Chapter 1268 Expedition!
Because I replaced Fang Bin to Yili, I almost forgot to eat and sleep during this period of dusk. Well, after the resource reorganization, the Times Firearms R&D Institute was also reorganized and established Times Military Industry, which was responsible for all military research and development, production and sales matters.
Of course, R&D is still the main focus now.
Sales this...
The steel consumption provided by the state limits the production volume of the military industry in the era, so if you want to sell it, you can only sell technology and patents - it depends on whether the boss can negotiate a good price with the emperor's side.
Anyway, the previous research and development was given free of charge in the country, so you will have to talk about the money in the future.
The military industry took root in the era of dusk, but in fact, it was just to get an armored vehicle out.
And it is almost successful - it has been going on since the beginning of spring, and now it is midsummer. As long as you have funds and ideas, with current industrial technology, this is really not difficult.
However, his idea was quite grand. This was not an ordinary armored vehicle, but an armored vehicle with dozens of musketeers and one or two cannons on it.
In other words, even if the entire army is wiped out, you can drive this armored vehicle to break through the battlefield in the evening. The enemy still has no choice but to watch him leave.
So this armored vehicle is as luxurious as it is. It can not only drive on the official road, but also perfectly adapt to various other terrains except the swamp.
To surpass the so-called Air Force One.
The investment was so great that even Shen Xili was stunned after hearing this - the money spent in at dusk would cost at least hundreds of thousands of taels. If you included cannons and musket soldiers, it would be basically an army.
I don't feel sorry for this dusk at all.
As for money, just make money.
But there is only one life.
When the military industry was buried in the times at dusk, the Nuergandu Department, the Governor's Office of the Five Army and the Ministry of War issued a transfer order to transfer Zhang Fu and Xu Huizu to the Governor's Office of the Five Army. Later, the troops of the three Governor's Office of Changping, Yanping and Heshunping were gathered together, plus the border troops of Shanhaiguan and the troops of Yi Shiha in Nuer's Office, totaling 100,000 people. They found an excuse to send troops.
Confront the Jurchens!
After this spread, there was an uproar in China, let alone abroad.
Good guy, our Emperor Yongle is so awesome.
In the past, fighting north and south, and winning, it should be a masterpiece of eternal eternity. Now, the west is still fighting Yilibali, and more than 100,000 troops are trapped in it and have not made any progress. Under such circumstances, Your Majesty did not want to prepare troops to support the Ming Dynasty army that was supporting Yilibali, but instead dispatched troops to conquer the Jurchens.
Desperate enough!
You have to know that if something goes wrong with Yili and the Ming Dynasty really doesn’t have much troops to support or support, then the consequence is that many places such as the Seven Guards of Guanxi may be lost. Even the Oirat area will be lost again.
Because under such circumstances, the Ming Dynasty's troops stationed in the Indochina Peninsula were too late to mobilize.
But someone did it and couldn't believe it.
The Ming Dynasty has currently maintained nearly 500,000 normal troops - not the kind of military farming, but the army directly on the battlefield: to conquer the Jurchens 100,000, and to conquer more than 100,000, and to conquer the village, there are still about 200,000 in the Indochina Peninsula.
The key is that these troops were kept in custody of the Jurchens and did not have military farms. What national strength does this require?
A country has a standing army of 500,000...
If we add some reserve forces in Yunnan, coastal areas, the Ming Dynasty's national army can reach a huge amount of millions. If we want to recruit troops, with the current population of the Ming Dynasty, we can actually raise about two million troops...
It's terrifying to think about it.
No matter how terrifying it is, the people of the Ming Dynasty discovered that our country was so powerful and had no impact on the lives of our people, and they were very excited. After dinner, the restaurants and restaurants were discussing whether we could go to Yilibali and Jurchens for an outing in the spring next year...
And under such circumstances, an imperial edict appeared quietly on Yingtian.
At dusk, he was promoted to the head of the Ministry of War. He was the commander of the Right Army of the Governor of the Five Army and the commander of the commander of the Shaanxi Metropolitan Commander. He chose the day to serve as Shaanxi, and he would not make any mistakes.
There are three official positions at once.
Those who don’t know the truth think they are so big, but in fact, all three official positions are average.
The real power is the head of the Ministry of War.
This can ensure that dusk can speak in the Ministry of War, so that you can have the right to speak in logistical support, and mobilize local resources for military supplies.
Another real power is the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi Dushi Tongzhi.
This seems to be Jin Rong's deputy.
However, because there were official positions given by the Ministry of War and the commander of the Right Army of the Five Army Governor's Office, they were basically on par with Jin Rong. When they arrived at Yili, no one could gossip as the head coach.
In fact, Zhu Di could have given Dusk a minister of the Ministry of War and then served as the head coach.
However, there is no vacant at the Minister of War.
The three official positions obtained at dusk were all vacant, so Zhu Di also saved the trouble. It was not a big deal to transfer such an important position as the Minister of War.
Since the imperial edict has arrived, then go to war.
The afternoon before the war, I ran to Shangqing Temple at dusk and told Fairy Wei that I was going to the battlefield again, but Yilibali was not Mobei. If I go there and never return this time, I will die with my eyes open. Do you think before this, let me appreciate your flower?
This is the replica routine of "I have never seen women as a mercenary in Afghanistan".
Fairy Wei was not fooled.
He replied with the word "get out".
He returned home in a defeat at dusk.
But I feel happy that men have this kind of "fairy" nature, and what I can't get is always the best. In the first half of the fifteenth year of Yongle, dusk fully cultivated this mentality.
He now thinks that Fairy Wei is the most beautiful scenery.
Must conquer.
This time, I went to Yili, and took several technical workers from the military industry in the Times. The chief designer of his completed armored vehicle and the construction manager also volunteered to go.
We have to conduct on-site investigation of the advantages and disadvantages of this armored vehicle.
If it is useful, then mass production will be sold to the country - it is also the first business of the times Military Industry.
The same thing happened to Dusk.
Before the internal combustion engine was created, a bankrupt version of the giant steampunk armed train and armored vehicle could also gallop for an era. Anyway, the Ming Dynasty had money and resources after the expansion, so don’t care about these wasted steel.
And it can also be recycled.
So in the middle of July of the fifteenth year of Yongle, it happened to be the Ghost Festival, and I was about to go to war at dusk.
And Zhu Di is also very good.
Chapter completed!
