Chapter 316: Chinese Academy of Sciences
Sun Yuanhua couldn't help but be a little worried when he looked at the powerful artillery of the security army, this Zhang Chu said that he was going to Shandong to quell the rebellion, if he changed his mind halfway and killed Beijing directly, the soldiers and horses of the Beijing division might not be able to stop it.

"Isn't it good that Zhang Dashuai has such a sharp weapon, but why does he want to quell the rebellion for the imperial court, instead of establishing himself as the king, and gather some displaced people to divide one side." Sun Yuanhua thought that he should be regarded as a person who had died once, if the emperor knew that he was not dead, he would definitely want to break his body into ten thousand pieces, and if he was involved in any conspiracy again, he would not be able to tell clearly. He must know Zhang Chu's true thoughts, so he deliberately made tentative words.
"I don't want to go to war with the emperor, now I and the emperor are facing the same enemy, the Houjin outside the Guanwai has the heart of the Central Plains under the encouragement of some surrendered Han Chinese, and the poor performance of the Emperor Chongzhen and the ministers when the Houjin entered the Kou strengthened the determination of the Emperor Taiji to come to the Guannei as the emperor, and it will not be long before the Houjin will enter the Kou again, and finally replace the Ming Dynasty to establish a new dynasty. All I have to do now is stop Huang Taiji. "Zhang Chu mainly wanted to survive in the Ming rebellion, and what he wanted to do most after he survived was to prevent the Manchu regime from ruling China and prevent China from falling into a country of darkness for a hundred years."
"You know that Houjin will replace Daming, why don't you take refuge in Houjin, and eventually you can get a marquis to worship the prime minister." Sun Yuanhua didn't believe Zhang Chu's judgment, did Da Ming die so easily? You know he's going to die and he's still on their side.
"The change of dynasty is not the same for us poor as you scholars. After the dynasty has changed, you can go to the new dynasty to seek officials, but for us ordinary people, it is a chaotic army, crossing the border, corpses are everywhere, and families are ruined. Zhang Chu paused and continued: "You scholars have miscalculated the situation this time, and after the Golden Emperor Taiji destroys the Ming Dynasty, he will turn you all into his minions." “
"Minions, what kind of minions. Turn us all into eunuchs. "The ministers of the Ming Dynasty still have a strong sense of autonomy, and they say that they are loyal to the emperor or something, but once the emperor doesn't listen to him, they will roll around in all kinds of sprinkling, huddle in a group all day long, and think about restricting the emperor's rights, and have no concept of being a slave to the emperor.
"It's not necessary to become a eunuch, but it's better than a eunuch, Mr. Sun should know some of the systems implemented by Houjin, all the people and even officials are the private property of the nobles, and pulling you over to beat you is considered to promote you, thinking that you can also let the emperor beat it as capital to show off everywhere. Let's say something that is most direct and unacceptable. Speaking of this, Zhang Chu looked at Sun Yuanhua's head with bad intentions. Sun Yuanhua subconsciously dodged to the side. I only heard Zhang Chu continue: "You know the hair style of the Houjin people, Huang Taiji will force all men in the country to keep such a hairstyle in the future, if you don't obey, you will be killed, the so-called 'keep your head without hair, keep your hair without your head.'" ’”
"Keep your head without hair, keep your hair without your head." Sun Yuanhua muttered in his mouth, he really didn't think that this kind of thing would happen before, the parents who have hair and skin on the body cannot be easily damaged, this is a concept passed down from generation to generation, and it will not be easily changed if it penetrates into the bone marrow. More importantly, many ministers, including Sun Yuanhua, have a very superficial understanding of Houjin, and they are still at the stage of robbing after a few years and then leaving with people and property, believing that the disasters of those who have been plundered will not fall on their heads, let alone change their lives.
"The rule of Houjin is a huge regression in society, and all Chinese will become slaves of a small number of nobles, not only losing themselves, but even not deciding life and death." The suffering caused by the reign of Emperor Taiji in the Later Jin Dynasty can also be experienced by Zhang Chu, who came from later generations, and it is difficult to explain a few simple words.
"We must defeat Huang Taiji, eliminate Houjin, and not let the Ming Dynasty fall to the country." Zhang Chu said briefly, but the shock of Sun Yuanhua was very great, the founding of the Ming Dynasty expelled the rule of the Mongolian barbarians, and only then was liberated from the oppression of being divided into inferior people, but I did not expect that the Han people would be oppressed by the barbarians again after a few hundred years, which was unacceptable in any case.
"If we don't want to be slaves, we have to rely on our own efforts, and the emperor and the ministers of the court are unreliable. Moreover, the Houjin people have lived on horseback since childhood, and they are skilled in archery and archery, and we Han people are not their opponents, and only by giving full play to the role of firearms can we hope to defeat them. Mr. Sun must feel the same way. Zhang Chu turned to Sun Yuanhua and asked.
"Yes, I have fought against the Houjin people, and we can only rely on the city to kill them with firearms to achieve some victories, and we can't compete with them in the field." Sun Yuanhua, who has actual combat experience, agrees with this.
"In this way, we will only be beaten passively, Houjin will continue to rob us, continue to grow, and then add some surrendered Han people to bring over the cannon casting technology, and one day it will be so strong that our city can not hold it. At that time, the world of the Han people was really going to die. Therefore, we must improve the performance of firearms and strive to defeat the Houjin cavalry in field battles. ”
"Defeat the Houjin cavalry in a field battle with firearms?" Sun Yuanhua knew the difficulty of this matter, there were many firearms, but in addition to artillery, other firearms also played a role in listening to the sound in front of the battle.
"We've made some progress in this area, so let's show Mr. Sun." Zhang Chu said to a group of musketeers waiting next to him.
The musketeers had been ordered to perform a live fire show beforehand, so they had already been prepared, and the captain quickly assembled and marched to the target with the command, and with the sound of the command, performed a three-stage shooting with the musket.
The continuous sound of gunfire made Sun Yuanhua speechless in astonishment, the musket could be used to this extent Sun Yuanhua did not expect it before, especially the musket of the security army did not need to be lit, and it could be fired without dragging a long fire rope, which made Sun Yuanhua feel more novel, he hurriedly asked the soldier for a musket and observed carefully. Next to him, Zhang Chu carefully explained the structure and principle of the musket to Sun Yuanhua. Finally, he said: "There is still room for improvement in the performance of this musket, and I decided to set up an academy of sciences to recruit some knowledgeable and willing to study while studying, and research more advanced weapons for testing, and then promote them to the team. This dean who takes a leadership role can only do it with you. ”
"Can I do it?" Originally, Sun Yuanhua was still very confident in his knowledge, but after seeing the muskets and artillery here, he felt that he didn't understand many things.
"No problem, this academy is a place where everyone can learn and research together, everyone can make progress together, and a lot of new knowledge will be promoted from here. There is absolutely no problem in understanding this new knowledge with your wisdom. The Academy of Sciences was built in Zhongyang, and I have chosen the site of the Academy, and now it is called the Zhongyang Academy of Sciences, referred to as 'Chinese Academy of Sciences'. Zhang Chu endured it for a long time, and finally gave the Academy of Sciences the name "Chinese Academy of Sciences". Because I think that the academician was an existence that Zhang Chu admired infinitely. Thinking about the academician under his leadership, Zhang Chu couldn't help but smile in his heart.
"Then I am fighting hard to develop more and better weapons for the soldiers, and I must defeat the Tartars." Sun Yuanhua's blood boiled again.
"I don't want Mr. to work hard, Mr. must save his body, and the future will be long, I also found you a capable assistant, and you have to find a way to persuade him to work in the Chinese Academy of Sciences. "Zhang Chu doesn't want to lose the talent he has been hard to get.
"Who is it, do I know this person?" Sun Yuanhua was anxious to know who he would be working with.
"John Tang, I think they're about to arrive in Zhongyang." Zhang Chu believes that Sun Yuanhua will definitely like this assistant. (To be continued.) )
