This shocked all the courtiers. Zhang Zijun, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, made some nonsense in the court, but got the support of the emperor and rehabilitated Yu Qian.

After going to court, the ministers were talking a lot. Some people said that Zhang Zijun was a member of the imperial party. There was such a tacit understanding of what was going on in the court today. No, the lower officials did not look alike. Zhang Zijun was still of the same lineage as Li Ge. This was the cabinet.

The double act performed with the emperor was just uttered by Zhang Shilang.

No, this Zhang Shilang is unfathomable. On the surface, he laughs and curses, but in fact he is a hidden thorn left by the late emperor.

Those who discuss things during the next court period are just people with humble official positions, while those who are truly powerful remain silent.

Later, the emperor gave a sacrifice to Yu Qian, and the edict said: "When the country is in trouble, he defends the country from danger, and upholds justice alone, and is jealous of the powerful and treacherous officials. The late emperor was aware of his injustice when he was still alive, and I really pity him."

His loyalty...                        

Zhang Zijun's goal was to have a place that he could completely control. Now that his goal was achieved, the matter regarding Qian Ping was taken care of easily. But for Ming Dynasty, Yu Qian's vindication was to deny the idea of ​​seizing the door from Yingzhong.

He made many mistakes and vindicated civil servants, so he gained the support of a group of veterans and demoted courtiers in Nanjing. In this regard, Zhang Zijun unknowingly stood on the side of the Jiangnan literati and was currently the spokesperson who could speak out in the court.

There are no idle workers in the ironmaking plant, and the construction progress has been improved a lot, especially in the construction and utilization of water basins. The craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty were obviously more skilled. With power, they had the means to blow the steelmaking blast furnaces and converters.

Perhaps the most important thing is that the soil lathe in Zhang Zijun's mind also has a steady stream of power.

It is the mother of industry. Although it has a single and simple function and is made entirely of wood, it is enough to be able to rotate in one direction. This can greatly improve the sealing performance between the sub-cannon and the main cannon of the French cannon. However,

Don't underestimate this. Improving the sealing performance will directly increase the range and increase the lethality.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty basically used the mud sand casting method to make cannons, which is to use pig iron to cast and shape, and then polish it after cooling. This process is obviously not accurate enough in key parts, and the pig iron is fragile, not strong enough, and there are many fine impurities in it.

In order to prevent the barrel from exploding easily, the barrel is often made very thick, which directly increases the weight and the volume.

Although Zhang Zijun has never learned any professional knowledge in metallurgy, as a time traveler, this is all basic common sense. A junior high school student's physical knowledge can become a technical master, but at this time, it has become a profound and inscrutable knowledge.

After testing, this is a matter of vision. For example, Zhang Zijun clearly understands that in order to improve the strength of iron, he must turn pig iron into mature iron, and then turn the cooked iron into iron.

Iron carburizes and turns into steel. For another example, if you want to raise the temperature, you must have enough oxygen. We have seen a lot of large industries, large factories, and large constructions. At present, a small workshop-type ironmaking is simply not possible.

I ignored it and focused on how to process precision parts. This single-function wooden frame Ming Dynasty version of the "machine tool" came into being.

In such an era where "the sky is round and the earth is round", many geographical common sense often become anomalies that are difficult to understand, and much daily health knowledge has become an insurmountable gap. Every year's natural and man-made disasters plus plagues have become huge disasters. Zhang Zijun

I could only watch all this silently.

A lunar eclipse was a big deal in ancient times. It can be said that Li Xian was a representative figure of Confucianism at this time. He wrote to Zhu Jianshen to advise Zhu Jianshen to insist on "respecting oneself to cultivate one's character, being upright to control one's subordinates, being firm in deciding matters, and being clear in observing subtleties."

" to eliminate natural disasters.

In May of the same year, heavy rain and hail fell, and strong winds blew away tiles and downed trees on the outskirts of the altar. Li Xian said: "The power of heaven is awesome. Your Majesty should be soberly aware that you should not get close to ministers who are close to you. You should respect and trust those who are experienced.

Ministers, discuss state affairs together.

Use these celestial phenomena to persuade Zhu Jianshen not to listen to or believe Concubine Wan Guishen.

A person's vision is really important. People who are extremely poor cannot imagine how wealthy people live. For ancient people, they cannot imagine how people will live five hundred years later. In Zhang Zijun's opinion, this

Everyone at that time, including myself, was looking for it all day long.

Just like in the animal world, this is a requirement of biological instinct, which is still in the primary stage of the species. Although he has climbed up to the upper class and solved the material living conditions of not starving, in order to find food, Tatar

Isn’t it just instinct for the Tartars to keep invading south?

In the second year of Chenghua, Li Xian formally petitioned to conquer the Hetao Tatars. Yang Xin, the chief military officer guarding Datong, Zhangwu Bo, was familiar with the geographical location and recalled him back to Beijing for negotiation. He then summoned Yang Xin back to Beijing and replaced him with Xiu Wu Bo Shen Yu.

On June 13, Emperor Xianzong ordered Yang Xin to wear the seal of General Pinglu and serve as a general officer. He commanded the capital camp to have 10,000 troops, 12,500 horses, 100 cannons, 1,000 spears, and 5,000 Datong cavalry infantry.

The Xuanfu cavalry of 3,000 and the Ningxia cavalry of 2,000 went to the Yansui border to guard the general soldiers and other officers to suppress the bandits. They also ordered the governor to come with him.

It is known that Zhao Shengchong is the deputy commander-in-chief, the military governor Zhan Qingchong is the staff general, and the military commander and Qinjie are guarding Chaigou Fort and Huai'an. The department commander Xu Ningchong is the guerrilla general, and the eunuch Pei Dang is ordered to supervise military affairs. The right young eunuch Liao Heng

Supervise the sharp guns, send another member of the household department to deal with food and grass, and send a member of the imperial censor to ban the contract and punish the merits.

Zhang Zijun knew that such a conquest was of little use and would waste people and money. But for Zhu Jianshen, whether to conscript or not was the second priority. First, he made his attitude clear. It's not that I didn't want to come back to such an important place as the Hetao, and I had already conquered it.

Regarding the guards of the iron smelting plant, Zhang Zijun submitted a letter asking the court to allow him to recruit a hundred soldiers. As a result, the Ministry of War directly allocated 3,000 soldiers from the three camps of the Forbidden Army in Kyoto. Zhang Zijun went to the Minister of War, Wang Fu, and said: "There is no need for so many soldiers."

Because he is just a guard in the iron-making workshop, so many people are difficult to manage." But Wang Fu was so angry that he trembled and almost choked to death without a mouthful of old phlegm.

Wang Fu said: "Jingyi, you are very smart in some places, but in some places you really don't understand or you are just pretending not to understand. Li Xian and Li Ge have gone home to bury their father, so I will teach you for him. Three thousand

There aren't many soldiers, so you don't have to worry about these three thousand soldiers.

, the Ministry of War distributes food, grass, salary, and money on time every month. Among these three thousand people, I have carefully selected them for you. They are all descendants of the generals in the capital and border areas. If you can get along well with the battalion officers, you will be able to help in the future...

"

Zhang Zijun became even more uneasy when he heard this. Is this man doing good for me? Why does it sound like he has trouble with me?

Zhang Zijun patiently listened to Wang Fu's words of "care" and replied: "Oh, my good Lord, this is absolutely impossible. What the ironworks need are workers, and they don't need so many guards."

, only a few are currently working on it.

Hundreds of people, so many Imperial Guardsmen are out of proportion. The Emperor has said that from now on, Zhang Aiqing will appoint personnel to be stationed in the iron factory. The matter has been settled. Tomorrow I will go to the barracks to select one hundred people, and I hope your lord will make it happen."

Wang Fu's face turned pale with anger and he shouted: "Zhang Zijun, I can't follow my good advice. Let me tell you frankly. This matter was not decided by my own officer. It was selected by the Ministry of War in conjunction with the admiral of the capital camp. There is no need to discuss it. Hmph,

If you have the ability, go and tell His Majesty."

Zhang Zijun thought, isn't the admiral of the Beijing camp the eunuch Wang Zhi? This is the first time Zhu Jianshen has allowed an internal minister to take charge of the forbidden brigade, and his method is bad. The little emperor is worried about everything and always wants to get involved and sit in the ironworks.

Eunuch, then don't do anything. No, you have to explain this to that little brat.

After the morning court session the next day, Zhang Zijun stayed after requesting an audience with the emperor and entered the side hall to wait. After a while, he saw Zhu Jianshen coming to the side hall surrounded by a group of officials and maids, and said: "Zhang Aiqing does not need to be polite.

Just tell me whatever it is."

Zhu Jianshen thought that Zhang Zijun came privately to ask for money for the ironworks, but Zhang Zijun had already thought about it. He would do as much money as he had, and told Zhao Rong, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, that if the money was not in place, the cannon would not be built.

Come out, so Zhao Rong can give it to him or not, or how much he gives, but Zhang Zijun will not push him. In Zhang Zijun's words: "My lord, I am well aware of the difficulties of the court. It doesn't matter if the money allocated to the ironworks cannot be used.

none

Unless the ironworks are shut down, the only way to scrap a blast furnace is to build a new one when the money comes in." Isn't it a joke that a kid doesn't feel sorry for selling his land? Building a blast furnace has already been spent.

After getting 10,000 taels of silver, why don't we need another 10,000 taels to build a new one? So Zhang Zijun never urged, but the Ministry of Industry tried every means to get the silver to the ironworks. Now Zhao Rong was like a pirate ship, and it was already too late to think about it.

So when Zhu Jianshen saw Zhang Zijun, his first reaction was money. Two days ago, the Ministry of Works came to tell me that the Ministry of Accounts should allocate some money to the Ministry of Works. Why is it that Zhang Zijun is now the lobbyist today?

Zhang Zijun still knelt down and bowed. Although it was annoying, it was necessary and said: "Your Majesty, I have done this for you. You don't need to send internal officials to guard the ironworks, nor do you need to use 3,000 imperial troops to guard a place with only more than 300 craftsmen."

I only need a hundred people to guard our workshop. I already have a candidate for these one hundred people, so please give me your permission."

Zhu Jianshen frowned and said, "Wang Zhilai told me about this, and I agreed to it. But now it's very difficult to take it back. So let's reduce the troops to a thousand and let you choose." That's all.

Now, since the emperor is in a dilemma, I can't continue what I'm going to say next. The reduction from three thousand to one thousand is a concession from the emperor, so what else can I say?

Zhang Zijun said politely: "I excuse myself." As soon as he turned around, he heard the sound of the imperial concubine arriving from the door, so Zhang Zijun could only wait for the imperial concubine to come in first before he could go out.

As soon as Zhang Zijun saw the visitor, he knew it was Concubine Wan Gui. Concubine Wan Gui also saw Zhang Zijun. Zhang Zijun quickly saluted and said: "I see you, Concubine Wan, and I will take my leave."
