Chapter 147: How Good It Is to Turn Waste into Treasure
Hiss, Liu Jun felt a cool breath rise in his heart.
Zhong Lin's words are very clear to him, that is, doing this today, he made it clear to tell the court, don't bother with this, no matter how big an official I am, I won't go.
This is a good performance of the strong mouth of the imperial court and local ministers, if it is a wise emperor or leader, it will be just like this, endure the anger for a while, in exchange for peace for all generations, but Liu Jun is not sure this time, after all, the leaders of the Qing Empire are not wise people.
Needless to say, Guangxu doesn't say anything, and if a puppet doesn't say anything, he can't tell the difference between the enemy and the enemy.
After Weihai was occupied, the emperor actually said in the Jinluan Palace, as long as he gave him 5,000 soldiers and horses, he could take Weihai.
is not ashamed, after these words reached Liu Jun's ears, he laughed for a day.
5,000 soldiers and horses, and it is also the Eight Banners. The Lushun army didn't dare to say this, but Guangxu dared to say it.
Cixi, although there is nothing unwise at present, but Liu Jun knows that this old woman, if she is not wise, she is not a person.
A man who knew that he could not even defeat a single country declared war on eleven countries at the same time in one day.
Such a charm can only be made by Cixi.
Now, Liu Jun can not think about Guangxu, but pay attention to Cixi's attitude, Liu Jun knows from later generations that this old woman has a famous saying, rather than to a friend, rather than a slave.
Liu Jun had to be careful, after all, a woman who went crazy was quite terrifying.
After giving the order for Feng Guozhang, Duan Qirui, Zhang Yi, and Luo Dacheng to return to Lushun quickly, looking at Beiyang where Zhong Lin left, Liu Jun remembered something.
Coming to the desk made of nanmu that belonged to Ding Ruchang at the time, Liu Jun sat down, opened the drawer, and took out a document from it.
This is an order for the regrouping of the Arthur Army.
After Japan's surrender, Liu Jun discovered a problem, Lushun's current establishment is very chaotic.
Those who originally belonged to the First Army were indeed in the Second Army, and those who were originally in the Second Army were then in the Fourth Army. Liu Jun understands that the reason for this problem is not that someone below is making small moves. Rather, because of the situation on the battlefield at that time, troops had to be transferred.
Now these still don't see any shortcomings, but Liu Jun knows that once a war breaks out, then there will be an unfavorable situation of transfer. After a few days of consideration, Liu Jun decided to carry out a complete reorganization of all the armies, except for the navy.
The reason why the order was delayed was that considering the imperial court, reorganization and large-scale transfers were inevitable. He was worried that it would irritate the imperial court, but now, since he had to prepare, Liu Jun had to take it out again.
Since even the emperor's teacher has been beaten, what are you still worried about, don't you just tear your face? Who is afraid of whom. It's a big deal to fight you,
Sign your name and prepare to go down when the recalled officer arrives.
Standing up, Liu Jun walked a few laps, and he thought that if the imperial court really went to war, it would probably be a big war.
Although the Qing army resisted foreign enemies, although it was not possible, they fought in the nest, which was their strength.
Although the Qing army was afraid of foreigners, it was quite strong in fighting in the nest. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was a good example.
The Qing army, which fled when it encountered the foreign army, dared to stumble in front of the Taiping army, and finally exterminated the Taiping army. Liu Jun didn't think that he had the same strong troops as the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and some only had some advanced arms and troop training.
Weapons, weapons must increase speed, Liu Jun thought of this, grabbed the military hat that was put aside, and walked out of the door, he was going to the arsenal.
The arsenal, located outside Changcheng Town, where Liu Jun once besieged the 11th Brigade, chose here because Changcheng Town is a center, leading to Dandong, Liaoyang, and Yingkou are relatively convenient, and the ammunition produced here has other equipment, which can quickly reach all parts of the country and be distributed to the soldiers.
One kilometer away from the arsenal, is the Changcheng Town, although the last war almost destroyed the Changcheng Town, but after the Battle of Dalian, Liu Jun ordered the appropriation for a rest, so although it is not as big as the original, it is also a prosperous town.
Coming to the arsenal and handing over the horses to the guards who came together, Liu Jun looked at the dozen or so houses cut out of bricks and stones, smiled slightly, and Liu Jun stepped in.
Although Wu Datong is in charge here, Wu Datong is busy with government affairs, so the person who is really in charge of this place is Mark, a technician sent by the German Mauser Company.
The soldier who signaled to go to the report continued to stand guard, Liu Jun walked straight to the office, pushed open the door at once, and saw Wu Datong discussing something with Mark.
Seeing that it was Liu Jun, Wu Datong immediately stood up, and after saying hello, Wu Datong gave up his position. motioned for Liu Jun to sit down.
Smiled at Mark, Liu Jun was not polite, sat down, handed the military hat to Zhong Lin, who came together, and glanced at the two of them: "You guys are discussing something with excitement on your face, I'll listen to it." ”
"Liu, you're the smartest man I've ever met, thirty-five-year-old, bearded Mark smiled and gave a thumbs up.
Strange thing, is this discussion just saying that I am smart or not, Liu Jun thought of this suspiciously, and then looked at Wu Datong.
Although Wu Datong was also full of smiles, he didn't have the same face as Mark, but said directly: "Dashuai, just now we were thinking about whether we were building a few arsenals. ”
To establish an arsenal, Liu Jun suddenly remembered that after the weapons were produced, they wanted to put them into the warehouse and then distribute them in a unified manner. 、
"Didn't I give the order and set up three arsenals, isn't that enough?" Liu Jun asked suspiciously.
"Marshal, if it was the original generation speed, of course it would be possible, but now, I'm afraid these three arsenals can't be satisfied." Seeing that Liu Jun was still a little vague, Wu Datong coughed softly and explained the reason.
It turned out that after Liu Jun got angry last time, Wu Datong was full of shame and vowed to put the arsenal in order. He thought it was the workers who were lazy, so he once put on makeup and went to observe, preparing to find a few lazy people and then get off the horse. However, he was disappointed, these workers, no one was lazy, they were trying to sit, but the output just couldn't go up.
At the critical moment, the thing written by Liu Jun helped him a lot.
What Liu Jun gave him at that time was the assembly line operation of later generations.
At that time, Wu Datong was also a little unconvinced, so after coming back, he and Mark discussed and decided to do an experiment.
They decided to draw five people each, one side was to unilaterally complete all the production, and the other side did produce separately, and the final result surprised Wu Datong and even Mark.
In the two-hour experiment, the Mauser rifles produced unilaterally were fifteen, and the pair produced separately reached an astonishing one hundred and fifty rifles, and the efficiency increased tenfold at once.
So that's the case, Liu Jun smiled, when he came, he was worried that the weapon could not be produced quickly, but now, he was a little relieved. In his opinion, there are more than 500 people in the entire arsenal, and in this way, the production of 1,000 rifles and one artillery cannon a day can meet the needs of the troops.
"Let's go, let's take a look," Liu Jun was interested in getting the efficiency improvement, and wanted to go to the factory for a walk.
Liu Jun wanted to go, where did Wu Datong disagree, so he nodded and let him take Liu Jun to the arsenal located in the north.
Wrinkled, Liu Jun was very satisfied with the current production, and when he came to a corner, Liu Jun found that there was a large pile of broken iron pieces in the corner.
"What is this?" Liu Jun grabbed a piece of iron that had already been rusted and put it in his hand,
Wu Datong looked at it and hurriedly said: "Dashuai, when producing gun barrels, there will be some waste, and these wastes can no longer be used, so we found a room to pile them up."
Scrap, Liu Jun looked at the same broken iron pieces as Xiaoshan, Liu Jun really felt that there was some science and technology association.
Such things can't be taken out of the furnace, after all, these things are not worth pulling out and melting, so the cost is too big.
But if it is placed here, it is rusty like this, and Liu Jun is a little reluctant.
How can we turn waste into treasure? Liu Jun picked up these pieces of iron and couldn't help but close his eyes.
Zhong Lin had nothing to do, and grabbed a piece: "Yo, it's quite sharp, Rao has to pay attention, if you don't close it, this place will explode, I promise that you will be all iron by then, tsk." Zhong Lin joked.
Explosion, shrapnel, Liu Jun opened his eyes violently, why didn't he think that these things, although they can't be tolerated, can cause a very terrifying bomb.
