Chapter 1213: The Weapon of the State
Fang Jifan very much disagrees with Zhu Houzhao's evaluation of the liar. This guy, after all, is still too young to be like a human being in his own two lives.
A few days later, 520,000 pieces of silver were ready.
There is a lot of money flowing in the market, and for inflation, it is staggering.
Now that I have the money, I have to do it.
If you take other people's money and don't do anything, that's called fraud.
And Fang Jifan is a conscientious person, the Happiness Group was established, and he has begun to recruit people in the desert.
Eating and sheltering is a fatal temptation for the people of the desert tribes.
Not only that, but there will be a lot of bonuses in the future, of course, provided that you can use the knife and dare to fight and kill.
In fact, the personnel recruited by the Happiness Group are very complicated, in addition to the Tatars and Jurchens, even the Usi Tibetans and other tribes are also contained, and if the Han people are willing to join, they are naturally welcome.
Most of these people are outlaws in the desert, as long as they are young and can ride horses.
Not only that, but a group of young people, after being carefully selected by Wang Shouren, were sent to Jingshi.
Fang Jifan has always believed in the power of education, and it is not a bad thing to select some of the smarter people to Xishan to educate them.
A total of 150 people came, including 67 Tatars, Siberian and other Mongol tribes, more than 30 savages, Jianzhou, Haixi Jurchens, and a small number of Uszang and Western Regions, and 29 Han Chinese
These young people, who are directly enrolled in the school, teach not only the Chinese language, but also military knowledge.
In fact, it is also a headache to gather so many people together, but ...... Everything...... Just take your time.
Not only that, Xishan Academy will also send a group of personnel to the desert to be controlled by Wang Shouren, these people will come in handy, they will either carry out medical treatment, or teaching, the language is the first step, if they don't understand the language, how to control the desert tribes in the future, they will be assigned to every pasture and tribe......
Xishan Academy is based on new learning, and it pays attention to the unity of knowledge and action, so there are many people who want to go to the desert.
For this reason, Fang Jifan specially held a farewell ceremony, and hundreds of students, in the noisy sky of gongs and drums, rode horses one after another and headed towards the desert.
That's what we do to our shareholders.
At least, shareholders saw the scene and celebrated.
It's stable, it's stable, this time it's stable.
On the same day, the stock market began to rise slightly.
Look, Xishan has dispatched all its own baby students, or more than 300 people, what does this mean? It shows that the palace must have invested silver, Qi Guogong's dog thing, it is said that he has a whisker and a horse, observes words and looks, and is proficient in everything, he wants to vote for His Majesty's favor, but doesn't he want to take out all the things at the bottom of the box?
Now, the shareholders are full of confidence, and the money has not been spent in vain.
A group of desert students, after training, two of them have stood out.
One is called Nairentai, which is a Tatar, and the other is called Zhang Yong.
These two men, who were wiser than the other students, learned things quickly, and soon established their prestige among the one hundred and fifty people.
They practiced during the day, continued to learn archery and horses, and after dinner, they began to learn writing, or learn some military knowledge, and after more than a month, the vast majority of people, ordinary spoken Chinese, for the vast majority of students, is no longer too much of an obstacle.
After all, when it was sent, the vast majority of young people were already the best, and they had some background.
Immediately afterwards, Fang Jifan took a group of students to the Xishan Military Research Institute.
This Xishan Military Research Institute has always been obscure.
After all, this thing, except for the silver of the flower side, has almost no achievements.
Occasionally, something is made out and is not known to the general public.
At the beginning, it was such a group of people, who were ordered to cast cannons, most of these people were distant relatives of Empress Zhang, and they stayed because of the success of casting cannons, and Fang Jifan gave them something to do, that is, to study various weapons.
Of course, the greater reason for the obscurity of the military research institute is that it is difficult for them to have anything groundbreaking.
The vast majority of the things they have come up with are based on the Steam Research Institute.
In order to study the steam engine, the entire Xishan used all the manpower and material resources, the research of materials, the study of machinery, and many principles of mechanics and physics, all of which came from the Steam Research Institute.
When these technologies gradually mature and improve, other researches, on this basis, can take off.
For example, in this military research institute, a firecracker, people hope that it is more convenient, and hopefully, it has greater power, but this in the past, it is unimaginable, for no other reason, because of the limited material, when the firearm is more powerful, it is necessary to place more gunpowder, but too much gunpowder, the power is strengthened, if the gun tube is not thick enough, there will inevitably be the danger of exploding.
And once the thickness of the gun tube is enhanced, then ...... Light, there is no way to mention it.
Otherwise, this fire gun has become a 'big guy' carried by two people, and the power is not small. Otherwise, one person can operate it, but the power is limited.
And the materials of the Steam Research Institute, after a thousand miles, these will not be a problem.
There are also many mechanical principles, almost all of which are copied from the neat research institute, and the effect is remarkable, with the deepening of steam research, almost all the research on all technologies in Xishan is actually taking off.
Right now...... In this weapons exhibition hall, there are all kinds of firearms hanging in a dazzling manner.
There are long, narrow bird guns, and three-eyed firearms that are more convenient than before, and under each firegun, there is a special introduction, and its accuracy, range, power, and time required to shoot are all described in detail.
Nairentai, Zhang Yong and others, entering here, were dazzled, these students, quietly looking at the weapons on display one by one, in addition to firearms, there are also all kinds of war knives, long hair, bows and arrows...... These weapons have their own characteristics, and the blade, under the light of the candle flame, is cold.
Nairentai's eyes let out light, and he looked at a war knife, and his eyes couldn't leave it.
Zhang Yong's interest is in the fire gun, the narrow bird gun, its production, can be described as ingenious.
Fang Jifan could feel that many people's throats were rolling.
These are all a group of hot-blooded young people, who love to fight and kill, and when they see their favorite weapons, they are like seeing a stunning woman.
In this world, not everyone is like Fang Jifan, detached from low-level interests.
Fang Jifan smiled: "Now, the master will give you a question." ”
Everyone looked at Fang Jifan.
When they came to Xishan, they realized how great this ancestor who founded the sect was.
When they were in the desert, although they had memories of Fang Jifan, they were not profound, but since they came here, any teacher and student, even the most ordinary farmers in Xishan, or the vendors selling sweet potatoes in the academy, mentioned the ancestor, and their eyes lit up.
People in this closed environment, every day imperceptibly, all they hear every day is a praise to the ancestors, naturally, deep in their hearts, the seeds have been planted, everyone looked at Fang Jifan respectfully: "Please ask the ancestor to ask the question." ”
Fang Jifan put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "In the future, you let them organize men and horses, go all the way west, and encounter the Rus, what kind of weapons to use, the best." ”
Nairentai's eyes lit up, and he took a bow and arrow from the wall: "I use cavalry to shoot, as long as there are enough bows and arrows, keep them and let the Naros people flee in the wilderness." ”
Zhang Yong pointed at the bird gun with burning eyes: "This bird gun, if it is the power and range it records, it is really not a boast, I think about it, it is more powerful than a bow and arrow." ”
"...... with such a sword"
"I think ......"
Fang Jifan listened attentively to their gossip.
Finally, Fang Jifan coughed.
Everyone was silent, and looked at Fang Jifan.
Fang Jifan said with a smile: "I think, only Nairentai is half right. ”
Fang Jifan continued: "The desert is too vast, even if one day, you have crossed the yellow sands of the Western Regions, crossed the Ural Mountains, and reached the plains of the Rus' people, if you don't rely on war horses, you won't be able to maneuver quickly. ”
"Since this is the case, then cavalry shooting is indeed the most advantageous tactic for attacking cities and conquering cities."
Nairentai suddenly turned red, it is really not easy to get the praise of the ancestor, Shigong Wang Shouren, such a powerful person, this Xishan Academy, there is no one who does not admire him, but ...... Didn't Shizu often say behind his back that he was mediocre in appearance and mediocre in qualifications?
Fang Jifan then said: "But ......"
When it comes to it, it's ......
Narentai's face changed.
Fang Jifan scolded: "You dog, do you only know how to ride and shoot?" Let me ask you, how many cavalry can be gathered in the desert? ”
"This ......" Nairentai was silent for a moment: "There are 100,000." ”
"Yes, 100,000...... 100,000 warriors who are good at riding and archery, but with only 100,000 people, can they go all the way to the west? This riding archery, an ordinary person, even if he has practiced since childhood, if his qualifications are mediocre and he can't be proficient, I think that among these 100,000 people, there are no longer a few who are indiscriminately filled, and there are 30,000 people who are really qualified to ride and shoot, which is already remarkable. But what about the others, the Jurchen tribes, as well as the Mongolian tribes, the number of people is no less than hundreds of thousands, millions of people, can everyone ride and shoot? ”
"Therefore, you dog thing, only half of the answer is right, riding and shooting, you can have. But if you want to fight on horseback, you also need to have a weapon that can be easily used without repeated practice, even if it is a farmer, as long as you can ride a horse, within three days, you can use a weapon skillfully, such a weapon is the magic weapon in the west, but, I am really disappointed, there are so many of you, there is no one who answered correctly. ”
…………
The operation was successful, but it was kept outside for too long, it seems that there are only two watches today, and the remaining one will be doubled after a while, sorry.
