Chapter 987
"What is the distance?" Zhao Xu smashed his mouth and asked a question he was more concerned about. But seeing Zhao Ji stretched out his hand and gestured a number.
"Eighty feet?"
"Yes, eighty feet away, and I later found that one of the values ​​I calculated was incorrect. After adjustment, the second test shot was hit on the indicated bounce point."
After hearing this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but take a breath. Eighty feet away, that was beyond the attack range of most long-range weapons in the world. At such a distance, the distance can be aimed...
Zhao Xu suddenly opened a picture in his mind. A Liao general stood on the top of the city and pointed. The Song army soldiers here took paper and pen and wrote there for a long time and reported a data.
Then the Song army soldiers adjusted the angle and height based on this series of data. Then, a stone bullet weighing 156 kilograms flew over an eighty-foot distance and directly smashed the Liao army commander into the city wall, smashing it into a pile of flesh-and-blooded and flesh-and-blooded mud.
Damn, this is too fucking awesome, right? Zhao Xu, who had been awake for a long time, couldn't help but look at it a few more times. Unfortunately, he had no arithmetic geometric foundation and could not understand the formulas and graphics that made him dizzy.
"These things must be difficult to learn, right?" Zhao Xu looked at these things, tapped his fingers gently on the desk, and asked Zhao Ji.
"In fact, these things are the most difficult to get started at the beginning. Once you can enter the door, you will find that although there are countless changes inside, they are always inseparable from it."
"However, now I can only learn about these superficial knowledge, and there is still a lot of knowledge. With my current knowledge reserves, I am simply afraid..."
"I'm afraid? Haven't you said before that you will never leave any changes?" Emperor Zhao Xu asked curiously.
"Because what I have learned from my husband so far is just the most superficial things in algebraic geometry. Just understanding these formulas and principles has cost me more than half a year. Now I can just apply it roughly in reality..."
"According to your opinion, Wang Wushan's attainments in this area are much deeper than you, right?" Zhao Xu touched his chin. Well, he didn't know which expression to use to describe his mood at this moment.
"This is naturally. Every time I encounter a problem, I write to my husband. The teacher only needs a few words to resolve my confusion and make me deeply benefit. Such a skill is probably outstanding among all the teachers in the world."
"And this knowledge can be widely used in our military weapon prison. Unfortunately, my knowledge is too shallow and it is difficult to apply what I have learned. Alas, I really hope that I can have the opportunity to study with my husband for a while, and I believe it will definitely help me to a higher level."
Seeing Zhao Ji's face full of regrets and expectations, the emperor Zhao Xu couldn't help but spread his hands helplessly. "Shiyilang, this brother is really unable to help you. If you leave, who can take over the burden of military weapon supervision? Moreover, a lot of your master's efforts are here, you are leaving..."
"That's true. By the way, Your Majesty, when will the sir be back to Beijing?" Zhao Ji nodded helplessly and asked with concern.
"It's hard to say this, but at least this year and next two years, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back. After all, I have occupied the six states and I still need his pillar minister to manage it for me." Emperor Zhao Xu shook his head helplessly.
Not to mention Zhao Ji, he himself hopes that Wang Yang can return to the capital as soon as possible. Unfortunately, the development plan of the three prefectures of Yan, You and Hong has just begun.
At that time, the development and construction of the three states of Yin, Shi and Long also require him to provide guidance from the side, so he will not be able to come back in a short period of time.
"So that's the case, state affairs should be the priority. Although letters are a little troublesome, at least these letters can be left as materials to read at any time." Zhao Ji could only comfort himself in this way.
"By the way, haven't you said you have made a lot of achievements during this period? Brother Wei happened to have free time to come here today. How about you take Brother Wei to take him to visit?"
"Now most workshops have been moved to the small town you ordered to build outside the city. There are only some more important and more confidential workshops left here. I will take you to take a look."
When the emperor wanted to come over to check the achievements he had made during this period, Zhao Ji naturally wanted to do so. He immediately put aside his worries and put on thick clothes and fur, and then led the emperor to the military weapon supervision workshop.
Previously, after Wang Yang's reminder and warning, the emperor also realized that the Song Dynasty could now be ahead of other countries in terms of weapons and equipment, which would be equivalent to gaining a leading position in the military.
Therefore, in a valley dozens of miles south of Bianliang City, people were ordered to build an inconspicuous small city, and many workshops that needed to be kept confidential were moved there.
The most core, the more confidential ones, were left in the original military weapon supervision office. However, due to the emergence of various new cold weapons in the Song Dynasty, although there are many fewer people here than in the past, the workshop is getting more and more detailed.
Zhao Xu followed Zhao Ji's footsteps and first checked the core components production department of Yuanyou stone thrower. There were only more than a dozen skilled craftsmen here, but the parts they needed to process were piled up in the whole room.
Seeing Zhao Xu looking at these parts that had been made and applied grease to prevent rust, Zhao Ji next to him introduced in a low voice.
"...and they are not subordinate to each other, each of them is responsible for their own parts. Two craftsmen are responsible for the processing of each part. In this way, even if we really have a detailed work to bribe our craftsman, it is impossible for him to completely restore the core components of the Yuanyou stone thrower..."
"It's indeed a good law, what about the situation in the Gunpowder Bureau?"
Zhao Xu asked, Zhao Ji answered. Zhao Xu, who was very excited, wandered around the various workshops in the military weapon prison for almost an hour, and then he returned to the office with Zhao Ji with an unfulfilled desire.
Sitting next to the iron stove, feeling the warm heat and sipping the steaming fragrant tea, Zhao Xu couldn't help but sigh with satisfaction. "I have heard that Shiyilang, you said so much, really gained a lot of knowledge. I didn't expect that the military weapon surveillance has become so well-organized under your plan, which is a great achievement."
"Thank you for the praise from the officials. In fact, it is more of a merit. If you don't have the advice of your husband, with your ability, how could you do such a thing?" Zhao Ji smiled embarrassedly.
