Yuan Keli raised three questions, that is, the abolition of the ban, the miniaturization of cannons, and the three things of making a serial warship, and the apocalypse did not have a clear reply to these three, which made Yuan Keli a little anxious and super different hands covering the latest chapter. In Yuan Keli's view, most of the affairs in the southeast are related to Hao, and the people living in the mountainous and coastal areas of Fujian are living in difficulty, and the ban makes many people who could have fished in the sea and make a living look at the super biological empire. And those bold people like Zheng Zhilong can live very freely, not to mention that the red-haired foreigners still occupy Taiwan, which is related to the policy of the imperial court.

If the Northeast Military Region was the first to hand over regional defense to the local governor, the Southeast Military Region was the second to do so, and as soon as Yuan Keli arrived in Fuzhou, he told Zhang Jing'an about the importance of coastal defense, and asked him to draw elite troops from the southeastern provinces to form a naval division, and the local defense could be handed over to the governor, with the aim of focusing on cracking down on and eliminating pirates and waiting for opportunities to expel the red-haired foreigners occupying Taiwan. After a few months of understanding and investigation, Yuan Keli found that the pirates could be appeased, and the red-haired foreigners could only be expelled by strength.

Who knows that Tianqi will not give a clear answer, although Yuan Keli did not show it on his face, but the anxiety in his eyes made Tianqi see it clearly, Tianqi smiled and said: "Lord Yuan doesn't have to worry, you don't have to worry about eating and saying good things, you can think about anything slowly as long as it is not burning your eyebrows, didn't you start talking about it to the point of burning your eyebrows?" We must study thoroughly before we can be fully prepared, and the more fully prepared we are, the more successful we will be. You said that it would be smooth to chain several ships together so that the soldiers would not get seasick on them, was your idea for a chain of warships out of thin air or an experiment? ”

Yuan Keli said: "Emperor Mingjian, before returning to Beijing, the minister did several experiments, and found that the serial warship not only drove very smoothly, but also faster than a single big ship. As long as the movements of the people paddling on both sides are uniform, the smoothness and speed are greatly improved, isn't this a sign from heaven? That's why the minister risked the taboo of being burned. ”

Apocalypse thought for a moment and said, "This is a good explanation, when a single large ship sails on the water, the bow is pointed for the reason of gaining speed, and the pointed bow is convenient for breaking the waves and dividing the water, and it can receive the least resistance when moving forward. But there are pros and cons to everything, because the bow of the ship is pointed, if the two sides of the boat are not stressed in the same direction because of the surge or the direction of the wind, then it will make the boat toss left and right, and the wind and waves are many times larger than the wind and waves on the river, which is also the reason why the boat is more bumpy on the river surface in the river. ”

Seeing everyone nodding, Apocalypse continued: "In order to make the boat run smoothly, people make the boat a sharp end and a flat end, and if you want speed, you will move forward with a pointed head and ride the wind and waves quickly, if the wind and waves are strong, the people on it can't stand the bumps, they will turn the bow of the boat and move forward with the flat side, at this time, because of the resistance in the water, the paddling will be tiring, but it can make the boat be in a stable state of rebirth. Lord Yuan said that the chain warship is not only stable but also fast, because the whole ship is put together, and the water not only flows on both sides but can also flow through the middle of the entire chain warship, which is equivalent to having both the benefits of moving forward with a flat head and no resistance to moving forward with a flat head. ”

Yuan Keli said: "The emperor understood the truth as soon as he heard it, and the minister tried and pondered for a long time before he understood the reason, no wonder they all said that the emperor Shengming seems to have a reason." ”

Ni Yuanlu said at this time: "Your Majesty, the minister has a suggestion that I don't know if it can be done, that is, to put together a few serial warships first, even if it really makes the red-haired foreigners burn it with fire in the end, it doesn't matter, but after fighting a few ships, maybe it can sink a few of his big ships." If the big ships of the red-haired foreigners are to be sunk by us, they must return to Taiwan, and when the time comes, our sailors will put a large and small wharf in Taiwan, isn't it a frame for catching turtles in an urn? ”

Apocalypse asked, "What are you going to do even if you have a chain of warships?" ”

Ni Yuanlu said: "The serial warship is equivalent to using several small boats to build a large ship, and the load capacity of the big ship is definitely larger than that of the small ship. When the time comes, if you can install a cannon, you will install a cannon, and if you can't install a cannon, you will get close to it and blow it up with a grenade. At the beginning, Lord Yuan introduced that the shells of the red-haired foreigners were only smashed instead of exploding, which means that their shells are not as powerful as our grenades, so it can be said that as long as we get close to us and use grenades to blow up, we will be absolutely sure of victory. ”

Ni Yuanlu couldn't help but look happy after finishing speaking, who knew that the apocalypse said coldly: "No!" ”

Ni Yuanlu folded his eyes and asked, "Can the minister ask why?" ”

Tianqi said: "After you came back from Ningyuan, you felt that the grenade was very powerful, so you accelerated the speed of making grenades, but when you made a certain amount, I won't let you continue to build, the purpose is not to spread the technology of the grenade, so as not to put the whole country in a dangerous situation∞ at that time, it was said that because of the shortage of funds, there was not so much silver to continue to make, although you believed it at the time, but you have certain doubts in your heart, because you know that there is no shortage of silver in the imperial court now, I will talk about my concerns now, You all talk about whether it makes sense or not, the roaring priest of the online game. ”

Sun Chengzong, Yuan Keli and Ni Yuanlu saw that the apocalypse was cautious, so they said together: "Your Majesty, please speak!" ”

Apocalypse said: "A new thing has advantages and disadvantages, and if you only see its benefits and do not see its disadvantages, you may not know what will happen when it will be harmed." Now the system of the Ming Dynasty is based on the civil system of the Song Dynasty, no matter how capable the military generals are, they must also implement power under the supervision of civilian officials, because the military generals have not received loyal and patriotic education from childhood to adulthood for decades like civil officials, so they are not as loyal as civil officials and must accept supervision≈ thunder This thing is too powerful to change the outcome of a battle, if this thing falls into the hands of people with ill intentions, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not have dissent. ”

Yuan Keli listened and nodded slowly: "The emperor's concerns are reasonable, looking at the Han and Tang dynasties since the past dynasties, the two dynasties were the most prosperous, among which Cao Cao, who ended the Han Dynasty, and Zhu Wen, who ended the Tang Dynasty, both of them are some warriors who started ♀ with the army, and their ambitions will swell if they have the power to be unchecked, and they are not as loyal as the civil officials who have been educated by the monarch and the ministers, like Huo Guang of the Han Dynasty, Zhuge Liang of the Three Kingdoms and Zhang Juzheng of this dynasty, and they have always been loyal with the power to abolish the Son of Heaven in their hands. ”

Ni Yuanlu asked, "Isn't there still a prison army?" At the earliest, the emperor abolished the eunuch supervision system and replaced it with the imperial history supervision army, and the minister remembered that there were more than 200 people in our group of supervisors, and later many people went to the army to be supervisors. At present, the guards in various localities are not only counted as the current seven military regions, according to the total of 100,000 cavalry in each field army, a total of 700,000 people, and the current number of supervising troops can already reach about 2,000 people per person. ”

Tianqi shook his head and said: "The supervision of the prison army is just an early warning effect, if someone really wants to rebel, these prison troops are either co-opted or cut down the sacrificial flag when they rebel, so I have repeatedly emphasized that the supervision of each army should calm down and care about the suffering of each soldier, and show up as their supporters and family members, and seriously correct and stop those officers who beat and scolded soldiers and rewarded soldiers at will." The casual scolding and rewards of officers in the army would build their personal prestige, and when their prestige had gone beyond the status of the imperial court in the minds of the soldiers, their ambitions would swell unchecked. ”

Ni Yuanlu asked again: "Now the emperor has also stipulated that the field troops and local troops should be gradually separated, the purpose is to let them supervise and restrain each other, and is it not enough to have supervision between people and the army?" ”

Apocalypse said: "It's enough for the general army but not enough for the special army, for example, a certain army has enough grenades, and the general soldiers of this army secretly control the vast majority of people and have different intentions, even if the other 600,000 people come to fight him when he is in trouble, I am afraid he will not be able to defeat him, if he secretly colludes with a second-hand person with heavy troops, will I be replaced immediately on the dragon chair, at least the land of the Ming Dynasty will encounter many years of war, The people were uprooted and displaced, which is the latest chapter in the life of Shennong's demons, which is inevitable. ”

Ni Yuanlu thought for a while and whispered: "The minister didn't think of these consequences, so can the minister's new equipment be done?" For example, the miniaturization of cannons, and the use of cannons to fire high-powered grenades, etc. ”

Tianqi said: "Of course you have to do it, there is nothing wrong with it, it has no position, the main thing is that the control of people must be done well∞ I heard you say that there are only dozens of craftsmen who make grenades, and they are still divided into various hidden disposal processes, and the people who really master the entire manufacturing process are only two people alive now, and these people must be strictly controlled and closely protected." Your wife, Wang, is a female official in Princess Ningde's Mansion, and I should rest assured that I will protect your family by the edge of the imperial city, and another technician who has mastered the grenade manufacturing process will also arrange his family in a safe place and send Jinyi guards to protect it closely, all in order to keep secrets from leaking. ”

Ni Yuanlu said: "It seems that the size of the car artillery battalion should be reduced, and some people say that the car artillery battalion and the Shenji battalion should be combined and expanded to 100,000 people, so that the Jurchens and Mongols can be killed, and now it seems that this idea is a bit crazy." If there are 100,000 people in the car artillery battalion and the Shenji battalion, they will definitely be able to level the invincible opponents in the grassland, but they can also level the invincible opponents in the pass, and the artillery will not be able to defend the city. ”

Tianqi said: "After the equipment of the vehicle artillery battalion and the Shenji battalion are replaced, their combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated, and the maximum number of people is enough for 10,000 people. In order to prevent this 10,000 people from rioting, their ammunition can not be given enough at ordinary times, and they can only be allocated according to the amount when they really want to fight, and they can be withdrawn afterwards, and the chief officer must be changed every three years, and more brocade guards should be sent to monitor, and the number of supervisors of the car and artillery battalion should be increased to one per 100 people∞ this is not because he can't trust Zuo Liangyu, but because he can't trust the people in this position, he really makes the car and artillery battalion become someone's private soldiers, even if he doesn't rebel, he will take the troops to respect himself and not obey the command, and then his trouble will be no less than that of the Jurchens. ”

Sun Chengzong said at this time: "The emperor is reasonable, think that An Lushan in the Tang Dynasty was only a town at that time, and later some ministers said to beware of An Lushan rebellion, Emperor Tang Ming did not listen to the advice but let An Lushan take charge of the two towns again, and finally contributed to the chaos of the Tang Dynasty, the rapid decline of the national strength of the Tang Dynasty and finally the formation of the situation of the division of the feudal town, the decline of the Tang Dynasty also began from then on, the resurgence of the empire of the all-out war full text read" Do not forget the division of the future, I can not repeat the mistakes of the past, I think that if Emperor Tang Ming could listen to his advice in time and send more supervisors on time like the emperor, the Anshi Rebellion may not happen, and An Lushan may not be as famous as Xu Da of the Han Dynasty in history, right? ”

Tianqi shook his head and said: "There are no assumptions in the world, but it can be said that An Lushan's ambition was accumulated by Emperor Tang Ming step by step, I have been thinking about what the situation would be in the end if Song Gaozong did not kill Yue Fei, but handed over the entire ** team to Yue Fei as he wished?" ”

Sun Chengzong thought for a while and said: "Yue Fei's prestige in the army is very high, his army is called the Yue family army equivalent to a private soldier, he should be said to have no objection when he was killed in Fengbo Pavilion, but when he masters the army of the whole country and completely exterminates the Jurchens, what he will do is only God knows." Anyway, the minister believes that he can only restrain his expanding ambition with the increase of power with the words 'loyal to the country' on his back, even if Yue Fei's loyalty cannot be doubted, but the loyalty of his subordinates is questionable, and there are many people under him who only recognize the eldest brother and do not recognize the court like Niu Gao, and it is difficult to say whether Yue Fei will be forced to be in a yellow robe like Song Taizu in the end. ”

Ni Yuanlu said at this time: "Since you don't expand the car artillery battalion, how can you eliminate the Jurchens and Mongols?" Our cavalry is no match for anything, and the infantry is equivalent to death. ”

Tianqi said: "You started to say that you want to send people to kill the old and weak women and children of the Jurchens, I was thinking about it, my last thought is that whether it is the Jurchens or the Mongols, I will finally give them the opportunity to join like the Karaqin people, as long as they belong to the Ming Dynasty, they will be the people of the Ming Dynasty, so don't think about your idea, I don't want to kill my own people." ”

Ni Yuanlu asked: "What if they are stubborn and resolutely not to follow?" ”

Tianqi thought for a while and said: "Then don't kill them all, everyone is a human being, and it is not easy to live for life, first drive them to Mobei to gnaw on ice and snow for a few years, eat sand for a few years, and then say, tell them that when they want to come back, they will be attached to the city gate of the Ming Dynasty and open it to them at any time, but if they want to make trouble, there will be no return!" ”
