Lord of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 64 Brief History of Railway Upgrade Development

The new court, the new system, is still more efficient than the previous court of the Ming Dynasty. Everyone performs their duties. They are all new officials and talents who have been beaten for decades under the new court and imperial examination system. If they are still the old courtiers, the efficiency is likely to be slow to death.

Although the new-style coal trains emit heavy smoke, although the machinery is not as good as later generations, it is still very primitive and has a lot of wear and tear, but after all, it can be used, and there is no fear of precision, as long as it can be used, and most of the train carriages are the current ones What can be manufactured in the era, you think, as early as the early Ming Dynasty, Zheng He sailed to the west, and even a thousand-ton lucky boat, such a high, such a large ship could be built, and a few leaky boilers were made of iron, wouldn’t it work? ?

It’s the [-]th century, and the European riveting technology has already come out, and even the United States was born. With Zhang Qiang, a traverser, and a weak system that never appears, the Chinese Empire can’t even build a steam engine train like iron bumps. ?

Of course, in terms of technology and sophistication, it is definitely not as good as that produced in any handicraft workshop in later generations, but it can be used as long as it can be used.

In 1700, Europe was developing, and the Chinese Empire was desperately catching up. What was it chasing after?Of course it is catching up with technology.

Civilization and technology, thought and culture, pursue a true golden mean that dares to fight and fight.

Now the cable telegraph was invented more than 100 years in advance, of course there is nothing wrong with it, but such things are only the consequences of the system. Without the system, would Zhang Qiang have made these things?

The Chinese Empire has made considerable progress in terms of academic culture, civilization development, and technological development. Although there is still such a gap with the West, and it is possible that the pace of the West will be widened, because the West is still surrounded by vassal states. , the wars continued, and they promoted and developed each other in the wars.

However, the Huaxia Empire has entered a period of recuperation for a stable agricultural economy. The first period of recuperation is the rapid increase in population, filling the large gaps in the country, the second is the rapid development of agriculture, and the third is the rapid development of commerce. However, the fourth one is not good, because once the Chinese land develops to this place, it will be called the prosperous dynasty by later generations, and then it will flourish and decline.

The main reason for the prosperity and decline is that there are too many nobles, the bureaucratic system has matured, become stable, and began to show off its claws. At this time, it is usually the second or third generation of emperors. These emperors are the second generation of emperors. Maybe we can continue to rely on inertia to advance a little bit. The third generation emperor began to enjoy the fruits planted by the predecessors, and then the second lieutenant became more benevolent, and then the scholars and scholars began to praise. All kinds of praises are very beautiful, and These bureaucrats and scholars call themselves the people, and hope that the emperor will delegate power to them, and then they will govern the country. They are the pillars and talents of the country, and then they are allowed to compete for interests with the real people and ordinary people. up.

The emperor would restrict them if he was more enlightened, and then these scholars, scholars and bureaucrats began to restrict the emperor in turn, or complained that the emperor was benevolent and could not compete with the people for interests, they talked nonsense, replaced every order of the emperor, and then acted like a Just like children, adults give one yuan, they go to buy soy sauce for eighty cents, and the remaining twenty cents are theirs.

Of course, these people do not need to receive wages. They will be paid when they are requisitioned.Promote Jin Lin to lead the 11th Field Brigade, Ma Sanli to lead the 12th Field Brigade, Du Ge to lead the 6rd Field Brigade, He Jin to lead the 13th Field Brigade, and the remaining Field Brigade No. 13 Field Brigade to be transferred to the southwest of Guangzhou. Ma Han took over the No.[-] field brigade, and then transferred Feng Wuyu's second field brigade to the southwest defense line, and Feng Wuyu followed to the southwest defense line to take charge of the work there.

Chapter 65 Continues Research

The Chinese Empire is running desperately to catch up with the West. There are many princes in the West and frequent wars, but it also promotes the development of their technology and culture. Otherwise, war is a catalyst for technological progress and a driving force for historical civilization. .

From Jinling to Yanjing, the laying of electric poles is completed. The distance of each section is about 25 meters, which greatly shortens the consumption of electric lines. Each relay box can make the electricity continue to accelerate to the starting point of the next section. In the next stage, this is the result of Zhang Qiang's interference. Otherwise, with the cooperation of several Yuan researchers from the Chinese Empire's research institutes, without the conscripts given by Zhang Qiang's system, and those conscripts with the minds of later generations of scientific and technological knowledge, no matter how you look at it, it will be impossible. Impossible to research.

Push it casually, talk about it, and let the people below study it. After more than 50 years of research, a rough result was obtained. In fact, this is not rough. Robinson Robinson could make it himself on a desert island. Send out a telegram, as Zhang Qiang's traveler, how can you not get it out?

When was Robinson Robinson? In the 18th century, although it was more than 100 years later than now, it was nothing, because Zhang Qiang was a time traveler, 300 years later than him, and he had the knowledge of later generations. The telegraph is something that a child or elementary school student in later generations will know. Potatoes are connected with copper and zinc, and if there are too many, it can drive the light bulb to flash.

What's more, Zhang Qiang led the development of the Huaxia Empire not for more than ten years, not when the Huaxia Empire was just restored, but for more than 50 years. For so many years, he has promoted the knowledge of later generations from the very beginning. Even a fool can understand things I know.

The scientific principle in the bud, Shen Kuo’s Mengxi pen talk, was a geographer, a great inventor, and there were many scientists in the Ming Dynasty. Hold them in your arms, and then lead them and guide them to develop in the direction they can imagine.

The emperor would restrict them if he was more enlightened, and then these scholars, scholars and bureaucrats began to restrict the emperor in turn, or complained that the emperor was benevolent and could not compete with the people for interests, they talked nonsense, replaced every order of the emperor, and then acted like a Just like children, adults give one yuan, they go to buy soy sauce for eighty cents, and the remaining twenty cents are theirs.

These exams are all focused on industry leaders. If you can speak clearly about farm work and record it with the help of others, and if you can understand it yourself, you will be able to obtain a second-level qualification certification.

These people were all requisitioned by the government to help solve problems such as going to the countryside to count the amount of farmland, how much it produces, how much iron can be smelted, how much iron can be hammered in a day, whether some things made by carpenters meet the standards set by the government, and help the government solve the problems of contact with people in these industries. Task.

Of course, these people do not need to receive wages. They will be paid when they are requisitioned.Promote Jin Lin to lead the 11th Field Brigade, Ma Sanli to lead the 12th Field Brigade, Du Ge to lead the 6rd Field Brigade, He Jin to lead the 13th Field Brigade, and the remaining Field Brigade No. 13 Field Brigade to be transferred to the southwest of Guangzhou. Ma Han took over the No.[-] field brigade, and then transferred Feng Wuyu's second field brigade to the southwest defense line, and Feng Wuyu followed to the southwest defense line to take charge of the work there.

Xuanyuan Longfei was transferred to Wuchang Mansion, and the Fifth Field Brigade still followed.

Ruan Jin took over Ma Weixing's [-]th Field Brigade and was stationed in Anqing Prefecture. The generals were changed, but the soldiers of the [-]th Field Brigade did not move, and the station did not move.

The Ninth Field Brigade did not move, and the commander was replaced by Bagyalu. The Third Cavalry Brigade was transferred to the central Jinhua Mansion, and Wei Wuji personally took charge of it.

Ma Weiren, the commander of the Ninth Field Brigade, went to take over the No.18 Field Brigade and stationed in Hanyang Prefecture.

The No.20 Sixth Field Brigade was transferred from the Hubei battlefield to defend the Southern Ming Army in Shaoguan, Guangdong.

When you want to go one step further, the government has launched a three-level qualification certification. These people must be able to speak well and be able to count and write. These people are generally veterans or businessmen's buddies, old officials in the government, or have been famous for a long time Some of them are directly recruited by the government and given to a clerk. These clerks spend more than half of their time working in the government, and they are called the low-level clerks of the government.

They have no possibility of being promoted to government servants, but they can assist the government in doing things, even put forward some good suggestions, and develop good things. The government will sell their suggestions and research and development at a high price. This is the government's achievements. The civil servants above have to rely on them if they want to be promoted to higher-level section officials.

The fourth level is usually those who have read books and have profound attainments in the industry. They also have the heart of being an official. Members can be promoted to official positions, and can be promoted to positions such as clerks, document offices, book books, etc., which are equivalent to the assistants of township heads and town heads.

You Haibo’s Department of Officials, Zhang Huangyan’s Department of Household Affairs, Li Guangdi’s Department of Education and Administration, Xiao Dazhuang’s Department of Punishment, Qian Bingdeng’s Ministry of Rites, Zhang Mingzhen’s Ministry of Agriculture, Zhu Panpan’s Ministry of Industry and Commerce, Li Guo’s Ministry of War, Wan Siyuan’s Ministry of Industry, Zhang Liang’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of People’s Affairs Huang Tao, Wei Wuji of the Ministry of National Defense, Du Ge of the Supervision Department, and Milin of the Military Intelligence Department, all the departments are fully equipped.

Another: Director of Recruit Training, Tian Xian, Vice Minister of Military Intelligence Tian Bin

Members from all parties, Zhang Mingzhen from Zhejiang Province, Li Guangxiong from Fujian Province, Jinsheng from Guangxi Prefecture, Mi Chun from Jiangxi Prefecture, Tang Dianfeng from Huguangzhou Province, Gu Yuesheng from Hubei Province, Fang Yizhi from Henan Province, Qian Bingdeng from Yunnan and Guizhou Prefecture, Lin Chengcheng from Anhui Prefecture , Liu Liangzuo, Yunnan Prefecture, and Zhu Dayou, Governor of Baodao.

These people who can read books and study skills in various industries will eventually become deputy township heads, deputy mayors, or research officials. More senior officials can take the imperial examination and then enter a higher research institution.

This is Zhang Qiang cultivating talents for the few smart scientists in his hands.

We can’t always let Sebastian and Francois do research, they need helpers, and it’s too slow to rely on them to train some apprentices, which is not good for the technological development of the Huaxia Army, so Zhang Qiang has to find those folk talents from Huaxia Come out and send them to their research institute, let them learn while helping and inspiring the two of them, so as to speed up their development.

The new carriage was made under the inspiration of Zhang Qiang and with the help of old carpenters and blacksmiths.

At the same time, under the advice and promotion of a businessman or a treasurer-born researcher, he quickly entered the army and civilians of the Huaxia Army, and gained commercial and national interests.

Let the society promote its own development. Zhang Qiang is only a bystander and a guide. Otherwise, with his knowledge structure, insight, and historical knowledge, he will not be able to reach the level of other traversers in 100 years. years of development

Chapter 66 can no longer be promoted

The results of the research made Zhang Qiang very frustrated. It seems that there is no way to solve the problem of line loss. It can only be said that the message is transmitted over a short distance, and there is noise and often distortion. It is impossible to make progress. With the current level It seems that we have to wait until the nineteenth century at least. After the nineteenth century, the telegraph has already appeared, and the technology is almost mature.

The system completely bid farewell to Zhang Qiang. Several conscripts in Zhang Qiang's hands who possessed super-powerful technology also died. Zhang Qiang's half-bottle of water's electrical knowledge really cannot support this kind of research. What Zhang Qiang hopes is Europe, Europeans are better at thinking and studying than Orientals. Since the [-]th century, many scientists have been admired. Under the persecution of the Holy See, so many scientists have emerged, and their research has changed the world.

In the [-]th century, their research had already moved forward a lot, and with the rise of the Chinese Empire, the retreat of Spain, Britain, the Netherlands, and the Portuguese in the South China Sea, and the advanced ideas they took away in the early stage and technology, Zhang Qiang felt that their research and development should be faster than that of the Chinese Empire. If he could find more of these western scientists, then his own research would definitely be successful.

This is not to say that Chinese people are inferior to them, but that the difference in cultural inheritance and character development has led to the gap between the East and the West.

As the admiral of Hubei Province, Xiao Fei is in charge of military affairs. As the governor and governor of Hubei Province, he is in charge of civil affairs. Take over the No.20 field brigade commander.

Brother Zhu took over as commander of the Seventh Field Brigade, Wang Yuqun led the No.19 Field Brigade, and Mei Linyu led the No.20 First Field Brigade. These four troops are still fighting He Tengjiao's Yongli Daming Army on the front line, oppressing the enemy step by step living space.

The Fourth Cavalry Brigade of Gaohui followed Zhang Qiang, and was controlled by Zhang Qiang himself. The senior generals of the Huaxia Army were frequently transferred, and a senior general would not control a troop for a long time. This was a necessary means for Zhang Qiang to control the Huaxia Army and check and balance the rebellion of his subordinates. .

Xiao Fei was originally the commander of the cavalry battalion of the Jinhua Rebel Army. Later, he took command of the Fourth Field Brigade and was finally transferred to the Third Field Brigade. Under the command of Wei Wuji, he confronted the Qing Army along the Yangtze River for two years. When the war broke out, he was transferred to Jiujiang Mansion again, took control of the militia brigade and the garrison, formed a headquarters, and jointly commanded the No.20 Field Brigade led by Brother Zhu and the No.20 First Field Brigade led by Mei Linyu, and later joined the Tong Dawei's Fifth Cavalry Brigade and Wang Yuqun's No.19 Field Brigade commanded a huge force of nearly [-] troops.

Later, he took control of the 20th Field Brigade that came for reinforcements. Now the [-]th Field Brigade is handed over to Brother Zhu, who was once the deputy commander of the [-]th Field Brigade. Zhu Ge stepped down as the brigade commander of the [-]nd Cavalry Brigade and led the No.[-] Field Brigade , Brother Zhu is now the real brigade commander of the Seventh Field Brigade. This position will not change for a period of time, but it may change in the future.

Now Hubei Prefecture has No.20 Fourth Field Brigade, No.20 Third Field Brigade, No.20 Six Field Brigade, a total of seven or eight brigades, plus two cavalry brigades and two guard brigades.The strength of the army is almost comparable to that of the army led by Wei Wuji along the Yangtze River.

Zhang Qiang wondered if he should adjust it. After thinking about it, Zhang Qiang felt that Xuanyuan Longfei's troops and Wei Wuji's troops in the southwest should be swapped. The troops in the two places hadn't changed their commanders or pulled them down for a long time.

Xiao Fei was originally the commander of the cavalry battalion of the Jinhua Rebel Army. Later, he took command of the Fourth Field Brigade and was finally transferred to the Third Field Brigade. Under the command of Wei Wuji, he confronted the Qing Army along the Yangtze River for two years. When the war broke out, he was transferred to Jiujiang Mansion again, took control of the militia brigade and the garrison, formed a headquarters, and jointly commanded the No.20 Field Brigade led by Brother Zhu and the No.20 First Field Brigade led by Mei Linyu, and later joined the Tong Dawei's Fifth Cavalry Brigade and Wang Yuqun's No.19 Field Brigade commanded a huge force of nearly [-] troops.

After thinking about it, he returned to Jingzhou Fucheng, and began to issue orders to take Jin Lin from Baozhong Mansion to Jinling Mansion to replace Wei Wuji in guarding Jinling Mansion, and confront the Lu Guoming Army led by Lu Guo and Hong Chengchou.

Wei Wuji returned to the center to sit in command. He is the largest army leader, and it is not an option to leave the center for a long time.

Transfer Du Ge to Baozhong Mansion and let him and He Jin cooperate to defend Baozhong Mansion and develop Baozhong Mansion.

The 11th, 12th, and field brigades were transferred to replace Ma Sanli's 6th field brigade, and the third field brigade, which Wei Wuji personally controlled, went to Baozhong Mansion to rest and supplement defense.

Promote Jin Lin to lead the 11th Field Brigade, Ma Sanli to lead the 12th Field Brigade, Du Ge to lead the 6rd Field Brigade, He Jin to lead the 13th Field Brigade, and the remaining Field Brigade No. 13 Field Brigade to be transferred to the southwest of Guangzhou. Ma Han took over the No.[-] field brigade, and then transferred Feng Wuyu's second field brigade to the southwest defense line, and Feng Wuyu followed to the southwest defense line to take charge of the work there.
