Iron Dynasty

The breeze tugged at his robes, and the golden sunlight hit his face.

Standing in front of the imperial study, Xiao Ming looked at the scenery outside and said with emotion: In the final analysis, the purpose of what I did is to strengthen the cultural identity of the colonies with the empire. I am not worried that they will become independent in the future, but I am worried that one day they will forget about it. His own history and culture, and regard his brothers as enemies.

After hearing this, Qian Dafu pondered for a while and said, The emperor's worries are not unreasonable. If some people in the future forget their ancestors and forget their own blood, this is really terrible. If so, it is extremely important to leave the royal blood in the colony. At least the royal family will not forget their history.

Xiao Ming nodded, this was his purpose to risk being opposed by the ministers. After all, in contemporary history, whether it is Goryeo, Japanese or Annan, their ancestors all came from China.

But the evolution of time has made them enemies of China. This kind of de-culture is a very scary thing.

The first generation may remember where they came from, their history, but after a few generations of culture they completely forget and become a bunch of complete strangers.

Therefore, in order to reduce this possibility, he will strictly demand that the education of imperial history be strengthened in colonial education.

But at the same time he will make the royal family a symbol of the colony, just like the contemporary Queen of England is to Britain.

The main royal bloodline exists, and the people will not forget its history.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ming strengthened his idea even more. No matter where the system of the empire goes in the future, the royal family will be engraved on the wheels of history as a symbol of the empire.

The two were talking when the phone rang.

After answering the phone, Xiao Ming's contemplative expression turned into joy. After hanging up the phone, he said to Qian Dafu: The industry of the empire seems to be going a step further. lathe.

Hu Mi? A very small amount of rice? Qian Dafu said uncertainly, he didn't know much about the industry. ’

Yes, it is equivalent to 0.01 mm. With this kind of high-precision lathe, the industrial products that the empire can manufacture will be more complicated. Xiao Ming said happily.

In his view, a country's industrial capabilities lie in energy, and lathes in the second, because Hu can only be transformed into industrial products if he possesses these two technologies.

0.01mm, how small is this? Qian Dafu couldn't help laughing.

Go and see and you'll know. Xiao Ming walked out, followed by Qian Dafu.

The former equipment department has now become the lathe research center of the empire, and Zhang Liu is the manager of the current equipment department.

After the two arrived at the Equipment Division, they saw a variety of lathes in the Equipment Division's factory, including milling machines, drilling machines, grinding machines, gear processing machines and so on.

Your Majesty, this is a complete set of Humi-class lathes, Zhang Liu said.

Today's Zhang Liu's black hair has been added with a few silver strands, and the passage of time has left traces of the years on his face.

Xiao Ming walked one by one in front of these machine tools, as if he was seeing the future of the empire.

After the silk-meter-level lathe was developed, Xiaguan led the equipment company to develop the humm-level lathe. First of all, we used the silk-meter-level lathe to produce the tools needed for the humm-level lathe, but the silk-meter-level lathe could only obtain the silk-meter-level lathe. For knives at the meter level, if you want the knives to reach the sudden meter level, you still need the craftsmen’s meticulous carving, and sometimes it takes several months to carve a knife.” Zhang Liu said with emotion.

Xiao Ming nodded slightly, it is a miracle that the development of the imperial industry for more than 20 years has reached the current level.

Because only from the manufacture of machine tools, it can be seen that it takes step by step to build an industry from scratch. After all, the empire has no way to obtain ready-made industrial products from other countries, especially lathes.

These machine tools are not easy, but you can't relax now. The precision requirements of lathes are unlimited. Humi and Simi are just the beginning, but your credit is also obvious. With this batch of Humi A master machine of this level can industrially produce submachines. Xiao Ming said.

Zhang Liu showed a smile. In fact, the first batch of lathes was the most difficult to make the leap from Simi to Humi.

But as long as this difficulty is overcome, the master lathe can easily produce the same type of Humi lathe, which is the sub-machine.

Industrial production is possible at any time. Zhang Liu is very confident.

Xiao Ming expressed his satisfaction, and he immediately rewarded the personnel of the equipment department who participated in the development of the machine tool. Just when the atmosphere was thick, suddenly there was a loud noise from the door of the equipment department.

It turned out that Chen Qi, Song Changping, Lin Wentao, Lu Tong and others rushed over after hearing the news.

Zhang Liu, you must give the first batch of lathes to our machinery factory. Now that we have thoroughly grasped the technology of steam turbines, we are just short of precision lathes to produce accessories. Lin Wentao shouted before he even got to the front.

Chen Qi said: If you want to give it, you will also give it to our military industry. Now a lot of weapons are still on the drawings, waiting for the production of precision machine tools? Is it important that this steam turbine has a howitzer?

My automatic weapon is also very urgent, don't argue with it...

The four of them walked all the way, argued all the way, and everyone wanted to get the precision machine tool as soon as possible.

Zhang Liu smiled bitterly, he didn't want to offend anyone, he just cast his eyes on Xiao Ming and signaled them to ask the emperor.

Xiao Ming had a plan in his mind for a long time. In his opinion, the first priority of the empire at present is to develop the navy and improve the performance of warships.

Because the current empire can no longer be a land power, but also a sea power. After all, with the increase of colonies, the interests of the empire overseas become more and more important.

Without a strong navy there could be no effective control of the colonies and no control over Europe.

So he said: The first batch of lathes was handed over to Lin Wentao. The steam turbine is the most important thing at present. If the steam turbine is successfully developed, the empire will be able to achieve a leap in power generation and warship performance.

Compared with the traditional steam engine, the steam turbine can be said to be an advancement of the steam engine, and the performance improvement is not a little bit. Even modern nuclear power plants and aircraft carriers are still using steam turbines.

Once the Empire made a steam turbine and put it into use, the Empire's warships would have to be reborn, making the Empire advance into the era of cannon and giant ships during World War II.

Lin Wentao had a smug look when he heard the words, and he knew that he would win, because the steam turbine was so important.

Xiao Ming looked at the other three and said, But you don't have to worry about it. Now that you have the master machine, the production speed of the child machine will be very fast. Even if it is late, you will not be too late for a few days.

PS: There will be an update tonight. It is a bit busy during the day. When the snail is busy, there may be fewer updates. If there is enough time, make up for it.
