Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Only a few days after the Khitan envoys arrived in Beijing, the Koreans were relieved about the Tamra Island. .(?.C〔o

The Liao State hopes to negotiate peace.

After years of war, countless people died, and peace was long overdue. Guo Shao once again confirmed his concept: the so-called peace is nothing more than a balance created by war; when opponents understand that war has to pay the same heavy price, they will cherish peace.

Guo Shao decreed that, on the one hand, he said that the Khitan and the Central Plains have a very close relationship. During the Tang Dynasty, it was the court border town of the Central Plains. But on the other hand, the Liao State was required to be a courtier in order to endure the righteousness of the emperor and minister.

As for the Liao State's promise or not to be a minister, it is not important. Most of them will not agree. After all, Liao State is also a big country dominating the northern grasslands. Anyway, the Liao Kingdom did not dare to attack the Central Plains at this time, and it would be useless to discuss peace if they really dare to fight!

The Korean envoys soon played and asked the Da Xu court about the attitude of the Liao Dynasty.

Guo Shao asked the Ministry of Ritual to reply to Goryeo, many of them fought for years, and the people were suffering and waited to recuperate. The purpose of borrowing Tamra Island is to facilitate maritime trade with Korea and Baek (through "Japan") and to accumulate military expenditures for the national treasury.

Goryeo would never think that Xu Chao borrowed Tamra Island to attack them... Even if the Central Plains wanted to conquer Goryeo, it would be from Route 6, which was much more convenient. Going from the sea to the remote Tamra Island, the sea is turbulent, which is a thankless thing. ╞┡╡.<.

…In early summer, the crops on both sides of the Bianshui River are lush and lush, and everything is full of vitality. The artificial river dug out of the Bianshui River is also full of water. Guo Shao came here surrounded by the official guards, and heard the sound of water scouring from a long distance and the heavy sound of hammers.

Guo Shao looked up and saw that the sky was filled with black smoke and noisy. If you don't look at the classical city walls and buildings, this battle is like entering a factory area.

The place enclosed by the city wall is called Jiafangfang. In fact, weapons, firearms and other ordnance are forged; this name has been used since it was built to forge armor.

I have to ask why the huge Da Xu Dynasty is so short of money. Except for the hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops who eat the royal food, the whole city in front of the artisans and young people are supported by the national treasury. Apart from the artisans and officials, they are their families; Not to mention the consumption of raw materials shipped here every day.

He was accompanied by military supervisor Zan Jurun, Dragon Army commander Han Tong and others. Han Tong was going to see the bronze guns specially made for battleships. The guns used by the navy were different. The main components were different in structure. For example, to use iron chains on the ship. Buffer the recoil of the artillery, recast the lugs, etc.

And Guo Shao went to inspect the armaments. The emperor's visit from time to time can play a role. It not only understands the equipment production of the army, but also puts pressure on the armor workshop to prevent them from shoddy construction and excessive corruption.

Guo Shao knew very well that he was greedy for ink from top to bottom. Last time Li Chuyun mentioned that the county officials' collection of money was just a prying eyes. ╪┟. [. Guo Shao also had no good solutions. People died for money and birds died for food. It is difficult for government-run yamen not to be greedy. Besides, when the water is clear, there will be no fish. He only hopes that this group of people will not be too ugly and not too overwhelmed. If they are greedy for money, they can do good things.

"Your Majesty has longevity!" A group of people bowed outside the city gate. Guo Shao didn't say a word in the carriage. After a while, **** Yang Shiliang said: "Your Majesty let you be flat."

When a group of people entered the city gate, Guo Shao picked up the curtain of the car, and saw the dust and smoke filled the sky, which was completely different from the scene of Tokyo. They then entered another city gate, which was an important area for workshops and yamen.

When he reached the gate of the city, Guo Shao stepped off the carriage, and the pattern on the wall immediately aroused his interest, because it was a scale.

He went up to observe and saw that it was a fine straight line engraved on marble with scales on it. Immediately an official came up and bowed and said: "All workshops in the city use this scale to avoid the different sizes of workshops and the difficulty of division of labor."

Guo Shao turned around and said to Zan Jurun: "This city has been built for several years and it has been effective."

Zan Jurun was praised with a smile on his face, and said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Guo Shao stood in front of Zhaobi and stayed for a while and did not go in. Only some eunuchs and officials entered... People from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Households went in to check the accounts.

The minister and general followed Guo Shao directly to inspect the workshop.

As soon as I entered the workshop, it was extremely hot and stuffy, and the sound was almost deafening. Guo Shao walked over to the sound of "wow," and he saw something rough and complicated in structure. A bronze cannon is mounted on a rack, the body of which is clamped by cast iron objects, and it is fixed with wedge. The fast-rotating muzzle made Guo Shao very interested.

It was turning like a big drill. Guo Shao took a closer look and found that the transmission was a hydraulic transmission wheel like a forging hammer, which was driven by an iron chain. One large and one small wheel turned fast. A shirtless craftsman was wiping the sweat from his forehead while dipping oil on the iron chain.

Zan Jurun said: "Your Majesty, this is grinding the barrel. After the bronze cannon is cast, the barrel is rough and uneven. You have to polish it smoothly and flat, with a drill made of a whetstone. At first, the armor workshop used human drills, but the drills were too rough. It's heavy, it's really slow. Then everyone asked the craftsmen to make this thing according to the water wheel of the forging hammer."

There is a smog here, but Guo Shao is a little excited. This thing is far from being called a machine tool, mainly because the vise for fixing the object (barrel) is too crude, and the drill bit is not very useful. But the armor workshop has gradually learned to make tools to process weapons, which is a great progress.

Guo Shao pondered for a moment and pointed to the chain drive wheel and said, "This thing is not easy to use, you can use gears instead, try something."

Zan Jurun was a little at a loss.

Guo Shao said, "I will return to the Yamen later and show you the painting."

He pointed to the frame of the barrel: "This table can also be improved, and there are drill bits. No matter how hard the whetstone is, how much can it be used? No wonder you are so slow in casting guns. Make some rules and reward those who figure out. The positions of effective craftsmen, military supervisors and officials of the Ministry of Industry, do not hesitate to reward craftsmen with great achievements."

Zan Jurun clasped his fist and said loudly: "Chen Zunzhi."

Everyone went to another workshop, where the craftsmen were making matchlocks, and many people were drilling and sharpening the barrels with simple but ingenious tools. Guo Shao had seen that kind of tool, but he didn't know it, but Luban's apprentice had revealed that it was mainly used by carpenters, probably based on the twisting force of hemp rope. Seeing the craftsmen push and pull the wooden tools up and down, the awl bit in the middle rotates back and forth.

The fire|gun used by Xu Jun has limited range and lethality, but it requires a lot of work to do. There are many people who divide labor to do various processes~www.readwn.com~Guo Shao, also known as the craftsman of the workshop, took a list to see how to manage the division of labor, and put forward some improvement methods on the spot...Guo Shao never learned management, but he knew The most basic concept: assembly line and standard operation. In fact, this set of things was used in the Qin Dynasty, but later dynasties have forgotten the methods of their ancestors.

This piece of armor building has been in operation for several years, and Guo Shao took a tour and saw its progress. As long as the basic things are built, and with the soil for development, Guo Shao believes that everything will evolve!

By noon, Guo Shao came out of the workshop and stood in front of the waterfall-like "hydraulic engine" (using a mule and horse in the dry season), and his mood was very different.

The loud ding and rattling noises in the workshop seemed to be turned into a beautiful symphony in Guo Shao's ears, and like the heartbeat of a huge machine. From here, many dreams will become possible.

The sun is shining on the earth quietly in the air, everything will be a new beginning under the sun. Guo Shao is waiting for a huge amount of currency to inject new impetus into his dream!
