Juyang Military Academy is Ding Kui's private property and has nothing to do with the Commander-in-Chief's Office. Shaodian insists on getting Ding Kui's permission if he wants to copy the gourd. Of course, if Ding Kui is nothing, Prince Zhongwang can ignore him.
"Your Highness can decide the ownership of a piece of land?" Ding Kui was surprised when he heard this.
Although the state pastor has great power, he only governs the local area on behalf of the kingdom. He cannot touch the territory that belongs to the nobility, and he has no right to privatize the territory that belongs to the kingdom, at least it cannot be done according to the kingdom's code.
"Hahaha." Shao Dianjian laughed and glanced at the side secretly.
Jiang Qi stood up immediately and said, "Go down and see if the rocket car is coming? You two adults, sit down for a moment."
"That's fine." Shao Dianjian nodded and watched the Zhenjiang County Sheriff go downstairs.
"Ordinary people cannot privately occupy the kingdom's land, but you are not an ordinary person, and the eldest princess cannot take it lightly. If nothing else happens, she will be the heir of the Guardian Lord. No one can touch your inheritance for at least two hundred years."
When everyone else left, Shao Dianjian did not hide anything and made his words clear directly.
"The large-scale training of mid-level officers will definitely touch the interests of some people. It's okay during the war, but I'm afraid there will be trouble after the kingdom returns to stability." Ding Kui told the truth.
People who come out of the military academy bear the mark of Ding Kui. Even if they come from other families, if they openly oppose Ding Kui, they will be regarded as traitors and be despised by the soldiers. This is a tradition in the military.
Shao Dianjian shook his head slightly and said: "No one else can do this, only your Ding family can do it. The Ding family has been in charge of the general staff for so many years and has already surpassed other families.
If there is trouble in the future, it will be at a low level. You don’t have to take care of everything. Let the people below solve it on their own. Whether you win or lose will not affect your status."
He has been in a high position for many years and has learned the art of being an official. Now he is passing on his experience to Ding Kui.
"Haha, Kui has learned a lesson." Ding Kui bowed his hands in thanks, "Your Highness has an order, and Kui dare not resign. Kui will arrange the branch school as soon as possible."
It is a good thing for Juyang Military Academy to establish a branch, and Zhennan City is also an excellent choice. Ding Kui has a plan in mind, and wooing Shao Dianjian will also be conducive to future counter-insurgency operations.
Woo, woo, woo, a low whistle sounded in the distance.
"Here we come!" Ding stood up immediately and walked to the railing. "The pit signal sounded, and the rocket car is about to brake and slow down."
Sure enough, Ding Cai put down his horn and stared ahead with all his concentration.
There is a row of red flags in the predetermined area. When the front of the train reaches the red flag, the "driver" has to pull the brake lever to reduce the train's speed to a safe range.
There are speed benchmarks on both sides of the track in the pit area for drivers to use to calculate speed. After two days of training, Ding Cai barely mastered the speed measurement skills.
Creaking, there was a harsh noise under the carriage, and the soldiers tied to the seats could not cover their ears, but began to untie their ropes.
In fact, after the acceleration is completed, the gravitational acceleration of the rocket car has disappeared, and the passengers on the car can be untied. However, because the speed of the car is still very fast, in order to prevent rollover accidents, the riding rules still stipulate that the passengers should not be untied until they start to enter the station.
"Is this a magical product?" Shao Dianjian had already seen the rocket car in the distance, and Jiang Qi also climbed up to the top floor again and stood behind the two of them.
Rocket cars are supposed to be industrial products, but Ding Kui is too lazy to explain too much, not to mention that manufacturing rail cars in this world does require the help of magical civilization.
Qing Yangzi, the new generation of craftsman god, all worshiped him as their teacher. He said that the rail car is a product of magic, and no one in the world can refute it.
"Yes! Although we are born with the blood of the God of War, we have to admit that the magical world is magnificent, and the God of War is worthy of being the comrade of the God of War." Ding Kui used the topic to sing praises to the world's top boss.
If a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it. If it is higher than others, the crowd will reject it. With his current strength, the more low-key the better.
The green flag flashed on the watchtower of the station. Ding Cai released the brake lever and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Now the rocket car is slowly driving towards the terminal platform. When the whole train enters the platform area, he will pull the brakes fully and the train will stop steadily.
At this moment, he felt that his face was burning, so he raised his head and met Ding Kui's eyes.
Although the distance was still relatively far, he could clearly see the satisfied smile on Ding Kui's face.
"Please rest assured, sir!" Ding Cai couldn't help but sit up straight and salute.
If he stood up, he would lose sight of Ding Kui.
Ding Kui couldn't hear the voice, but he could see the mouth shape clearly. He laughed and cursed in his heart: What a talented dog, well done!
The more than 100-meter-long train stopped steadily on the platform. Captain Ding Cai took the lead in carrying the train under the military flag and blew the brass whistle to gather his subordinates...
Shao Dianjian's eyes followed the flag of the Eighth Army.
"As expected of the Eighth Army! Although I don't know how it feels to sit on a rocket car, but looking at the speed at which they got off the car and assembled, no one made any unnecessary movements during the whole process. Looking at the entire army, which unit can do this?
?”
In the past two years, he has seen many armies, including regular armies, local armies, and so-called elite ace armies. He has his own experience in distinguishing the strengths and weaknesses of an army.
"It's not bad, I'm a little excited, the ground is about to be dug out by them." Ding Kui couldn't brag about his direct descendants.
"Haha, the general is too demanding." Jiang Qi said with a smile, "They know you are working hard here. Even if they really trample the platform into a hole, I will personally make up for it."
"It's a good thing to be excited in front of the coach. In the future, when the coach gives an order on the battlefield, the morale of the soldiers will be used! Come here."
"Here!" Two guards quickly ran up from downstairs.
"Command, the vanguard of the Eighth Army will receive one hundred gold each."
Zhou Mu is Zhou Mu, and he is rewarded with 100,000 gold coins with just one mouthful.
"Hahaha! I will thank the prince on their behalf."
…
After the troops left, the rocket car named "Western Harbor Crossing No. 1" was pulled into the garage by oxen, and Ding Kui led Shao Dianjian and Jiang Qi to inspect it.
"Now the craftsmen have to check the wear and tear of the train. If any parts do not meet the safety standards, they have to be replaced. Then the rocket can be reinstalled and then it can be pulled to the departure platform." Ding Kui introduced as he walked.
Everything Shaodianjian saw felt new. Fortunately, Ding Kui was beside him to answer his questions in detail.
Jiang Qi followed behind without saying a word. It didn't matter whether the railway car belonged to the Jiang family or not, as long as the railway passed through Zhenjiang County and had a station.
Almost every aristocratic lord understands the principle of connecting roads and making money, and since the advent of the rail car, it has received close attention from the lords.
It was just that there were not many people qualified to build railways, and it was far more difficult to imitate rail cars than to obtain authorization to use them, so the lords had to wait patiently.
Only railcars traveling across the country can achieve maximum benefits, and the lords always have something to look forward to.
After inspecting the depot, Shaodianjian asked again when leaving: "Why do we need to set up four sets of trains running in opposite directions? Isn't two sets of trains enough?"
