Giant God

How to evaluate the various systematic scientific and technological research currently underway in the Han Empire?

This is a very interesting topic. Liu Xie felt that no matter what path the Han Empire took in the reform of science and technology, whether it was a detour or diameter, these were not important. What was important was a spirit of exploration.

The "Shenlong" system project is a system manufacturing research project for the new ship. The technicians and scholars of the Han Empire tried to make steam-powered ships, but the weight of the royal water heater was too bulky. People invented bolts and tried to fix the royal water heater on the main battleship of Jiangdong. However, they soon discovered that a new ship must be designed for the royal water heater again, and even hoped to be made with iron plates. So the "Shenlong" project was born, but in this process, they did take too many detours.

"Houyi" is a subordinate research project of the Firearms Research Institute. The Han Empire's firearm system took two paths. One was to choose to design a more powerful firearm on the Xuan Lei car. The other idea was to design an iron cannon. The two began to study at the same time, and finally achieved a comprehensive victory with the range of the iron cannon exceeding one mile. However, the Empire hoped to create the most powerful firearm. So people hoped to merge the two together, which gave birth to the "Houyi" system firearm project. In the "Houyi" system, the Empire Firearms Research Institute proposed the method of blasting and shooting the ground before, and added a pusher based on the explosive package.

The design idea of ​​"Houyi" is close to that of missiles, and it can even be said to be the ancestor of missiles. Under this idea, the "Houyi" designed has a range of three miles away. However, since there is no suitable combustion line, most explosive packs explode in the sky. At present, the problem of leads has begun to be solved. We hope to delay the combustion speed of the leads so that the explosive pack will explode after it reaches the target object.

Without detonator and striker, there is no way to achieve simultaneous explosion by relying on leads.

The Firearms Research Institute is also vigorously conducting research on musket systems. Although the power and range have been greatly improved, there is still a little gap compared to the current powerful crossbow technology of the Han Empire, mainly because it is difficult to load.

Compared with "Houyi" and muskets, artillery systems are much faster. Solid shells are mainly used on land to siege cities, but they are of great use at sea. The Second Fleet has completely replaced the "Yellow Sea" linear smoothbore gun and has begun to assemble the "East Sea" spiral-shaped bore gun. Although it is still solid shells, it has begun to be changed to a cone to increase the shooting accuracy. At present, some arms dealers are also studying artillery shells that can be exploded. They are considering using copper to make them more explosive debris.

In the Navy's major reform plan, Liu Wei personally watched the power and accuracy of the "East Sea" gun, ordered that within five years, a new artillery system must be completed, with the "East Sea" gun as the main body, a brand new main warship must be designed, and the main fleet equipment must be completed within ten years. The existing Jiangdong main warship and Jingzhou main warship are ready to be transformed into merchant ships one after another. Jingzhou Wuwei also quickly adapted to this change and, before the two major ship manufacturers of Jiangdong and the Yellow River, proposed the Dongfeng-class main warship, which is a mainstream three-sailing ship with fast speed and flexible steering. It can be equipped with twenty "East Sea" guns. In order to reduce the shock of the hull, Jingzhou Wuwei also improved the "East Sea" guns. The oil pressure anti-rear buffer device was added, and the hit rate of the shells was further improved. On this basis, the Central Military Office and Jingzhou Wuwei signed a 30-year long-term supply contract of 420 ships.

Jiangdong Ship and the Yellow River Arms are not willing to be willing to do this. Jiangdong Ship focuses their energy on ships, hoping to win the final victory through ships. On the one hand, the Yellow River Arms join forces with Jiangdong Ship to participate in the "Shennong" plan, and on the other hand, they quietly start acquiring small arms dealers engaged in the research of explosive shells, focusing their energy on the research of new artillery and small iron armored charge ships.

With the increase in rubber production, the imperial carriages began to widely use rubber tires, but people's pursuit of commercial profits was endless. The empire still needed a more powerful "train", so the "Kafu" system was born. However, like a steamer, due to the many restrictions, it was basically in the exploration stage and was still far from actual application.

The "Giant Spirit God" system is a completely nightmare. The system that the Central Military Office of the Han Empire invested 300 million silver dollars for research was destined to be a waste. I don't know who proposed to build a mobile steel castle powered by a royal water heater. It can have ten "East Sea" cannons, can travel a hundred miles a day, and become the main force in land warfare. It is the Army

In Liu Xie's eyes, "Gianling God" is a complete detour, but more than 70% of scholars and technicians in the Han Empire are eagerly looking forward to the birth of this mobile steel castle. Although it is a secret of special stunts, since the whole country is paying attention to this matter, many newspapers discuss this matter in a long and long manner, which has aroused the enthusiasm of the people across the country, and regarded "Gianling God" as the highest product of the technological achievements of the Han Empire.

It was like a farce. When the Central Military Office was in a short position, even the Central National Academy passed an investment order, with the state's fiscal expenditure of 2 billion silver dollars, and distributed it to the Northern Dynamics Research Institute, which was responsible for the "Gianling God" system for ten years. Liu Wei also twitched 400 million silver dollars from the royal treasury, specifically for the additional research on this system project.

As of the summer of the 45th year of China, in just three years, the Han Empire had invested more than 4,000 scholars and 30,000 technicians for this lively national drama, with a total investment of more than 1.2 billion silver dollars.

Liu Xie was full of fire and thought to himself that Liu Wei, you have too much money and nowhere to burn it. What are you doing with such things? But now these things are no longer under Liu Xie's control. He can only watch. Although he can stop this matter, what's the point? Maybe it will make the prestige of the entire national government plummet.

In Liu Wei's warm letter, he described the "Giant Spirit God" as an invincible land king. As long as he can successfully study it, the "Giant Spirit God" can set up ten cannons and assemble thirty soldiers using Jingzhou muskets. The enemy's cavalry and infantry have no way to get closer. They run faster than the cavalry. A "Giant Spirit God" can destroy a city, although the cost of a single "Giant Spirit God" is about 10 million silver dollars.

Come on, let you go crazy.

Liu Xie really has no better way. Liu Xie specifically wrote back to the Northern Power Research Institute for this matter, asking them to consider using tracked rollers when they really have no choice, so that they may solve the problem of movement.

Liu Xie had never thought at this time why the "Giant Spirit God" attracted the attention of most scholars. He only knew that there was no such monster in history. (Computer reading .cn) But the actual result was that the Han Empire spent 4 billion silver dollars through ten years of hard work, and finally completed the development of the "Giant Spirit God", and continued to transform in the next hundred years, and eventually became the terrifying weapon of the Han Empire second only to the cavalry system. For four hundred years, it has been the main armament in the entire Han Empire's army. At its peak, the Han Empire had more than 400 giant spirit gods, and almost every city had one. As long as there was one giant spirit god, it would be impossible to achieve any rebellion in the local area.

Due to the expensive cost and powerful power of the "Giant Spirit God", the peasant uprising completely disappeared from the Han Empire. No armed force could compete with the Central Army. After the "Giant Spirit God" gradually assembled into various parts of the northern grasslands, the strength between the nomadic peoples and industrial peoples in the northern grasslands was suddenly widened. It was impossible for a fortress guarded by the "Giant Spirit God".

During the Third Silk War, when the Romans fought to Tunisia, only one giant god on the coast determined the fate of the two countries at the last moment.

Roman general Stolmouth once commented on the "Giant God" like this--this is a nightmare for all naval ships. You cannot hurt its muscles, but it can smash you into pieces.

After the "Giant Spirit God" really appeared, people were disappointed with it for a long time. Because it could only move twenty miles a day, but it was not until the war broke out. People discovered that even without using artillery, the "Giant Spirit God" could easily crush all cavalry troops with its huge steel body.

When China was 440 years old, when the Central Military Office officially decided to stop the manufacturing of "Giant Spirit God", the army fully equipped the diesel-powered "Xuanwu Fort" system provided by the Yellow River Arms Trading Company, a huge lament occurred in the entire Han Empire. Whenever people mentioned the king of land, people could think of "Giant Spirit God", the uncrowned king among the land armies.

However, none of this could be judged by Liu Xie. Until the successful development of the "Giant Spirit God", he still refused to think that the "Giant Spirit God" was a useful military equipment. Many people think that this is the difference between him and Liu Wei.

The "Gianling God" systematically researched and created a large number of new technologies for the Han Empire, such as welding rods, tracks, rotating shafts, Wuwei breech muskets, steel rolling..., forty new technologies that had a long impact on later generations were born from this system project. Even later machine guns, grenades, mines, and armor-piercing bombs benefited from the "Gianling God" system. Even fierce explosives slowly emerged in the "Gianling God" system project. The royal water heater also experienced three major technical reforms in the "Gianling God" system.

It can be said that without such a "giant spirit" system, new things with higher technical levels such as trains, ships, etc. in the Han Empire would not have appeared smoothly. This can almost be said to be the first large-scale national system project carried out by the Han Empire, which concentrated the best scholars, technicians, and military experts together.

As he tasted a lot of sweetness in the "Gianling God" system project, the scientific and technological research of the Han Empire also began to show a system engineering-centered model. Emperors of all dynasties were keen to concentrate all their financial resources on a systematic study of a new process, a submarine project code-named "Crocodile" submarine project code-named "Chengtu", a global radio project code-named "Flying Pigeon", an aircraft project code-named "Eagle"... Of course, there are also aircraft carrier projects code-named "Yahan King" and "Chang'e" moon landing project.

The empire inherited this systematic engineering research of honor through generations of emperors, and hoped that the Chinese spiritual emperor Liu Wei, who was always famous because of the "giant spirit god" - forever recorded in history.

As Liu Wei said, there are usually only three ways to prove that you are a good emperor. The first is the tax and benefit of the people, the second is the prosperity of the army, the strong country and the superior people, and the third is the progress of science and technology.

To put it clearly, if you want to leave your reputation in the history of the Han Empire, first of all, don’t have high tax rates, medium-sized welfare, too low taxes, and it will not provide better welfare and education, which will be detrimental to the long-term development of the country, ensure that the rich make money, and at the same time, receive taxes from the rich, and provide a pretty good living environment for the poor. If the living environment is too good, the people will completely lose motivation; secondly, you must have strong military power, and the military power is weak and humiliated by other countries. No matter how good you do in other aspects, it will be useless. Therefore, you must have the strongest military power to ensure that the country is a superpower. As long as your country is a superpower and your citizens are high-level citizens no matter where you go to the world, that’s fine; thirdly, you must achieve very significant scientific and technological progress during your tenure, so that people will think of you as soon as people mention a great technological revolution.

When Liu Wei left the position of emperor, he explained these three sentences to his prince and added this article to the royal family rules drafted by Liu Xie, telling future generations that being a good emperor is actually very simple. You can speculate in many places and you don’t need to worry so much to become a Ming emperor.

It has been half a month since Liu Xie arrived on the Gold Coast. During this period, the Foreign Affairs Department has been contacting chiefs from all over West Africa. Liu Xie also receives a large number of chiefs every day, but their language is very difficult to understand. It takes a long time for the forty translators to fully translate it, and communication between them has always been in a relatively difficult situation.

As the translation work continues to achieve various achievements, communication has also become more convenient. Liu Xie decided to hold a West African banquet in one month. Through this banquet, he will invite twenty-six local chiefs to selectively support them in establishing their respective city-states. About ten years later, coordinated communication between city-states, and finally formed four to five Confederate countries.

At present, West Africa is still in a slave society, and even some tribes are still primitive. It is obviously difficult to implement democracy and choose the head of state of the Confederate State. However, if you choose a dual monarchy that combines politics and religion, it is relatively possible, but it is very difficult. Therefore, Liu Xie decided to implement the Confederate Kingdom system in West Africa first, and seven or eight city-states unite together. Whoever becomes king will be decided by the Han Empire first, and every new king will first gain the recognition of the pope.

Under this confederate system, West Africa will still maintain a long period of turmoil, because it is not easy to reach some consensus agreements among the city-states. Therefore, the Confederate is only a transitional stage. Finally, with the support of the Han Dynasty, some city-states that are completely inclined to the Han Empire can achieve final unification, move from the Confederate to the federal nature, and establish a centralized kingdom, which will help the Han Dynasty safeguard its own interests in West Africa.
