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

In this battle, the city defenders led by Zhao Ji were undoubtedly the biggest victors.

At the cost of only hundreds of casualties, more than [-] enemy soldiers were captured.

The number of wounded and killed enemy troops was as high as 25 or [-].

A victory on such a scale is truly rare in the world.

Before that, many generals under Song Jiang, Chao Gai, and Wu Yong thought that the steel guys that Zhao Jirang the Ministry of Industry had always made were of little use at all.

If it really comes to the official moment, their superior generals will have to take action in order to quell all wars.

But now?

The generals barely showed their faces, and the enemy's 30-strong army was wiped out in less than a day.

Such impressive results immediately shocked everyone present.

And Zhao Ji is not a stingy person.

I saw that this battle actually achieved such great results.

Dang even wanted to gather all the meritorious officials who participated in this battle and hold a celebration banquet to reward them.

In Zhao Ji's view, the generals who participated in this battle today certainly made meritorious deeds.

But the craftsmen in the Ministry of Works have made even greater contributions.

After all, without them working tirelessly day and night for hundreds of days.

How could there be today's scene of ten tanks and chariots crisscrossing the battlefield, invincible?

So here, Zhao Ji, as soon as he finished handling the trivial matters at hand, called for the chief executive, Eunuch Sheng.

He was ordered to call all the meritorious officials on today's battlefield and all officials from the Ministry of Industry to the Jinluan Hall as soon as possible.

Today, I want to stay with them there, stay drunk and bring out a large amount of gold and silver, and reward the meritorious ministers in front of all the courtiers.

Zhao Ji originally thought that once his oral instructions were conveyed, in less than an hour, all the meritorious ministers would gather in the Jinluan Palace.

But after receiving this order, Eunuch Sheng hurried back in less than half an hour.

And he also conveyed a piece of news to Zhao Ji that made him quite worried:

"For official report, Shen Kuo, the minister of the Ministry of Works, and all the officials of the Ministry of Works under his command, I'm afraid, I'm afraid they won't be able to attend the banquet for a while."

Zhao Ji frowned suddenly, and then stood up from the dragon chair:

"Is it possible that the officials from the Ministry of Industry have collapsed from exhaustion under such high-intensity work in recent days?"

As soon as Zhao Ji finished speaking, Eunuch Sheng, who was standing in front of Long An, quickly shook his head:

"In officialdom, it's not like this, it's not like this."

"Rather, the tanks and combat vehicles that are invincible on the battlefield today are experiencing problems to varying degrees at this time."

"And Shangshu Shen is afraid that the problems that arise in those steel chariots today will affect the wars in the future."

"So I quickly led my subordinates to renovate those tanks and chariots."

The look on Zhao Ji's face was somewhat helpless.

Originally, I wanted Eunuch Sheng to forcefully call over those officials from the Ministry of Industry.

But in my heart, I was very worried about what went wrong with those tanks and combat vehicles.

So at this time, he no longer gave instructions to Eunuch Sheng, but turned around, put on his coat, and hurried out of the study room and went straight to the Ministry of Industry.

When the officials from the Ministry of Industry saw Zhao Ji coming here in person, they couldn't help but put down their matters and went directly to greet him.

But just as the officials wanted to salute him, they were held up by Zhao Ji:

"My dear friends, don't be too polite."

"I came here now because I wanted to see what went wrong with those tanks and combat vehicles?"

"Secondly, I also want to invite all the heroes to come with me to the celebration banquet."

Standing at the front of the ministers of the Ministry of Industry was Shen Kuo, the minister of the Ministry of Industry.

At this time, Shen Kuo looked somewhat ashamed.

He stood there and pondered for a long time, and then said with helplessness:

"For the record, although the performance of those chariots on the battlefield today was pretty good."

"But after all, the production process was too hasty, so that those tanks and combat vehicles were put on the battlefield without sufficient training and testing."

"In this case, it is reasonable for many problems to arise."

"Guan, please come here and take a look."

As Shen Kuo spoke, he led Zhao Ji to a tank with the gun barrel missing:

"This tank fighting vehicle only fired a few shells from the barrel, and the barrel flew directly out."

"At first, Weichen thought that this situation occurred because the gun barrel was not stably connected to the inside of the tank."

"But after Wei Chen's various investigations, it was discovered that this hard barrel actually shattered during the process of firing the cannonball."

"It is expected that during the process of firing the cannonball, the tube wall is too hot and it is difficult to dissipate a certain amount of heat in a very short period of time."

"That's why the service life of this gun barrel is greatly reduced."

"If problems like this cannot be solved immediately in the future, then this batch of tanks and combat vehicles will definitely not be able to be used for a long time on the battlefield."

"There is also this tank and combat vehicle. Although its appearance is not damaged at all, when it rushes vertically on the battlefield, problems such as wheel slippage occur."

"And this one, just fired two or three rounds, and the entire barrel was blown into pieces."

"And the official from my Ministry of Industry also lost his life because of this..."

"Guan Jia, these problems are not big or small."

"If it cannot be completely solved within the next period of time..."

"Then these seemingly extremely powerful tanks and vehicles have become disposable weapons."

"If the number of enemies coming in the future is very small, then let's just deal with it."

"If the number is very large..."

"Then these tanks and chariots will no longer be able to exert their original power after being on the battlefield for long."

Zhao Ji nodded solemnly, and after thinking deeply for a long time, he asked:

"Shen Aiqing, how long will it take you and your officials to solve the above problems?"

Shen Kuo sighed with a complex expression, then raised his hand and gently patted the side panels of the tanks and chariots:

"It can range from a few days to a dozen or even dozens of days. It's possible."

"After all, after successfully solving the above problems, it will take a period of repeated testing before we can sit back and relax."
