Chapter 651 Two Troops
Wang Bu'e thought about it for a while and directly called the four people, including Wang Li, Minister of War, Wang Ling, Minister of Works, Wang Ji, and Peng Yue.
This is a matter that requires cooperation from multiple departments and cannot be solved by one person.
And after it is formed, who will take charge of the new troops?
Grab. This is also a big problem, especially those involved in the Academy of Sciences. Those who can enter the Academy of Sciences have certain advantages. Letting them leave the Academy of Sciences, not to mention whether they are willing or not, even the court is reluctant.
How to balance both sides and achieve the most ideal results is the key.
In a short while, the four of them came to the meeting hall one after another.
Wang Buye did not reminisce about the past and spoke directly: "I plan to form two new troops, one for the golden troops and the other for the road and bridge troops."
"Golden Force? Road and Bridge Force?" Wang Li was stunned. Why are these two troops so strange?
But in a blink of an eye, I saw the people who came to the convention hall. Since the emperor had just talked about the topic, it means that there were only so many people attending the meeting.
These people who came here obviously wanted to participate.
But what exactly do these two troops do?
Is it the gold-digging troops?
What is gold useful?
Instead of forming a single army to dig gold, it is better to dig iron and bronze. At least one is a hard resource and the other is a monetary resource. Which one is not more expensive than gold?
That's right, gold is not expensive these days, mainly because it has too few uses, and most of them are used by the emperor.
It doesn't work if he is used as currency and it doesn't charge it outside at all.
Unless everyone agrees and they are willing to accept it, they will agree on a price.
"The gold army is used to find various mines, gold mines, copper mines, iron mines, coal mines, and various minerals, known and unknown. As long as you have been to the place you have visited, you must check them and then record them statistically to prepare for the future. This army needs many professional personnel to operate, prospect, lead the way, and protect them!"
"The other unit is simple, mainly used to build some bridges and roads. Although there are people who can use it among the people, some things cannot be done by the people!" Wang Bue said bluntly.
"Your Majesty, the Golden Army is OK. This problem is not big, and it is relatively easy to form it. However, the officials of the Road and Bridge Army think there is no need to do it. According to the current model, the Ministry of Works will provide guidance from the Ministry of Works and provide people to build the construction. They will work when there are tasks and disband when there are no tasks. Once the troops are formed, the court will have to support them regardless of whether they have tasks or not, and there will be daily needs, and the logistics pressure will be quite large." Wang Li thought seriously and said.
Several others nodded in agreement.
Looking for various mines, whether for the present or for the future, there is no problem in forming such a force.
Anyway, I am doing this kind of thing now, but I just have to ask local governments to search in their jurisdiction and report it.
Now they were organized and the court would be under unified jurisdiction.
BxW. The advantage is that it is more professional, and there will definitely be more and more ores that can be found.
The disadvantage is that from the perspective of the national situation, the speed of mineral exploration will definitely be slow, because even if the golden troops are formed, it is impossible to look for minerals across the country at the same time, and the imperial court cannot afford to support so many people.
But for the road and bridge troops, there is really no need for this.
Anyway, in their opinion, it is not worth it.
Even if the personnel can save a little bit of food, drink, defecation, and military pay?
"No! No!" Just when everyone thought it was unnecessary, Wang Ji suddenly stood up.
People who say something bad are a little confused.
Wang Ling turned his head and looked at Wang Ji. If it weren't for the emperor here, Wang Ling would have to hammer him hard with this pretentious word.
Is Turtle son still good now?
How dare you play this with your father?
Looking at Wang Ling's threatening eyes, Wang Ji instantly fought a cold war and quickly shrank his neck and said, "The steaming car has a prototype, and the preliminary test results are pretty good. His Majesty ordered that the next step be to use the steaming car to develop a series of engineering vehicles, such as using the power of the steaming car, install a shovel in front, and push it flat to flatten the road."
"For example, changing the wheels into rollers and crushing them directly on the road surface will quickly compact the loose ground, which can save the complex process of turning over and frying the soil, and also save the time-consuming and laborious process."
"If everything goes well, the road and bridge troops equipped with new engineering equipment will be able to withstand the work efficiency of 1,000 people. In addition, there are also some bridge equipment being studied. No matter what equipment it is, it will not be possible to supply private ones in a short time. Even if it is supplied, the price will not be low, and there will not be many people who can afford it."
"So, it's quite appropriate to form a force to do this!" Wang Ji directly explained the reason.
As the head of the Academy of Sciences, no one knows better than him the projects currently underway in the Academy of Sciences and the progress of the research.
In the next one or two years, new equipment will definitely be put into use.
Even within a year, these things need to be verified in practice.
It is definitely the most appropriate to hand it over to the road and bridge troops to test the reliability of the equipment and provide improvement suggestions.
日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日日
When the Academy of Sciences was established, some ministers had quite a lot of opinions.
But what about now?
The power of the Academy of Sciences has gradually been reflected. Not to mention that new things appear every day, at least new things come out every month.
No matter whether he can use it for the time being, he will be able to use it sooner or later.
Of course, the Academy of Sciences is still in the exploration stage.
As of now, a vehicle research institute is obviously not enough, so after getting the project, Yue Shan accepted Wang Ji's suggestion and entrust some projects he had no time to take care of to other teams for centralized public relations.
This can greatly speed up the research and allow other teams to accumulate some valuable experience.
These are all experiences gradually summarized through the accumulation of time.
And it is being verified and improved step by step through practice.
"Yes, but not all. It was true in the early stage. These people were needed to test the reliability of the equipment. At the same time, these people were also needed to master these equipment. They could spread quickly through them. In addition, some sections of roads must be built by them. In the later stage, this road and bridge unit will be converted into a force specially built for the troops to build mountains and bridges, just like a big river in the north. This unit can build a bridge for the troops to pass through within half a day..."
