Reborn in the Water Margin as emperor, built tanks to level the world

After hearing these words, Master Li suddenly grinned:

His eyebrows were full of shyness.

And when he glanced at the face of his maid Yu'er, his water-clear eyes gradually showed a hint of cunning:

"Yu'er, tell the truth to your sister."

"The tricks you just mentioned have been practiced many times in your mind."

"I hate that I really don't have the opportunity to use that kind of solution to today's officials one by one?"

"Let me see, if a girl like you is given a chance, I'm afraid she will devote herself to the official family."

"You little girl, you are full of love, aren't you?"

Yu'er's pretty face was suddenly stunned.

Then he threw himself into the arms of his young lady with a shy face and kept acting coquettishly.

The two masters and servants were fighting and fighting, which relieved a lot of the bitterness and helplessness just now.

……

In recent days, Zhao Ji's life has been quite regular.

I went to court in the morning and stayed in the study room in the afternoon.

In the evening, I went to Liu Xiangning’s residence to study the relationship between life and ideals with her.

By the way, study the mission of nurturing the next generation.

As for Shen Kuo, he has been studying the gearbox issue for several days.

But so far, Zhao Ji has not been given any progress news.

This can't help but make Zhao Ji feel mixed emotions.

According to Zhao Ji's previous plan, only Shen Kuo could produce an adjustable-speed gearbox.

Then Zhao Ji can immediately guide the opponent to overcome the manufacturing problem of tanks and combat vehicles.

However, due to the uncertain factors of Cai Jing's faction blocking the way, Zhao Ji did not dare to take that step easily.

But if you just stay in the study room every day and dawdle.

Zhao Ji was also very upset in his heart.

After all, in more than a year, Dajin Army Horse will come over to kill them.

If by that time, the Song Dynasty led by Zhao Ji had not produced epoch-making weapons such as tanks and rifles.

Then history like the Jingkang Shame will be repeated in this land.

……

On this day, Zhao Ji was in the study room, repeatedly drawing designs for tanks and chariots.

While drawing, he deliberately removed all the artillery systems installed on the tanks and chariots.

Then I felt that if this tank combat vehicle was not equipped with an artillery system, it seemed to be equipped with four steam engines, which would be redundant.

So Zhao Ji, in the process of deleting, deleting, and revising, gradually changed the original design drawings of tanks and chariots into what they look like now.

But on Zhao Ji's design paper, there was a drawing of an iron armored vehicle that was only slightly larger than the carriage of this era.

This iron armored vehicle has very thin armor.

Its height is probably similar to the carriages of this period.

Because the overall mass is quite light, it can be driven freely by just installing a steam engine inside.

As for the driver sitting inside?

The four people riding on that large tank chariot suddenly changed to the current one person.

Because here, there is the blessing of a gearbox.

The driver sitting in the tank can completely adjust the positions of different gears through various joysticks, and ultimately achieve the purpose of accelerating and decelerating the entire armored vehicle.

Because this armored vehicle is not equipped with an artillery system.

Therefore, Zhao Ji very cleverly opened four shooting holes in the front, rear, left, and right windows.

According to Zhao Ji's idea, if the soldiers driving the chariots had crossbows in their hands.

It is completely possible to drive this kind of armored vehicle to a suitable shooting position, and then shoot outward with a crossbow.

Because of the protection of this kind of armored vehicle, even if the enemy's archers shoot at a high speed, it is extremely difficult to kill the soldiers hiding in the armored vehicle through archery skills.

And this kind of armored vehicle, with the blessing of a gearbox and a steam engine, is quite flexible and free whether it is moving forward or backward.

In this way, this kind of armored vehicle can be used as a light tank in combat.

Because this small armored vehicle does not need to be equipped with an artillery system.

So under the current circumstances, building it doesn't seem to be a problem.

And because there is no more sensitive artillery system, it is difficult for anyone in Cai Jing's faction to notice the existence of this object for a while.

It is more convenient for Zhao Ji to hide his own purpose.

At this moment, Zhao Ji was sitting on the dragon chair.

Looking at the small armored fighting vehicle just drawn on the desk.

On his face, a smile of relief could not help but appear.

Zhao Ji decided to make that kind of flexible gearbox once Shen Kuo got there.

He asked Shen Kuo to immediately study the detailed structure of this light armored tank.

Strive to produce this small armored fighting vehicle the size of a carriage, powered by a steam engine, in the shortest possible time.

To prepare for the future production of large tanks and armored combat vehicles equipped with artillery systems, we will accumulate R&D and manufacturing experience.

From the initial development and manufacturing of steam engine cylinders, to the later manufacturing of simple fans.

Manufacture of adjustable speed fans equipped with gearboxes.

Until Zhao Ji just drew this small armored fighting vehicle the size of a carriage, and then to the final heavy tank fighting vehicle equipped with an artillery system.

These things don't seem to be related.

But it is a process from simple to complex to manufacture heavy tanks and combat vehicles.

In Zhao Ji's view, only by practicing the first few steps to become familiar with them, understand them clearly, and accumulate enough experience.

Then when manufacturing heavy tanks and combat vehicles, they will be more comfortable and familiar.

When Zhao Ji finished drawing the drawing of the small armored fighting vehicle, he leaned lightly on the back of the chair behind him as if he was relieved.

When my eyes were slightly closed, what I was thinking in my mind was:

A few years later, the torrent of steel in the Song Dynasty was invincible and exhilarating.

On this day, after Zhao Ji had lunch in the palace, he went to the Chancellor's study room, propped his head on one arm, looked at the new shoots growing out of the window, and fell into a daze.

I recall that a few months ago, I traveled to the Song Dynasty without saying a word.

I don’t know if my gang of bad friends and my classmates still miss me.

Hey, that's all.

Even those boys all miss me.

What does this mean to me now?

Anyway, those guys will never be able to find me again.

Fortunately, in that world, I haven't got a girlfriend yet.

If not, then that woman wouldn’t be lovesick because of me?

When Zhao Ji thought of this, he smiled bitterly.
