reincarnated as king

Bei Gongdi originally wanted to set up another department in charge of education in addition to the six departments, but if this is the case, the Ministry of Rites, which is mainly responsible for scientific examination education, the Hanlin Academy, which is mainly responsible for cultivating classics, and the Guozijian, which is mainly responsible for official studies, will have to be dismantled and reorganized, which will be very troublesome. .In contrast, it is better to establish departments based on the original status and classification. For example, the Ministry of Rites established the Department of Education Fund, and the Department of Scientific Examination and Purification of Officials (the original liberal arts scholars were temporarily transferred from the Ministry of Rites).Order the Imperial Academy to set up inspection points in prefecture and county schools, and send officials to supervise the quality of free school education in one place.The Guozijian set up a lecturer union. However, the lecturer assessment is different from participating in the imperial examination, and the candidates need to pay the examination fee. Although it is not expensive, it can try to cover the cost of presiding over the examination.

In fact, due to the underdeveloped inland transportation in this era, the population flow in most areas of Dajin was very small, resulting in serious collusion between local factions in the officialdom, the most obvious being the confrontation between the North and the South.Therefore, as a parent official of one party, he still attaches great importance to the quality of local education. After all, if he comes from a fellow villager, he will have more connections in the officialdom. Unless it is those who are in a daze, who will not plan for the future.

After the implementation of the one whip method, the agricultural tax has been established, and the clean government storm is used to clean up the government. In addition, the Youyi system and the free school that may encounter resistance have been established. Bei Gongdi thinks that the next day will be much easier. But in fact it is not.

Originally thought that after a one-year running-in period, both the monarch and his ministers should be familiar with each other's handling habits. Next, he needs to implement policies, and he only needs to discuss the outline with his ministers in a small area.

In Bei Gongdi's vision, the details of those reforms were discussed in detail by the relevant officials of the six ministries and the Wenyuange University scholar, and the results were reported after conclusions were drawn.If the detailed rules are basically correct, Bei Gongdi will issue an order to implement it, and if he thinks it is inappropriate, he will sign his opinion, and then let the officials discuss it again.

However, it was probably because Bei Gong Di was too gentle after he ascended the throne, and the opinions of civil officials were not completely obedient to the instructions. Many detailed rules after the second round of discussions were still not fundamental when they returned to Bei Gong Di. Sexual changes——'Administrative and effective' Bei Gongdi didn't see it, but got to know a group of stubborn officials.

In the second case, Bei Gongdi had no choice but to call the relevant officials into Jingxin Hall to discuss together.

Under the age gap, Bei Gongdi often needs to spend a lot of words to get officials to understand and agree with his opinions.Later, Bei Gongdi even had a headache and asked Fang Jingxuan and Yang Zirong to do it for him. One of them can understand his own thoughts, and the other is a good hand at finding self-interested words from the "ancient cloud".But even so, it is still unavoidable that Bei Gongdi often has the urge to order one or some officials who dare to refute to be dragged down to beat the [-]th board. When he is most annoyed, he even wishes to wipe the opponents off the face of the earth.However, Bei Gongdi did not do this after all.

Bei Gongdi's restraint is not to cultivate the soil of democracy. He does not think that the democratic system has absolute advantages, and he will not insist on implementing the democratic system prematurely in the era of the supremacy of the monarchy.This is because, although Bei Gongdi thinks he is well-planned, he can make fewer mistakes after all by brainstorming, and in order to prevent the court from becoming completely one-sided, which eventually leads to his own serious mistakes, Bei Gongdi can only continue to maintain the "benevolent king" 'image.

On this day, Bei Gongdi summoned the Minister of the Ministry of War and the Secret Envoy of the Privy Council to Jingxin Palace. Song Li and Marquis Bai Feng of Changping were both sitting on the low couch in serious condition. Results - improved firearms, muskets.

Originally, apart from a cavalry team that could be called the number one combat force in the Jin Dynasty, Bei Gongdi also had a firearms battalion, which was specially used to restrain the cavalry of the nomadic Beidi people.And this firearms battalion is equipped with a weapon called a firecracker.

However, it takes a long time to load, aim, and design using a firecracker. Even skilled soldiers can only complete one shot.On the ever-changing battlefield, the firearms battalion can only be used as a surprise soldier, not the main force of the battle.

Bei Gongdi knows that improving firearms is a matter of huge investment and long-term results, but time waits for no one.On the same timeline, another continent has transitioned to the era of hot weapons. However, if you don’t take measures to change the military’s attitude towards light weapons, 300 years later, the long-distance troops on that continent will still fight over, and history will repeat itself. , how can Bei Gongdi be reconciled!

The Ministry of War and the Privy Council already disliked each other, and Song Li and Bai Feng were old Yan Wang, who had been dirty since they were in Yanjing.But when discussing the business, in front of Bei Gongdi, the two did not dare to be presumptuous, and they barely managed not to glare at each other.After appeasement, Bei Gongdi was about to bring the conversation to the point when Zuo Chang suddenly entered Jingxin Hall and said to Bei Gongdi, "Your Majesty, Marquis Wei Song of Wu'an is seeking to see you outside."

Bei Gongdi was startled, and said, "Xuan."

Hearing this, Bai Feng gave Song Li a sidelong glance, with the intention of being proud and provocative.Song Li sneered silently, and made mouth movements for Bai Feng to see: "...reckless bastard, what's the point of having more..."

Bai Feng was so angry that he was about to shoot up, but Song Li turned his head away and didn't look at him anymore.

Wei Song entered the hall, bowed and knelt down, met with Bai Feng and Song Li again, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the official list of martial arts has been released, please have a look at it, and I will publish the list after noon."

Bei Gongdi suddenly remembered that he had told him that if the result of the martial arts examination was released, Wei Song, who was the chief examiner of the martial arts department, would report it to the palace immediately.Bei Gongdi immediately signaled Zuo Chang to take the roster handed over by Wei Song, and opened it for a look.

No.1 champion Zhou Yingping from Qiuning County, Duyuan Prefecture

No.2 No. [-] Murong De Jingshi Mansion Tianji County

No.3 Tanhua Qiuyuan from Qixiang County, Jiunan Prefecture, Yuzhou

……

Bei Gongdi was taken aback for a moment, Qiu Yuan turned out to be just a prostitute, but he didn't make friends with Zhou Ying that day, but he won a martial arts champion.I don't know whether it's because people don't like their appearance, or the army likes Zhou Ying's appearance - after all, although Murong De is an extraordinary soldier, his appearance is feminine, and he is suspected of being the king of Lanling in the Xuan Dynasty; while Qiu Yuan is quite handsome, but he is not tall The appearance of a reckless man with a ruler.Thinking of this, Bei Gongdi couldn't help laughing.

As for the issue of Murong De being in Murong Yu's five uniforms, in fact, even if Fang Jingxuan did not recommend him, Bei Gongdi would deliberately issue a kindness edict to allow some descendants of Wenxi's old generals to enter the martial arts directly to show his support A lot of tolerance makes it easy for the world to return to one's heart.Wei Song was instructed by his brother-in-law Yang Zirong, so he naturally understood what His Majesty meant, so it was within Bei Gongdi's expectation that he did not deliberately suppress Murong De.

Bei Gongdi thought to himself, although Qiu Yuan could not win the double champion, Shuang Tanhua can always give it a try - this is an auspicious thing, and the chief examiner of Chunwei will not stop it in the coming year.

Bei Gongdi glanced at it casually, and changed one or two names of people who he recalled these days who performed well on the battlefield in later generations, and then returned the roster to Wei Song, who hurriedly said goodbye and was busy Go post the list.

After Wei Song left, Bei Gongdi lowered his head and saw Bai Feng and Song Li looking at him eagerly, and couldn't help being slightly taken aback.He frowned: "What's the matter? Let's talk about something."

"Your Majesty—" Bai Feng spoke first, "I dare to ask, what is the result of the martial arts exam?"

Bei Gongdi couldn't help laughing, it turned out that the two of them were so rare that they didn't confront each other in front of him, because they cared about this matter.Bei Gongdi raised his eyebrows, and said with a half smile but not a smile: "You want to know?"

Bai Feng's face flushed, Song Li couldn't help but glanced at it rather strangely, and took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, yes."

Bei Gongdi didn't whet their appetites, and said directly: "Zhou Yingdian in Pingzhou is the number one scholar in martial arts, Murongde in the capital is the second, and Qiu Yuan in Qingzhou is Tanhua."

Seeing the joy and sorrow on the faces of the two after hearing the list, Bei Gongdi thought for a moment, and couldn't help thinking of the information that the factory guard handed him a few days ago, which seemed to say "... It is suspected that some high-ranking officials will spend a lot of money..." Bei Gongdi's face turned cold: "Did you all bet?"

These words rang in the ears of the two like thunder, and immediately made the faces of the two change wildly, and they knelt down again.Bai Feng's eyeballs rolled slightly, and then he showed a flattering expression: "Your Majesty, I was just curious for a while, and I didn't do it on purpose. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Seeing that he was a majestic privy council in charge of Fu low and small, Bei Gongdi immediately lost the will to blame the two, and just snorted and said, "Do you two know what's wrong?"

"I shouldn't be participating in the gambling." Song Li bowed his head to admit his mistake, and slashed Bai Feng by his side. If it wasn't for this person's provocation, how could he have participated in this troublesome gambling in a moment of confusion.

"I shouldn't be gambling secretly." Bai Feng also lowered his head and said, staring back, he didn't drag you there, so why blame others.

"Oh, it turns out that Qing shouldn't be 'secretly' participating in gambling!" Bei Gongdi almost laughed out loud after being made such a fuss, and said sternly: "I'm not blaming the two of you for taking part in the gambling, but the two of you. Who is behind the banker?"

"Could it be—" Bai Feng's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Bei Gongdi with a look that he couldn't imagine.Song Li also recalled it, and looked at Bei Gongdi in surprise.

"What are you thinking about!" Bei Gongdi reprimanded angrily, "I'm not interested in the way of it. But think about it, if the banker of this casino is not sure of a huge profit, how can he open the market. Next year I will announce " The Gaming Law regulates lottery and gambling behaviors. Only seven commercial firms in Dajin can obtain legal rights, and the others are all illegal. Gambling among the people is prohibited... Do you understand?"

Both of them looked like they were listening carefully to Bei Gongdi's advice.

"Okay, what I want to tell Qing this time is another matter."

Bei Gongdi told them to go back to their seats, and said instead: "I'm going to move the Military Weapons Bureau to Yanjing and change its name to the Yanjing Military Weapons Bureau. I have several directions here, please listen to them and decide which ones will be next year." Hand it over to the Ordnance Bureau for research and development, and promote the national armored soldiers."

"The first one is the research and development and manufacture of the black fire" powder formula. Although this musket has greatly improved the problem of slow fire rate and slow reloading of firearms, it is still not satisfactory in terms of power. Therefore, I feel that improving gunpowder The formula and production process can be put on the agenda."

Bei Gongdi only remembered seeing the formula of black fire‖powder in his last life, which vaguely consisted of 75%, 10%, and 15% nitrate, sulfur, and charcoal.But he only remembered the name of "wet method" during the production process, and he didn't know anything about the specific production steps.

"The second is to improve the 'Zhentianlei'. I have obtained the ancient formula, but the subtleties can be considered. It is necessary to reduce the cost and improve the safety."

Middle-earth was the first area to use gunpowder. Apart from some ornamental items such as fireworks and firecrackers, it was also used in military affairs.The so-called shocking thunder is an iron shell explosive firearm.In the airtight pot-shaped and bowl-shaped iron shell, gunpowder is loaded, and the lead wire is left out.After being ignited, the gunpowder burns in the closed iron shell, producing high-pressure gas, which shatters the iron shell and injures people.This is a powerful firearm that can be thrown by hand or cannon.

Bei Gongdi's idea is to bundle firecrackers commonly used by folks for throwing with bare hands, and change the shell of Zhentianlei into a ceramic shell for throwing with special equipment.As for adding iron nails, broken glass, etc. to increase the lethality, someone from the Weapons Bureau will naturally do it well.

"Thirdly, improve the artillery. After the firecracker has been improved to become a musket, I think there are traces to improve the artillery. You can classify the required power and strike distance. Different artillery can be used for positional warfare, siege warfare, and naval warfare.

"Fourth, transform the swords and spears so that they can be used on muskets and increase the combat effectiveness of the firearms battalion."

This refers to the later bayonet, which is similar to the stirrup. Although this invention is simple, just like the stirrup made an immeasurable contribution to the development of cavalry, the appearance of the bayonet can play a non-negligible role in the development of firearms.A musketeer with a bayonet is actually equivalent to a spearman.Although this "gun" is shorter and weaker than regular spears, it is at least longer than the short weapons commonly used by Eastern cavalry, and it is enough to fight against cavalry sprinting.

"What do you think, Qing?" Bei Gongdi finished speaking, and then slightly raised his eyes to look at the two people who were thinking, waiting for them to make a decision.
