The edict to change the country name was put on the desk so casually, and before Zhang Zhensun could get up and be polite, the eunuch in charge of the edict had already turned around and left. A few guards of the forbidden army were waiting outside, and they could only tell from their clothes that their past was now covered with dust and tiredness on their faces, and it was rumored that the next stop for the eunuch was Meizhou, which was destined to be a long journey full of dangers.

Regarding the death of the young emperor and the accession of another young emperor to the throne, it symbolizes that the throne of the Great Song Dynasty has continued downward, and the country name can be changed to Xiangxing? Ninety percent of the country's territory has fallen to the enemy, and with the strength of the three states and two prefectures now, how long can it hold out?

"My lord, the Prime Minister's fleet passed through Guangzhou and went directly to Leizhou without stopping? It's not very far from Guangzhou, why ......" Wang Daofu couldn't help it, and asked the words in his heart, which was also the doubt in the hearts of more than a dozen officials in the court.

Although Guangzhou's port economic status has been taken away by Quanzhou, it has been promoted to Xianglong Mansion, which is the most important imperial court institution to govern the two Guangzhou's thousands of miles of sea territory, and why Zhang Shijie refused to stay for a while, this is an inexplicable reason.

In fact, Zhang Shijie was lost and dazed by a typhoon at sea, and he originally wanted to divide his troops into two routes, leaving some officers and soldiers to live in Xianglong Mansion, that is, Guangzhou City to resist the Yuan soldiers on the spot. He personally led the navy to Leizhou or Qiongzhou to check, where is suitable for the capital, is Guangzhou not suitable? It's not inappropriate, the reason is hidden in his heart and he doesn't say it, but he knows very well that Guangzhou is too close to the Yuan soldiers.

But in the troubled times, there are rumors everywhere, and it is not unheard that Zhang Shijie wants to take the little emperor to Nanyang, and Chen Yizhong advocates going to Vietnam to recuperate, and these officials in Guangzhou must have a feeling of being abandoned.

And this time Duanzong's death, the edict was only a matter of transmission, and there was no arrangement for the local government at all, and these officials, who were accustomed to being set by the king, were like losing the backbone of the past, and their hearts must be empty.

Zhang Zhensun is a great talent who reads poetry and books, otherwise he would not become the only Lingnan palace test champion, and he has long been prepared for the imminent change of dynasty, but the enthusiasm and loyalty in his body make him never stop resisting the invasion of foreign races, unless it comes to the moment when he closes his eyes and stops breathing.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please be calm, the young emperor died and the new emperor ascended the throne, there must be a lot of important things to deal with, and it is inevitable that there will be some omissions. But rest assured, my lords, our city of Guangzhou is solid, and the Yuan soldiers have been besieged for a long time and do not dare to start a war, because they are afraid of the strong combat power of our Guangzhou, and maybe they will retreat in the near future, and the siege of Guangzhou City will be relieved. At that time, I wrote to the imperial court and took my Guangzhou city officials to mourn in front of the tomb of the young emperor, so as to fulfill the righteousness of my monarch and ministers. ”

More than a dozen civil and military officials in Guangzhou, after listening to the contents of the edict read out in front of the hall, looked at each other at each other, but Zhang Zhensun's comfort eased a little. In the end, it was the official in charge of local literature, history and logs that played a round and asked Zhang Zhensun to order that the city should be covered with white gauze for three days from tomorrow to express his condolences for the death of the young emperor.

The morale in Guangzhou City was like a rainbow, and he was used to the Yuan soldiers stationed outside the city, and even began to ignore them a little, thinking that they were nothing remarkable, and there was no way to sleep outside the city.

However, the death of the young emperor on the ship and the change of the name of the country will inevitably spread, which is a very bad omen for the customs of the people in ancient times, indicating that this year is a great disaster year.

Thinking of the Yuan soldiers in the outer city for a long time, it is natural that there will be many people who have made up in private, and the Yuan soldiers may be about to go to war in the near future, saying that Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan dynasty, ordered that the city of Guangzhou must be completely captured before the Lunar New Year.

After three or five days, the people in the city were panicked, as if they were going to be broken by the Yuan soldiers tomorrow, and they had to pack up and flee as soon as possible. On the south gate waterway and east gate land route, every day there are people who leave the city with their families and mouths, and some people who are not strong even flee to the garrison of the Yuan soldiers, and voluntarily go to the door to work as hard labor in order to survive.

For Li Heng, this was an unexpected joy, the deterrence tactics that had been used all the time finally worked, but he didn't expect that it was the little emperor of the Great Song Dynasty who broke the last straw. Seeing that the Lunar New Year of the Han people is approaching, I really have to think about it, whether to attack the city immediately and start a war, and stir the hearts of the people in Guangzhou into a pot of porridge while the iron is hot, if it goes well, you can really spend the New Year in the city.

Yuan Bing's movements were immediately fed back to Zhang Zhensun and Zhao Tianyou, and the officials did not refute the rumors of the panicked people, nor did they stop the slightest move, which was originally the result of the discussion between the two people. This accident disturbed the people's hearts, and there was also a deletion of personnel, and everyone chose to leave or stay out of their own hearts. Of course, there are consequences to this, and there is nothing wrong or shameful about running away, but your choices will miss something, and those who are left behind to fight against the Yuan may have unexpected surprises.

The metal industry on Hong Kong Island has grown by leaps and bounds, requiring the expansion of land and factories, as well as a large number of apprentices or skilled workers. A large number of metal structural parts such as pulley axles have been separated from the blacksmith workshop another branch, and the future mechanical processing industry has a prototype, which needs standardized blue-collar workers to promote production and application.

Zhao Tianyou is very simple, is an industry full of infinite vision and the future, take a simple axle as an example, the design of ball bearings can improve the efficiency of countless times. Drawings, design concepts, technical features and requirements are all ready-made, but it takes hundreds of craftsmen to put their ideas into reality as much as possible.

After the first batch of rough roller bearings on the axle, the smooth transmission of the power of flowing water, the galloping carriage made people scream loudly.

The increase in speed will inevitably bring new changes, and it is necessary to solve the firmness and life of the wheel, which is naturally inseparable from elastic materials such as rubber tires. However, rubber trees are still growing naturally in the Amazon and other American continents, and Zhao Tianyou is anxious and has no temper, so he can only want the craftsmen to use their brains and think of other ways to replace them.

These are all small episodes in the industrialization process of Hong Kong Island, metal smelting is the basis of materials, and only continuous progress in technology can meet these cross-generational technological innovations.

And Zhao Tianyou threw out more and more things, so much so that the existing craftsmen are constantly splitting into new groups, to contact and study new fields, and at the same time constantly absorb new apprentices and new workers.
