"The minister must live up to His Majesty's trust!"

The military department Shangshu arched his hand and said sharply.

There was a glow in his eyes.

When a hundred firecrackers are equipped, they are a hundred firecrackers.

If you go through strict training, you will be able to kill the enemy at a distance of 100 steps!

And no one has ever seen this thing before.

Once you appear, you can kill your enemies by surprise!

What's more, in the future, with more and more firearms, the Shenji Camp will grow bigger and bigger!

He could already predict what an elite force the Shenji Battalion would be once it was formed!

It will sweep the world!

Full of ambition, the military department retreated.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, when the formation of the Shenji Battalion is completed, my Great Song Dynasty will add another army of tigers and wolves. ”

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu bowed to Zhao Lin to congratulate.

"The current Shenji Camp is still far from my expectations. ”

However, Zhao Lin shook his head and said lightly: "These firecrackers are just for the people of the Divine Machine Battalion to practice. ”

"After all, this is only the first generation of firecrackers, and its power is very limited. ”

"The first generation of firebolts?"

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu looked surprised.

Doesn't that mean that there is a second and third generation of this firebolt?

And it's going to get stronger and stronger?

"Not bad. ”

Zhao Lin nodded and handed a drawing to the Ministry of Works, "This is the drawing of the second-generation firecracker." ”

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu carefully took the drawings.

He opened it and looked at it, but he couldn't help but feel confused.

The things on this drawing are far from the appearance of the first generation of firecrackers, and the appearance has completely changed.

"This thing, to be exact, can no longer be called a musket, but a musket. ”

Zhao Lin explained: "The power of the musket is far better than that of the firecracker. ”

"You give this drawing to Song Zhong and let him study it. ”

The thing that Zhao Lin painted was the arquebus from his previous life.

This is a weapon that evolved from the Firebolt.

He had already marked some of the structural parts of the arquebus on the diagram and made notations.

It doesn't matter if you can't read it.

As long as Song Zhong can understand it.

"Obey. ”

The Ministry of Industry shoshu carefully put away the drawings.

Although he couldn't understand it, he completely believed in His Majesty.

As long as it is painted by His Majesty, it must be a weapon of the country!

You can't go wrong!

"Also, I have an idea, you go and prepare it. ”

Zhao Lin looked at the Ministry of Works.

"Your Majesty, please speak. ”

The Ministry of Industry is respectful.

"I am going to make a decree to set up an academy of sciences outside the six departments to oversee all the wonders and tricks in the world. ”

Zhao Lin said loudly.

According to the memories of Zhao Lin's previous life.

Science and technology are crucial to the development of any era.

Countries that do not put science and technology first will eventually fall into a situation of backwardness and beating.

If science and technology can be developed, it will definitely make a qualitative leap in the Great Song Dynasty!

In this era, if Zhao Lin does not guide him a little, it will be difficult for science and technology to break through the existing knowledge framework.

For example, the earth is round.

Thunder and earthquakes are natural phenomena.

These can be explained by science.

And not the theory of gods and ghosts.

"Academy of Sciences?"

Gongbu Shangshu looked surprised.

It's a brand new name.

Dominate the world!

Your Majesty wants to bring all the tricks and tricks in the world into the control of the imperial court!

Supported by the imperial court, vigorously support the development of this so-called miraculous skill!

"Not bad,"

Zhao Lin nodded, "You prepare for this matter first, select talents for me, and when the time is ripe in the future, I will announce this matter in the court." ”

"Obey. ”

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu arched his hand, and then retreated.

......

After returning to the gunpowder workshop, the Ministry of Industry immediately handed over the drawings to Song Zhong.

His eyes looked at Song Zhong very worriedly, "How is it, do you understand Your Majesty's drawings?"

However, Song Zhong did not reply to him immediately.

The other party frowned.

His eyes remained motionless, staring carefully at the drawings in his hands.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu was afraid of interrupting his train of thought, and he didn't dare to disturb him.

I can only stand silently on the sidelines.

It's been a long time.

Song Zhong's eyes suddenly lit up, and a palm slammed on the thigh of the Ministry of Works, "Gao Ming, really Gao Ming!"

"Your Majesty is really a genius through the ages!"

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu grinned in pain, but he couldn't care about it so much at the moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Song Zhong in front of him with a little surprise, and said, "Is there a mystery?"

"The weapons drawn by His Majesty are too mysterious and profound, and Song has only understood a little bit about it after watching it for so long. ”

Song Zhong's face was full of emotion.

He didn't understand it, though.

But I understood a general direction.

He had a vague premonition that if it was improved in the direction designed by His Majesty, the power of this firearm would indeed be able to make a qualitative leap!

When he was developing the firecracker, he should have thought of it!

How could he not have thought of such a good idea?

Perhaps, this is the gap between him and His Majesty!

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that Song Zhong at least already has eyebrows, at least not completely incomprehensible, indicating that there is hope.

"Your Majesty said that this thing is called a musket, and it is far more powerful than a firecracker. ”

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu explained to Song Zhong: "Your Majesty has not set a clear deadline this time, you should do it as soon as possible." ”

"There are many details that I don't know about this musket, and I'm afraid I will need to ask Your Majesty for clarification later. ”

Song Zhong nodded solemnly.

"That's natural, your questions can be summed up, and then the official will present them to your majesty. ”

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu said.

"Then there is Master Lao Shangshu. ”

Song Zhong arched his hand, but a look of hope appeared in his eyes, "If you have the opportunity, I really want to see Your Majesty's dragon face......"

"Rest assured, there will be a chance. ”

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu patted Zhao Lin on the shoulder, "As long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to be reused by Your Majesty." ”

"Your Majesty is preparing to establish an academy of sciences in the near future, and if nothing else, with your talents, you will definitely be able to occupy a place in the academy. ”

"Academy of Sciences?"

Song Zhong was stunned.

"The Academy of Sciences is the institution that oversees the world's strange skills and tricks, and in the future, it will be on the same level as the six ministries, and it will play a pivotal role in the court, and it will be directly under the command of His Majesty. ”

"It's just that this matter is still under secrecy, so don't make a noise about it yet. ”

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu looked at Song Zhong with a smile, "When you enter the Academy of Sciences, are you still worried that you won't have a chance to see Your Majesty?"

Hearing this, Song Zhong's eyes suddenly lit up.

And six at the same level!

It can be seen from this that His Majesty attaches great importance to the Academy of Sciences and to the so-called "strange skills"!

Song Zhong's mood quickly became eager.

Strange skills and ingenuity, have never been valued by the world.

He was specially recruited into the Ministry of Engineering to study gunpowder technology, and was also awarded the six-rank top wear.

In Song Zhong's opinion, it is already a great grace.

Unexpectedly, now there is a greater future in front of him!

With this "miraculous skill", he can still get ahead and become a dignitary!

It seems that he must do his best to study gunpowder in order to have a broader world and live up to His Majesty's trust!
