I am the king of the dead

Chapter 59 Zhu Qizhen, His Majesty asked the minister to bring a word

Compared with the previous one, the fourth one has changed from blowing hot air from the original front package to blowing cold air from the converter.

Now iron melting and steel blowing have been divided into two steps, but the safety has been greatly improved, there is no danger of the previous fryer, and the efficiency has been greatly improved.

From the [-] jin of the first furnace, each furnace can make more than [-] jin of steel every day. This is not the limit of the four Jingtai furnaces, but because the charcoal firing speed is too slow, the supply is in short supply.

Now Jingtai furnace urgently needs a new type of fuel. It is not easy to burn charcoal, and because of the strong walls and clear fields, the wood can be used for a short period of time, but the supply of charcoal is extremely unstable.

Several people were gathered in front of the Jingtai furnace, discussing how to find better fuels, but the coal from Xishan still could not meet the standard even after being selected.

Zhu Qiyu stood behind a few masters and listened for a long time, and suddenly said, "Since you can get charcoal by burning firewood, what about burning coal? Will you get what you want?"

"I heard that the Boshan Glass Factory often has its odor, which is smelted into reefs to cook glass. The owner of the Boshan Glass Factory has a cloud: Coal is produced everywhere, and the odor is melted and closed into stone, and then chiseled and smashed. Burning Sun Reef."

Several masters noticed that Zhu Qiyu didn't know when to arrive, and hurriedly bowed his head and said, "See Your Majesty, Your Majesty is holy."

"Is what Your Majesty said about Mao charcoal?" The great craftsman Xu Siqi frowned and said, "There are several Mao charcoal furnaces in our hometown. They were built in the Northern Song Dynasty and have been in use until now."

"Dare to ask where the master's hometown is?" Zhu Qiyu was stunned. Boshan Glass Factory is very famous. They are famous for firing glass.

He also only knew that coal could be burned into charcoal, but he didn't know how to burn it.

But according to this old master, Daming actually has a ready-made charcoal stove?

Xu Siqi frowned as he recalled, and said subconsciously, "A certain hometown, a famous mansion."

"I think about the furnace. The furnace is a dome-shaped pot, ranging from eight feet to three feet in diameter. The coal is cleaned, washed with water to remove the gangue, and the coal is loaded into the furnace to be tightened. The top of the furnace is covered with mud and vented holes are drilled. ."

"The smelting time in the furnace can be as little as four or five days, or as many as ten days. It takes as long as the calcined smoke is as long as it is slightly water stained."

"Yes, that's it."

Zhu Qiyu didn't understand the king or coking, but obviously the master craftsman Xu Siqi understood it, and that was enough.

He nodded and said, "Let's give it a try. How many silver taels are needed, just report it to the Ministry of Industry for record."

"Caomin leads the decree." Xu Siqi was ecstatic and bowed his head with a long bow.

Zhu Qiyu lifted him up and said, "I can call myself a minister in the future. This is the craftsman's title proposed by Shangshu. I have ordered the Ministry of Industry, Ministry of Personnel, and Ministry of Rites to supervise it."

He asked Shi Pu to introduce Daming's new craftsmanship system to the craftsmen, and watched the craftsmen talk about the craftsmanship with great interest.

Zhu Qiyu quietly left Wang Gongchang, got on his horse, and said, "Go to Deshengmen."

Jin Yiwei opened the way, and Zhu Qiyu led the people towards Deshengmen. He climbed the city wall, picked up the telescopic mirror, and looked at the small Tucheng ten miles away.

He turned his head and said: "Lu Zhong, you tell Yu Shangshu to prevent the Oara people from sneaking up, and by the way, you can contact Tuotuobuhua, saying that the Oara people are rebellious, and I intend to confer nobility, but it is inconvenient, so let him pass on the war report of Oara. "

"Let Shangshu Yu carefully screen and screen the information to see if it's accurate, let's see if it's sincere."

"The command of the last general!" Lu Zhong grabbed the ropes hanging on the top of the city, and quickly slid down. When he reached the bottom of the city, he got on his horse and walked towards the civilian house outside Desheng Gate.

At this time, Zhao Rong, the censor Wang Fu and Hu Kewei, took the Longyan banner and headed for the small Tucheng outside Desheng Gate.

He also held two portraits in his hand first. They were the portraits of Yu Qian and Shi Heng. Although they were simple, it could be seen at a glance that the two people who came were not the people in the paintings in his hands.

Xi Ning looked at Wang Fu and Zhao Rong in front of him with a solemn expression. He knew that his plan had failed.

This means that the throne of King Yu has been stabilized, and the people in the city who support their master Zhu Qizhen can no longer be the master.

This was a temptation, and it was a temptation that Xi Ning knew very well first.

They all wanted to know that Zhu Qizhen, the emperor, still had some value to the Ming Dynasty, and now it is obvious that Zhu Qizhen has little value.

"See Emperor Taishang, Emperor Jinan." Wang Fu and Zhao Rong sighed heavily, and after bowing their heads, they stood up straight.

Wang Fu straightened his back and said loudly, "Your Majesty, let your majesty have a word!"

"The company is the most important, and the king is the light."

After Wang Fu finished saying this, he bowed his head again, and slowly exited the Tucheng outside Deshengmen. Their task was to meet and bring words to the court. Since they met Zhu Qizhen, they also brought the words to the court. , then it is naturally inconvenient for them to stay.

Hearing this sentence, Zhu Qizhen's complexion changed dramatically, his face was red and then white, and the words of the final reprimand were on his lips, but he could not say it for a long time.

He clearly knew that he might no longer be important.

He also showed a mocking smile first, stood up, patted Xi Ning on the shoulder, and walked towards the camp.

He also returned to the tent of the Central Army, and talked about the matter in Tucheng with the generals in the tent from beginning to end. Inside the tent, the generals looked solemn.

They realized that things weren't going so well.

They came here mainly for blackmail, to see if they could use Zhu Qizhen as a chess piece to break through the capital of the Ming Dynasty and restore the former glory of Dayuan.

Changed Beijing's name to Khan Bali and became the lord of the Central Plains again.

However, it seems very difficult.

The next best thing is to extort a sum of blackmail. If you can hold Zhu Qizhen to negotiate, draw the border and govern, and get Hetao, Datong, and even Xuanfu, that would be great.

However, Daming didn't mean to talk about it at all.Put on a pair, come to do it, and it is not enough to kill one, and the posture is endless.

Polo stood up, stood in front of a huge map, and said helplessly: "Khan, Taishi, this is the nine gates of Daming, and the rest of the doors are blocked, and these nine gates, we yesterday The investigation has already started under the city."

"However, the return of the visit to the horse is confusing."

"We couldn't find which of the nine gates the main force of the Daming army was stationed in. Yu Qian spread his troops outside the nine gates and stood by."

"And the way to fight is to avoid the main force of our army, use a small group of harassment, and attack everywhere, our army is overwhelmed."

As Ye Xian's younger brother, Polo has been fighting for more than ten years, and he has never seen such a Ming army. They are elusive, and there are traps everywhere. They have damaged about hundreds of scout horses, but they are completely unable to find out the information.

This is the tone set by Yu Qian at the pre-war meeting: in the main direction of the battle, conceal the main force, stand by and move, attack with small groups, attack everywhere, confuse the enemy, and make Oara confused.

Tuotuobuhua sighed and said: "If the Ming army is so easy to deal with, will we retreat to Mobei? We have fought against Daming for more than 80 years, and we only won one battle in Tumubao."

What Tuotuo Buhua told was the truth. He was even more reluctant to fight with Daming. He fought back and forth, Daming launched a division, and he was the one who beat him up. As soon as the Wala people ran to the Western Regions to hide, he was the one who suffered Daming's anger.

But...he said it doesn't count!
