Zhu Di was going to stay at the farm for dinner on this trip, but he wanted to go back, and no one dared to say no, so the staff hurriedly packed up the honor guard and set off to return to the palace.

Although Zhu Di looked a little uncomfortable, Zhu Zhanji knew very well that the invention of science and technology and the future of him, the emperor and grandson, had overwhelmed Zhu Gaoxu on the scale.

Since he doesn't punish himself, then obviously it's the same thing, and Zhu Gaoxu's good days will come to an end.

After this incident, Zhu Di will definitely not let Zhu Gaoxu be a-stirring stick in the capital again.

Soon after they left, Ji Gang rode a horse to the farm.

Seeing that Zhu Zhanji was still filling out the form in front of the case as if nothing happened, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Your Highness, it is reported that Your Majesty is not very happy today......

Zhu Zhanji knew that he was here to test him, so he smiled and said, "King Han has made such a big scandal, can he be happy?" ”

Ji Gang was embarrassed, knowing that Zhu Zhanji didn't like to go around in circles, so he simply asked directly: "Your Majesty originally planned to eat at the farm, why did you leave again?" ”

Although Zhu Zhanji now regards Ji Gang as a confidant, he will not tell him some things, but just said: "Don't worry, the imperial grandfather has already said that he will not pursue it again, so don't worry." ”

Ji Gang is also an old fox, understood the meaning behind Zhu Zhanji's words, and said with a smile: "In other words, Your Majesty knows that this matter was instructed by you, but you are unwilling to pursue it, which means that King Han is going to be unlucky." ”

Zhu Zhanji snorted, nodded and said, "You came just in time, there is one thing I want you to send someone to check." ”

"Your Highness, please command." Knowing that he would not have it, Ji Gang breathed a sigh of relief, and his mood was much lighter.

"Liaodong General Liu Jiang is very fond of this person, and he has a lot of praise for this person in the information, and he wants you to send someone to Liaodong to confirm this person's every move since Yongle took office in the ninth year."

Ji Gang immediately nodded in response: "When the minister goes back, let people investigate, it just so happens that the Liaodong spy is in the shift change season again, and this move will not attract the attention of others." ”

The establishment of the Ming Dynasty's naval divisions was chaotic, some were under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, some were under the jurisdiction of the local government, and some were under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, so the situation of inconsistent military orders was very serious.

Like the Liaodong region, the naval division is under the jurisdiction of the general army.

As soon as Liu Jiang Yongle took office nine years ago, he inspected coastal defense and stepped up the construction of coastal defense facilities. Seven beacons were built in Lushunkou, Wanghaipot, Left Eye, Right Eye, Xishazhou, Sanshou Mountain, Shantou and other places, and troops were sent to defend them to prevent Japanese invaders.

Wanghaipot is located in the hinterland of Jinzhou, located in the northeast of Jinzhou City 3 kilometers on the Jinding Mountain, the terrain here is gentle and high, the small black mountain stands behind it, the big monk mountain is located in its southwest, ascends on it, the coastal islands, take in the panoramic view, so it is called Wanghaipot.

At the foot of Wanghaipot Mountain is Jinpi Avenue (Jinzhou to Jiuliancheng trunk line), which is the only way for the coastal to lead to the interior in ancient times, and can be described as a throat fortress. This area benefited from the benefits of the Qingyun River, with fertile fields and dense and rich villages, and was one of the most economically prosperous areas in Jinzhou in the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, it became the "hardest hit area" for the robberies of the Japanese invaders, and it was looted by the Japanese robbers many times during the Hongwu years. After renovation, five beacon fire contact lines were built with Jinzhou City as the center, Wanghai Pot was the center of one side, and eighteen piers and frames were subordinated.

This man is not only capable, but also good at coordinating the relations of all parties, and under his leadership, in recent years, Liaodong has been united, and there is no situation in which various arms of the armed forces in other regions compete with each other.

When Zhu Zhanji organized the navy, there was no shortage of middle-level cadres, because the formation of the naval division was originally based on the policy of small and medium-sized stragglers, and there were many generals who could lead four or five thousand men to fight.

However, because the size of the water division is a group of four or five thousand people, there is a great shortage of high-ranking generals, and this Liu Jiang is the candidate he is optimistic about as the deputy commander.

Today's commander-in-chief does not have a rank, it belongs to the dispatch officer, and most of this position belongs to the part-time position. For example, the admiral is concurrent, or the general who has received the general's seal is concurrently, Liu Jiang is the governor of the left capital of the Chinese army, and he is also the chief military officer.

In this Northern Expedition, Liu Jiang served as the vanguard officer of the army, although he did not achieve much success, but the march and combat had its own rules.

Of course, he can't get into Zhu Zhanji's eyes on this alone, and more importantly, this one can not only fight on land, but also be good at water warfare, and be better at coordination.

Therefore, several advantages were concentrated, and he became one of the generals that Zhu Zhanji admired the most.

When the navy was first established, he did not dare to wear small shoes for Zhu Zhanji, but the governor's offices of the five armed forces, and even the localities, would definitely wear small shoes for the navy. At this time, a veteran with qualifications and prestige is needed to mediate.

Because Zhu Zhanji himself was familiar with the more effective military system of later generations, it was not difficult to establish a system. But no matter how good the system is, someone has to implement it, and Liu Jiang is the executor he chooses.

After having lunch with Zhu Zhanji, Ji Gang left the farm again.

Yang Zhangde was in the classroom of the young army, watching Ji Gang leave in a chic manner from a distance, and he was jealous. However, he could only let out a long sigh and pay attention to the "Special Operations Manual for the Market Area" in his hand again.

In his life, he never imagined that one day he would sit in class and study a book carefully.

However, Taisun said that if you don't study, you will never be productive in the future, and if you want to be an official and a big official, you must study hard.

Moreover, the Young Army never taught the Four Books and the Five Classics, but taught the soldiers how to march at night, how to perform different tactics in different environments, as well as military leadership, astronomy and geography and other common sense.

And the young army's B-word company has basically been released, and they are more responsible for teaching tasks, and Yang Zhangde can only study with a group of fifteen or sixteen-year-old children.

He can't do without work, because when it comes to the real exam, in addition to his skills, he can't test a bunch of children in all other aspects.

Compared with Yang Zhangde, who is extremely unaccustomed, Ma Di has a feeling of being at home in the young army.

In the classroom, all he learned was what he was interested in, and he also acted as a math teacher to teach math to the young army.

After school, he followed his uncle to do handicrafts, which was his favorite, and he felt an incomparable sense of satisfaction watching the parts being made, combined, and turned into a machine.

In recent days, he's focused on the glider, wondering what material to use to get it flying.

It needs to be light, but it needs to be strong, and it needs to be not only strong, but also flexible.

Although he still doesn't understand the force and reaction force and wind resistance that Taisun said, it doesn't prevent him from knowing that the skeleton of this glider must be able to bear at least three times the weight of the human body.

At this time, he remembered the tea stalk bamboo he had seen in the countryside of Suzhou. This kind of tea stalk bamboo, also known as iron bamboo, is native to the southern Guangdong generation, is extremely strong, and it is also very light.

It can be called iron bamboo, which is naturally very strong, and it is said that Suzhou is not adapted to the soil and water, these tea stalks and bamboos have also degraded, if they are in southern Guangdong, the tea stalks and bamboos that grow for more than three or five years can be directly used to build buildings.

Many restaurants in Suzhou have built two-story or even three-story houses with tea stalks and bamboo as their bones.

With tea stalks and bamboo, and with silk, this glider should be able to take off!

He also wished he could fly in the sky like a bird.

Zhu Zhanji stayed in the room until about three o'clock in the afternoon before preparing to return to the palace. Before returning to the palace, he came to the warehouse again as usual to check the progress of Ma Zhicai's work.

Today, Ma Zhicai was tasked with improving the adjustable range of the fixture as well as the tightness. Wood is easy to fix now, but if steel is to be processed in the future, the clamp must be able to clamp the iron rod firmly.

Zhu Zhanji didn't have much interest in these fine processing, and after watching it for a while, he felt bored, so he was ready to go back.

When he came out, Ma Di followed him, and it was not until Ma Zhi could not hear their voices that Ma Di said: "Your Highness, Xiao Min has heard that there is a kind of iron bamboo produced in Nanyue, which is extremely strong, although it is only three or four meters long, but it can build high-rise buildings. ”

"Tiezhu ......" Hearing this name, Zhu Zhanji's heart moved. Because as long as it is a species that has been crowned with iron in history, it must be extremely strong.

For example, ironwood can be used to make aircraft propellers. Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji was reminded of another memory in the depths of his memory.

When studying the history of ancient ships at the sailors' school, the role of ironwood in the history of ancient ships was mentioned. Ironwood can not only make propellers, but also ship propeller shaft bearings, bearings, sliders, various industrial machinery bearings, model materials, pulleys, shafts, handles, frame saw sliders, etc.

In ancient times, when there was a shortage of materials, whether it was ironwood or ironbamboo, it could play a more important role.

He patted Ma Di on the shoulder appreciatively and said, "Your proposal is very good, I will arrange for the Jinyi Guard to search for all kinds of iron bamboo and iron wood throughout the country, and at that time, I will give you a great credit." ”

Madi laughed a little embarrassedly and said, "As long as I can go to heaven at that time, I don't want to take credit." ”

asked Li Liang to call Yang Zhangde and asked him to go back to Jinyiwei and release this task.

To this end, Zhu Zhanji also specially allocated 2,000 taels of silver as the activity fund of Jinyiwei.

At the end of the year, the profits of the silver building will be shared again, since there is no shortage of money, you can't suffer the people who do things below.

On the way back to the palace, Zhu Zhanji kept thinking about the affairs at hand. The formation of the navy is the most important, followed by the formation of an industrial development group and the creation of a new type of industrial zone.

Next year, he will choose a concubine, get married, and strategize Shijian Yinshan, this time is really a bit insufficient!

But there is no way to do this, these things cannot be replaced by others. Without his appearance, the navy would have been formed, and I am afraid it would also be a large naval division.

Without his push, if you want to build a new type of industrial park, others simply don't know what to do.

And it is even more impossible for the big wedding to be replaced by others, and before the success of the strategy, it is impossible to let others outside of Ji Gang know.

Therefore, no matter how big the difficulty is, he must continue to push it step by step.
