soon as Zhu Youxiao arrived, he looked at these craftsmen who were actively tapping the gun barrels very seriously.
The current gun barrel forging in the Ming Dynasty uses the wrapping method.
The main steps include iron-making, plate making, reeling, drilling, combining the barrel, drilling the gun core, cleaning the gun core, installing the sight door and valve, trial setting and installing the wooden bed.
Because the forging of Daming firearms has been developed for more than two hundred years, the technology in this area is very mature and there is a complete set of processes.
And when the emperor Zhu Youxiao decided to use a certain type of firecrackers as the standard firearms installed in the Ming Guards Battalion, this type of firearms could be mass-produced.
The same is true for the machine guns and turtle dove guns that Zhu Youxiao requested to produce, and they were built one by one in the workshop of the Ming Dynasty Ordnance Manufacturing General Administration.
"Since His Majesty gave the craftsmen a piece-rate salary payment method, the craftsmen have worked a lot harder. In addition, you requested that the parts of the combined machine gun be standardized and you ordered each craftsman to be responsible for the production of each part. The production speed is much faster.”
Bi Maokang spoke from the side.
After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao nodded and said: "Creating the barrel of the fire gun is the most time-consuming and difficult. Is there any room for improvement?"
"Back to Your Majesty, not yet."
Bi Maokang replied.
