Chapter 1236 Katyusha!
Zhu Di didn't understand why Huang Shu was so determined toward the Juzhen. He actually doubted himself a little and couldn't help asking Huang Shu, "Do you think our Ming Dynasty is a little crazy now?"
Once upon a time, a country dared to fight on both sides of the north and the south?
The Ming Dynasty did it!
And they all won.
The wars between Indochina Peninsula and Mobei have almost always been fighting on both sides at the same time. The troops in the north and the south have never supported each other. They have all made great achievements and wealth on their own battlefields.
That's all.
Now the Western Expedition is about to be in Yilizhuli, this is a front-line war.
At dusk, ten thousand people were used to go to Nanyang under the excuse of the Times Group's business activities. Maybe they had to use strong ships and cannons to knock on the national door. This is also a front-line war?
However, Zhu Di actually wanted Yi Shiha to fight against the Jurchens in the north.
This is not crazy, what is it.
A war on the third line?!
There are several dynasties that can do such a thing. The key is that Zhu Di has made up the account in his mind. The national treasury and military strength can actually support the needs of these three-line wars!
It's simply unimaginable.
When Zhao Dunn heard this, he nodded slightly, "Our Ming Dynasty is a bit crazy now, but Caomin thinks it is normal. A powerful dynasty and a world overlord must have this ability and size. Not to mention the third-line battle now, when the Ming Dynasty truly stands on the top of the world in the future, we can even be stronger and crazier."
Germany back then was not the world overlord, and he dared to fight on multiple fronts, not to mention that the strength and status of the Ming Dynasty are far beyond the world environment in which Germany was located at that time.
Zhu Di suddenly became energetic, "I have the decree of heaven. Is this possible? Can the business be practiced?"
Dusk flatteredly: "From ancient times, only Your Majesty is the only one."
I secretly complained in my heart that this is really not something that you, Boss Zhu, can do it alone. If the trouble is not right, if Zhu Yunwen valued himself, this situation would still be possible.
But the chance is very slim. Zhu Yunwen values literature over military affairs, and he does not like external expansion as much as Zhu Di.
Zhu Di laughed loudly.
Because it was not too early, Zhu Di finished his work and simply left the dusk. The king and his minister had a detailed conversation about the future, mainly about the industry of Times Group.
At dusk, everything is full of words.
Finally, Zhu Di asked about several steel monsters on the propaganda column at the gate of Times Chemical Industry, especially the plane. He did not hide it at dusk. He said that this was the idea of the grass people, but it was a long way to go to make this plane. The first step was to use a steam engine as the power of the plane, but this limitation was too great and almost impossible, so it could only be an idea. The main thing is to develop an internal combustion engine. If it succeeds, it can achieve a qualitative leap.
Zhu Di was surprised and puzzled, "What is an internal combustion engine?"
What is an internal combustion engine?
This question was a bit puzzled by the dusk. To be honest, he did have no idea and had to say: "Internal combustion engines are a kind of machinery that uses black oil derivatives as fuel to provide power."
Zhu Di seems to understand but not, "So Times Chemical is actually mainly committed to the use and research and development of black oil?"
Dusk nodded, "It's only that at the moment."
Zhu Di thought for a while, "Will the Ministry of Industry build a corresponding chemical factory and gather national strength to build a faster?"
Huang Xu smiled and said, "Of course, you can actually increase your investment in this regard, not only black oil, but also a project, and the Military Arts Academy will invest a lot of money."
Zhu Di asked: "What project?"
Dusk laughed and said, "Gunpowder!"
Zhu Di thought, "What do you mean, there is still room for improvement in the ammunition of the Shenji Firearm?"
Xun laughed silently, "Your Majesty, there is more than just space. I personally think that the use of gunpowder in our Ming Dynasty is far from reaching the power it should have. Is it just a flowering bullet? No, gunpowder has even more crazier power. I think the peak state of gunpowder should be able to blow up half of the city wall in one shot."
Just missiles.
Zhu Di was dumbfounded, "One shot is half a city wall?"
This is simply unimaginable.
When the Ming Dynasty had such a crazy divine firearm, the war would be victorious in every battle. No army could resist such war weapons, and no country could withstand it.
The dusk nodded slightly, "Yes, but we may not be able to see such war weapons in our lifetime. It doesn't matter. As long as Your Majesty is determined, the people will do their best to their lives and leave a foundation for future generations. We must make my Daminger Lang the world's first nation to possess such war weapons. We must ensure that our Ming Dynasty's military and industrial level will always be ahead of the world by about a hundred years!"
Zhu Di understood the meaning of Dusk, "What do you mean is that your Times Group has no potential room for research and development of gunpowder?"
Dusk was speechless, "Your Majesty, Times Group has money and strength, but don't worry, let me Times Group do this? This is a powerful weapon of the country and needs to be controlled by the country. Therefore, although Times Group is studying firearms, it almost only studies flowering bullets and upgraded muskets. The main direction is machine guns - you should know this concept, and these things cannot be hidden from Dongchang and Jinyiwei."
Zhu Di nodded.
Of course, I know that when I learned that the Military Merit Research and Development Institute of Times Group and the Military Arts Institute cooperated to develop machine guns, Zhu Di was almost shocked when he saw the design drawings and renderings.
If this machine gun was developed, if the Ming Dynasty's heroes were equipped with a large number of equipment, if there was the magical cannon that bombed half of the city wall with one bullet...
Zhu Di dared not even imagine it.
If such a Ming Dynasty was combined with the Ming Navy composed of steel warships, it would be no exaggeration to say that the Ming Dynasty's heroes could be enemies of the entire world.
Of course, it will not be enemies of the entire world.
But with this strength.
Thinking of this, Zhu Di nodded, "Okay, then I will summon the Military Arts Academy to order Hong Jilai tomorrow, and ask the Ministry of Revenue to allocate funds to allow the Military Arts Academy to increase research on the performance improvement of gunpowder. However, you have many ideas, you can meet and communicate with Hong Jilai and tell him your ideas and development direction."
The dusk hunched, "Of course, when Caomin once reads history books with Soqiuna, Soqiuna discovered that rockets appeared in the Song Dynasty, but their power was simply unremarkable. She said that this idea was very interesting, so she had a missile idea. She would tell Hong Ji at that time, that's right, because this missile was proposed by Soqiuna, so if it was developed, it would be named Soqiuna. What does Your Majesty think?"
Not to mention, the idea of the missile was really proposed by Soqiuna.
It was shocked at dusk.
But I was too busy at that time and didn’t have the time to care about this matter. Now I have to focus on developing gunpowder, so I can start to think about this missile - it is not a missile.
