After the core issue was decided, the parents breathed a sigh of relief, and for some reason they all jumped up, and the staff conference room began to become lively. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"The next few days are likely to rewrite our perception of war. We don't know how many Steam tanks Fran the Great mass-produced, and this variable could be game-changing. In the midst of an optimistic military meeting, Frederick did not forget to remind everyone to be vigilant.

"Steam tank?" the head of the section was sensitive, "impossible. The efficiency of the steam engine in this era was only 8%, which could not replace the internal combustion engine. ”

Frederick was solemn and relayed the information revealed by Xiao Qian. Fran the Great came from the future. He brought with him a myriad of advanced knowledge. He was determined to dominate the battlefield with his whimsy.

The head of the Wen section got serious. He stretched out his hand to ask for the latest information: "Can you confirm the number of tanks in the French camp? If the French army has a large number of tanks in service, the Prussian army will collapse faster than we think." ”

The staff officer said: "There is no specific information. ”

The head of the department said: "Then estimate." According to the other party's national strength, industrialization progress, coal trading volume, industrial capacity, estimate the number of steam tanks off the assembly line. I need all the information of the first ten years of Paris, the literacy rate, the economic structure, whatever the details. ”

"Can you estimate the size of the opposing tank force?" even Frederick was shocked.

"I can only estimate an order of magnitude. But I'm sure that Fran the Great persevered hard, hard. The head of the Wen section was like a great enemy, and he stretched out his hand to ask for information: "He will even be very painful." ”

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"I always feel that the design of the track is too complicated, and the factory yield rate is lower than that of wheeled vehicles. Senna, the scholar, stood in front of a scrapped track, stooping down to hand the emperor a wrench under the chassis.

The loop of tracks hanging on five pairs of weight-bearing wheels was taller than the old man with a hunched waist. The approaching child has to look up to see the whole picture of the tank.

It's just that this steam tank is still covered with a tarp. The mystery has never been revealed.

After a while, Fran the Great reached out from under the chassis, took the wrench, jingled for a while, and then crawled out of the chassis covered in oil, threw away the wrench in annoyance, and said to the workshop director who was trembling: "The worker installed the suspension system wrong, so the drive shaft was broken in one step." The isolation of the boiler is also a serious problem, and it can spontaneously combust on the battlefield. This batch of products are defective, dismantled and remade. The person in charge was removed from his post and sent to a military court. ”

The workshop director knelt on the ground, tears flew in the air, opened his round eyes, and howled: "Many workers are illiterate, and they are not as good as the skilled workers of Paris Heavy Industries...... I have a weak heart...... It's powerless!"

Emperor Fran stiffened his face, only bowed his head to wipe the oil stains on his hands, his face was gloomy and extremely ugly. The attendant next to him was frightened, holding the emperor's golden robe, but he didn't dare to put it on the emperor's shoulder, and stood awkwardly.

With a heavy heart, Senna told the workshop director: "How expensive is the cost of a steam chariot, it is reduced to a defective product when it leaves the factory, and it must be disassembled and reassembled, do you know how painful the emperor is? Do you know how difficult the funds are? What is such an expensive decisive battle weapon, because of the problem of the compartment, spontaneously combusted on the battlefield and burned to death a squad of tank soldiers? Spending money to commit mass suicide? Why should the country suffer such losses? Are you worthy of your high salary? The emperor was so angry that he got under the car and personally inspected the damage, and you, as the person in charge, should not be shot? Don't make excuses for yourself, admit your mistakes. ”

The workshop director wept bitterly and grabbed the ground with his head: "Your Majesty, I was wrong, I am not capable enough, I don't even understand some technical difficulties, I am not effective in supervision, I am willing to study hard! Give me a chance to reform myself!"

He cried as he went to hug the emperor's leg. The emperor's snow-white leggings were rubbed by the engine oil, and he was annoyed, so he kicked away the workshop director, bent over to wipe his pants with a tense face, and continued to say nothing.

The emperor personally sampled the yield rate of the workshop, and there was such a big accident, which alarmed the workers of the fourth heavy industry. Some of the workers who had eaten lunch were already cowering outside the workshop door, sticking their heads out to spy on the progress.

Senna was a scholar, soft-hearted, and when he was afraid that the emperor would sulk, he really shot the grassroots director, and hurriedly stomped his feet and insulted him, and secretly pointed out the maze: "You bastard! Are you incompetent? The emperor inspected your office and actually put up thousands of posters; when you passed by the windowsill of the workshop, all you said after tea and dinner was the history of a beautiful beggar. The emperor is sympathetic to you, and he sets you such a high salary to let you learn from beggars? You go and tear up all the posters, paste them on the assembly process of the unit, and practice makes perfect in a week. ”

The weeping man shouted "Good, good!" as if he had been pardoned, and ran away with his hands on the ground.

Senna hurriedly comforted the emperor: "Don't be angry, just return the defective products to the factory." ”

Only then did the emperor squeak: "Fortunately, I came to conduct a random inspection." If these tanks were to go to the front line and fight under the high temperature and vibration, within a few minutes, they would all spontaneously combust, and all seven tank crews might be buried together. It's not easy to train a tanker, and I really want to kill all these dereliction of duty. ”

"You are angry. The literacy rate of workers is generally not high, and it is not easy to train a workshop director. Senna empathized with the Emperor's anxiety. He couldn't help but share his worries.

"It's not enough to tear up the poster. I wanted to pile it up and have a meeting, and I burned it in front of them. Emperor Fran commanded sullenly, as if he was holding back his anger, but he did not dare to attack: ""Beautiful beggar", what a good name, I passed by the windowsill, and heard that the people inside wanted to be beggars, how lucky the beggars are, as soon as they lie down on the street, they can go straight up and hug the left and right, as if everything is ready, just wait for the mayor's wife to come and fall." Well, when I burned the posters, I told them that I respect everyone's right to be a beggar. I took off my overalls, got paid, and got out of my heavy factory right away. Lao Tzu has done his best to serve you in vain. ”

"That's just a popular topic in Paris. Don't be angry. Senna picked up the wrench and put it back in the toolbox. He had a feeling that the emperor around him was more craftsman than others.

"Senna, have you ever heard a word? Emperor Fran sighed heavily, sat down on a stack of scrapped tracks, bowed his head and lit a cigarette: "No one asks in front of the general's grave, and the world knows about the drama's family affairs." ”

"Haven't heard of it. "Senna was a little nervous.

"It tells the story of an empire that has never been more ferocious than ever turned into a castle in the sky. Emperor Fran pinched his cigarette and looked empty: "I think I'm going to follow in the footsteps of the Qing Dynasty." ”

"How could it be!" Senna did not understand the meaning of the Qing Dynasty, but he heard the emperor's sadness and sadness.

"The heavy factories I support with high salaries don't care about the war on the front line, do you think the drunken Parisians will care about the fortunes of the country?" Heavy drama and light industry, misleading the country does not know its shame. I am pessimistic about the future of Paris. ”

Senna shook his body, and suddenly remembered the night in the Imperial Library, and saw the white-haired emperor muttering through gritted teeth: "Heavy drama and light industry, drama misleads the country!"

He suddenly understood why the emperor was so concerned about his food, clothing, shelter and transportation.

No one asked in front of the general's grave.

He, the master of applied mechanics, the father of the suspension system, he, who was over fifty years old but dressed in shabby clothes, was the "general" who made the emperor feel painful. And he will go to the grave, and there will be no successor from it.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"Senna, I heard that your son's dream is to be a scientist? ”

"Your Majesty, Christie has grown up and given up that childish ideal. Applying mechanics does not make money. ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Senna remembered the conversation in the cold wind again. He remembered that after listening to the answer, the emperor stood in the wind for a long time, and the white silk of his sideburns flew in his ears, as if life was unsatisfactory and weighed on his heart.

Only today can Senna understand the despair of the emperor half a year ago. The sickness of the country is like the sadness of a fat man, there is no more than the excessive accumulation of fat cells, and the depletion of hematopoietic cells. And the country's obesity is not only sad, but also difficult to return.

Paris is already too fat to move.

The old scholar sat down silently beside the emperor, hunched over his cheekbones, and began to cry silently.
