Chapter 20: Excuses and Performances
"Damn!"
Zhu Youxiao looked at the Franc rapid-fire cannon in front of him, and couldn't help but curse.
In this era, we have entered the early stage of the era of firearms, how can you do without guns and guns?
So, he asked someone to go to the ordnance supervisor to get a few legendary Franc cannons, and it turned out that the Franc cannon imitated by the ordnance supervisor had not yet been fired, and a gun carriage was repeatedly tossed a few times, and it fell apart on the spot!
It made him furious!
"The emperor forgives his sins!"
The two officials of the Ordnance Prison were so frightened that they buried their heads and worshipped, and almost fell into the nose!
"Humph!"
Zhu Youxiao was so angry that he couldn't even speak, or rather, he didn't want to say anything.
"Spread the word!"
After a while, Colonel Zhu You breathed a sigh of relief and said, "From today onwards, the ordnance supervision and the general supervision will be abolished, and the two departments will be merged into the Ming Royal Military Equipment Department!" ”
"All the original officials of the two ministries were dismissed on the spot, and Xiao Guizi led the Military Intelligence Department to conduct a thorough investigation! Punish according to law! ”
"Little nobleman, this case, including the reorganization of the Ming Royal Military Equipment Department, will be handed over to you to be responsible, don't wronged a good person, and don't let go of a bad person!"
Zhu Youxiao said gloomily to the little nobleman standing on the side.
This guy, after completing the formation of the Military Intelligence Department, immediately promoted more than a dozen capable eunuchs to assist him.
He is good, he has his hands to do things, and he is basically idle and has nothing to do, running to say goodbye from time to time, and never forgetting to show his face in front of the emperor all the time.
Zhu Youxiao has long wanted to take advantage of the original two departments, and now he just has an excuse.
After the wanton killing, Zhu Youxiao found that now, whether in the palace or outside the palace, most people are just afraid of themselves, but they are not respectful.
This made him start to reflect on himself, did he do something wrong these days?
Come to think of it, he didn't realize that he had made a big mistake, but why?
After walking around and checking for a few days, he realized that the ministers and soldiers were afraid of an unprincipled and reckless self!
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao woke up to the fact that there must be a convincing excuse for handling everything in order to convince everyone.
It is very cool to act recklessly for a while, but the credibility of the country is even more important!
A qualified emperor, without credibility, cannot truly convince people.
Therefore, although he found that the armory prison and the general prison were almost rotten, he did not immediately tear down and rebuild.
Today is the day when he excused himself to make trouble, but he made all kinds of preparations, but as a result, he didn't expect that these two departments would be so bad!
Let the soldiers go to war with these shoddy firearms?
It is estimated that he was killed by himself before he fired a few shots!
In this way, how can you still win the battle?
In fact, the local iron and steel smelting in this era is already very mature, not much worse than the modern smelting in the 21st century.
You must know that in the middle of the 20th century, the steel smelted by the soil method was not worse than most of the steel in the 21st century, or even a little better.
In his previous life, Zhu Youxiao left a large iron pot, a ding pot, a kitchen knife, and an old hoe produced in the middle of the 20th century.
These things have been used at home for decades without any damage, but those seven, seven, eight, and eight brands of cooking utensils and knives bought in the 21st century basically can't be used for half a year!
Historically, the knives of the Tang Dynasty, which have survived and preserved, are mostly of better quality than those of the 21st century.
Therefore, as long as the craftsmen do their best, the quality and quantity of raw materials are guaranteed, and the steel smelted from the soil is not worse than most modern steel, or even better.
Except, of course, for some specialty steels.
"Well, pass on Sun Yuanhua, Jiao Miao, and Zhang Tao to see you!"
Zhu Youxiao stopped the little nobleman from wanting to speak, and said loudly.
After a while, a middle-aged man with a long beard and two young men of medium stature were taken by a female official to the small school field of the palace.
This is Zhu Youxiao, based on his own historical memory, asked the CIA personnel to find and take their whole family to the capital of the late Ming Dynasty firearms bull!
Although there are several historical firearms geniuses who have not been found, it is enough to have these three geniuses.
"Sun Yuanhua, I ordered you to be the director of the newly established Ming Imperial Military Equipment Department, and be fully responsible for the development and manufacture of artillery, muskets, and armor!"
"Jiao Miao, Zhang Tao!"
Zhu Youxiao looked at the two young men in front of him with satisfaction and said, "I order the two of you to be the deputy directors of the Ming Imperial Military Equipment Department, and assist Sun Yuanhua in forming this latest and only military R&D and manufacturing department in the empire." ”
"In the future, the three of you must work together to complete the research and development and upgrading of many military equipment with quality and quantity."
"The three of you, make every effort to develop and strengthen this Royal Military Equipment Department, and the appointment and dismissal of all officials will be handled by you!"
"Ask for someone, give it to someone! Ask for money, give money! All supplies are available in unlimited quantities, and only I am responsible! Except for me, no one has the right to ask the Ming Imperial Military Equipment Department! ”
He had met with these three firearms, smelting, and armament geniuses yesterday, and they all held all three of them in high esteem.
Especially Jiao Miao and Zhang Tao, two young people, have great potential, and are more brainy, passionate and creative than Sun Yuanhua.
"These are some of my thoughts on the development of firearms, some suggestions for smelting and manufacturing. There is also about the hierarchy of craftsmen, the management of assembly lines, confidential work, etc. ”
Zhu Youxiao told the three of them to get up, "The address of the new Military Equipment Department has been selected for you, and it is not far from East Chang'an Avenue." ”
"It's a combination of three original mansions and a large campus, and it's big enough for you to use."
"At present, the most important thing is the manufacture and upgrade of the Franc cannon and the three-eyed gun, as well as the manufacture of 700,000 sets of various armors."
Zhu Youxiao explained his purpose, "Next, I need a lot of these equipment. People, you must be bold and draw in large quantities, whether craftsmen or workers, and make sure that within three months you will have the armament I need. ”
Then, he handed over the manuscript in his hand to Sun Yuanhua, called a female official, and took them away.
And the little noble son on the side also asked someone to drag the two ordnance prison officials who were paralyzed on the ground away for detention and interrogation.
Everyone left, and Zhu Youxiao sighed secretly: "Nima's! It's not easy to be a good emperor! ”
The sad thing is that in order to calm the hearts of his subordinates, he must also learn these performing arts.
To be an emperor, you have to learn to act like a play.
He was also helpless.
